The Washington State Prayer Targets are developed by an apostolic and prophetic council of leaders representing the church, government, business, education, healthcare, media and family spheres each month. Proverbs 24:3-6 admonishes us that there is wisdom in a multitude of counsel. By wise counsel build and by wise counsel wage war. So with that in mind, we invite you to do the word found in Isaiah 44:6-7 which says, “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: I am the First and I am the Last; Besides Me there is no God. And who can proclaim as I do? Then let him declare it and set it in order for Me…”
Church Sphere
Troy from Northwest Life Center chairs the Church council. He says the need for the restoration of David’s Tabernacle (24/7 prayer, praise, and worship) interacting and working with leaders from the 7 spheres of society has never been greater.
Let us pray and proclaim
- We rejoice as we see an increase in the anointing for deliverance, healing and souls saved.
- The remnant, the bridal company of believers who make themselves ready and prepare (pre-prayer) the way of the LORD come forth (Joel 2:1-3:14, Matthew 24, 2 Peter 3:10-12).
- Pray for salvation of Israel, the peace at Jerusalem and our Father’s will regarding the end-time events. Romans 11:1, Psalm 122, Joel 2-3, Daniel 7:9-25, Revelation 19-22 Deuteronomy 32:26-29 and Zechariah 12-14.
- That the Church would prepare for persecution and the Day of the LORD. 1 Peter 3:10-12
- Recognize one of the biggest weapons Satan uses is accusation, deception and illusion. Let us pray for a maturing of the Church who’ll destroy the works of the enemy (1 John 3:8), speak the truth (Ephesians 4:15), restore the fallen (Galatians 6:1-2) and deliver and heal the afflicted. (Mark 16:15-17, Matthew 28:19-20, Isaiah 61).
- We pray for an awakening to occur among the youth with regard to discipleship, house churches, church planting, and evangelism.
Virginia from FireStorm chairs the family mountain and she says pray that:
- Families will prepare their hearts for the Messiah. They will make new covenants with God as they seek His face, putting time aside for Him. They will not let schooling or sports take over the time that is God’s.
- Parents will direct their children back to how to deal with difficulties. We will root out every family curse through deliverance and be changed in to Christ’s image.
- Parents will talk and pray with their children/young adults regarding Israel and what is happening in our country and the world.
- Pray for our single young adults that their character would develop as their future mate’s chareter is developed and they would choose to wait for the kingdom minded partner God planned for them in Psalm 139:16. Help them remain pure as they wait.
Government Sphere
Corruption and evil continue to be exposed from the White House to the State House and even to the courthouse. We cry for justice and righteousness, honesty and integrity to be restored. The government overreach is part of the rude awakening that is leading to a great awakening. Therefore let us pray:
- We rejoice as many local typically Democrat-led governments are beginning to correct their policies and laws as they acknowledge that defunding police and removing the consequences of laws only encouraged the gross increase in crime since 2016.
- That candidates would pray in advance together to discover God’s will and then cooperate with our Father’s plan rather than compete against each other, wasting money, time and resources amongst God’s people.
- Let confusion reign in the enemy’s camp and let God’s people rise to the top to serve our Father’s purpose and this state in this generation.
- 2 Samuel 23:3 – The Rock of Israel said, “He who rules over men must be just….” LORD, give us just men and women to serve in civil government.
Pray the Ekklesia acts like Jesus in Revelation 19:11.
- We thank God for the initiatives that made it. Click here to hear how the Left is having a meltdown over these initiatives. Visit My Family My Choice for more information.
- Beware of lawfare and the lawlessness that continues to be practiced by lawmakers. Pray for their replacement and the re-establishment of that which is right.
- Psalm 94:20-23 Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, Have fellowship with You? They gather together against the life of the righteous And condemn innocent blood. But the LORD has been my defense, And my God the rock of my refuge. He has brought on them their own iniquity, And shall cut them off in their own wickedness; The LORD our God shall cut them off.
- LORD, remember the words spoken by your prophets over this state and this nation. Deliver us from lawlessness, each one called to the governmental sphere, like former President Trump, fulfill the purpose you made them for in this nation.
Business Sphere
Pray that we in the business community will be able to hear the voice of the Lord clearly and obey Him quickly when opportunities are seen. Let us pray, proclaim and declare:
- We rejoice as people take action against the companies who are advancing a godless woke agenda like Bud Light, Target, Disney, etc… prayer + action = kingdom impact.
- God’s people, business people, would prosper and they would continue to be generous and give tithes, offerings, first fruits, and alms. That they would be like Isaac who sowed in the land of famine and then that year reaped 100-fold. (Genesis 26:12)
- That they would not give to dead works nor use their profit for unclean use, but would rather, pray and put it where God shows them…. where God chooses to make His name abide. (Deuteronomy 26:13-15).
- That Dave Hodsgon’s message of “that all shall prosper” would permeate society’s understanding and our state.
- The boycotts are working on Target, Bud Light, etc… continue to not only pray but use your dollars to support traditional family values, truth and justice.
- Local businesses would increase the number of local farms, and healthier food options and encourage an alternative economy and that God gives these businesses, farmers and ranchers wisdom on how to respond to the evil strategy seeking to use inflation and taxes to undermine good business practices.
Education Sphere
Testimony: First, we begin by praising God for the 30-40 students in Edmonds who prayed to receive Christ after school with some even being baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. We rejoice as the young minister (21 & 19) whom God has sent to reach youth have a plan to reach 25 more schools in 2024.
Let Us Pray: Kathy is a retired teacher who says a local teacher reported: The plans of the enemy to remove God from schools have taken full effect. Let us pray:
* for an increasing agreement among believers to remove the ungodly agendas from our schools at every level: preschool to post-college students, school boards, teachers unions, and administration.
* for angels to be released to make the plans and purposes of God successful and to block activities contrary to the word of God.
* for believers to speak forth the truth in every realm of the school environment.
* for an increase in the spread of the word of God and revival in schools through teachers, administrative employees, coaches, and ministers like Wanda, Enoch, and Lauren.
* for an increase of Bible clubs in schools and ministers sent into the schools.
* for the development of more churches and prayer groups to stand in the gap for schools, teachers, and students.
Media Sphere
Let us pray and proclaim:
- The Church in Hollywood and the entertainment industry hits the mark.
- Traditional platforms learn their lessons and stop attacking God’s design for families and more.
- The unholy alliance between government and media is destroyed.
- “The Chosen” has a great response to the release of season 4 in three months.
Healthcare Sphere
Diana a retired nurse chairs the healthcare council. She says, Fox News reported in, “AI in Healthcare: The perils of Biden’s executive orders.” Opinion by Joe Grogan & Naomi Lopez. This 111 page executive order was announced on October 30. This raises many concerns & questions. AI will be the salvation of our lives & the federal government will control it. If that wasn’t enough. In Politico, “Doctor in Your Pocket: Google’s Plan to Educate Washington & Dominate AI” Story by Ruth Reader. Google wants to make your cell phone a doctor in your pocket that relies on the company’s AI.” Google is moving ahead in this area by setting their own rules & regulations & starting a pilot project with a large medical corporation presently.
With this in mind let us PRAY & PROCLAIM:
- Give the church prayerful discernment & wisdom in the body of Christ in seeking out any medical treatment. Mathew 10:16 “I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, therefore be shrewd as serpents & innocent as doves.”
- The evil agendas & motives will be exposed of big tech companies & our federal government in the area of AI in within the medical system.
- That the church become informed on AI in the medical system & the Holy Spirit direct our steps on decisions & actions to take. Proverbs 3:5,6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will direct your paths.”
- That the church will know that the Lord is their healer. Exodus 15:26 ” If you will give earnest heed to the voice of the LORD your God, & do what is right in His sight, & give ear to His commandments , & keep all His statutes, I will put none of these diseases on you which I have put on the Egyptians, for I the LORD, am your HEALER!”
