Do you feel a sense of victory after this last election? If so, for many, the temptation is to sit back, rest, and cease from our contending. But, I encourage you today not to rest from your prayers, but rather to redouble your efforts.

Although the American people won many victories for the cause of righteousness in this election, the enemy would love to stop our newly elected leaders from taking office.

That is why we must continue to pray. Only God—the One who brought us the victories we are standing on today—can preserve those victories and bring people into office. In order to see that happen, we must pray.

Would you join with us today in praying the following prayer points for President-elect Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance, and their families and team?

Let's pray as follows:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You in Jesus' name.

Father, we thank You for moving in our nation in this last election. We thank You that many righteous people were elected, and that You turned so many hearts toward Your wisdom—even for people who do not yet know You.

Father, now that the results of the election are in, we would be remiss if we did not lift up the transitional period to You.

You have moved and helped us, but we still need more of Your help. Your Word says that we cannot do anything without You, so we are desperately needy for You in all things.

Lord, in Jesus' name, we pray for the current period of transitions between one government and another:

• Bless and protect President-elect Trump and his family, as well as Vice President-elect JD Vance and his family. Keep them safe from all harm and danger.
• If any plots or traps have been set against the newly elected President and Vice President, or their staff, cabinet, or families, then we pray that You would expose those machinations of the enemy and bring them to nothing.
• Keep the new leaders and their cabinets safe from inappropriate surveillance, wiretapping, or illegitimate observation of any kind.
• Deliver them from every kind of interference set up by unrighteous people who do not love our nation, and who do not have our nation's best interests at heart.
• Give the new leaders and their transitional team great wisdom from on high.
• Pour out the anointing of the sons of Issachar on them. Help them to know the times and the seasons, to know what our nation ought to do.
• Remove every barrier, hindrance, and obstacle that would even attempt to prevent President Trump from being inaugurated and seated as the 47th President of the United States.
• Let the transition of government remain entirely peaceful. In the name of Jesus, we bind off riots and violence of every type in Jesus' name, and we LOOSE peace on earth, good will to men, into our nation—and into this governmental transition.
• Destroy and utterly obliterate every spiritual attack against President Trump, VP-elect Vance, and their families and teams.
• We ask that You would double and even triple the contingent of Your angels that are assigned to President Trump and his entire team.
• Please open every door that needs to be opened for them as they transition into governmental power.
• Close every door and avenue that needs to be closed. If these new leaders even try to go down any path that is not Your highest or most perfect will, send an angel with a flaming sword to turn them back from that wrong path.
• Give them favor everywhere they go, so they may accomplish Your purposes without further delay.
• We ask You to give President Trump and his team witty inventions and creative ideas by Your Spirit. Give them divine strategies that have never been used on earth before, but which will perfectly accomplish Your will in our nation for this time.
• Give them courage, Lord, and strengthen them in You—and in the power of Your might.

Holy Father, we thank You that You are not a distant God.

Instead, You are near—and You do involve Yourself with the affairs of men. Our nation was formed for Your purposes, and that You have not left us and never will.

Therefore, in this time, Father, we pray that Your Kingdom would come and Your will would be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Help President Trump and his team, Lord. Bring them to Yourself. For any who do not yet know You, we pray that You would pour out Your Spirit upon them and bring them to salvation in Christ Jesus.

Thank You, Heavenly Father. In Jesus' name we pray, amen."

Friend, even if we feel a great sense of victory, we must not stop praying.

Our enemy still prowls the earth, seeking whom he may devour ... BUT GOD. Our God is still greater, still stronger, and still has the last laugh. He is the Alpha and the Omega; He is both the First Word and the Last Word, and His will is going to happen ... if we will continue praying. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
