ARISE AND PROPHESY OVER THE NATION

JEREMIAH 1:5&10, MATTHEW 16:19b

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee…and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. * See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant *…and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Just as Jesus spoke to a fig tree and it dried up from its roots (Mark 11:12-14, 20) and He spoke to a storm and it became calm (Mark 4:35-39), in His authority, you and I can speak to all forms of evil and corruption in every sector of the nation and they will dry up from their roots. When Jesus was about to raise Lazarus from the dead, He prayed to God and gave thanks, but He also spoke and commanded Lazarus to come forth! (John 11:41-44). As we pray and give thanks for our nation, God also wants us to arise and speak boldly to our nation declaring His mind and will into it. As we do this, situations are going to change and respond to us just as they would to Christ.

When the earth was without form and void, God did not complain about the situation, He spoke His will and it came into being. Like God told Jeremiah, God wants us to root out, pull down and destroy things that need to be removed, as well as to plant and build things that need to be in place, (Jer.1:10). Speak peace, progress and prosperity into every sector of the nation. Declare that godly values, principles and the Gospel will prevail in this nation. Elijah prophesied great abundance in the land and the next day, God brought about that abundance through the hands of four lepers, (2Kings 7).

ACTION POINT:
Begin to speak an end to every form of evil and corruption in this nation. Release peace, blessings and good things into the nation.
