The electors are slated to meet Dec. 19 in their home states to make the Nov. 8 election results official, which is normally a formality - but not this year.
Texas Republican Alex Kim said he and his fellow electors have been inundated with emails and phone calls from those urging them to consider switching their votes for Mr. Trump to Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
The unwillingness to accept election results by protests and violent threats is escalating to levels never seen in the history of our nation. Pray that the electors are not swayed by manipulation, but stand firm and have no fear of unprovoked attacks.
"Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain." (1 Cor. 15:58)

President Obama is heading into his administration's final weeks with a full agenda of new draft orders to consider, even though his successor has vowed to scale back job-killing regulation and cancel "all illegal and overreaching executive orders."
In transitioning from an old administration to a new one, federal agencies are preparing for numerous policy changes. As the government goes back and forth on last minute efforts to push their agenda through, pray for God fearing leaders who seek Him before proposing any new regulations and legislation.
"Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture." (Ps. 37:3)

While substantial, that number doesn't overcome Clinton's 2.2 million popular vote lead over Republican President-elect Donald Trump, who won a decisive Electoral College triumph of 306 to 232.
On Sunday, the president-elect tweeted he would have won the popular vote had it not been for illegal votes cast. The Trump transition team on Monday cited nonpartisan studies on noncitizens voting and of faulty voter registration across the country. Only citizens 18 or older can legally vote.
In a democracy, all eligible citizens are allowed to participate in the election process. Before this election, there was much speculation that ineligible voters would be casting ballots. Pray that this issue would be put to rest, and any fraud would be exposed and corrected before the next election cycle.
"There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known." (Luke 12:2)

On Saturday, Marc Elias, the Clinton team's general counsel, announced Clinton's campaign would participate in Green Party candidate Jill Stein's recount effort in Wisconsin. Elias also said the Clinton campaign would participate if Stein decides to pursue recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan.
Elias is a senior lawyer at the Perkins Coie law firm, which also represents Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee.
In July, the New York Times reported Soros had pledged up to $5 million for a legal fight led by Elias against what the newspaper characterized as "restrictive voting laws enacted in recent years by Republican-controlled state governments."
Always remember that the earth and everything in it belong to the Lord. While unbelievers may put their faith in wealth and worldly possessions, we put our faith in Christ alone. Pray for a revelation of God's sovereignty to those wealthy individuals who are trying to influence our nation in an ungodly manner.
"Whoever loves money never has enough; whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income." (Ecc. 5:10)

Authorities said Abdul Razak Ali Artan, 18, plowed a small gray Honda into the crowd outside Watts Hall, an engineering classroom building, just before 10 a.m. ET. Artan then got out of the vehicle and attacked people with a butcher knife before he was shot and killed by a campus police officer.
Pray for the victims and their families of this horrible attack. Pray also that the students and faculty will be able to resume their activities without fear.
"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." (Ps. 147:3)

Are the stores on your shopping list
Naught or
Nice?
In preparation for Christmas, the Liberty Counsel has updated their Naughty and Nice List, cataloging which stores are censoring Christmas and which are openly celebrating it. This is a part of the Friend or Foe Christmas campaign, where they pledge to be a "Friend" to anyone celebrating Christmas and a "Foe" to those who try to censor it.
Belk, JCPenney and Khols have all made the move to the Nice List for acknowledging Christmas and offering Christmas gifting options. We are encouraged to see a surge of retail stores embracing the Christmas season.
