This past weekend, Democrats in the senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act. We must intercede and pray for our economy.
From The Epoch Times. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) has criticized Democrats for pushing their so-called Inflation Reduction Act, which he warns is a “terrible bill.”

The bill will double the size of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). But IRS agents are not designed to go after “billionaires and big corporations,” Cruz said in an interview with Fox News. “They’re designed to come after small businesses and working families across this country … The Democrats are making the IRS bigger than the Pentagon, plus the Department of State, plus the FBI, plus the Border Patrol combined … This is a massive power grab.”
Senate Democrats passed the Inflation Reduction Act on Aug. 7 with a 51 to 50 vote, with Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris casting her tie-breaking vote in favor of her party. The estimated $740 billion package now heads to the House for vote.
Over $300 billion will go to climate change and energy, which is the largest clean energy investment made by a federal government in American history. It also includes tax credits for electric vehicles. The bill institutes a 15 percent minimum tax for corporations making over $1 billion a year….
Widespread Criticism
In an Aug. 8 Twitter post, Sen. Masha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) called the $80 billion set aside to double the number of IRS agents as practically giving “every American a personalized tax auditor.”
Instead of increasing taxes, the government should be focusing on reducing them, she insisted. The Democrats’ “socialist agenda” will make the life of Tennesseans “more difficult and expensive….”

I pray against this inflation reduction act bill passing. I come against this way of getting bills passed by sneaking information only to one party ,preventing other party from having time to analyze bill and from seeking to pass it during recess.I say no more! As a nation under God, I say no more to this manipulation by demonic spirits. No more. I bind you on earth, thus you are bound in heaven. Father, we ask in the name of Jesus that this be removed from our land, by the power of Your Holy Spirit.
Nowhere in God’s word are we to stand down. Every prophet engaged in the political. In the case of giving to God what is God’s and Caesar what is Caesar’s, that is not a deviation from our responsibilities.
Benjamin Franklin’s letter was not an endorsement to separate church from state, it was a warning to not let the state dictate as was the case in England. Liberty is fragile, backed by God and must be preserved by casting out the wicked. This theme is repeated throughout Scripture many times.
Cases in point, the West Coast imprisoned some Japanese. Why? The Japanese has breached our shores. The East Coast our the German populace in notice. Why? Our East Coast was breached by Germans.
God is our only hope, but if we chant “even so, come Lord Jesus“ without understanding what that phrase entails, we run the risk of getting steamrolled.
Psalm 3:2(1)-5(4) CJB
If you’re going to share the story give both sides not jut one side. If you’re not doing anything wrong there should be no worries about a personalized auditor. Praying that the church focuses on sharing The word of God instead of getting caught up in the politics of the world. We need to keep the separation of church and state separate. The churches function is to tell others/lead others to Jesus Christ not to be in the politics of the world. God has the last say so. He is the one who puts men in positions of authority. And yes we should pray for our leaders regardless of what affiliation you connect with.
I believe this bill is based on ESG which has no value and President Biden is in bed with WEF and WHO who has no concern for We the People. We as believers of God,Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit need to stand strong and speak to this mountain to be cast into the sea in Jesus Name and it shall be done. No weapon formed against us shall prosper. For we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. We are overcomes by our faith. Amen and Amen 🙏 🙏
Praying that God will open the eyes of the blind in our government and will give the ones who are wise enough to see how bad this bill is to have the influence they need to strike it down. Lord Jesus hear our cry.
Father, we thank you that you are working on our country. We pray against this bill. We pray it would not pass. But may we trust you on the middle of this mess to work things for your glory and our good.
