| Well, up next, highlights from the second inauguration of Donald Trump, which took place on January 20th, 2025. | ||
| First, we'll show you the swearing-in ceremony at the U.S. Capitol, followed by the Commander-in-Chief Ball, and then President Trump's executive order signing event in the Oval Office. | ||
| Be still and know that I am God, supreme among the nations, supreme on the earth. | ||
| Let us pray. | ||
| Remembering General George Washington on his knees at Valley Forge, recalling Abraham Lincoln at his second inaugural, with malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right. | ||
| Remembering General George Patton's instructions to his soldiers as they began the Battle of the Bulge eight decades ago. | ||
| Pray, pray when fighting, pray alone, pray with others, pray by night, pray by day. | ||
| Observing the birthday of the Reverend Martin Luther King, who warned, without God, our efforts turn to ashes. | ||
| We blessed citizens of this one nation under God, humbled by our claim that in God we trust, gather indeed this inauguration day to pray for our President Donald J. Trump, his family, his advisors, his cabinet, his aspirations, his vice president. | ||
| For the Lord's blessings upon Joseph Biden, for our men and women in uniform, for each other whose hopes are stoked this new year, this inauguration day. | ||
| We cannot err in relying upon that prayer from the Bible upon which our president will soon place his hand in oath as we make our own the supplications of King Solomon for wisdom as he began his governance. | ||
| God of our fathers, in your wisdom you set man to govern your creatures, to govern in holiness and justice, to render justice with integrity. | ||
| Give our leader wisdom, for he is your servant, aware of his own weakness and brevity of life. | ||
| If wisdom which comes not from you be not with him, he shall be held in no esteem. | ||
| Send wisdom from heavens that she may be with him, that he may know your designs. | ||
| Please, God, bless America. | ||
| Please mend her every flaw. | ||
| You are the God in whom we trust who lives and reigns forever and ever. | ||
| Mr. President, the last four years, there are times I'm sure you thought it was pretty dark. | ||
| But look what God has done. | ||
| We praise him and give him glory. | ||
| Let us pray. | ||
| Our Father and our God, thou hast said, blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. | ||
| As the prophet Daniel prayed, blessed be the name of God forever and ever. | ||
| For wisdom and might are his. | ||
| He changes the times and the seasons. | ||
| He removes kings. | ||
| He raises up kings. | ||
| He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding. | ||
| Our Father, today, As President Donald J. Trump takes the oath of office once again, we come to say thank you, O Lord our God. | ||
| Father, when Donald Trump's enemies thought he was down and out, you and you alone saved his life and raised him up with strength and power by your mighty hand. | ||
| We pray for President Trump that you'll watch over, protect, guide, direct him. | ||
| Give him your wisdom from your throne on high. | ||
| We ask that you would bless him and that our nation would be blessed through him. | ||
| We also ask that you would bless and protect Melania as First Lady. | ||
| We thank you for the beauty, the warmth, and grace that she shows not only to this nation, but to the whole world. | ||
| We thank you for Vice President-elect JD Vance and his wife Usha and their young family. | ||
| May he be a strength to President Trump, to stand beside him, to hold up his arms like Aaron held up the arms of Moses in the midst of battle. | ||
| The prophet Samuel reminded the people, it was you that brought them up from the land of Egypt. | ||
| And he said, now, stand still that I may reason with you before the Lord. | ||
| So Father, we take this moment to stand still, to remember the great things that you have done for this nation. | ||
| Thank you for the protection, the bounty, the freedoms that we so enjoy. | ||
| We remember to keep our eyes fixed on you and may our hearts be inclined to your voice. | ||
| We know that America can never be great again if we turn our backs on you. | ||
| We ask for your help and we pray all of this in the name of the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, your Son, my Savior, and our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. | ||
| Amen. | ||
