Pray for God’s wisdom to prevail in matters of national interest.
“Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.” (Jer 33:3)
Here’s what YOU said…
In our latest survey, asking “Is God speaking to us through natural disasters?,” here are the results from you and your fellow intercessors:
Is God speaking to us through hurricanes, fires, and flooding?
Yes 87.7%
Unsure 7.1%
No 5.1 %
For those of you who believe God is speaking to us, here is what you believe God is saying:
We as a nation need to repent 67%
He is coming soon 10.1%
Other 7.1%
A great revival is coming soon 6.6%
Too late—this is your judgment 0.5%
How are you responding to natural disasters?
Lord, wake up your Church! 35%
Lord, may we hear your voice! 26.6%
All answers apply 19.5%
Lord, have compassion 8.2%
Other 5.8%
Lord, come quickly! 4.4%
Why Lord? 0.4%
How are you praying? Here are a couple of responses we received from intercessors like you.
“Lord, please forgive us of our sins, for our iniquities, and for not abiding in you and all your precepts. Hide not your face from this nation during this time of trouble and groaning. Teach us to number our days so that our hearts return to you.”
“For God to move in such a way that it is undeniable Him at work.”
“Praying to restore the nation, spiritually, morally, politically and academia. Heal the wounds of divisions. Let the nation as a whole come to God of all lives.”
“That God would not lift his hand of grace from our nation! And to hear what the spirit is saying to me. I asked him to create a right spirit within me, to revive me again, and to renew the fire of “God” within me.”
Here are (some of) the Scriptures that God has put on our hearts as we are praying:
I Thessalonians 5:1-11
Ephesians 6:10-20
Luke 21:25
Romans 12:9-10
Joshua 1:9
Psalm 37:7-8
How have you seen God answer prayers in this time of crisis in our nation?
Here are just some of the responses we received:
“We were spared the worst of the storm that they were saying we would get.”
“Yes diminishing the fury of this storm, drawing people together in Love”
“The racial divisions have been broken down where people have been in need.”
“The fact that many people from both sides are working together to help people in need!”
“People helping people.”
“I see us sharing each other’s burdens. Having compassion for them and sharing our resources with them”
“Yes, that people would start to pray. I’ve seen a new interest in prayer and that we help others and we have seen that too!”
” Our new house is yet without flood insurance. There was a flooding of our neighborhood, but it stopped two houses away from us. We lost power, but previous home is not yet on market and had not lost power, so we were able to spend nights in air conditioning.”
“Squelching the loud voices of disharmony and showing that Americans still care about each other!”
“No color of the skin mattered – unity”
“I see people helping each other instead of fighting with each other.”
Thank you to the over 1,000 people who took the time to share in our survey!

Amen I wasn’t in line of these storms but as call by pastor over 40 years ago not call by man but by God. I am not license but I am ordained and I pray and preach from the Spirit of God. God has given ma a ministry on paltalk call the Holy Ghost Fire Praise And Ministry and we just did a lesson on Fasting prayer Praise and Worship. Which was right on time because right as we was all most through Irma raised her ugly head up. I don’t believe God caused these storms be cause the bible says satan can’t cast out satan I do however believe God will allow these storms to happen when no one intercedes and when sin is not repented of. Isa 59:15 Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.
Isa 59:16 And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.
Isa 59:17 For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke.
Isa 59:18 According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
Isa 59:19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
We now have a intercessor interceding for us sitting on the right hand of the father but yet we kill thousand’s unborn babies every day we say it is ok for men and women to get marry to each other and adopt children and teach them evil ways the judgement of this generation and the generation is to come is on our heads, Yes God will hear our prayers but the Judgement of God is falling. It is time the body of Christ wakes up and put God first before it is to late judgement is up on us.
Our struggles are about Him, and He is looking for us to continue and double down in prayer. As He says in His word, it is our “reasonable service” for all he has done for us. Lord i ask you to truly bless all those who fast for this nation, i thank you for the sister sharing your love for this nation, help us to search ourselves to make sure all is right between YOu and us so your Spirit might have control of our walk. Thank you that our prayers did cause Irma to lesson in strentht, PRaise you for that. Help us to not grow weary in well doing dear Lord, and thank you for the opportunity to work with YOu, almighty God. Wow, what a priviledge. Praise you Lord, In Jesus name, Amen
Before Irma struck the Islands and FLorida, I was led into a three day fasting and prayer time re: these horrendous hurricanes. My prayer was this: Abba – you are the creator of life. You are The God of life. You supply the first breath to every baby born. You knew us in the womb before you formed us. You are about life and only You can create life. So, Abba – spare life! As long as there is breath there is hope. The dead cannot praise you – only those alive can praise you. Yeshua died for us while we were yet sinners. He had no guarantees of how many of us would believe in him, follow in His footsteps. But as long as there is breath in a human soul, there is hope for relationship with You. Abba – you are The God of all life. Spare life, Abba. You are certainly entitled to vengeance and judgment. The blood of the innocents soaks our land and cries out to you. Vengeance belongs only to you. But life belongs only to You, also. Abba – spare life.
27 years ago I had an encounter with the Lord that was very powerful. I sensed the Holy Spirit on me, in me, around me so poignantly it made me weep like a baby. He clearly spoke to my heart, calling me to be an intercessor for our nation. This may sound stupid, but I was clueless and asked the Lord why. At that point He gave me this supernatural, intense love for our nation. I thought my heart would burst! I also felt the pain of His broken heart. I cannot tell you how amazing the encounter was – there are no words. Between shaking and weeping, I said YES Lord, I will pray for this nation earnestly, regularly, faithfully.
God loves this nation and I believe there is hope, that our prayers are making a difference – little by little we can take the land. I think it is a miracle that President Trump is in office and I believe God is using him. Pray for him! He is up against intense battles! THANK YOU so much for being an intercessor and thank you for being faithful to Jesus!
I am so thankful we have a God who is patient with us. For too long we have ignored His Word and have gone our own way. I look at all these catastrophies as warnings from Our Lord to pay attention to Him and what He is doing. My prayer is for America to repent of our sins and turn to God, away from our wicked ways so He will hear us and heal our land. I pray this will start in the church of Jesus Christ and that we will be obedient to the Great Commission. Through every one of these hurricanes, earthquakes and devastations, I pray that Jesus Christ will be glorified.
Dear Saints of God
If you believe these storms and destruction have been sent by God, please do not pray against them.
Let them do their destructive work. Otherwise you are praying against the will of God.
Now if you believe our lack of repentance and our not turning from our wicked ways has brought this on – yes amen – now is a good time to start repenting and turning.
However, precious Brothers and Sisters,
If God is not sending these storms then pray with authority using the mighty name of Jesus.
Pray the church wake up, so we can have a Renaissance: for almost 1,800 years the Harlot has ruled the church with Priests/Master Pastors, with degrees form man instead of a calling from God Almighty, with a division from the ruling class of the church instead of everyone has a song, a hymn, a word, a teaching, or even a prophecy, a lay class has been created who just lay around, and come on Sunday to warm a pew. This is how GOD Almighty who doesn’t change has set his church up: 1 Cor 12:28
28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps [pulls people into the spirit, like music, instruments etc…], governments, (divers) kinds of tongues.

The Lord showed me years ago before the school shooting started, that Satan was coming after our children. I asked those I spoke before to drive around their children’s schools daily and pray in the spirit for protection. We have never had any problems in our schools like other areas and that has been almost 20 years. Now, I am hearing the same thing, only that Satan is here for our children. What God has given me for the schools can also aply anywhere. Silent anointed prayer in the name of Jesus is our secret weapon. Rub your hands with anointing oil each morning before you leave home, silently pray in the spirit and touch the doorposts as you enter and touch the seats of those you pass anointing them with silent prayer for the peace of Jesus as you pass through. Teach your children to place the anointing oil on their hands each morning before they leave home and silently anoint the chairs in the rooms where others sit, praying that God’s peace and love will prevail. Touch the lockers and pray for God’s peace to enter. A prayer room for Muslims? Don’t protest, silently anoint and pray. Touch the doorposts with anointed hands as you pass by and silently pray that all who enter may be visited by Jesus and come to know him. Anoint the chairs that they sit in during class. Other religions are relying on loudness to disrupt and place fear. Our God lives within the still small voice. Silent prayer shall win out but we must pray for others. A silent prayer does more in the spirit than loud angry words exchanged in the name of religion. Jesus is Peace and Love.
Anyone that does not believe that God answers prayer doesn’t know the same God I know. We have had so many prayers answered and God has been so good to us. I would never want to try living with out God in my life. I know some people call us stupid for believing there is a God. I had much rather be called stupid and have God than to be with out hope. Where are the people’s hope that don’t know God?
I have continually been praying for America and our presidents, leaders, etc. What i feel the Lord has been speaking during times of prayer has come out of the book of Hosea.
Hosea 12:3-6 NLT
Even in the womb, Jacob struggled with his brother; when he became a man, he even fought with God. Yes, hr wrestled with the angel and won. He wept and pleaded for a blessing from him. There at Bethel he met God face to face and God spoke to him. The Lord God of heavens armies, the Lord is His name.
So now, come back to your God.
Act with love and justice, and always depend on Him.
We are seeing some judgment but i believe creation is crying out as well. Creation is waiting for the church to get it together and be the ekklesia we were called to be. I believe the Lord is calling us to repentance, to prayer, and to fast for our nation and the nations. The cry of the Lord in Hosea is so similar to where we are now as a nation. Hosea is married to unfaithful bride in a nation that forgot about the Lord who mercifully saved them, spared them, and delivered them time and time again. I believe we christians have been that unfaithful bride like Gomer. Our nation is remiving God , changing laws, unfairly persecuting believers, dishonoring our leaders even our president, and mocking the church. We havent done much to stop it. The father is crying out Come back to me! I believe this is a wake up call to the church first…unbelievers don’t know any better…but we do. If this is judgment we must remember judgement begins at the house of God. We need to examine ourselves, our ways, and repent and come back to our first love. God is Holy and the Judge, but he is also merciful and good and longsuffering not willing that any should perish. Have mercy on us Lord not for our sake, but for your great name.
I believe that when disasters happen or war time in the world people turn to God. Vice President quoted the Bible not to long ago – If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will heal their land 2 Chronicles 7:14. I do believe there are many thousands of people who are praying for our Country and the world!
At this point in time, we have gone through the greatest turn from our American Christian foundation and actually have laws installed to persecute Christians and ruin and keep Christians from being able to make a living and own businesses, and take political office is in question. The schools have been taken over and the history revised, and morals diminished. Regaining what has already been lost is a difficult if not impossible task, but we now have that opportunity to try. So why the disasters now? When we finally are edging, crawling really, in a positive direction. What would that be saying? Are the promises being given, not enough, go far enough, lies even? I wonder if Congress and the Senate really want change? Can they jerk the entire band-aid off?
Mark 9:29; KJV
And He said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing but prayer and fasting.
Do you all know that when I looked this up to make sure I had it word for word right, that the first 6 translations had left out fasting ;
NIV, NLT, ESV, Berean study bible, Berean literal bible, NASB, NLT bible….
Do we think God is happy about this, I think not, do we think Satan is happy about this, ecstatic; even satanism and cults fast. Our passion, our prayers, our commitment, our faith can be and sometimes is fleshly. I too have been apart of fleshly christianity, but I do fast often and with regularity. I did not want to include this last statement, but did because of bringing up the subject at all. So may we fast with ashes and beating of our breasts, and may we continue to ask for mercy upon this bountiful nation, ourselves, the sinners, and may each of be revived, and follow God’said commands of His Holy, blood bought word to the fullest extent, literally. Thank you God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit, and the Christian refugees, and thank you to you all as we forget on in the beautiful name of Our Savior and everyone’s Savior, Jesus.
I really got a witness to pray for the body of Christ to WAKE UP and take up our spiritual authority and pray !!! When I got up this morning and saw the news and thought about President Trump calling Kim Jong “ROCKET MAN” I realized how unintimidated we should all be about this evil bully and declare him defeated and removed and taken down in the spirtual realm. I know that millions of believers are praying in South Korea and that the Lord in His great mercy wants to free the suffering people of North Korea. So standing with God’s purposes we declare it!!!
God spared our state from the devastating effects of the hurricanes. We prayed and he was merciful to us and we need to pray for other countries who are experiencing floods, fires, earthquakes and all the fear that accompanies these disasters. I believe that God wants revival in our nation, I pray that we will not fail Him, that we will do what he leads us to do to restore our once morally upright, Christian country.
There are frequencies in everything that God has created. Every person too. Gods enemies are using frequencies to change DNA. We know who they are. Gods frequencies heal everything. Look on youtube.com See Michael Tyrrell, and see the story and how HZ444 an HZ528 heal things. This is worth reading because there is a book that tells about how frequencies changed Nazi Germany, causing anger and fear in its people and was created by Joseph Goring. Not sure of spelling. It is true. That is why we have so much anger in people.
We need to pray that our nation will come back to our first which is Jesus Christ our Lord and our Savior and, as Christians we need to repent for ourselves and our country
I have been an intercessor for 10 years, but for the last 3 years I had become stagnant in my prayer life. Since the natural disasters in the last month God has spoken to me in such a profound way I’m getting my prayer life in order. I live in Florida although we were in the direct path of Irma (Shalom). I prayed from the time we were informed about the hurricane. We were spared by the grace of God! No loss of power and a small leak in the living room ceiling and carpet. Praise God!!! Every morning around 6 am the Holy Spirit wakes me and I go outside to pray, it’s all coming back and I’m forever grateful because prayer changes things!!!!!!
Please pray for the wicked to turn and repent, as God takes no pleasure in their death. Thanks be to God for His mercy.
Nancy I think you are right on with what you think that God is looking at. I don’t know what these other places who are getting earthquakes and repeated hurricanes’s have done but it certainly makes you take notice because America wants to be blessed yet not live according to what God wants. I pray our country will turn around but also confess for all the wrong we have done. So many lives lost because someone thought it was inconvenient. The depraved minds of those who call themselves transgender, and the immorality that is rampant throughtout our land. We ask ” God to Bless America” I think we must ask God to forgive America.
Several years ago i heard the Lord tellimg me that the Church was asleep..it needed to wake up and there needed to be revival startung with us. My ministry was called “Waking Hearts” ministry…it faltered..i felt like a failure..like i never heard from the Lord at all…but now i see that I did hear from God..it was just that no one wanted to listen…i am so glad people are now saying what I Said many years ago…Wake Up Church..its up to us as believers if we want to see revival and a change in this society.
Beautiful and I agree.
The Church is asleep in America and natural disasters is our wake up call. The call to repentance is evident, and we must turn to Him in mind, body and Spirit. Thank you for the above results!
As an intercessor, I pray daily for our President, Vice President, leaders and
for the church to wake up. God is speaking. Is anybody listening? Are
preachers listening? What is the church for but to be moral leaders and to
stand up for truth and to speak out.
How does God forgive a nation that has murdered 60 million children in their
mother’s wombs and they call it “a woman’s choice”?
How does He forgive our acceptance of homosexuality and lesbianism and now
transgender individuals without taking a stand?
God is merciful and kind and forgiving and we need to cry out to Him for
forgiveness in sincerity. He will forgive and heal our land if the church asks
for His mercy.
I will keep on praying and believing because God loves this wonderful nation and wants us to survive and cause us again to say “In God We Trust”.
