Scriptures to Pray for the Pulling Down of Strongholds and Revival

We are in the War of Ideas. I pray for the welfare of the nation, the states and cities where our feet hit the ground, and our families for daily Godly wisdom, guidance, and protection for our leaders and members to meet the challenges and opportunities ahead. I pray–For the peace of Jerusalem and may all those who love you be secure and prosper Psalms 122.6 NIV & KJV.

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4 KJV). No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD Isaiah 54:17 KJV.

I did not harm them, but they hid a net to catch me and dug a pit to trap me. Let destruction take them by surprise!Let the net they hid catch them! Let them fall into destruction!Psalms 35:7-8 net Paul quoted David –May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them. May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see Romans 11:9-10 NIV.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor,Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end Isaiah 9:6-7 NIV.

The pulling down of strongholds, cleaning house, putting things in order is not enough or the final condition will be worse! When an evilspirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation" Matthew 12:43-45 NIV.

The clean house must be filled and occupied; filled with the Holy Spirit and the Word of God! Revive us O Lord with your Word! Pray for revival in accordance with God’s word: Fight for me and defend me! Revive me with your word (Psalms 119.156 NET)! Will you not revive us once more? Then your people will rejoice in you! Psalms 85.6 net. O Lord God, invincible warrior, restore us! Smile on us! Then we will be delivered Psalms 80.19 NET!

Revival requires: Repentance and Seeking God First. This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: "In repentance and rest is your salvation; in quietness and trust is your strength” (Isaiah 30.15 NIV). God’s children must seek him first, making him our top priority. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added unto you Matthew 6.33 KJV.

Then the whole batch can rise. A little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise (Galatians 5.9 NET)! Will we do it? If not the final condition will be worse. Paul encourages us to: But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus Philippians 3:13-14 NIV.
