A congressional panel has found that the U.S. military is not prepared to fight a major war or stand up to powers like Russia and China. This is a vital prayer need.

From Breitbart. A report has found that the United States military is “not prepared” to fight in a major war, as “major powers” — such as Russia and China — have become “top threats” to the U.S., with China “outpacing” the U.S.

Discuss issues you care about with other intercessors.

 

The report, which the Commission on the National Defense Strategy released in July, reveals that while the U.S. is currently facing some of “the most serious and most challenging” threats since 1945, several problems are preventing the U.S. military from being able to address threats from China or Russia.

Among the problems preventing the U.S. military from addressing threats from China and Russia is reportedly the Department of Defense’s (DOD) “business practices, byzantine research,” and its “reliance on decades-old military hardware,” which reflects “an era of uncontested military dominance.” The report adds that “such methods” are “not suited to today’s strategic environment.”

The report also notes that the U.S. military has faced “recent recruitment shortfalls” that have led to a decrease in “the size of the Army, Air Force, and Navy.” …

China and Russia are described as major powers that are trying “to undermine” the influence of the U.S., with China “outpacing the United States”:

The Commission finds that, in many ways, China is outpacing the United States and has largely negated the U.S. military advantage in the Western Pacific through two decades of focused military investment. Without significant change by the United States, the balance of power will continue to shift in China’s favor. …

The report adds that China and Russia established a “no-limits” partnership in February 2022 that has “only deepened and broadened to include a military and economic partnership with Iran and North Korea.” …

Due to the U.S. industrial base not being able to produce “everything needed,” the Commission adds that the U.S. “should coordinate and partner with its allies” to “increase industrial capacity.” …

“And who is a rock but our God? Only God! The God who equips me with strength and makes my way perfect, who trains my hands for war so my arms can bend a bronze bow. You equipped me with strength for war; you brought my adversaries down underneath me.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭18‬:‭31‬-‭32‬, ‭34‬, ‭39‬ ‭CEB‬‬
We lift up our military to You, Father, that they will have all the technology, tools, and weapons of a modern war machine to crush any adversary that comes against our sovereign nation or our allies. We pray for bold leadership in the Pentagon, in training, and in deployment to the field. We ask you to remove the woke agenda and DEI requirements from our military and give us true warriors with the heart of a lion that are undefeatable. Go before us and behind us in all decision making and battles, protect us and make us strong for your Name.

My dear brothers and sisters which are my fellow warriors we MUST spend time fasting and praying for this issue !! Everyone knows the value of fasting throughout the Bible. It magnifies our prayer power to debase our flesh whether it’s one meal, one day or one week.
Of course America has enemies around the globe. And I will put it bluntly…They would be STUPID to miss this opportunity of America’s weakest military in history!!! When an attack does occur many of our military soldiers would die because we are simply subordinate to so many. Again, we MUST stand in the gap for this spiritual combat as well. Most of us are not in the military but we are Trained , Experienced Special Forces Soldiers who are taking to the field of battle this very moment as we reject satans agenda to destroy our America .
Father this is your day , your land, and we take part as intercessors to refuse this spiritual attack. We are shoulder to shoulder with each other and with your heavenly hosts to defend YOUR land !!!!! In the blessed name of Yeshua we STAND !!!! Hallelujah!!!!
