Pray for every political leader and representative, so that we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts. (1 Timothy 2:2 TPT)
The following was a prophetic word and call to warrior prayer given by Amanda Grace in late October. Although the government shutdown has been resolved, we must still pray for those in positions of governmental leadership and against the principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
“Terror seeks an occasion amidst wars, rumors of wars, and rogue mayors and governors arising, making such noise amidst the bloodshed in this nation. Terror moves about, seeking to send your nation into complete upheaval,” says the Lord, “seeking to be the one who ‘rattled the presidency,'” says the Lord.
“For this is greater than the Taliban,” says the Lord. “This is a banded network of representatives from these groups banding together by a pact and an oath, like such an oath that was made by Jews and Pharisees, that they would fast until they killed Paul. That spirit that influenced Saul to commit such acts of terror is now on the move to attempt to stop the shift, the great transformation of Paul, in this nation.
“It will take intercession, fierce intercession, and the sword of the Spirit being utilized, and the agreement of the Church to weaken such an attack. For the serpent has not only laid eggs but moved into position in this nation and is posturing itself for another strike around the time of the one-year mark from the election in this nation. High alert,” says the Lord, “high alert.
“Strategic and powerful prayer can turn the war. Obedience to what I the Lord thy God am requiring in this hour can turn such,” says the Lord. “The obedience of the Cabinet and the president and vice in this hour can turn such events that have postured themselves. For just as Hamas appears to make a deal,” says the Lord, “the Taliban shall see an occasion and rise up in fierceness—a two-headed serpent. Do not cut one off without the other,” says the Lord. “There is a full-circle moment with the Taliban,” says the Lord, “that can be cut off and stopped if leadership will hearken unto MY voice,” says the Lord. “The advisers, the prognosticators, the company of foolishness yelling in Congress is all noise, that the enemy can attempt to move about undetected.”*
El Shaddai, the Lord Almighty,
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, we come before you today, Jehovah Nissi, our Banner and Victory, to intercede for this nation. Holy Spirit, rise up the power of your praying Church to stand against all evil and terror. Stir within us the courage and fortitude to boldly declare, “No more!” to every enemy.
We acknowledge the powers of darkness in the world and recognize that we cannot see all the principalities and powers aligned against us. Therefore, today we command your angel armies to take charge over these forces of darkness, especially those associated with terror and acts of violence by groups such as Hamas and the Taliban.
We bind every spirit of evil—anything and everything not fully aligned with the Lord Jesus Christ—and we release spirits of peace, prosperity, and protection over our nation.
In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray for wisdom, discernment, knowledge, skill, and grace to rest upon the decisions of President Trump, Mr. Vance, members of the Cabinet, and other decision-makers. We ask that you break the power of any wicked enemy who seeks to give them wrong counsel or misinformation. May every decision they make be guided by prayer, the Holy Spirit, and complete obedience to your purposes and plans.
We pray for your divine protection over our nation and her leaders. You are our refuge and fortress, the God in whom we trust. We declare that no enemy, no terror, no arrow, no pestilence, and no plague will come near her.
We lift this prayer in the powerful and matchless name of Jesus Christ. AMEN.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12 NKJV)
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.
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;
For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone. (Psalm 91:1-12 NKJV)
Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. (Matthew 18:18 NKJV)
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. (James 1:5 NKJV)
For the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous. (Psalm 37:17 NIV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5–6 NKJV)
Commit your works to the Lord,
And your thoughts will be established. (Proverbs 16:3 NKJV)
God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble. (Psalm 46:1 NKJV)
