President Trump will begin his address to Congress tonight at 9 p.m. ET, and it will be streamed on several channels and sites online. With so many victories behind him and so many challenges yet to be solved, the President has much to discuss.
(The Center Square) ā President Donald Trump is set to address Congress Tuesday evening after nearly six weeks of breakneck pace in the White House.

Trump seemed to signal he is preparing an aggressive, forthright speech as he oversees a series of major policy changes and turmoil in the U.S. relationship with Ukraine.
“Tomorrow night will be big,” Trump wrote in all capital letters on Truth Social Monday. “I will tell it like it is.”
Since taking office, Trump has signed a flurry of executive orders, and he is likely to tout those during his speech Tuesday, from declaring a national energy emergency, announcing it is the official policy of the U.S. government that there are only two sexes to reinstating Remain in Mexico, a policy that requires asylum seekers to wait outside the U.S. for approval.
Trump’s administration has enacted so many policies so quickly that Democrats have struggled to combat or even critique them all, from opening up domestic oil drilling to kicking off a nationwide deportation effort to the Department of Government Efficiency identifying billions of waste and fraud in the federal government.
Most immediately relevant to Congress is Trump’s plan to cut taxes and fund the government, which is set to shut down in mid-March if funding is not re-upped.
So far Trump has managed to get his tax cuts passed in the House while Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., has signaled he wants to make those cuts permanent. The tax cuts were first signed in 2017 during Trump’s first term and included raising the standard deduction and child tax credits.
Now, Trump is in range of cementing his tax cut legacy.
What Trump needs next from Congress is for them to begin codifying his executive orders, many of which are facing legal challenges on the basis that the president does not have the authority to issue such an order. If Trump wants many of these orders to stand and to outlive the next Democratic president who can easily undo them, he will need lawmakers to pass legislation codifying the rules.
“Spent a little bit of time with the President this weekend and I have to say – this speech is going to be epic,” Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., wrote on X. “You will not want to miss.”
Trump’s tariffs are also a major question mark this term. Republican lawmakers have generally favored free trade over tariffs, but now the president has proposed reciprocal tariffs, essentially putting tariffs on other countries only to the degree that they tariff the U.S.
Ironically, the proposal could lead to an overall reduction in tariffs worldwide, but this kind of tariff proposal is novel in American politics and leaves a lot of uncertainty on how many Republicans will support the effort, how other nations will react, and how much and how fast prices in the U.S. will rise as a result of the tariffs.
Most recently, Trump has taken flak for his public spat with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy last week. Democrats in particular want Trump to make up with the Ukrainian leader and help stop Russia’s push into Ukraine.
With the world watching, Trump’s comments on Ukraine will signal if he is willing to make up with Zelenskyy or forge a new path forward of staying out of the fight and leaving Ukraine to fend for itself.
Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said he will skip the joint address in protest.
“I think thatā¦speech is going to be a farce,” he told CNN’s Dana Bash. “I think it is going to be a MAGA pep rally, not a serious speech.”
Despite the controversial policies coming fast and furious out of the White House, Republicans have so far remained largely united behind the president.
“President Trump is making a triumphant return to the Capitol to address a joint session of Congress on Tuesday,” House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., wrote on X. “After his first month back in the Oval Office, he has a long list of victories, fulfilled promises, and actions taken to make America GREAT again.”

The Lord bless and keep President Trump, the Republican party, and of course the American people. To the Democratic party – why the long face??
My husband and I just watched the address to Congress. Thanks to the intervention of Speaker Johnson, the majority of the time decorum was observed. There was a begrudged restraint, but nothing akin to unity or even civility on the part of one side of the aisle. I have never been so ashamed to call some people fellow citizens, when they couldn’t even acknowledge bravery, sacrifice, patriotism, righteousness, scholarship, hard work etc. in the men and women honored by President Trump – men and women who exemplified these qualities. It was juvenile and inexcusable, and grieved me deeply.
Ms. Nancy this is not the devil’s platform who sent you to express your evil mind. More sexual predators and felons we saw on the previous administration but I guess you favor sin and perversity when it comes from your party and your ideology. Your ideology or gender blinded your spiritual eyes. Please leave this platform and don’t ever come back. We are here to seek the Lord for the good of this nation. As a naturalized American citizen I can tell you that we are much better now than we were with the previous administration. Please leave. I pray for your salvation and that the God opens your eyes. In Jesus name. Amen.
Lord GOD Almighty,
I pray for Your anointing on Mr. Trump.
May he speak only what the Holy Spirit inspires him to speak, so that only Your plans and purposes will be proposed and accomplished. I ask You Lord GOD, to silence all those who would dare to oppose your divine plans. In Jesus glorious Name, Amen.
Amen!
Mr. Trump no, the president of the United States Donald Trump.
We pray for our dear President Donald Trump who has done so much already for the country in the eyes of God. We pray that the enemy is defeated in his evil plans. Too much opposition from the enemy via the other party democrats. We pray for protection for the President. God bless him. Amen.
We pray for our dear President, that his voice would be anointed that the heart of men would look at the things that have been done. That they would see the truth Jesus we are so thankful for our president. We pray that you will give him plans from heaven, wisdom from heaven. we pray that the light of heaven would fill that room that men would see it is your agenda for country..
Dear Heavenly Father, Pour fresh oil on President Donald John Trump as he addresses Congress and the nation. I pray that with godly wisdom, humility, truth, and knowledge, President Trump will speak and make decisions that glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in word and deed. Make the crooked paths straight, and surround President
Trump with godly, wise couselors to get our nation back on track. May a special hedge of protection and a ring of fire be around the United States of America, our President, and his cabinet members. Let GOD arise, and His enemies be scattered! Psa 68:1
I completely agree and say amen to your prayers for the president for this nation and the cabinet.
You are championing the Father of Lies. The charges were fake and the juries were twisted and he committed no Felonies ever. Shame on you. The judges are paid off or there are compromising videos of them Epstein style. Trump speaks Truth at all times. Biden wS the Liar in Chief about steaking millions through the Ukraine money-laundering machine. God is Truth. I hope you learn the Truth.
Compromise is what got us in the mess were we in,- that Our Lord is now working through President Trump to get us out of.
Father, I pray for his speech tonight. May he speak the way and what you would have him say. May your peace be over the whole place.
Dear David-
Tariff’s were used exclusively for we Americans prior to 1913 when the IRS was formed. Tariff’s need to be
the way to raise revenue in our country AGAIN. Since the Gold Standard was done away with in our
country- national debt has skyrocketed. This is not good. I believe it was Carter who did away with the
Gold Standard or possible Nixon. That was a huge mistake.
We need to pray that all the evil will be exposed in this country and those who have done and are doing
evil will be prosecuted to the full degree of the Law. The Bible tells us that evil people will be destroyed!
Lyres will be exposed and delt with to the full letter of the Law. Consequences is the only way to return our
country to what it was created to be by our Founding Fathers. In Jesus Strong Name!!!
Heavenly Father, we first exalt Your precious name. As we seek Your will to be brought forward tonight, let Your presence be evident in the hallways, chambers, in the President’s speech and in every representative in attendance. We speak peace (shalom) over this address. By Your Spirit usher in a heart of gratitude in this nation. We are the United State of America, brought forward in and through You alone. Lead President Trump, lead this nation, lead our families, lead our churches and in every sphere of influence increase Your Kingdom Authority. Praying all this in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
Amen
We all have one vote to cast, and that is our civic duty. when that has been done, then the fate of our nation is left in the hands of God and the winner of the election. I pray that Trump will continue to do whatās best for the nation, but I only hope that he will āDial the temperatureā back just a bit. transparency is good but not total exposure to the media is necessary. announce what you are attempting to do in the beginning and later publish the resultsā¦itās not necessary that we see āthe all in between stuffā. it only keeps the public in an uproar…I.e. Ukraine negotiations
Then, that is not transparency. If he does that then the public will be wondering what is behind the scenes. President Trump wanted the whole country what the deal was about and show honesty to Americans. I think that is wisdom. Amen/
President Trump, Pastor Mark and I are lifting you up before the Lord today as you are preparing for the address to the congress and the nation.
Peace for our country and unity. putting all our difference aside and unite in the Lords will for our nation.
In Jesus name we pray,
Pastor’s Mark & Amy England
Father God, Creator of the Universe we come before you thankful for President Trump and his heart for America. Humble him so his words speak to many and open ears to hear. As he reveals his plans against evil may both Democrats and Republicans see Gods wisdom and purpose for America and the world. We thank you for Trumps presidency for such a time as this and we watch for revival in our country as it turns back to you Lord! In Jesus name we pray! Amen
Thank you Lord for President Trump! He is your gift to America and to everyone around the world who wants leaders who are honest, fair, and truthful. As he is bombarded by the enemy with lies and slander, he speaks his mind with peace and integrity at heart. Those that want to do him harm seem great but in your eyes are really small and nothing. We are in the midst of pure spiritual warfare and we thank you dear Jesus for Donald Trump. Humbly we ask that you strengthen and protect him as he strives to clean up years of corruption, and to do your will in America and around the globe.
Father I pray for your will to be done through this man you have given to the vast majority of the people in United States. I pray for files to appear, for computers to be searched, for evil to be revealed in all aspects of the Government and to become clean ASAP! Jesus is coming again. Be prepared!
Like King David, I pray President Trump will fear God rather than men and be bold and courageous to speak truth that honors God and not any words meant to curry favor with any particular people in power or to please men rather than God. May Trump listen and let God give Him what words need to be said. May he speak only what is true and right, and let all lies of the media be exposed in the light. May Trump remember how just a short time ago we all witnessed his life being spared – may this knowledge humble him to serve You, God rather than man. http://www.mtothe5th.wordpress.com
Amen very much agree praying that Trump will not think about the most extreme of his voters, but will seek the lord, that he will listen and quiet himself and be able to truly hear the Lord speak to him. I pray for good Godly advisors to surround him and also be praying for him and not be afraid to speak wisdom to him. We ask that no door shut that you have open Lord and no door open that you have shut.
Compromise is what got us in the mess were we in,- that Our Lord is now working through President Trump to get us out of.
Have you made a bible bookmark card no the present members of the executive branch of the government and legislative branch committee leaders yet?
YHVH, we pray that both speech and attitudes would be restrained by Holy Spirit’s presence at the address tonight. May You be glorified and honored, and not man.
Amen!
Dear Lord, I pray that the efforts President Trump is making to bring America back to your standards of justice and morality will be completely successful. Please protect and guide him, his family and our government representatives as we try to reestablish this country as One Nation Under God! There are so many issues that need to be resolved and I pray that God will keep His Hand on the whole process and keep us covered in His mercy.
” I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone–for kings and all those in authority, that may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.” 1 Timothy 2: 1-2
Please pray for President Trump as he addresses Congress.
A resounding “YES” in prayer that the President’s words mirror that of Our Lord!
Lord God let the words of President Trump be your words and not his own. Let your presence be felt among those listening to his address and may you be glorified. Amen
Dear Heavenly Father, I pray you keep President Trump within your will tonight and every day in the future. Surround him with your wisdom, protection and guidance. Bring a restraint to the enemy and thank you for exposing all lies, deception from evil spirits who are trying to stop your will. Bring order out of chaos and reconciliation out of division in our government. Thank you also for protecting Trump’s new cabinet members, VP Vance, their families and all Patriots who are fighting for our country to thrive in this appointed time in our great nation. Thank you also for the outpouring of love you have bestowed on us and for revival and restoration. Help us to fight the good fight for righteousness. Let there be no ugliness tonight, only cohesiveness and let it be carried into our future. In Jesus Holy Name Amen.
Yes Lord, please thwart any dishonoring, disruptive agenda planned by the enemy during tonight’s event. Please do not let the left create a hostile environment like they did when Adam Shiff was censured during congressional hearing. We rely on You, Father – may You do more than we can ask or think! In Jesus Name, so be it
The Logan Act!
Lord God, I pray Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
I pray for President Trump as he try and clean up the destruction in our country. Open the eyes of the blinded that can not see Your mercy on America, in spite of our sin. Thank You Jesus. š
Father God I just pray that you’ll use president Trump when he speaks tonight let the words that he says and the message that he brings be in complete accord with you and your most perfect and precious will. God let your will be done in our country beginning with President Trump. Caim him for you Lord God and every member of Congress also! Bring our country back to you to stay Lord God totally and completely.
Father: We praise you for all the work that President Trump has accomplished thus far but there is more to be done. Be with him tonight as he speaks and let his words be anointed by You Fatherā¦. Let it pierce through the darkness so that truth will be revealed. May there be power legally to stop the corruption that has been perpetrated against the citizens of our nation. Bring our nation back to Your righteousness with our leaders, laws to the benefit of our nation. More than anything may our elected leaders live to bring You Glory into our nation. In Jesus Name we Pray Amen š
As a believer, I am commanded to pray for our President. I pray that God would move upon his heart to show compassion and grace. God was always mindful of the the poor and marginalized and President Trump has not demonstrated this as he has he has allowed DOGE to fire people at will with no concern for their welfare.
His tariffs and will cause enormous price hikes for the average American and his tax cuts favor the rich. I pray that you would surround President Trump with advisors who would give his wise, Godly counsel and that he would listen. Have mercy on our nation where the average citizen will get liberty and justice.
āI thinkā¦speech is going to be a farce, I think it is going to be a MAGA pep rally, not a serious speech.ā Sen. Murphy (D)
āā¦this speech is going to be epicā¦ā Rep. Mace (R)
“Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire, not a root or a branch will be left to them. But to you who fear My Name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings…” Adonai-Tzvaāot, Lord of Hosts
“Even now the ax is ready to strike the root of the trees! Therefore, every tree that doesnāt produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.” John the Baptist
“Every plant that My Heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.” Jesus
root and branch-completely or thoroughly
Dear Heavenly Father, Your direction is foundational to restoring our nation, I have prayed this often. There are countless words to build my appeal but I seek only one decision, Yours. I know superficially but You know root and branch. So it is in this truth that I pray this morning. Ahead of President Trumpās address, will You remove any lie, not only in his words but in the hearts of ALL who will be listening? Will You begin a kingdom weeding to remove what the adversary has sown. And for those deeply ingrained deceptions, will You take Your axe to the root? We need the root and branch work that only You can accomplish. For too long, corruption and lies have had a stranglehold on us, please hear my prayer. I believe in the Name of Jesus Christ, my Savior, You can do so much more than even this. Amen
I have to say that chris murphy and any democrat that was with him met with zelinski before zelinski met with President Trump and told zelinski not the work with President Trump they all should be arrested for insurrection and treason for those actions. The democrats continue to double down on being anti American and pro socialism neither of which fits into Godās plans. There is still time for them to repent and return to God I pray that they will. I trust in God. ššš
Actually, I just watched O’Reillys no spin news -, he is the most well informed journalist. He said that the 11 congressman that briefed Zelinsk b4 that confrontation, told him point blank to be humble.
Zel did not do that.
Why canāt a live voice be used. Are we short of people? AI VOICES ARE SO FALSE AND FRANKLY DISTURBING
Lord, we pray for protection over President Trump. Keep your angels standing guard over him and keeping him alive to fulfill your will of ridding our government of corruption and making it the great country that you dreamed of when it was birthed.
I am looking forward to this address by President Trump. I pray, Lord, that You will give him the words to speak, and guide His actions. I pray that You will impart a Holy Spirit anointing upon Mr. Trump, and that he will receive Your guidance and direction. Thank You Jesus.
Dear Savior Jesus, You are the humble King and glorious victory King! Majesty is Your Name! Hallelujah! PTL!!!
We love You, Lord! You are the Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. You are the All in all, You are the Way the Truth and the Life!
Emmanuel, God is with us, in Your precious name, we pray for our dear President Trump full of your wisdom and strength, grace and mercy, plus your favorite and protection!

I pray for President Trump, his family and team each night as I go to sleep especially for their safety. I pray that God reveals and prevents every evil plot against them. In the powerful name of Jesus.
America turning its back on the UK forgets its Christian roots. From where did the Pilgrims travel? What about the blood of the martyrs? What about the Balfour declaration? Are you praying about Musk’s demonic influence? Do not forget your brothers and sisters in the UK and Europe. Putin persecutes evangelical Christians. He is no friend to Christians. Do not be deceived. The enemy will use this to bring in more persecution including in the UK.
Heavenly Father, only you will get the glory in Ukraine and not Donald Trump or Elon Musk. Remember your church who have been killed in Ukraine. Save Zelensky who is Jewish. Deliver Israel and Ukraine from evil. Father confound the enemy’s plans and push back the powers of darkness and give us a season of grace and peace.
In Jesus’s name.
Anonymous, although I do not fully agree with you, I do with your prayer.
“Father confound the enemyās plans and push back the powers of darkness and give us a season of grace and peace.” I agree in this mighty appeal as it IS for Your Glory and the good of Your people. Amen
A lot of believers in the UK are very concerned about the developments. This is pushing us closer to the EU and an antichrist system because our “Christian” US ally is saying go it alone. Please understand that we cannot pray in our heads in some places in the UK? If UK politicians think that the President and Vice-President are not to be listened to, how does that help us believers in the UK who raise the lack of freedom of expression in the UK? Please pray for us in the UK and Europe and may your leaders be led by the Holy Spirit. We have been praying for the US elections for years. This is the Lord’s will but it is a different spiritual season from 2016-2020. May the Lord deliver us from evil. In Jesus’s name. š
Anonymous, we lived outside of London when my Dad was stationed at South Ruislip AFB, 1967-1971. I loved every moment. The current state of affairs in the UK is heartbreaking. Thank you for your prayers and please know I do pray for the UK and I will continue to! The following prayer is built upon God’s Word (from Isaiah 43) and I KNOW His Word will not return void.
Lord, You said to Israel,āØāDo not fear, for:
I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name; you are Mine.
I will be with you when you pass through the waters and when you pass through the rivers,āØthey will not overwhelm you. āØYou will not be scorched when you walk through the fire and the flame will not burn you.
I, I am Yahweh and there is no other Savior but Me.
I alone declared, saved, and proclaimedā not some foreign god among you.āØ
I act and who can reverse it?ā
Father God, I pray Your mighty declaration will cover Anonymous and all the other Christ seekers in the UK. Keep them Lord God Almighty! Keep them:
Fearless
Redeemed
Yours alone
Safe from earthly dangers
Strong in Your love
Trusting in Your irrevocable power
Please Lord, bring change to the UK. Change the hearts set against Your commands and for those who love You, please change this present time to reflect righteousness, for Your Glory and for the good of Your people. I am asking this and so much more, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen
Anonymous, [email protected]….I continue to pray
Anonymous,
Pray for Musk, Putin, Trump, and Zelenskyās salvation (and others you may not like . . .)
First of all, then, I urge that requests, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made in behalf of all people, 2 for kings and all who are in [a]authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and [b]dignity. 3 This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to the [c]knowledge of the truth.
While people still have breath there is hope. I think we will be surprised who is in heaven and who is not. Iām thankful glad God is the final judge.
Holy Spirit, Jesus please help President Trump to lean on You. Help there to be a wave of humility sweep over all the people inside that chamber as well as across the nation. help us to not gloat over the downfall of those who have committed so much evil against You and against the people of America. Let the politicking be far from this nation and far from the House Chamber tonight. You have given us mercy and we are still in great need of Your mercy. You are the Alpha and the Omega. You know the end from the beginning. we are so thankful for this president and his love for America. In Jesus Name, Amen.
Am standing shoulder to shoulder with you Elizabeth in intercession !!
We remind the evil one of Col. 2:14-15 which solidifies his defeat !! Hallelujah !!
Father, thank you for all the angels that have surrounded this nation, that both Tim Sheets and Chuck Pierce were shown. Grant complete protection to President Trump and to his team, as they travel to the House chamber and back after the speech. Protect him during the speech. Bless the president with words in his mouth that glorify You Lord. Let him not take the credit to himself like a man named Nebucadnezer did years ago, and because there was no humility, he was sent out to eat grass for 7 years. Let there be wisdom in the words of this speech. Wisdom from You O Lord. Let it be in his actions and in his words.
It is a time for all of the people of the Congress and all the various agencies to humble themselves. Come into that Chamber as President Trump comes through the doors. Help the people in the room to recognize Your Presence. in Jesus Name, Amen
I pray America and the World will receive President Trump’s speech – message of warning and commitment showing all what is at stake for the country and ultimately the world – with open ears, discernment and understanding that the righteous will take it as a call to action, and those whose ears are closed will at least step aside…. I pray that the Lord will be pleased knowing that what President Trump is attempting is what the Lord wants and it will glorify God, and greater understanding of God’s will spread across all the nations will be the result…. an understanding and thankfulness that the United States of America belongs to God, and it always has. In Jesus’ name, my Lord and Saviour, I pray…. Amen
Amen and amen!
