U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright has issued an emergency order to ensure affordable, reliable, and secure electricity to the Northwestern U.S.
His order prioritizes minimizing the risk and costs of blackouts by ensuring that a Washington coal plant, which was scheduled to shut down at the end of the year, continues to operate.
Secretary Wright said that President Trump is reversing the “energy subtraction policies” of recent years, which were likely to cause more blackouts.
The secretary added, “The Trump administration will continue taking action to keep America’s coal plants running so we can stop the price spikes and ensure we don’t lose critical generation sources. Americans deserve access to affordable, reliable, and secure energy to heat their homes all the time, regardless of whether the wind is blowing or the sun is shining.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For prudence for Secretary Wright as he oversees the approvals of U.S. power plant operations.
- For discernment for President Trump and energy officials as they pursue energy goals.
- For the Lord to work out His will and purposes through the president’s administration.

- Your Redeemer Lives
For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the earth. – Job 19:25
Job was a righteous man who lost everything in a matter of 24 hours. However, he held onto faith in the Lord, though he did not know of the conversation between God and the devil. While Job struggled with the concept that the Lord could be against him, he firmly believed that in the end, he would one day see Him with his own eyes, even after his earthly body had decayed. Job maintained an affirmation of confidence when he said, “I know that my Redeemer lives.”
Thousands of years before Christ was born in Bethlehem, Job prophesied that Jesus would come and stand on the Earth. Centuries after Job, the prophet Isaiah described in detail how the Savior would die. The sacrificial system in the tabernacle even illustrated how the Messiah would become the Redeemer for the sins of His people.
The apostle Paul wrote, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:23-24).
Take time during this Christmas season to thank your Heavenly Father for the greatest Gift you could ever receive. The Creator of the universe came down to Earth as a vulnerable baby for the sole purpose of saving and delivering you from sin. The price that Christ paid was His life. Remember also that Jesus not only redeems you, but He will strengthen your faith during tough times. As you celebrate Him, pray that public servants on Capitol Hill will also say, with confidence, “I know that my Redeemer lives.”
Today’s Verse: Job 19:25

and at the last he will stand upon the earth.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.
Recommended for further reading: Hebrews 9:12-15
12 he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the sprinkling of defiled persons with the ashes of a heifer, sanctify for the purification of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.
15 Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred that redeems them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.
