I Prayed have prayed
Lord God Almighty, it is disheartening to see the all the legal battles that are waging in our country, reflecting the division we see everywhere. Help us, Father!

Has it seemed to you that President Trump’s Administration has been sued by a lot of State Attorneys General? Here are the facts. The statistics are staggering–103 lawsuits have been filed against the Trump Administration in the last 3 years, which is more than twice the number against President Obama over his 8 years. This Administration has really been attacked.

We found a fascinating website, AttorneysGeneral.org, that has interactive charts detailing how many lawsuits have been filed against Presidents and their Administrations, all the way back to Reagan. this is how they describe what’s going on:

Suing the federal government has become the most prominent form of coordinated national AG (Attorney General) activism in recent years.

Coalitions of AGs have sued the Trump Administration repeatedly across a range of issues, such as on immigration, health care, and environmental policy. These coalitions have been led mainly by Democratic AGs, such as Washington State’s Bob Ferguson, pictured above. During the Obama Administration, however, it was mostly Republican coalitions bringing these coordinated efforts, mostly famously challenging the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act.

The prominence of coordinated multistate lawsuits to challenge federal policy is a relatively recent phenomenon. While states have a long history of suing the federal government, these were typically single-state efforts claiming specific harm to that state. Now, partisan coalitions of AGs have used multistate lawsuits as a way to both block federal policies and to prompt national action.”

The website has a page with fascinating interactive graphics–we encourage you to go there and play around with the information. What may not be immediately obvious to you is the staggering cost associated with the staggering number of lawsuits. In these instances, the state Attorneys General are using state resources, funded by state tax dollars, to sue the federal government which defends the lawsuit with federal resources, funded by federal tax dollars.

We want to know what you think!

Dear Lord God Almighty,

The world of man is not your world. America appears to be Satan’s playground; as always may the human world recognize the true Light, and the true world of your decree.
Guide those in government toward your heavenly will. May your justice befall those within government who reject sound and wise counsel to bring injustice, and harm to those whom have recieved your anointment and blessing to lead America to becoming “the Nation of the Lord”. In the Name of Jesus, we offer our supplication.

I live in California & conservatives are largely outnumbered here. Many of them have fled the State over recent years. Unfortunately, our votes seem to not count here as the result. I would love to leave, as well, but for some reason the Lord has asked us to stay behind. We have grandkids in the public school systems & much prayer is required not only for them but for every person in that system, teachers included. It is a battlefield. Please keep those of us left behind in your prayers.

He won the battle with Gideon & just 300 men. He can use the small number of those left behind here in California to show the power of God & win against the plans of the enemy bringing glory to God. Judge 7.

But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”
Mark 10:27 | NKJV

So Be It! AMEN

Father, There is a spirit of lawlessness in our nation. And the battle is on so many fronts that it is hard to keep up. Thank you for this information and help us to know how to respond as good citizens. Please Continue to raise up people who are willing to run for office who will rely on you and seek your face. Please let us see your hand as those who lived during the days of the revolution. We pray that new leaders would be elected who follow the rule of law. Help voters to be made aware of decisions their state leaders are making and help them to turn out in large numbers to vote.Don’t let these renegade leaders be able to run uncontested. As we think about all of these battles we realize that the larger battle is the one for the soul of our nation. We pray that people would return to you. May there be a move of conviction of sin and righteousness and judgement. May people once again be awakened to your glory and holiness. May there once again be fear of the coming judgement. May the gospel go forth in all its fullness and the glory and joy that awaits us be made known.

The state of CA. has been acting like a rebellious teenager towards President Trump since the day he began his presidency, and they have the odacity to raise our gas taxes to fund these ridiculous actions. I really don’t know when the people of CA will wake up and vote them out of office and elect so competent, mature, people of integrity.

    Father God,
    I pray that the eyes, ears, hearts and minds of all Californians will be opened to Your truth; that the veil of darkness and deceit will be torn off; and that a mighty cleansing and redeeming move of God will be released across the state.
    I ask and believe that You can and will do all this because of Jesus and His sacrifice on the cross for us.
    Amen.
