Our Prayer Campaign is scheduled for Purim, March 8-9. Below is a suggested model, designed to bring us all into focus. Pray this at least once each day.

Father, I come before you in the name of Jesus with thanksgiving for your revelation, guidance, deliverance, and victory in all things.

I declare my solidarity with all of your people who are led by the Spirit this day to engage the enemy in spiritual warfare against the spirit of Amalek and the spirit of Revenge. Let the love of money be fully rooted out from our own hearts, and let its power be broken in the world. Let its bondage through fear of poverty be replaced by a spirit of helpfulness, generosity, and love.

We declare also that the power of the spirit of Revenge is broken and cast out of our own hearts and will have no further dominion in the earth. It is written, "You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the sons of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself" [Lev. 19:18]. Again, it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay, says the Lord" [Rom. 12:19]. So we declare that all retribution for injustice in the earth must originate from the will and law of Jesus Christ, whose love for all men made Him willing to die even for those who considered Him an enemy [Rom. 5:6-10].

I declare my agreement with Jesus Christ, to whom has been given all judgment in the earth [John 5:27]. I declare Victory this day, knowing that Love never fails [1 Cor. 13:8] and that nothing can separate us from the Love of Christ [Rom. 8:35]. "In all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us" [1 Cor. 15:37].

Thank-you, heavenly Father, for allowing us to be part of Your body and to share your sufferings, your resurrection life, and your ascension to the throne of authority and victory.
