THE DAILY PRAYER BRIEFING

President Donald Trump meets with President Xi Jinping of China today on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Cooperation conference in South Korea.

Presidents Trump Xi 2019

The two presidents will discuss trade negotiations and other mutual concerns.

"I think we're going have a deal, I think it will be a good deal for both, and that's really a great result," President Trump said at an APEC lunch meeting of APEC in the city of Gyeongju. "That's better than fighting and going through all sorts of problems. No reason for it."

President Trump said he expects to lower tariffs on Chinese imports to the U.S. if Beijing commits to reducing exports of the elements that go into fentanyl.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us ...
  • For President Trump to be prudent in his negotiations with Chinese President Xi.
  • For wisdom for the U.S. president as he works to prevent deadly drugs from entering the nation.
  • For the safety of President Trump as he flies back to Washington from South Korea.
