Prayer
Father in obedience to your commands we pray with thanksgiving for your son president Barack Obama in accordance with 1 Timothy 2:1 that it may be well with us. We continue to pray the blessings of Isaiah 11 and 55 on him. Father, be his strength and wisdom and understanding in these difficult days.
We are confident that it is not your will for any to perish but to come to the saving knowledge of you in Christ Jesus therefore we are bold to ask for your grace and mercy upon those who claim to know you.
Father many claim to be yours but their conversation is of darkness and the evil one. Protect us from the deception that is all around.
Father reveal the real Church that many on the wrong path may realize their folly and repent.
Father, deliver us from those who claim that Christianity and your mercy and grace is dependent on party affiliation and consequently claim you are responsible for their evil deeds. They seem confused and think you approve of evil.
Therefore we ask that this year be the year of truth when those who claim that you approve of evil are put to shame as you reveal yourself as approver of truth and light only for you will never take from the poor and give to the rich.
Do not allow the Church to be used as a sales house for the souls of men. Expose pastors who sell their congregations to corporate America and the rich for monetary donations.
Expose those who sell their congregations to occult groups.
We continue to lift up the nation of Nigeria before you and to pray for national deliverance from the pacts the leaders have made with global occult groups in a blind bid to join the so called global economic community.
Jacob has been deceived into selling himself for nought. The door has been opened wide to false doctrine purporting to empower people to get wealth and many are trying to be Gentiles which is an impossible task for Jacob is God’s inheritance.
Give your people contentment and deliver the people from the desire to be like others for Jacob is supposed to be different and not like others. He is the light. How can he seek darkness?
Turn your people back unto you. Recue your people from the bars that have been used to hold them bound. We decree that all bars be broken right now in Jesus name and Jacob set free to serve his God.
In addition, we continue to ask for deliverance for the nation from Boko Haran and all other Islamic extremist groups being used to destabilize the nation.
Father, make this year the year of blessing and deliverance for the nation of Nigeria that it may be well with the earth and put to shame the nations trying to keep it in bondage.
Indeed, once again choose Jacob that it may be well with the earth we pray for the oppression of Jacob is the problem of the earth today. Until Jacob is restored, the earth will reel.
How can Jacob who you call your first born in the Scriptures be so treaded down, deceived and deluded into selling himself for nought? Have mercy upon Jacob oh God of Jacob.
As the seed of Jacob has been deceived so has the seed of Japheth . For Japheth is deceived by his own heart into thinking that deceiving Jacob into idolatry will prevent the will of God for Jacob.
Give Japheth the grace and humility to accept your plan, which is grace. For without it he has no hope and is alienated from you and from the commonwealth of Israel
Help Japheth to see that his deceiving Jacob has only brought him sorrow and no solution and consequently repent that he may attain to the grace available in Christ Jesus that he seeks
The Scripture shows us that income inequality is a recipe for the downfall of a nation. Deliver us from the wealthy corporations and individuals bent on making the poor continue to subsidize the rich.
We continue to ask for a productive congress this year that works with the president to achieve your will for us.
Shield our loved ones and us from all the problems in this year. Let us receive only blessings, grace, mercy, love and life and life more abundantly.
Break the chains that hold people bound in darkness we pray.
Continue to help the Wall Street occupiers and their comrades all over the earth and give them wisdom.
Open their eyes to the fact that you are the God who releases the oppressed from bondage and turn their eyes to you that they may have good success
We continue to lift up the European debt crisis unto you for only you can provide a lasting solution.
Help us the people to patiently cooperate with the president you have given us to stop the oppression of the poor by the wealthiest as we currently have in the land.
We continue to lift up the American jobs bill and ask for it to be represented and finally fully approved that the downtrodden may get help by your grace
For the sake of the global economy, restore the kingdom to your people who currently have no hope being trodden under and scattered into the nations called Africa and the islands of the seas many not knowing who they really are or their purpose as a people on the earth..
Their restoration in accordance with Scripture is the only way to bring well being back globally. The kingdom must be restored to Jacob who alone can fulfil it. Once again choose Jacob we pray.
Help them to realize they are beneath and not above because they are following European idolatry instead of being the light. They have sold themselves to the European cause for nought.
We ask for continued divine protection for all our loved ones and us. Guide theirs and ours going out and coming in as they and we travel locally and internationally.
Also protect theirs and ours dwelling places in Jesus name. Be the shield and buckler and wall of defence around them and us at all times.
Give our loved ones and us victory over all adversity and manifest all the blessing of Psalms 91 in theirs and all our lives we pray.
We also ask for divine healing, restoration and soundness of mind for all our loved ones and in Jesus name. Amen.
We soak all our loved ones and ourselves in the blood of Jesus
In Jesus name we command permanent healing and deliverance in all our loved ones and us.
Let the blood of Jesus work out miracles of permanent and perfect healing in all our loved ones and us.
Through these prayers bring renewal, healing, strength and salvation to every soul and their loved ones

We also beseech you to cast down all the challenges in court that men may know your righteousness.
Help the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob especially in Africa beyond the rivers of Ethiopia to understand the scriptures,. Protect our loved ones in the land especially in Nigeria.
We also ask for peace in the Korean peninsula and Afghanistan. Protect our troops in harm’s way.
We pray for immigration laws that stand for us as obedience to your command of love that we may receive mercy from you as a nation.
Father we continue to thank you for the president you have given us and pray for him.
We ask for your continued protection over the Obama family. Continue to be their security detail and return all arrows back to the senders. Help the Obama to continue to be good examples before us. We plead the blessings of Psalms 91 on them.
We continue to claim the heritage of your servants in Isaiah 54 verses 15-17 for our president and his family. Be an enemy to all the enemies of your purpose in his life, and an adversary to all the adversaries of your purpose in his life for it is your will, your plan and your anointing that they challenge therefore show yourself mighty that we may be delivered as a nation from all that plagues us.
Father prepare a table of supernatural success and blessing before him in the presence of all those trying to make him and consequently the nation and your purpose to fail and put them to shame because his success is our success. Give him the kind of supernatural success that shuts up the mouth of the enemy and that glorifies your name. Take all the glory and let it be seen that you are the one at work and that you honour the anointing you place on the sons of men with success that others in public service may choose to serve as your servant too.

Call in and invite your friends to call in too. Continue to meditate on the following passage from 2 Corinthians 10:3-6. It will be the word the Lord has given to us for these calls.
"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled."
Remember, the condition for revenging all disobedience is our own obedience
In Christ,

Evangelist – Church of the Resurrection Bloomfield
Remember it is written -
Acts 16:31 - Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved and Romans 10:9-11 says - if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture says, Who ever believes on him shall not be ashamed.
