“Restructuring” America Through Prayer

 
 
 

Today, I want to talk about the fascinating subject of “light.”

 
 

Science is just scratching the surface of their understanding of light. Reading articles about it can leave one running for headache medicine and needing a day or two off. An article about light in National Geographic stated that “Einstein’s relativity presents all manner of head-scratching implications. It reveals that as objects approach the speed of light, time slows down. At the speed of light itself, time stops.”(1)

 
 

Like I said…

 
 

Light is now used to heal, transport sound, heat, destroy (as in weapons), provide energy, and more. The same article said, “Light could even become the preeminent power source for long-distance space travel. The spaceship would have an ultrathin sail to catch the ‘wind’ of light beamed from an Earth-based laser. In theory, such a craft could accelerate to a sizable fraction of the speed of light—without carrying fuel.”(2)

 
 

LIGHT AND INTERCESSION

 

God’s Word has a lot to say about light, including as a weapon. A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about light/lightning and intercession. In it, I mentioned a dream given to Steven Springer, in which lightning struck the top of the White House. This strike began a season of cleansing, followed by revival, in our nation. 

 
 

The book of Job tells us that God “fills His hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark” (Job 36:32 NIV). “Strike its mark” is the Hebrew word paga, which amazingly is also the word for intercession.(3) Yes, one of the meanings of prayer is to release God’s power, light, and glory to “strike” spiritual targets, releasing God’s judgment.

 
 

In my book Intercessory Prayer, I state, “Have you ever seen a tree struck by lightning? If so, you’ve seen a picture of intercession. I pray a lot in a stand of woods nearby. At times, I come across trees struck by lightning. The lightning is so hot that it literally changes the molecular structure of the trees and twists the trunks until they look like the stripes on a candy cane. The temperature in a lightning bolt can reach 30,000 degrees Celsius (45,000 degrees Fahrenheit), hotter than the sun’s surface. That’s hot stuff! And God uses this to picture His judgments!”(4)

 
 

In the book, I write an entire chapter on the subject of God’s light and glory being released through intercession (paga). 

 
 

Recently, Holy Spirit has once again directed my thoughts to lightning-struck trees and their changed molecular structure. “That’s what the prayers of the Ekklesia are doing,” He said, “changing the ‘structure’ of America.” This gave new meaning to the time-honored phrase: prayer changes things. Our prayers release the authority of our King, Jesus, to change the structure, shape, and condition of our government, education, culture, etc. 

 
 

It is little wonder that in Steven's dream, the lightning from God resulted in the exposure of evil - masks came off of people, and “all sorts of evil were revealed and removed across the nation.” Then came revival. 

 
 

God created all that exists, including light, using only His words (Genesis 1:3; John 1:1-5; Hebrews 11:3). Ginomai is the New Testament word used to describe this creating of all things. The word essentially means, “cause to be or become.”(5) This word is also used in Christ’s teaching on how to pray in Matthew 6:10. In the phrase, “Thy will be done,” the two words “be done” are translated from this one Greek word, ginomai. The tense of the verb (aorist imperative) indicates a command. Simply stated, Christ said we are to command or declare for God causing His will to be, to become, to be created.

 
 

Through your prayers, release God’s light over America every day! Command the unveiling, unmasking of darkness. Release His light over the deceitful plans, the hidden agendas, and the lies of corrupt people. Release it over the elections and candidates. Declare exposure. And release God’s light over the minds of unbelievers, freeing them to “see” the gospel. CAUSE these things TO BE!

 
 

Friends, we must continue to strike with intercession!!!

 
 
 

Pray with me:

 

Father God, Creator of light, we are in awe of who You are. Just as light always overcomes darkness, You, Holy Spirit, and Your Son - the Light of the World, always win over darkness. We are Your offspring, children of light (Ephesians 5:8; 1 Thessalonians 5:5). We walk in the light, and through our prayers, we release Your light. Paul said He was called “to open [the Gentiles] eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the power of satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in [Christ]” (Acts 26:18 NASB). We do this through declaring the gospel and through our prayers. 

 

Today, we cause Your will to be done - we command the exposure of corruption in our nation’s government. We command the exposing of hidden plans, people, and systems being used to control our nation. We command the exposure of hidden agendas and motives, including in this current election cycle. We ask for Your lightning, Father, to be released to restructure our nation. Let light flash forth from Your presence and consume the darkness! 

 

We ask for Your light to also burn up the veil of deception that keeps people blinded to truth and the gospel. Shine forth into their hearts just as You did ours (2 Corinthians 4:6). Transform enemies into Your friends, children of darkness into Your family. With bold faith we ask for this over entire nations in our day. You said when Zion travails, nations can be born in a day! (Isaiah 66:7-8) 

 

Send lightning strikes to entire nations! Psalm 18:14 says You send Your arrows of lightning and destroy Your enemies. Do so - destroy strongholds that blind entire nations, and reveal Christ to them. 

 

We pray these things in the name and authority of the Savior, Christ Jesus. Amen. 

 
 

Our decree:

 

We decree that the mask-melting and veil-removing lightning of God is being released in America and throughout the world.
