Prayer for President and the United State of America

Prayer for President and the United State of America

Ps 140

Lord rescue President Donald J Trump and the United States from evil men: preserve him and this country from violent men, who devise evil things in their hearts; they continually stir up wars verbally attacking him with lies and unfounded accusations and seek help from other nations to destroy the destiny of the United States.  They sharpen their tongues as a serpent; poison of a viper is under their lips. Keep President Donald J. Trump, Lord, from the hands of the wicked. Preserve him from violent men who have purposed to trip up his feet and bring the United States of America down. The proud have hidden a trap for him and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside. They have set snares for him.

Lord, you are his God. You have called him at this time in our history to fulfill the destiny you have for the United States. Give ear, Lord, to the voice of his supplications. Lord, the strength of his salvation, you have covered his head in the day of battle. Do not grant, Lord, the desires of the wicked; do not promote their evil device lest they be exalted.

As for the head of those who surround him, may the mischief of their lips cover them.  May burning coals fall upon them; may they be cast into the fire, into deep pits from which they cannot rise, may a slanderer not be established in the earth; may evil hunt the violent man speedily. Let them repent, or cut them off.

Let President Donald Trump know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted (those who have been victims of riots and chaos in our cities and streets), and justice for the poor (those who have lost their loved ones, businesses, incomes, peace of mind).  Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.

Lord we invoke the covenants of the sure mercies of David over the United States of America. In your mercy to the destiny of this nation Cut off those who are trying to sidetrack it. Cut off those who are trying to turn it into a communist or socialistic country. Cut off those who are trying to abort our destiny. You are our God. We are your servants, Lord, visit them with your affliction, visit them and turn them if they will turn. If they won’t turn before they can destroy one more person, cut them off.

Watch “War Drums (Spontaneous Worship) (Crazy Release)” on YouTube

During our church intercessory prayer time this week, in my mind I heard the sound of drums and the words “War Drums.” We sent the body of Christ out to answer that call.  [When I came home, I did a search on my phone for “Christian War Drums” and the following came up. When I listened, I realized that is what I had heard in my mind.]

War has been declared on the enemy. Rise up! Wake up! Answer that call. Our fight is not with flesh and blood, but against the world forces of wickedness. Say Yes Lord, use me; Yes Lord, teach me. He’s ready, are you?

WORSHIP

WORSHIP

This information came from a post on Instagram. I wanted to make sure that all of that information was posted as they posted it. It is an excellent reminder of God’s view of praise and worship and it’s effect on us personally.

It confirms the word the Lord gave me about “the enemy has no defense against praise.” It is the one weapon we can use that doesn’t require a great deal of knowledge, maturity in the Lord, denomination or doctrinal beliefs. It is up to exercise that weapon through our lips.

SURPRISE!

SURPRISE!

Praise the Lord!

While I was sitting with the Lord yesterday, he gave me the word “Surprise.” I said, “What surprise do you have in store?” “How could the demonic be taken by surprise?” The Lord reminded me that the weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary , they have divine power to demolish strongholds. (2 Cor. 10:14)

In my mind, the Lord brought me up to the top of a mountain looking out on the world. “What do you see, was the thought that came to mind?” I see masks on people’s faces. Underneath the masks are people who are hurting but no one sees. Their expressions are covered, hidden from sight. They haven’t been touched by another human for weeks because of physical distancing. Fears everywhere. You could almost touch it. The media feeds on it to create fear which multiplies with every report. The airwaves are filled with lies and toxic words. Fear is the breeding ground for negative words and lies.

“I said Lord how can this happen?” l heard the words, through ignorance, misinformation, exaggeration, manipulation, lies, apathy, deception, confusion, dissemination, division, complaining, dissatisfaction , grumbling. Then the thought came, “40 days of praise!” We should be doing this anyway, but making a concentrated, dedicated effort.

Declare a scripture of praise and release it over yourself, over your family, church, neighborhood, city, state, country. Some people fast food TV etc. We are to fast negative words; break agreements with the negative words we have heard, agreed with and allowed to be repeated from our lips. We are to speak the words of praise for 40 days. Praise is the weapon that will “Surprise” the enemy and one he cannot defend against. Spread the word. Begin now.

“Little Finger” – Song

“Little Finger” – Song

One day a finger was walking along
doing his own thing, but it was all wrong.
Where is the body? Where is the hand?
But the finger said, "I'm my own man."
Little finger all alone, 
You should not be away from your home.
Little finger why do you roam,
Apart from the body you cannot grow.
He struggled and tried very hard on his own,
He wanted fame and fortune and gold.
So unhappy and so alone,
He finally came back to his home.
Little finger all alone,
You should not be away from your home.
Little finger why do you roam,
Apart from the body you cannot grow.
As people in the body with Jesus as our head
We often wander off alone and often walk ahead,
But gently and so softly he calls us back to him
So we can be a body to minister again.

“WHAT KIND OF VESSEL . . .” – Song

“WHAT KIND OF VESSEL . . .” – Song

The Holy Spirit was around one day
Looking for a vessel made of clay.
One was full and the other cracked;
He said, "I guess I'll have to come back."

He was looking for an empty one
That He could fill and overrun;
Filling it freely with power and love
So it could be used by God above.

What kind of vessel should we be
To let God's love flow so free?
What kind of vessel should we be
To let God's love flow so free?

If we're always busy doing good works
But never have time for people who hurt;
We block the flow of his love for them
And yet they think He's our best friend.

He wants to use us on His own
But often we're busy on the phone;
Telling Him what He should do
And He just says, "I wish you were through."

What kind of vessel should we be
To let God's love flow so free?
What kind of vessel should we be
To let God's love flow so free?

If we were open and waiting on Him
He'd be delighted to fill us within
So His love could pour out on all around
For no greater love could ever be found.

WHO WILL STAND UP WITH ME . . . ?

WHO WILL STAND UP WITH ME . . . ?

Several years ago I was watching a local news station in the San Francisco Bay Area. They were reporting about a dog that had been given to a neighbor by a family that was moving away and were unable to take the dog with them. It was reported by a witness, that the man later tied the dog to a tree, wrapped duct tape around its’ mouth and let his other dogs loose on this dog. It had no way to defend itself. Authorities were called, but when they arrived, the dog had to be euthanized because the injuries were so horrible and the dog was in so much pain.

That story broke my heart as I love animals and there were tears in the eyes of the reporter sharing the story. I wish I hadn’t heard the story. I wanted to take all that information out of my mind and pretend I hadn’t heard it. I closed it off in my memory and tried to forget it; you may feel that way at the moment too.

Weeks later as I was in prayer one morning, praying for babies that were being aborted; the Lord reminded me about that news story and how I felt. He spoke to my mind in my thoughts and said, “That is what happens to a baby being aborted in the womb. They are in pain and have no voice that can be heard from the womb.” I was shaken by this revelation and said, “What do you want me to do Lord?” I was led to type up this revelation and fax, email and send to every source I could find in the government and friends and family. This was before the days of facebook and smart phones.

I received a form letter from my senator’s office telling me that she understood my concern, respected my views and appreciated my contacting her office. Since this was a personal issue and everyone had their own opinions, there was nothing she could do about it. That is not word for word and I did not save the letter, but basically I was dismissed.

Who am I? I’m just one person. When I discoverd that I do have a voice, I have chosen to use it. What are you going to do?

“Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?” Psalms 94:16

“You, Father God, stand with me against the evildoers and the workers of iniquity. Those who harden their hearts and choose to kill and support the death of the unborn. Change their hearts, O’ GOD, or cut them off to stop their wickedness and destruction of those who cannot speak.” In Jesus name, Amen

For every aborted life, I declare and decree exponential salvation of souls who acknowledge and receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

Psalm 139:15-16 – “When my bones were being formed, carefully put together in my mother’s womb, when I was growing there in secret, you knew that I was there — you saw me before I was born. The days allotted to me had all been recorded in your book, before any of them ever began.” GNT

NOTE: God loves you. He has a plan for your life. I encourage you, if you have not done so, to invite Him into your life (check out “About Me“). If you have been touched by this BLOG and need prayer, please respond in the “Contact” section of my website. I would love to pray for you or with you.

“Come and dance . . . .

“Come and dance . . . .

. . . . and sing with Me” – Song

From out of the darkness and into the light,
He calls you to come to Him.
Leave the things of the past behind.
Come to Him.

Come and dance and sing with Him.
Come and dance and play.
Come out of the darkness and into the light,
And be with Him.

You're not of this world anymore.
You opened the door; invited Him in.
You asked forgiveness;
Release from sin.

You've waited and waited
For Him to come in;
Beloved, He says,
"I've been waiting within!"

Come and dance and sing with Me.
Come and dance and play.
Come out of the darkness and into the light
And be with Me.

Your heart has been heavy.
Your sorrow is great.
You think I'm not with you
That somehow I'm late.

Beloved no greater love
Has been given,
Than that which I've sent
You from heaven.

Come and dance and sing with Me.
Come and dance and play!
Original song “Come and Dance” from Beth Fredricksen

COME, FOLLOW ME

COME, FOLLOW ME

In my mind, I was in a field
Full of sheep.
Some were playing and
Some sound asleep.

I tried to get their attention
Because I wanted to play;
But, I was the odd sheep,
An outcast that day.

I said to the shepherd,
"Where will I go?"
The Shepherd said, "Come,
Follow me and you will know"

I said to the shepherd,
"Who's coming with me?"
The Shepherd said,
"Come, follow me."

I looked aroud and
no one else came.
So, I went on my way
With Jesus that day.

Sometimes we follow and
Sometimes we lead;
But the Shepherd says,
"Come, follow me."

When we walk off without him
And struggle alone;
In love, He finds us
And brings us back home.

ROCKS

ROCKS

In my mind, I see myself
In a house full of rocks;
But when I turn around,
I don’t see any rocks!

Confused, I think,
“What did I see?”
“Rocks are being
thrown at me!”

“Come on Lord,
I don’t see the rocks.
What is this all about?”
What is happening to me?

And then I heard,
“Many of the thoughts I speak,
And that are spoken to me,
Become as rocks thrown you see!”

They are often sent
To bring me down;
And, if I let them,
Cause me to frown.

My life could become lonely
And dreary each day;
But wait, there’s hope,
Jesus is the way.

With Him on my mind,
The rocks disappear.
No more sorrow;
No more fear.

Isaiah 26:3 NKJV
“You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You.”

STOP!

STOP!


On April 2, 2020, I was awakened and asking the Lord how to pray for the virus and chaos our country and the world is facing. I heard and saw in my mind the word STOP. I actually yelled STOP out loud. I said, “How does that look Lord? This is what I heard Him say:

“The body of Christ needs to rise up in authority, with one voice and one word – STOP! It’s not a bunch of words, it’s one word – STOP!

A “stop sign” has one word on it and it carries the autority to tell a driver to STOP. If it does not, it can be struck by another vehicle and cause damage and possibly death. There is not a paragraph written on the “stop sign.” It is the “stop sign” that represents a legal definition that everyone is required to know before they get a license to drive.

Let that authority rise up in one accord. Use the heavenly authority given to you with the one word – STOP!

Mark 4:39-41 NKJV – “On the same day, when evening had come, He said to then, “Let us cross over to the other side.” Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. 

But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, ‘Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?’ Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Peace, be still!’ And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. But He said to them, ‘Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?’ And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, ‘Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!’”

Mark 16:18 – NKJV – “And He said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.’”

Psalms 91:1 – “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Psalms 91:9-10 – “Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;”
