Prayer for the Peaceful Transition of Government -  Jamie Rohrbaugh, IFA Contributing Writer | January 2, 2025

Reading Time: 4 minutes
 

Do you feel a sense of victory after this last election? If so, for many, the temptation is to sit back, rest, and cease from our contending. But, I encourage you today not to rest from your prayers, but rather to redouble your efforts.

Connect with others in your state in prayer.

Although the American people won many victories for the cause of righteousness in this election, the enemy would love to stop our newly elected leaders from taking office.

That is why we must continue to pray. Only God—the One who brought us the victories we are standing on today—can preserve those victories and bring people into office. In order to see that happen, we must pray.   continue >>>

Running with Horses in 2025! - Faith Marie Baczko, Oakville, Ontario, Canada - Jan 1, 2025

Will You Run With the Horses?

God recently spoke to me from a prophetic word I wrote in my devotional book, Word to the Warrior: Devotional & Journal for the Army of God. The title of the chapter is "Will You Ride?"

"Will you run with the horses? Will you embrace the wind of the Spirit and run with My troops? Will you ride on the heights with Me over the heads of principalities and powers? Come away, and ride with Me over mountains and into valleys where you will bring My light!

"Throw fear and caution to the wind and follow My voice. I will never fail or abandon you! You have been created and chosen for this! You will feel My arms around you as We ride together releasing light and freedom to captive souls. They're waiting and groaning for your coming. Hear the sound of their cries."

2025 and Beyond - Rick Joyner - Word for the Week

       2024 saw the beginning of a profound change in the political landscape of America. Some nations are ahead of America in this, and some are behind. However, it is obviously a worldwide movement. In 2025, both the changes and the battles over them will surely spread and deepen.

      It is going to be exciting and challenging to ride this extraordinary wave of change. Even so, it will leave us stronger and more stable. To prepare, we need to seek to understand what we learned through the turmoil of the last few years and apply those lessons. This will help us face the future from a more stable foundation so we can use these changes to build, not tear down.

      First, we should consider that human governments can only do some things well. Governments can actually be counterproductive when they engage in things for which they have no divine mandate. When governments get out of their lane, this inevitably results in discord and division. Take education, for example. When our federal Department of Education was formed in 1979, our education system was ranked near the top of the world. It then began a long slide toward the bottom. Why has this been allowed?   continue >>>

IFA - Intercessors For America - 2024: A Year in Revival
Lord, thank You for the many ways You’re reviving our nation! May we continue toward awakening!
Reading Time: 5 minutes
 

This year opened with 100,000 young people gathering at various events to worship the Lord, revival sparked on a dozen university campuses (all but one secular), and many events across the country and around the world give hope there’s more to come.

Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.

Even secular political commentator Tucker Carlson believes we’re seeing revival.

I asked Dr. Vernon M. Whaley, Associate Provost of the School of Music and Worship Arts at Trevecca Nazarene University, if he believes we’re seeing another Great Awakening. He quoted the secular, liberal, and cultural political writer for the Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times, and the Los Angeles Times Lauren Sandler from her book Righteous: Dispatches from the Evangelical Youth Movement: “We are poised before the next Great Awakening in American History.”  continue >>>

Politics and Faith - Rick Joyner

      Since President-Elect Donald Trump first announced his intent to run for U.S. President in 2015, he has been one of the most hated people of our time, even by many who for decades had claimed to be his friends. Still, he shocked the world and won the office. Then, he became perhaps the most embattled president of all time.

      When he was removed from office in 2020, the battles against him did not stop. Prosecutors on all levels filed charges that would not likely have been considered legal if they were not against him. His enemies were intent on either putting him in prison or the grave, and one or the other seemed likely. They used the resources of the U.S. government in every way that could be devised to persecute him.

      Now, it seems that he has prevailed. Let’s hope so, but we must not quit praying for him. Keeping him alive until the inauguration will likely keep a legion of angels busy. He’s taken on the job of trying to bring order and peace to a world falling apart. He’s facing crises on many fronts that are beyond human remedy, or human wisdom, to fix.   continue >>>

THEY WERE INVITED

by  | Dec 24, 2024 | Mario Murillo Ministries 

They were invited.

Something strange, wonderful and unexplainable is happening to people around the world. Birth pangs of anticipation grip them.

They are in an upheaval. A centrifugal force spins away all clutter, lesser purposes and pursuits. They are being pulled toward some great event.

Hollywood tries to imitate this. In the movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind from the 1970s we see the counterfeit version.

The military has connected with aliens. The mother ship will meet them at Devil’s Tower in Wyoming. But the public cannot know about this. So the Army fakes a pandemic to keep people away from the site.

Their elaborate scheme does not keep a special group from coming. The military decides to gas them and to put them to sleep so they can be removed.  continue >>>

The Spirit Is Blowing a Fresh Wind on the Gift of Prophecy- Wanda Alger, Winchester, VA - Dec 21, 2024

 

Do Not Quench the Spirit of Prophecy

I had a powerful dream about prophecy. And for those who follow prophetic ministry, and prophetic ministers, you will understand why it is probably no coincidence that this dream comes now. The Lord is inserting a strong admonition into this conversation. We must not allow either the failures of others or the fear of man to quench the Spirit of prophecy and rob us of the much-needed and life-changing words of the Lord.

In the dream, my husband (a pastor) and I were in a church service, and I was watching a visiting minister pray for a man who had come forward. People were prayerfully watching to see how this man would receive ministry. The prayers being offered were heart-felt and sincere, though there was no visible evidence of them impacting the man being ministered to.

After the minister was done praying, the man who came forward looked at the minister and cried out, "But, what do YOU SEE?" It was a desperate plea from his heart for the minister to dig deeper and speak from the depths of the Spirit.  continue >>>

December 18, 2024 How Can You Leave 2024...and Make 2025 Better? - Karen Hardin

 How do you want to leave 2024—and enter 2025? What will you leave behind and what will you take with you? How we enter/leave a job, position and even a year is important. We have an opportunity as we enter 2025 both corporately (as a nation) and individually, but it requires an action on our part. Are you ready to break off the yoke that has been on you? Yokes aren’t always a bad thing. A young ox is yoked to a more mature and experienced ox to train them how to pull together and walk. Also, we are yoked to Christ when we receive him as our Lord. Matthew 11:28-30 says, “Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light” (NIV 1995). But what about yokes that have been placed on us by others or because of events? Many are carrying yokes of oppression, depression, disappointment, lack, rage, etc. from what has been done to you or happened to you. The longer it has been there, the more it has seemed like it would always be there. But it doesn’t have to be. To be free requires an action on our part.

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THE CHURCH TO MAKE NICE WITH DEMOCRATS

NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR THE CHURCH TO MAKE NICE WITH DEMOCRATS

Did you hear about the woman in Seattle who bit, stabbed and then hacked her father to death with an ice ax because Trump won? Here’s what the New York Post reported:

“A space rocket program manager butchered her father with an ice ax on election night after a breakdown following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory — and was found smiling and clapping, covered in her loved one’s blood, cops said.

“Corey Burke considered the bloody rampage — in which she allegedly strangled, bit and hacked her 67-year-old father in the $800,000 Seattle home they shared — an “act of liberation,” charging documents allege.

Well, did you hear about this? Probably not. We both know that if it had been a Trump supporter, it would have been plastered on all the news shows.

“Burke, 33, is a training program manager at Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos’ spacecraft company, according to her LinkedIn, and is married to prominent transgender writer Samantha Leigh Allen, public records show.

“Burke sat down next to her father and watched him die, then smashed all the windows in the house in what she described as “an act of liberation,” officers reported.

“When cops arrived, they found Burke “clapping … because she was so happy.”

Well, did you hear about this? Probably not. We both know that if it had been a Trump supporter, it would have been plastered on all the news shows.

Another reason for the news blackout is that she is married to a famous transgender writer.

Did Biden, Harris, and Walz feed the violence?  You decide. Every chance they got, they said “Trump is Hitler”, and repeatedly screamed that Trump would destroy democracy.

Even some of their own warned them to stop inciting violence. They did not care. And the silence over this grisly murder proves they still do not care. But it gets worse.   continue >>>

Hope for the Hopeless - Karen Hardin

Hopelessness is like a slow death. Without something to put hope in and to look forward to, where does the world turn? Without God, the world turns to things that will distract them from the intense pain in their souls. For some it is alcohol or drugs. For others it involves cutting oneself or some other self harm practice. While others fill their emptiness through emotional or physical relationships with someone they hope will love or affirm them. These people are in every nation on earth. They are all around us. 

We know that God is the only one who can fill all those dying from hopelessness. Our team members in China and Cambodia are working hard to do just that. Your prayers and support make it possible for these teams to do their work. Thank you. 

THE REFINER’S FIRE IS EXPOSING SINS OF THE HEART, MAKING WAY FOR HIS GLORY  - Wanda Alger

So, I will show My greatness and My holiness and make Myself known in the eyes of many nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord.

Ezekiel 38:23 ESV

The exposures of sexual sin and moral compromise in the camp are but a symptom of a much larger problem. Deviant behaviors and ungodly practices are but the overflow of the heart and mind. In bringing these fruitless deeds to the light, the very thing the Lord is uncovering is a lack of holiness and purity within His House. continue >>>

Back to the Future - Andrew Whalen, Peoria, Illinois - Dec 12, 2024

 

[Editor's note: Below are the notes that Andrew Whalen shared from during his recent interview on ElijahStreams. We encourage our readers to pray through them and watch Andrew's interview here for full context.]

Q and Praying Medic Dream

(Excerpt from Andrew Whalen's book, Dreams to Save a Nation, DAY 11: Q and Praying Medic Dream.)

March 18, 2018:

In the dream, I found myself prophesying out loud, "If the Church would listen to a man named Praying Medic speak about something called Q, then the Church would really understand what is going on and know how to pray."

 The Book of Revelation, Part 10 - Rick Joyner

In the book of Revelation, there is a prophetic outline of God’s plan to restore the world to the paradise it was originally created to be. We also see God taking leadership over the earth and mankind being restored to a special place of fellowship with Him. So, as we seek understanding of the Revelation, we must keep in mind how the end of this age will unfold and prepare for God Himself to come to the earth and dwell among men. We are preparing a home for Him.

 As we unite with Him in this great purpose, we begin to see how He is working through our experience in this life to prepare for “the period of the restoration of all things” (see Acts 3:21). A primary purpose for the church age is to call and prepare those who will reign with Jesus over the earth during this period.

Rosangela Atte: A December to Remember! - Maple Ridge, BC, Canada - Dec 9, 2024

Recently one morning, the Lord reminded me of this word He gave me two years ago, and instructed me to reshare some excerpts of it.

He said, "Rosangela, I haven't forgotten about the promises I have made to My people. Tell them that I Am about to remember them! Tell them again, that this will be a December to remember!"

"But Zion said, 'The Lord has forsaken me, and my Lord has forgotten me.'

'Can a woman forget her nursing child, and not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, yet I will not forget you. See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; your walls are continually before Me.'" (Isaiah 49:14–16 NKJV)

A Christmas Miracle That Overcame Hate - Karen Hardin

Messages from political leaders or media hosts have repeatedly stoked fear that freedoms will be lost and our democracy destroyed with this past election. These messages are intent on creating fear, hate and division.

Dr. Martin Luther King once said, “Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.” Christmas opens the door for a miracle of love to be released.

THE CHRISTMAS TRUCE
Forgiveness, hope and love can emerge in the most unexpected places and ways because of shared values—such as Christmas.

In a story almost forgotten in history, late on Christmas Eve 1914 during World War I, British soldiers in their trenches heard German soldiers, hunkered down in their trenches, singing Christmas carols. They reported that a few small Christmas trees with candles could be seen standing along the line of the trench. Even on Christmas eve, the German soldiers sitting in the dark, cold and wet trenches, mustered the Christmas spirit to sing. The trenches were close enough that the British soldiers heard it. 

Word for the Week - The Book of Revelation, Part 9 - Rick Joyner

We have been talking about the Lord restoring mankind and the earth. In Reelation, mankind falls to its deepest depravity before the Lord comes to rule and restore. He said it would be like “the days of Noah,” which saw the worst corruption and evil the world would experience until the end of this age. In His parable about the wheat and the tares, Jesus said, “the end of the age is the harvest” (see Matthew 13:39).

      In this parable, Jesus was speaking of how the wheat and tares would grow up together. The harvest is when all the seeds that have been sown will come to full maturity, so both the good and evil sown into man will come to full maturity at the end of this age. Then, we will experience evil in its fullness—the full maturity of the sin of man personified in “the man of sin”—and the full maturity of the nature of Christ will be manifested in His people. This is predicted in Isaiah 60:1-3: “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; but the Lord will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you. And nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”

      Most of the books I’ve read and messages I’ve heard preached on the book of Revelation focus on the evil, the antichrist, and the tribulation. By far the most exciting and wonderful thing about the end of the age is what is being done to prepare the way for His kingdom and how the glory of the Lord is going to be manifested in His people. The light and glory of the Lord are going to overpower the deepest darkness, the worst evil. As we see in the prophecy above, the light wins, and the nations will come to the light.  continue >>>

The Wilderness Is for Words - Sara Whitten,  Kerrville, TX - Nov 24, 2024

What Is a Wilderness Season?

What is a wilderness season? When we think of "wilderness" what comes to mind is an area that is unfamiliar, uncomfortable, and uncertain. There are no maps, trails, or human conveniences built in. A wilderness is any land that has not been modified or cultivated. It hasn't yet been settled or borne fruit.

In the spirit, this translates to a season in which we are in unfamiliar territory. The path ahead is uncharted, and we are without the comforts we typically lean on. It can be a rugged place where we feel unprepared, or unequipped. It can also tend to feel punishing, though we find in Scripture that the wilderness is actually not a bad thing.
