Eight Power Points: Praying Over Cultural Strongholds
Praying over cultural strongholds: A guide for warring in the spirit for our city, our island, our region, our nation, and the world.
This is the time to pray Apostolic prayers and prayers filled with the spirit of dominion to dominate. The Word of God says, "The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's; but the earth He has given to the children of men" (Psalm 115:16 NKJV). This is a time not to relent, not to shrink from our task, but to pray with authority and take dominion in the earth.
1. Pray Over Justice Issues
Isaiah 1:17 (NKJV): "Learn to do good; Seek justice, Rebuke the oppressor; Defend the fatherless, Plead for the widow."
Prayer: Pray for a great release of God's power, love, and provision in relation to abortion, human trafficking, genocide, economic slavery, and injustice. We also pray against racism, exploitation, corruption, discrimination, and oppression. May God's justice prevail in every sector of society.
2. Crisis Issues
Psalm 46:1 (NKJV): "God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble."
Prayer: Pray for a great release of God's power, love, and provision in relation to catastrophic events in nature such as weather disasters, earthquakes, tsunamis, famines, wars, and pandemics. We also lift up man-made disasters, environmental crises, and health emergencies to God's care. May His peace and restoration be upon all affected areas.

3. Political Issues
1 Timothy 2:1-2 (NKJV): "Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence."
Prayer: Pray for a greater release of God's power, blessings, creative wisdom, knowledge, and provision with regard to marketplace assignments and an end to economic crises. Be a prophetic engineer, be a prophetic marketplace prophet. Be a seer in your neighborhood, island, town, and nation, and prophesy the Word of God as written in His Word over your particular situation or territory. We also pray for integrity in leadership, just policies, and peaceful governance.
4. Economic Issues
Philippians 4:19 (NKJV): "And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus."
Prayer:
Pray for a greater release of God's power, blessings, creative wisdom, and provision regarding marketplace assignments and an end to economic crises. May God provide innovative solutions for businesses, job creation, and financial stability. Let His abundance flow in every area of the economy.
5. Family Issues
Ephesians 6:4 (NKJV): "And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord."
Prayer: Pray for a greater release of God's love, wisdom, and power regarding fatherlessness, youth issues, marriage issues, divorce issues, domestic violence, the elderly, the disabled, human slavery, human trafficking, and abuse in all forms. May God's healing and restoration touch every family, bringing peace and unity.
6. Media Issues
Philippians 4:8 (NKJV): "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things."
Prayer: Pray for the Lord to raise up media messengers with prophetic ideas and creative vision about how to do the work of the Kingdom through media. Ask Him to silence the violence, sexual perversion, and occult themes that are flooding media channels, and to combat the promotion of alternative lifestyles that contradict biblical values. May God's truth and righteousness prevail in all forms of media.
7. Educational Issues
Proverbs 22:6 (NKJV): "Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it."
Prayer: Pray that God's favor and blessings, along with righteousness and excellence, be released in our educational institutions, teachers, and classrooms. Pray that churches will engage in the education system and teach the next generation in the ways of God. May His wisdom and knowledge be instilled in every student.
8. Caribbean Cultural Expression
CARIBBEAN CULTURAL ISSUES
2 Samuel 6:14 (NKJV): "Then David danced before the Lord with all his might; and David was wearing a linen ephod."
Prayer: In our Caribbean region, there is a perversion of our cultural expression. Men and women often participate in festivities that include indecent exposure, lewd dancing, and degrading lyrics in songs. We need a generation that arises to fast and pray, overthrowing this perverse culture and turning it towards something righteous and godly. Just as David danced before the Lord with all his might while bringing up the Ark, we need men and women of God to fast and pray, bringing a holy reverence back into our islands and countries. Who will take the charge to revolutionize our culture in the name and blood of Jesus?
By praying these power points over cultural strongholds, we engage in spiritual warfare that can transform our city, island, region, nation, and the world. Through fervent prayer and unwavering faith, we can see God's Kingdom come and His will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Let us not relent but continue to pray with authority and see the mighty hand of God move in every area of our lives and communities.
