Father, in the name of Jesus, we come before You with thanksgiving and praise for who You are and what You are going to do on behalf of our once great nation and its people.
We see in the natural and the spirit realm spiritual darkness that is surely moving to take over and destroy our nation through deception, removal of God-given rights, and tyrannical control.
We fully understand and are not deceived concerning this battle between good and evil, light and darkness, and consider this as an offense against our God and His entire creation. Furthermore, we understand and acknowledge the fact that there is NO political, economic, or any other solution to a spiritual problem.
We are up against demonic forces that have been manipulating and controlling our nation for too long. For we are not wrestling against flesh and blood, but against evil wicked spirits, against the master spirits who are the world rulers of this present darkness. (Ephesians 6:12)
Heavenly Father, You have given us the tools, strategies, and power to wage spiritual warfare, stand, occupy until you return, call out evil, resist all evil, and surely prevail. (Luke 10:19)
We must Fight in the spirit as well as with BOOTS on the GROUND; But we must first fight in the realm of the SPIRIT by putting on our COMPLETE ARMOR, so that we may be able to RESIST and STAND our ground during this evil day of danger.
We thank you for your perfect ARMOR, which is: (Ephesians 6:11, 13-17)
1. THE BELT OF TRUTH, which is Your word, and Your word is supernatural, full of Dunamis, and the antidote against all lies and deceptions of the enemy.
2. THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, which is to repent and be forgiven for our sins and to do what is right in the sight of GOD.
3. THE SHOES OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, which is to stand ready and firm to combat the enemy.
4. THE SHIELD OF FAITH, which quenches and puts out ALL the fiery darts and strategies of the hidden evil enemies.
5. THE HELMET OF SALVATION, which protects our mind from all discouragement, anxiety, depression, fear, and despair present in our world today.
6. THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT, which is the living and powerful word of God. The Word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. So, Father we use TODAY and every day, the whole armor of God, and all scripture to RESIST and DEFEAT all STRATEGIES, PLOTS, SCHEMES, PLANS, IDEOLOGIES, all EVIL SYSTEMS, ORGANIZATIONS, SECRET SOCIETIES, NON GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS, EVIL POLITICIANS, EVIL POLITICAL STRUCTURES, and EVIL WEIGHTS AND MEASURES of the evil enemies that have come against our country, its people, all humanity, and all of God’s creation.
There will be a great reset, but the great reset will be us taking back our country, And WE MUST take it back NOW!! This is that moment in time for us to FOCUS on what UNITES us and RISE above the matters that divide us. We were put here for a time such as this. (Esther 4:13-14)
We, your people who are called by Your name hereby humble ourselves, pray and seek Your face, turn away from our evil ways, and ask forgiveness for allowing this evil to consume our nation, then Father God, you said you would forgive our sin and heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14).
We now take authority in the name of Jesus, and decree and declare that our country is restored to its Judeo-Christian values (we recognize the authority and law of Jesus Christ, Savior and Ruler of all nations. Psalm 22:28)
We decree and declare a spirit of humility and repentance fall on the hearts and minds of our nation’s people.
We decree and declare restoration and protection to our unique DNA which contains the very fingerprint of God as we are made in His image. Psalm 139:13-14
We decree and declare that we are ending the war on our precious babies and children.
We decree and declare that we are restoring the original intent, structure, and sovereign rights provided by the United States Constitution while boldly demanding Godly enforcement of its tenants.
We decree and declare that a mighty revival is sweeping throughout our land.
We decree and declare that when this WAR is over, we will be found standing stronger in the victory that our God has surely delivered in our hands, and quick to give all glory, honor, and praise to our beloved Savior.
We decree and declare that we are once again the Light of the World and a City that Sits Upon a Hill that cannot be hidden. (Mathew 5:13-16). We, God’s people, will not go gentle into the night nor walk in darkness.
This we pray in the name above all names, Jesus Christ, Amen!!
