Iraqi terrorist groups recently joined forces with Iran to attack Israel. Iraqi forces are attacking U.S. military bases (and have been attacking them). 

From The Jerusalem Post. At least five rockets were launched from Iraq‘s town of Zummar towards a US military base in northeastern Syria on Sunday, two Iraqi security sources told Reuters.

Post a prayer for your state!

 

The attack against US forces is the first since early February when Iranian-backed groups in Iraq stopped their attacks against US troops.

It comes a day after Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani returned from a visit to the United States, where he met with President Joe Biden at the White House.

Rocket launchers fire at US forces

Iraq’s Kataib Hezbollah said early on Monday that armed groups decided to resume attacks on US forces in the country after seeing little progress on talks to achieve the exit of US troops during Iraq’s prime minister’s visit to Washington.

Kataib Hezbollah later denied these statements, saying they were fabricated. A statement on their Telegram stated that they were not resuming attacks on US forces. …

The attacks came after a huge blast at a military base in Iraq early on Saturday killed a member of an Iraqi security force that includes Iran-backed groups. The force commander said it was an attack while the army said it was investigating and there were no warplanes in the sky at the time. …

Father, I know that an ungodly war set to “steal, kill and destroy” is not your will for America. I believe your prophets, many of whom have stated that we are on the cusp of a world wide revival. It is understandable that the god of war would endeavor to interrupt and circumvent that with a war.
I pray you will lift up your mighty hand, and by your mercy hold back those ungodly individuals in authority, who agree with the god of death, and would try to commit this nation to war – for their profit.
We pray against it Lord – and for ” Your kingdom to come and Your will be done. We pray into Your plan and for a great awakening in this nation and the nations of the world. And we pray you will strengthen us, lead us, guide and protect us as we do our part in this critical season to cooperate with you.
We know Lord Jesus, that you are the soon returning King. Help us to be found doing , with our lamps lit and shining through the darkness when you come. For we know we have been called to stand for you and with you, for such a time as this.
Amen

Dear Jesus,
Asking that the people of the US start READING their Bible. In the Bible, it teaches about Israel from the Old Testament to the Book of Revelation.
It is complicated, but if people would repent, forgive, and obey Jesus, I am sure Jesus could restore and heal.
But right now, it is a mess. The Bible teaches, what a person sews, he will reap, or receive. It doesn’t matter what people think, God is always right. May people repent, forgive, obey Jesus. If not, Well, hold on, the US will be on A Roller Coaster Ride. Jesus HELP US. Amen

America is a paper tiger with Biden, Obama regime.
We only project weakness.
They are against God and Israel.
I pray their hearts soften and do not become hard like Pharos.
I don’t have hope for them. But my Savior Jesus can turn them around. So I hope in Jesus.

God, compel our nation to stand with Israel. We ask that You would give our leaders in Government and military, wisdom and courage to make the best decisions for Israel. Move our people to contact representatives to stand for what the American people want–help for Israel and no more weapons given to the enemies. We pray that You would capture every heart with Your great love and compassion and keep sending dreams and visions of “the man in white” to all people around the world. Embolden us to speak with love and courage into every situation that does not look like heaven, but needs to. We stand together in unity and agreement with Jesus today and declare ” Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven”. Thank you in advance for all that You are doing behind the scenes and on the front lines, In Jesus name.

Heavenly Father, God of Peace and Harmony, You would have Your children on earth live together in peace and quietness. Frustrate the plans of all evil men who would stir up violence and strife; spoil the weapons of those who delight in war and bloodshed; and according to Your mighty and holy will, end all wars in the world. Mercifully hear my prayer and grant us peace in our days. In Jesus’ mighty and holy name, and by His authority, I pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father, I love peace and yet I find that my country, the United States of America, has entered into armed conflict in the Middle East. However, You, O Lord, make wars cease to the ends of the earth. You break the bow and shatter the spear and burn the chariots in the fire. Grant a speedy end to this conflict. May the horrors of war move the world’s leaders to find a just and lasting solution to the things that now separate us. War so easily spirals out of control. So, check the hatred and cruelty of war; watch over the children and all innocent parties; and moderate all human behavior. Instill in us all an abhorrence of war that will make us all work tirelessly to find peaceful ways to solve our world’s problems. In Christ Jesus’ mighty and holy name, and by His authority, I pray. Amen.
