President Donald Trump

Great, stirring inaugural speech.

God glorifying prayers and songs.

Good start. I pray, together with you, that God will indeed make America great again...by making America His again

God bless,

Brother William,
I had to work and missed last nights event but watched a replay this morning and was also moved by the songs invoking the name of God (even Christ) and felt much the same as you... very encouraged:)

Today he (POTUS) said "God" 3 times in his speech... it's been so long since I heard a president sincerely say God in a positive way that it almost seemed foreign. Hopefully this will be the new norm and God will once again be welcome in America and hopefully "His again" :)

I had to work as well but my wife said that franklin graham and another lady minister said the name of Jesus numerous times.

The country is as divided against itself as the day President Lincoln took office. The hate from the left is much more sinister and hostile and intolerant than anything it criticizes. Prayer is going to be needed for Trump whether we agree with him in all things or not.

Blessing all,
I thought that that their was a delibrate and calculated effort to put "The Christian God" Our God not just a generic God back into the narrative.
President Trump mentioned as I remember "God" and Later mention God as "The Creator" which was great.
Franklin Graham got as near to giving a Prophesy as probably ever at an inauguration when he described the rain beginning just as Donald Trump began to speak similar as when it rained in the bible it was a blessing.He did very well and I really felt God was in that prayer.
Yes I think we can say that God was given a place at the Inauguration,whether that carries on or not it was a good start,

Brothers,

I agree that there is definitely something different about this swearing in than I have ever witnessed in my entire life next to Reagen.

I do believe the Lord is extending a window of mercy to both America and Israel and I am praying to use this time wisely, soberly, and prayerfully.

Several of us believe there is something significant about 2017 and that the Lord is going to continue to show Himself Sovereign amongst the Nations.

I have been also pondering if this might not be a year of Jubilee as this June marks 50 years since the Lord gave many of Israels enemies into her hands back in 1967.

Isaiah 61:1-3 KJV The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me; because the LORD hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; (2) To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; (3) To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

While I prayerfully committed this election into the Lords hands I would be lying if I said I was not surprised Trump won. While I could not cast a vote for the presidency I was definitely praying for the Lords will to be done, and no matter who made it in, His will would be and was done and Jesus would still be on the throne.

I am telling you brothers there is not a day that goes by that God does not fails to provide souls who are open to the Gospel. Today alone, I have had the opportunity to share the Gospel with a family member, a coworker, and I met a Jewish Man at one of my accounts today who was happy to be leaving the job early so he could prepare for the sabbath tomorrow.

He was open and heard the whole Gospel, got two bible tracts and I asked him if he would be willing to listen to some testimonies of converted Jews and he said yes. I directed him to the website One For Israel, I Met Messiah.

I told him I loved him in Jesus/Yeshua's name and that God is doing a miracle for both America and Israel. He agreed and thanked me for sharing with him.

Brethren, all that is happening at this place and time is for ONE purpose and that is to PREACH the Gospel!

It's not about Trump but Jesus Christ and the Lord is sending willing Laborers into the fields.

Like you brothers said, I am greatly encouraged! Please remember to say a prayer for Samuel!

Hi Dfella,
God sometimes uses the "unlikely" to help out his cause.Sometimes the"likely" are not able or not up to the Job or not positioned to do what God wants.Then the "unlikely" are called upon,

I have no complaints With the new President so far.

But has anyone else been feeling the heightened amount of hate coming from the left towards conservatives especially Christians.

Yeah as a matter of fact that issue has been popping up on my radar and as I see it, while it's been building since the election, it seems to be increasing and most likely will continue to. I believe it's a physical manifestation of what's been taking place in the spirit ...we're at war and in the political/judicial realm the balance of power has shifted. While we know we war not against flesh and blood but against powers and principalities, this nonetheless spills over into the physical. My prayer is that those who call on the name of the Lord would stand and be lights to a darkened world, not arguing or complaining, but lovingly holding out the word of life-the gospel of Jesus Christ:)

Honestly I view this as an amazing opportunity to do the work of the kingdom of God:)

I got some good news last Saturday on Donald Trump from a brother that was at the Deridder Aglow meeting. He is the assistant Pastor of Zion Hill Church in Pineville. He was one of the organizers for Louisiana Outpouring. He is involved in a prayer ministry that prays for state governors. The leader of this ministry knows Mike Pence personally. He said that Donald Trump has accepted Christ as his savior, and that Mike Pence is feeding him the Word to help him grow on a regular basis.

I was very impressed by the prayers that were prayed at the inauguration that were all prayed in the name of Jesus except for the one that was prayed by the Jewish Rabbi. No Muslims prayed at this inauguration.

The scripture that Franklin Graham read at the inauguration:

First of all, then, I admonish and urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all men, For kings and all who are in positions of authority or high responsibility, that [outwardly] we may pass a quiet and undisturbed life [and inwardly] a peaceable one in all godliness and reverence and seriousness in every way. For such [praying] is good and right, and [it is] pleasing and acceptable to God our Savior, Who wishes all men to be saved and [increasingly] to perceive and recognize and discern and know precisely and correctly the [divine] Truth. (1 Timothy 2:1-4 AMP)

The reason why Trump won the presidency that confounded and astonished the news media was the heavy turnout of evangelical Christians and Catholics that predominantly voted for Trump. James Dobson, who has been the director for Focus on the Family for many years believes that the stark difference between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on the issue of abortion was the catalyst for the large Christian turnout. Hillary Clinton made it known that she favored late term abortion right up until the time of birth, while Donald Trump took a prolife stance.

A family member was telling me about A well known Christian leader that recently visted there fellowship, This Leader has written strongly against Trump in the past and said that he would not allow him to speak at there college.

According to my family member this well known Christian Leader recently went with Graham and some from Moody to visit and talk with Trump.
He was supprised by Trumps willingness to listen to what they had to say.
I guess Trump started the conversation out by asking what they disliked about him and asked them what he could do to fix it.
I do not know anymore of the details about the conversations other than that.

Markus,

In our hope that America becomes great again we are speaking of great in the context of godliness and true justice. That America would be great in being more completely His.

Of course, our hope is not in a mere man but in what God intends through that man

Blessings

Brothers,

I have a booklet from a ministry entitled America and Great Britain in prophecy. I read it many years ago and just put the thought in the back of my mind.

This book claims that the American and British peoples are both descended from Joseph's two sons Manasseh and Ephraim whom Jacob blessed.

Genesis 48:1-5 KJV And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. (2) And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed. (3) And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, (4) And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession. (5) And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.

Genesis 48:13-20 KJV And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near unto him. (14) And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn. (15) And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day, (16) The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth. (17) And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head. (18) And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head. (19) And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations. (20) And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.

The book says Ephraim represents America and Manasseh Great Britain. The book makes a very strong argument as to how when the twelve tribes of Israel were scattered how Joseph's two sons migrated and became these two great Nations that history shows that God has blessed and has given her enemies into their hands.

For many years I have not been of the patriotic sort, but as I Christian, I do have a burden to pray and I am grateful for the country wherein I live. I believe Gods Sovereignty prevails over all things we see in the natural.

He is the One who sets up the Kings and He is the One who takes them down. Trump is the President because God made him the President. God and the name of Jesus are being preached like never before and I am going to take FULL, FULL, FULL, advantage to take this window of opportunity to preach Jesus like never before.

I am going to pray, and lift up America, Israel, and our leadership like never before. I see an opportunity to preach to, love unconditionally, and DO good to my/our enemies. THIS is what is going to build NOT America, Israel, or the UK, this is what is going to build Gods Kingdom, one soul at a time.

So however long the Lord sees fit to leave this door open I will remain optimistic and not focus on when the door will slam shut. I fully intend to snatch as many as God will give into my hands brothers, I am going to loot, and pillage, and take as much spoil from the enemies camp as I can.

Do you remember the character named Glum in Gulliver's Travels? He was the pessimist who was always saying, "It'll never work, we'll never make it". I don't want to be like this Brothers.

I will not speak death, cursing, or defeat, I choose to speak life, blessing, and victory for THIS IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD. This IS the Gospel Jesus says will be preached in the last days.

A prevailing thought in our church and in our spirits is this, It's not by might nor by power but by My Spirit saith the Lord! This thought is down in my spirit and my bones outpouring is not coming brothers, it's happening now and will continue to increase like Fletcher says and I bear witness to this.

"Come now let us reason saith the Lord", brothers when our spirit is right with the Lord, we can minister in love, compassion, and in ALL sincerity and this will break down even the most hard hearted individuals, I experience this almost daily. I am not looking to debate people that only fuels pride and builds walls! Debaters need to repent and get delivered of that demon so they can be useful for the Kingdom! Debating and proving we or our way is right is not the Fathers will.

We need to start acting like the ministers of reconciliation that we are, this is our universal calling. If we can't reconcile the lost unto Jesus we need to back up the truck and reexamine our own hearts.

Does the Lord ever give you a word to go and share with others who are bound and hurting? Are you stepping out in faith to speak a word from the Lord in due season at work, church, the grocery store? Are you ever motivated to do/show an act of kindness on those whom you come in contact with everyday? Are you armed with tracts? Do you carry them in your wallet or purse?

These are just a few examples of SEED and WATER for that SEED. As you have freely received, ought you not to freely give? This is my prayer for us all today:

Isaiah 55:1-12 KJV Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. (2) Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto Me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. (3) Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. (4) Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people. (5) Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for He hath glorified thee. (6) Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near: (7) Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. (8) For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, saith the LORD. (9) For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. (10) For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: (11) So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (12) For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

Thanks for all the input on this topic brothers I do ponder and weigh all thoughts expressed.

/Brethren the kingdom of God is not the United States of America. Donald Trump is not the heavenly king. Jesus is not going to rule from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue./

I havent read where anyone on the forum has said that or even implied it.
