I Prayed have prayed
Lord, help us seek You wholly. Work in us in any way You see fit. Show us Your will for our lives and our nation.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

At IFA we are so blessed when intercessors share what the Lord is speaking to you. This August we are feeling a sense of momentousness, as we have filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court, expressing clearly the truth that abortion is a great evil and that the Supreme Court has erred for decades in their rulings. Sign our prayer and read the brief at appealingforlife.com. We share this message from intercessor Dr. Joni because it resonated with us. What do you think? What has the Lord been speaking to you? Please share in the comments.

1.The wheat is being sifted and it might feel like walking on troubled waters but stand firm knowing the One who walks on water stands with you.

2. Whatever the enemy has been using against you for evil, God will turn around for good. The month of August will be a month of greater manifestations of the move of the Father.

3. August will also be a month where God will bring the hidden things out to light. But, just like the Pharisees bribed the soldiers to spread false information about Jesus’ body, the media or various agencies will try to distort the truth. Don’t lose heart when it happens.

4. August will also be a month where you will begin to see sparks of revival here and there in various churches, home groups, and prayer houses. They will begin to see unusual signs and miracles.

5. It also aches my heart as I discern wolves among sheep. Some people who seemed to love Jesus and were looked up to will begin to shed their true colors.

6. The enemy may camp like the Midianities against the seemingly powerless house of Israel but right now somewhere God is raising up Gideon and his mighty 300 men( intercessors) to conquer them.

7. A financial outpouring will take place soon, for I see a heavenly portal of abundance heaven opened over IFA.

8. It is also going to be a season where God will release divine strategies. It is very important to seek Him before every battle like David. You must know your battle is not against flesh and blood.

I hope this blesses you. I am so grateful and proud of every single one of you at IFA, men and women of valor and courage who are the reason to keep the lamp of God burning.

What do you think? What has the Lord been speaking to you?

In the process of repenting from our constant sin, we should not add more sin by injecting ourselves with poison, in an attempt to appease an angry lost world, in the obvious light of doing something that will not protect us from anything but will cause us irreparable harm

when I pray that Our Father in Heaven would work in us in any way He sees fit- I know for an absolute fact that He would not cause us to inject ourselves with a poisonous satanic concoction that causes illness, does not protect from any “virus”, or any other sickness, and ultimately morphs humans into some type of non human creature. The term for what these “beings” will ultimately be is “Transhumanism”..it is ghastly, satanic, and gruesome. These people’s souls will be lost for eternity. Remember when Galileo invited the church to “look through the telescope”, to witness for themselves that the planets orbited the sun, and not the inverse as popularly thought for so long.. their response was, they “did not want to look through the microscope”. They did not want to see the obvious truth in front of them, that God gave them brains to use, and to see and reason with. People,.. Look through the telescope

Thank you for the encouragement. The body of Christ needs it right now. I believe that many of us are tired but we know we must continue on. I have found that resting in Christ doesn’t mean I won’t be tired or that I won’t feel like giving up. It simply means I must exercise faith and trust to rest in the truth that his word is his promise and we must continue to believe it will be fulfilled before us. He is and always will honor his word. He is and will always be the “great I Am”.

The Lord is saying to me:
Notice the things that change and
notice the things that change not.
He says that even though we don’t
want things to change sometimes
(as we are comfortable there) it is
to His glory that we let go of that
comfort and seek the Comforter.
Really, it is hard to put into words
all that He is saying. There is a steady,
constant peace that He provides.
I lifted up each intercessor today to the
Lord and I thank Him for them and their
faith in Him. Thank you IFA for all you do.
Philippians 4:8 comes to mind:
“Whatever is true” Do we need that now?
“Whatever is worthy of reverence” Do we need
that now? “Whatever is honorable and seemly,
just, pure, lovely and lovable, kind and winsome
and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence,
anything worthy of praise” Think on and weigh and
take account of these things – fix your minds on them.”
In Jesus mighty name. Amen.

The Lord showed me that I need to repent of my prayerlessness, so that’s what I have been doing. I’ve wasted too much of my life on unimportant matters, and I’ve been too focussed on many different things of the world, but only “one thing is needed”, and I will spend the rest of my life trying to do and pray his will as my first priority.

    Hi, Linda, totally agree “only one thing is needed”.

    But personally, often when I just “pray” I seem to go around in useless circles, til the Holy Spirit reminds me “Be quick to LISTEN, slow to speak”, and turns my focus back from my own fretting to the unchanging, Rock-solid Word of God.
    I think that’s what Mary was doing – just listening to Jesus – when He kindly rebuked Martha for her concern about why her sister was not helping her with “stuff,” don’t you?

    When I spend my time listening to His Word, searching through it, as searching for silver, in trying to see my next step, and when I try to match the news up with some similar event He has already told us about, or try to match it with His heart and character, it’s only then that I KNOW He hears my heart, and is encouraging me to press in.

    Thou shalt have no other Gods before Me.

I believe God has been speaking to me that Christians need to repent for divorcing and re-marrying. God says He hates divorce. (Mal. 2:14)I Cor. 7:10-11 says “To the married I give this charge (not I, but the Lord): The wife should not separate from her husband (but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband) and the husband should not divorce his wife, but be reconciled to her. Christians need to stand for their marriages. Father, we repent for Christians divorcing and re-marrying. Have mercy on our children in the name of Jesus. Open the eyes of Christians understanding. Help them to stand for their marriages and children. Devil, we bind you, we resist you, we break Your power against Christian marriages in Jesus name. Holy Spirit,heal broken hearts of Your people. Strengthen them with might in the mighty name of Jesus. We bind seducing spirits, harassing spirits. We loose the fire of God to burn up chaff. We loose the fire of God to break the power of deception. We repent for pastors and Christian leaders who have succumbed to lust. Father, forgive us as Your people who are called by name. Turn Christian hearts to their first wife or husband in Jesus name. Lord, when You return You will find faith in Jesus name. Nothing is impossible with you.

    Pamela, I think this is VERY important! Marriage, I believe was designed by God to be an earthly picture of His faithfulness, even when we are faithless. I love your prayer “Help them to stand for their marriages and children.” (especially among those of us called by His name)

    Those who are divorced and marry another are unavoidably open to many seducing spirits to help them justify their rebellion in doing what is right in their own eyes. And bitterness corrodes everyone it touches.

    But, thank God, a broken and contrite spirit He will not despise!

    Our God is the God of reconciliation, renewal, new beginnings, hope, healing, help, strength to seek and obey Him, and turning deserts into springs of water! He resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble!

    Jesus told us to follow Him – in His death, burial, and resurrection.

    To God alone be the glory!

I am a warrior, and the Lord provides me with my warring prayer points. I am accustomed to this format from Him, but about two weeks ago, He totally surprised me. He told me “It is done. I have heard the cries of my people and set the plans for the destruction of the insolent ones in motion. (II Kings 19:27-8) Come into agreement with my plans and PRAISE ME for the mighty works you are about to see.” My prayer times are dominated by adoring and singing praises to Him. He has me playing “O THE BLOOD” by Selah and “WORTHY IS THE LAMB” by Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir, over and over again, praising and adoring Him. Not sure HOW He plans to execute His plans, but it will be breathtaking, will give HIM all the glory and the earth will know it is HIM ALONE! HALLELUJAH TO THE LAMB!

Time is SHORT! Don’t waste time on trivia. Keep a very short list of offenses – get them settled quickly!
Satan is deceiving even some of the elect. Be careful who you trust.
Memorize more scripture. The more we know, the more we recognize and resist the deceiver. The more scripture we know, the stronger we will be to stand firm until the end, regardless of coming persecution.

I am hearing, “Testify.”
I mention Jesus whenever I can
and people respond. I ask strangers
if they want to pray with me and
many agree. My supervisor asked me
if I had my ID. I showed him the
card around my neck and then said,
“But this is my true identity,” and
showed the cross around my neck.
“Stand up for Christ.” That’s what
I’m hearing.

The American people have GOT to get past FEAR and CONTROL! I know that with all my heart! Pastors and Christians have GOT to wake up! We are on the verge of allowing godless, “woke,” cancel culture, Marxists, to control our country and our lives! We are not called to be fearful, but to be fearless, standing on Almighty God’s promises! Americans have been duped, lied to, deceived, and are walking in absolute fear! If we continue to walk in fear, we are like a “deer in the headlights.” People feel helpless, but WE ARE NOT! “If God be for us who can be against us!”
Shame on some pastors and some Christian leaders who are NOT giving their people the leadership they deserve! Christians know, like never before, “our help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.” We cannot depend on anyone else!
I thank God for each of you, because you are not allowing the enemy to deceive you! IFA are people of faith. It’s not that we aren’t concerned and alarmed, and even shaken to our knees sometimes, at what’s going on! We just know, where our help and our hope comes from! God bless each of you.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7 | KJV)

Then said he [Jesus] unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.(Luke 21:10-11 | KJV)

And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
(Luke 21:28 | KJV)

The Spirit of Elijah comes with the message of repentance. Repentance comes from a holy fear of God. The Elijah spirit displaces the orphan spirit. That spirit “will turning the hearts of the father to the children and the hearts of the children to the fathers, let He comes and strikes the earth with a curse”. Mal 4:6.

Great article. This confirms a lot of what I have sensed for quite awhile. Point #5 indicates exactly where a lot of our Christian leaders, and brothers in Christ stand. Truth be told, we don’t need their approval, or even participation in our endeavors in trusting the Lord, or to be His hands and feet. The Lord has revealed to His children who are part of His Holy Remnant, everything that we need to be used of Him. I am confident that He is at work behind the scenes. We need to not be deceived by what we see in the natural. This is a supernat-ural battle. The Lord is very skilled at fighting our battles for us. We don’t need any Christian leaders, or fellow Christians, to provide a stamp of their approval. We need to remain strong and firm. Perserverance is the most important quality that we need to be displaying. We can still love those around us, who have not yet been called to the intercession movement. It is the job of Holy Spirit to call Christians to any form of service. Our part in this, is to humbly obey. Thank You, Lord, for this opportunity to serve You in this capacity.

The Lord spoke to me and said… “SURRENDER IT ALL”He meant all, not 80%, not 90%. He said all 100%. “Keep moving forward and do not abort the mission. I will be with you wherever you go.”

Yesterday the Lord told me to “Get strong”. On this past Tuesday the Lord told me prophetically to build myself up with the word of God and to lay some things down that was not feeding my spirit. (I was watching lots of videos on YouTube to see where we are prophetically speaking, political videos , etc) . He also said to feed my spirit scriptures that were pertinent to what I deal with personally and also scriptures on hope.

In this time , I know that we have to know our authority in Christ to be able at a moment’s time to stand for ourselves and our loved ones to resist the enemy in sickness and other encroachments that the enemy would try to bring against us.

Also, on this past Tuesday, the lady who preaches on her ministry conference line that I am part of , shared that right now Deception has been loosed in a great way and is working with the sprit of offense . And that we are to guard against these spirits. She also shared that the Spirit of offense brings unforgiveness and to ask for God’s help if forgiving someone is hard for us to do .

Lord we know that a light shines brighter on a dark night. May YOUR LIGHT IN US SHINE BRIGHTER than it ever has as the darkness deepens all around us! May we not fear but be strong in you and speak forth your righteousness to our family, friends and those we encounter each day. IN LOVING ways! May their eyes be opened to the truth and may they join us in standing for truth, freedom and love for others!

Lord I pray specifically for the elderly in our land. Many of them are in Retirement facilities where they are not allowed freedom of visits from their loved ones’ and friends. Thank YOU for staying by their side, but we pray for a mass relief of freedoms for them across our nation!! Amen

The time is coming when we will say “Get your own oil.” Mt. 25. Rev 6:2 – the bow carried by the rider on the white horse…Greek word toxon from where we get toxin. The white horse is allegedly the good guys horse. Deception. The rider on this horse is not good.

Yesterday (Friday)I heard the Lord say to me be diligent to know the state of your flocks. Prov. 27:23. The rest of it says; And attend to your herds. I only heard the first part. We pray for our church we attend. Let’s take a look at our herds where we attend. We must discern, identify, root out the enemy spiritual speaking. We must be diligent to know to state of our flocks. We must come along side our Pastors, leaders bringing honor and glory to our Lord! When the church cleanses herself it brings stability His Kingdom on earth. Also I thank the Lord for IFA.

I think we can all admit in these last 2 years that there’s been a time or two where we have felt like “God left the building.” I know I have and yet I know He not only will not forsake us but He cannot forsake us. Recently I received a strong impression that was very comforting. God is priming the hearts of believers and unbelievers for revival as we pray, stand and do our part. Whether we are hearing or seeing it, people are watching evil and wickedness peaking in this nation and getting a clear taste of how destructive it really is. It will becoming a world full of fear and lawlessness and is affecting everyone life in a negative way. An awakening is in the making as people become desperate for answers and sources that will bring an end to all of it. It is happening now and God will be faithful to finish what he has started. Our mandate is to be aware of where he is at work in our lives and area of influence to catapult us into victory. We have so much to look forward to as we determine to fight the good fight of faith and not retreat. What a blessing to have IFA at such a time as this.

    Praise the Lord! Yes we must press in and contend earnestly for the faith as it says in Jude v.3. I see as evil is exposed that also exposes our reactions. We have been given authority in Christ Jesus to put the devil under our feet.The battle is the Lord’s amen. We pray, stand, a t on God’s word and results come!

I am so so thankful for ifa and pray with others here daily. You ask what I am hearing so just sharing my heart ——-my frequent prayer “ Lord, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, Lord not my will,, but Thy will be done”. I do not want to pray against our Lord’s prophetic will IF this is part of end times, no matter what I pray, believe, and resist our mighty wonderful Lord is in control!! Yet it is also true “we have not, because we ask not”. “ stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free and be not entangled again will the yoke of bondage “ Gal. 5:1

I was reading in Joel, 1:5-6
this reminds me of our current state of affairs under Biden. Even though this is about Israel, the lower kingdom, this can apply to the US spiritually. we may not openly sacrifice as they did in the old days, but we do, it is called another name. we hae idols as a nation. we have bronze and copper statues but they are displayed as historical artifacts, every one just as potent as in the days of old. this is a spiritual battle we are facing, because of the new Covenant we have in Jesus the Messiah
