Prayer for Ukraine and Russia

Dear God, you are Lord!
All things are in your hands and you are sovereign and mighty.
I know no king has sat on a throne without your knowing and you bring down those who are proud and evil, those who oppress the poor and widows.

You are the one that protects the orphans and widows and the strangers in the land. You were the one that gave the laws for justice and you are the vindicator of evil and you will bring judgement to those who are bent on evil.

Your kingdom come and Your will be done God! Om earth as it is I’m Heaven!

God there is nothing you are not seeing right now in Ukraine and Russia. You see the hearts of men and the evil that is being done right now. I don’t believe we have to tell you how to be God and think of solutions to pray into for you to carry out because you are God. You have the best plans and better plans and ways beyond our understanding and knowledge!

God as my heart breaks for these people and those running or fighting for their lives right now, I pray that many will call out to you and encounter your living help and hope! That you will lead them by your spirit into safe places or into strong battled and victories!

God those who have you on their side always win the wars and you are able to defeat the enemies even when they outnumber your people! You’ve done it over and over and over again for Israel.

I’ve read about how you strucked the enemies with blindness, how they turned around to fight each other, how the angels went into the enemy camps and stuck them down, how you parted the seas for the refugees to pass through. You are God and you can do it again and again if you want to and if the spirit leads men to walk in that path you have made.

God we worship you and I pray that during this time Lord, there will be a cry of repentance towards you as we know the days are always near to where Jesus you will come again.

Jesus you said that there will be wars and rumours of wars, there will many people dying in the last days in revelations. That there will be sifting through the wheat and yet the Father has been holding off the time you came again because you don’t want to destroy the good and the bad together but will separate them in the day you come back.

God I pray that nations turn to you right now and repent from their sins and call upon the name of Jesus to recieve that forgiveness. Many will die in wars and these days but what Is worse is that they die in their sin and face eternal judgement. I pray God that they know you and have eternal life – then this place is not their home.

God I pray for discernment to true and false news, to channelling our hearts and funds towards those who are truly being the hands and feet of Jesus In the areas and places that you’ve called them to. I pray that you equip the saints with your holy spirit in this time, that they will be full of your spirit, overflowing in ways that they could give more than they have because it all comes from you.

God I pray for the children that are terrified right now. The most vulnerable and innocent. The babies in their mother’s arms – that your angels surround them and protect their hearts and minds from the violence that they see and hear and experience. I pray that they be protected and will not grow up in resentment or bitterness and trauma.

God I pray for the mothers Lord give them strong hearts that they will be able to fight and be strongly unafraid to stand up to the enemies and protect their babies and still take care of the daily household needs. Be their peace and comfort and strength God!

God I pray for the fathers that are fighting to protect their family – that you lead them to make wise decisions for their households. I pray that they cry out to you in their desperation and that they will see your hand in their deliverance from this time.

God I pray for the soldiers that are trembling in fear and yet having not a choice to pull a trigger right now – knowing this day might be their last, that you will whisper your truth into their hearts and give them dreams and visions and reveal yourself to them in their last days. Have Mercy on them God on these lives of men, young and old. God you are always good and you have mercy on those you will have mercy on. But as Moses cried out to you and asked that you spare the Israelites, so we cry out for you to raise your hand in mercy for these lives in Ukraine and Russia, and all over the world that another World War will not happen. There will be rumours of wars but we pray for your interruption to unnecessary bloodshed Lord.

God I pray for those who are travelling to find refuge, that you would provide for them daily – that their shoes will not wear out and their clothing will keep them warm. That they will have food to eat and water to drink daily. That you will move the hearts of the necessary organisations to provide help and move by your spirit with wisdom, those around the world who are looking in and watching- and direct them to the right and trusted organisations and churches that are doing your work on the grounds there right now.

God I pray for the leaders of the nations. We know that you see the hearts of men and only you know their intentions for war or defence. Those who do evil in your sight have always not reigned long because you are a God of Justice! I pray Lord that you see the hearts of the leaders right now and do what you’ve always done – remove the ones who plot evil for gain and power and raise leaders who will bring justice to the nation and whose hearts are for the people Lord. You are the one who searches hearts and you are the Lord of compassion. How could we be more compassionate than you? How could we love more than you? You are the only one that is good and we recall that love and mercy that is who you are.

I pray that in these times the churches all over the world will come back to their first love and do whatever they did in the beginning when they first encountered you Lord! It’s not by our human effort or human plans that we can do anything for you but it is only by your power and by your holy spirit through our broken vessels that we can pour out and live out your will.

Come Holy Spirit, Come Lord Jesus.
