Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. (1 Thess. 5:11)

Remarks of Vice President Pence at World Summit in Defense of Persecuted Christians: “This morning, on behalf of President Donald Trump, it was humbling to join people of faith from across the world at the first-ever World Summit in Defense of Persecuted Christians.

There, I reaffirmed the President’s commitment to defending Christians and, frankly, all who suffer for their beliefs across the wider world.  America was and is and ever will be that shining city on a hill where men and women of faith throughout our history have been able to walk and openly worship their faith in God to the glory of God.

The faith of those gathered at the World Summit inspired and humbled me. The reality is, across the wider world, the Christian faith is under siege.  Throughout the world, no people of faith today face greater hostility or hatred than the followers of Christ.  In more than 100 countries spread to every corner of the globe –- from Iran to Eritrea, Nigeria to North Korea –- over 215 million Christians confront intimidation, imprisonment, forced conversion, abuse, assault, or worse, for holding to the truths of the Gospel.  And nowhere is this onslaught against our faith more evident than in the very ancient land where Christianity was born.

President Trump sees these crimes for what they are: vile acts of persecution animated by hatred — hatred for the Gospel of Christ.  And so too does the President know those who perpetrate these crimes.  They are the embodiment of evil in our time and he calls them by name — radical Islamic terrorists.

The suffering of Christians in the Middle East has stirred America to act.  President Trump rightly said not long ago that — of the Christian church, “nobody has been treated worse in the Middle East.”  He’s made it clear that America will stand by followers of Christ in this hour of need.  Our administration is fully committed in bringing relief and comfort to believers not only across the Middle East but across the world.  This President knows the terrorists will not stop until we stop them.  And, under President Donald Trump, we will stop them.

Under President Donald Trump, America will continue to stand for religious freedom of all people, of all faiths, across the world.  And I believe that all God’s children, no matter their country or their creed, can know with confidence that God will continue to guide this nation, to play our unique role on behalf of freedom in the world.” (White House Blog .)

“Members of President Donald Trump’s cabinet are gathering for prayer weekly.

Vice President Mike Pence and eight cabinet secretaries sponsor the sessions, which occur weekly in Washington.

It’s led by the founder of Capitol Ministries, Ralph Drollinger, who started working on arranging the Bible study during the Trump team’s transition to the White House.

Sponsors include Vice President Pence; Secretaries Betsy DeVos, Ben Carson, Sonny Perdue, Rick Perry, Tom Price and Jeff Sessions; EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt and CIA Director Mike Pompeo.” (Excerpted from CBN News.)

It is so encouraging to read of the strong Christian message coming from the hearts of people of faith and vision. Had not my friend taken the trouble to forward to me this INTERSESSORS OF AMARICA mesages I would have missed this written confirmation of so much that I know to be of God’s work in the understanding of believer. At times in recent past I have felt alone and without shared support for Donald Trump and the way the Lod is using him to achieve great things that need to be changed in the lives of the American people.
I believe that in due time the Lord will put His Hand upon the ‘the Gun laws’, and these will be changed, and the unrighteousness in the dark corners of the administration will be progressively be cleared out. The Truth will set the People Free from the evil of lies spread by the spirit of Satan. God Bless Ameriac.

For you created my inmost been;you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of things came to be. As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in n your mother’s womb so you cannot understand the work of God, the maker of all things. Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. But even before I was born, God chose me andcalled me by his marvelous grace. In Jesus name!

I know that our God will empower our great leaders to relocate the United States embassy to Jerusalem, which will renew faith for people of every nationality.
Then through our faith God’s provisions for the earth will be received throughout the world.

I am praying for the Trump Administration, the Trump Family, the Mike Pence Family, and all those Christians who stand beside the President. I am so upset by the liberal media and the Democrats for trying to make the President’s life miserable. Our God is a mighty God, and He will calm the storm, or He will calm the storm in me, and other Christians. I pray for you and your administration every day, that God will give you strength and wisdom, and faith to believe that He is able to do all that He has promised in His Word. He will never leave you or forsake you. He will judge in all matters of lies brought against the President, and He will win. God bless you, Pres. Trump, and Mike Pence.

I am praying for President Trump and VP Pence that God’s peace would blanket them and the cabinet members. I speak to the “political storm” and like Jesus, I say, “peace be still !”

I pray that the mercy of God through Jesus Christ cover the White House and order is restored. I pray that the peace of God which passes all human understanding guard their hearts and their minds by Christ Jesus.

I command that the lying tongues be silenced! I pray that mercy triumphs over judgment and the love of God prevails over every meeting, hearing, inquiry and every piece of communication.

I pray for President Trump, Vice-President Pence, their families, all members of the cabinet and his administration, their families and the military continuously. I ask for the Lord to guide them and give them wisdom in every decision they make. I am very happy to hear that some of them get together to pray and ask for direction from the Lord. I know right now everything looks gloomy, but I also recognize that prayer is the most powerful tool the Lord gave us to face not only times of difficulty, but also times of prosperity. Please do not give up, there is remnant all over the world praying for you. I am writing from Panama, Panama and I know a lot of people who pray for the United States and our President. God bless you all!

Pres. Trump & V.P. Pence, you are a ray of sunshine in a very bleak, downtrodden nation. Millions of us are thrilled over your election! “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge HIM, and he shall direct thy paths.” (Prov. 3:5,6)

“…and who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” (Esther 4:14)

Mr. President and Mr. Vice President, you are in my prayers, daily. Our Father, surround our leaders with warrior angels, giving them divine protection. By your Holy Spirit, speak to their hearts, giving them your ways and means by which to lead our country out of the darkness which hovers over America.

Thank you for your willingness to share yourselves with us, and with our nation.

I am so encouraged to hear of the Christians in our government who are studying Scripture, praying and seeking the Lord in their own lives. May the Holy Spirit give you fresh wisdom and courage as you seek the Lord’s will on how to interact with others in the areas of government and make decisions for the United States of America. May the Lord bless you and keep you. May He make His face to shine upon you, may He strengthen and encourage you and give you His peace.

Jesus said: “The hour is coming and now is that all true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth:for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” …… And the wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound but cannot tells where it comes from or where it is going…..so is everyone that is born of the Spirit of God……. Sounds like “worship” is 24/7 and if Trump & Pence have a 24/7 job, quite possible so does every member of God’d family. So then it is not where you go, or a certain time, place and hour but rather a state of being….”And to this hour, the Father works and I have been working”—–sounds like full employment and OJT, so onward and upward, we are all in this together…..

My family and I pray the Lord will lead all those in the Trump administration to hold fast to the Lord’s principles and ways and to study His Word diligently to lead our country back to Him. Godspeed to all who are heeding His call and desire to change our government to mirror God’s plan for the United States and her people.

I pray that you all truly are leading how God wants you to. As a Christian I’ve been appalled by the attitude of different people .

We are to look out for the welfare of the people as Jesus did. I pray all in the government will see this as an opportunity to show what a CHRISTIAN is like.
Loving, merciful, humble .

I pray that God is at the center of all of your decisions.
May God convict your hearts if otherwise.

I pray this cabinet will lead by example so non believers will put their trust in God and not be a stumbling block on their way to Him.
Amen
