God, we thank You for all You have done through intercessors in our nation.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

Did you know that Intercessors for America and intercessors were honored and recognized in the Congressional Record?

Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.

 

On Nov. 9, at the start of our 50th anniversary celebration, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith formally recognized IFA and its 50th anniversary in an additional statement to the U.S. Senate. She called IFA “a ministry that has faithfully served believers by encouraging effective prayer and fasting for the Church, our Nation, and our elected leaders, including those of us elected to Congress.” Through her words, we have been forever immortalized in the records of our federal government.

We have pulled prayer points out of this statement and created a resource to assist you in your intercession. You can download this resource from the Prayer Guides section of our website or by clicking on the ad below.

Lord, thank you for this community of pray-ers!
Thank you for giving us opportunity to agree in prayer.
Thank you Sooo much for using all the confusion around speaker to put a man who loves You, Johnson, in Speaker seat. Please give him wisdom from You, guide him with Your Word, help him hear You above all the other voices and give him courage to live that song, Trust and Obey! Please give him favor with all the House, even enemies.
Bind the spirit of confusion and strife that has been at work in our country in Jesus name. By Jesus glorious name, for His glory, honor and great, deep pleasure loose Your Holy Spirit, with a reverent awe for You, with the gift of discernment- bring a want to do good, a repulsion toward evil, in any form, real shalom, courage to heal and be whole, to embrace real, authentic wellness, in every area, personal, families, faith, businesses, schools, community ‘at large’.
Lord, we agree we don’t know where to start because the needs are so great but we are looking to You, cause there is nothing to hard for You! No heart too hard, no problem, mess too great for You.
We love You Lord. HaPpY Birthday Jehovah Jesus❣️
Thank you so much for coming, so we can say Merry Messiahmas❣️

Thank you Lord for giving us, Your children/royal priesthood, prayers, calling us to intercede, so many groups of interceders…I am so glad and grateful for IFA, over the years , all the prayers and Your answers! Answers so good, even the ones who prayed could not imagine!
Thank you for at least one in Congress who acknowledged Your ministry, at such a time as this Lord🙏
Thank you for the growth in IFA, not only the numbers, but the respect for Your Word, in word use and in deed.
Poppa G-D, this holy season, cleanse us, Your church, Your Bride, remove anything and everything that gets in the way of us doing Your will Your way.
Father, help us be true to You and Your way. Help us be the Lightbearers You ordained us to be.

A moment of reflection during Christmas 2023- There was nothing or majestic about His appearance “ Isaiah-53:2”AMPC” For [the Servant of God] grew up before Him like a tender plant, and like a root out of dry ground; He has no form or comeliness [royal, kingly pomp], that we should look at Him, and no beauty that we should desire Him.” On the outside Jesus was just a normal baby with a natural body made of human flesh. OH! But on the inside of Him – He was God’s own Son. As I watched A story that foretold the story of Jesus presented, on EMIC as their part of the Christmas story to present Jesus birth. God I said these words and meant them- Jesus was the best extravagant Christmas gift ever Given. Our Heavenly Father loved us so much, He found a way to forgive us of sin in our lives. When Mary was presented that God was planting a seed by the Holy Spirit and that she was chosen to carry and be the mother of Baby Jesus. Lord God showed His love so much by making a way after Adam/ Eve sinned and we all would be born into sin. Jesus was to pay it all so we as human beings would be given a chance for salvation. Jesus came in a very ordinary way of being born. This Gift that was given us, can never be paid back, because of What He understood; was He was a sacrifice for us as Human beings. My own belief is our Heavenly Father wanted a Family. God knew that all sin would not be completely gone, but He knew many would become believers because of His words in the scriptures that the disciples wrote from the wisdom words from God. Romans -8-14-17 “ 14 For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons and daughters of God. 15 For you have not received a spirit of slavery [a]leading to fear again, but you have received [b]a spirit of adoption as sons and daughters by which we cry out, “Abba! [c]Father!” 16 The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.“ God we thank You for the presents given to us, it is better than any presents under a tree, knowing that we are accepted as Gods own sons and daughter. If we believe, have Faith through the Prompting of the Holy Spirit that speaks to us. As Intercessors the depth of love grows as we learn to pray for others, and reap the rewards of them knowing about Jesus. Jesus becomes light to our souls, our emotions will affect us but we should not allow the Body be the boss. Our spirit should be the leader, because it should take the lead. There is a old song- this little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. The Holy Spirit is where the light of God shines. What a treasured gift from Jesus- Revelation, understanding, knowledge all come From God. Jesus was not wrapped up like the presents we receive today under a Christmas Tree. God we say thank You again and again for the Gift of Light: John -8-12” I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” My prayers to and about others is to shine Jesus light upon their darkest moments. One of our most important tool is not only prayer, but the word, He is the word made flesh, that is why we must try to understand by reading Gods words daily. As believers we are told in Ephesians – 5-18” we are told -“ to be filled with the spirit” God instructs – so this means we must participate in this filling. God as I learn more and more, I realize that what I was taught does not gel with Gods words, I really feel in my spirit when the Holy Spirt confirms my new understanding it is what God wants me to believe, not just what someone tells me. So I go look it up and research! God I found a wonderful quote that is pure gold and I hope these words will change lives-“ The unchangeable, faultless, eternal circumstances- dominating faith producing Word of the almighty God is the Seed that produces new life in You!”
I apologize for missing my 7:00 time slot. Hope this time is counted. An important mission popped up. Be blessed

Praise you Father for the IFA. Thank you for the gift of intercession.

1 Kings 13:6 NIV
Then the king said to the man of God, “Intercede with the LORD your God and pray for me that my hand may be restored.” So the man of God interceded with the LORD, and the king’s hand was restored and became as it was before.
