IFA invited intercessors to sign a "petition of thanks" for Senator Tim Scott as a response to his speech that was full of references to the importance of prayer and God in our nation–nearly 13,000 responded in one way or another! A binder full of the first names of thankful intercessors was delivered in person to Senator Tim Scott's office by IFA's President Dave Kubal, Program Director Kris Kubal, and Legislative Director Camille Solberg on Wednesday. Know that your prayers, your messages, and your action is being noticed on Capitol Hill.

Part of a "day of connection" with Senate offices, the IFA contingent was welcomed warmly in the Senate offices. Senator Scott's staff was encouraged by the news that hundreds of thousands of intercessors are regularly praying for not only the Senators but also their staff. The response that Senator Scott's office got from phone calls and messages after his speech was surprisingly about 50% negative. According to Senator Scott's new book, "Opportunity Knocks," callers to his office have offered hateful and obscene responses to Senator Scott's office–many comments so vile that could not be printed here. This is the sad reality of the climate of political discourse. All the more reason for intercessors to be engaging in a positive way with your elected officials.

We connected with the offices of Senator Tim Scott (SC), Senator Ron Johnson (WI), and four other Senate offices on Wednesday. Senate staff are encouraged and strengthened when you reach out to them with encouragement and prayer. Senators who are Believers and are standing for Biblically-aligned legislation and action are often standing alone–your prayer, support, and exhortation is strategically important.

IFA recently hosted Senator Ron Johnson on our Thursday Pray for America's Leaders LIVE webcast for a briefing and to pray about the border crisis, and IFA's relationship to these lawmakers' and their staff is critical for vital intercessory intelligence.
