I Prayed have prayed
Lord God, we pray for justice and we pray that this hearing's injustices would not be a precedent for our nation.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Where is justice in the impeachment hearing?

Is it justice that:

  • The man that “blew the whistle” cannot be questioned.
  • Rep. Adam Schiff, who colluded with the informant, also cannot be questioned. Additionally, he is in a completely compromised position leading the inquiry.
  • Republicans have to ask permission to question anyone and Schiff can deny them due process.
  • Republicans get a mere 5 minutes at the conclusion of a witness to pose a question unless Schiff determines he won’t let them.
  • The president does not get to speak up on his own behalf.
  • The president’s lawyer was denied access to the “witnesses.”
  • The “witnesses” were all interviewed behind closed doors so Democrats could craft what they wanted to say and throw out witnesses who didn’t say what they wanted. While there were Republicans on the Intelligence Committee, they were denied access to some of the testimonies.
  • VP Biden, and his son, Hunter, cannot be called to be questioned. And the video in which Biden implicates himself in bribery and “quid pro quo” by threatening the Ukrainians is ignored.
  • The new guidelines allow Jerry Nadler, head of the Judiciary Committee, to block President Trump’s lawyers from cross-examining witnesses.
  • Leading the witness and hearsay evidence, which are not allowed in a court of law, are encouraged in the proceedings.

Speaking about these last-minute new impeachment guidelines, Representative Tom Cole of Oklahoma, the top Republican of the Rules Committee stated, “This thing has been poisoned from the very beginning. Now, we are going to have rules presented to us at the last minute that we had nothing to do with. No negotiation. No input. Not even, ‘Hey, what would you like to see in this thing?’”

The way the Democratic leaders have written these guidelines sounds like a game of “Mother May I.” The Republicans must ask and wait to see if  Rep. Schiff will decide to allow them to participate. It is totally up to his discretion.

Is this just? Is this the way that the legal process normally works in our free society?

Oh Lord our Lord how majestic is Your name in all the earth and all Your works! Our nation has been guilty of casting You aside for our own pleasure, we have come to the end of it and are seeing the destruction coming for our folly. It is written in 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If My people, which are called by My name shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” We are here asking. You, oh Lord, have brought us a leader who is standing up against the enemies of our nation, he boldly proclaims Your name in full view of the nations, he has rightfully proclaimed Jerusalem to be Your holy city in Your holy land and is recognized by us as such, he has asked this nation for prayer, he has called elders together (righteous men and women) to lift him and his family for courage, leadership and protection. We humbly ask You to intervene again and to exposed those who are corrupt and will to bring down our nation for their benefit if not stopped. There is a heavenly war being waged against us, but I choose to be believe You have provided an army to fight for us and they are there just like they were for David when he took on Goliath, when they were there for Joshua as the walls of Jericho tumbled, when they held back the waters of the Red Sea for Moses and Your people fled Egypt. I thank You Father for providing us a way out of the mess we created. In Jesus holy, righteous name, our Savior. Amen

Psalm 83[a]
A song. A psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, do not remain silent;
do not turn a deaf ear,
do not stand aloof, O God.
2 See how your enemies growl,
how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they conspire against your people;
they plot against those you cherish.
4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,
so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
5 With one mind they plot together;
they form an alliance against you—
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
of Moab and the Hagrites,
7 Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,
Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
8 Even Assyria has joined them
to reinforce Lot’s descendants.
9 Do to them as you did to Midian,
as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
10 who perished at Endor and became like dung on the ground.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 who said, “Let us take possession
of the pasturelands of God.”
13 Make them like tumbleweed, my God,
like chaff before the wind.
14 As fire consumes the forest
or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15 so pursue them with your tempest
and terrify them with your storm.
16 Cover their faces with shame, Lord,
so that they will seek your name.
17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed;
may they perish in disgrace.
18 Let them know that you, whose name is the Lord—
that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.

O Almighty Lord our God, who sits enthroned over the flood as King forever (Psalms 29:10 NIV), who always works behind the scenes, whose word never return to Him empty but always accomplish what He desires
and achieves the purpose for which He sent it (Isaiah 55:11 NIV), we as Your children turn our eyes and hearts to You and cry out to You, fully trust in Your everlasting and living Word. Nothing is hidden from You Lord, just as You proclaim in Hebrews 4:13 “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. We pray Lord that You will disclose whatever is hidden in darkness. As Jesus says: There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made-known. What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs (Luke 12:2-3 NIV). Sovereign Lord, we pray for Your reign over this whole impeachment farce. We pray for Your humility to be with President Trump whom You have called and placed in the white house for our nation at such a time as this so that he will be lifted up by You above all his attackers. We pray for Your justice to be displayed on those who have haughty eyes and proud heart against You and Your people that they will be humiliated and put to shame for what they’ve done. Help us O Lord to remember Jesus’ victory on the cross and fix our eyes on You and You alone. We’ll not give in to fear nor back off in this battle because Jesus is our Commander in Chief. He’ll surely lead those whom keep trusting in Him from victory to victory. In Jesus’ glorious name, amen 🙏

Father, we ask humbly that now You have awakened this remnant that the socialist dictatorial demonstration in this hearing will awaken the followers of the left to the trickery of the power elite in Congress. Help usA to be light in the darkness and not divide our country. May the hearings reflect righteousness AND justice from Your throne Father.

Donna,
We repent for all the atrocities that we’ve allowed to happen! Jezebel can’t stand repentance! We humble ourselves Lord and ask forgiveness for our sins and judgements and your word says to bless our enemies and then you will do what your word says and that is to heap coals on their heads. Oh that they would turn from their sins and bow their knees before it’s too late. Your word says that the later day reign will be greater than the former and that the glory of the Lord will flood the whole earth. Use us to spread hope where there is hopelessness. Cover D. Trump and the family and the righteous leaders and intercessors with your blood and keep us hid as You are our refuge and firm foundation and immovable rock. Amen

Psalm 1

Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the
Counsel of the ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of
Sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the
scornful;
But his delight is in the law
Of the LORD,
And in His law he
Meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the rivers of
water,
That bring forth it’s fruit in
its season,
Whose leaf shall not
wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.
The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which
the wind drives away.
Therefore the ungodly shall
not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the
congregation of the
righteous.
For the LORD knows the way
of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly
shall perish.

    Perfect perfect response to what’s happening to our government system and our president! I will use it to pray over the impeachment situation every time I think about it (which is far too often). God knows the way of the righteous, He knows the plans He has for this nation and it’s leadership, He knows the chaff that needs to be blown away! He is Lord, and we will not tremble at His enemy!

Those of us who love our country can see how terrible and wrong these proceedings are. Satan is laughing because it looks like he’s winning here. But we know the One Who is in control, and nothing can thwart His will or His ways. Father God, we ask that You come against this darkness, these lies, and the evil intents in the hearts of those who want to destroy our country. In the Name of Jesus and through the power of His shed blood on Calvary, we intercede for our President, for his family, and for others who are standing with him. May Your light penetrate and pierce the darkness, and may Your Truth prevail. Protect and watch over President Trump, the man You have placed as our President. Help us to remember that nothing is impossible for You, and that You are working. We praise You and thank You in advance, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

More than once, God tells us in His Word that those that dig a pit or lay snares will fall into their own traps.Thank you for the everlasting truth of Your Word.
We will not slack off in our efforts. Thank You Lord for mobilizing us by Your Holy Spirit. I’m reminded of an old Johnny Cash song, “ I Won’t Back Down” Guide us! Strengthen us! Give us your vision! You are the Lord of the Break-Through! Break through our enemies like the breaking through of Mighty Waters. Let your justice and truth roll in like a mighty flood.
, Lord I beseech you come quickly, we cry out to You. This is your nation, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Gratefully I decree… in Jesus name So be it!

Lord of all I lay this Nation that embraces lawlessness (no regard for human life,crimes, violence) and ask Your mercy and forgiveness for it’s sins. I pray for the Spirit of Truth over this Impeachment situation, over our Education Programs and schools and the ungodly media. Lord I pray that You as our Holy God would cleanse this Nation from sexual Immorality and bring cleansing from sin and restoration of Biblical Truths over it. Forgive us as a Church for our failures. Bring repentance and revival to the Church. May we rightly have understanding of Fear of You. You are all- consuming Fire, the only Plumb line. Remove racism Lord and please reconcile the people in this Nation as our Mediator. Thank you Father for Your will to be done over these requests. Amen

There are six things God hates, seven that are detestable to Him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community. (Prov. 6)

So Father, I pray for and proclaim the Opposite Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, to rise up in those who are defending the President and all he represents in godly humility and truthfulness, in the spirit of bringing healing to the nation and a restoration of its founding principles and calling, and in the unveiling of the wicked schemes in these shameful, unethical, show-trial inquiries and against every other demonic scheme plotted and being plotted against the President and against all those who love and appreciate this nation, and at its root, against God, Himself. In Jesus’s Name Above All Names, Amen.

“When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against him.” Isaiah 59:19 Father, the enemy is coming in like a flood. They are not going after a man who won an election. Rather, they are rebelling against the one upon whom You placed the mantle of leadership and that You placed in office for such a time as this to bring our nation back to You and Your ways. He is a gift to Your people, who stormed the gates of heaven with a 2 Chronicles 7:14 prayer wave before the last election. You placed Donald Trump in office so the rabble-rousers are not fighting against the president, but against YOU! We grieve over the ubiquitous deception in our nation and can scarcely believe the delusion that has gripped so many in the vain pursuit of impeachment. We already know that fighting against You is in vain. Psalm 2 asks: Why is the nation in an uproar, and the peoples devising a vain thing? The rulers counsel together against the Lord and His chosen one. He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them. Then He will speak to them in His anger and terrify them in His fury. Ask of Me and I will surely give you the nations as an inheritance, and the very ends of the earth as Your possession. Therefore we come before You, our Father in heaven, to ask for our nation. We ask that it would be Your possession. We ask that the USA would turn back to You and again become a God-fearing country. There is a war in the heavenliness against the USA. No man can stand against Your purposes. I Corinthians 1:20 “Where is the wise man? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?”
I Corinthians 3:19 “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, ‘He is the one who catches the wise in their craftiness’.” When those who are ungodly, yet arrogantly consider themselves wise, You know how to turn their evil intent back on themselves. Haman hung on the gallows he had built for righteous Mordecai. May we, Your people, praise You because You’ve “got this”. You will checkmate them just when they are thinking they are winning. You are the Almighty God and no one can stand against You. You know how to turn evil plotting on its head and how to protect Your people. You put Your mantle upon President Trump and how foolish of mere men to think they can unseat the one You chose! We wait upon You with expectant hearts and with fervent and earnest prayer. All glory to God! We praise You for what You will and are doing. Show Thyself mighty. Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord. Amen! So let it be done.

Rise up, O judge of the earth; repay the proud what they deserve! O Lord, how long shall the wicked exult? (from Ps.94)

God we look to you to whet your sword and restore justice to this land. We repent, of complacancy and complicity. We recognize that without you we have nothing, that the wicked will never relent or be satisfied. That us why we look to you and not to them and beg for mercy. Pour out your grace and your glory yet again on us, cleanse us from all presumption, sin, and pride and deliver us.

O Father, ABBA, You delight in turning impossible situations into victory for Your great glory. We stand in praise and trust of the awesome things that You are doing. You know the end from the beginning and bring good out of what looks irreparable to our finite vision.
Take our fears and frustrations with the unfair impeachment proceedings and bring justice to evil doers.
Grant President Trump the wisdom to understand it’s not him they are truly against but rather they stand in opposition to You. Fools! How you must laugh at them. Open their eyes and their hearts to see they rail in vain. In Jesus precious Name. Amen

At this point we need a miracle .
