I Prayed have prayed
Father, we pray for an end to all terrorism within our borders. We pray for a swift end to the conflict in the Middle East!
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Operation Epic Fury continues. Israel’s and America’s attacks are increasing, and Iranian missiles are striking Israeli cities. Amid the conflict, however, recent terrorists seem to imply that the fighting has expanded beyond the Middle East, even reaching our shores.

From CBN:

Israeli and American forces struck targets across Iran on Thursday, and Israel’s military confirms that its airstrikes have focused on Iran’s drone operations and leaders of the Basij paramilitary force.

According to the Israel Defense Forces, more than 250 Iranian drones and dozens of launchers have been destroyed since the fighting began. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) indicates that U.S. forces have struck roughly 6,000 targets, including more than 90 Iranian naval vessels, among them, about 60 ships and 30 minelayers.

Iran launched at least six missile barrages toward Israel throughout the day on Thursday, sending millions of Israelis, from Eilat in the south to Kiryat Shmona in the north, running for bomb shelters.

As the fighting continues in the Middle East, however, many fear that the conflict may have reached our shores. Earlier this week, the U.S. intercepted a possible Iranian “sleeper assets” trigger. And recent terror attacks, while not directly tied to Iran, could be related to this trigger.

CBN notes two terrorist attacks that occurred this week. In one instance, a Lebanese immigrant rammed his vehicle into a synagogue in Michigan. Though no one was hurt, the FBI stated afterward it is investigating the attack as “a targeted act of violence against the Jewish community.”

In another instance, former National Guardsman Mohamed Bailor Jalloh opened fire in an Old Dominion University classroom, killing one person and injuring two others. Jalloh formerly pleaded guilty in 2016 to attempting to provide material support to ISIS. He also reportedly shouted “Allahu Akhbar” before carrying out his attack.

This is a sign that the war has reached our shores. Even if these two men were not directly connected to Iran, it seems all too likely that they were motivated by the conflict in the Middle East. As CBN puts it, “As the war between Israel and Iran continues to intensify, the conflict is no longer confined to the Middle East, with Security concerns now stretching from the Persian Gulf to American cities.”

Let’s pray for a swift and decisive victory over Iran, and let’s pray for protection from all attacks like these in America!

My Lord and God, I pray for the protection of innocent civilians from the terrorists’ attacks within our shores. I ask for You to empower the authorities to intercept and capture sleeper cells within our country. Use Heavenly Might to stop them from carrying out their plots of destruction and prevent them from harming people. Move with resolve through these conflicts and restore safety in our neighborhoods, streets, and homes. And Lord, do anything in Your Power to stop this war with Iran. And protect our ally, Ysrael! In Jesus’ name, by His Blood, and the Power of the Holy Spirit I pray unto You, my God, Amen!

Reached our shores. Are we serious? US has been a mess for a long time and it is from the inside. We are supposed to be One Nation, Under God, INDIVISABLE! We can’t even agree on a time change. Where can we go from here? A house divided against itself cannot stand. So, goes US.

    Reengage with the Lord and find your hope in him again. The last thing a believer should be is hopeless.
    If we could ask the disciples as they watched the Lord on the Cross about what they were feeling, most likely they would say they were hopeless. It doesn’t make it right though, does it? Let’s don’t make their mistake. We are never without hope because of the Cross of Jesus Christ!

Our Heavenly Father. We ask that you protect and bless all the American
and Israeli troops that are fighting together against this evil Iranian Regime.
Thank you for all your Warring Angels that are fighting with them and hitting
all the targets of the Navy, Air Force, missile launchers and missiles, taking out
the Ayatollah and all his henchmen.

Please help the Military to find uranium and possible nuclear missiles that may be
hidden somewhere. We thank you for the strength and might that Our Military
has and that the strikes are with perfect accuracy. Lord, this War is turning into
a Global situation and we PRAY that you will watch over Our Troops that are fighting
so bravely and diligently.

We are already seeing lone wolfs who are trying to attack on our soil, but most of their
plans have been stopped. We know that Biden let in thousands of people who mean
to do us harm. Please protect us and send Angels to stop any evil doer in their tracks.

We are a Great Country who believes in God and was formed by Judeo-Christian beliefs.
Please control the Democrats in Congress who mean to do us harm. Please let them open
up the DHS so we can have Security and Safety in this dark moment in history. WE ALL
NEED TO BE IN PRAYER 24/7. Pray for President Trump and all his Cabinet Members.
Especially pray for all our Troops and protect them as they carry out their Missions.
Thank you Lord for listening to us and giving us so many miracles so far. Our God is
an Awesome God and will Bless those who Bless Israel. Please help our division
in Our Great Country. Bring us back to what we once were.

In Jesus Name,
Amen and Amen.

There is still not a single IFA post with the names, with photos, with the family photos – of the very young men and women of the US military who have lost their lives, both last week and this week. I’ve learned of one, who became a father recently. Maj. Alex Klinner.

If you’re going to claim the mantle of prophecy to suit your posture as this war unfolds – then my prayer is you don’t lose your souls in the process of idolizing said prophecy. My prayer is you all take care not to place the sense of your own knowledge – pride in your own finite understanding – above Christ, and above neighbor. Idolizing worldly military or political action over the saving of souls, and loving the lost. That is the Great Commission.

Prophecy without the fruit of the spirit is a sham. And blood-thirst and tribalism are NOT fruit of the spirit.

“Knowledge puffs up…” – 1 Corinthians 8:1

“For where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away…” – `1 Corinthians 13:8

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’…‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” – Matthew 22:37-40

“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” – 1 Corinthians 13:13

    And re: “our shores” – do you all not realize the migration crisis from Iran into Western shores that is on the horizon? Much bigger than Syria, Libya, etc…

    Bombing countries into oblivion has consequences that you will see in your own neighborhood one way or the other.

    LORD, please wake people up.

God we pray against terrorism . We pray for protection. We pray that you protect those that serve. We pray against the spirit of satan the operates under many names, but we understand it is one false agenda. We ask that you raise up the remnant raise up the intercessor you raise up the gatekeeper you raise up the Prayer warrior you raise up Judah to go at the forefront of your army that you raise up your army at this time close and righteousness and strength for your glory for your kingdom sake we know the Bible we know Jesus is Jewish. We know we are too protect the Jewish people however Jesus also called many of the Jewish leaders synagogue of Satan because he understand the perverse agendas, their manipulation and control and that they did not recognize him as a son of God and they actually worshiped to Baahl aka the demonic deceiving notion that somehow their perverted truths and Torah and good works or somehow gonna save the Jewish people, but that is not scripture and that is not truth and that is why many who practice even down to the wailing at the western wall are operating out of the wrong spirit. The thrusting is a sexual motion. It is not unto our holy father. I asked that you open the eyes of the people to learn to discern that this is the great divide that in every group in every race you were gonna have those that are for God and those that are against God you are either serving Jesus Christ or the devil is using you and serving you to the kingdom of darkness. But the eyes of the people be awakened let them cry out and repentance and let revival fall upon this earth in every nation Lord stop this 20/30 agenda stop this false peace stop the lies stop the governing of the UN and the who.
Expose every satanic work of darkness, expose, and prosecute every satanic work of darkness in the mighty name of Jesus, we pray amen

The idea that this war has reached our shore sis not surprising. Look at what happened during the Biden administration, when many people were allowed to enter our nation just because we had an open borders policy. We are reaping what was sown during those years. People from the Middle East, for the most part, are totally unreasonable, radical, and are totally opposed to the idea of peaceful living. In my opinion, they need to be deported ASAP. If we don’t how can we EVER secure our nation? We have enough problems to deal with in our nation already, without having to deal with these ungodly people and their evil behavior.

The favor of God is upon Trump and America for standing with Israel in this Just War against this fanatical Iranian Regime. These terrorist attacks could have been much worse but were quenched by angels and brave, alert humans. Thank you Lord for your Mighty Hand covering us, we have blessed Israel and we are blessed! Salvation is physical not just spiritual, and Israelis need to be alive to get saved spiritually. Give us Victory O Lord of Hosts and liberate the suffering people of Iran to the Glory of your Kingdom. Matthew 6.10.

The end of the world is not here. But the time for the sons of God through Christ Jesus to rise and take their places as to His power and authority in them, is here.

The article stated
“As the fighting continues in the Middle East, however, many fear…”

Fear, the antithesis of the faith of the believer. Fear is what nulls and voids our faith.

One thing about these so-called sleeper cells, which I do believe exist, is this. Once again, as we have seen, God is exposing where they are and who they are. It is incumbent upon us as believers to simply pray (declare, decree, litigate) out of Faith and not fear, and then expect our Father to do what he’s already doing, exposing the enemy so that the enemy can be dealt with. “Having done all, to stand”
IN HIM as He then does his part.

What do you think the sleeper cells here in the United States would be doing under an administration like Kamala Harris‘s? They would have known they had little to no opposition and they would have been coming out of hiding by the droves and striking American population centers. But instead, they are driveling out at as God ordains.
Notice who’s in control and be thankful. Be a part of it by declaring and decreeing YOUR part, as led by the Holy Spirit.

Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you that you indeed are in control in this nation and world according to the faith we have in You to move in these difficult situations and times.
(Eph 3:20  Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT WORKETH IN US,…Emph mine)

ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT WORKETH IN US…selah

We do not serve a God who is powerless to help in time of need. We do not serve a God that is so powerless that he fails at protecting his people and must rescue them by swooping them out. He allowed his Son to come and pay the kind of price He paid, for failure? I don’t think so.

Just as many other false ideologies have been taught to us for the last many decades, another false narrative has been the enemy promoting this “loser” eschatology to all of us.

Explain this scripture in light current false eschatology :

Rom 8:19  For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God…

You can’t…
and have it make sense.

There are many others like it, the time of which I do not have to list.

If the enemy can keep us in fear, he can nullify the very thing that God requires from us, our Faith.

Heb 11:6  But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Pray from the stance of who you are in him, Christ Jesus, and who he’s made you to be in his name, a mighty warrior assisting in accomplishing his will in his creation! Not someone that runs and hides and waits to be rescued.

In Jesus name,
Amen.

didn’t Jesus say that once Israel acknowledges that Jesus is true God, Son of the Blessed Virgin Mary, there will be peace.

Please I am not looking for debates. But I truly believe this in my heart. I believe that the conversion of Israel will bring conversion to the whole world including those within my family.

Ps. 68
Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered, And let those who hate Him flee before Him.
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; As wax melts before the fire, So let the wicked perish before God; But let the righteous be glad; let them exalt before God; Yes, let them rejoice with gladness, Sing to God. sing praises to His name; Lift up a song for Him who rides thur the deserts, Whose name is tge Lord, and exult before Him.
19. Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, The God who is our Salvation. God, is to us, a God of deliverances; And to God the Lord belong escapes from death. Surely God will scatter the head of His enemies The hairy crown of him who goes on in his guilty deeds.
The Lord said, ” I will bring them back from Bashan I will bring them back from the depths of the sea.That your foot may shatter them in blood, The tongue of your dog’s may have its portion from your enemies. ”
32. Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth. Sing praises to the Lord!!! To Him who rides upon the highest heavens, which are from ancient times; behold, HE SPEAKS FORTH WITH His voice, a mighty voice. Ascribe strength to God; His majesty is over Israel And His strength is in the skies. O God, You are awesome from your sanctuary. The God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to the people. Blessed be God!!!

Lord, You told us that as the time for Your return is immanent, that there would be wars and rumors of wars, but that we were to look up, as our Redemption draws nigh. Father we ask you to awaken us as believers to seize the time to share with others about Your redemptive Love. Help us to be about the Father’s business, to see what the Father is doing in the midst of all this chaos and unrest. We pray for salvation to come to all who do not know You and help us a believers to be in the Word, seeking Your face, so that we might have a Word from a “far land” that will bring refreshing.
