<p>&#8220;Lord Jesus, please give us the strength, the knowledge, the ability to articulate our words, have fun, and be confident, in Jesus&#8217; name, amen,&#8221; Leavitt said before turning to enter the briefing room.</p>

<p>&#8220;Love this!&#8221; Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) agreed. &#8220;@KarolineLeavitt praying before speaking to the press — truly setting an example of a courageous God-fearing woman.&#8221;</p>

<p>Leavitt revealed during a <a href="https://cbn.com/news/politics/god-she-trusts-karoline-leavitts-journey-white-house-podium" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recent interview</a> with the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) that she stopped to pray before every briefing, saying, &#8220;I think that team prayer before is just a moment to be silent and still and ask God for confidence and the ability to articulate my words, knowledge, prayer, protection, and it is a nice moment to reset. It&#8217;s the last thing I do before I go out there, and then it just gives me the confidence to do a briefing.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My faith is incredibly important to me, I would argue, now more than ever, being in a role that is very demanding and at times controversial, and there&#8217;s a lot of public pressure and discussion online about who you are and your family,&#8221; Leavitt added. &#8220;And you know, it could be difficult for someone who doesn&#8217;t have faith, but with faith, all things are possible.&#8221;</p>
