Johnson Reaches Spending Deal – Intercessors for America

Last year, Cynthia Dunbar, an IFA board member, received a word from the Lord. God said to her, Pray boldness over Congressman Michael Johnson in this season. Pray that he may walk in strength tempered in grace, that he may boldly speak forth truth, and that his words will be a beacon of hope to the nation.” Is our new speaker already answering our prayers with this decision?

From Just the News. House Speaker Mike Johnson on Sunday said Congressional leaders reached a topline spending deal to avert a federal government shutdown by providing funding through the rest of the fiscal year.

“As has been widely reported, a list of extra-statutory adjustments was agreed upon by negotiators last summer. The agreement today achieves key modifications to the June framework that will secure more than $16 billion in additional spending cuts to offset the discretionary spending levels,” Johnson wrote.

The deal also “results in an overall $30 billion total reduction from the Senate’s spending plans,” Johnson said.
