The battle lines are drawn as the federal government continues their effort to usurp the power of the states. We also feel the affects as they ignore how they have pushed our nation into recession.
It’s been a long time since most of us were in civics class. Even then I don’t remember being taught that state governments were to have more power than the federal government. But according to our Constitution, that is the way it is set up. Yet it has been a long time since it operated that way.
Over the years, power which was to be held by our state governments, has been whittled away by the federal government as they have offered financial bribes or positions to governors and mayors in return for their authority. Now Biden has demanded Congress create legislation to codify laws. Simply put it means they work to create federal laws that become the law of the land despite what a state’s law says or what the Supreme Court says.
Note: If you want to know more about this issue and what our Constitution says, you can listen to my teaching, “Should we Submit to ALL Authority?” The last half explains the power given to the federal government compared to that given to the states. I know it will surprise some of you as it did me when I began to study it. We need to understand this and then pray rightful authority back into our states and cities. We also need to continue to pray for righteous leaders who will then keep this authority and not give it away for dollars. Click here to listen.
Father we pray Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. We lift up our nation which is splintering. We declare that America will return to righteousness and hunger and thirst for You. For then You said You would pour out Your Spirit like water on our thirsty land and streams on the dry ground. You will pour out Your Spirit on our offspring and Your blessing on our descendants. We pray for revival in hearts and minds everywhere.
Lord You see how this administration tries to overthrow our Constitution. John Adams stated “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” That explains why they hate it. Hear our cry, O Lord, and turn America back to a moral people whose hearts fear and honor You. Who will once again see the blessing and miracle of America and our Constitution. We pray a hedge of protection around it that despite their best efforts that they will be overthrown in their attempt to overthrow it.
Where the federal government attempts to codify abortion laws and now marriage laws to solidify immorality as the law of the land, Father we ask that You would override them.
Now as primary elections conclude and the mid-term elections approach, deliver us from the corruption and deception regarding voting machines, mail-in ballots and illegal votes which continue to be covered up and denied. But Lord nothing escapes Your notice. For where can we go from your Spirit? And where can we flee from your presence? If we go up to the heavens, you are there. if we make my bed in the depths, You are there. You see all. You desire all to come to You. But Lord—how long until You act on our behalf? We call for justice and righteousness to prevail and for elections with a truthful outcome.
Thank You for those who have spent their own money, time and energy to expose election fraud. We have done everything we know to do in this area Lord. We need You. As the mid-term elections approach, do not let them continue to get away with their corruption of our nation, of our schools of our land. We pray You would overthrow their majority and their corruption and lies.
Just as You protected King David long ago as his enemies attempted to overthrow him, we pray that You would rise up and protect us. Protect Israel and America—-the two nations You established—but which they work desperately to destroy.
We pray over America. We pray for those who have already been removed from their seat of authority and their office through fraud and deception. May those who continue with to pronounce those lies be silenced. We pray also for those targeted for removal or to be blocked from winning because they stand for righteousness. May all the efforts of the unjust fail.
We pray for godly men and women running for office, currently in office or those fraudulently removed. You said that You would crush their adversaries and strike those who hate them. That Your faithfulness and Your lovingkindness will be upon them and in Your name their horn (light, power) will be exalted. With Your hand they will be established and Your arm will strengthen them. For arrogant men and women have risen up against us and a band of violent men have sought our lives and our nation. Father, You are well able to expose and restore leaders to their rightful seats.
We pray that Christians will continue to wake up and become involved in this process and vote! May we no longer lose ground because of laziness or the belief that we should not be involved. Father expose that lie for what it is. We pray also for those willing to run for office and those now in office who are there at your call. It is not an easy task. Bless them Lord as they stand as lights in a dark place. Strengthen their hands for war.
We pray that the balance of power will be restored to what was established in our Constitution and that these executive orders which have been used to legislate would be uprooted. You said You make the crooked places straight. Show us a sign for good Lord. That those who hate America and Your people would see it and be ashamed because You, O Lord have helped us and comforted us. May it bring the fear of the Lord upon them.
You see how they continue to try to crush prosperity out of our nation. Lord our trust is in You. You are our supply not the government. You said You will provide for Your people. So we put our trust in You. We will not fret because of them or their evil plans, for You said they would wither quickly like the grass. For Your eye is on those who fear You and those who hope in Your lovingkindness to deliver us from death and keep us alive in famine.
We declare that righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne and lovingkindness and truth go before You. How blessed are the people who know and recognize Your joyful sound!
