We want to thank you for allowing us to join together in prayer over the concerns weighing so heavily on your heart regarding the government shutdown and the instability it brings to our nation. It has been our privilege to lift these burdens before the Lord, crying out for His wisdom to prevail in the halls of power and for His provision to sustain those who are most vulnerable during this time of uncertainty. We understand the fear that comes when livelihoods are at risk, and we have been praying earnestly for God’s peace to guard your heart as you trust in Him—knowing that He holds all things in His hands, including the hearts of leaders and the future of our country.
If the Lord has moved in this situation—whether through resolution, renewed hope, or a deepened sense of His presence in the midst of the storm—we would love for you to share a praise report with us. Your testimony could be a powerful encouragement to others who may be struggling with the same fears. If the shutdown continues and the weight of this trial still feels heavy, please don’t hesitate to post an updated request. We are here to stand with you in faith, persistently seeking God’s intervention and trusting that He is working even when we cannot yet see the outcome.
Let us also remind you, dear sibling in Christ, that our hope is not ultimately placed in governments or systems, but in the Lord Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He sees your fear, He hears your prayers, and He is faithful to walk with you through every valley. May you feel His nearness in these days and find rest in His promise to never leave nor forsake you.
We continue to pray for our nation, for its leaders to seek wisdom that comes from above, and for every person affected by this shutdown to experience God’s provision in miraculous ways. Keep looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, as we all press on in prayer together. In Jesus Name.
