President Donald J. Trump opened his presidency with none other than a prayer event.
Attending the National Prayer Service, both President Trump and Vice President Vance made their way to the Washington National Cathedral. The event included interfaith prayers from Christian, Hindu and Islamic backgrounds.
The prayer opened up with a reading from Deuteronomy 10:17-21, and a playing of The Star Spangled Banner for a moment of reverence for the United States. During this time, Trump and Vance saluted to show respect for the nation. Prayers for Americans to use their liberty for good instead of evil went up, along with prayers for justice and wisdom.

“Grant to the President, Vice President and members of the cabinet wisdom and grace,” one clergy member prayed. “[An] exercise of their duties that they may serve all people of this nation, and promote the dignity and freedom of every person. Keep this nation under your care.”
Christian prayers for compassion and the leading of the Holy Spirit also went forth.
“Give them a spirit of grace and compassion to instill a love of learning…give us grace to do your will,” one prayed. “May your presence be manifest in all that we say and do.”
Pray for President Trump and his administration, that they may be encouraged by the truth of the Gospel, by genuine Christianity, and by seeking the only true Lord and Savior of all, Jesus Christ, who He alone can help them and truly lead our nation down the path of righteousness.
