"Today we pray for America and we pray for all parliamentarians around the world. The book of Timothy teaches us that you've been entrusted with leadership. Today we pray for the future of this nation, and that you would lead this president into greater levels of compassion for your namesake. We pray that you would protect him from the inequities of evil, that you would give him greater clarity, greater courage, and greater capacity to do what is right in forever challenges."
"Today we remind him that the lives of millions of people are in his hands, and that he has the power to turn mourning into dancing or to reduce the country into a cosmic elegy of chaos and suffering. And it is because of this that we pray, that the best of this president would rise among us. For the sake of this nation, for the sake of this world, we pray that goodness and mercy would announce themselves in his life."
President Donald Trump spoke for an hour at the National Prayer Breakfast. Rep. Jonathan Jackson followed with a prayer asking God to protect the president from the inequities of evil and to grant him greater clarity, courage, and capacity. Jackson invoked the book of Timothy and urged compassion for the nation. He warned that millions of lives are in the president's hands and that leadership can turn mourning into dancing or reduce the country to chaos and suffering. Jackson prayed for goodness and mercy to rise in the president, urged mindfulness of the poor, and referenced suffering on Midwest farms and families burying loved ones in Minneapolis.
