Lord my faith in men as governments is totally devastated. All of the self centered greed for money and power has developed a culture of lies and deceit across the world. We see how pushing You God further and further away from our centered values from Judeau Christian heritage based on your word and protecting our religious freedom has created this instability and climate of hatred and violence is the natural outflow. God I pray we might have a great outpouring of your Spirit and that you might unveil truth where our only hope of freedom is in You first and then in our society as a natural overflow. I pray for Turkey, the original homeland of my husband where family still live and ask you will release them from the dictatorship presently suppressing all freedom of thought and religion. I pray for Christians there and the spread of the gospel to many who might be reached and yes Lord, we know dispite all of the evil powers of this world YOUR will will be done and kingdoms will come and go according to Your perfect will. Give us grace, give us wisdom, give us opportunity wherever we are to speak your word of promise and salvation with the only hope of this world, the only eternal and everlasting truth of the gospel. Father do not let greed change our vocabulary . Sin is what it is. Paid for murderers are not our “allies”. Lying is not “whistleblowing”. We are a stench to You when we walk away from our known walking in your ways. I confess my own sins first Lord–reveal them to me with your mercy Lord and then I ask for my nation and the world. Father give us your tearful eyes as you lovingly looked over Jerusalem and your forgiveness from the cross in Your prayer to Your Father, “Fogive them for they know not what they do”. Let us become a sea of seekers whose love will lead the way for an unstoppable wave of renewal starting in our churches and overflowing the beaches of a lost world. Thank You Lord for opening my eyes through this presidency of all the evil corruption in our nation and the world. Thank You for a President fighting for religious freedom and sanctity of life. Protect him and his family. He is not any more perfect nor are we, but we see how You use imperfect people to accomplish Your will. Protect us with your power, we are helpless on our own. Jesus we know you are at work in the world and perhaps in the last days, not due to climate change of weather, or something we can fix. Only your sacrifical death changed and is still changing what we cannot but by receiving your gift by faith. Jesus thank You for saving me. Thank You for signs I see in loved ones that are coming closer to the cross. Thank You Lord for Your covenantal love that endures. In His precious name, Amen

First, I pray that Your will will be done, that You will be glorified in all this action, that the people of God, Christians, will be protected in all this action, that God will use this for the salvation of many, Kurds, other Muslims, even send revival in Turkey so that it will once again glorify God.

Lord, we don’t know what all went in to the President’s decision. There are many geopolitical and economic moving parts and possibilities, but more so, spiritual principalities and powers involved. Only You, Lord, know the right path, and how to navigate it, for the Trump Administration. Lord, it is obvious that You have raised up this man to be President. He has been outstanding on most issues. Thank You, Lord. He may have reasons for withdrawing our small troop presence from northern Syria that we are not aware of. We know it is a campaign promise to end United States participation from ongoing Middle East wars. Guide the President on how to proceed in this complicated matter which involves Russia, Syria, Turkey, the Kurds within various nations, and Israel. Lord, if this can work to break apart the recent Iranian, Turkish unity, may it be. Lord, save a multitude of Muslims in these countries.

There is no peace between evil and good. GOOD HAS TO WIN OVER EVIL.
The attack on the Kurdish people is EVIL.
Whatever GOOD America can do, needs to be done NOW!
Turkey is a wicked BULLY. The Kurds were our friends.

What GOOD friend stands by and does nothing to prevent their friend being murdered?

Almighty GOD, I pray in JESUS NAME for sanity and common sense to reign and to go to the aid of the weakened Kurdish people and save them from the bully. Do it now please, LORD, do it now. Amen.

    There are Christian Kurds, though to call them as a whole “our friends” would be misleading. Many slaughtered innocent babies and pregnant women and were paid to get rid of terrorists for U.S. money, not because they were our friends or allies. There are many Syrians who are Christians and Turkish Christians too. All of them are in need of our prayers and many Turkish people pray for release of their present leader. Remember that many of the Turkish people wish to return to the nation they were before he took over. There is much evil in this world and we need to remember we only hear the story the way people in power want to tell it and we are not always confident of the truth as we have discovered in these years in our country as we have discovered the corruption and lies that have taken residence in our own government. As praying Christians we have much to pray about and humbly seek the Lord for His Spirit to reveal truth and His justice for His people and a shaking of the world systems who have built kingdoms for themselves. Thank you for your prayers and stand again evil but I felt I had to caution you as I have felt convicted myself to be aware of things that are not what we might think and to remember to lean not unto our own understanding–He is our only truth. Enjoy your Hope in Him today. We continue in prayer for protection and wisdom and with thanksgiving we have an intercessor in Jesus.

      Thank you for sharing your views. As one who survived the atrocities of World War II that took the life of my young father and soon afterwards the loss of my mother, as well as others who ended up in concentration camps, I am particularly sensitive to the horrors of war. Seeing a little girl on television fighting for her life after losing her leg through the atrocious attack on innocent people by the Turks is what fueled my prayers. Too, the American soldiers who fought alongside the Kurds to defeat ISIS are now watching the killing of Kurdish men whom they knew as comrades. There was a better way to handle this situation–and much more prayer is needed for the President and for those who command the military. “A wise man sees trouble coming and avoids it.”

Father God,
Thank you for people such as these coming to gather to pray for our nation, its leaders,fellow Christian brothers and sisters and for other nations and their leaders and fellow brothers and sisters in Christ.
I pray against the powers and principalities of the air that are trying to destroy what you have created and the ideals and principals laid out in your Holy Scriptures.
Give our leaders divine inspiration and enlightenment through Your Holy Spirit to see truth about all things and that the pure unadulterated truth will be exposed!
I pray that the power of God will be witnessed in an undeniable way.
AMEN AND AMEN

Kingdom Revenge Demand: 1,000 new disciples of Isa al-Mashih (Jesus the Messiah) in Turkey for every person killed by Turkish troops in S.A.N.E.S (North East Syria). Eph 6:12, 18.
(This came to me as a Word of Wisdom while asking the Holy Spirit how to pray for our current and future brothers and sisters in Christ in SANES. I had also been asking how to pray for a people movement to Jesus in Turkey, where less than 0.03% of the population of 80 million are believers in Jesus.)
