Speak Peace to the Storm!

The announcement of a storm named Lucifer due to hit the West Coast today is such a prophetic picture of the enemy’s rage. I can’t help but think maybe God is using it to provoke His people to pray and take authority over the enemy. We see an incredible amount of anger, rage, deception and demonic strategy all around us, but it is especially strong over the leadership of our country. The enemy is furious that he is losing ground, but he continues to work deceptively behind the scenes in order to try to prevent God’s plans and purposes from coming to pass.

Father,

In the name and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ, I declare the word of God over every adverse, contrary and divisive wind that has been set against Your people. I thank you Lord for humbling the enemy and commanding the storm known as Lucifer, and the one coming called Maleficent, to unwind and dissipate. I thank you, that demons are subject to the authority of Your people as it is written in Luke 10:17 and they must submit to the word of God as it is returned to You by our declarations. You have given your people authority over all the power of the enemy according to Luke 10:19.

Father, I thank You that according to Isaiah 14:12-15, it is written that Lucifer is cut down and brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. I thank You that this storm named Lucifer is cut down to the ground in Jesus name.

I thank You Father that it is promised to us in Genesis 3:14,15 that the curse is upon Lucifer and is already defeated, for it is written that we shall bruise the head of the enemy as we subdue him.

Father, I thank You that the beast that rises up out of the sea must bow to the name of Jesus, for it is written in Phil. 2:10,11 and again in Romans 14:11 that every name in heaven, on earth and under the earth shall bow to the name of Jesus. Therefore, I command the names of the enemy and adversary, by any name of which Satan is known, to bow and submit to the Lord Jesus Christ. “Lucifer…Maleficent…bow and submit to the name of Jesus Christ and be still in Jesus name!”

I rebuke the wind and waves and command them to be still according to Matthew 8:26.

I declare the name of Jesus Christ above the names of Lucifer, Maleficent, and any other names that make reference to some form of Satan. I command the song of the ruthless destroying winds to be brought low according to Isaiah 25:4,5 for it is written:

“For You have been a stronghold for the poor, a stronghold for the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm, a shade from the heat; for the blast of the ruthless ones is like a rainstorm against a wall.

As the heat in a dry land [is reduced by the shadow of a cloud, so] You will bring down the noise of aliens [exultant over their enemies]; and as the heat is brought low by the shadow of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless ones is brought low.”

I thank You, Father, that there is none like You. I speak to the contrary and divisive winds. I speak to the deceptive winds. I speak to the raging winds and I say they are subdued by the power of God, for in Psalm 89:9 it is written:

 “You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves arise, You still them.”

My Father, when nations rage, and the kings of the earth take their stand; when rulers take counsel together against the Lord and Your anointed, You sit in the heavens and laugh at their futility. I thank You that You have promised to subdue them, for it is written in Psalm 33:10:

“The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples.”

And in Psalm 21:11 it is written:

“Though they intended evil against You And devised a plot, They will not succeed.”

Also in Psalm 65:7 it is written:

“Who stills the roaring of the seas, The roaring of their waves, And the tumult of the peoples.”

I thank You Father that according to Psalm 46:9,10 You make wars cease. You break the bow and shatter the spear and you burn the enemy’s shields with fire. For the word of God says “Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth.”

I thank You, Father, that this storm will serve only one purpose, as it is written in Acts 26:18:

“to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.”

Father, I ask You to crush the head of the enemy according to Romans 16:20 and force the storms be still, in Jesus name.

I command the storms to cease and be still according to Mark 4:39.

I thank You that You fight for the righteous according to Exodus 14:14, and that You will use the storm to uncover hidden paths. Let these hidden paths create bridges, solutions and ways for Your people to cross over to their promise land in safety.

I thank You Father that the lawless are chased away and the descendants of the wicked are cut off so that the righteous inherit the land, according to what is written in Psalm 37:27-29.

Thank You Father that as I return Your word to You, it does not return void but it certainly accomplishes the purposes for which it is sent, according to Isaiah 55:11. Let Your angels be dispatched now to carry out the enforcement of these declarations. I thank You for subduing the enemy and providing safety and protection for those that are in the path of the storm. Let Your hand of protection be upon us so that there is no loss of life. Position Your angels to guide, deliver, and send help to those that may need an intervention. Thank You Father for being our strong tower and guiding Your people to their desired haven. In Jesus name, amen.
