PRAYER AGAINST CORRUPTION IN OUR NATION

Abba Father,

I come before You to petition the court of heaven for immediate intervention on behalf of Your people in Nigeria. Father, by the blood of Your precious Son, these people have been purchased. They belong to Jesus Christ, not to the government of Nigeria.

They do not belong to the politicians or corrupt politicians & lawmakers. Others did not shed their blood or bear the weight of our sin as Jesus Christ has; therefore they have no legitimate claim to our lives. They seek to make us their slaves.

These modern day “Egyptians” and “Pharaohs” arrogantly believe they have the right and the power to injure Your children. But, they did not give us our life or our rights; You did. They do not have the right to strip Your people of the right to life and liberty that You gave us.

Therefore, by the blood of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, I humbly yet boldly come to you now in the time of our need.

Please, O God, do not resist our petition. We know, as a nation of people, that we have failed to honor You. We have rebelled.

As a nation of people, we are guilty of shedding innocent blood through the abortion industry and the demand to legalize the murder of babies at whim. We have turned to idols and rejected Your law in so many ways, yet I plead for mercy. We truly do not deserve it, but I know how merciful & gracious You are. You have said in Your word that You do not wish that any person would perish, but all would come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Please forgive us and help us. Send Your angels on assignment to overturn unjust laws and help us save our nation.

Father, please send out Your command to the earth and allow Your word to run very swiftly.

I ask You to establish Your word, for it is written in Psalm 149: 7-9 that You have given Your people the power to execute vengeance on nations & punishment on peoples; to bind their kings with fetters of iron and execute the written judgment of Your word.

Therefore, I declare:

I bind the spirits of murder, lust, covetousness, idolatry, witchcraft, slander, greed, corruption & selfish ambition in the name and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ. I loose justice, equity, & righteousness in Jesus name. I release the Fear of the Lord.

I declare the slain shall fall in the enemy’s camp & Your people are spared in the day of calamity, O God. Your people, Israel, are not forsaken, nor Judah (those who praise You).

By our God, the Lord of Hosts, though our land has been filled with sin against the Holy One of Israel, let Your people be preserved according to Jeremiah 51:4,5.

I declare this is the time of the Lord’s recompense towards His people, for the judgment of those who conspire to harm innocent life has reached to heaven. Let the arrows be released into the enemy’s camp! Let the evil kingdoms be broken & destroyed according to Jeremiah 51:20-21.

Let Your hand be stretched out against the destroying mountains according to Jeremiah 51:25.

I declare the LORD is a great God & a great King above all gods. (Psalm 95:3)

For You are the LORD Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods. (Psalm 97:9)

I declare You Oh God have performed Mighty deeds with Your arm; You have scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts. (Luke 1:51)

I declare that you frustrate the devices of the crafty so that their hands cannot carry out their plans. You catch the wise in their own craftiness & the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them according to Job 5:12,13.

I declare the King of heaven should be honored for all Your works are true & Your ways just, & You are able to humble those who walk in pride according to Daniel 4:37.

Blessed be the LORD who delivered us from the hand of the Egyptians & from the hands of evil political pharaohs, & who delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians. Now I know that the LORD is greater than all gods: for in the thing wherein they dealt proudly He was above them. Exodus 18:11

Father, there are corrupt politicians, corrupt lawmakers, corrupt judges, corrupt business people that have conspired against Your people.

They have conspired for the sake of evil gain, & have plotted against the lives of the innocent.

They seek to destroy our children. Your CHILDREN, LORD. Let the curse enter the house of the thief that consumes their entire house, as it is written in Zechariah 5:3-4.

I specifically address those responsible for overturning & silencing the voice of the Nigerian people & others that are at the forefront of political corruption.

You know everyone & everything that has been done in secret, Lord. Bring their evil deeds out of hiding so that true motives can be evaluated by all. Those that have conspired to do injustice & oppression.

These people have committed crimes against humanity for selfish gain, & I ask that You cut off their ability to continue in evil.

I ask You to consider their actions against Your people & deal with them as You see fit. Not as I will, but as You will, O God.

Let ungodly stewards be deposed from their offices and let another more righteous person take their place. Let their authority be stripped from them according to Isaiah 22:20-22.& Plsm109:1-20

Let those businesses who make their gain through immoral means and get rich at the expense of the well-being of others wither and dry up immediately.

As You cursed the fig tree & it supernaturally dried up overnight, let the same be done to corrupt politicians oil cabals & oil bunkers and business people who conspire to profit by violence against innocent citizens of this nation Nigeria

Father, these people have rejoiced at destroying Your heritage. They have silenced people that have understood the amount of corruption & took a stand against it.

They have silenced whistle blowers & destroyed their families.

They have willfully destroyed others & rejoiced in it. They conspire to rob Your people of security, health & life.

Let the weapons of your armory be opened. Bring out the weapons of Your indignation according to Jeremiah 50:25. Let Your arrows be released to carry out the judgment against those bearing the oppressing sword. Those oppressing Your people have refused to let them go. I ask You for judgment with mercy against those that refuse to let Your people be free in Nigeria

Father, expose the wrongdoing, the corruption, & the harm that politicians are perpetuating against the citizens of this country Nigeria

Give us judges that aren’t bought off with a bribe. Your promise in Isaiah 1:26 is that You would give us good judges & wise counselors again. Please give us our liberty back, in Jesus name!

Show Your power, O Lord. You are the Lord of Hosts! Let our Redeemer thoroughly plead our case! Give us rest from evil taskmasters & against evil princes that oppress Your people.

I declare a sword of justice is against the mighty that seek to perpetuate evil plans & conspire against our nation.

I declare a sword is against their treasures and they will be robbed, according to Jeremiah 50:37.

I declare that according to Psalm 89:23 that You have crushed Your foes & you have stricken down our enemies.

Also according to Psalm 18:40, you have given us the necks of our enemies and their heads (authority) have been removed from them in Jesus name.

Let the power of the wicked be broken, according to Psalm 37:17.

Father, it is written in Isaiah 49:25 where You affirmed that “captives would be taken from warriors & plunder retrieved from the fierce; You said that You would contend with those that contend with us, & our children You would save.”

I declare these evil powers' ability to multiply, take dominion & subdue others is cut off, for their master has already been defeated. It is written in John 16:11 that the ruler of this world has been judged, and in John 12:31 it is written that the ruler of this world shall be cast out. According to Your word, let him be cast out of these systems now in Jesus name.

Let those that have been caught in the enemy’s snare escape and turn to You, O God. Convict their conscience. Let them repent and be saved in Jesus name.

We declare that You will ruin the enemy's plans and remove the crown from those unworthy to govern. You will give the right to rule to the people who will rule in righteousness, & those You have chosen, according to Your promise in Ezekiel 21:27 & Jeremiah 23:6.

We declare ungodly thrones are overturned and the power of foreign kingdoms are shattered. You have overthrown the driving forces & those that are in league with evil forces according to Haggai 2:2.

Father, Your word in Jeremiah 30:10 tells us that You will save us & our seed from captivity.

Your word also in Isaiah 49:25 declares that You will take the captives of the mighty away from them & You will contend with those that contend with us. You promised to save our children. I thank You for Your promise. I thank You that You are a God of justice.

I thank You, Father, that the idols of evil thrones are broken. I thank you that the bows of the mighty men and corrupt politicians are broken according to Jeremiah 51:56.

I thank You that evil shield bearers that protect the ungodly from judgment and thwart justice for the oppressed are taken down and removed.

I thank You that You have pleaded our case and taken vengeance for Your people according to Jeremiah 51:36.

Your kingdom come, Lord Jesus, Your will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. In Jesus name. Amen.
