A Prayer For Our President On His Birthday



Happy Birthday President Trump!

Many Happy Returns of the Day!


"But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper,
and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment,
you shall show to be in the wrong. This triumph over
the opposition is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced;
this is the righteousness which they obtain from Me,
this is that which I impart to them as their justification
 says the Lord."
Isaiah 54:17




President Donald J. Trump
45th President of the United States of America




"We pray, Lord Jesus, for our President.  We are deeply concerned 
 that he may know the will of God, and that he may have
 the spiritual courage and grace to follow it.  

Deliver him, we pray, from all selfish considerations.

Lift him above the claims of politics.

Fill him with the Spirit of God, that shall make him
 fearless to seek, to know, and to do right.

Save him from the friends who, in the name of politics or 
 even friendship, would persuade him from that holy path.

Strengthen and empower his advisers.
  Bring them, too, to their knees in prayer.

May their example and their influence spread, that we, in these United States,
may yet have a government of men who know Thee, the Almighty God, as
their Friend, and who place Thy will first in their lives as well as in their prayers.

Hear and answer, we pray Thee, forgiving us all our unworthiness; cleansing us
from every ignoble thought and unworthy ambition, that we may be renewed in
spirit and mind and heart through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
