We are deeply grateful for you and your commitment to join with us in prayer for our nation and its leaders.

Not always do we report clear answers to prayer -- but today, as our team faithfully lifts up our President, leaders, and nation every single day, we rejoice that God allowed the revealing and thwarting of what could have been a major attack on Washington and our country.

Authorities uncovered a plot involving at least 23 individuals who planned an attack on Washington, D.C. (read the full story below). Praise God that one of the plotters was arrested in California after his mother, alarmed by his concerning behavior, firearms purchases, and online communications, had the courage to alert authorities.

We are deeply thankful to God for His constant watchcare over Washington, our President, and our entire nation. As Psalm 127:1 reminds us, "Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain." What could have been a devastating day was stopped before it began -- a powerful testimony to the Lord's protection and the power of persistent prayer.
