May God inspire and direct immigration and refugee policies in the U. S. Thank God for the good report from France that evangelical churches are growing with recent immigrants looking for help and hope. May God grow American churches in similar ways.
The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge, for the ears of the wise seek it out. (Pr 18:15)
“Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.” (Luke 10:36-37)
“The Trump administration has told the Supreme Court that a lower court ruling earlier this week altering an executive order on immigration would bring thousands more refugees into the county and requires the justices’ ‘immediate intervention,’ according to filing documents obtained early Saturday by Fox News.
The high court on Saturday gave the opposing parties in the case — state of Hawaii et al — until noon Tuesday to file responses to the Justice Department request. . . .
However, who is allowed into the United States is the focal point of the case, as Trump tries to limit in the influx of visitors as a means of national security, particularly keeping out terrorists.
Any immediate expansion of the refugee program will be on hold until the high court weighs in.”(Excerpted from Fox News, reporting by Joseph Weber.)
“The significant downturn in the number of illegal border crossers between the U.S. and Mexico is ‘nothing short of miraculous,’ National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd said on C-SPAN Monday.
‘As far as the Trump administration’s efforts on immigration, this is something they campaigned heavily on,’ he said. ‘At six months, where we are on meeting those promises, we are seeing nothing short of miraculous. If you look at the rhetoric that President Trump has given, it has caused a number of illegal border crossings to go down. We have never seen such a drop that we currently have.’”(Excerpted from Washington Examiner, reporting by Anna Giaritelli.)
Good news in France:
“Beneath the wave of jihadist attacks that threaten Europe is another wave, perhaps less discernible. New migrants who have lost everything, and see they have nowhere else to go, are finding their way into churches for the very first time. A small evangelical congregation I visited a year ago had about 10 families, but today after extending a welcome to arriving migrants, it has almost doubled in size, and sets aside rows of seats wired for translation in Farsi or Arabic. Out of Old Europe, a new Europe may grow.” (Excerpted from World News, reporting by Mindy Belz. Be encouraged by reading the whole article here.)

Lord, what about those that seek refuge and shelter. What about those who have been forced to leave their homes due to violence (no fault of their own). Would Jesus send them back to the wolves, to the abuse, to hopelessness. I understand the focus of government when it comes to finance and safety. God bless America. America has too many intelligent citizens to not be able to think of a solution to fill these gaps that need filling. Lord, You are our solution!
When a man’s ways please the Lord, He makes his enemies to be at peace with him. Proverbs 16:7
The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by the same spirit living within you. Romans 8:11
Wisdom will enter your heart and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
But there is a spirit in man, and the breath of the Almighty , gives them understanding.
The intelligent man is always open to new ideas. In fact, he looks for them. Proverbs 18:15
That the man of God may be competent, equipped of every good work.
The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forcescof evil spirits in the heavenly places.
I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.
Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?
The valleys will be filled, and the mountains and hills made level. The curves will be straightened, and the rough places made smooth. Luke 3:5
For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light. Luke 8:17
In Jesus name! Amen.
Dear Lord, our heart goes out to the ones who are displaced in this cruel world we currently live in, find a way Oh Lord, for them to be able to start again, somewhere, provide for their needs, deliver them from evil, and protect our country from anyone seeking our demise, find your solution to our immigration situation, have your way Oh Lord, amen & amen.
Almighty Father, Your word is forever settled. You establish law as a your tutor, for you abhor lawlessness. Thank you for increase in establishing the boundaries that protect this Your nation. Continuue to Hold back the enemies of America from access to her illegally. Lawlessnessness creates chaos and strife bringing every wicked thing. It is you who have established the order of law. Your law is good. Let us deal with those who have practiced lawlessness righteously. Let your Kingdom be opened to those without knowledge of your Salvation and goodness. Cause Your People to extend the good news of Jesus redemption to illegals. May the knowledge of truth lead those living outside the law into compliance with the law. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus Name!
Abba,
Thank you for showing us how to be kind so that we can demonstrate that to our brothers and sisters. Thank you for giving us protect and a leader who is wanting to keep the United States strong against the wishes of her enemies. In the name of Yeshua, I humbly ask for wisdom and divine amounts of discernment in all matters of immigration. May the policy makers be guided by the Ruach (holy spirit) as they reform the immigration policies. Thank you for all my friends who are here legally from foreign places and thank you for the plans you have for us as a nation and as a believing body.
Amen
May the Holy Trinity bestow its love, care and guidance on our Nation’s leaders, even those who fight this new Administration. We pray for greater understanding and protection of the President and his staffers as they negotiate the perilous waters of our Nation’s troubles. May antipathy and apathy diminish as Godliness inhabits those who would destroy us, and may we restore this Nation to its greatness.
As long as the Immigrants are here, pray for a Renaissance where the Muslims and the 40,000 + Chinese spies come to know Jesus first in American and then Europe & Australia.
Thank you for the update on illegal border crossers. Praise the Lord for his work with the border patrol and with the evangelical church in France! Thank you for keeping us informed on the answererd prayer.
