Now the king heard concerning Tirhakah king of Cush, “Behold, he has set out to fight against you.” So he sent messengers again to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus shall you speak to Hezekiah king of Judah: ‘Do not let your God in whom you trust deceive you by promising that Jerusalem will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria. Behold, you have heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, devoting them to destruction. And shall you be delivered? Have the gods of the nations delivered them, the nations that my fathers destroyed, Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden who were in Telassar? Where is the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, the king of the city of Sepharvaim, the king of Hena, or the king of Ivvah?’”
Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers and read it; and Hezekiah went up to the house of the Lord and spread it before the Lord. And Hezekiah prayed before the Lord and said:
“O Lord, the God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear; open your eyes, O Lord, and see; and hear the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God. Truly, O Lord, the kings of Assyria have laid waste the nations and their lands and have cast their gods into the fire, for they were not gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone. Therefore they were destroyed. So now, O Lord our God, save us, please, from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, O Lord, are God alone.”
2 Kings 19:8-19 “Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the king of Assyria: He shall not come into this city or shoot an arrow there, or come before it with a shield or cast up a siege mound against it. By the way that he came, by the same he shall return, and he shall not come into this city, declares the Lord. For I will defend this city to save it, for my own sake and for the sake of my servant David.”
Lord, Like Hezekiah, we see our enemy mocking You on a daily basis in so many ways. They seem to be challenging You to do something to stop their evil plans, so we ask, Father, that You would do just that.
Thank You for the answered prayer that we have prayed to expose the plans of the enemy. By the day we see that prayer being answered and it’s good that their plans are being exposed, but being exposed is not enough.
Something needs to be done and sadly, there are not many people, it seems, who are willing to do something to stop this evil.
So we look to You for Divine Intervention. We ask that You would raise up strong and godly men and women of character who would be in positions where they could do something that would have an effect.
We pray that You would stir in the hearts of Your people a righteous and holy indignation to become bold in speaking out against the evil, and to be faithful in prayer, in engaging in spiritual warfare.
Please motivate Your people and churches to bring back midweek prayer services for the purpose of praying for this country and the salvation of souls.
In areas where human action is not happening or is being thwarted by evil forces, please remove from positions or influence, power, and authority those who oppose You.
Please protect the election process and divinely thwart any attempts at vote fraud.
And mostly, at the grassroots level, bring people into Your kingdom. Send out the workers into the harvest field. Equip us and strengthen us to boldly do Your work and share the gospel and bring souls to You.
Thank You for the gift of Your Holy Spirit to enable us for the task.
We anticipate watching the deliverance we are praying for and thank and praise You for it in advance.
Amen!
Exodus 15:1-3 Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the Lord, saying, “I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea. The Lord is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is his name.

Amen and amen.
Prayers for those in authority, leadership
( and prayers for our enemies)
is probably the most overlooked and forgotten and important subjects to pray for.
Maranatha.
Amen.
Ironic, isn’t it, that these days, those groups are one and the same.
Those in leadership and authority should not also be our enemies.
Proverbs 16:7 When a man’s ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.
Joining you in prayer, Dear Metmom, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Psalm 58
To the leader: Do Not Destroy. Of David. A Miktam.
1 Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods?*
Do you judge people fairly?
2 No, in your hearts you devise wrongs;
your hands deal out violence on earth.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb;
they err from their birth, speaking lies.
4 They have venom like the venom of a serpent,
like the deaf adder that stops its ear,
5 so that it does not hear the voice of charmers
or of the cunning enchanter.
6 O God, break the teeth in their mouths;
tear out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!
7 Let them vanish like water that runs away;
like grass let them be trodden down* and wither.
8 Let them be like the snail that dissolves into slime;
like the untimely birth that never sees the sun.
9 Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns,
whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!
10 The righteous will rejoice when they see vengeance done;
they will bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.
11 People will say, ‘Surely there is a reward for the righteous; surely there is a God who judges on earth.’
FATHER, we pray for victory over those who seek harm
toward us. Please help in crushing their ability to
destroy all evil which has taken root.
Thank You for all things, great and small. In the name
of Jesus. Amen!
Amen. Marvelous prayer. Thank you so much.
Amen
Amen, metmom
