Shalom Praying Friends,
The Holy Spirit has been talking to me about the heart issues of His people, mine included. How many of you know that when He includes your heart and not just others, He may be ready to reveal something and you may not want to hear what He wants to say.
The New Oxford American dictionary defines the verb ‘dredge” when accompanied by a subject as “(dredge something up) bring to people's attention an unpleasant or embarrassing fact or incident that had been forgotten.” Actually I look at it as something I’m so embarrassed about that I bury it and hope it would never be shown the light of day. BUT GOD!
The Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit) is in the process of dredging hearts right now in this time of stress and evil tidings. Do we worship at the altar of fear? Do we trust Him to stay with us in the face of adversity? Do we run to the enemy or to Him in the time of trouble? Will He protect us in the storm if He’s called us to the Storm? I believe He will if we are obedient. Also, am I willing to change my plans to accommodate His plans?
Recently I experienced a sudden change in a prayer assignment. It didn’t surprise the Ruach of YHWH, He already knew what would happen. But I chose to align myself with His plan and experienced an exhilaration unfamiliar to me in the face of possible danger in the midst of a battle. Prayer assignments don’t always have to be a major battle, don’t have to necessarily be with voices raised in adamant expression, or prophetic actions to display our authority. And sometimes they do require that. Sometimes we will have unexpected pleasures and opportunities arise when we are willing to be flexible according to His purposes.
So the things the Lord revealed to me about my own heart were things I needed to acknowledge in order for Him to extract what needed to be dredged out. No you don’t get to know what those things are because they are between Him and me! Just as I won’t ask you what things need to be exposed in your heart.
We are in unprecedented times. There may come a time when the only one we can depend upon in the battle will be our Abba Father. He has promised us He won’t leave us or forsake us and I see no reason to doubt Him now after all He has done for us in the sacrifice of His son Yeshua. Now more than ever we must pray for our leaders as the Word commands us if we want to live peaceful lives.
This will be important as you pray through the suggested prayers at the end of this writing: Cabinet of the United States whitehouse.gov/the-trump-administration/the-cabinet
The Cabinet of the United States is part of the executive branch of the federal government of the United States. The members of the Cabinet are the vice president and the Secretary of State and other heads of the federal executive departments, all of whom — if eligible — are in the presidential line of succession. Formed: March1789 (age 230)
So what would your world look like if all telecommunications went dark for 10 days. Would you freak out if you couldn’t text or watch your favorite tv program or couldn’t watch the fake news minute by minute? What if the only communication was prayer? Would you know how to pray? Would you pray? Would you seek His face? What if the only communication that could come to you was in the form of a supernatural word from God that He is with you until the end of the age. His promises are clearly laid out in the Word of God.
Recently I wrote about “When Fear is Weaponized” by the enemy.
Being prepared for difficult times is essential and trusting the Lord to bring you through the Storm will get you through whatever needs to be gotten through. For years (but not recently) I taught in churches on the essentials for emergency preparation in difficult times. I will include my master list for preparations although the websites on it have not been updated recently, I simply do not have the time to do it at this late hour. Also, I will attach my suggested prayer guide to be easily printed out.
Suggested Prayer Guide:
Numbers 10:9 “When you go to war in your land against the enemy who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the Lord your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
“How awesome are Your works O God! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You. Psalm 66:1-4 You are YHWH Tsabaoth, the Lord of the Angel Armies. The King of Righteousness, the Victorious Warrior, our Deliverer Lion of the Tribe of Judah roar through our prayers. Hebrews 9:14, Revelation1:5
Ephesians 6:12-13 tells us we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore we take up the full armor of God. We put on the breastplate of righteousness to protect our heart and our chest cavity. We gird our loins about with truth and put upon our feet the sandals of the Gospel of peace. We put on the helmet of salvation to renew our minds daily and hold up the shield of faith to thwart every fiery dart of the enemy. According to Judges 7:18, with the Word we release the sword of the Lord against the powers of hell in the name of Yeshua that we may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.
We forbid any retaliation of the enemy against us in the name of Yeshua. We cover ourselves, our families, homes, finances and ministries in the Blood of Yeshua and We ask You to deliver our nation from unholy powers. Let the angel of the Lord encamp around us and protect us Psalm 34:7. Let Your Glory be our covering and protect our back. Hold us up and we will be safe. Psalm 119:117.
In the name of Yeshua we bind the strongman over America that we may plunder the enemy’s camp. Mark 3:27. We bind the prince of the power of the air and abolish demonic frequencies. Let the sound of Heaven be released in to the earth. Ephesians 2:2 and we take authority over every spirit and demon of hell that would cause destruction or obstruction against the work of God here today. We blind the vision of the enemy through the pentagram and close the portal of the third eye. We deafen his ears. We bind the deaf and dumb spirit and declare we have the mind of Christ to see with His eyes and hear what the Spirit of God is saying this hour.
Lord teach our hands to war and our fingers to fight Psalm 144:1 for we are Your End Times Warriors for Your Glory. Use us as Your weapon against the enemy 2Chron 11:1. We are Your battle-axe and weapons of war Jeremiah 51:20. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty to the pulling down of strongholds. 2Corinthians 10:4.
We bind the spirit of witchcraft and witchcraft control. We rebuke and destroy every evil pronouncement by the enemy against this nation. Job 41:20. We bind the spirit of charismatic witchcraft practiced in prayers born of the flesh. We bind every scrambling spirit that would attempt to twist the words we pray.
In the name of Yeshua, we take our positions in the heavens and bind the principalities and powers that operate against our lives and this nation America. We cancel every demonic prayer and sacrifice on the high places. We pray for the angel armies to be released to war against any spirit in the heavens assigned to block our prayers from being answered Daniel 10:12-13.
Lord do not let us operate in the wrong spirit or become bound by the spirit of witchcraft. We bind the evil powers of bewitchment and destroy those spirits from working among our loved ones. Because of Your power at work within us, witches and sorcerers will confess their evil deeds and will burn their tools of witchcraft publicly and turn to you. Deut. 18:10-12, Acts 13:8-11, Micah 5:11-15
Lord cleanse our lives from secret faults. We renounce secret and shameful ways. We will not use deception nor will we distort the word of God. The only thing that we will hide in our hearts is the Word of God, so that we might not sin against You. Psalm 19:12-13; Jer. 23:24; Ephesians 5:8-16
We are clothed with the garments of salvation. Our God has placed the robe of righteousness over us and given us the garments of praise for the spirit of heaviness. He has prepared us for battle by preparing us with the armor of defense. His righteousness is our strong and impenetrable breastplate and His justice protects us like armor. Isa. 61:10, Ezekiel 16:8-13; Galatians 3:27; Ephesians 6:14
We lay an axe to the root of every evil tree in our lives. Let every ungodly generational taproot be cut and pulled out of our bloodline in the name of Jesus. Let the roots of wickedness be as rottenness. We speak to every evil tree to be uprooted and cast into the sea. Let every root of bitterness be cut from our lives. Let Your holy fire burn up every ungodly root in the name of Jesus. Jer. 1:10, Romans 11:17-19, Hebrews 12:15
Lord, let us be clothed with humility. Let all spirits rooted in pride or rebellion come out in the name of Jesus. To fear the Lord is to hate evil. Therefore we hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior, and perverse speech. We will walk in the way of righteousness along the paths of justice. We will clothe ourselves with humility toward others because God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.Proverbs 15:25:16:18;Psalm17:11, Isa. 1:20
Lord remove satan’s seat from our regions, cities and nation. The Sun of Righteousness has arisen with healing in His wings and in His power will trample the wicked, and they shall be ashes under the soles of our feet. You have enlarged our paths under us, so our feet will not slip; our enemies have fallen under our feet. Romans 16:19-20, Malachi 4:3
We declare we are sober and vigilant against our adversary, the devil. We are prepared to be victorious over his evil attacks and we have armed ourselves with the breastplate of faith and love and the helmet of salvation. Because of the salvation of Christ, we are able to see the evil schemes and tactics of satan before they are able to do harm to us or our families. He may cause us to suffer, but he will never be able to overcome us or take us out of the protection of God, our Father. 1Thessalonians 5:4-11, 1 Peter 1:13-15;5:8
Satan, the Lord rebukes you. Through His power we will bruise Satan under our feet. We bind and rebuke all hindering spirits of satan in the name of Jesus. We will not be terrified of satan and his demons when they fight against us, for God Himself is with us and will rescue us. Because of the power of Christ at work within us, we have overcome satan and have stripped him of his power over us. Luke 10:17-19; Acts 26:18
We speak to every mountain in our lives and command it to be removed and cast into the sea. We speak to every financial mountain to be removed from our lives in Jesus name. We declare that the government and our bank accounts are not the supplier of our needs but Jehovah Jireh will supply every need we have for shelter, food and clothing. We shall not want as long as the Lord is with us and He has promised He will never leave us. He doesn’t lie but is called Faithful and True! Let every evil mountain hear the voice of the Lord and be removed. Let the mountains tremble at the presence of God. Lord You are against every destroying mountain. Make waste the evil mountains in our lives, O Lord. Matt 21:21-22, Psalm 65
Lord as we navigate the twists and turns of pestilence and disease, quarantine and restrictions of movement, rumors, anger and frustration let us put our time to good use on behalf of the Kingdom. Lord let Your surge begin on the earth. Let a functioning Kingdom aligned with You begin to move through this world. Come to us in greater manifestations of Your glory. Make Your stand with us as You promised. John 11:40
As kings in His lineage given authority, we declare there will now be a reversal of arteries that are all clogged up. Release thousands and thousands of angels to go into every county, every courthouse, every capitol in every nation and rip off the Band-Aids. No more temporary fixes. No more covering it up. Cut it out. Do deep surgery in this nation, O God! Release them to help push back darkness so that light can shine. Do what is necessary to remove infection and poison that goes into the muscle of this nation. Shake this nation to its core. Shake it, Lord, to where there is no more covering up. Heal it. Do whatever it takes to heal it. No more Band Aids. Revelation 18:1
Let Your church awaken. Awaken Your people by the millions to make a stand right now to raise their voice and decree their authority, their faith and their confidence in You. Cause a historic shift that will be written about in history - the time when You established this nation back to its covenant roots. Luke 4:32
In the name of our King, Jesus, release the angels of Heaven under Holy Spirit anointing and leadership to destroy tactics of Haman in the media or government. Turn it back on them, what is meant for destruction. Hang them in their own vices. Hang them from gallows meant for Your people. Cut off hell’s attack. We forbid it in Jesus’ name. We close the door to powers of darkness over Washington DC. We close the door to the powers of the demon princes of hell in the name of Jesus. We say that our angel princes, that are mightier than satan, will go in and begin to remove the infection. Esther 8:7
We declare a reversal of the prescription of hell for this nation. The prescription of Haman for this nation. Expose the lies. Expose the liars. Expose the corruption. Expose the deceit. John 3:20
We declare that America will return to You. We will return to our first love. Your people will return to their first love. Lord, people all around this world will return to their first love. Those who have drifted away from You- shake them up, do whatever it requires. Quit allowing them to put a Band-Aid on the corruption of their hearts. Expose attitudes and character. Expose lack of integrity.
We declare the greatest days of resurrection power and healing are now being released. We declare a great restoration of hope is being infused in the church of Jesus Christ and into the people of God. Job 22:28
We declare Your Kingdom is coming and coming and coming. Come with Your angel armies and assist Your people in releasing revival in America and throughout the world. We rise to bind demon thrones, principalities, powers, demons of darkness, and spiritual wickedness in high places. You will not rule us. You are forbidden from ruling us. We will not permit it. Greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world. Come down from You iniquitous thrones. Demon princes, come down from your strongholds. Angel Armies attack them! Let the ruling Kingdom of God go forth to conquer. We choose to rule and reign. Acts 9:14; Isaiah 13:4; 1John 4:4
We will not be intimidated by fear, any fear. We will not be intimidated by anyone. For those that are with us are more than those that are with them. We will not be intimidated by Hamans in the media, the government or anywhere else. We answer only to You God. Strengthen us to be courageous and make our stand. Release Your Kingdom to reorder this nation back to its covenant roots in Jesus name. 2 Kings 6:16
Father God as your children we bring forth petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving before You for all people-for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. For Your Word says this is good and it will please You O God our Savior, because You want all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. 1 Timothy 2:1-4
Give them wisdom and knowledge, that they may lead Your people. 2 Chronicles 1:10 Let them live with the fear of the Lord- that is wisdom, and to shun evil in their understanding. Job 28:28
Let them be humble leaders, for when pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom.Proverbs 11:2 Where there is strife, there is pride, but wisdom is found in those who take advice. Let them take wise council in and amongst themselves. Proverbs 13:10
We therefore commission the hosts of Heaven in the name of Yeshua to dispatch swiftly to the departments of government and affiliates to sift out from their positions everyone involved in the overthrow of the President and the goal of destruction of this nation. Angels of the Lord Go Now! and accomplish that which we have directed! Bind the enemy up and take them to the place that Yeshua directs You. Revelation 12:7-11
Presidential angels that guard the President be diligent to guard him day and night and remove all poisons and lethal objects from anything he eats, drinks or touches that has been instigated by the enemy. We pray that his food tasters and drink tasters would be loyal and without compromise. That they would not perish but would have supernatural discernment of anything that is planned by the enemy. Search and remove from the White House, the Secret Service Teams, the military guards, Vice President Pence’s offices any one who is not of Your appointment, O Lord.
We declare Psalm 91 and the Blood of Yeshua covers the entire Trump family and all those assigned who You have designated to those positions by divine appointments.
Lord, let our leaders praise You and hear the Word of the Lord spoken through the mouths of Your prophets. Psalm 138:4
open doors of utterance in our nation so that the people will hear Your Word. God, give us leaders who will cause the families of our nation to be blessed. Galatians 3:14 Let Your Glory be declared among the people and let the healing waters flow in our nation. Ezekiel 47:9 Let all the leaders in our nation who have turned to idolatry be confounded and turn to worship the Lord. Psalm 97
