God's Battle Plan for Praying about Russia and Ukraine - Intercessors for America

Yesterday Vladimir Putin addressed the Russian Federation for an hour, and at the end he said he was sending "peacekeeping" military forces into two

1) Pray that God would bind any and all principalities influencing Putin and affecting Russia.

But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses, did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”(Jude 1:9)

Vicki shared a wonderful encouraging story straight from scripture that is similar to what is going on in Russia.

In 2 Kings 18, Hezekiah is afraid of the threats from the king of the Assyrian Army. Senaccherib threatened Jerusalem, purposely provoking and trying to instill fear in the people and the King. In 2 Kings 19, Hezekiah humbly responded through prayer, and in desperation, cried out to the Lord. He went into the Lord’s temple and spread the threat letter and prayed before the Lord. (2 Kgs 19:14-19)

IFA Contributing Author Remco Brommett also recently wrote a wonderful piece worth reading about Hezekiah and Sennacherib in his article, “Pray For A New Kind of Prayer Movement.”

Here’s how the Lord responded to Hezekiah: Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says the LORD God of Israel: ‘Because you have prayed to Me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, I have heard.’(2 Kgs 19:20)

Isn’t that beautiful, intercessors? “Because you prayed, I have heard.”

Hezekiah didn’t have long fancy prayers or eloquent words. His heart was broken for his nation. He knew that they were no match for Sennacherib’s army. His prayer was simple, “God, rescue us from his power and everyone will know that you alone are God.” Hezekiah couldn’t, but God could.

Vicki says, “If God could send away Sennacherib’s army, can’t he do the same with the Russians? God doesn’t change. He still is all powerful. He can send his warrior angels to protect the people. Couldn’t he deal with Putin since he holds the king’s heart in his hand? Nothing is impossible with God.”

Let’s take a moment to pray right now, using Hezekiah’s prayer as an example.

Father, we come before you and pray for what is happening with Ukraine and Russia. We ask You Lord to push back the demonic forces that want to provoke a war, and fill lives with fear.

Send Your angels to protect the people, the children and families, and the church. Bend down, O Lord, and listen. Open your eyes, Lord and see. Listen to the threats coming from Vladimir Putin and his council. Lord God, rescue the Ukrainians, and all people who are in danger from his power. Let all the kingdoms of the earth know you alone are God and there is none like you. In Jesus name, amen.

We are instructed by scripture to pray for our leaders–not just godly leaders, but all leaders. It is God who sets them up or removes them. according to Daniel 2:21. He always desires their salvation.

2) Pray for Vladimir Putin to hear the gospel message somehow, whether through the radio or media, or from some courageous person. There is power in the word of God.

The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. (Ps 119:130)

Ukrainians have suffered at the hands of Russians for many years, so there is much animosity and bitterness.

3) Ask the Lord to remove any bitter roots the Ukrainians have towards Russia and that Russians may have toward other nations and peoples.Pray they would experience freedom from bitterness. Pray for open eyes to see where they harbor unforgiveness and for a deeper love of God.

See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.(Heb 12:15)

Intercessors for Ukraine and IFA have consistently prayed that war is not inevitable. Please continue to pray for peace. Nothing is impossible with God.

4) Pray for peace between Ukraine and Russia.

Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry. (Ps. 34:14,15)

In agreement my dear. Amen an amen
