PRAYER FOR THE GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA

OH BLESSED LORD GOD, ADONAI, THE SOVEREIGN KING OF THE UNIVERSE, FATHER GOD, in the name of JESUS CHRIST of Nazareth, in the history of California were those that voted for the motto of California to be: IN GOD WE TRUST! and we ask FATHER GOD, that California be exactly that, a land and a people that place their whole trust in YOU! FATHER GOD, California is known as the golden state and so we ask for the divine nature of JESUS CHRIST and the refiner’s fire to come to California. We seek YOUR Face this day on behalf of the leaders and people of California, asking for YOU to impart and release Your Divine Tenderness, Compassion, Forgiveness, Knowledge, Mercy, Wisdom, Justice, Anointing, Discernment, Favor, Grace, Joy, Peace, Truth, Integrity, Holiness, Purity and Righteousness to them. FATHER, we pray for a heart of repentance, kindness, forgiveness, equity and reconciliation among the people of California. FATHER GOD, in the name of JESUS CHRIST, OUR MESSIAH we pray for the Commanded Blessing of the LORD GOD to be supernaturally released over the land and people of California. We pray that every portal in the heavens and earth would be sealed by the blood and anointing of YESHUA, OUR RISEN KING according to YOUR times, plans and purposes. We pray that YOU would release more angels to guard and protect all that belongs to YOU in heaven and earth. ABBA FATHER, we ask that, YOUR Kingdom come and YOUR Will be done in the hearts of the people of California. We pray that every place of worship be a place that worships the One True GOD in spirit, freedom and truth. We pray for YOUR shield of protection over the borders of California from oceanic storms, tornadoes, hurricanes and earthquakes....that the land would be settled and at peace. We pray for fruitfulness, prosperity, goodness, redemption, renewal, revival, unity, harmony and provision for the land and those that dwell within. We pray for the light of JESUS indwelling in HIS own would increase, therefore dispelling any seen or unseen darkness. We ask for a release of a spirit of reverence and fear of the MOST HIGH GOD throughout the State of California. FATHER GOD, we pray for the anointing, atonement and resurrection power of JESUS CHRIST, THE PRINCE OF PEACE and THE BRIGHT MORNING STAR over the State of California for YOUR GLORY alone! Amen! We pray for the LION OF JUDAH to roar over California and for the sound of the Shofar to be heard across the land! Amen!

EXCERPT FROM THE STATE CONSTITUTION...CALIFORNIA 1879, PREAMBLE. We the People of the State of California, grateful to Almighty God for our freedom.

STATE OF CALIFORNIA HISTORICAL INFORMATION AND SYMBOLS

FLAG: The Bear Flag is the State Flag of California. As viewed with the hoist end of the flag to the left of the observer there appears in the upper left-handed corner of a white field a five-pointed red star with one point vertically upward and in the middle of the white field a brown grizzly bear walking toward the left with all four paws on a green grass plot, with had and eye turned slightly toward the observer; a red stripe forms the length of the flag at the bottom, and between the grass plot and the red stripe appear the words CALIFORNIA REPUBLIC. Adopted in 1911 and a color revision in 1953.

• SEAL: The Constitution Convention of 1849 adopted the Great Seal of the State of California. The Roman goddess of wisdom, Minerva, has at her feet a grizzly bear and clusters of grapes representing wildlife and agricultural riches. A miner works near the busy Sacramento River, below the Sierra Nevada peaks. The Greek word: EUREKA meaning: I have found it. The thirty-one stars represent the number of States with California’s anticipated admission. Just as Minerva sprung full-grown from the head of Jupiter, California became a State on September 9, 1850.

• MOTTO: Eureka. The Greek work, Eureka, has appeared on the State Seal since 1849 and means: I have found it. Archimedes, the famed Greek Mathematician is said to have exclaimed EUREKA! when, after long study he discovered a method of determining purity in gold. In 1957, attempts were made to establish, In God We Trust, as the State Motto, but Eureka was made the official State Motto in 1963.
