We present our case before the Throne
We Overrule the Declaration and Projection
Released by the experts that
“100-200 thousand lives will be lost Through COVID19.“
The tongue that has been raised against us we refute ,
we overrule and we declare:
We shall live and not die. We will declare the goodness of The Lord and fulfill the length of our days in the land of the living,
Isaiah 54:17,Psalm 27:13,Psalm 118:17
You invited us , “Come now, and let us reason together,”
Put Me in remembrance;Let us contend together;
State your case, that you may be acquitted.
Isaiah 43:26,Isaiah 1:18
You asked us,”Call Me and I will show you great and mighty things.” Jeremiah 33:3, Show your might and display your power in the midst of our enemies. Psalm 68:28
We call on The Name above all names , that every knee will bow to
The Name – Jesus Christ.
Having disarmed principalities and powers,
He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.“
To this defeated, disarmed, paralyzed demonic covid19 virus that is raising havoc on this earth, to bow to The Name.
We command you the spirit of plague
to cease and desist in Jesus Name.
Philippians 2:9 ,Colossians 2:15
WE STATE OUR CASE AND WE BRING TO YOUR REMEMBRANCE
“Would You also destroy the righteous with the wicked? Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would You also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it?
Far be it from You to do such a thing as this,
to slay the righteous with the wicked,
so that the righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You!
Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”
AS YOU ANSWERED THE INTERCESSION OF ABRAHAM
“If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city,
then I will spare all the place for their sakes.”
OUR HIGH PRIEST ,JESUS CHRIST
ASKED US TO ASK YOU IN HIS NAME
Genesis 18,John 14:12-18
FORGIVE US AND SPARE OUR LAND.
THERE ARE MORE THAN FIFTY OF US CRYING FOR MERCY
WE CRY FOR THE LOST SOULS
WE ASK THAT IN THEIR LAST BREATH
THEY WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD AND BE SAVE.
Romans 10:13
Thank You Father in Jesus Name
Amen
In the middle of a 40 day (partial) fast, praying daily for the President, cabinet, advisors to receive the counsel of our Almighty Kind & Merciful God…
personally God is working on my heart ~ times of seeing with new eyes – times of receiving a cleansing of hands and a new heart.
1Jn2:3-6 (NLT). And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. 4 If someone claims, “I know God,” but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5 But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him. 6 Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.
1Jn 3:8 But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil.
Oh my God and Savior, you are so alive! As much as I am on the internet researching material to teach those with disabilities and for spiritual growth I have never come across your site. I have spent so much time growing in intimacy through prayers and sometimes interceding without understanding for years. During sheltering in place I heard a clear word from God that is has called me to another level of praying which is why He led me to your site including a mentor. I might add, the Lord placed me on a fast that is acceptable unto Him. I thank you so much for putting up this site to help intercessors develop into “Mighty Warriors” for these end times. The Lord bless all of you!
My heart is very still today.
When we have done all we know to do, then we stand. “Be still and know that I AM GOD.”
We know GOD’s character: He is too kind to hurt us unnecessarily,too wise to make mistakes. HE has no wish for any to perish but that all would come to the saving knowledge of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Without HIM we can do nothing. This is GOD’s world and GOD has the last word.
The Lord showed me these 2 verses:
Luke 21:10-11 Then he continued by saying to them, Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. (NASB)
I read this verse the day before the earthquake in Utah occurred and thought well we have a plague (coronavirus) and famines (locusts in East Africa) but no earthquake. Then the next day I saw the headline about the earthquake and looked up this verse again.
Heb 12:27-29 (NASB)
This expression “Yet once more,” denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire.
I feel like this verse speaks to what is happening throughout the world right now. Everything we trust in, hope for, expect, in terms of finance, government, education, health, world order, etc. is being shaken as we are faced with something that is unknown and fearful and which we cannot control. God is stripping away everything that we take for granted and everything we trust in and allowing us to “pause” and reflect on the only one sure foundation (for those who are believers) which is the unshaken kingdom we have in Him. And our appropriate response should be reverence and awe. (Which interestingly enough, “awe” is my “one word” for this year.
Yes, I did fast for most of it, and I pray daily. Thank you IFA for all you do to encourage us, as well as inform us of important issues. God is good and hears the prayers of the righteous. He alone is worthy of Praise! He inhabits the praise of His people. Very important!
During the fast/pray time, and even before, the Lord revealed to me that we do not need to be afraid. Many times he tells His people “Do not fear, for I am with you. I will strengthen you and help you”. Isaiah 41:10, vs. 13, and many other places in His word. He is bigger and stronger than anything we can imagine.
While I was praying, He led me to pray for Unity amongst believers and our government. He also placed an urgency for all believers to pray daily and fervently for the welfare of our country and the world. Not just the physical health issues but the spiritual health issues of the lost. Now is the time to rise up fellow brothers and sisters in the LORD, like never before. Our time is short on this earth and we are here for such a time as this.
During the fast I also read Prov 19:23 The fear(awe) of the LORD leads to life, so that one may sleep satisfied, untouched by evil.
Prov 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous runs into it and is safe.
Psalm 20 – great chapter! vs 1) May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble! vs 6) Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of His right hand.
It is easy to listen to the voices of the world and forget who is in charge. Rest in the Lord beloved, seek Him with all your heart and you will find Him. We live in a fallen world but He has overcome it and so shall we, with His help. Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
His grace, mercy and peace be upon us all, thru Jesus Christ, God’s son.
I wholly agree!!!
God is in charge!!!
He hears His people!
He will shorten the days for the elect’s sake!!!
Yes, I did fast and pray and I will continue to pray, praise the Lord, and rejoice in Him. Jesus is Lord!
I have been asking the Lord about this virus. He has shown me, we need to repent as a body that we havent stood strongly in unity against the sin in this nation. When NY lights up a building celebrating and proclaiming murder inside and survivors outside of the womb is acceptable, and WA state votes drag queens into the schools to indoctrinate our children and we are silent not outraged then this is a mark against this nation. The Word of God says “It would be better for a millstone to be tied around your neck and cast into the sea then to cause a little one to stumble.” God forgive us God is calling the Body of Yeshua to arise and push back the gates of hell and demonic attack in this land, with one voice. Years ago the Body stopped that movie ” The Temptation of Christ.” It never showed in the theatres. Why? Because we stood together across this nation. We must wake up and stand together again, no more bakers,florists, and online websites standing alone. We must stand and cry out “We are not ashamed of the Gospel of Yeshua!” Also realize the Word of God and His laws or instruction must be the only Word that His people go by, to proclaim His Word in Love and Truth! God has a mighty plan for this nation not because we are better than other nations but He formed us to show others that God desires freedom for all men, not freedom to sin but to worship God freely and openly, to proclaim the good news. This virus has shown me even if you are in a state that is trying to stand, to follow Gods rules, that sin has a long reaching arm and must be stood up against in all states. To declare “Let God arise and His enemies be scattered.” That we war not against flesh and blood. To be zealous like David, Phineas, Deborah and Esther. There is hope in the name of Yeshua! Hallelujah! Pray for those to repent and others to not get shipwrecked faith. If God kept His people in Goshen He can keep us as we walk in His ways and follow His commands.
I heard the Lord say to be still and know that he is GOD. I also heard the lord say to pray for UNITY, in the Government, and That all believers would be in UINITY at this time.
…having done all… stand fast.. Ephesians 6:13,14
It’s time to REPENT on behalf of our lives- our family’s lives- our government
Our nation
We repent God- we turn from our wicked ways of:
Not giving You first fruits
Slandering Your saints
Giving the enemy a legal right thru unforgiveness & anger
Porn
Gambling
Abortion
Drug use
Drinking
Religious spirits
Word curses
List
Retail therapy
Hoarding
Greed
Putting $ 1st
Coveteousness
Stinginess
Selfishness
Stinky thinking
Etc
We REPENT & ask You to heal our land.
We cover this ALL OVER WITH YOUR BLOOD LORD … In Jesus’ Name & for His glory … hallelujah & amen!!!
I prayed this morning for children who are home from school, that God will bless their family time and build loving and loyal relationships. Also, that God will protect them from being exposed to evil on the internet or TV, but instead, they will seek out Christian websites with answers to questions about the meaning of life. This PAUSE has the potential for great good in their lives.
“My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose.” Isaiah 46:10
Then I thought of children who are not in good, safe home situations: ones for which going to school is a reprieve from where they live. I began asking God to protect, protect, protect them from every form of wickedness. May they be covered with the blood of the Lamb and the name of Jesus. I pray that they find Christian channels on TV and Christian links on the internet where they can come to know the Savior and know His love for them.
Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection. Proverbs 30:5 Amen.
I just wanted to share what was on my heart yesterday when posting on facebook. I just listened to the last Friday call today and some of the scriptures are the same the Lord shared with me. Yesterday I read about the shaking God is doing in the world and posted a little on that. I’m thankful for this ministry and I’m standing firm, praying and fasting with you all~
I can only imagine what this time brings for those who do not know the saving grace of Jesus Christ. I would encourage you to seek your faith and trust God is in control and rule out any fear people are experiencing. The word says in Psalms 46:10 New International Version (NIV)
10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”
There is a shaking going on in the world for the Lord to remove those things that are shakable so only the unshakable can remain. As prophesied in the Intercessors for America post yesterday. https://www.ifapray.org
Hebrews 12:26 At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”
As a sister, I would say peace to you.
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
Take heart during this time and heed the voice of the authorities God has placed over us. God elects leaders, so respect and honor them and follow the guidelines set forth for us by our leaders. You are loved and you are all in my thoughts and prayers as I pray. May God unite us globally and let us see the face of God! Prepare yourselves (repent and turn to God through His precious son of God Jesus Christ, who died for you), he is coming soon. The time is near!
Romans 13:1 Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves.
Psalms 133:1 “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity”
This is the time for us, the church, the body of Christ, to share the message of Jesus, the promises, the Divine power of the Word of God for the Lost are ripe and ready to hear the message, “Salvation”.
There are several things: pray about:
1) the “lock-down” happening in some states. Can you imagine JESUS, Who walked on water and rose from the grave, being locked down??
2) continued patience in the hearts of the people;
3) as families are “reunited” as they are unleashed from overly busy schedules that relationships are strengthened, involved in much more heart-to-heart interaction and become thriving as people respect, appreciate, encourage and support one another.
4) that parents would resume their roles as TEACHERS/MENTORS/PROTECTORS of their children (in many areas this is a blessing that children are no longer in public schools).
5) BIBLE reading and study regain their importance WITHIN THE FAMILY SETTING.
6) that those who are being called by GOD into positions of leadership and authority would respond immediately and obediently– especially those who have questioned their “abilities”
7) the body would respond to Holy Spirit guidance and not fear refusing to be compromised by governmental infringement upon Constitutional rights
Our greatest weapon, next to our faith, is our WORSHIP: PSALM 96:
A Call to Worship the Lord the Righteous Judge.
1 Sing to the Lord a new song;
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.
3 Tell of His glory among the nations,
His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
4 For great is the Lord and greatly to be praised;
He is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are [a]idols,
But the Lord made the heavens.
6 Splendor and majesty are before Him,
Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
7 [b]Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
[c]Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
8 [d]Ascribe to the Lord the glory of His name;
Bring an [e]offering and come into His courts. (Fortunately, we now are IN JESUS in the Throne Room, but may need to get on the altar as a living sacrifice — comments are mine.)
9 Worship the Lord in [f]holy attire;
Tremble before Him, all the earth.
10 Say among the nations, “THE LORD REIGNS; (emphasis added)
Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved;
He will judge the peoples with [g]equity.”
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;
Let the sea [h]roar, and [i]all it contains;
12 Let the field exult, and all that is in it.
Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy
13 Before the Lord, for He is coming,
For He is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness
And the peoples in His faithfulness.

AMEN! THANKS BE TO GOD! He deserves all the glory and praise. I tried hitting the AMEN button but nothing happened ….THANK YOU FOR THIS and PRAISE GOD!
Thank you for this powerful call to Fast and Pray!
My husband and I Pastor a church here in California and we have had mandatory shut in where we cannot leave our homes due to this virus ! We have had to daily reach out to our church family and have encouraged them to hold tightly to their word ! We asked them as families to gather their children daily and begin to read the Bible to them! Encouraged them to read from children’s bibles or easy to understand and to teach and train their children up in Gods word ! To read those bible stories of Moses / David and Joseph so that our next generation of children —will know their God !
To obey – Dueteronomy 6: 4-9
“ Hear o Israel; The Lord our God ; The Lord is one. You shall Love the Lord your God with All your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children; and shall talk of Them when you sit in your house and when you walk by the way and when you lie down; and when you rise .You shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the door posts of your house and on your gates”
God has been showing me that as we spiritually lead Gods people that we need to remind them to Trust in God – to gather their families during this time of isolation and turn to the word of God !
He is raising up His church for such a time as this!!
We stay anchored to Him!!
Thank you for praying!!
Also my hubby has been sick for 10 days wirh fly and just got call that COVID19 results came back negative !! God hears the cries of His people
“I will extol You, my God, O King; And I will bless Your name forever and ever. Every day I will bless You, And I will praise Your name forever and ever. Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; And His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise Your works to another, And shall declare Your mighty acts. I will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, And on Your wondrous works. Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts, And I will declare Your greatness. They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness, And shall sing of Your righteousness. The LORD is gracious and full of compassion, Slow to anger and great in mercy. The LORD is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works. All Your works shall praise You, O LORD, And Your saints shall bless You. They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom, And talk of Your power, To make known to the sons of men His mighty acts, And the glorious majesty of His kingdom. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, And Your dominion endures throughout all generations. The LORD upholds all who fall, And raises up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look expectantly to You, And You give them their food in due season. You open Your hand And satisfy the desire of every living thing. The LORD is righteous in all His ways, Gracious in all His works. The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them. The LORD preserves all who love Him, But all the wicked He will destroy. My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD, And all flesh shall bless His holy name Forever and ever.”
Psalms 145:1-21
I
Joey,
I was on my knees praying this Psalm yesterday! LOVE when Holy Spirit does that!
Very strange. Is there a limit on AMENS one post can get? I tried to click the Amen but it did not do anything to up the count! AMEN! GLORY BE TO GOD!
A Pause for Prodigal America
God has granted us a pause, a time to turn around and reflect where we are individually and as a nation. It’s also called mercy. For too many years we have tried to do it on our own. We left the house of our Father and decided we wanted to do things our way. Well, how’s that going for us? I think when we look around we are no different that the prodigal son who woke up one day, finding himself feeding the pigs and realizing there is a better way waiting for him at home, with his father. He has had his back to the father, not listening to him or wanting anything to do with his ways for far too long. But now he humbles himself knowing that his way was not the best way. So he turns and looks in the direction of home. Will his father accept him? He smells bad, is dirty from wallowing in the mud, wearing filthy rags. He returns home saying “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.” And how does his father respond? His father fixes the fatted calf for him, puts him in the finest robe, puts the ring on his finger and sandals for his feet. Is this not what the Father is waiting for prodigal America? If we humble ourselves, pray, seek His face and turn from our wicked ways, God will hear us, forgive us our sins and heal our land. And what will come out of this, REVIVAL! He is going to shake everything that is not necessary in our lives releasing us from the death grip of the enemy. When you wake someone up from a deep sleep sometimes you have to shake them to awaken them. He is telling the church to wake up and get to work.
Oh Lord My God grant me mercy and grace as i share for the first time ever publicly a word I have received from you. During the IFA prayer call this morning a word from the Lord came to me… I believe the Lord said..
Though these are not the end times that I have told you about (the last 7 years)in the book of revelation, …these are “like” the end times to many. I have allowed this to be to leave a reminder to those who are without faith that in the end times they will REMEMBER this time in history when the church prayed and God answered. It will be left for those (as an example of God’s mercy) who will rise up and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. May God grant those with eyes to see and ears to hear this remembrance.
God gave me Jer 1:9-10
“Then the Lord stretched out His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me, “Behold (hear Me), I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms, To uproot and break down, To destroy and to overthrow, To build and to plant.”
Jeremiah 1:9-10 AMP
This is also what the Lord put on my heart:
“For you have need of patient endurance [to bear up under difficult circumstances without compromising], so that when you have carried out the will of God, you may receive and enjoy to the full what is promised. For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come, and will not delay. But My righteous one [the one justified by faith] shall live by faith [respecting man’s relationship to God and trusting Him]; And if he draws back [shrinking in fear], My soul has no delight in him.”
Hebrews 10:36-38 AMP
Pt 2
On Wednesday morning, 3/18/20, The Lord let me know that my position is the position of praise – like David praised. It was a praise of victory. This exuberant praise was because of his victory over the Philistines. It was a result of David consulting the Lord for instructions EACH time the enemy tried to attack. David obeyed and was successful (rd 2 Sam 5&6). We must do the same at EVERY turn of this battle.
He then gave me 2 Sam 5:20 “… The Lord has broken through my enemies like a flood. And so that place is called Baal Perazim,” which in Hebrew means, “Lord of the Breakthrough.”
As we continue in this a battle, we will see the breakthrough of the Lord if we consult Him for instructions and obey.
Yes, i believe that just like in II Chronicles 20 when Israel with Jehoshaphat at its helm, was confronted with all sorts of enemies. Jehoshaphat, among other things praises the LORD, saying among other things to Him: ” And are You not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand so that no one can stand against You.” Then Jahaziel adds in verse 15:”“Listen,… thus says the Lord to you, ‘Do not fear or be dismayed … for the battle is not yours but God’s….17…Do not fear or be dismayed; …go out to face them, for the Lord is with you.” (And, i would add contemporarily: IN YOU.) 18 Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before the Lord, worshiping the Lord.
And the KEY? Verse 20: “Listen …, PUT YOUR TRUST IN THE LORD YOUR GOD…. and succeed.” 21 … he appointed those who sang to the Lord and THOSE WHO PRAISED HIM in holy attire, as they went out before the army and said, “Give thanks to the Lord, for His lovingkindness is everlasting.”
I’m sure you know the punchline found in the remaining verses of Chapter 20.
Yes!!! God was showing me this as well! And Hezekiah and his response to any enemy! Prayer and praise!!!! Belief and faith!
Mrs. D
He gave that scripture to me last Fri. I didn’t post it because I had about 4 posts, lol, and didn’t want to bombard with my comments 😬😇
In the past months and years, I have been very concerned about disception, collusion, and corruption in our government. So as I was praying about the “shaking” that is going on, I had a picture in my mind of a rotten building with an attractive facade built in front of it. I found myself praying for the facades to crumble and the rottenness behind it to be revealed.
YES!! Reminds me of when Jesus called the Pharisees “whitewashed sepulchres”!
Yes, i too have been praying that TRUTH would be revealed and embraced, as old altars crumble and believers as living sacrifices will lay aside carnality to reveal the LIVING LORD. Thank you for this post.
There is much that the Lord has given me over these last 2 days and even last week. I will post in two postings.
Last week on Wed, this is what the Lord spoke:
“My army does not equip themselves efficiently for battle. I’ve given all that’s needed – including the victory, but you all too easily forget what’s needed and go on your own devices to win the battle. Because that is not sufficient, you find yourselves in the same battles again.
Every army has a commanding officer for a reason: to guide and instruct his soldiers. I am the Commanding Officer. I know the strengths and weaknesses of each soldier. I know what position each one needs to be in. When you are out of position, it disrupts the entire unit.
My children are out of position, therefore cannot hear instruction clearly for the battle. Yet, there are some things that I don’t share in advance. I want to see if My soldiers will trust Me in the thick of the battle… Stay close and remain equipped to combat battle fatigue. I have given all that you will ever need for the battle.”
As the battle presses on, I am seeing God’s people moving into position 👏🏽 🙌🏽
Oh Lord My God grant me mercy and grace as i share for the first time ever publicly a word I have received from you. During the IFA prayer call this morning a word from the Lord came to me… I believe the Lord said..

I agree with this. There is an eschatological feel to this crisis. Maybe it is also training for the church for a time that is coming in the not-too-distant future.
yes Sharon!
God gave me JEREMIAH 32:17;33:6,9,11,26 to pray & declare at our church prayer service last night….
Ah, Sovereign Lord, You have made the heavens and earth by Your Great Power and outstretched Arm. Nothing is too hard for You. Heal Your people and let us enjoy abundant Peace and security.
I declare that this city will bring You renown, joy, praise and honor for all the good things You do for it. And we will be in awe and will tremble at the abundant prosperity and peace You provide for us.
I give thanks to You Lord Almighty, for You are Good, and Your Love endures forever. Thank You that You will restore the fortunes of this land as they were before and have compassion on us.
I had read of people putting up Christmas lights to bring light to this dark time. Then God gave me an idea…
why not put crosses on our doors (instead of a wreath), or place a cross in a window. Protection, faith, identification,
confession…all because of the blood of Jesus shed on the cross! Plus, Easter is coming! So may the Cross of Christ
become a familiar sight. Our neighbours may just want prayer or encouragement, peace and hope. The cross on
our homes can serve as a welcoming to them, and an invitation for them to meet Jesus. Let’s spread this idea
and hopefully see our nation filled with crosses.
Thank you for encouraging us to fast! So grateful for IFA!
Love that!!! Great idea!!!
Please consider why would God cause a worldwide pause in this season? First He paused the Chinese New Year, now it’s the Iranian Nowruz, also our drunken St. Patrick’s Day festival, and quite possibly our Easter egg hunts. Hosea 2:11 “I will cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts” . We need to be approaching this prayer time with much greater seriousness and humility. Our nation has exported porn, abortion, feminism and legalized homosexuality. Read any of the Old Testament prophets and plagues are judgment. Our greatest priority is praying for repentance. Over and over, Is. 57:17, Jer. 6:13,14 God repeats He hates our covetousness. And our prophets are telling us this will all be over soon, just trust Him. Wake up. We are the Laodicean church worrying about toilet paper Rev 3:17 . We are walking after vanity and become vain, Jer. 2:: 5-9 The Lord is pleading with us. We can all quote 2 Chr. 7:14. Look up 2 Chr. 7:13, it’s like opening God’s playbook. Since Jan. 1, 2020 we had the fires from drought where the ENTIRE nation of Australia was burning. God sent 15 inches of rain to end 240 days of drought. Now we are having both the locust and the pestilence. He says “if” we humble ourselves. Is. 58:10 tells us what a real fast looks like. Maybe we should consider sharing our respirators and masks with Iran. Maybe we need to be demanding what has happened to the Uighur in this crisis. We are all “lovers of self”. Let’s consider a true fast of Facebook and get into His book. Look at Amos 7. Again it’s God’s playbook. Locust. Amos prayed and the plague was averted. let us pray about the plague of locust. Ask Keith Cressman with FAO. The fires were averted. Next God mentions the plumbline. We need to be asking, Is my stance on abortion the plumbline for America? We need to implore our neighbors to search their hearts. Many in the church still support a women’s right to decide. Why are we not praying for the locust plague devastation in 15 countries around the world if we are going to call this global prayer and intercession? Are we asking God to reveal where we as a nation have missed His will like when God revealed 2 Sam. 21 His displeasure over the Gibeonites? We abandoned the Kurds. We made a trade deal with China, in spite of the facts that the CCP bulldozed 5000 churches last year and imprisoned millions of people for their faith. Check the facts, Wuhan had one of the largest Christian populations in China. Oh God my cry is if I am otherwise minded, reveal to me your heart, Phil. 3:15. Please Lord grant us a love for your truth 2 Thess. 2 : 10 – 13. Oh that we would remember from where we have fallen, Rev. 2:5. George Washington would not even tolerate his officers or soldiers to cuss in his first army. We watch filth on Netflix without batting an eye. We are a nation given over to uncleanness, Ezekiel.39: 21 – 24. Our pastors are afraid to call out the porn watched by church goers. Pray for our children home from school in homes with pedophiles and on-line stalkers. Pray for those who may be considering suicide because they are frightened or currently cut off from their churches and celebrate recovery groups. But please I beg you to urge people to open their Bibles in this “pause” and read it like the Bereans. God have mercy on us.
WOW! What an important eye- and heart-opening compilation/revelation. Thank you for sharing and, most of all, for re-iterating that we need to be with our faces and hearts into GOD’s Word.
May we all be open to the continued work He is doing in and through each of us. BLESS YOU and the thousands, and expectantly, millions, of other intercessors who are open to listening obeying and sharing, as appropriate, the things GOD is sharing.
Thank you for enlightening us even further – and your rebuke… I was wondering yesterday why there’s been no mention of the locusts lately.
I have felt exactly the same thing. The Lord is, again, trying to get our attention. There was 9/11, then the crash of 2008 and now this. “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and confess their sins I will heal their land.” Think about each word.
I, too, have been praying for the Christians in Wuhan and elsewhere in China and also for the Church in Iran. May the Lord use this to set those believers free! America has been walking hand in hand with China, a violent, immoral and repressive regime. People were made afraid to speak in support of the people of Hong Kong! Corporate America was taking the side of repression! People in this country were defending Solemaini and condemning the U.S. for ending his murderous career.
May the Church come out from among them. May we as believers make the most of every opportunity because the days are evil!
Thank you David Kubal and staff for all the you do! I look forward to the monthly prayer calls! God bless you all!
As I was on a prayer call here in Denver yesterday, and we were praying for our nation and the people affected by all the shut downs, I heard two things: One: The word “Repurpose”, I felt that the Lord was going to give employers witty ideas and strategies on how to repurpose their employees in order to give them work, as well as, those out of work getting witty ideas and inventions, even new business ideas, that they will love better than their former jobs–these new jobs will give them delight because it will use the gifts that God has instilled in them since birth. Two: I heard “Baby Boom”, I felt that the Lord was saying that where there has been death, He will bring life, and the sign is with an increase of babies being born next year. Praise God for His faithfulness and goodness to us! Amen!
Interesting, i got a witness in my spirit about the “baby boom,” and i agree with the word “re-purpose.” That may also refer to a refined vision in believers’ hearts as to each one’s perception of his or her “purpose.” We should be open to new ways in which the LORD will be using us and how there may be continued transformation of that purpose as time passes.
I receive your texts to pray but am working. Beginning today I am on vacation. When I received your text to pray I joined in.
Early this morning my company allowed its employees to shop before the store opened. Once home, and putting the items away, the Holy Spirit put Rev 3:18 on my heart. My prayer is to understand what it means to ‘buy from the Lord’.
Earlier this week, in my own time of prayer, the Lord reminded me of Ps 91:14. I needed help this past year and I made it a point to learn the names of God. He has reminded me to pray and honor His Names.
I discovered IFA from my best friend. We were on the National Day of Prayer and the following calls. I’m so thankful for you all! We told our church family about you. I joined the 48 hour fasting and prayer. God helped me. It was a deep personal time with Him. He spoke to me that there is no salvation without obedience. Christ had to be obedient to go to the cross. We have to be obedient to receive His provision personally. He also spoke to me that we have been prepared for years through the fire of His Spirit for this day. I have felt the power of God flowing through me as I pray for the world. Bless you all as we stay in this persistent prayer.
Thank you for listening to the priesthood of all believers. We do not take this responsibility lightly! The need for each believer to HEAR and OBEY for him/herself in this season is paramount. God is calling the church to ARISE and SHINE – walk in maturity. The two major issues I am hearing are 1. Praying for government to continue to act on behalf of both our LIFE and our LIBERTY. They need wisdom for a divine balance to protect citizens and not to overreach in fear or panic. 2. For the economy – the everything shakeable would shake and that panic would not fuel a run on the banks causing greater issues.
I believe we have entered a time of reckoning. Along with my prayer time, God led me to this video supporting the prior statement. https://youtu.be/uC58aMHRMbA
I was ministering in Rockwall Texas February 1&2. A couple invited me to their business to pick out a gift. It was a huge warehouse filled with many beautiful items.
I was drawn to this canvas wall hanging: Pause
I shared this at the meetings. https://intrepidheart.org/pause/
Praying we can re-set to the rhythm of God’s grace as He heals this land.
NEAT testimony. It’s the Blood of the Lamb, the word of our TESTIMONY and loving not our lives to the death that causes the KINGDOM of GOD and the power of the Anointed JESUS and His Anointing (Christ) to come (His will on earth as it is in heaven) and the body of CHRIST to overcome the accuser of the brethren. (Revelation 12:10,11)
Revelation 12: 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
The Lord impressed upon me to pray for the same boldness that Peter and John displayed in Acts 4:13 that caused those around them to be amazed at their boldness. They were then threatened by the leaders to never talk again about the gospel. However, as soon as the leaders let them go, Peter and John went back to the other believers and prayed v29 “And now O Lord hear their threats and give us, your servants, GREAT BOLDNESS in preaching your word…then they preached the word of God with boldness (v31).”
Pray for believers to have that same boldness to share their faith in whatever opportunities God opens; to not be afraid of the gospel or the response of those they share, to find creative ways to share testimonies of what He is doing or has done in their lives or to speak peace to the future.
Boldness as in the days of Acts
Yes, “faith” is spelled like this “R I S K”
A few weeks ago the Holy Spirit said for me to baptize my husband….two days in a row. My husband said no AND that I was not allowed to baptize! I said yes I am! Funny Jeremy said at the end of the call that we disciples will be stepping up and doing things that we are authorized to do like baptism! Also, I heard very clearly this morning Jesus’s heart for His lost children. His heart breaks for those that are “ denying” Him. Therefore, I’ve been pressing in and contending not only for my family and friends but all humanity that is denying Christ.
Yes! I have felt that strongly too – to pray for those that don’t know Him. Thank you for sharing.
The Lord showed me 2 kings 8. It is the story of the woman who had provided a room for Elisha. Later, Elisha warned her there would be a famine in the land for 7 yrs, and she needed to move to another land. She did, and when she returned to Israel, she went to the king to get her land back. The Lord arranged it that Elisha’s servant was there telling the king how Elisha had raised her son from the dead. The king said, “Restore all that was hers, together with all the revenue of the fields from the day that she left the land until now.” I feel that the Lord is saying that if His people will give now, to the prophetic, spiritual leaders of our day, that after this Pause, finances will be restored, even revenue from businesses that was lost by the virus. Don’t worry about this temporary “famine” – because God is able in a minute to restore 7 yrs worth of revenue!
GOOD word! Thank you for sharing.
…And especially give to the poor. This is what the Lord put on my heart yesterday – to continue to tithe and give alms.
Amen!!! I agree!!! God is more than able to keep His children and to restore what the locust has eaten!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. It was very encouraging!
I have also seen that there are so many, many Godly leaders in place in our country who are praying and seeking our wonderful Father for answers!!! Pray for wisdom from above for them and for Hod to get all the glory as this thing comes to its swift end!!
I prayed and fasted! I feel God is moving like never before in our world! I also felt led to put oil on the doorposts of my house. And I also felt God tome me to proclaim outside—out loud—It is done!! It is finished!!!!
“It’s done! Yes, it’s done!
It’s done! Yes, it’s done!!
Through the precious blood of Jesus battle is won!!”
That is very interesting. I thought of putting oil on my doorposts too! The thought came to me during my fasting and praying, when the Israelites put the blood of the lamb on the door posts. The 2nd thought was the oil.
Yes, I felt the call to put oil on my doorposts as well. I haven’t done it yet, but will do it tomorrow.
