President Donald Trump is in Palm Beach, Florida, at his Mar-a-Lago residence today. U.S. and Ukrainian officials are scheduled to meet this coming week to discuss the first steps in ending the war in Ukraine.
Special Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff said the meeting, which is likely to take place in Saudi Arabia, is intended “to get down a framework for a peace agreement and an initial cease-fire as well.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated, “Ukrainian and American teams have resumed work, and we hope that next week we will have a meaningful meeting.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- That President Trump will receive God’s wisdom and guidance as he seeks peace between Ukraine and Russia.
- That the Ukrainian delegation negotiates in good faith and follows through on discussions.
- For Special Envoy Witkoff to be discerning as he engages in the peace agreement talks.

Be renewed in the spirit of your minds. – Ephesians 4:23
The longer you are a Christian, the more you become aware that your actions are a result of your thoughts. Along with the renewal the apostle wrote of in today’s verse, Paul stated, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect” (Romans 12:2). This renewal must take place every day. Just as you physically eat each day, it is vital to consume daily spiritual meals by reading your Bible and praying, lest you forget what those good, acceptable and perfect things within the will of God are.
God said through the prophet Isaiah, “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, my thoughts than your thoughts” (Isaiah 55:9). He also stated, “So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11). Paul wrote, “Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words” (Romans 8:26).
As you study the Scriptures, you become assured that you are praying according to God’s will as you intercede for the country, leaders, and citizens. Jesus said, “And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith” (Matthew 21:22).

26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.
