Yahweh Nissi, in the mighty name of Jesus we decree that Your Word stands and that according to Deut. 28:7, for all who revere You, You will make a way of escape from Afghanistan. God, we covet Your word and decree that You will cause the enemy to flee from them seven ways for every one way that You have allowed them to pursue our family, children and all innocent. Today, we decree Proverbs 19:9 over every liar in America’s Government and Military, that every false witness shall be punished and the liar caught in this time. Have mercy on them Lord, even as You tear down every wicked structures. Enough. Enough. Enough. Amen.

The state department of the United States can only have their hands tied by a terrorist regime in one way… when they agree to it beforehand. (for the most part, that’s called government corruption)
The sheer military superiority of our nation, over a terrorist group like the Taliban, is so overwhelming that it’s hard to imagine what type of cowardice and lunacy is running the state department. Then again, we are watching it daily, minute by minute.
We have precision weapons that can take out a single individual on any given day. We have so much information on the Taliban it’s mind-boggling.
So for the state department to say that is nothing more than another lie that they are trying to force feed our nation.

Dear Heavenly Father, I humbly ask for Your Favor over the right thinking leaders in our country and in the countries of our allies. Favor over every single person trapped by these men. Favor for us looking on and praying. Favor for the Christians who live in the region of Islam….YOUR DIVINE FAVOR over this whole event as it continues to unfold. I know You have EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING in YOUR POWERFUL GRIP. For us who love You, keep us in Your Hands Father, we want to remain in the hands of THE LIVING GOD.

For those who mock and despise all of us who love YOU, let them audibly hear “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, I will judge you.” For the Taliban, let them know “it is a TERRIBLE, DREADFUL,TERRIFYING, FEARFUL thing to fall into the hands of THE LIVING GOD.” Your Son and our Savior told His disciples to Fear You Alone, saying, “after we have been killed, You have the authority to throw us into hell. Yes, He said, I tell you, fear Him! “

I thank You Jesus for dying to give us access to Your Father. I thank You Holy Spirit for making my imperfect words perfect in The Lords hearing. And I thank You Father God for Your protection from every weapon the Taliban has, for Your Authority in us to refute EVERY ACCUSING TONGUE and YOUR TOTAL VINDICATION. I ask this for Your Glory. Amen

Hebrews 10:30-31 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,” and again, “The Lord will judge His people.” It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Luke 12:5. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!

Isaiah 54:17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their vindication is from Me,” declares the LORD.
