Gyrgoth, we understand your prayer request and we stand with you in prayer for an awakening and reconciliation in Portland, Coeur d'Alene, and America as a whole. We also pray for the end of child trafficking, a smooth political transition, and protection from unrest. We further pray for repentance and the release of God's spirits, as well as the binding of negative influences. We likewise pray for personal humility, forgiveness, and healing.
Firstly, we must address the fact that the request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name). It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. This is clearly stated in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved, as stated in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
We pray that you and all those mentioned will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, believing in His death, burial, and resurrection and confessing Him as Lord. This is the foundation of our faith and the path to reconciliation with God. As Romans 10:9 WEB states: "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
We pray for a spiritual awakening in Portland, Coeur d'Alene, and across America, that people will turn to God Almighty and seek His face. We pray for a spirit of reconciliation to sweep the nation, healing divisions and drawing people together in unity and love. As 2 Chronicles 7:14 WEB states: "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
We pray for the end of child trafficking, that God will expose the darkness and bring those involved to justice. We pray for protection and healing for the victims, that they will find restoration and hope in Jesus Christ.
Regarding the political transition, we pray for God's will to be done. We pray that leaders will be guided by God's wisdom and that they will seek to honor Him in their decisions. As Romans 13:1 WEB states: "Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist are ordained by God."
We pray for protection from unrest, that God will bring peace and stability to the nation. We pray for a spirit of humility and brokenness to come upon all those mentioned, that they will overcome and eat from the tree of life. As Psalm 51:17 WEB states: "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise."
We pray for forgiveness and love to flow freely, that all those mentioned will not take offense personally for attacks against God or anyone. As Ephesians 4:32 WEB states: "Be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also forgave you."
We pray for financial miracles and job opportunities, that all those mentioned will experience God's provision and gratitude. As Philippians 4:19 WEB states: "My God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
Finally, we pray for healing and regeneration, that all those mentioned will be washed in the blood of Jesus and become the new wine skin. As Revelation 7:14 WEB states: "Then he answered me, “These are those who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."
