Please, saints, let us ask God for divine discernment on this man.

Something feels terribly wrong about this deceptive confirmation. People can say anything! There is nothing concrete which confirms Oz’s allegiance to a change of heart.

He was pro abortion until his nomination. Don’t trust him.

Abba Father, guide Dr. Oz and give him Divine wisdom and insight into all the workings of our Federal Health Care agencies. Send your angels to go before him and clear his path. Don’t allow the enemy to trip or trap him or discredit him.
– Give him Divine wisdom, understanding, counsel and might and the knowledge and fear of you. – Give him qualified people to work along side of him and remove any pitfalls causing him to stumble.
– Reveal and remove fraudulent activity from these agencies.
– Bring these antiquated systems up to date.
– May no weapon formed against him prosper, and any tongue that rises up against him you shall condemn.
– Guide us, Guide Dr. Oz, O thou great Jehovah, we are weak but you are strong. We are pilgrims in this barren land.
– Hold Dr. Oz in your powerful hand.
We look to you to go before us and clear the path and lead with fire and cloudy pillar.
– Lead Dr. Oz all his journey through.
You are our strong Deliverer.
– Be Thou still Dr. Oz’s Strength and Shield; Lord, we trust Thy mighty power,
– Wondrous are Thy works of old;
Land us safe on Canaan’s side.
Songs of praises, songs of praises,
We will ever give to Thee;
We will ever give to Thee.
In Jesus holy and mighty name we pray, Amen.
