Praying for our Nation

, ,

I am feeling led to do something out of the box regarding praying for our nation. I am looking for intercessors across the country with a heart for America to join with me in an intercessory prophetic act. The Lord showed me glass jars of dirt. Each jar had a paper taped on it with the name of the state the dirt represented. I saw all 50 states represented.

Here is what the Holy Spirit is prompting me to do: pray Scripture over and speak life to the jars of dirt. Declare God’s governmental authority and His righteousness and justice, pray for healing in the land and the breaking of curses spoken over it. Declare healing on every level and the release of angelic ministry to carry out the Word. Every. Day. Speak words of love to the dirt.

If you cannot pray and intercede from a place of love and grace, please refrain from joining me. If you are unable to commit to praying but want to send me  a jar of dirt from your state, message me.

Please share this post. God’s Word never returns void, let’s pray heaven into earth for America!

Shalom!

          Isaiah 54:14-15 You will be secure under a government that is just and fair.Your enemies will stay far away.You will live in peace,and terror will not come near. If any nation comes to fight you,it is not because I sent them.Whoever attacks you will go down in defeat.

          This is the first Scripture I am declaring over NY!

    It really tugged at my heart of how we pray for God to heal our land. I remembered my daughter brought me a bottle of sand from Pensacola FL. I always relate this city to the Brownsville Revival in the 90s. I have that sand!!! In a few weeks I’ll be at a prayer ladies retreat on joy and deliverance. I’m bringing something to the beach house to collect sand to bring back. I think of how the tide washes in and currents move through the Gulf. I’m going to pray for the Gulf States. Might even mix a little Pensacola sand with it!

        Prudence, I’m in the Hill Country of Texas where all the flooding took place this weekend. Roads are washed out and looking for alternate routes back to Houston where we live. I’m collecting some mud for YOU and for my prayer for the Nation. Bastrop County was hit with fires that devastated the area a few years back, now the floods. It’s significant where I am right now…If I were a bird it’s a straight 10 mile flight to the Capital building of TEXAS, I can see it from top of the hill!!

        PRAY FOR: WIMBERLEY TX, 12 people still missing, 400 homes washed into the Blanco River. BASTROP TX: Damn broke closed major route out of Austin. AUSTIN TX downtown flooded. HOUSTON TX flooded overnight & emergency management suggesting folks don’t get out to school or work as water could rise again with run off.

        Blessings!!! ~Debi

          Thank you Debi for letting me know, the news doesn’t always report everything. Keeping TX in prayer.

          Isaiah 59:19 “So shall they fear The name of the Lord from the west, And His glory from the rising of the sun; When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him (NKJV).

    Prudence God Bless you, I love what God has given you to do, it is wonderful. Is there a way to join you in praying over all the dirt. Praying from CALIFORNIA. Do you have this dirt? This is so wonderful.

      Hi Gail! You may join me! I have posted a map with the states I have or know are covered, and still need. I actually do have a jar from California and I know there is at least one other intercessor praying who sent me a picture of her jar of dirt, complete with seashell! It is always good to have more than one voice in each state, especially when waging warfare. There is power in agreement! Thank you so much for joining! I’m so excited about what God is doing through this, I can hardly contain myself!!
