At IFA, we’ve been praying regularly for the President and his administration, as well as the nation as a whole, for years. We’ve been praying for law and order, for wise leaders, and for our nation to return to Christ. And, in his address, President Trump touched on all of these points.
Throughout his address, President Trump announced a new retirement program proposal, unveiled an energy deal with data centers and big tech, presented medals to several American heroes, highlighted his economic agenda, announced a war on fraud, backed a bill banning congressional stock trading, and teased a future in which tariffs may replace income tax. Addressing guests, lawmakers, and elected officials, he proudly announced that the U.S. is “bigger, richer, and stronger than ever before.”
Of course, detractors did attempt to protest the President’s speech. Democratic lawmakers in attendance refused to applaud, and one lawmaker even shouted at the President at one point. Nevertheless, Tuesday night’s address was characterized by success, patriotism, and answered prayer.
Plus, answered prayer wasn’t just present during the speech. Administration officials reportedly joined together in prayer just before the President’s address. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard posted about this on X, explaining that the cabinet members “joined together in prayer, giving all thanks and praise to God, and praying for the clarity and strength to listen to Him, serve Him, and do His will.”
The quiet moments are often the most important. Last night just before Cabinet members walked onto the House floor for the President’s State of the Union, we joined together in prayer, giving all thanks and praise to God, and praying for the clarity and strength to listen to Him,… pic.twitter.com/Hx8jTxi7fa

President Trump’s first year was quite eventful. Now, his second year (which is also America’s 250th anniversary) promises to be even more eventful. Let’s pray that our leaders in the Trump administration continue to seek the Lord for wisdom, and let’s pray for His will to be done!
