This beautifully designed, 8‑page 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. Shipping begins this week and quantities are limited - REQUEST YOURS TODAY.

Thank you for praying with us today. Here is your Daily Prayer Briefing.
THE DAILY PRAYER BRIEFING

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is encouraging the U.S. Senate to pass the CLARITY Act. The legislation, passed by the House of Representatives last summer, would create federal regulation for digital assets, which would facilitate cryptocurrency development and investment in the U.S.

Secretary Bessent stated, "The regulatory framework for digital asset markets is unclear. A growing share of crypto development [has] relocated to places with clear rules, such as Abu Dhabi and Singapore. Abroad, firms knew when and how to register, what standards to meet, and how to operate. The benefits of domiciling in the U.S. rarely outweighed the risks."

The Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, chaired by Senator Roger Wicker of Mississippi and Representative Joe Wilson of South Carolina, will receive a briefing today on Vatican diplomacy in an age of estrangement, power politics, and war.
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us ...
  • For Secretary Bessent as he advocates for cryptocurrency regulation by the Senate.
  • For Majority Leader Thune to act with discernment and integrity as he presides over the U.S. Senate.
  • For wisdom for President Trump and members of his Cabinet as they seek to encourage economic growth in the nation.
