Dear Prayer Team Member,

Though you cannot fully understand God, He completely understands you! He loves you and loves it when you cast your cares upon Him. As you pray today, know that He hears you and knows the deepest desires of your heart, even when you struggle to put them into words.

The National Day of Prayer is May 7th and the official 2026 National Day of Prayer guide is now available to request. This beautifully designed resource is ideal for small groups, churches, and family prayer times as we prepare to kneel as a nation before God in united petition and praise. REQUEST YOURS HERE.

Thank you for praying with us today. Here is your Daily Prayer Briefing.

THE DAILY PRAYER BRIEFING

Today is President Donald Trump's deadline for the Iranian regime to agree on a peace deal.

President Trump Announces Strikes on Iran

President Trump stated that if the regime does not open the Strait of Hormuz, "Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!"

The president told journalists that Iran has "to do certain things. They ​know that, they've been negotiating, I think, in good faith." He indicated there would be no new extension of his timeline. "Highly unlikely. They've had plenty ‌of ⁠time. In fact, they asked for seven days. I said, I'm going to give you 10. But at the end of 10, all hell's going to break out if you don't get there."

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us ...
  • For President Trump to seek God's guidance as he serves as commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces.
  • For discernment for Secretary Hegseth, General Caine and the Joint Chiefs, as CENTCOM Commander Admiral Cooper as they advise the president.
  • For the Lord's protection over U.S. soldiers, sailors, and airmen serving in the Middle East and around the world.
