OH BLESSED LORD GOD, ADONAI, THE SOVEREIGN KING OF THE UNIVERSE, FATHER GOD, in the name of JESUS CHRIST of Nazareth, we pray for Your Sovereign Power, Rule and Reign for the State of Illinois. We ask that you release YOUR Divine Mercy, Wisdom, Truth, Favor, Tenderness, Compassion, Knowledge, Light, Love, Discernment, Anointing, Righteousness and Grace to the leadership and people of Illinois. We proclaim that every place of worship will be a place where the One True GOD is worshipped in spirit, freedom and truth. FATHER GOD, we call forth a heart of equality, repentance, kindness, forgiveness, and reconciliation among the people of Illinois. FATHER, in the name of YESHUA, OUR MESSIAH, we ask that the Commanded Blessing of the LORD GOD be released in the land and people of Illinois and that the resurrection power of YESHUA, OUR RISEN SAVIOR be perpetually released throughout the state bringing forth YOUR GLORY! YOUR KINGDOM! YOUR LIGHT! & EVERLASTING LIFE! FATHER, we ask that, YOUR Kingdom come and YOUR Will be done in Illinois and that YOU graciously release YOUR liberty, freedom, unity, harmony and redemptive love through Illinois. We pray that every portal in the heavens and earth would be sealed by the blood and anointing of YESHUA, OUR GLORIOUS 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. We pray for the intercessors and prayer warriors of Illinois to be encouraged in well doing and to remain faithful in their obedience to the LORD GOD. We pray for the fullness of YOUR Holy Spirit to fill every spiritual leader and teacher in Illinois with YOUR truth, humility, divine revelation and integrity. We ask for a release of a spirit of reverence and fear of the MOST HIGH GOD throughout the State of Illinois. LORD GOD, we pray for the anointing, atonement and resurrection power of JESUS  CHRIST over the State of Illinois. Amen! We pray for the LION OF JUDAH to roar over Illinois and for the sound of the Shofar to be heard across the land! Amen!
