🇺🇦 What we thank God for:

• We thank God for those who minister kids. In particular, a regional conference for ministers working with children and teenagers was held in the Zhytomyr region. We thank God that such events serve to unite ministers around a common vision – preparing children and teenagers for a future that serves God.
• Among the state priorities in the field of education, the government named: preparing the child for the challenges of the dynamic 21st century; competitiveness in the labor market; the safety, interests and needs of a child.
• Ukraine has opened a new gas route that will strengthen the country’s energy system.
• Over the past 24 hours, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 2 tanks, 1 armored combat vehicle, and 64 vehicles.

⚡️ Threats remain:

• Russian troops attacked Ukraine with 60 strike drones. They carried out more than 50 strikes on the territory of one of the frontline communities in the Zaporizhia region. They struck the Dnipropetrovsk region with drones. They dropped an aerial bomb in the Sumy region and shelled Sumy.

• Russia is building power lines in the occupied southeast of Ukraine to connect the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant to its power grid.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• As God’s prophets, placed in our country during this extremely important historical period, we proclaim that the time of war has passed, that it is ending. Looking at the dry dead bones, we say that they will come to life. The Church of Christ is salt and light on this earth, so we proclaim first of all salvation in Christ and spread the Kingdom of God.

• We pray that the hearts of our soldiers, who are constantly in the territory of death, will open to God’s love and His salvation. May the seeds of faith sown earlier grow in their hearts. May support come from above.

• We pray for chaplains, for their service to our soldiers. That there will be no obstacles in their service. May the Lord fill them with strength, so that through them souls will be saved, bodies will be healed, and supernatural miracles will occur.

• We support in prayer those Ukrainians who are still in captivity, who may have hoped for an exchange, but did not receive the desired freedom. We pray that the Lord will help everyone in this difficult trial, help them to endure and return home. We also pray for the organization of new exchanges, for assistance in this matter from international partners.

• We pray for the containment of prices for food products and utilities, for the elimination of excessive pressure on business. For state support for the most vulnerable Ukrainians.

• We pray that God’s people, speaking out against the rulers of the darkness of this world, the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens, will be clothed in the full armor of God. That they will act not in their own strength and knowledge, but in His authority and power.

«Therefore let all the faithful pray to you while you may be found; surely the rising of the mighty waters will not reach them.»

There is a possibility that the Kremlin may prepare an attack on Kharkiv or Sumy, these are the cities that previously featured in threats during the negotiations in Istanbul. We pray for opportunities to stop these hostile attacks.

• Russia is again preparing for massive shelling of our cities, so let us pray in agreement for God’s protection, for opportunities to repel these attacks. The Lord is the rock of our salvation.

• We pray that the Church in Ukraine will be uncompromising with sin, that the words of Christ will be the basis of its position. That it will be the one who sheds light where there is darkness, who saves souls and awaits its Savior.

❤️ What we thank God for:

• A large Family Festival was held in Khmelnytskyi, culminating in the March for Family Values. The event brought together thousands of residents and guests of the city, emphasizing the fundamental role of the family for the restoration and future of Ukraine.

• Our military hit an important military-industrial complex in Russia.
• ​​France will equip Ukraine with six unmanned sapper robots.
• Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 1 tank, 2 armored combat vehicles, and 76 vehicles.

⚡️ Threats remain:

• In Zaporizhia region, a Russian drone hit a Ukrposhta vehicle. The occupiers dropped a high-explosive aerial bomb-500 in the Kharkiv region, causing civilian casualties. They attacked the Kherson region. A large-scale fire broke out at industrial facilities in Sumy, caused by an attack by Russian drones.
• Russian troops are actively transferring personnel to the border areas of the Kharkiv region. The occupiers are probably preparing for active assaults.
• A fire broke out at a thermal power plant in Bila Tserkva, Kyiv region.
• Russia is increasing its fleet of strategic bombers.
• 41% of state-owned enterprises in Ukraine have turned out to be unprofitable.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• We pray that the Lord will support us in this difficult struggle, so that we do not give up. Let praise to God resound in Ukraine, let prayers rise, because this is our spiritual weapon.

• The Russian occupiers have recently become very active and are actively advancing in the Sumy, Kharkiv, and Donetsk regions. We pray that the enemies will be stopped, that their criminal intentions will not be carried out. That they will not steal our territories.

• We pray for our soldiers. May the Lord become their strength, may those who have weakened rise, may hope fill the hearts that have lost it.

• We pray for the country’s economics in this difficult time. For wise management of finances, their direction truly to the needs of the country and people. For the suppression of corruption schemes, the embezzlement of the country’s funds. We pray for the cleansing of Ukraine.

• We pray for people who are left homeless and who do not have the means to secure their accommodation in other territories. Especially for the displaced from Sumy and Kharkiv regions, from where people are being evacuated. We pray that new opportunities will open up for them, that there will be those who will help and support them.

• Ukraine has become a place of spiritual battle and confrontation. Tension is also growing in the world, people are gripped by hopelessness and fear due to uncertainty and the worsening situation. But the Bible says that this must happen in the last days. So we pray that today’s events will not frighten the Church, but, on the contrary, strengthen it, and it will be able to take responsibility at such a time.

💛💙 What we thank God for:

• We thank God for the deep and thorough work of the Church in Ukraine with youth. Thus, in Bucha, Kyiv region, the youth congress “Voice” was held, which brought together over 500 participants for education, service, and charity. The motto of the congress – “Your voice will be heard” – reflects the organizers’ intention: to direct youth to active service to society and the spread of the Gospel.
• The interceptor drone, which Ukraine uses to combat enemy strike UAVs, shot down Shahed.
• The EU has imposed additional sanctions against three Russian military units for the use of chemical weapons in Ukraine.
• The United Kingdom has announced 100 new sanctions against Russia – restrictions applied to the country’s military, energy and financial sectors.
• Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 1 tank, 5 armored combat vehicles, 105 units of automotive equipment.

⚠️ Threats remain:

• Russian troops attacked Ukraine with 108 attack drones. Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Sumy, Zhytomyr, Kherson regions were affected. Attacks were carried out on civilians in a number of cities.
• Russia claims that there are no specific deadlines for preparing a memorandum with Ukraine regarding a possible future cessation of the war and a peace treaty.
• The Russians have begun installing two new types of warheads on long-range drones – both have increased weight from the standard 50 kg to 90 kg.
• The number of young people in Ukrainian society has decreased from 9.969 million in 2022 to 7.654 million as of 2024.
• Fake accounts of the first persons of the state have appeared on social networks.

🙏 Prayer needs:

• An IMF mission has arrived in Kyiv for the 8th review of the Extended Fund Facility with Ukraine. We pray for the work of the mission, for new agreements so that the fund’s financing truly has acceptable conditions. In particular, the NBU’s priority task remains to curb inflation. Therefore, measures to reduce inflationary price pressure, as well as opportunities for further currency liberalization, will be discussed.

• There is an urgent need to pray for our youth, because this is a prayer for the future of the country. The reality is not very encouraging: in particular, the share of young refugees who seek to return from abroad decreased from 66% in 2023 to 32% in 2024. At the same time, the share of those who categorically do not want to return increased from 6% to 19%. But we do not look with physical eyes, but spiritually pave the way to solving this problem. In particular, so that our country is interesting and promising for young people, so that the right policy is already being implemented to establish contact with those outside Ukraine. After all, without proper integration, a generation may be formed that will no longer identify itself as part of Ukrainian society.

• We pray for a further decrease in the effectiveness and influence of anti-Ukrainian propaganda, which is actively promoted in the Russian information space. There is already a shift in this. In particular, the share of Russian citizens who consider Ukraine an enemy state in 2025 decreased to the minimum level since 2014. We pray that the veil will fall from the hearts of Russians, that insight and awareness of reality will come.

• We pray for the cleansing of the Church from impurities that are unpleasant to God. May that which prevents the manifestation of Christ and His power, be burned in the crucible of trials.

«This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.»

🌻 What we thank God for:

• An international strategic conference “Mission of Ukrainian Churches in the European Diaspora” was held in Warsaw, which brought together 24 participants from Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Lithuania, Moldova, Great Britain and the USA. The event brought together evangelical pastors, theologians, missionaries, educators and church leaders to jointly understand the calling of Ukrainian churches in new conditions after the forced displacement of millions of people due to the war.

‼️ Dear intercessors, we live in times when we have to fight not only with an external enemy, but also with an internal one. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has advocated the introduction of registered “partnerships” of homosexuals and other persons with sexual deviations in Ukraine. In addition, the Foreign Ministry supports the introduction of repressive practices against those Ukrainians whose behavior challenges LGBT ideology. We pray that Ukraine will not be defiled by this sin, as this will weaken its spiritual position. That such initiatives will not be approved and will not have further advancement.

• We pray for information protection and counteraction to the powerful Russian propaganda machine, which constantly spreads various narratives about Ukraine, its political situation and moods in society. For the competent development of communication between the leadership of our country and its citizens. That propaganda that seeks to manipulate people will be replaced by ideas and messages that contribute to unification and growth of trust in the country’s politicians and leaders.

• We pray for our defenders, for God’s support for everyone. For conversion to the Lord, for strong spirit and trust in God.

• We pray for the strengthening of the preaching of the Gospel in churches, for any help to the people of this world to be based on the Good News. So that along with material help and spiritual support, people hear from Christians about the main thing – the salvation of the eternal soul in Jesus Christ.

🙏 Prayer needs:

We ask for God’s wisdom to overcome the challenges facing our country.

• We pray for orphans. According to official data, almost 15 thousand children are waiting for adoption in Ukraine. For every child to receive love, support and a real home. For people’s hearts to open to such children. After all, adoption is not only a legal act, but also a spiritual testimony of mercy and responsibility in society.

• We pray for the filling of our churches and ourselves with God’s power, for the work of the Holy Spirit in our ministries, and for the people of this world to see Christ in us.

Let the Russians’ intentions to destroy Ukrainian literature and language in the occupied territory and impose their own be in vain.
  • We pray for Russia to be held accountable for various war crimes and atrocities it has committed in Ukraine. For support and assistance to Ukraine in this matter from other countries, in particular, in providing relevant information.
  • We pray for our soldiers. They are in dire need of support, including prayer. We ask God for His protection for them, for supernatural strength for spirit and body.
  • We pray for wisdom for our military leadership. That they may make wise decisions that are balanced and justified. That commanders on the front lines value the life of every soldier.
  • We pray for the expansion of cooperation between the Church and state institutions in the field of spiritual support for the Ukrainian military and service to the most vulnerable and unprotected members of our society.

  • We pray that in this thick darkness the light of the Church of Christ may shine brightly, that it may be the loud voice of God. May this light shine, may this voice be heard everywhere. May people turn to the Lord and come out of the slavery of sin.

  • The government approved a $3 billion agreement with Japan. The money will be provided by revenues from frozen Russian assets and directed to priority budget expenditures, reconstruction and development of Ukraine.

  • A “time capsule” was laid in the foundation of the new building of the Spiritual Center in one of the units of the National Guard in the Kyiv region. All those present, together with representatives of the church prayed so that people could come to God, know Him and receive spiritual and mental comfort in this Spiritual Center.
  • The annual conference “Restoration for Ministry” was held in Kyiv for volunteers and chaplains. God’s servants are also exhausted, and if they are not restored, they will not be able to serve. So it was at the same time both training and exchange of experience and spiritual inspiration.
  • The government did not change electricity tariffs for the population until October, 31 of this year.
  • Ukraine will launch a new program to support displaced persons. The focus of the new government program is housing, services and entrepreneurship for IDPs and the preservation of their local identity.
  • Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed 5 tanks, 14 units of armored combat vehicles, 140 units of automotive equipment.

🙏 Prayer needs:

  • We pray that Ukraine has its refuge in the mighty Name of Jesus. God is the cover and protector of our country, in whom we place our hope.
  • We pray for the radical changes in our country, which it desperately needs. For the creation of new churches as one of the ways to counteract evil, for the emergence of leaders who would contribute to these positive changes in Ukraine.
  • We pray for our soldiers, for every precious soul for whom Jesus paid the price with His blood. That they would accept the gift of salvation, that they would come under God’s protection.
  • We pray for the country’s leaders, regional heads, so that their efforts are directed at finding a way out of critical situations, at how to help people.

‼️ In addition to other threats, the threat of default again looms over Ukraine. It became known that Ukraine was unable to reach an agreement with creditors and must pay approximately $600 million in May. The Ministry of Finance offered investors to restructure the debt in the amount of $3.2 billion, but so far the negotiations have not been successful. There is a need to pray for a compromise option to be agreed with investors, for which there is still at least a month.

  • We pray that churches in Ukraine will be filled, that testimonies about the power of God’s Word and prayer will sound. May the Lord turn what the enemy of human souls uses in our country for evil for good, and a spiritual awakening will take place in Ukraine.

  • The wonderful liberation of our defenders! Ukrainian reconnaissance drone operators discovered a group of Russian occupiers who had captured three Ukrainian soldiers. Coordinated actions and precise drops of Ukrainian drones forced the enemy to flee and leave the prisoners. Then, with the help of drones, our fighters were able to be led to safe positions.
  • It was possible to return four more children from the occupied Kherson region. Thank God for each returned child.
  • Ukrainian Naftogaz signed an agreement to raise 410 million euros for the urgent purchase of 1 billion cubic meters of gas.

  • The occupiers are accumulating reserves near Belovody in the Sumy region and continue to put pressure on our positions. They captured the village of Nadiivka, located in the Pokrovsk district of the Donetsk region.

That this and other misconceptions will not become the main ones in making fateful decisions.
  • We pray for the formation of a strong Ukrainian army, for its technological equipment in accordance with international standards, as well as for a high level of qualification of the military.
  • We pray that under the cover of war in our country, various perverted ideas that contradict our national mentality and Christian values are not spread. That those forces that are trying to introduce various abominations into our public life are deprived of influence, that the doors of opportunity are closed for them.
  • We pray for our brothers and sisters in the occupied territories. In particular, there is information that in the occupied Kherson region, Russian security forces have begun repressions against Ukrainian priests due to the alleged “insufficient support” of the Russian army. We pray for God’s protection for them, for steadfastness and loyalty to God.
  • The war has destroyed many destinies, wounded and broken hearts. Let us pray for these people, that God’s love may free them from pain and tragic memories, that it may heal and fill them with meaning to live on. May the Lord send His messengers to them, who would bring them Good News, help them to be filled with His Word and His Spirit.

  • Russia continues to recruit foreign mercenaries for the war against Ukraine. Volunteers agree to sign contracts for money and the chance of obtaining Russian citizenship.

🌻 What we thank God for:

  • We thank God for His Word which sustains us in the most difficult circumstances and gives us hope. “…they will look to the earth, and behold, sorrow and gloom and thick darkness. But the gloom and darkness will disperse. And there will be no more darkness in the land of sorrow.” (Isaiah 8:22, 23)

  • Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have destroyed 3 tanks, 5 armored combat vehicles, and 134 units of automotive equipment.

 

🔥 Threats remain:

  • Russian aggressors launched 70 missiles and 145 drones of various types over Ukraine. In particular, they launched Caliber cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and shaheeds over the capital. They struck Poltava, Dnipro, and Kharkiv. They shelled Khmelnytskyi and attacked Pavlograd, Dnipropetrovsk region.
  • Russian troops are using Iskander ballistic missiles and North Korean cluster warheads over Ukraine, which is leading to mass civilian casualties.

🙏 Prayer needs:

  • 💔 Tomorrow in Kyiv was declared a Day of Mourning for the victims of the Russian attack. New deaths, many wounded, numerous destructions… It is very painful to see all this, to experience it, to be a living witness of tragedies. We pray for those people who are injured, who have lost their relatives and friends. May the Lord help us all get through these difficult trials.
  • We pray for the rescuers, who are almost the first to arrive at the scene of the tragedy. Who, in addition to heavy physical exertion, are faced with pain, death, and suffering. And this is additional psychological pressure. May they be strengthened by God, may their souls be warmed by His love.
  • We pray for the war to stop, for the bloodshed to stop in Ukraine. May those who seek to continue this slaughter be deprived of strength. Among other things, with each year of the war in Ukraine, the demographic situation worsens. Low birth rates and high mortality are causing new demographic losses to our country. Scientists note that the longer the war continues, the greater these losses will become, and forced Ukrainian migrants will postpone the moment of returning home.

  • Russian invaders attacked the residential sector of Zaporizhia with guided aerial bombs. Dropped aerial bombs on the Kharkiv region, struck the Kherson region and carried out a massive drone attack on Odessa and Kharkiv.
  • Russian troops continue to strengthen their military presence in occupied Mariupol: two military bases have appeared there.
  • The Russians have increased the number of Calibers on submarines from four to six.
  • The UN has stated that despite the Kremlin’s 30-hour “Easter pause,” hostilities between Russia and Ukraine have not stopped.
  • Ukraine has lost half of its child population as a result of the war.

 

🙏 Prayer needs:

  • We pray for our people, for our unity despite the attempts of various political forces to divide us. We pray that peace and respect for the dignity of every person will reign in our society, so that everyone will recognize their value in Jesus Christ.
  • A new round of negotiations between Ukraine, the United States, Great Britain, France, and Germany will take place in London regarding a possible agreement with Russia to end the war. We pray for the effectiveness of these negotiations. May the Lord guide the hearts of the participants in the meeting, as well as those behind them. We pray for the fulfillment of God’s will in Ukraine.
  • We pray for the growth of business activity and economic indicators in Ukraine, for the reduction of security risks for business, the restoration of the labor market. For financial support for business.
  • We pray for God’s protection over our soldiers. For wisdom for commanders. We pray for the president, the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the heads of law enforcement agencies. May all their actions be coordinated and balanced.
  • We pray for veterans, for opportunities for their employment when they return to civilian life. For their adaptation and socialization. May the Lord help everyone find themselves in new conditions, especially those who have become limitedly able to work.
  • We pray for the growth of influential spiritual leaders who, obeying Christ first and foremost and not seeking their own, would lead and serve people in the difficult conditions of global changes. For balance in these ministries, for understanding the time in which we live, for belonging in everything to Christ, and not to this world.

1153rd Day of Intercession for Ukraine!

🙏🙏🙏

🛡 Prayer Shield of the Intercessors of Ukraine

 

💛💙 What we thank God for:

  • We thank God that the Church is the defender of the interests of ordinary people, for the cooperation of the Church with various public organizations, as well as representatives of the authorities for the sake of serving Ukrainians who are currently going through difficult times and need all kinds of help. Thank God for the open opportunities to proclaim the Good News.
  • Our soldiers thwarted the Russian offensive in Sumy region.
  • A team of volunteers from Smila made another trip to the east of Ukraine to serve hot meals to Ukrainian defenders. The main goal was not just to feed them, but to let them feel home warmth, sincere care and support and to tell about God’s love.
  • A small breakthrough occurred in the Pokrovsk direction, when the Armed Forces of Ukraine recaptured the village of Kotlyne. Russian aggressors are retreating from the western outskirts of Pokrovsk.
  • Over the past day, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed 2 tanks, 2 armored combat vehicles, and 50 units of automotive equipment.

 

🔥 Threats remain:

  • Russian occupation forces continue shelling the Sumy and Kharkiv regions with guided aerial bombs. They attacked Ukraine with three missiles, including “Onyx”, and almost 100 drones. They attacked Mykolaiv and Kherson.
  • Russia is setting up “anti-drone corridors” on the front. These corridors are roads that the enemy covers with nets so that equipment can move there and Ukrainian drones cannot target it.
  • The Russian military continues to keep the Kalibr cruise missile carrier in the Black Sea. There is a risk of a missile strike on the territory of Ukraine.
  • The Russian government is militarizing its society to justify the invasion of Ukraine and, probably, setting it up for a possible future protracted conflict with NATO.

 

🙏 Prayer needs:

  • We pray for an end to the war, for the success of negotiations at all levels to establish peace in Ukraine. We pray that the enemies will not succeed in tearing our country apart, but that the Lord will preserve it.
  • We bless our soldiers. We pray for the preservation of lives, for supernatural miracles of protection, healing, and the conversion of souls to Christ.
  • We pray for the prevention of the collapse of our economy, as well as for the prevention of the depreciation of our national currency. On support for small and medium-sized businesses, rational use of funds from the state budget
  • We pray for the return of our Ukrainians – deportees, prisoners of war and civilians in captivity, as well as those who left their homeland because of the war. May the Lord help gather Ukrainians, help those in captivity to survive. We pray that the Lord will save our people from destruction.
  • We pray for the mental health of Ukrainians. For timely assistance to those who have experienced stress. For people to find peace and comfort in Christ.
  • We pray for people remaining in frontline cities and villages. For their protection, especially children. For the provision of state volunteer, and spiritual support.
  • We pray for the unity of the Church in Ukraine, that it may announce God’s Truth, be a strong and influential voice for people, that it may have answers to the questions that arise today, and that it may be able to effectively serve and help.

 

«But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.»

🛡 Prayer Shield of the Intercessors of Ukraine

 

Christ is Risen!

 

❤️ What we thank God for:

  • We are thankful for Christ’s sacrifice of redemption and the Resurrection. Life has conquered death! Thank God for the grace given to all people, for the light that no darkness can embrace. Thank God for the victory over sin.
  • The Marathon of Fasting and Prayer continues. The people of God pray, holding spiritual positions. The Khmelnytskyi region passed the baton to the Rivne region.
  • Russian troops in the Pokrovsk direction are forced to retreat.
  • 277 defenders returned to Ukraine, 36 of them were released outside the formal exchange. Among those released is also a military woman who spent almost two years in captivity.

 

⚡️ Threats remain:

  • Russia is trying to create a general impression of a ceasefire, but in some places it does not abandon attempts to advance and inflict losses on Ukraine.
  • In the Toretsk direction, our soldiers fell into a Russian ambush.
  • Russia has intensified shelling on the front.

 

🙏 Prayer needs:

  • We pray for our people and country. Despite the bloody plans of the evil one, who acts through various people, we, as God’s people, who have power and authority in Christ, proclaim the fulfillment of God’s will on our land. We believe that He has the power to resurrect, we believe that dry bones will come to life. God is our resurrection and life.
  • On this day, we pray for those who hold the defense in the trenches, are in dugouts and on combat duty. May they be under God’s protection, may their hearts be filled with faith. May death not touch their souls, may they find life in Christ.
  • We pray for the higher military command. We pray for prudence and balance in every decision made. For the coordination of actions of all military units. We pray for the observance of the ceasefire by both sides, which was announced by Russia and supported by Ukraine.
  • A special request is for the prisoners. We thank God for everyone who has already received freedom and returned to their homeland. And we pray for those who are in Russian captivity. We ask that the Lord lead them through, that He preserve lives, that He touch hearts.
  • We pray for additional impetus to the economic development of Ukraine. For support for the real sector of the economy, i.e. strategically important industries, as well as small and medium-sized businesses.
  • We pray that God will count us – those who believe in Him – worthy of His calling and that by His power He will help us to realize every good intention and every good work, so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in us.

 

«…Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive? He isn’t here! HE IS RISEN from the dead!..”

Where is IFA’s stance regarding the clear moral departure of President Trump, VP Vance and the WH administration’s response to Russia’s killing, stealing and destruction of Ukraine? Why are so many Christians in USA churches going along with the evil narrative that Ukraine and President Zelensky do not want peace and don’t want to stop fighting. Have our hearts and minds become so calloused we no longer discern good from evil? Is the American church so indifferent that we can stand with President Trump unjust threats and intimidation towards Ukraine (while favoring Putin) and say “It’s not our war” let’s just walk away no more help to Ukraine, knowing full well the consequences if Ukraine were overrun by Russia? Why is the church in America afraid to tell the king that he is wearing no clothes?
Christians we cannot win a war you don’t know you are in. Ukraine is in a physical war for their freedom against evil. That same spiritual enemy in Ukraine is at war in the United States to blind, enslave and destroy every person. Lord wake up your church especially in America to know we are at war and pray for biblical change and rise up our voices and tears to you as we cry for justice and mercy and righteousness to prevail. Lord Jesus we pray for the many lying tongs promoting pro Kremlin evil propaganda to be bound. We pray for President Trump and his Team that their hearts will turn away from favoring Putin and Russia and stop the unjust threats towards President Zelensky and Ukraine. That President Trump will turn to favor and work toward a righteous, just and lasting peace for Ukraine. We pray for the American people especially your church in America to support their Christian brothers and sisters in Ukraine and to support Ukrainian’s brave fight for freedom and independence. The same freedom we enjoy here in America buy your grace and the blood of the soldiers who gave their lives. In Jesus Name

Having attended a very large rally here in Boston supporting Ukraine, I was really upset that everyone was shouting (in the Ukrainian language) glory to Ukraine . I realize that they honestly don’t know what they are saying – because all glory belongs to God and He is the only one who can stop this war. Psalm 46:9&10. Please pray that the Ukraine learns that only God can stop this war and ALL glory belongs to God!!

ABBA Father, We ask for this war to stop in Jesus’ name. We pray for the families that are separated in other countries to brought back to their loved one and the families to be reunited. You see there pain and tears with much sufferings. Please have mercy and set the captives free. Lord your word tells us that where your Spirit is, there is liberty; so we kindly ask for you to liberate your people today and set them free to love their families again.
Protect those that at war and let them live and not die to glorify your precious name. Amen!

Lord Jesus we pray for the many lying tongs promoting pro Kremlin propaganda to be bound. We pray for President Trump and his Team that their hearts will turn away from favoring Putin and Russia and turn to favor and work toward a righteous, just and lasting peace for Ukraine. We pray for the American people especially your church in America to support their Christian brothers and sisters in Ukraine and to support Ukrainian’s brave fight for freedom and independence. We pray for President Zalensky for wisdom and strength negotiating. We pray against the bloodthirsty spirit manipulating Putin and Russia to invade their neighbor. Bring an end to the killing, stealing and destroying. We pray for Russia to repent, that their plans and the gates of hell will not prevail. We pray for the safety of all civilians especially your church in Ukraine and the brave soldiers fighting on the front lines. Bring a sift end to this tragic unjust war in Jesus name.

I think that it is with their attitude to Ukraine that the heart of MAGA is exposed.

Whenever someone posts slander against Ukraine’s leaders, never mind that they give no proof, there are lots of ‘likes’. Whenever someone posts truth and proves it, there is only silence.

In Luke 7:31-32 Jesus said “To what, then, can I compare the people of this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to each other: “We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not cry.”

MAGA only responds if someone plays the narrative they want to hear.

With world events, we have to hit a reset button and consider that event on its own terms. The Ukraine war is not the Iraq war. In the Iraq war, we went in uninvited to free a country from oppression and the people turned on each other. Ukraine was invaded and against all odds fought back and with fewer arms and soldiers pushed Russia back. To continue the momentum, they needed weapons. That is all they asked for, not soldiers but weapons, and MAGA held up shipments and in the meantime, Russia advanced, the best Ukraine soldiers as well as civilians. There is good reason to believe that the reason the Ukrainians are in the situation they are now is because of MAGA.

To everyone else, MAGA appears self-righteous and without empathy.

We claim we gave them $70 billion worth of weapons. Actually, when you take into account depreciation, the weapons were only worth $12 billion but congress likes to get as much credit as it can, so they evaluated the weapons based on replacement costs. It is as though someone who sold cars gave a member of their church a used car worth $7,000 and then bragged to everyone that he gave them a $40,000 car because that was what he would spend to replace it. And then when he actually bought another car, claimed the $40,000 again, so he got credit for spending $80,000. The more recent expenditures by congress was money actually spent replacing the weapons, most of which was spent in the United States. So, it is as though the car dealer claimed $80,000 was spent with at least $35,000 being given to a relative to build the car.

I am reposting this because it was too far down in the comments to make any difference, but the repeated lies appearing in IFA comments needs to end. These are the facts: ‘Kyiv International Institute of Sociology (KIIS): A March 2025 poll found that 67% of Ukrainians trusted Zelensky, up from 57% in February. This increase followed a public dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump, which researchers believe unified Ukrainian society against external criticism. A later poll in March showed trust rising further to 69%, with only 28% expressing distrust.

Ipsos Survey for The Economist: Conducted in March 2025, this poll revealed over 70% of Ukrainians approve of Zelensky’s performance, with 80% affirming his legitimacy as president.’

Many of your right-wing news sources are not reliable.

    Yet another poll: Rating Group Ukraine: In early 2025, a poll reported that 65% of Ukrainians trusted Zelensky, with attitudes improving for the first time since Russia’s full-scale invasion began in February 2022.

    Zelensky has more support than Trump does! Trump won by just 2% of the popular vote with many voting for him as the lesser of two evils. More recent pos suggest, he is losing ground.

Lord Jesus, please have mercy on the people of Ukraine. Provide safe homes for them. Provide good foods for them. Provide safe jobs for them. Provide houses of worship where they can praise You and thank You for all You have done. Please remove that spoiled brat, Zelenskyy, who has lined the pockets of our worst enemies. Take him down please, Father God, for all the corruption and all the blood of innocents that is on his hands. Please set up quickly, a righteous ruler in Ukraine who will do Your will and be a good leader of the people who live in that country. Your Word promises these good things for the oppressed peoples. Pvbs 28:15 and Jer 23:1-4 I claim these promises of Yours for the Ukrainian people but I declare and decree destruction for the evil and greedy Zelenskyy, in Jesus’s Name, Amen!

    Lord, silence the lies that are being propagated through social media. Silence the lies about Zelensky because it does not honor you for Christians to be the source of lies. Zelensky is not a perfect person but is trying the best he can to represent his people.

    Repeating unproven slander is an abomination before God. Other than repeating the unproven claims by an unethical reporter like Tucker Carlson (who has not proven his claims), what proof do you have??? You have photographs of bank records showing that Zelensky has ‘lied his pockets’? Crossed verified with eyewitness accounts of reliable and non-biased witnesses, crossed verified with photograph evidence???? I am assuming that given the serious nature of your claims that you were careful to make sure that you had as many as fifteen sources and, of course, gave Zelensky the opportunity to respond to those claims???????

    When Zelensky represents his people, he dresses simply. When he visits the United States and Europe, he is followed by hordes of reporters. There is no evidence of ‘shopping trips.’ When in Ukraine, he is in hiding and moving constantly in order to avoid groups sent by Russia to assassinate him. For this reason, he cannot live with his family. He cannot have a ‘home’ as it would be immediately targeted. He makes repeated trips to the front, placing himself in danger (photographs, videos and eyewitnesses). Polls taken by professional organizations and remarks make to the press which is actually in Ukraine (not reporting from Maine) indicate that Ukrainians support him (European and American press). He won his election in 2019 with 73% of the vote (this is well documented and reported in the press at the time that it occurred which was before the Russian invasion).

A quote from someone in the Kherson region: “Surrendering Kherson to secure peace in Ukraine is inconceivable, Mr. Lapin says: “This is our land, we were born there, and we live there, and we will stand there to the end.” Mr. Sivak adds that Russian “occupation itself is a prison and a concentration camp.” If Ukraine is forced to surrender these four territories, “what will happen there” is “not to be described in words.”’ wsj

Lord, I pray for the moral decline in the leadership of this country and in some parts of the church that would cause them to form a convent with an evil dictator! Break their self-defection! If they will not repeat, remove them from places of influence and power!

After turning down Trump’s cease fire, Russia captured Sudzha. The Russians bragged about captured Ukrainian soldiers in the process. There are videos circulating on social media showing Russian soldier’s executing unarmed Ukrainian soldiers.

Lord, open the eyes of MAGA How can the Ukrainians enter into a peace agreement with someone who has broken agreements with them repeatedly and who slaughters unarmed civilians and soldiers!

Lord, silence the Russia propaganda that has taken over in conservative social media! Let truth stand against lies! Russia started the war! Zelensky is not a puppet! He has the support of his people as Ukrainian polls have shown! Frustrate Russia’s attempts to manipulate Trump and social media! Frustrate their plans to create an empire! Hep Europe stand up to Putin! Drive the Russians from Ukrainian land! Return the kidnapped children to their families!

Let us pray that Zelensky will negotiate terms for peace. This might have already happened if it had not been for interference from the United States and Great Britain. Many needless deaths. Pray for the Lord’s mercy on those who have encouraged this war.
