The 3-Prong Prayer Strategy To Ensure God’s Will Is Done in the White House

Their mission: “appealing to heaven to change the spiritual climate in our nation.”

The basic strategy revolves around a period of prayer-walking, fasting and corporate prayer events that will run from January 20 – April 29.
“President Trump has an aggressive 100-day policy. If we do not lift our voice in prayer for this president and his policies, then we will not have a right to complain about what happens during this time frame,” according to the ministry. “Not only that, but we are commanded to intercede first for those in authority over us that we can lead a quiet and peaceable life (1 Tim. 2:1-3).”
The coalition includes well-known evangelical leaders Dutch Sheets, Lou Engle from the National Prayer Committee and Mike and Cindy Jacobs of Generals International.
The vision for the 100 days of prayer was birthed after a meeting of leaders hosted by Dick Eastman at the International headquarters of Every Home for Christ.
