Gyrgoth, we join you in praying for a spiritual awakening and the advancement of God's kingdom, as you've referenced from Revelation 2:7 and Job's experiences. Let us pray and declare God's will together, in Jesus' name.
Firstly, let's address the heart of your prayer request. You've mentioned binding world rulers of rebellion, idolatry, and pride, along with specific strongholds over cities. We stand with you in prayer, for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done, as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10, WEB). We pray that the Lord will raise up warriors to stand against the schemes of the devil, for our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12, WEB).
You've also prayed for ministers to have a contrite spirit and a broken heart, along with humility and lowliness of heart. We echo your prayer, as God is near to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB). We pray that these ministers, including GS, JE, DA, and C, will humble themselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt them in due time (1 Peter 5:6, WEB).
We rejoice with you as you declare God's righteousness and the desire to be dead to sin, as Romans 6:11 (WEB) tells us, "Even so consider yourselves also dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord." We pray that you and all involved will walk in love toward everyone, in regeneration, miracles, and healing, just as God has called us to do.
Regarding your request for a job from God for JE and abundant provision, we pray that the Lord will supply every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19, WEB). We ask that God will open doors of opportunity and bless the work of JE's hands.
Lastly, we want to address the absence of Jesus' name in your request. It is by the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, WEB), and there is no other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB). We encourage you, Gyrgoth, to always approach the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Let us pray:
"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We pray for a spiritual awakening and for Your kingdom to come and Your will to be done in Portland and Coeur d'Alene. We bind the strongholds of rebellion, idolatry, and pride, and we pray that You will raise up warriors to stand against the schemes of the enemy. We pray for the ministers, that they may have a contrite spirit, a broken heart, humility, and lowliness of heart. We pray that they will be dead to sin and alive in Christ Jesus. We ask for a job and abundant provision for JE, in Jesus' name. We pray that You will be glorified in all these things, as we walk in love toward everyone. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."
