70 Days – Righteousness Exalts a Nation – Day 33

GiveHim15 will be collaborating with Love Ministries in a very special 70-day prayer focus. We are going to take a stand for righteousness in the United States of America  from February 9th through Passover, April 19th.

“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.” (Proverbs 14:34; NASB)

REBUILDING THE WALL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN OUR NATION, STATES, AND TERRITORIES – 52 Day State Prayer Focus: Day 15: Vermont, March 4, 1791

“Blessed are you, O Israel (America)! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord?

He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will cower before you, and you will trample down their high places.” (Deuteronomy 33:29; NIV)

We’re Going Up to the High Places

“We’ve been deceived by the devil too long. We’re gonna tear the devil’s kingdom down. What he said was his Has been ours all along. We’re gonna tear the devil’s kingdom down. We’re going up to the high places. We’re going up to the high places…We’ve got to be strong. We’ve got to be bold. We’re gonna tear the devil’s kingdom down. We’re gonna reclaim everything the devil stole. We’re gonna tear the devil’s kingdom down…We’re gonna pull down the altars. We’re gonna tear down the walls. We’re gonna raise up the banner of righteousness And declare that Jesus is Lord of all. We’re gonna tear the devil’s kingdom down…” (Ron Kenoly) Listen here.

“Blessed is the man you discipline, O Lord, the man you teach from your law; you grant him relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked. For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance. Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it. Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers? Unless the Lord had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the silence of death. When I said, ‘My foot is slipping, your love, O Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul. Can a corrupt throne be allied with you — one that brings on misery by its decrees? They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the Lord our God will destroy them.’” (Psalm 94:15-22; NIV)

“But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” (Ephesians 5:13-14; NIV)

Give Him 15 minutes of prayer:

  • Decree the above Scriptures and song over our nation and the state of Vermont.
  • Consider this: Vermont has demonstrated a lawlessness without limit—pushing abortion laws beyond even New York and Virginia. They voted in the house 106-36 to enact a law that would have zero limitations on abortion as to time, reason, fetal viability, or method.
  • Thank the Lord for legislators that are standing for righteousness.
  • Pray against an Absalom Spirit: those who sit in the gate to capture the hearts of the people.
  • 52 Day State Prayer Focus: Vermont, (French, “green mountain”).
  • Statehood: March 4, 1791.
  • Motto: Freedom and Unity.
  • Familiar Name: The Green Mountain State.
  • 50-State Tour: The Passover State and The Sleeping Beauty State.
  • Decree the Preamble of the State of Vermont: “Whereas, all government ought to be instituted and supported, for the security and protection of the community, as such, and to enable the individuals who compose it, to enjoy their natural rights, and the other blessings which the Author of existence has bestowed upon man; and whenever those great ends of government are not obtained, the people have a right, by common consent, to change it, and take such measures as to them may appear necessary to promote their safety and happiness.”

A prayer you can pray:

Father, many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is Your purpose that stands for our nation and for Vermont.  We declare, “Blessed are you, righteous remnant of America! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will cower before you, and you will trample down their high places.” I heard the Lord say, “I’m going up to the high places to tear the devil’s kingdom down.” Father, we decree it so. We say with you, “We’re going up to the high places in this nation and the state of Vermont to tear the devil’s kingdom down.”

Father, we acknowledge and confess as a nation and the state of Vermont, lawlessness and rebellion against You and Your Word. We acknowledge idolatry, broken covenants, immorality, and innocent bloodshed, ungodly laws and legislation that oppose You and Your Word. Lord, we cry out for mercy for the unborn…Can a corrupt throne be allied with you — one that brings on misery by its decrees? They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. Father we decree: “Blessed is the man you discipline, the man you teach from your law; you grant him relief from days of trouble, till a pit is dug for the wicked. For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance. Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it. Who will rise up for me against the wicked? Who will take a stand for me against evildoers? Can a corrupt throne be allied with you — one that brings on misery by its decrees? They band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death. But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the Lord our God will destroy them.” Let Your righteous rule and judgements be restored in this state and nation. We take authority over an Absalom spirit in our nation that would sit in the gate to capture the hearts of the people and turn them toward wickedness and unrighteousness. We ask you to forgive the unrighteous laws that have been voted on and established in our nation that band together against Your righteousness and condemn the innocent to death. Let deception be removed from the people and the mountain of government in our nation and this state.

We decree and declare the power of the Blood of Jesus Christ over this nation and state. Lord, Vermont is the Passover State. Lord, we ask you to annul this state’s agreement with death and the grave. We ask that the spirit of death be bound and broken. Let this state be bound to your life, Lord.  “…everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: “Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.” Vermont, let every corrupt throne and leader be overturned and removed from you in the name of Jesus Christ. Let every high place and unholy altar be removed. Lord, let every demonic portal be shut down and every unholy alliance severed in the land. Let the worshippers arise in the state of Vermont and release the sound of a new era upon the church and the land. Let Jesus Christ, the Author and Perfecter of your faith be enthroned upon your praises.  We decree Vermont, “Whereas, all government ought to be instituted and supported, for the security and protection of the community, as such, and to enable the individuals who compose it, to enjoy their natural rights, and the other blessings which the Author of existence has bestowed upon man; and whenever those great ends of government are not obtained, the people have a right, by common consent, to change it, and take such measures as to them may appear necessary to promote their safety and happiness.” Lord, you are the Author of existence, we ask that You establish new legislation and leadership in this state that will promote Your righteousness, safety and true freedom, especially for the unborn, newborn and the elderly in Jesus Name, Amen.

The 70 Day Decree:

Lord God, we present ourselves unto You a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1). We acknowledge and declare that we are filled with the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:11). Your Word tells us that righteousness exalts a nation (Proverbs 14:34). We stand before You in the land You have given us, and we decree and release the righteousness of Christ into our territories, spheres of influence, our cities, states, and nation in order to bring healing, revival, awakening, and reformation to America. Father, let Your Spirit of righteousness be released and established in us, and in every place in which You have given us jurisdiction. Let Your righteous Kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10)! Prepare the soil of this nation and realign us with Your righteousness! In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
