I Prayed have prayed
God, we pray that You would secure our water supply. Protect our land of foreign powers with their own motives, Lord.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Our water is being controlled and potentially manipulated by foreign powers. This needs prayer.

From The Epoch Times. While U.S. officials continue to express concern over the surge in foreign-owned farm acreage, an important question looms: Who owns America’s water?

Find out when your state prays.

 

The answer is opaque, but foreign interests are expanding their hold on U.S. water in ways besides just land ownership.

At the moment, the door is wide open for foreign investment in water privatization.

New research suggests that increased privatization in water utilities also leads to higher prices at the tap for residents. …

Long Term Threat

The United States is grappling with drought in 44 percent of the lower 48 states as of January 2023. Western states have endured prolonged arid conditions for years, impacting multiple farming regions and domestic food supply. …

Foreign ownership of U.S. agricultural land represents nearly 38 million acres. For perspective, that’s roughly the size of Illinois or Iowa. Between 2009 and 2019, foreign land holdings doubled.

With that comes the potential for turning water into money.

Laws concerning water usage vary from state to state, but landowners often have the right to use, sell, or divert those resources. Coupled with expanding foreign ownership, some insiders are worried about America’s water.

A senior official within California’s resource management—who asked to have their name omitted—told The Epoch Times, “The topic is a very serious one. Wealthy non-farming Americans and foreign interests are buying up U.S. farms and water rights.”

The source added that foreign investors are “manipulating domestic politics” in ways that prioritize the commodification of farmland over things like sustainable use, clean food, and water quality.

“Foreign ownership of American real estate is one of the biggest long-term threats to the integrity of our political systems.” …

Leaky Infrastructure

When it comes to water privatization, advocates point to America’s aging pipes as proof that corporations can deliver where the government has failed for decades.

Upgrading the country’s nearly 50-year-old lead water pipes alone will cost an estimated $60 billion. …

That means America’s public water utilities won’t see dramatic improvements anytime soon. Cue the entrance of foreign investors with deep pockets. …

National Security Threat

“In general, there’s always a risk associated with selling land to foreign investors. Rental periods are a much better way to preserve U.S. interests,” security analyst Irina Tsukerman, told The Epoch Times.

Functioning as the president of Scarab Rising, Tsukerman said the outcome of foreign-owned land and water rights will largely depend on the country or company’s relationship with the United States.

“Short-term immediate risks with unfriendly or competing powers are a higher risk for many reasons,” she said.

Tsukerman says that in states with drought conditions, land ownership can become an additional risk factor. …

Pray to God that our water supply will not be taken over by the enemies to try and steal our water rights. We must not sell any more of our land who has sufficient water. God gives a word in Hebrews 11:
Amplified Bible
“The Triumphs of Faith
1Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality–faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses]. 2For by this [kind of] faith the [a]men of old gained [divine] approval.
3By faith [that is, with an inherent trust and enduring confidence in the power, wisdom and goodness of God] we understand that the worlds (universe, ages) were framed and created [formed, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose] by the word of God“. As we pray over the security of our water let us focus in daily prayer on what Gods words are saying—-By Faith and Trust in Gods words and wisdom is The Faith. “1Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of [a]witnesses [who by faith have testified to the truth of God’s absolute faithfulness], stripping off every unnecessary weight and the sin which so easily and cleverly entangles us, let us run with endurance and active persistence the race that is set before us, 2[looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus to protect us By Faith-in him as we use His words to stand and take back and then stand for what belongs to us that was taken to try and possibly harm our America. Father God I place my Faith and trust in you as I ask and pray that our water will be secured, and no more risk will be taken by The American landowners to /(not sell ) and to take steps to secure the water rights. I also ask that the known water rights that have been sold to another country that we have good relationships with them, if not I ask if you could make a way for us to obtain the land back if it was sold illegal. I ask and place my Faith in your words that if I ask you will honor my prayer. I have another situation do you heal water pipes?😊 Upgrading the country’s nearly 50-year-old lead water pipes alone will cost an estimated $60 billion. I am asking for monies to be exclusively provided to heal or repair our water pipes., I had not heard before this time, our pipes all need replaced and that the lands were being sold. I lift up and ask you Jesus to protect America as the Wealthy non-farming Americans and foreign interests are buying up U.S. farms and water rights.” Thank you Father for your goodness to protect us .in Jesus name. As I ask and thank you for security.

Prayers for De Santos as he stops foreign countries from buying our farms, ranches and businesses. The Chinese Communism need for our Lord to surround them and bring them to their knees and give their lives to Jesus. Amen
God Bless America

Great article that coincides with the other two that expose an agenda of the globalists!! We must realize y’all- that all of these efforts to dominate our planet is nothing other than the Anti Christ building his foundation of support. Satan is going to “appear” as a savior when he steps onstage to save the world. Many countries will follow this deception but we must be diligent in our intercession that AMERICA DOES NOT.
Father we agonize in our spirit for our homes and our homeland! We declare that “America Shall Be Saved” -as brother Dutch Sheets keeps proclaiming. We as an Ecclesia laugh at these futile attempts of the forces of Hell to thwart the plans of our FATHER in heaven. May our eyes be open and true Words Of Knowledge prevail in America!
With our precious savior Jesus Christ we stand and shout AMEN !!!!
