I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we pray that Canada's leader would have a spiritual awakening from the influence of these clergies. We pray that he would draw near to you and want to experience your love. Amen.

From Fox News: A group of Canadian clergy sent an open letter to Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau earlier this week rebuking him for invoking the Emergencies Act to quell the Freedom Convoy and for other actions they described as “tyrannical.”

“We are writing to you as representative pastors of Christian congregations from across the nation and as law-abiding citizens who respect the God-defined role of civil government and uphold the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the highest law of our land, which recognizes the supremacy of God over all human legislation,” read the letter, which was signed by 29 clergymen and remains open for other Canadians to sign…

“The Ottawa protest has presented your government with a wonderful opportunity to meet with and speak to ordinary Canadians lawfully and peaceably requiring the restoration of their constitutional rights,” they wrote.

“However, in response to their singing, praying, dancing, candy floss, bouncy castles, speeches about the Constitution and outpourings of patriotic love for the country, your government has not only refused to meet with these citizens to hear their concerns, you have insulted, denigrated and lied about them, further dividing a hurting and broken nation…”

The pastors also condemned Trudeau “in the strongest possible terms” for his “unprecedented” invocation of the Emergencies Act to stop the Freedom Convoy protests and blockades. “There is no national emergency and to invoke one to crush peaceful political dissent is a totalitarian act of repression displaying weakness not strength,” they said…

The pastors concluded by urging Trudeau “to repent of the sins of pride, rebellion against God, and bearing false witness.”

“You have not displayed a brotherly care and love for these honest hard-working people who have tried to peacefully bring their very serious concerns to your attention,” they added…

The pastoral letter was organized by Liberty Coalition Canada, a Christian activist organization that was also behind the initiative urging ministers in Canada and the United States to devote their sermons on Jan. 16 to denouncing Bill C-4. The new Canadian law carries a potential five-year jail sentence for counseling that does not affirm homosexuality and transgender identity.

Approximately 5,000 churches joined in the protest from the pulpit, which took place less than a week before the first convoy departed for Ottawa from Prince Rupert, British Columbia, on Jan. 22.

Jehovah I pray that Justin Trudeau would take this letter to heart. I ask that you would convict him of his unfounded authoritarian behavior towards his citizens. Help him to see the truth about what he is doing and cause him to hear the words of his citizens. I come against Bill C-4 in Jesus name. This bill is an affront to Jehovah God and I ask in Jesus name that you would stop it and bring it to nothing!

I pray that PM Trudeau would have a change of heart due to the lord lifting the veil that keeps him in darkness. Yes dear Lord lift the veil so he sees the light, sees his sin and knows his absolute need for You, Lord. Save him Lord, and heal Canada!

Father, it is late. No more time to be nice. Crush his heart and lead him to salvation. Cause him to prophecy that the name of Jesus is the only name under heaven by which we must be saved!

“There is salvation in no one else! For there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by whom we must be saved!””
‭‭Acts of Emissaries of Yeshua (Act)‬ ‭4:12‬ ‭CJB‬‬

I have asking Father to reveal to me His heart for Justin Trudeau. I want to pray from heavens perspective and not out of my – yes, fleshly – frustration. Father, that I might marry grace and truth in my prayers for Prime Minister Trudeau. Let Him encounter you in the fear of the Lord. Let Him know that he must give an account before you for each action and that you have given him this position for such a time as this. Guard him from.the pressures of the political spirit, hubris and greed. Shape in him a servant’s heart through repentance and revelation of Your great mercy.

You cannot comply with tyranny. You need to have civil disobedience and pray that God judge this wickedness. I recommend reviewing the website Defy Tyrants and watch the video on Romans 13.

I totally agree with the Pastors who are asking Trudeau to withdraw the National Emergency measures so we as Canadians can enjoy our nation as it was before COVID and all it’s restrictions. I support our hard working truckers every step of the way and am praying that you will be honest in your decisions.

Father, turn Trudeau’s heart to you and to freedom. Give him repentance for such dictatorial rule and for despising the citizens of Canada and their desire for freedom. Open his eyes. Deliver Canada from the evil decisions that have been made in freedom and laws that go against your word. Thank you that these pastors spoke out. May all of Canada hear their words and listen.

In Proverbs alone, a false witness:
1. stirs up conflict
2. tells lies
3. pours out lies
4. is deceitful
5. will not go unpunished
6. will not go free
7. will perish

Dear Lord, I pray You will have Your way with Justin Trudeau and all those from whom he seeks guidance. May their lies perish before their eyes. May this conflict be a reflection, if not today or tomorrow soon. May their deceit not go unpunished. I pray in the Name of the Just One, Jesus Christ. Amen
