Another article I read mentioned that the phrasing was "spiritual warfare"-type language which possibly makes sense, but I have no experience in that so I'd have to defer to someone better versed in that aspect of Christian thought or practices. While I have absolutely no use for the prosperity gospel preachers, this might be a bit of a tempest in a teapot. For someone in such a position as she is though, she should be far more aware of her words and how they are construed.
Do not say, “Why were the old days better than these?” For it is not wise to ask such questions. Ecc 7:10
John777 exists to me only in quoted form.
"Lord, please hear our prayers" is about all I can say.
"But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess."—Revelation 2:20.
Love is patient, love is kind; it does not envy, it does not boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.
Anyone know where there's a full transcript of White's prayer? I've looked but can't seem to find it.

Some have said that its been taken out on context. Perhaps, but whether in or out of context, cursing someones womb in the name of Jesus doesn't seem right to me.

Well, yeah. Regardless of what she said or didn't say, I know of any number of other reasons why her being in the White House is a bad idea.

I am no fan of this lady. But I don't think that is what she meant. The scriptures talk about birth pangs and are not referring to a physical birth. I think she was referring to Satan birthing a plan, etc. not an actual womb or a person.
She called for any “strange winds that have been sent to hurt the church, sent against this nation, sent against our president, sent against myself” to be broken. “In the name of Jesus, we command all satanic pregnancies to miscarry right now,” Ms. White said. “We declare that anything that’s been conceived in satanic wombs, that it’ll miscarry. It will not be able to carry forth any plan of destruction, any plan of harm.”
Here is how she explained it in a tweet that is referenced in the article:
Ms. White said in a tweet that the video was taken out of context and that she was referring to a specific Bible passage, Ephesians 6:12. “I was praying Eph 6:12 that we wrestle not against flesh and blood,” she said. “Anything that has been conceived by demonic plans, for it to be canceled and not prevail in your life.”
Please don't take this as an endorsement of her or her doctrines. But I think the media is being unfair to her right now. But that is what people do these days. Many people talk in hyperbole and symbolically. That is how I took her words as symbolic.

Ran across this song by Christian Hip Hopper Shai Linne. It's called Fal$e Teacher$. Paula White gets an honorable mention. This is great!
[Intro]
Special dedication to my brothers and sisters on the great continent of Africa
To Saints in Malawi, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Zimbabwe
Don't be deceived by what America is sending y'all man
[Verse]
Let me begin, while there is still ink left in my pen
I am set to contend for Truth you can bet will offend
Deception within the church man, who's letting them in?
We talked about this years ago, let's address it again (Yeh)
And I ain't really trying to start beef
But some who claim to be part of His sheep got some sharp teeth (they're wolves)
You cast at me when you criticize them
But Jesus told us: Matthew 7:16, we can recognize them!
And God forbid that for the love of some fans
I keep quiet and watch them die with their blood on my hands!
So, there's nothing left for me to do except to speak to you
In the spirit of Jude 3 and 2nd Peter 2
And I know that some would label me a Pharisee
Because today the only heresy is saying that there's heresy:
"How dare they be specific and drop some clarity
On the popularity of the gospel of Prosperity"
Turn off TBN, that channel is overrated
The pastors speak bogus statements, financially motivated
It's kind of like a pyramid scheme
Visualize Heretics christianizing the American dream
It's foul and deceitful, they're lying to people
Teaching that camels squeeze through the eye of a needle!
Ungodly and wicked, ask yourself how can they not be convicted
Treating Jesus like a lottery ticket
And you're thinking they're not the dangerous type
Because some of their statements are right
That only proves that Satan comes as an angel of light
This teaching can't be believed without a cost
The lie is you can achieve a crown without a cross
And I hear it all the time when they speak on the block
Even unbelievers are shocked how they're fleecing the flock
It should be obvious then, yet I'll explain why it's in
Peep the Bible, it's in 1 Timothy 6:9-10
It talks about how the desire for riches
Has left many souls on fire and stitches, mired in ditches
Tell me, who would teach you to pursue as a goal
The very thing that the Bible said will ruin your soul, huh?
Yet they're encouraging the love of money
To make it worse, they've exported this garbage into other countries!
My heart breaks even now as I'm rhyming
You wanna know what all false teachers have in common? (what?)
It's called selfism the fastest growing religion
They just dress it up and call it "Christian"
Don't be deceived by this funny biz
If you come to Jesus for money, then he's not your God, money is!
Jesus is not a means to an end
The Gospel is He came to redeem us from sin
And that is the message forever I yell
If you're living your best life now you're heading for hell!

[Timothy Brindle]
"But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of truth will be blasphemed. And in their greed they will exploit you with false words. Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep." 2 Peter 2:1-3
Love is patient, love is kind; it does not envy, it does not boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.

And here's a quote in there from Ms. White
She called for any “strange winds that have been sent to hurt the church, sent against this nation, sent against our president, sent against myself” to be broken. “In the name of Jesus, we command all satanic pregnancies to miscarry right now,” Ms. White said. “We declare that anything that’s been conceived in satanic wombs, that it’ll miscarry. It will not be able to carry forth any plan of destruction, any plan of harm.”
OK Mark, I can accept this hyperbolic explanation. Never-the-less, I don't believe that she has the right to declare from her own spirit, curses as if they were the word of the Lord. Moreover, I don't believe that such women should be exercising authority over men, what less the president. Its disgraceful.

I don't see where she cursed anyone. She was resisting what is called schemes of the devil, his plans, etc. I don't see where she cursed people. Maybe I am mistaken. As I said before, please don't take my words here as an endorsement of her or her theology. But that doesn't mean we should misrepresent what she was saying and use it as an excuse to demonize her.
God bless!

Thank you Aviyah. I just listened to it. I think this clip pretty much confirms her words are being misrepresented. Just to be clear, again, this doesn't mean I support her or her theology.
God bless
