A Leaders Prayer



Psalm 25:19-22

“Consider how many are my foes, and with what violent hatred they hate me.  Oh, guard my soul, and deliver me!  Let me not be put to shame, for I take refuge in you.   May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you?   Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.”

If you are listening or reading anything from the USA media, you understand that they have an agenda to destroy President Trump, and they are not big on truth, for when you hate someone, you cannot be objective.  One wonders if like King David, this might be our President’s prayer? 

As I pray this day for my President, I ask the Lord to build a hedge around him and his family, protect and guard his soul, and give him victory over his many enemies in all areas of his life.  I pray that our President will understand his only refuge is in Christ, who loves him and wants to bless his leadership.  I pray that he will not lean on his own understanding but look to Jesus for direction through the many minefields that are set for him.

I do find it of interest that the more they attack our President, the better he does in the polls.  Maybe the people of the USA are getting sick of the arrogance and childlikeness of the democrat party, and those in DC that believe they are a law to themselves.  Maybe it is time to put some of these people who have broken our laws into prison.

Now let me be clear, I often wish that President Trump would go to the Lord, and not attack back, but maybe he has not yet learned that our Lord will fight for him.  But who am I to be his judge, for we are instructed to “Judge not, lest you be judged?”  You may say you just judged the many in the press and the Democrat party, and I do not believe I did, their actions have been evident to anyone with an open mind.

But on this one prayer of David about Israel and it is also my prayer for Israel, and I believe our President would agree.  But I also would pray that Christian people would awake and pray, to bring us back to be a people who fear God’s judgment and want to obey Him and receive His blessings.
