I Prayed have prayed
Father God, thank you for the states taking action on the border. We pray that you would give supernatural wisdom to all elected officials dealing with the Southern border crisis.
Reading Time: 3 minutes

The Washington Free Beacon reported this week, “Intelligence officials told the White House in a classified briefing that individuals with ties to terrorist groups may be illegally crossing the southern border….”

“Our southern border is too easy to cross, and everyone knows it, but unfortunately securing the border has become a partisan issue with Republicans in favor and Democrats against,” Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) told the Free Beacon after reviewing the government document. “But let me tell you who doesn’t care about our domestic partisan politics: human traffickers exploiting vulnerable women and children from Central America, and those that wish to do us harm.” Children are being “warehoused” according to a recent CNN article on the migrant situation. Officials are concerned of a potential spike in migrant deaths in the coming months due to extreme heat. Central American leaders are blaming President Joe Biden for the border crisis.

  • Guatemala’s President Alejandro Giammattei: “The message changed to we’re going to reunite families and we’re going to reunite children. The very next day the coyotes were here organizing groups of children to take them to the United States.”
  • Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador: “Expectations were created that with the government of President Biden there would be a better treatment of migrants. And this has caused Central American migrants, and from our country, wanting to cross the border thinking that it is easier to do so.”
  • El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele : “Of course” free healthcare, which the Biden administration supports, is an “incentive” for illegal immigration.

According to U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR), securing the border can be solved.  He provided the following steps:

  • Enforce our immigration laws
  • End sanctuary city policies that offer safe-havens for illegal immigrants
  • Build a border wall
  • Eliminate the failed ‘Catch and Release’ policy
  • Restore the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy

Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) sent a letter to Vice President Harris urging her to visit the border. “I write to invite you to the U.S. Southern Border to observe the ongoing humanitarian crisis and share the perspective of Americans who live there. I encourage you to join me and other Members of Congress, while we visit with the people on the ground who deal with these issues every day,” wrote Cuellar in the letter.

In May, Governor Kristi Noem, along with 19 other governors, sent a joint letter to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris requesting action along the southern border. Governor Greg Abbott (R-Texas) held a press conference this week announcing his border wall construction strategy and several key components to build a border wall. During the press conference Governor Abbott also announced a donation page, www.borderwall.texas.gov, where anyone can voluntarily donate to the construction of the border wall.

I pray that other States will help protect the border states, financially, and in other ways, by helping them build the border wall!! Those who don’t live in the border states are also being impacted by illegals pouring in to our country. Biden is sending them to all the other states as well. This porous border is wrong and it’s illegal and dangerous to every citizen in this country! President Trump had policies in place that worked! This administration doesn’t care about the American people or the illegals! Wonder what they would do, if some of these criminals they’re letting in came to their house?? “When the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against them.” “No weapon, formed against us will prosper.” “Our God is able, to do exceeding, abundantly, above all we can think or ask!”

Lord I pray that you would allow, leak, make known, expose publicly every “background or hidden individual(s)” working to allow these criminal acts of illegal entry into our nation. We know Lord that there are people who are present government employees and people outside the government or this nation who have complete influence in the chaos we see. EXPOSE THEM LORD GOD through any means necessary and deal with them according to Your perfect justice. In Your name we pray Lord amen.

Father, all the current administration had to do was nothing! If they had simply left the policies alone thus crisis would not be what it is. People are hurting, Father! And while I want all immigrants to come into our country legally, I also do not want to see people suffer at the hands of an admistration that so hates Trump that they had to tear apart what was working and now they don’t even have the compassion to show up to see the horror they’ve produced. Father, I ask, that You remove these people from any positions of power so that human lives are spared. Humble them Father. Spare the lives they seem to totally disrespect and disavow. In Your righteous name.

    Laurie, I see this as a restoration of the Obama/NWO policy, not as a reaction to Trump. Trump was only a speed bump. It probably helps to consolidate the leftist to focus on Trump though.

It is very heart breaking to watch what has happan in the few months Joe Biden and Kamalia Harris are doing to destroy our USA . They do not care. They really do not care about protecting Our USA. That is the number one purpose for a president. Protect our USA It is all about money, control, power. It was a plan to turn our nation into a socialist nation. How do we get someone out of office who is not able to protect our USA? For what is happening is a disgrace. I really do not know . He is not physically ,mentally able to be in office and either is she. Our hope is in Our Lord to help, guide, direct us . For we do not know what to do .We are asking Our Lord to help us to pray, guide, direct us as we need His forgivness, healing, help in Our USA and other nations who are watching what is taking place. God help us be the light. AMEN.

    Speaking of America as a whole, this country has killed 60 million children because they were inconvenient. Now we are experiencing a flood of VERY “inconvenient “ children at our border. Terrorists are one thing, but Hispanics from Central America another. These are poverty stricken but hardworking largely Catholic people. I have known many of them. Supposing Christians got together as churches and took some families in? Help them learn English, support them financially at first but help them find work and shelter, making sure they do not get or depend on government handouts. And disciple them!
    Americans are not having enough children to preserve our society. Yes the drug cartels and the MS-13 gangs are a threat and should be expelled as fast as possible. But brown families from Central America are not our enemies.
    I know I am sounding like a liberal mainline Protestant which I am not! But supposing we don’t let the Democrats co-opt these folk into lifelong financial servitude to their party? Supposing we “show them our faith by our works”?
