I pray blessings of protection over Amy Goodman. Please heal and protect her throat chakra from all manner of disease or attack by the Enemy. May she be blessed with health as well as safety, peace, prosperity and clarity in her mission as she continues to keep the world informed of the atrocities committed globally as well as the hopeful endeavors of those defending peace and democracy across cultural, political and geographical lines. In all gratitude and praise, We Declare It So. Asé 💜🙏🏽🕊
