When Moses’ father-in-law, Jethro, came to talk to him while Israel was in the wilderness, he gave Moses wise advice about rulers in the land.
Jethro said, “Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.” (Exodus 18:21)
King David said, “2) The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue. 3) The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.” (II Samuel 23:2,3)
We have very few rulers in our nation who meet these criteria. We can pour out our supplications before God that He would raise up such rulers.
2. That God would put a stop to the agenda of those who would seek to destroy our freedoms and our nation.
H. R. 1 –
This is a 1.9 trillion dollar spending bill that is wasteful and has little to do with giving relief to the American people who are suffering financially and in many other ways because of the pandemic. This bill has been passed in the House and Senate and is now being sent back to the Senate for further review.
Pray for a bill to be introduced and passed that is sensible, helpful, and puts Americans first.
H. R. 5 –
This bill basically gives the LGBTQ agenda and other agendas that do not fear God a wide open license to sin. It also suppresses religious freedom in many ways.
Homosexuality, same-sex marriages, Sodomy, transgenderism, and bestiality are all abominations to God. Here are some Bible verses about it.
“22) Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. 23) Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.” (Leviticus 18:22,23)
Also, consider these verses from Romans chapter one:
“24) Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves… 26) For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27) And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly.”
(Romans 1:24-27a)
There is judgment for those who continue in such sin. God warned the Israelites, “24) Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: 25) And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.” (Leviticus 18:22)
God casts nations out of their land for such sins. Also, God says people will suffer the results of their sin in their own bodies, “…and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet… 32) Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” (See Romans 1:27b and 32) You may want to read all the verses in between as well.
God does love those who are caught up in these abominations. But He does not want them to continue in their sin. He wants them to come to Him for salvation and be born again so that He can give them a new life, a new heart, and new thoughts and actions.
3. For all the rulers in our nation to be saved.
“1) I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2) For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3) For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4) Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.” (I Timothy 2:1-4)
4. That men and women with ungodly life styles and those who support and promote evil and ungodliness will not get elected to office. But that they will get saved.
5. For Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates to be saved. This will help not only our nation but the nations of the world as well.
6. For God to be merciful and put an end to the Corona Virus if it is His will.
7. That freedom will not be suppressed in this nation.
In Virginia, legislation is being proposed to consider flag regulation.
If the bill passes, people will be limited to flying only two flags. The flag poles can only be 25 feet high and the flag must be limited to 24 square feet.
One veteran is concerned because this would reduce the size of the flag to smaller than what can be draped over a military coffin. He says this is like an affront to Virginia’s veterans.

8. For God to stop production and distribution of the vaccine.
I know I will be criticized for this and that this is very controversial, but I believe that the vaccine is both unproven and outright dangerous. There have been many reports of injuries, life threatening allergic reactions, and serious bad reactions.
There have also been reports of at least one thousand deaths in the U.S. and one thousand deaths in the U.K. as a result of the affects of the vaccine.
By February 7th, there were 1,170 reported deaths in the US from the vaccine. This is about .003% of the recipients. These reports represent the first ones vaccinated; that is, the elderly, and those most at risk.
For the US, you can find out more information from the VAERS vaccine adverse reaction reporting system.
Also, one CNA who worked in nursing homes risked his job to report that many were dying of delayed reactions to the vaccine.
You can learn more about that here.
Also, how many simply died in their sleep or developed other reactions and died, and these were not reported or were counted as unrelated deaths?
There is a lot of information and there are warnings about the vaccine that you can look up if you just think outside the box a bit.
Remember, our bodies are the temple of the Holy Ghost. Do we want to really put these vaccines in our bodies when we are not even sure of their effectiveness or of the long-term consequences? Would we not want to find out about that first? This body belongs to God and not to us.
