Pastor prays for Trump to have 'supernatural wisdom'
The Hill ^ | 13 Oct 2018 | ALEXANDER BOLTON

Newly freed American pastor Andrew Brunson prayed over President Trump in the Oval Office and asked God to fill the president with “supernatural wisdom,” after returning to the U.S. on Saturday for the first time in nearly two years.

Trump quipped that he probably needs prayer more than anyone else in the room, which included Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, national security adviser John Bolton and several senators.

Brunson kneeled next to Trump, who remained sitting in an armchair, and put his hand on the president’s shoulder as he prayed with head bowed and eyes closed.

“Lord God, I ask that you pour out your Holy Spirit on President Trump, that you give him supernatural wisdom to accomplish all the plans you have for this country and for him,” Brunson said.

“I ask that you give him wisdom in how to lead this country into righteousness. I ask that you give him perseverance and endurance and courage to stand for truth. I ask that you protect him from slander from enemies, from those who would undermine,” he continued.

After the prayer, Brunson’s wife, Norine Brunson, added her own prayer, asking for “the spirit of the Lord” to rest on the president. Trump then jokingly asked her who she voted for in the last presidential election.

“Could I ask you one question? Who did you vote for?” Trump quipped, and then pointed to himself with a smile. “I knew the answer.”

Andrew Brunson then chimed in with a joke of his own.

“I would like to say I sent an absentee ballot from prison,” he said as Trump slapped him on the knee.

I was thinking while watching that today that it would be totally unimaginable with Obama.

Trump really, truly GETS THINGS DONE. It’s quite amazing.

So happy this man has been released from prison, I hope he will stay in the good old USA from now on!

But, let me just say this one thing, out of a spirit of reconciliation, he seems to be in good health, so the Turks don’t look like insane fiends to the world. And I sincerely hope that they are not.

Paul was in prison for a couple of years also. Only God knows how many are in heaven because of it.

“But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear” (Philippians 1:12-14).

A prayer of “supernatural wisdom” for President Trump is a fantastic idea. Everyone chime in with the request.

It’s God’s wisdom. The Holt Spirit gives gifts from God, bit in thos case, God’s wisdom is made available to a man. It’s God’s desire to give this to anone who asks.

Frae of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

President Trump has often had pastors and others in for prayer...

hes a very humble man and welcomes the prayers of men and women of God...

Supernatural wisdom sounds good to me. Obama only knew what he saw in the news.

Amen

Oh, Obama probably prayed alright.

On a rug. Five times a day. Facing Mecca.

Praise God and our Lord Jesus Christ we have Trump in the White House!
