Wow - I have a thrill from head to toe, hearing this:
http://www.deseretnews.com/article/865671560/Elder-Christofferson-offers-prayer-at-Trumps-presidential-inaugural-prayer-service.html
It is likely on youtube. I am just feeling the win of this whole thing. Already has annulled the TPP and is likely going to have the US Embassy to Israel in Jerusalem by this summer. On a Jubilee year - this is epic. I am on cloud nine.
My wife who never really got into this election has wept over several things. So have I - since I have had my hope for this nation restored since last November. Pray for the demise of Soros. He has openly said at Davos that he will take Trump down. We need every prayer warrior fighting this battle with and for Trump, who is finally for WE THE PEOPLE - not his own narcissistic agenda.
No matter how the lamestreammedia lies about it - the truth is pretty clear to me. PC is out the door. The one word "odor" is getting aired out and the swamp is starting to trickle out.
Never cease praying and having a prayer in your heart for restored greatness.
If you are a millennial in yo momma's basement with no prospects and crushing student loan debt, do the same. You will finally have a shot at a job. It will be epic.
"Elder Christofferson "read a prayer adapted from an Episcopal text read at George Washington’s inaugural service rather than a Mormon text."The reason is that he used the exact same prayer given 12 years ago to the day at the second presidential inaugural prayer service for George W. Bush. The speaker that day was Bishop G.E. Patterson, presiding bishop of the Church of God in Christ in Memphis, Tennessee.
ReplyDeletePatterson adapted the prayer both from the "Book of Common Prayer 1979" And from "A Prayer for our Civil Rulers," which was read at President George Washington’s inaugural prayer service in 1789."
He re-read the same prayer that was given for George Bush, which partly came from a prayer for George Washington. I think the words of the prayer are appropriate for Trump. "Grant to Donald John Trump, president of the United States, and to all in authority, thy grace and favor, GIVE THEM WISDOM AND STRENGTH TO KNOW AND DO THY WILL. Endue them with thy heavenly gifts. Fill them with the love of TRUTH AND RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND MAKE THEM EVER MINDFUL OF THEIR CALLING TO SERVE THIS PEOPLE IN THY FEAR;through Jesus Christ...

I hope he continues to drain the swamp, however I pray that his ego and arrogance will not backfire against us. Very grateful our apostle prayed for him.
Yes, I too, hope his ego will not get in the way but now I'm dreaming. He's like a kid in a Candy Store given his background and now sitting in the Oval Office.
ReplyDeleteMichelle Obama was criticized for her expression when Melania Trump presented her with a gift when the Trumps arrived for the Obama's Coffee/Tea event on Inauguration day.
What was her expression really all about? What the camera didn't show at that time was that Trump got out of the car ahead of his wife and left her trailing behind as he walked up to meet the Obamas without her.
I noticed this sort of candor during the debates. He did the same thing, leaving her behind in the crowd while other candidates stayed close to their wives showing them respect and that no one is more important to have by their side.
Not saying I like the Obamas in the LEAST, ok? Let's get that straight......no pun intended.
I know what the scriptures say. Things are going to get bad. REALLY BAD! The NWO with Satan's help will have no recourse but to open a can of Raid on who bugs them the most right now.
Even then, God is still in control. Never lose sight that it IS God who is ALWAYS in control. He holds your life in His hands every second of every day. Did you thank Him that you woke up this morning? He did that. Did you thank Him that your heart continues to beat without fail beat after beat after beat and He knows the number of beats you will have all your life? He does that. The sun, who obeys Him, rose today that gives light and life to the world. The same Light that emanates from the presence of God. Without it, there is NO existence that can be sustained. Did you thank Him for that?
Our God who loves and respects our Mother, His wife, so much that He will not allow His sinful children to know and speak her name in a moment of blasphemy. A High Priestess He considers His equal.
Trump is a test to see who gets giddy about a new "savior" in the White House and thinking all is well in America and thus, forgetting the God of their fathers who parts the sea at just the right time for His people to escape the wrath of their enemies. The same God who can feed, water, clothe, shelter, and fully protect you from the elements and all danger in the desert for 40 years if He has to.
So enjoy the Trump pseudo honeymoon before the Tribulation begins. He's an instrument of God carrying a big stick who just knocked the hornets nest out of the tree and pushed the first domino.
Trump is reeling in the false hopes of the restoration of a nation that can only be saved by Divine Intervention and not this Cyrus wanna be. This nation's people as in general, are meant to be destroyed by God, who claims the entire world is in worse shape than the Days of Noah and needs to be cleansed of sin before the second coming arrives.
ReplyDeleteTrump certainly does represent the sentiments of a good portion of our country who are mainly concerned with preserving what little material wealth we have left and grow upon that. Obama wanted to relieve us of all that and hand it over to undeserving recipients.
If Trump truly is our saving grace, then where is the talk of the need for repentance as a nation, rather than his saying we are Great and that "Greatness" needs to be restored ? And NONE of that "Greatness" he mentions, refers to a need for repentance of our sins against God, but rather engenders a defiant uprising toward the left.
Does this not sound like the two major parties of Mormon's day, who tore each other apart ? Both feeling that each was justified over the other. If anything at all comes from that story, who came out on the very bottom of that encounter and whom was Moroni speaking to when he saw our day and warned us not to repeat the mistakes they had made ?
Sounds to me like Trump is taking us on a journey to a blood lust encounter with our enemies, like the Nephite leaders coached a blood lust mentality from the Nephites in their hatred for the Lamanites.....The Worst of whom our enemy has become, is ourselves. And for that...God will punish us, just as he did the Nephites.
