I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we ask that you protect our nation from the activism of social media giants. Protect our free speech and put an end to cancel culture.

This app could be a real disruption to social media companies. Those companies have grown increasingly political and have become a key component of cancel culture. This app will be interesting to watch, and intercessors should always be praying for the protection of free speech and an end to cancel culture.

From Fox Business: Donald Trump‘s new social media venture, Truth Social, launched late on Sunday in Apple‘s App Store, potentially marking the former president’s return to social media after he was banned from several platforms last year.

The app was available shortly before midnight ET and was the top free app available on the App Store early Monday. Truth Social was automatically downloaded to Apple Inc devices belonging to users who had pre-ordered the app.

Many users reported either having trouble registering for an account or were added to a waitlist with a message: “Due to massive demand, we have placed you on our waitlist…”

Trump was banned from Twitter Inc, Facebook and Alphabet Inc’s YouTube following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters, after he was accused of posting messages inciting violence…

Led by former Republican U.S. Representative Devin Nunes, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the venture behind Truth Social, joins a growing portfolio of technology companies that are positioning themselves as champions of free speech and hope to draw users who feel their views are suppressed on more established platforms…

On Friday, Nunes was on the app urging users to follow more accounts, share photos and videos and participate in conversations, in an apparent attempt to drum up activity, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.

Among Nunes’ posts, he welcomed a new user who appeared to be a Catholic priest and encouraged him to invite more priests to join, according to the person with knowledge of the matter.

Even as details of the app begin trickling out, TMTG remains mostly shrouded in secrecy and is regarded with skepticism by some in tech and media circles. It is unclear, for example, how the company is funding its current growth.

I pray that God will use this to help get truth out to those who are seeking truth, and that those who contribute truly express truth. TRUTH from God’s perspective.

Father, giver of authority, in the name of Jesus I ask You to bind the spirit of cancel culture and cancel it.
I pray for President Trump who has been fighting against tyrannical encroachment.
Father, I bind on earth what is contrary to heaven and loose heaven upon earth.
Father, evil is panicking. You know the end from the beginning. You can touch the earth with Your finger and blast evil to the unknown reaches of our universe. We understand that all evil MUST only do according to permission You give. Yet, You can delay and forbid it altogether.
Thank You for the global revival we are witnessing. Use this social media site to further Your truth, along with Intercessors for America and Frank Speech.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
