Faith for Righteousness

[Please join me in praying for our nation and the world on Tuesdays. This post is from early in 2023, but still worth praying.]

“May God arise, may his enemies be scattered; may his foes flee before him.” (Psalm 68:1 NIV)

“Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.” (Hebrews 11:1 NIV)

“Father God, in the name of Jesus, we thank You for loving us and caring for our needs. We thank You that You are good and that Your mercy endures forever.

Father, thank You for everything You did in 2022 and prior years. But as 2023 has dawned, we believe that You are doing a new thing; now it springs forth – we do see it!

We thank You, Father – Lord of Heaven and Earth – that You are making all things new in the United States of America right now. We thank You that You are even now dethroning unrighteous leaders and establishing righteousness at all levels of government. We thank You that hidden things are being exposed and revealed, and that You are bringing justice where there was none before.

Abba Father, in the mighty name of Jesus, we speak the following over our nation:

• Let God arise, and His enemies be scattered! Let ALL those who hate Him flee before Him.

• Let the triumph of the righteous be manifest, in the holy and precious name of Jesus!

• Let the resurrection power of God flood over this land, resurrecting hunger and passion for righteousness again!

• Let every state resound with the praises of our God!

• Let the righteous shout for joy with the voice of triumph!

We thank You, Father – Lord of Heaven and Earth – that 2023 is the year in which the righteous shall be exalted.

We have humbled ourselves under Your mighty hand, and we will forever continue to do so. But, Father, Your Word says that the set time to favor us has come. So, heavenly Father, we expect and are assured of Your favor this year.” – Jamie Rohrbaugh

God, as we continue in the last half of 2023, we pray that you will turn this nation to your righteousness. We know that when the wicked are in power, there is great trouble, so we pray that you would break the power of the wicked, scatter your foes and enemies, and humble those who have exalted themselves. Where we do not see your movement, help us to have faith and confidence in what we don’t see yet. May shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous. Our Lord’s right hand has done mighty things! AMEN and AMEN.

“When the righteous triumph, there is great elation; but when the wicked rise to power, people go into hiding.” (Proverbs 28:12 NIV)

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43:19 NIV)

“For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” (Matthew 23:12 NIV)

“Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: “The Lord’s right hand has done mighty things!” (Psalm 118:15 NIV)

“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
    because the Lord has anointed me
    to proclaim good news to the poor.

He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
    to proclaim freedom for the captives
    and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
    and the day of vengeance of our God.” (Isaiah 61:1-2 NIV)

“The power of the wicked will be broken,
    but the Lord upholds the righteous.” (Psalm 37:17 NIV)
