Intercessors for America #fundie #homophobia #transphobia #wingnut ifapray.org

At least 17 openly LGBT candidates won seats in Congress in Tuesday’s midterm elections, according to a tally by the LGBT news outlet PinkNews, a net gain of at least three over the current Congress. Three LGBT members are departing and at least six are arriving. The Congressional Equality Caucus, which presses for LGBT policy priorities, celebrated the results publicly.

Democrats account for every new member in that count. Chris Pappas won New Hampshire’s open Senate seat, defeating former Republican Sen. John Sununu, and becomes the first openly gay man elected to the Senate. Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.), the first openly lesbian senator, was not up for reelection this year.

Ephesians 6:12 reminds us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers. Christians should be clear about what Scripture teaches on marriage and the body. A Congress that makes history this way is a mirror held up to a country that has been drifting from its foundations for decades. The church’s assignment is therefore not contempt but intercession and courage: speak the truth plainly, love the person in front of you, and pray for those now entrusted with power. Let’s pray that these LGBTQ government officials will be convicted of their sins and serve Christ. We pray for churches to continue to stand for Christ and the Bible, and for leaders in Congress to serve with wisdom, holiness, and courage.

How you can pray for this issue:
Lord, we pray against this rainbow wave, that You will cast down the demonic forces behind it, and bring these people to repentance. Give our government leaders common sense, wisdom, and courage to serve You with all holiness and godliness. Amen.

On this week’s Pray with America’s Leaders, IFA Chief Program Officer Kris Kubal warned intercessors about what she described as a coordinated plan to provoke a national crisis in the weeks after the Nov. 3 midterm elections. The plan is laid out in IFA’s new special report, “The Red Line.”

According to Kubal, the report draws on thousands of transcripts and hundreds of recordings recently released on X by researcher Jennica Pounds, known online as DataRepublican, along with others who have been digging through online archives and recording meetings. Kubal said the material comes from inside a network of former USAID officials, retired national security leaders, and protest organizers.

“What they describe is not a protest movement,” Kubal said. “It is a plan to provoke a federal crisis after the midterms.”
As Kubal summarized the recordings, the strategy is to escalate clashes after the election and treat any use of the Insurrection Act as a trigger. If President Donald Trump invokes the act to restore order, or if governors refuse federal help, organizers would declare the federal government illegitimate and press to rewrite the Constitution.

Ojutiku, who said she came from a nation that endured frequent military coups, called the strategy “an old playbook that the enemy has been using for centuries.” She pointed to the current unrest in Europe as evidence of how it works. She said the church has been weakened in places, including by liberation theology.

Let’s pray that every plan to provoke chaos and overturn our constitutional order would be exposed and brought to nothing. Let’s pray for President Trump, governors, and law enforcement leaders that God would give them wisdom to keep the peace lawfully in the weeks ahead. Let’s pray that those involved in these schemes would repent, and that Americans would reject anyone who seeks to tear down the system of government God led our founders to establish.
