We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“I saw in the night visions, and behold, with the clouds of heaven
there came one like a son of man, and He came to the Ancient of Days and was presented before Him.
And to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom,
that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him;
His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away,
and His kingdom one that shall not be destroyed.”
Daniel 7:13-14
We sing: Ancient of Days
Blessing and Honor, Glory and Power, be unto the Ancient of Days!
From every nation, all of creation, bow before the Ancient of Days!
Every tongue in heaven and earth shall declare Your glory,
every knee shall bow at Your throne In worship
You will be exalted, oh God, and Your kingdom shall not pass away, Oh ancient of days.
Your kingdom shall reign over all the earth, sing unto the Ancient of Days!
For none can compare to Your matchless worth. sing unto the Ancient of Days!
Every tongue in heaven and earth shall declare Your glory,
every knee shall bow at Your throne In worship
You will be exalted, oh God, and Your kingdom shall not pass away, Oh, Ancient of Days!
Oh, Ancient of Days! Oh, Ancient of Days!
~~~
For us to receive and put on the Ephesians 6 “full armor of God” as we begin this hour,
that we might be protected as we stand in the gap for our country!
Pray.
The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly
for the safety and security of our duly elected President, Donald John Trump,
and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for his protection, his restoration to his rightful office, and that he is led by the Holy Spirit
so that he will discern truth and act for the good of the nation.
We bless our First Lady, Melania, their marriage and family, and cover them all with the Blood of Jesus.
Pray.
For all those working to expose the fraud and corruption of our elections!
Let those leaders that God anoints and appoints
take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol!
Pray.
We will now spend the next 10 minutes praying for President Trump.
Pray.

We continue today with Part 2 of information on the release and publication of certain WPATH files…a series of internal communications revealing that the World Professional Association of Transgender Health (WPATH) was not only aware of “debilitating” and “potentially fatal” effects of gender transition procedures but continued promoting the practice to children anyway.
Puberty Blockers Although WPATH’s guidelines recommend prescribing puberty blockers, claiming that the drugs’ effects are “fully reversible,” WPATH experts said otherwise.
Dr. Scott Leibowitz, a WPATH board member, said, “I think when we just say, ‘Oh, puberty blockers are just reversible and it’s a very noninvasive treatment,’ I would say it’s more invasive than often times the media makes it out to be or other people.” He added that when WPATH says that the effects of puberty
blockers are reversible, it’s accompanied by “asterisks.” He explained, “One cannot be on puberty suppression endlessly. You get to a place where physiologically we need hormones.”
WPATH-certified endocrinologist Dr. Daniel Metzger admitted that the effect of puberty blockers on children’s brain development is unknown. “Obviously teenagers, their brains are changing. They’re unwiring, they’re rewiring. And if we’ve started one kid unwiring and half rewiring, and then we changed their puberty the other way and we’re unwiring, people have been trying to figure out what this does for kids’ brains.” Metzger also talked about the effect of puberty blockers on children’s fertility. “Kids have zero idea about their fertility. Of course, it’s not in the mind of a 13-year-old or 15-year-old or even a 17-year-old because, you know, babies are icky, and you can just go to a store and adopt later on, right? A little bit of what we know is from little girls who get cancer. They try to do whatever they can in a very fast fashion to preserve that girl’s fertility for down the road after she’s cured from her cancer. I don’t think a lot is known about that still, for, say a 10-year-old assigned female. I don’t think we know.”
Pray.
Mental Health WPATH experts also explained that, contrary to transgender activist talking points, gender transition procedures do not alleviate mental health issues.
Leibowitz said: “I always say to my patients now that we’re starting testosterone or estrogen, now you can finally have mental health problems. And it’s really important, because then parents don’t approach the kids saying ‘How come you’re having mental health problems? We thought that that testosterone was going to be the answer?’”Leibowitz went on to call into question the need to base medicine on evidence. “Regardless of the evidence base, as I said, evidence is one part of this, but also there’s an ethical human rights component to treating people. We don’t rely on evidence for every single treatment we do in medicine,” he said. “We have to look at the whole thing. Ethics, human rights, justice for trans people.” Pray.
Gail Knudson, the current co-chair of WPATH’s Global Education Institute, referred to a WPATH-funded
study that she acknowledged did not support the claim that gender transition procedures alleviated mental health issues. “Does gender affirming hormone therapy decrease anxiety and depression?” Knudson asked. “This was a really interesting meta-analysis that they did, actually for the Standards of Care. And what they found was that when you looked at these different studies, that the strength of significance was low.” She continued, “Because we all know in this audience that … people have a better quality of life, depressive symptoms decrease, anxiety decreases. But what we’re trying to do for the researchers is really develop much more robust research protocols so it’s much more measurable.” Knudson additionally claimed that “people with diagnoses on the schizophrenia spectrum” have the mental competency to consent to gender transition procedures, including genital mutilation surgery. “It’s a bit different though when people who are on the schizophrenia spectrum, whereas when they have a long-term illness in many cases, [after] following them for a long period of time and [becoming] well known to the team, they do have a capacity to consent for treatment, for hormones, for surgery, and, of course, [that] is depending case by case.” Knudson also noted that psychotic symptoms often persist after gender transition procedures. “Consider admission to a psychiatric ward unit instead of a surgical ward for extra psychological assistance, post-operatively, after a person has had surgery and is stable. It’s actually putting a lot of wrap-around care in place.” Pray.
Dr. Chris Booth, a child and adolescent psychiatrist, went even further, arguing that psychotic symptoms should not prevent children from being placed on hormone drugs. “I’ve had trans masculine [biologically female] individuals who’ve come in with psychotic symptoms, and then the treating psychiatrist wants to stop their hormones,” he said, alluding to concerns that hormone drugs may worsen children’s mental health. “I try to explain to them that having them resume menses [menstruation] would likely be a much greater detriment than having them remain on their hormone therapy.” Booth also condemned the “stigma” surrounding gender dysphoria, arguing that the disorder is not a disorder. “Suggesting that you need psychotherapy for being gender-diverse is implying that there is a mental disorder and there’s the implication about the gate-keeping that used to exist,” he said. Pray.
Meanwhile, Metzger admitted that the use of hormone drugs can actually make psychotic symptoms “a little bit worse.” He said, “I have had a few kids with schizophrenia who do notice that if they push their testosterone too much that it seems to them that it makes things a little bit worse.” He added, “So, the patients who have schizophrenia are doing well on their meds. So, they will sometimes moderate their dose a little bit just to keep the voices down or whatever the bad symptom is.” Pray.
We pray:
That members of the medical community would value life more than mammon, and serve their patient’s best interests rather than ascribing to these vile, life altering positions! Pray.
That parents, supported by the government, will protect the rights of children to live and grow up unaltered… according to their natural sex at birth! Pray.
That the people of our nation will stand alongside President Trump, and remain engaged in this BATTLE TO SAVE AMERICA until VICTORY is won! Pray.
Protect and strengthen our 24/7 family and bring in new intercessors (like our dear Samoan brothers and sisters) who are called to this assignment with us, to pray for our President and our beloved nation! Prepare us for our NEXT STEPS in this Battle to Save America! Pray.
