I Prayed

This week may turn out to be an historic prophetic juncture in the relationship of the United States and Israel and in the trajectory of the nation.
It starts with a spiritual law dating back to the call of Abram:
“I will make you (Abram) a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Gen. 12:2-3; Num. 24:9)
Our nation, which claims strong biblical roots, and which has richly enjoyed God’s blessings since its founding, cannot hope to escape God’s righteous judgments when we and our leaders’ sin.
Time and time again, we have witnessed throughout our national history that disasters occur when we stop blessing Israel. This includes when U.S. leaders seek to pressure Israel to divide its land or cede any part of Jerusalem, the city where God has chosen to put His name (1 Kings 11:13, 32). William Koenig, trusted Israel expert and author of Eye to Eye: Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel, has chronicled these disasters and their intimate link with U.S. foreign policy cursing Israel. Koenig was recently interviewed and gave a great summary of the evidence for this correlation.
By the way, this is not specific to the United States. There are many examples throughout Israel’s biblical history showing that when the leaders sinned, violating God’s covenants and commandments, the people of Israel suffered with invasion, plagues, and other disasters, ultimately causing Israel to be scattered throughout the earth.
This Week’s Prophetic Timeline
Friday, March 22, 2024. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned that a major Rafah operation by the IDF could result in global isolation and long-term security harm for Israel.
Coronal mass ejection (CME) exploded alongside a solar flare.
Saturday, March 23, 2024. Geomagnetic storm watch issued by NOAA, announcing a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the sun that would have impact through Monday.
Sunday, March 24, 2024. Vice President Kamala Harris refuses to rule out “consequences” for Israel, including arms embargoes and international isolation, if Israel goes ahead with actions in Rafah to stop Hamas.
Monday, March 25, 2024. In a meeting with Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Blinken reiterated U.S. opposition to a major operation in Rafah. Then, the United Nations Security Council unanimously passed a resolution demanding an Israeli ceasefire for the rest of the Muslim holiday of Ramadan (now through April 8, 2024). No requirement for the release of all hostages was linked to this resolution even though it had been in the past. The United States abstained rather than using its veto and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately cancelled plans to send a delegation to the United States to discuss plans for the operation in Rafah.
Within hours a worldwide geomagnetic storm from the CME hit.
1:27 a.m. Tuesday, March 26, 2024. The Francis Scott Key bridge over Baltimore harbor collapsed after being struck by a cargo ship whose guidance system may have been affected by the geomagnetic storm. (The cargo ship was carrying hazardous materials that were breached by the impact).
Was the bridge collapse an example of consequences for cursing Israel?
The Francis Scott Key Bridge that collapsed over the outer Baltimore Harbor was named after the American lawyer, author, and poet best known as the writer of the text of the American national anthem “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
The circumstances of the writing of the song are important. It was 1814, during the War of 1812. (That may seem wrong, but the conflict actually spanned from 1812 to 1815.) Key was watching the British bombardment of Fort McHenry from a ship moored in Baltimore, basically where the Key Bridge was.
As morning broke, he was full of joy that America had not succumbed to the British forces. He was deeply encouraged to see the American flag still flying over the fort at dawn. He quickly wrote the first verse on the back of the letter and by the end of four days completed the entire poem, which he titled, “Defence of Fort M’Henry.” It was published within a week with the suggested tune of the popular song “To Anacreon in Heaven.”
The song with Key’s lyrics became known as “The Star-Spangled Banner” and slowly gained in popularity as an unofficial anthem, finally achieving official status more than a century later under President Herbert Hoover.
The first verse of “The Star-Spangled Banner” is well known and worth reading slowly here again.
Oh, say! can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming;
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:
Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Does the Star-Spangled Banner yet wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
For thus says the LORD of hosts: “He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye” (Zechariah 2:8).
Essentially the leaders of the United States publicly betrayed Israel at the UN and are putting mounting pressure on Israel for a two-state solution. The public statements demonstrating this are numerous. The evidence indicates that these actions are bringing a Genesis 3 curse on our nation.
When any nation touches the Holy One of Israel in the apple of God’s eye (Deut. 32:10). Our God is not a God who will allow Himself to be mocked (Gal.6:7) and nations as well as individuals reap what they sow. God will remove His hand of protection, not causing disaster and destruction, but not stopping it, as we step out from under His protection by violating His covenants and His will. It is His mercy that allows us to respond in repentance.
The Star-Spangled Banner has four verses. The final stanza, which is rarely, if ever, talked about, is stunning.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto – “In God is our trust,”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Key knew the secret of the prevailing success of the fledgling United States of America. The secret is to respond to blessing and victory with praise to God: “Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!” He had no doubt about how the forces had made it through that night in 1814, or the decades before — it was God!
Then, from where do we derive our ability to conquer and how do we know as a nation that our cause is just? Because “in God is our trust.” Key declared that this nation’s relationship with God would be the source of success and victory. Acknowledging the God who made and preserved the nation, and putting trust in Him enabled the triumphs of the nation. The flag represents all of that spiritual truth and all of the purposes God has for this nation.
Yet, here we are, 212 years later. Our nation’s leaders do not praise the power that made and preserved us. Our nation’s leaders fight declaration of the national motto, “In God We Trust.” Our nation’s leaders are cursing Israel and actively working against God’s purposes and plans for Israel.
Consequences are a mercy and grace of God to wake this nation up and return us to the core principles that founded us: God’s power made and preserves us and our success and victory only comes as we declare our trust in Him.
Like the “freemen” in Key’s poem, intercessors “stand between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!” We seek the Lord for His purposes for America in the midst of a spiritual battle. We pray and contend for God’s purposes for the nation and for our nation’s relations with Israel no matter how bleak it seems.
Issues for intercession
- We must pray for the Biden Administration to support the effort of the State of Israel to defend itself against an aggressor who is committed to its annihilation. We also pray that the Administration will repent of its current foreign policies of dividing the land and manipulating Israel through threats of isolation and arms embargoes.Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations (Ps. 33:8-11).
- Pray for American leaders to have Daniels, Josephs, and Esthers as advisors. Pray for repentant hearts and the fear of Lord for leaders knowing that our nation will suffer the consequences of their decisions and they will one day give account. (Joel 3:1-3 and Gen. 12:3)
- Pray for the leaders of the Jewish people and for all Israel to receive revelation, discernment, and divine strategies on how to respond to international threats.
And he shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel: Today you are on the verge of battle with your enemies. Do not let your heart faint, do not be afraid, and do not tremble or be terrified because of them; for the Lord your God is He who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.’ (Deut. 20:3-4).
- Pray for the physical rescue of the hostages, approximately 134 Israelis (including babies) kidnapped by Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Palestinian Liberation Organization. Hamas is holding onto many corpses as bargaining chips.
And the LORD spoke to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me (Ex. 8:1).
Father, we know that Your mercy triumphs over judgment. As we move into the celebration of the resurrection of Yeshua, Israel’s Messiah, we ask for mercy on the United Sates and her leaders. Let Your kindness lead to repentance and heal our land. In Yeshua’s name we pray. Amen.

HUGE THANK YOU, Dave Kubal, IFA, Bonnie Wiedeman, et al, for all of your time, effort and dedication in researching, composing this article, comment, scriptures and prayers. It is ALL extremely useful/helpful and enlightening/informative, to say the least. God bless you all richly and keep you. Godspeed.
Dear friends, when you pray for Israel, pray the scriptures. Here is an example that you may find helpful:
O Lord God of Israel, You who keep Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps. (Psalm 121:) You promised that with all Your heart and all Your soul, You would bring Israel out of all the nations where You had scattered them and that they would dwell safely in their own Land, never to be uprooted again.(Jeremiah 32:41) (Amos 9:15) You said that the nation of Israel would never cease as a nation from before You as long as the ordinances in the sky remain. (Jeremiah 30:36) Remember Your covenant with Israel. Arise O God and let Your enemies be scattered. Let them flee from before You seven ways. (Psalm 68:1) But let all who bless Israel be blessed. (Genesis 12:3) Help those who stand in the gap to give You no rest until together, we see Your salvation. (Isaiah 62) We pray for Israel’s armies to be strong and courageous. Let their hearts not be afraid. For You, the Lord our God, are the One who fights for Israel against her enemies, in order to save Israel. (Deuteronomy 20:4) We pray that no weapon formed against Israel will prosper and every tongue that rises against Israel be condemned. (Isaiah 54:17) We pray for freedom for those in captivity, and comfort for all who mourn in Zion. (Isaiah 61) Save Your people Lord, that the nations might know, there is a God in Israel.

God does not forsake His promises. Lord God Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, Ruler of the universe, we praise you that, unlike so many humans, You honor Your Word. We know the conflicts all over the world are spiritual battles. May our prayers strengthen your angels as they fight against the enemy. Help us to put on the whole armor of God so that we are prepared for this battle. We know that this battle is not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers, against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Lord, give us the strength to fast and pray. This year almost 50% of the world will hold elections. God, as Christians we know that we truly are battling not just for the soul of America but we are battling for the 8,000,000,000 souls of this world. Holy Spirt give us wisdom to reach as many souls as possible. We know that the harvest is great but the laborers few. Pour out your Spirt God and defeat the enemy. In Jesus mighty name we pray.
I pray it becomes clear what wrong direction being taken is doing..Please make it evident the direction that should be taken.
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” Lord, we pray for the strengthening of the resolve of Israel’s leaders to commence with the upcoming invasion. We also ask that you remove from power in our own nation all who stand counter to your purposes for Israel.
I believe without a doubt God has warned us concerning Israel if we turn our backs on them we will reap whatever destruction happens within our country!
Praying for our leaders they will hear
the Lord’s warning’s!
I will bless those who bless you and CURSE those who curse you” OUR GOVERNMENT ARE UNHOLY PEOPLE SEEKING POWER AND NOTHING MORE. They promote evil and think they love God! Shame on our leaders. We are adking God to intercede and bring some of His wisdom to them!
Lord we pray for our leaders in government to change their hearts and their spoken words toward good for Israel and the hostages and away from giving into their enemies by siding with them. We pray the U.S. stand completely against Hamas and any thing they offer except for complete surrender to Israel and release of all hostages.
Heavenly Father, we do lift up those in control of our government and ask that You reveal Yourself and Your Truth to them. We also ask that You open the eyes of our church leaders so they may preach and teach Your Will in Your Truth only. Heavenly Merciful Father, we ask You to open the eyes of Your children Israel, so that may will realize and accept Jesus as their Messiah, unto life eternal with You. For Yiur Glory LORD Amen
We the United States must support Israel,to rid the bad people causing many lives to be lost.
This report conflicts with others (also from a Christian news source) that says the U.S. is still supplying weapons, indicating the U.S. IS supporting Israel.
“The U.S. is “quietly” giving Israel 2,000-pound bombs that are “rarely used by Western militaries anymore due to the scale of civilian casualties they can cause,” according to multiple reports.
Two THOUSAND pound bombs?? According to several outlets, the U.S. authorized new packages which “include more than 1,800 MK84 2,000lb bombs and 500 MK82 500lb ones.”
Meanwhile, Israeli outlet Haaretz reported on Sunday that Israel has created “kill zones” in Gaza to kill on sight anyone who enters, whether they are combatants or not. Sources say that the Israeli military will label anyone a terrorist, whether or not there is proof.
“In practice, a terrorist is anyone the IDF has killed in the areas in which its forces operate,” says a reserve officer who has served in Gaza.
“This was a very grave incident,” a senior Israel Defense Forces officer told Haaretz. “They were unarmed, they didn’t endanger our forces in the area in which they were walking.”
This is a page out of the Obama administration when anyone of military age could be arbitrarily labeled as a combatant to justify their death.
This is happening as the U.S. pays lip service to protecting civilians and slowing down the violence in Israel. They’re not. They’re not even trying.”
This is all very confusing. We must pray for the protection and preservation of God’s land, for certain, but I think we all need a great deal of discernment as to what is really happening and realize that neither side is 100% innocent in its actions.
Well said. Hopefully , this will be more than a “preaching to the choir” event. Lord Jesus, please, wake up our national leaders, and show them that they are reaping what they have sown, and give them cause and every opportunity to genuinely repent. thank you, Lord Jesus.
I’m praying for Israel. They are God’s people. The jews are The apple of God’s eye. We can’t be against them. Our God is an awesome God and He reigns forevermore. He is the King of Kings, Lord of lords. May USA recognize the mistake they have done , when we back off from defending Israel. Forgive us Lord. Have Mercy on Israel and the USA . In Jesus’s name.
Jane Austen wrote in 1811 of the battle of Albuera that; ‘How horrible it is to have so many people killed! – And what a blessing that one cares for none of them.’
With thirty thousand men women and children killed in Gaza it is well to remember that each Palestinian is loved by God and he is the one who ‘cares’.
It is true that the LORD God Almighty cares for every single human being. He desires Everyone to come to a saving knowledge of His Great Love by accepting Jesus Christ as their LORD, assuring them of eternal Life with Him. He weeps for the lost, alive or dead. He violence started was HORRIBLE and HORRIFIC!
War, hatred, violence, pain and suffering is from Satan, the one who hates!
Turn to Jesus … He Loves you T
Yes — this article is pointing to the TRUTH. God has consequences that worsen when we ignore the warnings. Time and time again, the Bible records these, as does Bill Koenig’s book that’s mentioned in this article. (Great book!) God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. His character and precepts, principles, commandments,…never change!
O God, save us by Your righteous right hand. We are a people gone astray. We have turned to our own way and not heeded Your warnings. Please forgive us and heal our land. Bring down the evil in high places and let Godly leaders seek Your face on behalf of America. Let us forever stand with Israel. In Jesus Mighty Name…
AMEN!! Thank you for publishing this. You are right on! God will accomplish His purposes no matter what! We pray for Israel and for our great country and its repentance!
I feel sorry for Joe Biden and his administration when they stand before God’s judgement for their turning their backs against Israel!! They are ignorant to what God has said about His chosen people, that he will curse those who turn their back against Israel!!!
Two apostles have spoken words of God moving to make the people of America to “see” the truth.
Donna Rigney’s most recent sermon. It began with her son John Rigney reciting a poem that the Lord gave him about The nails on the cross.
Then she goes into what the Lord showed her. Specifically, she said that people that opposed Trump will become Trump supporters and come to learn who has been lying within the institutions.
Apostle Dutch sheets read a message this morning (April 1st) including a dream from Gina Golston about the Star Spangled Banner.
In both of these messages, the Lord made it clear that He is going to move and help people “to see” truth.
In Gina’s dream, the Star Spangled Banner song was used. The dream was given to her mid March, well before the event at Key Bridge.
I am so thankful to God for this!
Praise God!
Thank you, Lord Jesus Christ!
Praise Jesus!
Part of the distraction in my life has been to convince family members of the truth about the institutions callings lies the truth and the truth called lies.
Concerning Israel, they need America! I didn’t realize how much until I saw the Holy Land documentary by His Glory Ministries. Former Israeli generals were interviewed speaking on this subject.
Opposing Israel does bring forth curses according to the Word of God.
I need to pray for Israel more, I have not been diligent in this to the point of neglect, focusing more on the USA.
Repented of this but it is important to publicly speak about neglecting prayer.
Amen !!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I have been praying for Israel, Bibi Netanyahu, the IDF and for salvation to come to the Palestinians. I’m sure others of us have prayed the same thing. Does God punish the entire nation when only a few (illegally “elected”) in this administration are acting against Israel against “we the people’s” wishes?? (I’ve been praying about this, too!)
The nation of Judah had some faithful Israelites, yet they were carried off with Judah. But there, Daniel and his three friends served God faithfully. If God does judge our nation, may we who believe still serve him faithfully.
Abba your word says if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray seek my face turn from their wick way then you will hear from heaven forgive their sins and heal their land. You also say your word will not go out and return to you without having accomplished its purpose and you say nothing can turn back your word. Your people are repenting of the grave wickedness that has infiltrated America and the world we are seeking your face. We look to you and trust you to do what you say you’re going to do. Strengthen your people to remain faithful to your word and to you. In Jesus name let it be.
I’ve been praying that this administration would bend their knee and acknowledge God and turn from their wicked ways in all regards especially Israel. This administration has forgotten God and one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. Let us all continue to pray and intercede for our nation.
In the authority of Jesus given to me, I decree, for every computerized attack against this nation, or any individual in it, there is a more powerful, Holy Spirit, counter attack that nullifies every evil intent to steal, kill, and destroy. For all those involved in the attacks, I decree the “Seeing Anointing” so they SEE what they are doing as evil, repent, and turn from their wicked ways in order to serve a Living God. Amen
(Not saying the destruction of this bridge was a cyber attack – but, just in case) 😏
Our small prayer group is standing in prayer for Israel and the United States to repent of our sins as a nation and receive His blessing.
You make a strong argument in this article that God is passing judgment on the United States for its criticisms of aspects of how Israel is carrying out this war. And you offer as evidence of this judgment, the correlation between coronal mass ejections/geomagnetic storms and comments made by government officials toward Israel. Considering that these solar events, according to NOAA, happen regularly, monthly, weekly, daily, and even multiple times a day, and that, again according to NOAA, the specific CME to which you refer reached our planet on Sunday morning and the accompanying geomagnetic storms were already in place before Monday’s comments by Blinken and Harris…to establish such a correlation seems a bit opportunistic at best.
But to establish a direct link between a geomagnetic storm and the loss of the Dali’s guidance system which in turn caused the ship to take down the bridge, and to use that link as the core of your proposition of God’s judgment is very curious.
Nowhere have I found any such suggestion that the ship hit the bridge because it lost its guidance system. Indeed, at this point in time, and it is early in the investigation, all clearly observable evidence shows the ship losing total power while approaching the bridge. It went totally dark. No engines, no generators, no possible way to operate the rudders. And again, while so early in the investigation, attention is being focused on contaminated fuel or human error, among other possibilities. And even if the guidance system is functional, it is useless because without power they can’t steer the ship. In fact, the ship’s crew still had radio communications to be able to notify officials of their problem, something that you could suspect would not be possible under a severe geomagnetic storm event. Those communications saved lives as traffic was prevented from entering the bridge.
Your entire thesis in this article falls apart if the ship lost all power due to a mechanical issue which had nothing to do with a ‘storm’. And so I am asking you straight up Mr. Kubal, in the current context that no one else is offering this explanation, what do you know that apparently no-one else knows? And how do you substantiate your claim that a geomagnetic storm caused this ship to hit that bridge, against all other available evidence, and that this becomes credible evidence of God’s judgment?
I would like to see them rule out navigational gps hacking. I know it can be done to cars. Why not ships?? Lots of variables. Pray the truth will be told to us. If this is terrorism act we need to know it.
As for EMP from solar…I have heard of no other electronic issues with the solar flares, etc
No doubt this country needs to repent and turn back to Jesus and founding principles. Prayers for a not to transparent administration and their future in eternity. Based on evidence thus far I’d say their souls are in danger of fire and brimstone.
You bring up some interesting counter-points. I agree that some proof of the CME causing the ship’s issues would be helpful here to connect the two events. I think regardless of the CME and ship events being connected, God is warning us as a nation
It would be wonderful to put this in a PDF and send it to our leaders in our states and in our Capitol.
I’m truly grateful for the prayer points.
Thank you and God bless you.
Dear Father, I pray that this nation as a whole will turn its heart back to you. Give our leaders dreams and visitations and let each of them know that turning their backs on Israel is a travesty. Touch their hearts Lord and make them soft and pliable so they can receive the words you have for them. Put a desire in them to have a hunger for your infallible words. Thank you Father. I ask this in Jesus’ name, amen.
Amen and Amen
This is a stunning perspective. God is very watchful over Israel. Genesis 12:3 should be taken extremely seriously.
Father God, You are the mover and the shaker, you install righteous leaders, and remove leaders who are unjust and unwise, You see the abomination that is in the White House. You see how they are destroying this nation. Arise OH GOD and let your enemies be scattered, give our current leaders a heart for your people, the nation of Israel. If they refuse, then remove them from office quickly, and replace them with righteous leaders who love You, this nation, and are willing to rule, judge, and conquer wars for your kingdom. Father, You are our great miracle worker, promise keeper, and light in the darkness. I declare right now that the voices of those protesting against Israel, miraculously grow quiet, and your people are protected by your warring angels. In the mighty and powerful name of JESUS I pray, Amen!!
Absolutely! Right on. Those who honor God, He will honor. And the same goes for His nation of Israel. Wake up, America. Lord, please wake us up as a nation.
As we move into the celebration of the resurrection of Yeshua, Israel’s Messiah, we ask for mercy on the United Sates and her leaders. And in an inclusive way mercy for every man woman and child in Israel to come to repentance, insight knowledge of their true Messiah and Savior, bowing the knee and becoming joyful followers of Him. Let Your kindness lead to repentance and heal both lands. In Yeshua’s name we pray. Amen.
I know to listen when Bill Koenig speaks to the US about Israel. Thank you for this
If you are a Bible believing person who knows the Lord Jesus as your savior, you must spend time in intercessory prayer for our nation. Remember when woman “Esther“ stood before the king in intercessory for her people and because God led her there, they listened! And her people were spared.
Therefore, each one of us can go before the lawyer, and petition him to speak to our leaders, and soften their hearts towards Israel! this must be done if our nation is to survive
I pray for devine favor for our nation. That USA repent and come back to its roots as a God fearing nation. And I pray church leaders press in their message that we have a devine calling to be salt and light in humility and courage.
Oh Lord please raise up your leaders of this generation to make the bride ready for your coming.
Help them see that if the bride is ready all others derived national blessing follow.
In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
Read about Jesus’ preeminence over Moses and Elijah, in the 17th chapter of the book of Matthew.
I am praying
I pray Zechariah 12:10- 14
“And in that day I will pour out in the house if David the spirit of grace and supplication and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Then they will look on me who they have pierced. Yes they will mourn for Him as one mours for his only son and grieves for him as for a firstborn.” Lord we have not seen this scripture fulfilled. Israel does not know her Messiah yet. Jesus told the Jews who assumed they were descendants of Abraham – they were not Abraham’s father because they did not believe the words of Jesus. The Abrahamic Covenant is fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Galatians 3:13. It follows that until Israel comes to Christ they are not under the Abrahamic Covenant until it is fulfilled in Christ. John 8: 31-42.l Jesus declared, “He who is of God hears God’s words therefore you do not hear, because you are not God’s. Only those who do the works of Abraham are legitimate. Israel has unfinished business with God concerning Jesus. I pray for the salvation of Israel in their hour of trial- it is time for Israel to follow the Prince of Peace. Christ is their covering and no other. If their covering is being removed it is by the hand of God and no other. I stand for the peace of Jerusalem – her repentance is her Shalom. And likewise for America and all the nations who do not follow the Lamb of God. Lord Jesus King of all heaven and earth! King and Messiah of Israel!
My God, this is an enlightening prayer and testimony for all who read it. Thank you for the truth and your obvious, sincere empathy for Israel and your love of this country. It’s a shame this country, so blessed, doesn’t acknowledge the blessings we have been given by God. It shouldn’t take catastrophies to get our attention, but too often that’s the case. Believers are always looking above and praying for repentance of us all. May God get the attention of the rest of us so we don’t have to endure the wrath of God.
Sorry, I don’t pray for mercy, rather I pray for divine judgement and justice against those who are doing evil! They spit in the face of God’s mercy!
Absolutely! Recall when George Bush and Tony Blair proposed a two state solution in 2005, three hurricanes, including the most destructive ever, Katrina, came shooting across the Southern Atlantic like cannonballs to bring death and destruction to our Southeast Coast!!
Amen, God and His purposes will not be mocked. Gloria a Dios!
John McTernrys book ” As America has done to Israel” and “Eye to Eye, I think. Been going on for years. God is not mocked.
History has shown that when a people, nation, or empire turns against Israel and the Jewish people, they are left in the dustbin of history. The actions of this administration have put US in grave danger. We must pray, stand up, speak up, and urge this government to see the error if its ways. We must stand with Israel and the Jewish people around the world. We must also stand up to anti-semitism, anti-Israel and anti-Zionist words and actions.
I pray that Israel’s eyes be open to see their Messiah and say ” Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord”. Jesus the Prince of Peace of the Abrahamic Covenant of promise. Israel missed the day their visitation and when calling for Jesus to be crucified called for His blood to be upon them and their children. Until Israel repents for piercing the Son of God, they are not a sheep nation and are not fulling the Abrahamic Covenant yet.
Amen! Agree and can see God’s covering being lifted AT the hands of the US GOVERNMENT that has turned their backs completely away from ABBA Father.
History has shown that when a people, nation, or empire turns against Israel and the Jewish people, they are left in the dustbin of history. The actions of this administration have put US in grave danger. We must pray, stand up, speak up, and urge this government to see the error if its ways. We must stand with Israel and the Jewish people around the world. We must also stand up to anti-semitism, anti-Israel and anti-Zionist words and actions.
My Lord and My God,
Please continue to shield and protect Your people Israel as they continue to fight against their wicked enemies. Continue, Dear Lord, to send Your Heavenly Host to fight with and for Israel to protect them, their families and their entire land. Thank You, Jesus, and blessed be Your Name forever!
Amen!
Yes, yes, a thousand times Yes does this article resonate with me! It is disgraceful and dangerous that our country’s leaders are brazenly turning their backs on Israel. As Netanyahu has said so many times, they will move forward to defeat Hamas “with or without the United States”. But shame on us for abandoning them in their most desperate hour of need, when we should and could be fighting alongside them. May God grant repentant hearts from both His people and leaders of this nation. Strength, wisdom, and protection for Israel. May the Lord fight their battles and lead them to victory. May they turn to Him in this hour of desperation. May His strong right arm defend them to the glory of His name, Yeshua!
i prayed to the Lord to help me to see the worth in believing in our country. i was always angary and frustrated at our country. i could not bring myself to care. God brought me to IFA (threw my pastor)and this story. Of course the answer was obvious pray i should have known PRAY.
along with that, this article has given me a new direction and outlook .
God is good.
i have shared this article with my Husband .
I am so glad for this article.. so I can pass it on!
Thank you for this and may God continue to bless this once great nation founded on Him and His word! This is definitely a spiritual battle, and we must pray for our Lord’s will to be done! Maranatha!!
Get your facts from the Bible! Not from paperback books, newspaper articles, TV charlatans, fake news etc.
First of all that bridge collapse with its perfectly symetrical shearing looks very suspicious.
Whatever the case our crumbling country has nothing to do with proping up the United Nations creation of Israel in 1948 and everything to do with our institutionalizing and embracing of same sex marriage, sodomy and infanticide and our overall national immorality. You may have noticed it is the TEN COMMANDMENTS and not the ten suggestions???
Ancient Israel/ Judah continually and with seldom pause, went whoring after other gods and consequently were repeatedly slaughtered.
Yahweh’s covenant with ancient Israel was that they would be as many as the sands of the sea and stars of the sky! Modern day “Israel” is smaller than New Jersey! Converting to Judaism does not make someone an Israelite nor does residing in the modern day UN creation of Israel in 1948! Righteousness Exalts a Nation and Sin is a Reproach to any people.
This is a Yahweh inspired article! It resonates with my spirit as it clearly shows the evil plots to destroy America from within and especially our beloved anthems and traditions.
Our so called leaders are not representing us under God at all any more. It’s time for change.
I love the prayer and I prayed in agreement with it. I have read Bill Koenig’s book about what has happened to the U.S. when we go against Israel. Very good info. Thank you for the updates. It helps me to know how to pray.
With the ungodly leadership we have here in the US, it would be foolish to not consider the likelihood that Israel may have the same issue. Over half the population of Israel are not seriously practicing Jews. We cannot assume a direct relationship between Biblical Israel and the country in existence today. With our media’s propensity for lying, we cannot be sure of what is truly going on. So, I would propose praying for truth to surface, justice to be served, and innocents to be protected. We know those reflect the character of God. That is how we should pray. Father God, we hold up the land of Israel and ask for truth to surface. We ask for justice to be done. You see beyond the lies and deception in our media, and we know truth is part of your character. Bring your justice, but we understand that your justice may not look like ours until truth is completely revealed. And dear Lord, would you protect the innocent lives all over the middle east. We pray in Jesus our savior’s precious name. Amen.
I don’t know if this was a result of abandoning Israel but the timing makes me wonder. Lord, Bring the officials that have done this to repentance or judgement if repentance is refused in Jesus’s name. Amen.
I support Israel and the Bible makes it clear that the land of Israel is God’s special land and he has given it to the descendants of Jacob forever. I believe that God promised that Israel would come back to the land such as Ezekiel 36 and 37. I believe that Israel will be back in the land when Yeshua returns as in Zechariah 12. I believe that the land will be distributed among the tribes of Israel and resident aliens according to Ezekiel 47 and 48. I believe all that is wriiten in Romans 11 that the broken off olive tree branches will be grafted back in for they are beloved of God because of the patriarchs and the gifts and call of God is irrevocable.
For all those commentators that are pro Palestinian or pro Moslem, I don’t rejoice over the deaths of Palestinians not that my opinion is worth anything and I have no power or influence. I don’t hate Moslems but Islam teaches Moslems to hate me because I am a female kuffer(not a believer in Islam). When I read or hear about how women and Christians are treated in most Moslem majority countries, I feel anger. When I hear or read about Moslems wanting to impose Sharia(Moslem law) in this country including myself, I feel threatened. Don’t try to tell me that this is not true. I am well traveled and well read and know the truth.

“And turn from their wicked ways” is the key IMO.

Excellent word of warning to the United States of America! Everyone including our government leaders need to read this article in order to become aware that there are consequences of pressuring Israel to pursue a two state agenda.
Thank you for the info and the prayer guidance.
Thank you for the thoughtful article on the
Star-Spangled Banner. It brought tears to my eyes as I thought about all the ways we have shredded our beautiful symbol. I pray everyday that we will humble ourselves, cry out for mercy and seek God’s face for His forgiveness for our many sins! In the precious name of Jesus
Praise God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. He will never leave us or forsake us. Our nation is in peril. We pray for new leadership in our country who know the Lord and will keep us in the palm of His hand and Yehweh bless Israel, His possession. Amen!
when did CME hit and why just hit the ship and no others
including police, fire, security (US and local)???
Yes, I wondered that, too. How do we know it was due to CME, when there is no broader evidence of such an impact?
Why not? And then, again, maybe the enemy used the CME as a cover to practice their art of disabling specific parts of our electronic grid? Where but in a place that disables a vast part of our country? Why not geared to a specific ship? Dutch Sheets publicized a call for protecting our waterways a few months ago. There may be more damages to come. Please check it out.
The leaders in our nation (The United States) do not represent us (Christians) on most issues. Legal Americans are being ignored and disregarded while illegal aliens are becoming more and more the replacement for us in many respects. They may used to vote in democrats to office so they can continue they’re morally bankrupt, corrupt and lawless agendas. Almighty Father, please deliver our nation from the wicked agendas of these current government leaders that have encouraged abortions (Guttmacher Institute, there were 1,026,700 abortions in 2023.That’s the highest number in over a decade.), and have changed our position of standing with Israel in their times of trouble and many other lawless acts against our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Uphold us and keep us individuals safe during these times of a faltering government that is leading the nation more and more towards a totalitarian and godless government. You know that our hearts are against these things that displease you, but we are helpless without your grace and intervention at this time. Turn us and we shall be turned, and grant us repentance as a people and nation.
Proverbs 16:18-19
Proverbs 16:18-19 American Standard Version (ASV)
Pride goeth before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall. Better it is to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
Almighty God, Let Your Perfect Will be done this day, in Israel as well as in the United States and Texas!
We Praise and Worship YOU for the answers to our prayers, in Your Time, in Your Way, and according to Your Will.
Bless Your Holy Name Forever, Amen.
I resonate with what has recently happened. May we as a nation turn and repent quickly for our abandonment of Israel.
The God of Israel will prevail over those who come against His people Israel.
Amen and Glory To God
I stand with Israel. I speak Genesis 12.3 “I will bless those who bless you, Israel, and I will curse those who curse you, Israel. May your grace, mercy and comfort be over Your beloved. Turn the hearts of those who have turned away, back to God’s people, Israel.
May God give the strategies to Israel today, as He gave to Moses, Joshua , Samuel , David and those chosen by God. I pray for modern day prophets to stand up and speak the word of the Lord over Israel and the nations who are with Israel.
Our son and his classmates had to memorize the fourth verse of our National Anthem this year. In many ways, that verse is even more important than the first verse.
Thank you, IFA, for continuing to lead us in battle.prayers against the this evil.
Lord, have mercy on our nation. Forgive those in leadership who know not what they are doing. In Jesus Holy name we pray, Amen.
I will praise him in victory and defeat, God’s will be done.
Here we go again. The USA is being put under a curse because it is undercutting Israel. Perhaps it should be our leaders who receive that punishment since the majority of Americans support Israel. Biden, Blinken, Harris and the rest of that administration are seething with hatred toward “ the apple of God’s eye”. Not to mention other countries like Iran, Lebanon, Russia who are actively supplying war materials and training people to destroy them. Me thinks that the curse should fall on them first which doesn’t appear to be happening. Trump did more for Israel than any administration and yet bad things still happened to us. Covid comes to mind. Perhaps we need to rethink what is from the hand of God and what isn’t. I suspect when judgement comes from His hand there will be no need for any speculation.
On a side note, the President Joe Biden just proclaimed March the 31st as “ Transgender Visibility Day”. Isn’t that Resurrection Sunday ( Easter)??? Your prayers should be for TOTAL removal of this administration from leadership of our country. Nothing less will suffice.
This new proclamation of the evil administration is just another slap in the face to Christians who love Jesus and follow Him. The enemy has many workers, including this government! and he will stop at nothing to destroy God’s chosen people wherever they are in the world.! Father, I pray for all your children to continue to turn to You during these challenging times. We trust You and never give up!! We learn in the valleys to trust You. Thank you for even those times. I love you, my precious Lord and Savior, the Father and Holy Spirit….Almighty God!!! May Your will be done. Amen
The United States has Ana assignment to help Israel. It is a privilege with blessings and also consequences for failure.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Your words express what I first thought upon hearing the Francis Scott Key Bridge had collapsed. Was this connected to the United States sustaining from the U.N. resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza? I wondered and pondered. I re-read the lyrics; the land of the free and the home of the brave. But, were we?
Oh, Father, Help us to once again be the land of the free and the home of the brave. Help us to bravely and boldly stand with Israel as they fight against terrorism and the nations wanting their destruction. Help us to uphold Israel’s right to fly their flag across the land You promised them. When we do these things, let our star-spangled banner continue to soar across the United States. In God we trust.
I just prayed all the prayers requested that we should pray – In Jesus Name – Amen!
Thank you for your commentary on the current conditions in Israel and our nation. Sadly the hedge of protection has been removed from America by the peoples” own choices. So truly we will reap what we sow. The blatant hatred against followers of Jesus tells me that it is too late.
I hope and pray it is not too late, but it could be. God is the Just Judge, and the Only answer to all of our troubles. We as a nation, and His Church, have brought much of this on ourselves. It is also signs of the End Times as described in the Bible, so we all need to be living right and for Jesus. Lines are being drawn on a global and personal level, and persecution of Christ-followers and Jews is on rapid rise. I would say “Come, Lord Jesus, come!” but there are many around us who are still lost. We all need to ramp up our PRAYERS, myself included!
Awesome
This was my immediate first thought when I read about the bridge collapse. The significance is so obvious!
Thank you, Dave Kubal, for this amazing article, and direction how to pray for Israel, as well as for America. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He chose for His inheritance Isaiah 33:12. America has been the benefactor of so much grace and mercy, and I’m grateful to be enjoying the fruits of that mercy and grace. But now that we have turned our backs, first on God, and now on Israel, we have no right to expect it to continue. But I am beginning to understand the the depths of God’s love when I consider that God says, “Mercy over judgment.” I am praying for that with renewed faith!
Ephesians 6:12, For we wrestle Not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of the world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. ABBA, I take the authority You gave me over Molech, Baal, and Ishtar in Jesus powerful Name. I break their stronghold over our government, schools, legislators, president and vice president and governors. I speak the Name of Jesus. America opened the doors in the 50’s. Now Lord raise up an army of Intercessors, watchmen, praying warriors, to pray over our land. Awaken the church Lord. They have fallen asleep with religion, traditions of men etc. Teach us to fight against these demons instead of flesh. Show us the difference Lord. I Chronicles 7:14. We must seek You and most importantly Humble ourselves before You have to. In Jesus Name Amen
Praise God for this article and prayer. I will truly pray for us as a nation to repent and for us once again to place our trust in God.
How you people can call yourselves followers of Christ when you support the synagogue of Satan? While the people of Israel are not at fault in the massacre and occupation of Palestine, Israel’s leaders are. These leaders care not for Israel as a spiritual symbol but as a state in which to dominate others. Christ is cursing all U.S. government officials who continue to send bombs for the killing of innocent, God fearing people of Palestine. How you can call yourselves Christians and support the killing of any human beings, especially those who did nothing wrong but be born in the wrong plot of land. God’s will is not done through the shedding of innocent blood and you justify this slaughter because these people are brown and Muslims. And let’s not forget that Muslims at least revere Christ as a prophet while Jews reject any claim to divinity He has proclaimed. Do not be fooled into supporting the murder of your fellow gentiles or anyone for that matter.
What you don’t understand is that there are other factors at work here as in nations and principalities and eternal destinies of heaven and hell. As Christians we are to love what God loves and hate what God hates. That never includes people but it does include the satanic agendas that they promote and stand for. Israel did not start this war and they are defending themselves in response to being attacked preventing future attacks. If your family or your relatives were raped and pillaged would you not seek justice? God loves all people but the Jews have a special place in God’s heart and to deny that is to deny what Scripture clearly teaches. I pray that you will find it in your heart to love God’s people and trust in His sovereignty. Jesus is a Jew if you love Jesus you will love the Jewish people.
Speaking as a survivor of World War II, I KNOW that many innocent people are killed during a war–my own young Daddy was one of such people. But my country was not fighting the people of Germany, we were fighting Hitler and the Nazis. Similarly, the people of Israel are not fighting the people of Palestine, they are fighting the enemy located in Palestine who invaded Israel and murdered tiny babies in their cribs and raped and murdered innocent young women and set on fire the homes of elderly, infirm people burning them to death, and are holding innocent people hostage dozens of feet underground in tunnels and will not agree to return them to Israel. The Palestinian people are not to blame for the war, and neither are the Israel people–Hamas is to blame, as well as other terrorist groups in that region, but like in all wars, so many innocent, women, children, young men and old all suffer. Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem. Had Hamas not attacked Israel, you and I would not be having this conversation. May Almighty GOD bring this horrible war to an end and turn the hearts of the terrorists to the true GOD. In Jesus Name, Amen.
The problem is the Palestinians want every Jew dead. And they support Hamas. They have consistently refused a 2 state solution. Since you are so opposed to “genocide” you must be very concerned with the mass slaughter of October 7 and the fact that Hamas hides behind their own civilians, giving Israel the choice of either surrendering or carrying on with their self defense against a vicious, psychopathic enemy. I suspect you have no knowledge of the short and long term history of the Mideast but are rather a typically naive, easily brainwashed westerner who thinks he or she can dissect a basically tribal
conflict. And if this sort of empty thinking, if it continues, will force Israel to go nuclear and then we will all get directly involved.
As for muslims, take a look at what happened on Moscow. That is an expression of the heart of islam and don’t think “moderates” will stay moderate as that vile religion expands. They will all jump on board just like in Germany when Hitler took over. Suddenly, the vast majority became pro-Nazi. Fortunately their evil plans will be destroyed by the return of the real Jesus, not the watered down version they pay lip service to.
conflict.
Right on point, Mr. Johnson.
Truth be told.
Support Israel! Wouldn’t we defend our country from Hamas? God, pleas forgive our country’s actions against Israel! Please give wisdom to our leaders and courage to support Israel. God we need you to change hearts!
No kidding! Do you think any country (particularly a small one as Israel) wouldn’t try to defend themselves against their enemies who literally SURROUND them on all sides (other than the Mediterranean Sea)? They are fighting for their existence, as they have throughout their Biblical history!
My heart is broken as my country I have loved more than 70 years has turned it’s back on the God who has been our protection and guide is ignored,mocked, hated is no longer loved. Even church attendance is at an all time low & many churches no longer speak the truth as is the Word of God. I pray God has mercy & let’s one last revival move across our land to bring us to our knees & repent.
Your article touches my heart, and your prayers are the
prayers of my heart.
Amen!
Lord God forgive us our sins. Let your people called by your name seek your face, turn from our wicked ways. Let it begin with me. Then O Lord hear our prayers and forgive our sins and heal our land. We call on you God, because you will listen. He who watches over Israel never sleeps nor slumbers.
Often enough there is a historical correlation between precursor troubles and subsequent revivals the net of which is many are saved.which otherwise would not be saved. No.doubt this applies not just to Israel, and not just the USA but worldwide. Don’t think it’s right to passively say ,””All we can do is pray.” when praying is the one true most powerful thing we can do. From.another perspective one might ask,” What’s it going to take to get the church praying as in Acts 1:14.””Lord we ask In Jesus name – open wide the eyes of you watchmen .
What is it going to take for the Church to pray, you ask?
Obedience!
Simple obedience to the LORD JESUS CHRIST who many profess to love.
But how many of us as an expression of our love obey Christ’s Word?
HE said, “My House shall be called a House of Prayer” but how many churches these days even hold a mid-week prayer service?
Leonard Ravenhill’s spoke much on prayer; we would do well to study his teaching: e.g “The Prayer Meeting is Dead.”
America is declining fast under this very mediocre administration. Blinkin is no Kissinger and Austin is certainly no Marshall…and for that matter Biden is no Reagan. And remember in September this security advisor…His name escape me, Jake something or other, because he is so forgettable…said the
Mideast was the most quiet
he had ever seen it.
They have thrown in with the globalist agenda which means the nation is cursed and the warnings are coming fast and furious. Having sworn allegiance to the wrong side, their successes will all be short term. Unfortunately, their massive series of failures, especially their betrayal of Israel will take down this nation because it rains on the just and the unjust. Christians need to hold fast no matter what the cost and spread the Word as Holy Spirit leads. It’s all about eternity now.
Yes, unholy alliances have been made between our nation and other global entities. It is a demonic pact. Strongholds have taken root. BUT GOD … what will He do? What will His intervention be? And what will WE His people do? Oh Lord Almighty, God of heavenly armies, who intervenes in the affairs of men, help us, hear us, we plead for Your deliverance, Your Prophetic Word. Help us to keep our eyes on YOU, our hearts pure before you, and to walk in Your ways. Sovereign God, enter into the chaos and tribulation of this world; forgive us for our gross sins of negligence, disobedience, carelessness, worldliness, pride. Heal and restore Your people and our land. Help us to abandon the “sin that so easily besets us”, the “lust of the eye, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life”. You alone can save us. You alone can bring us out of this dark spiral. Let us repent and return to You with all of our hearts. In the name of Jesus, Son of the Living God I pray.
This article is correct. Jesus rules!! If the US does not support Israel, poor Israel, that is surrounded by their enemies, then God will punish our government. If God Punished Israel for their disobedience in the Old Testament, do you not think that God will not Punish US?!!
I am praying for God’s will to be done in our government. People should READ their Bible.
The US will not survive unless, the US. Repents and obey God. It is that simple. Don’t be deceive, God is NOT mocked, what a nation sews, it will reap. Praying 💖 for our nation to repent. Just as the eclipse, the sun, is going over 7 cities, in 7 States, of Nineveh, So our God is warning the US to REPENT. Also as in the Bible of Nineveh.
May The Holy Spirit awake the US. And move mightily among our Government, our people, so that the US will live, move, have our being in Jesus Christ. No one can live without Jesus.
We cry out to Jesus, for God’s will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven, in Jesus’s name Amen 🙏 🙌 ✨️
I prayed and continue to ask that God raise up a praying church in this time of crisis.
We are certainly living in the End Times. It is entirely possible that what happened in Baltimore to be as a result of our “leaders”, and their narcissistic, indifferent attitude toward what is happening in Israel. Lord Jesus, in spite of our leaders’ selfish attitudes in these End Tmes, by Your mercy and love, we trust that you will make a way for Israel to not only survive, but to thrive. Thank you, Jesus.
Standing in agreement
Praying for the Lord’s protection for Israel.
I stand with Israel and support the war against terrorism everywhere
This is exactly what I thought was going on when the bridge collapsed. I did not know about all that was going on with the sun! Now it makes sense even in the natural! Thank you for this revelation.
FATHER, I PRAY THAT YOU SEND THE HOLY SPIRIT AND SAINT MICHAEL AND ALL OF HIS ANGELS TO CLEANSE THE EVIL FROM OUR GOVERNMENT AND THIS LAND. LOVE AND PRAYERS FOR ALL. 🙏🙏🙏
Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Revelation 3:9
I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Revelation 2:9
Israeli Genetic researchers Dr. Ariella Oppenheim (2001) and Dr. Eran Elhaik (2012) stated modern Israelis are not Jews, but Khazars converted to Judaism in the 8th century.
Writing for the Israeli newspaper “Haaretz” in 2012, Ofer Aderet Wrote:
“The Khazars converted to Judaism in the eighth century and their descendants are the European or Ashkenazi Jews who live today in Israel in the diaspora. The commonly accepted narrative consider the Jews to be descended from the residents of the kingdom of Judah, who were exiled and returned to their native land the modern day state of Israel only after thousands of years of exile. In contrast, this new study (Dr. Elhaik’s published research in 2012) supports the theory that the Jews are descendants from different peoples who converted to Judaism, the dominant element of the genetic makeup is Khazar.”
Are you aware that Ashkenazi Jews are a minority in Israel? Mizrahi and Sephardic Jews that were forced to flee from Moslem majority countries in 1948 or later and their descendants have a higher proportion of the Jewish population in Israel. There are Ethiopian Jews in Israel too.
There is a book published in 2008 by John P Teman called, “As America Has Done to Israel”. Documents events through our government’s denials toward Israel catastrophes which have occupied in the US and how quickly they occurred.
We praise your name Jehovah Nissi for you are the Lord our Banner. May all see the goodness of you mercy upon us and our nation. May we humble ourselves before you and repent of turning against your will and plan. May we sound your warning cries that all May hear and know that your judgement is upon us. I ask you to hear in Jesus’s name. Amen
I agree with Mr. Kubal in what he has shared. Our nation & it’s “false leadership” need to repent & remain in an attitude of repentance & sorrow for their abysmal decisions.
But there is something else here we cannot get away from or forget. We are witnessing what happens when people who want leadership roles… but were complicit & participated in the theft of an election. The last election should never have been certified (2020 or 22) because of the election theft involved. People say it’s over & done – no, the consequences & fallout of something that big & that criminal have a domino effect. We have people, in office, making decisions….that are the result of the criminal acts of what they agreed to participate in. My whole point is confusion, deception, deceiving, etc. reigns in their heart & minds because the foundation of what they achieved was “rotten” to begin with. The fruit of what they produced was spoiled & putrid from day 1. So we are not surprised at the horrible results due to the decisions they are making.
Like all of you, I will continue to pray for them to wake up….for our nation to wake up. I pray they will be broken & that some of them will actually find the road to honesty & integrity – through brokenness. And I most certainly pray for their removal from their positions & influence.
Abba Father thank you for your mercy and grace. We pray for our elected officials that you will draw them to your will for the country of Israel, your people and repent for their actions toward Israel. Give us strength for what lies ahead. Thank you for sending your son to suffer
and die so that we might trust him as
Savior and Lord, repent of our sins and follow your will for us.
Savior and Lord, repent of our sins and turn toward your will for us.
Amen. I pray for Israel. I pray for the elected officials of the USA. Let us NOT turn our backs on Israel. I STAND WITH ISRAEL!!
Israel is apartheid, they are committing great atrocities on innocent people.
And what happened on October 7? Kindness? What happened on that day was horrific murder of innocent people by evil people. I believe you are seriously misinformed. You are entitled to your opinion, but you have no basis for it. Israel of all countries has gone above and beyond to warn people before they go against the enemy. But I don’t expect to persuade you and neither can you persuade me.
What exactly is the definition of ‘apartheid?’ Does that include having different nationalities in, & participating on the councils? Does that include voting rights for them? Does it include supplying free-gratis electricity across the so-called border to free-loading group of people, who deliberately destroyed the life-producing business that were left intact for them? Does it also include the freedom of work opportunities, the jobs, being fully employed? Perhaps ‘apartheid’ is better described as the ongoing attitude of those who call themselves Palestinians? Inquire of Egypt, of Jordan…they are much better informed than any who live an ocean away. Afterall, they have been neighbors since….the Palestinians invented themselves.
Praying for uncorrectable officials (elected and appointed like Biden and his cabinet) is a prayer in vain. I pray for change, and that won’t happen until the earliest on 20 Jan 2025.
Yes, We do pray for the protection of Israel and USA!!! Please, have our leaders understand, praise, worship You!!! We pray in Jesus’s name!!! AMEN and AMEN!!!
Also, forgive us, Lord!!!
Thank you Father for your Mercy and forgive us. Let us celebrate your Divine Mercy. Divine Mercy Sunday Sunday after Easter
I’m sorry but America is under judgment for far more serious sins than poor foreign policy. Nearly 70 million Abortions (Moloch worship) homosexual “Marriage” (Venus and Sodom) and the largest purveyor of Child Trafficking and Pornography on Earth (Venus again) mitigate against God “blessing America” despite protestations from the remnant of Christians within the Republican Party. The Dollar is worthless which is why my Zero Turn Lawnmower cost twice what my late Father paid for his Rambler in 1970. The EM Storm emission may have had something to do with the Boat hitting the Bridge but the way in which DEI has been thrust upon the nation with great help from the Military Industrial Complex, is likely to prove more of the underlying cause. If God were to be just, the Juan de Fuca Fault would break and California would be under water. American Churches have cowered to the LGBTQ Lobbyists and THAT dear friends is the problem. A Bridge designed in the 1970s to cope with 1970 Ships with 1970 Cargoes plus all of the above are more the causes than ill thought out foreign policy. Seven million illegal migrants and a hollow Tailor’s Dummy in the WH led by who knows what “Principalities and Powers” scream REPENT! And unless and until the Nation DOES the signs and judgments will increase in both frequency and intensity. Israel is not the driver in this case but then I am an Amillennial and thus probably in a minority.
Amen brother. Reminded of Psalm 106:37-41 “They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to false gods. They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood. They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves. Therefore the Lord was angry with his people and abhorred his inheritance. He gave them into the hands of the nations, and their foes ruled over them.” Though some will insist this only applies to the nation of Israel, one can easily see that open border, etc as signs these scriptures apply to our nation as well. May we become better watchmen on the wall in this late hour of history…
Peter, you are absolutely correct.
Israel may not be the driver, but it is definitely a big part of the picture, along with all that you described here, and also the facts that ‘CN’ described regarding having an illegitimate ‘regime’ in the White House. “You’ll know a tree by its fruit.” Evil is as evil does.
I received almost same thing from the Lord Friday morning. We did not block resolution against Israel, now our main port closest to DC is blocked. The bridge is one of travel routes used to access the capital is gone. I had no real familiarity with the region so got my Atlas and looked it up and had to check timeliness on the events. We MUST pray for all of our Leaders as this is a direction America cannot afford to go.
Dear Lord Jesus, please heal Israel, the most sacred place on earth. I pray every day for the safety of Israel.
Your connection of a bad event with a bad political policy or pronouncement regarding the current nation of Israel is precarious – for more than one reason. Is Israel today (basically Jewish, atheist, socialist) somehow a good, truly God-fearing Christian nation that deserves our full and unqualified support – in your opinion? According to the New Testament, Israel is not the true Israel. God has not resumed direct dealings with her (as He will in the Tribulation & the Millennium). Could it not be that God has planned (long before Biden got “elected”) many isolated disasters that are NOT related to any one person’s (or one Administration’s acts or speeches)? I know it’s a human temptation to try to connect things, but it’s gets risky / unwise when you go beyond what’s clear in Scripture.
God has NEVER abandoned Israel and WILL NEVER. Just look at the miracles that took place since her regathering in 1948. What you are suggesting is “Replacement Theology”. Jesus Christ: The same today, yesterday and forever.
Jesus fulfilled the law and only those who believe in Him are under God’s grace. Call it “Replacement Theology” if you prefer. See scripture included to Randy’s response.
Might I add, that God no longer condemns those He loves, but He disciplines. John 3:18.
God HAS made Israel a great nation through His Son, Jesus. Who are those who believe in Him! Gal 3:16
And those who continue to be under the works of the law will be cursed. Those under Christ’s work are under grace. Gal 3:8-14
God has also proclaimed I will bless those who bless Israel and curse those whom curse her!!!
Obviously you have never read Genesis or Revelation which says 1/3 of the jews during the trib will be saved. No God is not done with Israel or the jewish people.
Stop making mountains out of molehills and face facts. China is working from the inside just like they said they would and our government is asleep, lazy, and doesn’t seem to care about the USA. AND YES, Israel does deserve our support if we want favor from God. He will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel. Hear that Biden!!!!!
Amen it is confirmation of what the Lord has shown me !! Praying interceding and believing for Gods mercy on us this nation the USA and its awakening to the truth!! God is sovereign and will not be mocked! His wrath is as real as his love and mercy!! Praying for mercy mercy mercy in and on our land and people!! What we have sown we shall reap- real consequences! God will forgive but HE is holy and demands truth with righteousness and justice!! Gid bless you at ifa and every true Intercessor . We call forth the spirit of truth and righteousness with Justice and We fully place our trust in you alone almighty God YAWEH Elohim!! please forgive us for allowing these things to come from this nation ; your nation Oh God!! In Jesus name Amen!! We bless Israel and pray for her land and people protection strength wisdom discernment understanding and great courage!! Strategies from heaven and angelic help with divine intervention!!
Amen and Amen.
We pray for the Nation , which has been founded on your biblical principles.
Lord this administration which is a fraud has to be removed.
Righteous people have to be elected, give us a chance Lord.
Their is so much ignorance and mocking at your word when u have said:
Cursed is the Nation that curses Israel and blessed is the Nation that blesses Israel.
We stand in your Word for a supernatural intervention and repentance.
Glory be to The Lord of Lords who never changes!
Aleluya we praise you!
Amen
Amen and Amen
Please let us remember the people who carry Gods name and are the Apple of His eye are His children born of His Spirit – the blessing of Abraham was for those who are of Faith – otherwise God would have been a very cruel Father to ask Jesus to give His life if He already had a ‘special’ people by physical birth – there is no longer Jew nor Gentile but One NEW man thanks to Jesus! We care for Israel as we would for ANY other nation, but Jesus is the Saviour of the WORLD – every blessing of God has to be seen IN Jesus. Personally I think the Father is shaking a Christian doctrine, which by the way was NOT taught by Jesus nor the early church/disciples…only came into our churches a couple of years ago – research it. But I will continue to pray for Israel and Palestine so that ALL may come to know peace and Jesus the saviour of the world….for God so loved the WORLD that he gave His only son, so WHOEVER believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Very nice, Jacqui.
You should address immigration and election integrity only counting American citizens.
Forgive us Father for not standing with Israel.
Excellent article!
We must pray His Word in behalf of our beloved Nation. Believe and speak fir God to act, and HE WILL!
I agree that we must always defend Israel! However there is no proof that the geomagnetic storm is what caused the ships navigation to fail. It may have been a cyber attack by a terrorist group or nation.
God allowed it.
We need to return to Our Loving Creator.
Excellent presentation.
Thank you.
Joel 3
For in those days and at that time, when I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat; and I will enter into judgment with them there, on account of My people, My heritage, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided My land.
Daniel 9
We have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments…. We have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in His laws…O my God incline Your ear and hear…we do not present our supplications before You because of our great righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. O Lord hear, O Lord forgive.
Lord, convict and convince our leaders of their sin in manipulating Israel in many ways, most especially to divide Your land. If they are unable or unwilling to be convinced, Lord, replace them with those who will not oppose Your plan for Your people, Your nation, and Your land. Lord, have mercy in the midst of Your righteous judgments. Lord, may we, Your church, discern the times and stand in the gap. You say the return of the Jews to Your/their land is for Your Holy name’s sake. Ezekiel 36. May you be glorified in this even as the nations attempt to divide the land You have covenanted to Your people to inhabit.
LORD!
Save us! Save Your people!
How. Long will we continue to reject You and Your people, Israel, Your Land, Your city, Jerusalem?
SAVE US, O LORD!
I was overcome with grief and weeping yesterday for America’s trestment of Israel! I asked our Lord to forgive us, and to remove all unrighteous leaders from our government, all 3 branches. We need leaders who will fall on their faces in humility and repentance, and with fear of the Lord! Only then, in His Great Mercy, will He heal our land!
Please. Please. PLEASE!! Can we PLEASE stop calling people in our government “our leaders?” They are NOT “our leaders”!! They are our REPRESENTATIVES. They work for US!! WE pay their salaries!! WE pay for all their benefits!! This is a large part of our problem in the US. They call themselves “our leaders,” and we agree with them!! WE are the employers! They are supposed to work FOR US, NOT the other way around!! This mindset has made us slaves to them!! Rise up in who we are, Who we belong to!!
Lord, PLEASE help us BREAK this slave mentality!!
Amen, we are a consitutional republic, NOT a demacracy. Those people were meant to be civil servants of we the people Thee government. It is apparent not many know the Bible or constitution.
God will not be mocked.. Psalm 68:1-2 – Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God. May the hearts of our leaders repent and turn back to you, oh Lord Most High. May your Love cover a multitude of our sins.
Amen. I prayed the listed words under “issues for Intercession”.
Thank you greatly for this article and its prayer plus the leadership for us to continue to pray and rejoice God is with us.
Father God, open the eyes of the leaders in this country. Show them this is not about Republican or Democrat. Open their eyes to see the Bible for what it is and believe and know this is a Spiritual battle.
Father, I stand in awe of you. You alone are worthy to be praised and I adore and worship you. I thank you for the sacrifice of your son for such as us. At this time when we celebrate his resurrection from the grave conquering the devil and releasing us from the power of sin once we accept him, I fall to my knees with a heart extremely full of gratefulness for your mercy, grace, LOVE and sacrifice. It gives me a renewed hope for those of us who love and know you that no matter what — YOU alone are in control and on the throne. I pray that America would come to her senses and that if they are not going to help Israel (as we definitely should) that at least you will silence the fools and keep them from hindering what is your will for Israel. I pray that Israel will also realize, as they have had to in the past, that they are a stiff necked people and that they can and will be victorious as they turn their focus back to you. You WILL drive hamas and hezbollah from before them as you have others that were against them in the past. I pray for those that are currently ruling over America that they would see the folly of their ways and repent to you while they still have time. I ask father that every true Christian follower of yours, would pray without ceasing for YOUR WILL to be done and that we would be strong and courageous as was your Son in praying for your Will.
In the name of Jesus, amen!
I am devastated by our government’s decisions and actions. It seems our political leaders are Not serving our Lord, and only serve themselves. May the Lord have mercy on us.
Biden and everyone in his cabinet are heathen. Include Biden’s worthless press secretary. All of them are commercial bearers of false witness (liars), salaries paid by taxpayers.
AMEN!!!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Praying!
When I saw the bridge collapse online and the name of it, I suspected this was a prophetic sign for us. Thank you for sharing.
Praise the Lord for showing us connections that I never saw before. Thank you for the prayer challenges
Excellent article. (You should remove the apostrophe in the phrase “…when we and our leaders sin” ).
So much is coming out now about the Hamas attack, which was planned because Hamas knows that Israel has perfect blemish-free red heifers to be sacrificed on the altar of the NEW temple, which should be built on the Temple Mount, where the Al Aqsa mosque currently stands. Hamas knows the prophecy, and so should all Christians. I read yesterday that the Jews have already constructed the altar for the new temple. Israel must NOT give up anything to Hamas. God’s plan for the End Times is unfolding almost daily.
Lord hear us as we cry out to you. We lean upon the Rock of ages for your intervention with our leaders as Abigail intervened with David. We know we have sinned and we ask for your forgiveness. Let the fear of the Lord come upon on leaders and do not let them rest until your will is done. I agree with my brothers and sisters in Christ that righteousness be restored, and US policy be aligned to your Will and purposes in the Land of Israel. In Yeshua’s name we pray, Amen.
“God will remove His hand of protection, not causing disaster and destruction, but not stopping it, as we step out from under His protection by violating His covenants and His will. It is His mercy that allows us to respond in repentance.”
Forgive us, precious Lord, for we know not what we do. May we turn away from our transgressions, and seek You in Your word, so that our judgements are sound and are rooted in Your wisdom and not that of our own. Lord… ultimately, we know that thy will will be done on heaven and on earth, but give us the strength to stand with Israel as Your word commands, and stand for Your truth in all things. In these things and much, much more that we pray. Amen.
Yes, all nations are being beckoned to give an accounting for dividing up the covenant land, and for anti-Semitism. Joel 3:2 “I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for My people and for My heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.” God, open the eyes of America’s leaders, give discernment and grant the fear of the Lord to see the high price of opposing Your plans.
Heavenly Father, we pray that the leaders of this country will repent their sin of denouncing your chosen people and will again stand with Isreal.
Amen
Father God Almighty, we have sinned and deserve judgement, but You are righteous altogether. Will You have mercy on Your people and give us courage and boldness to live righteously for Your Great Namesake? Cause us to obey You Father! Don’t let these wicked people mock us and You. Let us see Your glory rise to throw off this wickedness from our nation. We are literally called by Your Name. Give us strategy to take our nation back for Your glory. We cry out to You to protect Israel, the apple of Your eye. Let them feel Your presence and see Great Deliverance today!
We must stand courageously with Israel. This is a fight for their very existence as a nation again evil demonic forces.
