President Donald Trump signed an executive order this week to launch the Great American Recovery Initiative to address substance use disorder.
The White House explained that the initiative will “coordinate a national response to the disease of addiction across government, healthcare, faith communities, and the private sector in order to save lives, restore families, strengthen our communities, and build the Great American Recovery.”
“The disease of addiction, also known as substance use disorder, is a crisis that touches families in every community and neighborhood in our Nation,” President Trump stated. “Over the past year, we have made incredible progress in stopping the inflow of illegal drugs that threaten American communities. We must now supplement that work by furthering a national effort to prioritize addiction treatment and recovery.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For President Trump as he endeavors to reduce addiction and addresses the opioid crisis.
- For wisdom for the president and members of his Cabinet as they implement the executive order.
- For Americans who struggle with addiction, and their families, to get the help they need.

Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power. – Revelation 4:11
The James Webb Space Telescope was launched into orbit above Earth’s atmosphere in 2021. It is one of the greatest and most versatile research tools for astronomy. The images it has transmitted since its launch are a wonder to behold.
Nehemiah 9:6 states, “You are the Lord, you alone. You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is in it, the seas and all that is in them; and you preserve all of them; and the host of heaven worship you.” The Christian Standard Bible renders the last part of the verse this way: “And all the stars of heaven worship you.” Think about that the next time you look into a starry night.
If even the stars worship the Lord who made them, is there any creation anywhere that should not do the same? Psalm 96:9 directs you to “Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness.” There is no one higher, no one greater, no one more worthy of your worship. Bow before Him today. It is your only right response. Ask God to use the things of nature to reveal more of Himself to the men and women of the United States and those who are in government, so that in finding Him, they might receive humility, seek to know Him more, put their faith in the Lord, and worship Him alone.

Oh sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth!
2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples!
4 For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
8 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering, and come into his courts!
9 Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth!
10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!
Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved;
he will judge the peoples with equity.”
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
12 let the field exult, and everything in it!
Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy
13 before the Lord, for he comes,
for he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness,
and the peoples in his faithfulness.All Scripture quotations and audio are from the ESV® Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version®), copyright © 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers. Used by permission. All rights reserved.
