One Minute Speech Given in Recognition of the Guest Chaplain:
I thank my pastor, Pastor Travis O'Neal, for coming to open the House with prayer this morning.
He has pastored Christ Fellowship Church for roughly the last 8 years in Port St. Lucie, Florida. He makes sure that there is a home and a place for people to find the Lord and to grow in their walk with the Lord to make disciples.
I thank the pastor for his prayer, and I ask that we heed the words that he said to us this morning that we seek the Lord's counsel.
I ask that his prayer be granted that the Lord's hand guide us in our work here, and most of all, I ask that the Lord fulfill what the pastor prayed for, which is that God bless the United States of America.
Opening Prayer Given by the Guest Chaplain:
Dear Heavenly Father, for hundreds of years, You have guided the men and women in this room. For hundreds of years, prayers have been prayed from this pulpit, and You have faithfully and consistently answered many of those prayers.
Today, Father, we humbly come before You and we collectively say thank You. Thank You for those answered prayers, and thank You for Your favor and blessing that has so clearly rested on this great Nation.
I pray that the men and women in this room will tune their hearts and minds toward Heaven. Protect them, Lord, speak to them, encourage them, and give them wisdom in every decision they make. May they always look to You for guidance as they make decisions that impact every American.
I pray for unity today, Lord, both in this room and outside this room, that from every corner of this country, people would unify around the truth of Your Word.
We are a grateful people today, and we continue to declare three words that have been long echoed in this room: God bless America.
In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
