Isaiah 13:11
Thus I will punish the world for its evil
And the wicked for their iniquity;
I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud
And abase the haughtiness of the ruthless.

Prayer To Keep Me From Spiritual Pride
Father God, You alone are worthy to receive all honour and might and majesty and power and glory and honour and blessing, for you have created all things and You have made us for Your pleasure and to Your honour, and so I come today to offer myself to be used of You. Thank You, Father, for the spiritual gifts that You have given me. Lord, I know that today there are many evidences all around us that the spiritual gifts that You have graciously given to many in the Church, seem to be abused in the same way that they were misapplied in the church at Corinth.
Lord, I pray that You would use my spiritual gifts as well as my natural abilities to Your praise and glory and not for my own personal use or pride, and Lord, I accept that spiritual gifts are not necessarily an evidence of spirituality. Nevertheless Lord, I pray that I may grow in grace and in a knowledge of Jesus. May I grow spiritually and become mature in the faith, so that my spiritual gifts may be used as befitting a mature man or woman of God.
Humble me if necessary Lord, for I do not want to become puffed up with pride, knowing that You have been bestowed so much grace and generousity with the spiritual gifts that you have given to me. Help me to rightly use all that You have given me wisely and appropriately, and keep me ever low at the cross and broken before You.
Father, I praise and thank You for every spiritual gift I have, and I prayerfully dedicate each one back to You, so that they may be used as You would have me use them, to help and encourage other believers in these difficult times and to lift up Your name – for I desire that You increase in every area of my life and that I decrease, until it is not I, but Christ that lives in me and works through me.
Help me I pray, to discover the proper way to use my spiritual giftings, and I pray that You would teach me how exercise all my spiritual gifts, to Your praise and glory. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Prayer For Salvation for My Enemies
Heavenly Father, You have called us to pray for our enemies and all those that seek to do us harm, and not to heap up unforgiveness or resentments in our heart, and so Lord I want to bring before You all those people in my life who have become enemies of my soul, and to ask for Your grace, favour and forgiveness to be poured out on them. Lord, I pray that You would convict each one of their need of Jesus as their Saviour.
Lord, I know that it is not Your will that anyone should perish but that all should come to salvation in Jesus Christ, and so I bring all those people in my life that have sought to do me evil or inflicted harm on me, whether intentionally or unwittingly, to Your merciful throne of grace to plead forgiveness and to ask mercy on their souls.
Lord, for Your holy name’s sake, I pray that You would draw close to each. Open their eyes to the truth of the gospel of grace I pray, and bring each one into a saving faith on the Lord Jesus. Draw them with Your cords of loving forgiveness into Your family. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Please give all people hope and give America the hope we need to continue on. We thank you always. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Thank you for your prayer, ViLaLuz
FATHER, we pray Your Will be done; ask for healing of
our nation and suffering family members.
Dear FATHER. we mourn the loss of the countless heroes lost
those years ago. These brave souls, men, women, dogs, etc.
Special prayers You show justice for Veteran Daniel Penny,
Veteran H Floyd (34 yo black man held in jail in Atlanta as an indicted defendant and unable to make bail/hire an attorney),
George Allan Kelly and those unfairly imprisoned abroad
and in D.C. Please show them Your Mercy. FATHER, the list
of those unfairly imprisoned grows longer each day. We pray our enemies cease this unfair act soon.
As always, we pray for the brave men and women who
sacrifice greatly to keep our borders safe and
the patriots who attempt
to save our country. We ask You Open Your Arms,
enfolding into the Kingdom of Heaven the many Maui
victims, you comfort their grieving loved ones.
I thank You for this circle of faithful, ask you fill all
with the spirit of kindness which they might show to all,
even those who hold so much animosity. Kindness equals
kindness. Please endow us all to exemplify the kindness and
enduring love You show us each day.
We value Your Wisdom in the presence of Donald Trump,
sent to save this nation founded in Your Name. Sensing
he
was Created By You, for this time, we’ve
faith You have Touched him with Your Protection.
We wish to acknowledge the Miracle we have witnessed in Your
Works to set Veteran Floyd free. Kind souls donating money to set bond in bailing him out of prison. We pray Veteran Floyd will be able to hire his own defense council, and find a roof over his head soon. We’ve Faith You will see him thru to the better times, which he so desperately needs.
In addition, Father a Thank You for the Patriot Medical Profession Members. After having first hand dealings with these men and women over the years find that many, if not most are still of and with WTP rather than the elites who wish to run and ruin our lives. These individuals must walk a tightrope in truly being a doctor and treating patients or looking to lose their license to practice if they do not toe the line in obeying the rules and regulations of our current Marxist government and corrupt hotheads of the leaders in their profession in charge of licenses. We should walk in their shoes, an attempt to make the decision if we were them. Granted, there are a few bad apples to be
found; A Dr. Fauci type. However, we also find a good many, if not more of the dedicated, hard working such as Dr.McCulloh type. We pray you give them the strength to make the right decisions/choices. Our prayers go up for these torn men and women.
Father, the words typed may be incoherent to some, but in Your Wisdom You Know why my attempt to put into words our gratude and Thanksgiving is so overwhelimg. You might say, Words fail me. Thank You for all things, both great and small.
In the
Name of Jesus. Amen!

Powerful Prayer Against Evil Enemies
Father I know that the real enemies that I face are spiritual principalities and powers and mighty spiritual wickedness in high places. and I know that the people who rise up against me are simply the tools that are being used against me by these spiritual beings. who seek to shipwreck my faith and cause me to lose heart and doubt Your Word, but in the mighty name of Jesus I pray that their strongholds may be smashed, and that I may be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, as I face every enemy onslaught.
Thank You for the spiritual armor that is mine in Christ and I pray that every moment of the day I may be covered in His great protection that You have provided for all who have trusted in Christ as Saviour. Thank You for the breastplate of righteousness and the shoes of peace. the helmet of salvation and the belt of truth. Thank You that in Christ I have all that I need to stand firm against the schemes of the devil and the forces of evil. Thank You for the shield of faith which is able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the enemy. and how I praise You that my main weapon of attack is the Word of God, which stands fast for ever and ever.
In the name of Jesus may I stand firm through prayer and praise in the evil day and be alert with all perseverance, and having done all may I still stand firm in Christ Who has won the victory over every spiritual force and every evil enemy. Thank You Father in Jesus name,
Amen

Prayer For Intercessors In The Spiritual Conflict
Thank You Father for the men and women who have dedicated their lives to the ministry of intercession and we pray Your protection over each one, knowing that they are in the front line of a spiritual warfare that has been raging in the heavens, since man chose to rebel against his Creator, and Satan took the reins of power over this world system.
Help each one to recognize the significance of the spiritual conflict in which they are involved and we pray that they would be vigilant in putting on the whole armor of God daily, knowing that the enemy is seeking to destroy their testimony and cripple their effectiveness.
Direct and govern their prayers and intercessions and give them an ever present recognition that greater is HE that is in them than he that is in the world. May each one rest in the knowledge that the victory is secured the Lord, which has already been won at Calvary. May each one simply abide in Christ and remain faithful to their post, so that the Spirit of God may use them as a vessel to forward His plans and purpose in the world - until Christ is all in all. Thank You Father for the ministry of intercession and raise up we pray, many who will take up the baton of prayer, to Your glory, in Jesus name we pray,
Amen

Psalm 71
1 In you, O Lord, I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame.
2 In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me and save me.
3 Be to me a rock of refuge,
a strong fortress,* to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.
4 Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and cruel.
5 For you, O Lord, are my hope,
my trust, O Lord, from my youth.
6 Upon you I have leaned from my birth;
it was you who took me from my mother’s womb.
My praise is continually of you.
7 I have been like a portent to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
8 My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all day long.
9 Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
do not forsake me when my strength is spent.
10 For my enemies speak concerning me,
and those who watch for my life consult together.
11 They say, ‘Pursue and seize that person
whom God has forsaken,
for there is no one to deliver.’
12 O God, do not be far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
13 Let my accusers be put to shame and consumed;
let those who seek to hurt me
be covered with scorn and disgrace.
14 But I will hope continually,
and will praise you yet more and more.
15 My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all day long,
though their number is past my knowledge.
16 I will come praising the mighty deeds of the Lord God,
I will praise your righteousness, yours alone.
17 O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.
18 So even to old age and grey hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might
to all the generations to come.*
Your power 19and your righteousness, O God,
reach the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?
20 You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
21 You will increase my honour,
and comfort me once again.
22 I will also praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praises to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips will shout for joy
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have rescued.
24 All day long my tongue will talk of your righteous help,
for those who tried to do me harm
have been put to shame, and disgraced.
Amen and amen.
We proclaim again and rededicate America as Yours, Father God.
Amen to your Beautiful, Power-Filled Prayer, Dear Servant of Jesus Christ.
Praying with you in Heartfelt Agreement.
Amen fieldmarshaldj. Praying in agreement with your powerful prayer.
For The Elected Government To Act Wisely
Loving Lord and judge of all the nations, we come before You in sadness of spirit, knowing that our once great nation has fallen into such a sad and sorry state of repair. Revive us we pray, and restore us, for we have no help, except in You alone.
Guide the governors, legislators, sheriffs and all those men and women that are in senior positions of power, both in local and national government. Give them grace and wisdom to guide our nation back from the path of destruction, and onto the path where God is the One in Whom we place our trust.
Lord, we know that when a nation turns their back on You, they have turned from the path of freedom. We pray that in Your grace and patient loving-kindness, You would bring us back to the place where You are honoured in this land so that we may once again be a nation of free people.
Forgive us for our foolishness and from deviating from the path of truth onto this winding path to destruction. Forgive us that You have not been placed in Your rightful position in the governance of our nations, and may we turn back to Yourself, both individually and nationally. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Thank you redryder.
Prayer For Our Government Leaders
Dear Lord, I lift up all those that are in leadership position in our government, both locally and nationally. May they be endowed with wisdom, strength and justice to administer their duties in a manner that is right and pleasing in Your sight.
Give them the wisdom to rightly and justly administer the law and to carry out their judgements and decisions in the fear of the Lord.
Keep our leaders from adopting humanistic laws, which are so contrary to Your truth. Guard their consciences from being seared by so much that is flooding the corridors of world power today and give each one wisdom, insight and integrity in the decisions they have to reach, and may we live peaceably in this land as we wait for the any day return of the Lord Jesus Christ to take His church to be with Him into heaven. In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen.

Prayer For Our Government
Father, we thank and praise You for the many blessings You have bestowed on our nation, blessings that we don’t deserve but which You have showered on us in Your grace and mercy.
But Father, we know that our country seems to have lost its way and our government seems to be spiralling out of control, and we have no one to look to but You. We pray, that You would look down on our country with pity and great mercy, and we pray that our government would be convicted of their need to turn once again to You for wisdom to govern this once great nation in a way that is honouring to Your name.
We pray for each of our leaders and lift them up to You, praying that they would look to You both individually and collectively, so that our nation may be governed according to Your plans and purposes. But if as a nation we are to face Your displeasure because we have turned from Your statues and disobeyed Your laws, we pray that You would be merciful, and we ask that in Your grace many of our leaders would to cry to You for salvation and help. This we ask for the sake of our Saviour, Jesus Christ our Lord,
Amen.

For America As A Nation Who Has Lost Its Way
Loving Lord, I come to You to place the once great nation of United States of America at Your feet, knowing that our great country and it’s constitution was made for a moral and religious people and is wholly inadequate for any other form of government, and yet we have strayed so far from the principles and practices of our great founders, who drew up our constitution based on Your Word.
But Lord, although this was once the land of the brave and the home of the free, sadly there is so much that is wrong with our country that I fear for its future. Lord, as a people we have walked away from You and discredited Your holy name by the way that we have conducted ourselves over the past few years and there is no health in our land.
Look down in pity on our people and our land, and protect us from those that seem determined on destroying our nation. Send Your Spirit I pray, through the land of America, and touch the hearts of all those that are called by Your name to plead on behalf our people. Convict those that are damaging our infrastructure and as a nation may we turn away from our wicked ways and return You to Your rightful position, in integrity and truth.
I ask this in Jesus’ name,
Amen.
