On Tuesday, voters across the nation made their voices heard in several key off-year elections. And by the time the sun rose on Wednesday, the results were in: Democrats and radical progressives won where it counted.
Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.
Last Saturday, we compiled a list of the most important elections that needed your prayers. Here are the results of those elections.
New York City
Radical Islamist and Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, defeating both former Governor Andrew Cuomo and Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa.
AP notes that Mamdani will become the city’s first Muslim mayor, as well as its first mayor born in Africa.
IFA has previously warned about Mamdani’s radical ideals. New York City has long been a progressive bastion in the nation, but it is likely about to reach a new depth of radical leftism.
Virginia
Though Republican Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears ran an inspiring race, she was not able to keep her state from flipping. Democratic Representative Abigail Spanberger won Virginia’s gubernatorial election, setting her up to become the state’s first female governor.
In a more shocking turn of events, former state Delegate Jay Jones defeated incumbent candidate Jason Miyares and was elected attorney general of Virginia.
Jones faced rampant criticism throughout his campaign over violent text messages sent in 2022. In these texts, the soon-to-be Attorney General expressed a desire to see a Republican colleague’s children die, accusing that colleague and his wife of “breeding little fascists.”
At a time when political violence is surging, Jones’ victory is a sobering sign for our nation.
New Jersey
Democratic Representative Mikie Sherrill won the New Jersey governor race, defeating Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli. Though the race may have seemed close over the weekend, NBC News on Wednesday showed a 13-point difference between the Governor-elect and her opponent.
Pennsylvania
In Pennsylvania, Supreme Court Justices Kevin Dougherty, Christine Donohue, and David Wecht all saw their terms on the high court extended. The three justices will now serve for an additional ten years.
On Saturday, we reported that this election could have drastic implications on future races, as Pennsylvania is one of the nation’s key swing states. As the midterms draw closer, let’s pray for Pennsylvania and its Supreme Court justices.
California
Of all the ballot measures being voted on, California’s Proposition 50 was perhaps the most important. The proposition passed, meaning California will use a new congressional map from 2026 to 2030.
Proposition 50 was a redistricting scheme designed to net Democrats extra House seats in next year’s midterms. Now that the proposition has passed, Democrats are poised to gain an extra 5 seats in the lower chamber. Governor Newsom celebrated the victory, calling on other blue states to take similar actions.
Conclusion
Though the election results are not what many Christians prayed for, they are what the Lord gave us. These results may be discouraging, but we have to remain steadfast in prayer!
Let’s pray for our new leaders in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York City. Let’s pray for Pennsylvania and it’s Supreme Court. Let’s pray for California and other blue states eyeing redistricting strategies. Above all else, let’s pray that God’s plans for our nation would not be stopped, and let’s pray for him to turn these results around in the midterms!

These election results are signs of we are getting closer to the end times. Evil is good and good is evil. The people made their choices. In 1 Samuel 10:17-27 reads the people rejected God as their king and gave them Saul who they wanted to be their King. So what do we do? We as believers must pray like never before and share the Gospel like never before. This young generation needs to know Jesus is the way the truth and the life. John 14:6
Lord Heavenly Father these results are concerning for sure. I am frustrated because this election year has not been great. I do not understand why voters do not vote or stay engaged with this stuff. I know I’m guilty this election season because I did not vote this season because I had a lot going on maybe that’s the case for a lot of other voters but it’s not an excuse. The elections are important because they decide our future and the direction of our country from the local elections all the way to the national. Lord I’m frustrated with how the election process has been geared so heavily around campaign donations and I honestly believe it’s a voter turn off and likely why voters disengage. My opinion is voters supporters should only have to help support candidates in their own state and presidential races. I have supported Kari Lake for Arizona in the past and I live in Texas and yet still either Arizonians did not show up or there was election shenanigans going on but that’s when I decided that the campaigns and FEC need to be DOGED and fixed because that’s been issues voters face as well. I’ve contacted congress a couple times about it in some of the surveys. I even emailed my representative and his team about it and I never got a response back but Lord I don’t know I just think the playing field needs to be examined and leveled to where voters shouldn’t have to worry about “Mega Donors” buying allegedly buying elections or “rigging them”. Father I pray for fair elections across the board that God you’d bless and lead the leaders of our country to work to lgether to fix the problems we have, that they would be constitutionally minded that God that they would pursue what is right. Lord God it is your will I pray to be done in Jesus’s mighty name, Amen
This is a war not on earthly levels but spirit like God didn’t know of these elections, he is not sitting in heaven wringing his fingers, wonder what is going on, but we the remnant need to pray, like our depended on it, for our children and grandchildren. This nation is no different than what happened in bible times, Israel turned their backs on God, they didn’t to worship him, so he gave them over to their enemies, America people have short memories, 9/11 people were flocking to churches, COVID. I am praying for the saints in America wait up, and discern the times we are living in. Pray seek the God of heaven.
Yes., they won in liberal blue states… in my area voter turnout was extremely low… in an off year election., sadly people don’t vote… it’s not a referendum on President Trump… it’s apathy on our part
I once heard a politician say that “democrats are merely immature republicans”.
I can see some truth in that statement because all politicians love the money that they reap through insider trading and the controls they push for to funnel huge money into their pockets, however, it is true that when you look deeper, do honest research, you will discover that it’s the republican party that is actually “for the people” while the democrats are for for “keeping the people in bondage”. Remember that God raises up kings and removes them. God has wisdom beyond our narrow vision and His purposes are much higher, but not always aligned with ours. We prefer comfort, safety, laws in line with God’s word and like it or not we are also affected by our culture and peers. The bottom line is that we must trust God foremost, but not fear that “the sky is falling” when the party that apposes God wins some elections.
Red State America will not tolerate jihadi commies.👎👎🇺🇸⚔️🇮🇱
In my view, Tuesday’s election results are a grim indication of satan’s deception of the American people, particularly in New York City. It’s unthinkable that after radical muslims destroyed the World Trade Center towers and took many American lives, that New York City would blindly elect a radical muslim and communist as mayor.
It. is clear evidence also that our educational system is and has been an abject failure by their failure to teach civics and American history and the value of Capitalism over Socialism (Communism).
The Democratic Party only cares about acquiring and keeping power over the people, regardless of the consequences. This will lead to the downfall of America if we as praying Christians don’t get serious about our commitment to pray day, with fervor, for our country and those who lead it.
I’m just praying everyday, through out the day. Mamdani I am really praying for, him being Mayor is not good for the country or NY
I’m taking a deeper dive into Jesus. I have given too much time to County political activities with a zero return on the investment and, although the people are wonderful, the Lord is my best friend along with my wife.
I see it as a sign that the end of time is near. Those who worship satan and all his evils have won this round. If the midterms follow this trend then we need to pray morning noon and night that God protect us from the evils that are coming. Those doing satan’s work are lost to eternal damnation. Let God’s will be done I trust in God. 🙏😇🙏
“Dear Lord, have mercy on America. I feel so torn, Lord. Please help us go deeper in the faith and our trust in you. Keep us in the scripture as we grow in knowledge and wisdom. Thank you for your ever present help as we go forward. I pray for these new leaders throughout the country. May they turn to you as they make decisions for our country. Please bring revival to our nation. In Jesus Name..Amen”
Yes, Revival, Lord Jesus, more than a revival, a change from ‘dead in trespasses and sins’ to ‘alive in the Spirit of Jesus’ come to the people and families of our nation. Especially the children, whom Satan’s minions are targeting.
Yesterday, a little girl in our Pathrunners after school Bible memory club saw a picture of Jesus painted on the basement wall ascending to heaven.
“Why did He leave us?”
“Oh, Jesus didn’t leave us, He went to heaven so He could send His Spirit to live in each of us. Now Jesus is with all who believe in Him forever.” She was greatly comforted by this and asked if she could draw it on the front of her Bible. 🙂
Holy Jesus, descend upon the children who hear and believe in a mighty way as they learn to listen and follow your voice! Let the children be the Holy Spirit fires that break out of the pits and enflame our country with the Truth!
Mamdani wants war, well he’s got it! As intercessors let us unite to bind all principalities and powers over Mamdani, NY city and the surrounding areas!! We must bind all evil schemes and plans of the enemy trying to push Socialism! We must bind all witchcraft spirits that are also deeply involved in the destruction of Godly order and rule in American cities!
I have not been following Trump’s words regarding Israel, but I do agree with Mr. Cohen that God takes seriously how nations, or people, deal with Israel. The scripture is pretty plain when it says, about Israel, he who blesses Israel I will bless and he who curses Israel I will curse. that is pretty plain. Trump is getting advice from folks who have no heart for Israel.
Jesus, Trump needs your input into his heart. Bless him with the insights and wisdom that he can make choices that are good for Israel and America, as well as the other nations of the world.
Blessed fellow intercessors in America,
Since the UN General Assembly in September, we at Intercessors for Israel have noticed a change in President Trump’s attitude in dealing with God’s nation and with PM Bibi Netanyahu.
He has openly boasted of pressuring Bibi to agree to his Gaza ceasefire deal – which is very dangerous and totally unrealistic.
He has even threatened to remove all American support from Israel if Israel dared to annex – which is the wrong word as no one annexes that which is already theirs – Judea and Samaria.
Thus this American President is resisting that which God is doing with all of His heart and soul (Jer. 32:41)!
And now he wants two sworn enemies of Israel – Turkey and Qatar – to oversee the disarming of Hamas – whom they have been supporting even before the October 7th massacre!
I submit to you that this is the biblical reason why Trump’s party did so badly and that if he does not turn from his anti-Israel policies, then worse is in store.
The reality is that God judges nations based on their dealings with His nation.
And He tends to be furious with unreliable “allies” of Israel.
Before you think I am exaggerating, see here for an in-depth study on this:
https://www.ifi.org.il/en/teachings/why-god-judges-nations
We are praying for you, the American Body, to discern what really matters to God and then to stand in the gap crying out for mercy for your nation (Ezek. 22:30-31).
Shalom from Zion
