The Most Important Cabinet Position


Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. Proverbs 15:22 KJ

Since the recent election of Donald Trump to the presidency, the airwaves have been filled with announcements as well as speculations as to who will fill which role in the new administration. But the most important cabinet position has yet to be discussed. Who will fill the role of spiritual advisor to our incoming commander in chief? Everyone knows that George Washington was our first president, but few have read that it was Pastor John Gano who baptized him and Mason Locke Weems who pastored the little church near Mount Vernon where Washington attended. Some presidential spiritual advisors were well known such as Peter Marshall, with Truman or Billy Graham with Eisenhower, but most remain obscure. But what matters is not the star power of these advisors, but their spiritual integrity. Let us remember to pray for God to send good and wise counsellors, not only for our president but for all our leaders. Let us also pray that they will not only seek wise spiritual counsel but even more that they will seek the wisest counselor of all: the Word of God!

      • Mr. Cahn delivered the Prayer Breakfast speech to Obama’s administration in January 2013 and presented the Gospel and the warning of God’s judgement on America if we did not repent. Wondering if someone got fired for telling Obama, “Hey, we got a guy who can appeal to Christians and Jews, and he’s author of a NYT’s best seller! So let’s let him speak to the prayer breakfast.”

        The best seller was The Harbinger, a prophetic look at the events of 9/11 and its aftermath. Still worth reading.

        Check out his speech on January 21, 2013. And this was 11 years ago! On Youtube or Vimeo. If the link does not load here, you can search “jonathan cahn at obama’s prayer breakfast 2013”
