We received this message from an IFA intercessor that we had to share with you!
Dave, While every prayer call is anointed and timely, today you knocked it out of the park!! Thankfully I haven’t been anxious and discouraged, but what you conveyed in the prayer and the guest and ministering to us elevated me in many ways I didn’t know I needed. Only God could have taken “bad news” and evil actions and turned them into faith and power and hope. You conveyed that and let Him work through you. I’m sure demons are fleeing even now. Thank you for who you are and how you serve America and the Kingdom. That praise and appreciation go to all IFA staff as well.

I just believe wholeheartedly in the power of prayer and corporate body of Christ praying. We are joining many prayer warriors and believe Gods promises. In Jesus name we will keep trusting and believing. Amen
My dear KB
Your recieving and the Lord giving you a song of His love inspires me. Yes the Lord is our Song in all times even in trouble. I can attest to that. He is so precious and so very powerful in His peace loving ways. Christ is our Peace also. I pray many will read and allow His song and peace to enter their hearts for we are in troubling times but the Lord is coming back for a spotles Bride, His church and may we all be found by Him clean and white free from sin. S we keep praying and encouaging one another in the Lord and may many be saved today while it is yet day for the night comes and no man can be saved.
FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST….GOD HAS A PLAN!
Sometimes I pray for what I think needs to be done and I fall into the trap of preconceived assumptions of how God is going to act by being too specific in my prayers. God is teaching all of us this year in particular and what I am being called to share is that we must OPEN OUR PRAYERS TO GOD’S WILL BEING DONE. God has always met my prayers through his ways of accomplishing His plans, not mine. God whatever you can do in this time of darkness and multiple issues we support in prayer and believe that all will be accomplished not by your might or strength but by your SPIRIT.
How do you sign into the prayer time to join group? Is it a very simple process? Do you meet daily? If someone could possibly do an email chat text me directly at [email protected]. thank you very much.
In Jesus Name, I take authority over the enemy! The weapons of our warfare are NOt carnal but mighty through the Holy Spirit! The enemy MUST flee in Jesus Name! Amen.
For over 100 years in America, and since Nimrod & Babylon- the forces of darkness have sought a One World Governance totalitarian system. The fallen ones have a military agenda to destroy America and remove our inalienable rights, our 2nd Amendment, and specifically to ‘deactivate’ Biblical Christianity. ‘Know ye not’ that the salt & light that is resident in Christians by the Holy Spirit is the only antidote to the corruption that is worldwide and festering on our shores?
We MUST not be ignorant of satan’s devices; yet we truly are MORE than Conquerors through Him who loves us [Romans 8- entire]. Use the Living Word of YHVH GOD as our weapons of warfare on our knees! Realize that the enemy never sleeps… and the hour is late! https://zionsgate.wordpress.com/2015/10/31/the-new-age-movement-the-fallen-serpents-old-lie/

Wow! Hoping many see & read this! Thank you so much! Shalom
This is a wonderful praise report. I too am encouraged with Dave’s admonitions and faith. Kris and Dave are a powerful team. “One can chase a thousand, but two can chase 10,000. Keep in step with the Spirit.
Shalom
I had the same experience. The way I know it was God is that it is still with me. Not just a feeling or a good thought. I was awakened with joy and hope.
Good word Sandra!
“Amen!
“Praise and glory, wisdom and thanks,
honor and power and strength
belong to our God forever and ever!
“Amen!”
All praise should go the God the Father alone and only to Him . Yet appreciation can go to those who serve 😊👍💜💕
Go to God the Father !
Thank you for your timely prayers that are meaningful and so we’ll written for a time such as ours. Your many prayer subjects are so incredibly to the point and cover matters of significance. Thank you for your tireless faithful energy. I really liked how to pray for wicked as you wrote them.
Thank God that these demons ARE fleeing now! This is an encouraging word. Let’s keep up our intercessory prayers. We need to especially be praying for revival, and that it starts in Washington D.C.. I also pray that all the politicians, especially the Dem leaders- Biden , Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Jerry Nader- have Damascus Road experiences. This is the ONLY way that the evil will indeed turn for good in our government.
If that doesn’t do it
Let their sleep be disturbed and body-less hand appear before them

In Jesus name ✨💖
Whatever it takes, the Lord is able. Nothing is too difficult for Him. Our trust needs to be in Him, not in what we see with our natural eyes.
In Jesus Mighty Name we pray!
Trust & pray – pray & trust!!! Let our enemies scatter in utter chaos and confusion the closer we lean into God, His Word and declare His Truths & Protection.
Consider our enemies, for they are many; and they hate us w/cruel hatred. Keep our souls & deliver us; let us not be ashamed – for we put our trust in YOU! Let integrity & uprightness preserve us, for we wait for YOU! Redeem the USA, O God – out of all our troubles!
Praying Psalm 25:19-22 this 25th day of February 🙂
Thank you IFA for all you do!!!
I am sorry that I did not participate in the last prayer session. I will pray on March 5. 🙏
Find Rest oh my soul in God alone. My hope comes from HIM. HE alone is my Rock and my salvation , He is my fortress I will not be shaken. Psalm 62:5-6
Jim and all others that commented praise be to GOD, the precious words of encouragement and love of JESUS to one another honors HIM above all and the evil that surrounds us cowers at the NAME of JESUS! May we continue to encourage one another with HIS word and Love 💕
We are in this together to bear one anothers burdens and lift each other up through loving deeply.
JESUS. JESUS. JESUS
Thank you KB, I could not have said it better. Our god is our Rock who we cling to, He is our Mighty fortress and we shall never be moved as we trust in Him alone. He has made a way in and thru all this and as we trust in His Word, He will deliver us. His Word is the place of refuge. It is amazing as we go thru our trials,; and dig deep into the Word and let it wash us and speak volumes to us: we rise above our issues and look for others to help; for there are MANY who are in need at this very moment; but we pray God send His messengers of helps of every kind and we know if we ask He will. Everyone needs encouraging words and may we all rise to that occasion for God is at work whether we see it or not. His Word never returns void but accomplishes all He intends it to. I’ve never seen the righteous forsaken nor begging for bread. We don’t have to beg for the BREAD of God, He gives freely as we call upon Him . He satisfies every longing heart. Oh, how He loves us.
Praise be to GOD. Such powerful words you share Virginia, thank you. After I read your comment at the end of it I immediately started singing in my head : oh how He loves you and me, oh how HE loves you and me, HE gave His life what more could HE give? Oh how HE loves you oh how HE loves me oh how HE loves you and me….. and everyone reading these prayers and commenting and clicking amen. HE loves us everyone! We can rest in that promise to the very depth of our souls.
Thank you IFA for your dedication to this prayer ministry and what you are doing to further God’s Kingdom! I have really been encouraged by this work.
I did not see any message here from the intercessor on saying “I’m sure demons are fleeing even now” ? when clicked on the watch link, the topic was not this……..?
Thanks for help as would love to read why he or she said this!!!
I didn’t see that-did I miss it?
I just hold on to the word and I know God is in control and to truth Him.
But it’s very hard to see this nation going fast into the devil’s plan in Washington.
It could make you sick if you let it. God we need your help in this soon.
Hi IFA Family,
I couldn’t sleep again last night and when that happens I am usually moved to pray for our country and children. However, I have to say I couldn’t. I am so discouraged at not seeing any results from all the prayers and crying out we have done. The only real victory I saw was that Trump did not get impeached in an unconstitutional trial.
I’m sorry to put this on here but I have been going for years now and especially in the last 6-8 months of steadfastness but see no victories.
I know God wins and Jesus will come save the day but all I see is that darkness and the enemy keeps winning and that soon this darkness will cover our entire land and people.
I now am focusing my prayer on God giving me the strength to stand when my time comes to stand and to spare my 8-year old from the coming evil.
Does anyone else feel this way?
Praise Jesus always
Jim
I don’t but have and could if I surrendered to the kingdom of darkness. I pray that God will strengthen you, beloved, Jim in the joy of His Calling. I remember many years ago going through the very darkest time in my life and at the very end of my rope…finally praying and telling Jesus, please don’t let go of me Lord, even though I may let go of You…just please don’t let go of me. It just brings a deep swell in me even now because His Holy Spirit in me remembers that prayer too. My eyes are welling over from thinking of His beautiful everlasting mercy love and grace. He is with you and I know that His Grace will be sufficient for you if you ever have to make such a stand as your mind is conjuring up. And I know that The Lord in You will help You STAND!! Don’t ever believe that just because you are weary that you will be conquered for the Greater One who lives inside of you has indeed conquered the grave, took back hell’s dominion and will never leave you defenseless. You will never be alone and the gates of hell WILL NOT PREVAIL against you. He will come through for you. He forgives us for being human and shows Himself strong in our weaknesses. May His Peace fill you as you just turn your attention completely to Him for His tender care. He is more impressed by those who will lean on Him than He ever is by those who like Peter say, ok Jesus…You and me…we got this…this is the time to see His strength in our weaknesses. He’s got you and He’s got all that concerns you. Have more faith in Him than in those things you see. I am sorry this is long…just wanted to encourage you as I have been encouraged. Blessings are perpetually upon you as HIS BE-LOVED CHILD.
4Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
5Let your [b]gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.
6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Meditate on These Things
8Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. 9The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.
Beautiful, heartfelt, timely word of encouragement to my brother and to us all! Thank you.
InHim, thank you for replying to Jim with such a caring and hopeful message. While I was thinking about what to say to him, you already knew the right words. May Jim’s life and all of us be blessed by coming to this prayer site often to pray and receive an encouraging word.
Yes, I concur.
Yet we know what to do. Praise the Lord and stay in the Word. Eyes locked on Jesus.
And obey. Is it enough?
Perhaps not in the flesh but we walk according to the Spirit. We are in the battle and we are not alone.
These are the words I speak to myself. The Lord’s Blessings upon you and your household.
I understand it is easier to resign from the fight and pray for your 8-yr old to be spared. I encourage you to take the thoughts captive that our timeline dictates God’s faithfulness. I have been praying & waiting years to see His promises to me not yet seen to me.
We will see the fulfillment if we don’t quit. “You will reap the harvest if you faint not.”
You are not alone. Your words could have just as easily come out of my mouth.
All I can think of are the words of Lamentations 3. The writer (Jeremiah?) feels cut off from God. His prayers seem to be smacking against a wall God built up. He sounds totally discouraged. However, like David, he alters course and says that God is faithful and that He rewards those who diligently seek Him.
It seems that this is not the first time God’s people have felt cut off. It might be a time of discipline or refinement, or maybe a time to simply reveal the garbage in the American church. Whatever it is — and this is REALLY hard for me to do, since my national and personal prayers over the past 12 years seem to have been disappearing into the thinness of space — we are to keep seeking and petitioning God.
These great men of God did not give up. As difficult as this is, maybe we need to follow their example?
“Whatever it is — and this is REALLY hard for me to do, since my national and personal prayers over the past 12 years seem to have been disappearing into the thinness of space — we are to keep seeking and petitioning God.”
Only “seem to have been”..in Revelation 5, we read “in heaven’s throne room, when the Lamb takes the scroll of God’s judgment into His own hand, “the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fall down before the Lamb. Each one has a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people…” You my friend have been adding to those beautiful golden bowls. I pray God’s blessing, the power of the Holy Spirit, and I pray in thanks to Jesus Christ, that your faith and trust will keep you following these great men of God…of whom you are counted. Amen
Goodness. You’re a sweet lady to say such a thing. But, you know what? 14 people compared me to Herod a week ago here.
Jim please read Psalm 37! I’m not good with words but a friend shared this Psalm with me years ago…I have read it a lot lately and am encouraged! God is at work…He never stops… God bless you and keep you…
Dear Jim,
I too had become disappointed. I have felt every range of emotion from grief and broken heartedness to anger.
BUT! I don’t believe this is over yet! I DO NOT BELIEVE the enemy will have the last say over your 8 year old child, nor my 7 year old granddaughter!
Theres something in me that rises up like a fierce warrior and refuses to let this evil agenda win.
I believe God is allowing the exposures of these evils to fully come to the surface to be dealt with. Otherwise, all of the ‘hidden’ would just continue on.
Yes we may face some persecution but that’s when the grapes of the wine press turn into Wine! That’s when what we’re truly made of comes out!
Look out devil, you’re about to see the Church in all its Glory!!!
Brutha, I hope you’re right. The Left does seem to be overplaying its hand. I mean, the gloves are off. I do hope there’s a reason for this and that it means their destruction.
I mean, ‘sista’. 🙂 Sorry!
Jim, I am thankful for your response… authentic truth. I have prayed for years that the Lord would shake loose those things keeping us separated from Him. I believe He is doing this! I believe He used President Trump to expose and how that man was hammered for it. He stood throughout, thanks be to God! I believe the Lord will use President Biden to do the same. But I believe in these next years, many (unlikely) in leadership will counter this administration’s wickedness. This is my belief, encapsulated, and my ongoing prayer. I thought of dry bones when I read your comment and through the other comments. Then I thought, “I was the WOST of offenders, I was wicked.”
“Son of man, can these bones live?…Prophesy concerning these bones and say to them: Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Lord God says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will live. I will put tendons on you, make flesh grow on you, and cover you with skin. I will put breath in you so that you come to life. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”
He did this for me! I know He is Yahweh, Creator of Heaven and Earth, My Redeemer, my Father. He is in the saving business and loves your little daughter as His own! I hope you stay in HIS GRIP and remember our Father doesn’t sleep, so you can rest. Shalom, shalom to you, your daughter, all those you love.
Adonai is king; let the peoples tremble.
He sits enthroned on the k’ruvim; let the earth SHAKE!
Adonai is great in Tziyon;
He is high above all the peoples.
Let them praise Your Great and Fearsome Name (He is holy)
Psalm 99:1-3 Complete Jewish Bible
Sister Susan,
Your response moved me to tears. Thank you for your encouragement and gentleness. I have so many amazing responses to reply to but I wanted to let you know once I read yours. This is because you said my “daughter” and I felt the Spirit of the Lord move throughout my whole body and brought me down to brittle, humble praise because I did NOT say that my little one was a girl in my message. So the Spirit reassured me, lifted me up and encouraged me to get back up on my feet, stand good soldier and continue this fight. He is not done yet! He is moving and speaking through many now. And made me know this through your reply saying I have a daughter. Oh Susan, she is the most amazing and beautiful creation. She accepted Jesus as her Savior when she was four! And she has been the most kind, gentle and giving (she even tithes now and wants to always give things to others) child I have ever seen. She is wise, oh so wise! Way wiser than I ever was. And she has seen angels and Jesus has spoken to her twice! I have to always remind myself that much of this is about her. There is something special about her and much of what happens in my life is what God is doing with her. He is building a mighty one with her — she prays and loves like I’ve never seen another child do. This is one main reason (among some others) why I feel so deeply and care so passionately about what is happening.
What a testimony to the love of Jesus through this site of believers. I pray along with you guys through the articles everyday and when I was discouraged and down I was able to be honest about it and receive the word I needed.
Thank you Susan and to everyone who reached back out to me to help.
What a blessing! God bless you, your families, your children and their children; our country, world and everyone standing firm with Jesus throughout the world
Jesus – You are the Son of the Most High. You are the Living, True Word. Through You alone we come to the Yahweh and I am so grateful and humbled that you would even give any thought to a person like me. Thank You Jesus for all that you have done, are doing and will do!
Glory to You forever and ever
Your servant and soldier
Amen and amen to each and every word Jim. Now, rest in the Lord, He’s got this! BIG SMILE!
I get it Jim. The last months had a mixture of hope & despair. Every time I felt like here is justice, here is the proof, then it would result in despair. I think all those movies & stories that had the hero who finally saves the day had me prepared for the justice to prevail in the end. I feel like I am being tested. The story hasn’t ended. We are in the middle of it. I need to repent, stand up for my beliefs against the evil one who has a grasp on the people. Anger bubbles up when I see what elected officials are doing & those who are behind the global reset. I have many sleepless nights where I wrestle with the angel. This is the biggest battle for my soul. This is bigger than presidents. It is our test. The distractions are many. I pray here to bring us into the place where we are protected for our eternal life.
Hi Jim,
I haven’t slept well for a long time. I had to also cast down imaginations of victim-hood, as we are more than conquerors in Christ who loves us. These are difficult times and we have been programmed very well by news and Hollywood to cause fear. It’s a total psy op, and it’s been running it’s course for many years, incrementally getting worse. But don’t believe their lies.
How to breakout, though sorrow remains, is to turn off the TV. My husband felt led to fast TV news and internet for 21 days. He has no desire anymore for it and has cast it off. He reads the Bible daily and reads the newspaper which is conservative. We both can focus on what is important to us, and projects that have been left undone are getting done. It’s amazing how torn down so called news=gossip makes you.
It’s one thing to understand the strategy of the adversary and then pray about what you have discerned, but quite another thing to pray then doubt. I know this because it has happened to me, but I cast that off, too. I believe and want you to know from my heart that God is in the midst.
When we pray for wickedness to be exposed…well sometimes it takes time. The deeper the deception the more time it takes. If you believe that we are facing end times, then rejoice because the adversary has but a short time to cause havoc and chaos, then the man of sin will be revealed and we who live to that moment will wonder, was this the man behind it all?
I have a promise from more than 30 years ago that is being fulfilled right now in these perilous times. My heart has been broken and stretched many times over the years, but I get glimpses of the heavenly realm from time to time and know that I know that God is a man to be trusted, he does not lie, cannot lie.
Gird up my brother, put on the armor of God daily. When negative thoughts try to lodge in your mind, cast them down in Jesus’ name. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but sound mind, power and love. Ask for courage, but ask for wisdom in your daily routines. I know that you do this, so now ask God for godliness of character, and contrite heart, walk circumspectly in all you do and give him praise. My heart has been so heavy that praise, even when it seems difficult, is the only way for the joy to overtake me. Seriously, he knows your name and loves you deeply, unlike anything you have ever known, right? When you read this, please stand up and give him a clap! Amen
He is answering your prayers, and much more…he is answering the cry of your heart, those things that cannot be put into words. How do I know? Because it is he that is developing you and caring for you, and me, and all who give their trust to him. He seeks us, just as we seek him. So be patient with yourself and your Creator. Put on praise music, deep soaking music, then make music and sing the songs your spirit brings you.
Our hope and trust can only be centered on God, no one man , no political powers, no judges, no experts all together can do what I believe God is about to do! Continue to keep your eyes and ears on Him! He’ll never let us down…He’s already win the battle (s) before us! ALL things will work together for good to them who love Him and keep on keeping on!
Obey! Trust! Praise!
He only has good planned for His children, hope and a marvelous future! Amen!
Your name is the name of my husband of 18 years and a few months, who died on my birthday.
It will be 39 years this July that I have been a widow: make that a consecrated widow!!!
My Jim was an alcoholic, abusive to me and my children, but I never gave up on him because
God would not allow me to give up. Those days were very hard and when we belong to the Lord,
it is in those hard days that He comes through. He bends down very close to you and listens
to hear your petitions, your trusting testimony and the love you want Him to know you have
for Him. The devil is lying to you and trying to draw you away from the source of blessings
that God provides for us. You do not have to listen to the devil. As a believer, you have
the right to refuse the devil’s plans for you and your child. We overcome by the blood of Jesus
shed for us and by our testimony. The devil is not impressed with our testimony, but he has no
choice but to cease and desist when we know that he is a liar and that our God is Truth! Sock it
to him!!! Don’t spare any words of faith, dig them out and use them on a constant basis. He really
doesn’t hang around to listen to the words of faith. He is defeated in the name of Jesus, but he
hopes you don’t know he is defeated. He lies about that and everything else. Remember that Jesus
said on the cross, “Father, why have you forsaken me!” Everything that Jesus did, He did for us!
That statement covered this time for you of feeling forsaken, just as His statement of “Father,
forgive them, they know not what they do” opened up the door of forgiveness for all of us. God is
always working and He is always faithful. You can depend on Him. We are praying for you now,
because you had the courage and humility to say how you were feeling. You are a member of a very
prestigious and highly blessed fellowship in the Body of Christ. Remember Jesus said, “Come unto
Me, all you who travail and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” He really meant that!
Just tell Him, “Lord, I qualify for that category and I am coming to You for rest.” Those who
trust Him will wait for Him and praise Him no matter what and the reward is great! “You will keep
him in constant peace whose mind (both its inclination and its character) is stayed on You.”
God’s richest blessings are on their way to you and your child, in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
Your comment moved me, you are a powerful woman of God! He has truly shown you His love and devotion which you return to Him in kind. Shalom, sister in Christ.
Thank you, Susan,
I count it a great blessing to be of some value to the Lord.
You are very kind.
Shalom!
WOW – that is true perseverance! Thank for sharing this with me. You encouraged me and helped pick me back up and stand firm in prayer and principle for Christ and all who stand with Him. And thank you for reminding me of the blessings and Truth; and pointing me to His Word (Scripture!). This is our weapon.
Love to you and love, honor and glory to our King Jesus, forever and ever!
Jim
Thank you, Jim,
To be of encouragement to you is a great source of delight to me.
You are very kind.
Dear Jim, Thank you for your openness and for trusting God. A few years ago, about 20, I was going through a very tough time with my marriage falling apart, my mother died, my daughter was having mental health crisis and I was at the end of myself. At the time, I was in a class at church called Self Confrontation. I prayed so much for release from all of these trials and finally cried out to God, “why am I going through all of this suffering?” The Lord answered me, ” this is not all about you. Don’t you understand that I am doing a work in all of my people. Trust in me.” Since that time, I am reminded that during all of the turbulence that is going on in our broken world, God is working out his plan and I simply need to rest in Him and trust.
Jim I know exactly how you feel because I feel the same way. At my church the Pastors constantly repeat the enemy’s reports and then say come quickly LORD JESUS. We have to occupy in faith until JESUS does come! I’ve had 3 deaths in my family since December 6th and I am praying the WORD of GOD even as I am fighting off that hopeless feeling. As we personally are under attack, we have to stay in the WORD and remember that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen! Hebrews 11:1 GOD IS moving and HE promised us that HE will contend with him that contendeth with us amd HE will save our children. HE will never forsake us. HE IS moving on our behalf even right now and always.
Thank you Carol. Your words were a real encouragement, especially hearing what you have gone through since December. WOW! My prayers are going up for you too!
And you make a great point that I’ve had to wrestle with too. I have been VERY disappointed in the Church and it’s response (as an institution) to the China virus, the liberal agenda, pro-life, vaccinations with aborted baby cells, lack of love and pastoring, and so many more Jesus teachings that are foundational in being in Him. I drive by churches with Black Lives Matter flags, Gay-LGBQT+ flags, and all sorts of other signs on them. I am so saddened by it all to see our Churches are no longer abiding by His teachings. How many countless authentic seekers have they made into even worse sinners than they are? Sincere people looking for hope and answers but finding an extension of what their soul is screaming to get away from (addiction, sinful life, failures trying to live on their own without Christ, souls longing for the Truth but only being met with more compromised principles and teachings). I am deeply saddened by the Church. And for the Church not to even stand up and offer massive prayers and guidance through these encroaching dark times. I believe they have compromised so much that now when it counts they are just as lost as the culture is and offer no answers and no true support. Both Priest and prophet are defiled! As several have said in response to my sharing, true colors are being shown of everyone, including the church.
Where is the strong leadership voicing what we are feeling and thinking and praying for? We huddle in groups because we need to be with one another while the real leaders and shepherds hide and ramble on about nothing. I’m tired of listening to pointless lectures about some verse in Scripture and how it relates to how to treat animals or something (a bit if joking here but you get my point) when loved ones are dying and our country is being overtaken by a godless order who hates Christ and His followers. A true enemy is at our doorstep and the church has compromised so much that it can no longer stand against it. Not that we weren’t warned that it would be this way.
My love and heart go out uplifting IFA. I will continue to stand and pray and not yield no matter how discouraged I get seeing all of this unfold before my eyes. It is a true blessing to be a part of IFA and be surrounded (albeit digitally) by so many prayer warriors and true followers of Christ. Those of us who have fought the good fight to not yield and compromise to Jesus’s teachings, God bless you and protect you and keep you. For as you said, He is with us!
All love, honor and glory to Jesus our King!
