I Prayed have prayed
Lord, we humble ourselves, seek Your face, and turn from our wicked ways on behalf of the people of East Palestine and all affected by the toxins released by the train derailment in early February.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

Charlie Shamp, a prophet and prayer intercessor, released a word he had received in November 2018 in which the Lord called for prayer to heal contaminated waterways. Shamp said he believes the call is linked to the crisis in East Palestine. Watch the interesting message Shamp had received more than 4 years ago.

Whether or not you believe that the Lord prophetically warned of the danger ahead, without a doubt we are called now to intercession.

As Betsy West, co-leader for IFA’s Pennsylvania prayer group, said, “...Intercessors all across the country, watch this. And I am asking you do not let this become the background of your intercession. This is ongoing. The land has been affected, the waterways has been affected, the wildlife is gone.”

I’m confused about the caution to test the prophetic word. Whether or not this word was about Ohio, they need our prayers. And our mighty God can heal the waters and the soil in Ohio just like he healed the bitter waters for the Israelites. I thank you Lord in advance for healing the land. I praise You, Lord, for there is nothing too hard for you! You are the same God who defeated the gods of Egypt and parted the Red Sea. When Your people left Egypt, there were none sick among them, so I pray for healing for everyone sick from this disaster. I also pray for justice for those responsible for this disaster, whether planned or unplanned, make them accountable. In Jesus mighty Name, I pray for restoration.

Father, l thank you that absolutely nothing is too hard for you. We come before you on behalf of East Palestine and reverse the devastating effects of the chemicals that were released from the train accident. Bring healing to the air, land, and water. We also pray that those who have been exposed to the chemicals will not be affected by it. I ask this in the mighty, majestic name of Jesus. Amen

This morning on rising I glanced over the IFA news headlines, committing them back to the Lord. Before reading them fully, I wanted to prepare my heart to hear His voice and put Him first in the day.
The day’s scripture included Amos 3: 7, Surely the Lord God does nothing Unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the prophets.
Today’s scripture included Amos 3:7, ” Surely the LORD God does nothing unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the Prophets. ”
I was marveling as I have heard this spoken before but never knew it was actually a scripture quote.
When I later read this East Palestine article, it powerfully connected and I will be meditating on Amos chapters 3-4. God not only prophesies disaster in judgment on the evil enemies of Israel, but on His own people called apart to Him from all nations. He proclaims judgements for their pride and ignoring of Him. He wants these disasters to turn His people back to doing what is right, to walk with Him. Yet while they suffer, they will watch that the horns and alters of the enemy will be cut off, cast down and brought to an end.
Let us pray for these things to come true here today.

Dear God, forgive us for our sin and turn our hearts to you. Bring to the surface what is hidden, and draw us humbly to you in prayer. Heal, comfort and restore hearts and bodies. Remind us to keep in prayer regarding this. Thank you Lord.

Well, all I can say is-, that it is more obvious than ever ..that we are backed into a corner -.and no one can clean this up -,except the Lord God Almighty -,and all we are left with- is expressing our faith in Him in prayer.. like someone said in one of the comments here-,this will spread to the Mississippi- and then of course who knows how far it will go. It is such an obvious weapon to poison us.
Lord God have mercy on us-,and send your Holy Spirit fire to burn through all the river ways and Wilderness areas ..and all the surrounding states around Ohio and Pennsylvania-, Lord-,to cleanse this poison..Lord- in the mighty name of Jesus ,..Amen

I pray with all my heart for a miraculous healing of the air, water and land of Palestine, OH and a reversal in the deleterious effect on the inhabitants of that entire area. By the stripes of Jesus we are healed and I declare this to be true for this area of the country. Amen

Yes, Father, purify the ground and the waters that have been contaminated by chemicals. Not just because of the derailment, but the chemical plants around the world that are risks… the water recycling systems and the chemicals used to recycle sewage water… Lord.. help!
In Yeshua’s Holy Name.
Yes and Amen.

I had the unfortunate opportunity to attend one of Charlie Shamp’s services. My husband and I had to walk out of his service. As he spoke, it was mostly about how great was and how others adored him. Very little of about God or Jesus. I was sickened and disappointed in him. I would not trust him in anything he claims or says.

    But did you and your husband spend any time praying for God to grant him repentance, (2 Timothy 2:25), and conviction to bring him to his knees in submission to God’s Will?
    Father, only You know the heart of a person. We can only go by what we hear coming from their mouth, and ask Holy Spirit for discernment to know whether to pay attention or to ignore.
    This man’s words may need to be ignored when he is puffing himself up, but the words about praying collectively are Biblical and to be headed.
    Your Word says there will be some who You will use who are not fully a part of The Body.
    Give us wisdom to discern who are Yours and who are not.
    Give us compassion to pray for those who are not, for a TRUE Holy Spirit conversion. For The Kingdoms sake.
    In Yeshua’s Holy Name.
    Yes and Amen.

    Nothing he said was against GOD or scripture! If GOD can use a donkey to speak, he can use anyone! He reminded us of the authority given unto us by GOD and by JESUS! We should command the waters and land to be cleansed because we have dominion over them! So I command the waters and the land to be cleansed and made whole immediately in JESUS NAME!

    Whether we agree with him or not, we are called to intercede for our waterways. What has happened has affected and will continue to affect hundreds of thousands. This water will reach the Mississippi, and the gulf. It is something only God can fix. The people and the animals- it is beyond description.

We already know these are not random acts. Chemtrails, Vaccines, All the things poisoning our air,land,see,water, animals,plants, and our bodies are controlled by the elite/powers to be and prayer and resistance might be the only thing to expose and delay the inevitable.

    I believe that Charlie Shemp has appeared on Elijah streams, and the program moderator and founder of that channel is named Steve Schultz. I know that he had a non-video online page before where people just interacted -,I believe through text and emails for quite a few years.. but he seems to have quite a list-,or roster of prophets that appear no-w on his Rumble Channel.. and he still has his older platform up’ that was in existence before videos.. so you can contact him there -I’m pretty sure.? if you go to his Rumble Channel in the description area below the channel ..there is information -,or just go to Elijahlist.com.. that is his original platform.. I know I sent him an email once through that.

We must always remember any battle we are facing was won when Jesus hung on the cross. I do believe we are dealing with demonic manifestations. I do believe that God gives us “prophetic words that may apply to us” sometimes years in advance, months, and days. God is helping us to know and understand that when A True Prophets speaks it is words aligned with His words, I do believe God gave us tools to use in Critical Warfare: we are in a battle and it is imperative that we walk in humility and yet boldness. God wants to expose and confront the false narrative of “political correctness” within the church and then we will have actualized authority to deal with it in the nation. I do believe God wants spiritual warfare to be taught properly when Prophetic words are spoken. In earlier years it was taught from the pulpits, not so much as the years have passed, I do think God wants us to be careful in that, it does not overpower our minds. The devil can and has used it as a way of turning off believers and they have a one mind focus of spiritual warfare and lives become unbalanced. The prophets place in the (5) fold ministry is important and essential when prophetic words are given, believers, and Christians have a responsibility to pull down the strongholds that will effect us. We must pray and ask God to show us direct our prayers and pay attention to what is surrounding our lives. The lifestyle that been immersed in many generations from the pulpits have changed dramatically, in many instances we forgot to live by Faith, the Faith words began to fade as the years have passed us by. I have had to ask forgiveness myself as I am now seeing and understanding that the lifestyle that has come about was not exactly as God planned for our lives. When you talk to others about a prophet’s role they look at you as if to say; what are you talking about! Living by Faith and understanding the (5) fold Ministry is hard, God has never told us it would be easy. “Hebrews 11:6
New International Version
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. Things are rough now and True Prophetic words are important, NOW more than ever, there are warnings, there are also positive words we must take these words and use the TOOLS God gave us and that is to pray, be strong, praise God, read His word, Luke :24-7 “Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures.” Luke : 24-44 God never intended for the prophets to be ignored as well as their words. “ Now He said to them, “These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.” My thought as believers is we must incorporate words that are prophetic messages, align those words with Gods words. “ I have also spoken to the prophets,
And I gave numerous visions,
And through the prophets I gave parables.” Father, I thank you for your words and how we are to pray and understand that there are still prophetic words given to us and that our prayers must be given unto you as guidance, as what we will be facing ahead of our lives. God I so humbly thank you as you keep showering us with your love and directions as we pray for everything you give us in your words. When I read Exodus again, I could place what happened back then correlated with us in 2019/2024. I thank you as eyes opened, as the prophets are helping us to see what is happening and is ahead if us. We must understand that “ Jesus already accomplished Victory over Satan, and we must start out with this foundation of our daily prayers and make the prophetic words as a part of our prayers as well, as we lay down our life for others in prayer.. God gave us a road map for our lives, we just forget to use it. 1:Corinthians-3::9 “For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building. “ God give us revelations to secure your Harvest, give us a hunger to pray more and incorporate Gods words and the prophets words that speak LIFE. Be blessed in Gods words as we pray. I call down prayer for all of the grounds and waters to be cleaned in E. Palestine . I ask in Jesus name. Remember the verse Exodus 15 where Moses threw in a piece of wood to make water good to drink. God directed this.

Wow! As I was listening to this man of GOD relay what GOD spoke to him in 2018, I am filled with renewed Hope! And Faith! Our GOD is GOD of the whole earth and didn’t he say whatever we asked in JESUS NAME we would have it? FATHER GOD it is in JESUS NAME that I command all of the waterways and land in East Palestine to be made whole and clean in JESUS MIGHTY NAME! Restore health to the people and livestock and fish and every creature in East Palestine, Ohio! Let the healthy waters abundantly be stocked with healthy fish and sea creatures, and let the healthy land be stocked with healthy new foxes and chickens and dogs and cats, and every other animal on that land! Let the healthy fields be filled with healthy produce and hay and wheat! Thank YOU FATHER GOD for putting us in remembrance OF WHO YOU ARE! ALL POWERFUL! ALL HOLY! OUR GOD! HALLELUJAH!

Father, my soul agonizes over this disaster. Just as the waterway is polluted, a picture of the United States, so the country is polluted because the people of the U.S. have turned away from the ways of our God. Lord, we repent. Lord, let the cleansing of this waterway and the land be a sign of the cleansing of the entire country as You turn our hearts back again to You and Your ways. Purge the land of filth, idolatry, evil. Lord, protect the people of East Palestine. Lord, cleanse the water there and the land. Bring renewal. Bring life to the polluted city. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Repent and step away from the Judgement seat. God trains, raises and judges his prophets, not you. He specifically says not to touch his anointed. Your opinion doesn’t matter. Gods word is all that matters. I pray that He turns your heart!

Well, I pray you meet a true prophet because nowhere in the bible it says the gifts ended. Don’t judge all by some.
May the Lord heal this area and protect the people there. Gods angels come and make it a place where His presence dwells. Satan is wrecking havoc everywhere for the days are evil.

Then the men of the city said to Elisha, “Please notice, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees; but the water is bad, and the ground barren.” And he said, “Bring me a new bowl, and put salt in it.” So they brought it to him. Then he went out to the source of the water, and cast in the salt there, and said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘I have healed this water; from it there shall be no more death or barrenness.’ ” So the water remains healed to this day, according to the word of Elisha which he spoke. 2 Kings 2:19-22 NKJV
FATHER, as Elisha administered a salt cleansing from a new bowl to cleanse the contaminated water, by the power of HOLY SPIRIT, I speak a spiritual salt cleansing from a new bowl over these waterways and the land that has been infected by chemical spills. Consume the chemical contamination HOLY SPIRIT and Cleansing Angels do a clean sweep on the beds and throughout the waterways. Mop up all of the chemical spillage. Not one speck is left—NO NOT ONE! At the same time, cleanse the lungs of every person living within the areas. Thank You HOLY SPIRIT, You are there to purify the water, the land, the people and the air they breathe. Heal the water and the land LORD JESUS; heal the hearts of man. I declare a complete divine restoration of the water, land and man in Palestine, Ohio including all the surrounding areas. Divine reversal! All in JESUS Mighty Name, AMEN.

Prophets are not for today, what we have now are watchmen, small w, the focus on Christ, whereas Prophets were calling nations to repentance and lived very holy lives. Todays so called Prophets are either charlatans, or watchmen misusing their gifts.

    Steve, I am concerned you are missing a major revelation of God for our present age. I am fully given over to judging prophecy and am aware that there is much “static” in the spiritual air over specific prophecies and prophecy in general. Please do not draw conclusions from your personal experience or the huge gaffs that occurred during the 2020 election cycle. I love you in the Lord and am concerned because when one part of the Body suffers, we all suffer,

    Steve Pugh,, Show me that in scripture! Let GOD be true and every man a liar! Bible interprets Bible! Show me in scripture that prophets are replaced with watchmen when both are in GOD’S WORD at the same time, but now one replaced the other? Not True! But back it up with scripture! FATHER GOD please help us to rightly divide the WORD of TRUTH! YOUR WORD is TRUTH! In JESUS NAME! Amen!
