Lately, I've been prompted by the Holy Spirit to pray and worship more often. It happens at all hours, but I've found myself praying and worshipping at night frequently. I've never done so many midnight watches. Sometimes I go into the midnight watch intentionally and sometimes I am awakened by the Holy Spirit and prompted to pray and other times I have trouble going back to sleep and then realize the Holy Spirit is saying to pray and worship. For those of you who find yourself sleepless, this is often something you need to be doing. The presence of God is pure joy and comfort and rest.
There are many things I pray. With that said, I want to share a couple of things that the Holy Spirit has led me to pray.
I pray for my community, state, region, and nation. I am led to pray for revival and awakening to sweep through. I believe God wants to do one last sweep through every nation before Jesus comes for His people. I see the beginnings of that even now. We must pray it through to realization and completion and not sit back in complacency. People's eternal destinies are at stake.
I am also moved to pray for the upcoming election and electoral process in the USA. I pray for electoral integrity. I ask God to expose and thwart electoral fraud. I pray the electoral process will be true to the will of the people. I pray for the protection of candidates, then the elected, their families, those surrounding them, and their supporters. I ask God to defeat all the spells, curses, plans and schemes of darkness, evil, corrupt, and wicked spirits and people-- that they will fall in their own trap, fall on their own sword, have their bows and arrows broken and their shields shattered. It may be a long, trying, chaotic, and/or violent process, but I ask God to have His way in the election and electoral process. I pray that God will make America great and healthy again.
And I ask Jesus to have His way in everything and I proclaim His lordship and kingship over all things and in all things. And then I just worship Him as Creator, Savior, Lord, and King. Hallelujah!
Join me in praying these things. Join me in the night watch. Join me at all hours. God wants to partner with you too!
