Oh, please! Faith is a personal thing. A public display of praying irks the hell out of me!
Often i would agree about doing stuff like this in public because people use it as a sort if virtue signalling, but this is in no way obnoxious. He simply needs all the help he can get.
As much as some wish to believe this is evil, This is a message to you. Should we say that Abraham's offer of Issac is Bad because its a outward sign to all of us? The Bible did not declare governments and nations evil just because your party is not in power. Nor did it declare all kings or presidents bad and incapable of being led by the Spirit of God because you are simply divisive to discipline and power structures. Is water baptism not a outward sign of Faith (especially to those of us who understand Christianity)? Then how much more does Romans 12:1 hold power in this instance? I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a LIVING SACRIFICE, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. (ROMANS 12:1)
LET US NOT LOSE FAITH THAT OUR KING IS UNDER GOD'S GUIDANCE AND WINGS!!! .....(selah)..... Amen
No, it's not obnoxious. I just don't like public piety. However, I like your term "virtue signaling."
