For a long time, I’ve been praying for spiritual revival in the US and around the world. Only Yeshua and biblical values can cure the problems that face this nation—and the whole world, for that matter. That’s why I was excited to read this article. Make of it what you will, but it’s some good news, and seems to be a step in the right direction, at least.
We’re all constantly being inundated and bombarded with a never-ending tidal wave of boisterous, shrill and fascistic leftist (so-called “progressive”) lies and propaganda coming at us from every direction high and low against the traditional Judeo-Christian, biblical values that bring life, liberty, blessing, prosperity, righteousness and moral and spiritual structure and order to society. In light of this leftist putch to overthrow and transform our society, my constant prayer has been that Elohim will take the proverbial lid off of the leftist garbage can to reveal to the common people really what’s inside.
Under this gilded leftist lid is a stinking and putrid mess that destroys everything good that it touches. Leftism brings tyranny, loss of personal freedom, fascistic government control the many be an elite few, religious persecution, poverty, and oft times torture and death. The nations of the world are full of examples of how leftism has brought ruination and destruction. (Think the French Revolution, Marxism, the Soviet Union, Red China, North Korea, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Cuba, many African nations, Venezuela, etc., etc. and to a lesser degree the so-called social democracies of western Europe).
I could wax eloquent on this point, but I’d likely be preaching to the choir—at least to those who know their history and understand the history of political economical experimentation, and who have a biblical worldview baseline against which to critically analyze everything.
Anyway, my prayer has been that enough people will see the true evils of leftism and being aghast at the sight of it will begin to return to traditional, Judeo-Christian values. I don’t know if this poll is a reflections of a trend in this direction or not—only time will tell, but it’s seems to be a small step in the right direction (double entendre intended). HalleluYah!
As I see it, there are only two directions: right (right) and left (wrong)! — Natan

LIBERALS OUTNUMBER CONSERVATIVES IN JUST 6 STATES
Gallup survey shows America leans right
Liberals outnumber conservatives in only six states, according to the latest Gallup survey.
That’s a drop of 30 percent from the previous survey, which found nine states where liberals have the edge, the Washington Examiner reported.
The six states are Massachusetts, Hawaii, Vermont, Washington, New York and New Hampshire.
Additionally, in California conservatives and liberals split 29 percent to 29 percent.
Nationwide, Gallup said, those who identify themselves conservative hold a nine-point lead.
Gallup noted, however, conservatives previously had a 21 point lead, and some state figures fall within the margin of error.
Gallup said that in 25 states, the conservative advantage is significantly greater than the national average.
And in 19 “highly conservative” states, conservatives outnumber liberals by at least 20 percentage points.

This has been my prayer as well. We need the righteous to stand UP and fight for what’s right and we need eyes to open and for people to turn to Father in confession, repentance and obedience so that He can bless this nation and her people.
We need a Biblical backbone of Steel, the ability to Roar truth fearlessly like the Lion(of the tribe of Judah), to be Discerning, Wise, Holy, Pure, and yet full of God’s Love

“History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.” Martin Luther KIng Jr.
I too pray for a Spiritual Revival of this nation, and for world to see the true light! But sadly It’s only the few who remain in the light… Looking back to 9/11 how many were in the churches after the fall and how far the nation had turned to the left since then… Its heart breaking… But my hope is in YHVH! And I’ll keep on praying. Amen!
Revelation 22:11 says: Whoever keeps acting wickedly, let him go on acting wickedly;
whoever is filthy, let him go on being made filthy.
I wonder whether this verse is meant for our present time or further into the future.
After all, the Gospel is available everywhere or almost (definitely in the U.S.A.).
This Scripture verse seems to indicate, that there is a point in time when the lost are irretrievable? Sometimes, I am not sure what the Lord wants us to pray for. I often pray for Yeshua to come back soon and sort out the mess.
So many people have become so very bad that I can’t help thinking about what God said to Yirmeyahu in chapter 7:16: So you (Yirmeyahu), don’t pray for this people! Don’t cry, pray or intercede on their behalf with me; because I won’t listen to you.

I find myself asking the same questions and in the same quandary and predicament. It seems that my prayers for our leaders, the nation, the church, and many people I know including even some family members seem to be a total waste of time and are producing no fruits after decades of praying. This can be discouraging and confusing at times.
Bottom line: YHVH’s plans will be fulfilled, and no matter how hard we pray, one way or another, they’re going to come to pass. In the end times before the second coming, things on earth are going to be really dark spiritually; no amount of prayer is going to change that. Elohim’s judgments upon the wicked are coming, if they’re not occurring already; no amount of prayer is going to preempt this. The Scriptures predict that the saints will be persecuted in the end times; nothing will change this, because Elohim’s word will come to pass. Some people are going to be thrown into the lake of fire including some loved ones because their hearts are dark and they refuse to change; no amount of prayer can contravene the human free will. How many times are we actually praying against YHVH’s word? Perhaps for these reasons, we’re not to pray for certain things any more? Just wondering.
I have many questions, but not a lot of answers when it comes to many things.
This I know for sure: Elohim is on the throne, Yeshua is at his right hand, his word is true, he is good and I’m saved through faith in Messiah, and I’m walking out his word the best I know. The rest will take care of itself.
Amen, Sonja
