Watch Focus Oct 31st, 2025: Pulling down the Stronghold of Western Wokeism
In the last 10 to15 years, ‘wokeness’ has flooded Western Culture with antichrist thinking and philosophies hostile to the mind and counsel of our Creator. Wokeism is progressive and left-wing theory and practice claiming systemic social injustice and discrimination. It manifests itself in LGBTQIA+, Marxism, Communism, extreme climate change beliefs, racial tension, DEI, abortion, and radical feminism. It aims to capture the minds of young people. This is our watch focus this week.
We pray Paul’s exhortation in 2 Corinthians 10:3-5: “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ…”
And:
Ephesians 6:12, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
The spirit manifest in Israel during the reign of Queen Jezebel (1 & 2 Kings) is reflected in the woke philosophies overtaking our national discourse. In that day the Lord sent Jehu, anointed in the spirit of Elijah, to pull her down and turn the nation back to the Father (2 Kings 9:20 & 35).
We bind the spirit of witchcraft and pray for a turn around. We pray for leaders in government, beginning with the Trump administration, to rise in moral clarity and courage and unseat these philosophies in every place they are corrupting our institutions, from law enforcement and the justice system to education and media.
We declare the power of the Cross: “Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it” Colossians 2:15.
We pray, “Lord, revive effective prayer and engagement in power in every aspect of culture in the American and Western church! Return us to the guiding principles of our founding fathers built on the inspired scriptures!”
“So, Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you” John 20:21.
We pray, “Lord, send Your Church into every sphere of influence in our culture as salt and light. Anoint us to carry the Gospel and impact those areas with Your solutions and counsel.
We pray for an outpouring of the grace Daniel walked in: “Inasmuch as an excellent spirit, knowledge, understanding, interpreting dreams, solving riddles, and explaining enigmas were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar, now let Daniel be called, and he will give the interpretation” Daniel 5:12. “Then this Daniel distinguished himself above the governors and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm” Daniel 6:3.
We pray, “Lord, heal our nations! Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven” Matthew 6:10.
“In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations” Revelation 22:2.
Psalm 149:6-9,
“Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
And a two-edged sword in their hand,
To execute vengeance on the nations,
And punishments on the peoples;
To bind their kings with chains,
And their nobles with fetters of iron;
To execute on them the written judgment—
This honor have all His saints.
Praise the Lord!
