Jim Banks (R)

Oh Lord, In the Name and by the power of Jesus Christ and the Spirit he gives us, we pray for Representative Jim Banks that You would do a work in his life, in his heart that he might see Your Will and discern your direction for him and his purpose and mission in Congress. May he open his heart and mind to see Truth and not be prey to the whims and and weaknesses of society, of harmful, misdirected ideologies and evil influences. Father, keep Rep Banks strong in his guiding principles and stances in Congress and may he seek your guidance, your wisdom and strength that he may he be a strong voice for conservatism and our Constitutional government of freedoms, rights and of Law and Order. Place your hedge of protection over him and his family. Lord God, may it be your will to send the winds of your Holy Spirit over America to bring spiritual awakening and bring a return to our Judea-Christian heritage and Constitution Republic government. Thank you of God for hearing our pleas and for Your blessing over America; do not withdraw it, but sweep the nation with a cleaning spirit.

Father, I lift up Representative Jim Banks to You in prayer. Create in him a clean heart, Oh God, and renew a right spirit within him. May he become the living testimony of the saving power of Jesus Christ. Strengthen him, bless him, guide and protect him. I pray for him to have courage to advance Your Kingdom here on earth as it is in heaven.

Dear Heavenly Father, Those who govern our land need Your help desperately, the devil deceives the nations. Please open the eyes of all of our legislators to The Truth of Your Word and Your Ways and change their hearts to pledge allegiance to You and You only!

Eternal Sovereign, Amid political transitions, we surrender to Your divine will. Guide the choices made in leadership appointments, ensuring that those chosen will serve with integrity and humility, aligning with Your purpose for our nation. In Your name, we pray, Amen.

I pray in agreement with prayer warriors engaged in spiritual warfare on behalf of Representative Jim Banks. We lift him up, stand in the gap under the authority Jesus gives His disciples in Matthew 28:18-19, and pray in Jesus' name that he be surrounded by spirit-filled Christian disciples who are able to speak Your Word of Truth and Your values into his life. We pray in Jesus' name for the binding (Matthew 16:19) of satan's rulers, authorities, powers of this dark world and spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 6:12) and for "the demolish(ing) of arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God," (2 Corinthians 10:5). We pray for the loosing (Matthew 16:19) of open eyes, listening ears and a soft heart that will enable Mr. Banks to receive revelation of Your truth and values into his spirit. We pray that Jim Banks is convicted to receive Your gift of salvation (John 3:16) and "take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ," (2 Cor. 10:5). We pray he be blessed with godly counsel and God-fearing advisors (Proverbs 24). In Jesus name, Amen.

?Ephesians 6:10-20 KJV? [10] Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. [13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. [14] Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; [15] and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; [16] above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. [17] And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: [18] praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; [19] and for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, [20] for which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. ?Psalm 91:1-16 KJV? [1] He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. [2] I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: My God; in him will I trust. [3] Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, And from the noisome pestilence. [4] He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler. [5] Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; Nor for the arrow that flieth by day; [6] Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; Nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. [7] A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; But it shall not come nigh thee. [8] Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold And see the reward of the wicked. [9] Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, Even the most High, thy habitation; [10] There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. [11] For he shall give his angels charge over thee, To keep thee in all thy ways. [12] They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. [13] Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: The young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. [14] Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. [15] He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. [16] With long life will I satisfy him, And shew him my salvation. ?Jeremiah 29:11 KJV? [11] For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. ?Habakkuk 2:14 KJV? [14] For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea. ?Romans 8:37 KJV? [37] Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. ?Psalm 34:7 KJV? [7] The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, And delivereth them. ?Psalm 34:15 KJV? [15] The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, And his ears are open unto their cry.
