'Secure our border': Massive police org calls on Trump, Rand Paul to swiftly confirm Noem to DHS

Brothers and sisters in Christ, we find ourselves at the cusp of a truly momentous occasion. As detailed by Emma Colton on Fox News, the esteemed Fraternal Order of Police has voiced their robust endorsement of Governor Kristi Noem's nomination to serve as Secretary of Homeland Security by President-elect Trump. This backing is a clarion call for us to align ourselves with law and order, a core Biblical principle outlined in Romans 13:1-5. Much like the vigilant watchman guarding a city (Psalm 127:1), Noem is set to shepherd the walls of our society against the lawlessness that perilously flows across our borders. The support for Gov. Noem by the FOP isn’t just another political endorsement. No, it’s a testament to her unwavering commitment to the rule of law, public safety, and by extension, the moral fiber of our nation. As Christians, we understand that sedition against the nations’ laws is akin to rebellion against God's divine order (1 Peter 2:13-14). Noem’s nomination represents a return to that divine order after a period of chaotic border policy that allowed the destructive scourge of fentanyl and other drugs to pour into our communities, shredding the fabric of our God-fearing nation. Securing the border isn't just a strategy for national safety; it's a stand for moral rectitude—drawing a firm line against the tide of sin and degradation represented by illegal drug trafficking and lawlessness. When Trump speaks of ending the immigration crisis, he speaks of safeguarding not just the physical but the spiritual welfare of the nation. This is why swift confirmation of Gov. Noem by stalwarts like Sen. Rand Paul isn't just a bureaucratic formality, it's a strike for righteousness. Gov. Noem has already proven her dedication to American principles, eschewing the heavy-handed, fear-driven lockdowns and mandates that have smothered our God-given freedoms. Such character and conviction in the face of adversity is reminiscent of Esther’s courage before the king (Esther 4:16). It is this same spirit that promises to breathe life back into the Department of Homeland Security, to enforce our borders with the vigilance of Nehemiah rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 2:17-18). Let us not be swayed by the voices of detractors who would seek to denigrate this great woman’s achievements or question the validity of President-elect Trump's leadership. As Proverbs 29:2 tells us, "When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan." Let us then rejoice at the prospect of a leader like Noem, a friend of law enforcement and a champion of conservative Christian values, assuming a critical role in our nation’s defense. Brothers and sisters, let us pray fervently for wisdom and strength for Gov. Noem as she prepares to undertake this immense responsibility. And let us also lift up our voices in thanks for President Trump's discerning selection. For in these trying times, it is God's direction, through the vessel of strong and righteous leadership, that will restore and preserve our land for future generations of believers. Amen.
