PRAYING THROUGH OUR NATIONAL DELIVERANCEby Wanda Alger |
In the next few weeks surrounding the national election, we can expect to see increased demonic activity and spiritual warfare. It’s not because the enemy is getting the upper hand or the saints are not prevailing. In fact, it’s the exact opposite. The reason for the increased chaos in the second heaven is because we are going through a national deliverance.
Demonic spirits, regional strongholds, and national principalities are being exposed, uprooted, and expelled – and they are mad about their eviction. As seen throughout biblical history, they are putting up a fight and wanting to cause a scene as they know their reign is coming to an end. The ongoing collective repentance, praise, and intercession across this nation is having an impact and we are entering into a breakthrough season of liberation!
There are already threats of enemy forces stirring up violence and rioting following the election. But we don’t have to wait and wonder about the aftermath. We have the spiritual authority to divert enemy schemes, subvert opposing plots, and diminish demonic destruction by DIRECTING THE SPIRITUAL TRAFFIC in this hour.
Just as Jesus had command over demonic forces and redirected their destructive plans, we have the same authority to limit the manifestations and distractions AS THEY LEAVE. Let’s follow His example by speaking to the storms, silencing the voices, and establishing Kingdom rule in our land in the coming weeks:
And He awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?” (Mark 4:39-40)
We raise our voices above the demonic storms and winds of witchcraft over this nation and say, “Peace, Be Still!” We declare the supremacy of the One who created the winds and the waves and reigns forevermore as the Prince of Peace. Knowing their power is beneath us, we speak in faith to the storms and declare that we will not be hindered in getting to the other side of our victory! We declare calm and stillness over the waves as the GOD OF PEACE CRUSHES satan beneath our feet!
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. (Luke 4:35)
We declare the peace of God will rule and reign in this time of deliverance. We declare every demonic spirit must be silent and do no harm to person or property as they are being expelled from our communities, regions, and nation. We say, BE SILENT and LEAVE without delay, distraction, or destruction, in Jesus’ name.
And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” (Mark 9:25)
Through the authority of Christ, we place a muzzle on the mouths of those fueled by demonic agendas and place a restraining order on their activity. We declare there will be no sideshows, spotlights, or celebrity attention given to their eviction and that no media outlets will draw a crowd to their tantrums. They WILL NOT take center stage in this hour of deliverance. Rather, the national collective will SEE and HEAR about the healing of our nation and the victory of our Lord and Savior through the mouths of those set free and set on fire for You!
And whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, they fell down before Him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.” (Mark 3:11)
We declare that every demonic spirit and opposing force will ultimately acknowledge the supremacy of Christ and the reality of His Kingdom, even as they leave. We join with heaven in declaring that every knee must bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and His Word remains true forever. We declare that even the enemies of God must acknowledge His Lordship and submit to His rule.
But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to Me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.” (Matthew 16:23)
We declare our minds and hearts are submitted to the Father’s plans and His Kingdom purposes for our nation. We ask for Your plumbline of truth to rightly divide between flesh and spirit so that we can stand together in unity. Strengthen our resolve to recognize stumbling blocks and stand against the schemes of man and the temptations of the flesh. We pledge allegiance to the Father of Lights to establish our steps, direct our paths, and sanctify our journey for the glory of the King of all Kings!
As blood-bought believers who have been granted heaven’s authority to rule and reign on the earth, we stand AS ONE to declare that this nation is ONE NATION UNDER GOD. We will not be divided, but stand together to see freedom come to the captives, liberty to those in bondage, and heaven’s justice to the poor. We declare that these next few months will be GLORIOUS and filled with TESTIMONIES of breakthrough and deliverance for all who have called on Your name. For the glory of God, the Father, through His Son, Jesus Christ – AMEN!
