Prayer Letter From Silas: A Message Through Dorian

Editorial Note:  Brother Silas Titus is the founder of the Wall Street Prayer Alliance,  which is a strategic house of prayer that pray for all nations for the economic sphere.  We will periodically reprint his “Prayer Letter From Silas”.  

Chuck Pierce once spoke about Florida being the “backbone” of the nation.  If the backbone is broken or destroyed, how does one stand.”  This prayer letter provides insightful directives to pray for the coming hurricane Dorian.   We invite you, the global intercessors, to join us in prayers and stand with us in unity.  


August 30, 2019

President Trump tweeted, “Hurricane Dorian looks like it will be hitting Florida late Sunday night. Be prepared and please follow State and Federal instructions, it will be a very big Hurricane, perhaps one of the biggest!”

The word Dorian comes from the Greek word. It means ‘gift’ or ‘child of the sea.’  Hurricanes are children of the sea.

A hurricane can only form over water and water that is warm. Then you need  some unstable air moving over warm water. Warm water symbolizes misinterpretation or defilement of God’s word in the land or the people. The unstable air symbolizes the spirit of darkness. As a result a tropical depression is formed. If the clouds and storms become better organized, it then becomes a tropical storm. Finally, if the storm develops into intense tropical thunderstorms and becomes well organized with a really strong circulation, it could become a hurricane. Hurricanes are defined by a circulation with winds 74 mph or greater. As you can see the storm is formed step by step. And it takes a few days or weeks for winds to form into the force of the capacity of an hurricane.

Pursuing Intimacy With God: Watch and Pray for the Coming of the Son of Man

 

Luke 12:35-40  “Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them. It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

Dear Abba Father,

We praise You, Father! We want to speak of Your works and remember Your wonders of old. We will consider all Your acts and meditate on all Your mighty deeds. Your ways, oh God, are holy. What god is great like You?   You are the God who performs miracles; You have made known Your power among the peoples. How we praise You!   Oh Father, today in the secret place we want to meditate on Your teaching about watch and pray in preparation for the coming of the Lord. In Luke 12:35-40, the vigilant servants wait for the master to come back from the wedding banquet, and when the master comes and knocks they immediately open the door for him.   Oh Father, we desire the same vigilant spirit because You delight to see us watching and waiting for the coming of the Son of Man.   Oh Abba Father, take us to the secret place to wait for You and listen to Your voice with our whole heart. When You knock, we will open and enter joyfully into Your glory.   Oh Father, we are so blessed! How we thank You and praise You!

In the name of Lord Jesus we pray, Amen!

Repentance for Church 05

  • Exodus 20:5 – 6 “… You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lordyour God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me,  but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.”
  • Gal 3:13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole…”

Abba Father, I represent me and my family and my ancestors to confess and repent the blood covenant with satan the devil, I declare in the name of Jesus Christ: I cancel every vow made by my ancestors with the enemy, and break the power of every word, to declare it to be void. In the name of Jesus.   

( you can skip the prayers that do not relate to you, you can also pray as identification repentance for the family in the world .)

On behalf of me and my family, I confess and repent for the sacrificed my ancestors made to the false gods, evil spirits, and the behaviors of eating the food for sacrifices.I declare in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ: I renounce all ancestral sacrifices ceremonies, sacrifices, tools, instruments, and chants. I declare in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ that these rituals are totally ineffective, cutting off any ungodly connection between ancestors, and breaking all the curses brought by these sacrifices.

On behalf of me and my family, our ancestors, I confess and repent for drinking blood, eating meat, and may have used water, rice, blood, or other items to sacrifice to devils, false gods, and evil spirits (to engage with ghosts and little demons). In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I declare: I break and reject all sins committed by my ancestors. Now in the name of Jesus Christ, I break the curse of all these sins, especially the curse of the blood. (Pray for the Lord to break all the curses of the blood)

On behalf of me and my family, I confess and repent the sins of my ancestors who may have made a wish in the idol temple. I declare in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ: I forsake all these sins. In the name of Jesus Christ, I cancel, destroy all the promises, and the curses that these sins have brought.

Abba Father, In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You to confess these sins in my family. I will now hand over all these penalties inherited by ignorance to Jesus, asking Him to bear for me and make atonement for me; through His wounds and the punishments I can be released from all these negative influences. Thanks to the Lord, I can unload the burden of everything, and I receive the freedom You release to me. I also chose to forgive every ancestor who once gave me curses, so that they can be freed from the debts that may owe me.

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Pray for Israel: Repent for the Church and Bless Israel

Background: Two thousand years ago, the gospel of the Kingdom of God,  passed down from the Jews of early church to the Gentiles, greatly impacted the whole world far and wide. But Satan has blinded the Gentile Christians making us believe that God has rejected the Jews and replaced Israel with the church. However, God’s people began to see the truth when they saw the restoration of the modern day Israel fulfilling the prophecy of the Bible. We finally understand that the election of the Jews is irrevocable and that God’s covenant with Abraham is an eternal covenant.

During the forty days of prayer and fasting, as we anticipate the arrival of the Jewish New Year – 5780, we hope to see more Gentile churches being stirred up to fervently intercede for the salvation and peace of Jerusalem, that the nations would once again see her in God’s glory. 】

  • Isaiah 40:1 “Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.”
  • 2 Corinthians 1:4 “who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.”
  • Isaiah 66:10 ““Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her, all you who love her; rejoice greatly with her, all you who mourn over her.”
  • Exodus 2:24 “God heard their groaning and he remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob.”
  • Micah 6:8 “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”

PRAYER

  • Repent for the Church: Abba Father, You are the God who is, who was and who is to come. Forever You change not and Your election of the Jews is irrevocable. Oh Father, we repent before You; forgive the church’s years of neglect and opposition toward Your chosen people. We falsely believed that You have rejected them and that the church has replaced Israel, thus giving the evil a foothold to harm her. Oh Father, we ask that You would give us the love of Christ to love them and intercede for them. Oh, raise up more watchmen to call on the Lord day or night for Jerusalem. Let us not be silent and give ourselves no rest. Let us give You no rest till You establish Jerusalem and make her the praise of the earth.
  • Pray for Israel’s Salvation: Abba Father, we pray for Israel and call out to her!  Awake o Israel, cease from your slumber! Oh Father, release Your truth and set her free. Israel shall know her Redeemer in the Year of Jubilee. Father, out of the furnace of much affliction, You have chosen her; You will give her gold for brass and silver for iron. Oh Israel, Jesus has redeemed you and Father has chosen you and graven You on His palms. Oh Israel, you shall know your Redeemer as you call out to Him, “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.

Revival Testimony:The Great Awakening Revival Movement of the Eighteenth Century

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), known as the Puritan prince, is still considered to be the best theologian in the United States, the main leader of the American Great Awakening Revival Movement in the 18th century, and also regarded as the pioneer of philosophical thinking in the United States. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, when rationalism was rising (which brought about naturalism). The rational supremacy blocked the spiritual life of the church. Edwards was able to combine spiritual life with rational thinking. And lived out the life that was both rigorous and energetic. He also injected his passion into the orthodox theology that was ice cold at that time, so that theology really became the driving force for the renewal of the church. In his ministry, we saw that theology and spiritual life were complementary and inseparable. Faith and life, theology and the Holy Spirit, reason and passion were not mutually exclusive or extreme. Through Edward’s life, revival movement and theological thoughts, we have a lot to meditate on. Edward was born on October 5, 1703 in Connecticut on the east coast of the United States, ranking fifth among eleven brothers and sisters. Both parents were born in a Puritan family: the father was the pastor of the Congregational Church; he was greatly influenced by religious education at home.  Detailed Reading

Sharing of Words:  the Year of Watchmen by Jeremiah Johnson

In September of 2018, God began to speak to me concerning the year 2019 out of Isaiah 56 where God begins to rebuke the watchmen of Israel for their failure in fulfilling their assignment to the nation. I believe that in 2019, God has revealed to me that He is going to begin to deal with the watchmen (prophets, leaders and intercessors) who are failing their assignments in their various nations of the earth. Starting in verse nine through 11 in Isaiah 56, God levies 10 indictments on the watchmen in Israel. He says: … Detailed Reading

Prayer Letter From Silas: A Message Through Dorian

 President Trump tweeted, “Hurricane Dorian looks like it will be hitting Florida late Sunday night. Be prepared and please follow State and Federal instructions, it will be a very big Hurricane, perhaps one of the biggest!”

The word Dorian comes from the Greek word. It means ‘gift’ or ‘child of the sea.’  Hurricanes are children of the sea.

A hurricane can only form over water and water that is warm. Then you need  some unstable air moving over warm water. Warm water symbolizes misinterpretation or defilement of God’s word in the land or the people. The unstable air symbolizes the spirit of darkness. As a result a tropical depression is formed. If the clouds and storms become better organized, it then becomes a tropical storm. Finally, if the storm develops into intense tropical thunderstorms and becomes well organized with a really strong circulation, it could become a hurricane. Hurricanes are defined by a circulation with winds 74 mph or greater. As you can see the storm is formed step by step. And it takes a few days or weeks for winds to form into the force of the capacity of an hurricane.

Prayer of repentance with scripture declaration during hurricane Dorian:

When there is a sign of calamity, one thing we can do is repent whether one is a believer or unbeliever. God heard the prayer and humbling of Nineveh even though they were outside the covenant of being God’s people like Israel. Prayer and repentance needs to start with us the people of God. “If My people who are called by My name…” (2 Chro 7:14). 

The book of Hosea is about God’s visitation on the northern House of Israel, the
House of Joseph, also called Ephraim.  Many Bible scholars compare the USA to Manasseh and the English Commonwealth nations to Ephraim.  These group of nations have become a Great Nation and a Company of Nations (Gen 35:11, Gen 48:19).

It is prophesied that the children of Ephraim will come shaking from the west! (Hos 11:10). Is the shaking God is causing in the western world a reminder for America to humble and repent before the Lord?

  1. The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is laid up in store (Hosea 13:12). Has the sins and iniquity of the western church and America reached the high mark? Because of the Lord’s mercy He is still giving us
    time to repent.
  2.  The throes of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for it is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children (Hosea 13:13). The Lord wants to birth great things through the remnant in America while know that the enemy’s plan is for Ephraim to not to give birth. The Lord is warning us not to be distracted and be as an unwise son. You can be a son and daughter of God and still be unwise. The verse is a warning to all that are carrying the destiny and purposes of the
    Lord and haven’t seen it fulfilled yet. It is not yet time to give up. To give birth is not easy as any woman who has given birth wouldn’t deny.  However, because of the distractions, pressure, storm and so on we tend to take our focus off the Lord instead of pursuing and giving birth in this strategic time. The Bible says to be zealous and repent because He still loves us and as a result He disciplines us (Rev 3:19).
  3. Shall I ransom them from the power of the nether-world? Shall I redeem them from death? Ho, thy plagues, O death! Ho, thy destruction, O nether-world! Repentance be hid from Mine eyes! (Hosea 13:14). Know that only He can spare us from being destroyed in this fallen world. The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy but there is one who can rescue us from the power of death.
  4. For though he be fruitful among the reed-plants, an east wind shall come…(Hosea 13:15). Hurricane Dorian is a wind from the east forming in the Caribbean and expected to hit Florida.
  5. Intercessors stretch your hand against the direction of the wind Dorian just like Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. And we know the outcome. The LORD swept the sea back by a strong east wind (Exodus 14:21).
  6. “You blew with Your wind, the sea covered them; They sank like lead in the mighty waters” (Exodus 15:10). The same wind that came to destroy us He can reroute to pursue your enemies instead. Pray that His enemies be drowned in the water that work towards our destruction.
  7. “By His breath the heavens are cleared; His hand has pierced the fleeing serpent.” (Job 26:13) Pray that the Lord’s breadth clear the thunder clouds and the Lord’s hand will deal with the old serpent.
  8. Who has ascended into heaven and descended? Who has gathered the wind in His fists? Who has wrapped the waters in His garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is His name or His son’s name? Surely you know! ( Pro 30:4). Declare and call out this only name. His name is Jesus.
  9. He sends forth His word and melts them; He causes His wind to blow and the waters to flow (Psalm 147:18). Ask the Lord-the only one who can send forth His word, cause the wind to blow and water to flow and declare “Peace, Be still”. He who created the wind, “rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm” (Mark 4:39).
  10. Also note another purpose for which He uses wind and fire.  “He makes the winds His messengers, Flaming fire His ministers” (Psalm 104:4)“You lift me up to the wind and cause me to ride; And You dissolve me in a storm.”(Job 30:22).  And it came about when the LORD was about to take up Elijah by a whirlwind to heaven… there appeared a chariot of fire and horses of fire (2 Kings 2:1,11).  As intercessors we are called to communion with Him and in fervent prayer like Elijah and Elisha.  As we continue in the communion with Him, the wind and fire of the Holy Spirit does a work of purification, cleansing and transformation and translation in our lives like with Elijah.
  11. He commanded, and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves thereof; (Psalms 107:25) and causes us to be “tossed to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man,”(Psalms 107:27). Thus He causes man to
    come to the end of his wits and his wisdom be swallowed up (Psalms 107:27)  By the powers of nature, the Lord has promised us that if we cry unto the LORD in our trouble, he brings us out of our distresses (Psalms107:28). He made the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof were still (Psalms 107:29). So they rejoiced that the waves became quiet, and he led them to their desired haven (Psalms 107:30). Jesus demonstrated the Psalms 107 promise in the Gospels when He was with the disciples in the boat. He has done the same again and again over the past two thousand years and in our generation. He still speaks today, “Peace Be Still.” He speaks Shalom into the storms of our lives. He speaks stillness into our panic, anxiety, fear, worry and negative talking as we face great giants and threatened with devastating hurricanes.
  12. Jesus, at the end of the story of the storm rebukes His disciples. And He said to them, Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith? (Mark 4:40). This rebuke on fear and lack of faith is a good reminder for us as intercessors in our journey on the boat with Jesus.  And they were terribly frightened and began to say to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” (Mark 4:41). Instead of becoming fearful disciples, He is bidding us to come to know the One “Who even the wind and the sea obey him?” in a deeper and intimate way.

May this be our prayer during the 40 days prayer, Lord, I want to see you clearly, hear you distinctly and know you intimately like never before. God bless us!

Nation / Global Critical Event: Pray For Beru

Background: Peru is the 3rd largest South American country, located between the west of dry coastal plains and Andes Mountain, and left of rich Amazon jungles. 50% population is in poverty. Economical disparity rooted from political corruption, flawed tax structure and military spending. (Psa. 66:7)

There are 4 millions evangelical Christians, but only through recent years of missionary work, Broadcasts from Christian Radio Stations, and bible translations ignited much sparks to other tribes, the fruit of effective evangelism. That requires great needs of pastors and teachers with solid biblical teaching. Holy Spirit filled workers to disciple next generation of leaders, to dissipate superstitions of the tribal groups, demonstrating God’s miracles, love to poor and destitute at the doors of ministries.

Pray For USA: Keep the Children off ‘Puberty Blocker Treatment’

  • Romans 1:26 That’s why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved.
  • 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body.

Current Event :Students across the nation soon be returning to classrooms may encounter their new-former friends whose gender is changed through either hormone therapy or undergone ‘gender change’ surgery. (Ro. 1:26-27)

Gender Identifier Drugs

Today, children as young as 8 years old are being given ‘untested experiment’ drugs to find out their gender identity, much is pushed by Gender activists and the small selected groups within the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), but increasingly supportive from many medical establishment. Opposing medical experts claimed these drugs actually could cause heart and bone problems and stunt brain growth, condemned it’s a form of ‘child abuse’.

‘Puberty Blockers Treatment’ Drug is given to girl child who identified as a boy, to prevent her from going through the natural human process (puberty). The effects of these hormones medicines are not fully known, but some negative side effects have been widely reported. These children will turn into sex hormone-dependent. NIH (National Institute of Health) recommended kids as young as 8 years take opposite-sex hormones. NIH is strongly funded for study on mastectomies done on girls as young as 13.

‘Child Abuse’ here applies to a child cannot consent of being harmed in a medical study, or in a medical setting, unaware of such harms. Transgender ‘treatments’ experiments on those could not consent because their lack of intellectual capacity or emotional maturity, nor understanding the consequences of what’s going to happen to them.

Political group (WPATH), World Professional Association for Transgender Health is pushing on younger and younger children, pressured guidelines to the Endocrine Society and the American Academy of Pediatrics on opposite-sex treatments (gender identity). Dr. Michael Laidlaw of the Endocrine Society is working to counter gender activists. To educate parents that puberty medicines could not stop the puberty of a boy to turn into girl and becoming a woman is not possible. (1 Cor. 6:19-20)

Brian LaBounty,the first people testified last week about how  he aligned with God’s thought and received the blessings.  We believe Brian and Jennifer’s praise reports are just the beginning of the revival among the First Nations.  The greater revival is just around the corner!  Here is Jennifer’s  praise report:


The Seek Gathering was an appointed time by Holy Spirit for beginning of
transformation amongst the Choctaw People.

Resolve the Enmity of White and Black Choctaws Before the Gathering

Before we got to the meeting the Lord was having the Choctaws, the elders and other people deal with the disunity that was sown into the land.  Prior to the meeting the Lord spoke to me about dealing with the
Freedmen issue. The Freedmen were slaves of the Choctaws back from the 1800’s. It was said that the Choctaws were harsh to their slaves. So harsh that eventually it provoked the slaves to kill their masters. Also, the Choctaws did not want to give them land once they were free. So the government stepped into the matter gave the Freedmen land and took more from the Choctaws.

Thursday(8/1) we had a team that was Joe Donnell, a white Choctaw and a black Choctaw (Freedmen descendant), myself and we met with two elders who are full blooded Choctaw. We met at the corner of Southeast Oklahoma, the location of the history between the Choctaws and slaves. At that moment God began to break generational curses with Choctaws and African Americans. There was a reconciliation, forgiveness and unity to move forward. Then we celebrated about the transformation God began.

Find the True Identity  of the First Nation

By the time we make it to the meeting Holy Spirit led us into repentance. We realized that night we were throwing all of the burden we put on ourselves. The Lord had me share the calling of the Choctaws in this hour for the First Nations People. We hold a key that unlocks healing, Unity and Family. We will step into this if we are as One, and His Kingdom is established through the fivefold and His government will have no ending. This is the Kingdom! Then one of the Apostles of the Choctaw people asked all of us an important question so we can ask God. He asked us to ask God, “what is my part in Your great plan?” This was very key because it has to do with identity.

That first night we dealt with the orphan spirit, and then Holy Spirit pulled us into our true identity. Most importantly we all were directed to walk in relationship with the Lord about our lives.

Correct the Status of Men and Women in the Kingdom of God

The next morning(8/3) Spirit had the men speak to women. A male teacher address the incorrect teaching about women. This was very important because in this region the women have been devalued in God’s Kingdom. The Word does say wives submit, but it also says love your wife. Also the word says there is no Greek, nor Jew, nor male or female. The man is supposed to love his wife to bring her up to his equal.

Spiritual Birth

That day we also dealt with some other things that were in our culture that are not Holy to the Lord and brought a spirit of death. We stepped into this together and then we had a birth during one of the settings. Actually, it was me who birthed this and one of my best friends. I felt life come forth from this time.

After that there was a revelation that came forth in regards to tithes. In the middle of that revelation one of the elders gets up and says that is the one thing the early missionaries never taught the First Nations People was to tithe. This tithe revelation went into how our Daddy God won’t allow the devour to touch what He’s doing. That brought a lot of insight to us about how the enemy was able to destroy our people.

More Revelation on Enemy’s Tricks

From that meeting we received more revelation of how the enemy set up our
people and stole almost everything. The enemy uses the Word as his strategy to rob
us, and now we are seeing the traps he set up on our lands.

Choctaw’s Calling: Watchmen

One of the important words that came forth from these meetings are we are watchmen. That is a big role for the Choctaws in the Kingdom. We are being held and coming together as a family to take our watchmen positions and we are going to help our First Nations brothers and sisters to know their position too. We are believing to see the transformation on our land and people. This meeting brought many people who have had visions and dreams of the Glory all over the land and people. It’s more than just a feeling of Oneness but it is also to see the transformation. We have already begun to see the firstfruit of those prayers that went forth.

Firstfruits of the Seek Gathering

Our Choctaw National Day of Prayer is September 1, and for the first time we will have the Chief from Oklahoma and the Chief from Mississippi come together to pray for the Choctaw People.

Revival Testimony:The Great Awakening Revival Movement of the Eighteenth Century

Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), known as the Puritan prince, is still considered to be the best theologian in the United States, the main leader of the American Great Awakening Revival Movement in the 18th century, and also regarded as the pioneer of philosophical thinking in the United States. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, when rationalism was rising (which brought about naturalism). The rational supremacy blocked the spiritual life of the church. Edwards was able to combine spiritual life with rational thinking. And lived out the life that was both rigorous and energetic. He also injected his passion into the orthodox theology that was ice cold at that time, so that theology really became the driving force for the renewal of the church. In his ministry, we saw that theology and spiritual life were complementary and inseparable. Faith and life, theology and the Holy Spirit, reason and passion were not mutually exclusive or extreme. Through Edward’s life, revival movement and theological thoughts, we have a lot to meditate on. Edward was born on October 5, 1703 in Connecticut on the east coast of the United States, ranking fifth among eleven brothers and sisters. Both parents were born in a Puritan family: the father was the pastor of the Congregational Church; he was greatly influenced by religious education at home.

In 1716, he entered Yale College and received a rigorous humanities training. He was fluent in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. In theology, he was particularly interested in the ideas of Newton and Locke (the 17th-century British philosopher, Locke’s parents were Puritans), and these two had become tremendous influence in his future. After graduated from college in 1720, he continued to study in theology at school. On January 12, 1723, he made an important confession before God. He said, “I solemnly dedicated myself to God and recorded this event. I gave up myself and everything I have and gave it all to God; From then on, no matter what, there is no self; In everything I do, no matter what, I have no right for myself. I solemnly swear that my whole body and mind and happiness are in the hands of God; Beside Him,  there is nothing else in the world that can be my happiness.” When he graduated from the Institute in 1724, he ranked first in the class. Yale University invited him to return to school as a teaching assistant. In 1727 he had a spiritual experience, recognizing the absolute authority of God and the dependence of man on God.

Revival fire

In 1729, he was appointed as the pastor of the Northampton Anglican Church (position formerly held by his grandfather). He and other local pastors felt that the church was lethargic. Not only in the life of faith, and also in moral life. He was so worried about the human soul that he wanted to reform this situation many times. So he started the reformation with sermons. In 1733, Edwards’ two sermons: “The Holy Spirit directly shines the light of God’s supernatural light on the heart” and “justification by faith”, had caused great resounding effect among believers. It was a reflection of one’s own spiritual conditions, and the power of the Holy Spirit began to work in the heart. In 1734, two young people died in the town, but before their death, they were completely enlightened by the Holy Spirit, and they began to witness the grace of God before they passed away. Because of this, Edwards encouraged everyone to participate in the gathering and engage in talking about faith, instead of wasting life in entertainment or vain talking. In less than a few months, more than 300 people in his congregation acknowledged the name of Christ and began to show signs of revival. And the influence spread to all parts of the East, town after town  experienced revival. This was the beginning of the Great Awakening.

In 1735, the phenomenon of revival cooled down slightly to brew a wave of greater waves, but the spiritual influence began to deepen, so he had time to record this movement in detail, and to reflect on theology. He believed that revival was God’s Grace manifested in the renewal  of both body and heart. In 1737, he finally wrote and reported on the spiritual revival phenomenon, the book titled “Faithful Narrative of the Surprising Work of God”, which was published in London and Boston. By the end of 1738, it had been republished many times. This book had been widely read and prepared for another wave of “Great Awakening Movement.”

One of the record in the book reads: “There is almost no one in the town, whether men, women, old and young, not consider the important issue of eternal life. The most vain and most debauchery in the past, and those who are the most contemptuous and disdainful about the vitality and faith of spiritual life, now they all surrendered to the Great Awakening Movement. The work of convicting people to repent and convert is the most amazing. More and more each day, people received Jesus Christ in groups. Day after day, for months, we could clearly see sinners being brought out of darkness, into the glorious light; out of the horrible pits, and the miry clay and placed on the solid rock. They sang new songs praising God.

As the work of God continued, the number of true saints multiplied, and soon the town experienced magnificent changes; therefore, in the spring and summer that followed 1735, God seemed to have come to town personally: people was full of love, joy like never before, but also full of repentance. God could be seen working in almost every home. Many families were filled with joy because of receiving salvation; parents rejoiced in their children’s salvation; husbands and wives rejoice in the salvation of their spouse ”

Great Awakening Movement

Because of Edward’s book on the revival movement, this influence not only reached United States but also into the United Kingdom. In 1740, the evangelist George Whitefield (1714-1770) came from United Kingdom to the east coast of the United States for evangelical tours. The fire of the revival was rekindled. When The news of his preaching came out, and the workers within 10 miles radius immediately put down their tools in the shops and in the farm fields to come to the meeting. There were thousands of people in the audience. The church building couldn’t accommodate it. The preaching were mostly done outdoors. People come in groups to accept Jesus Christ. The Great Awakening Movement reached its peak in 1740, and Northampton became the center again. Edwards also became a central figure.

On July 8, 1741, he preached his most famous sermon, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” in Enfield, Connecticut. The fire of revival that Whitefield ignited has burned all over New England. This sermon was extremely powerful, but Edward was preaching in a peaceful and steady way not an emotional scream, he put his left hand on the podium. Read the sermon in his right hand, the scripture in his sermons are in Deuteronomy 32:35: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them

At that moment, the Holy Spirit began to move greatly. The congregation could not control their emotions and began to confess, repent and wept. Some rolled on the floor, and some held on to the seats or the pillar of the church. Obviously at that time, they felt their feet were slipping into hell. Their cries sometimes even drowned the voices of the speakers. They called on the mercy of God. For the whole night, the entire town of Enfield Seems to be facing a great enemy. Great cries can be heard from almost every house, pleading for God to save them.

For the “Great Awakening Movement”, some rationalists hold the attitude of ridicule and negation. They maintained their cold etiquette, boring sermons, and not interested in revival; the other was extremes, excited emotions, and out of order. Unrestrained noise, which brought a bad name to the Great Awakening Movement and opposition. Edwards needed to face situations on both sides. On one hand, he needs to make theological defense for revival as fact. On the other hand, he has to deal with the misunderstanding of the work of the Holy Spirit in the revival movement. His greatest contribution lies in his experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit and the gift of the Holy Spirit, providing a theological basis and pastoral guidance, freeing the church from the doctrine of keeping the doctrine but being lifeless, challenging the balance of believers of the importance of spiritual experiences and sentiment of faith.

On June 22, 1750, the Northampton Anglican Church dismissed Edward Edward Pastor by 230 votes against  23 votes. Because he decided that only those who is truly born again and who have good moral character can be qualified to receive the Holy Communion (and at that time the church allowed the unsaved people to participate in the Holy Communion), because of the persistence of Edwards some of indulged youths were being accused, their parents felt they had lost face and those opposed him, took the opportunity to stir things up, causing the dismissal of a pastor that had served the Lord for 24 years. Later he moved to the church in another town to evangelize the Indians. In 1757, he was appointed as the principal of Princeton University. He took office in January 1758. At that time, the plague broke out in Princeton, unfortunately he was infected with the measles by injecting the vaccine. He died on March 22 at the age of 56.

Edward’s life exalted God’s supreme sovereignty, human original sin and corruption, God’s grace and glory. He valued the knowledge of the truth, but also valued religious experiences . He was convinced that a person who is truly saved must have the Holy Spirit as the mark in his heart. His external life behavior will certainly reflect the reality of his inner life.

The Great Awakening Movement had a positive impact, but there were also very fierce oppositions. Some people thought that the revival was just an show of emotional fanatic, especially the physical reaction in the revival; they thought that some people were imitating others, the revival phenomenon was nothing but a collective hysteria; or think that the preacher described the scene of hell so terrible to scare the people. Therefore, Edward replied to the above misunderstandings with the “Religious Sentiment” and proposed the basis for the Bible to prove the work of the Holy Spirit.

  • Concerning strong emotional expression: even if our emotions are strong, we cannot prove that it is spiritual or not. Some people blamed every strong emotional expression. They were biased against anyone who had strong emotions toward God or spiritual things, thinking that such people were deceived. However, emotion does play a big role in the true faith. If there is a rich and true faith in our human life, inevitably, it will produce rich emotions. Love is an emotion. Can any Christian say that we should not feel deep hated and grief towards sin? Or should we not thank Him deeply for the compassion of God? Or should we not be eager in pursuing God and holiness? I Peter 1:8 ‘, “Filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy,” which expresses strong emotions; indeed, the Bible often requires us to have strong emotions. In the first and the greatest commandment, “Love the Lord Your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength” (Mark 12:30) . The Bible also commands us to rejoice greatly ” But May the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful ” (Ps 68:3) . When the Bible records the experiences of believers, they often express their strong emotions. The author of psalm: How I love Your law” ( Ps .119:97 ). It is proven that high religious feelings are not necessarily a manifestation of fanaticism. Therefore, if we only accuse someone of being a fanatic because of strong emotions, that will be serious mistakes. But on the other hand, our passionate feelings do not prove that they are really spiritual. The Bible shows that some people who are not really saved will be very passionate about religion. For example, in the Old Testament, when the Israelites crossed the Red Sea in the Egyptian exile, their emotions were greatly arose, so they sang praises to Him then, which is recorded in Exodus15:1-21; but soon they forget His deeds.
  • Concerning special reaction in the body : We must not judge by the “human body reaction” to determine whether or not God is working. Because even if our body reacts greatly by emotions, we cannot prove that it is spiritual or not. Emotion has influence on the body because of the intimate connection between the body and the soul, the flesh and the heart. Therefore, it is not surprising that strong emotions have a great impact on the body. However, strong emotions may come from the flesh or the spirit. Therefore, a physical influence cannot prove that the experience is only physical, or really spiritual. But a strong and profound spiritual emotion can indeed have a great impact on the body. The psalmist said: “My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord;  my heart and my flesh cry out to the living God.” (Psalm 84:2) , it also shows that there is a clear distinction between soul and body. There are many records of the glory of God in the Bible, and a strong physical influence on those who see the glory of God. For example, Daniel said,“So I was left alone, gazing at this great vision; and I had no strength left, my face turned deathly pale and I was helpless” (Den. 10:8) . This is also the reaction of the apostle John when he saw the vision: ” When I saw Him, I fell at His feet, as though dead” (Rev. 1:17).
  • Concerning the message about hell: If the preacher often preached sincerely and gently about God’s law being so awesome and holy, and thus bring revival, some say that this revival came because the preacher used the lake of fire in hell to intimidate the congregation. This argument is not without reason. If there is pain and suffering that will never cease, and if there is hell, and if many people are very likely go to hell, then of course they need to be warned! If most people, even those in the so-called Christian countries, will eventually go to hell, then it is necessary to warn them! We must tell them the truth as much as possible. In a worldly crisis. people can not take it lightly.
  • Verification of the work of God : If one is more respectful and admires Jesus, it is a clear sign of the work of the Holy Spirit. For example, a person: 1) is convinced that he needs Christ and is brought before Him; 2) believes that Christ has appeared in human history; 3) is more convinced that Christ is the Son of God and is sent by God to save sinners; 4). Recognize that He is the only Savior and a sense of great need for Him; 5). Devote in Him more and admire Him more than before. We are certain that this is work of the Holy Spirit.

Sharing of Words:  the Year of Watchmen by Jeremiah Johnson

In September of 2018, God began to speak to me concerning the year 2019 out of Isaiah 56 where God begins to rebuke the watchmen of Israel for their failure in fulfilling their assignment to the nation. I believe that in 2019, God has revealed to me that He is going to begin to deal with the watchmen (prophets, leaders and intercessors) who are failing their assignments in their various nations of the earth. Starting in verse nine through 11 in Isaiah 56, God levies 10 indictments on the watchmen in Israel. He says:
All you beasts of the field, all you beasts in the forest, come to devour. His watchmen are blind; they all are ignorant; they all are dumb dogs, unable to bark; sleepers lying down, who love to slumber. They are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds who cannot understand; they all turn to their own way, every one for his gain, from his territory.
The 10 Indictments

  1. The watchmen are blind.
  2. The watchmen know nothing.
  3. The watchmen are dumb dogs unable to bark.
  4. The watchmen are dreamers lying down.
  5. The watchmen love to slumber.
  6. The watchmen are greedy dogs.
  7. The watchmen are never satisfied.
  8. The watchmen are shepherds without understanding.
  9. The watchmen have turned to their own way.
  10. The watchmen enjoy unjust gain.

Isaiah invites the beasts of the field to come and devour the land because the watchmen have not fulfilled their assignments. In this time in history, large watchtowers were placed overlooking the fields in Israel. In the seasons when the crops ripened toward harvest, men would stand watch, guarding the fields from animals or from thieves who would steal the crops. With the town’s primary food source at stake, the watchmen’s role was critical. It was even necessary for survival!

Isaiah ends chapter 56 with this: “Come,” they [the watchmen] say, “let us get wine, and let us fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow shall be as today, only more so.” The watchmen in Israel had completely abandoned their calling to the point where they had now become instruments of evil. In an hour where they were needed for the protection and survival of a nation, they were drowning in compromise and wickedness. However according to Isaiah 21, the watchmen were apparently alert, awake, and fulfilling their calling in years past. Verse 8 says, “O Lord, I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime, and I am stationed at my guard post every night.”

The Watchmen in 2019

I believe God is coming to confront His watchmen, leaders and intercessors in 2019 in the nations of the earth with a serious rebuke and stern warning. God says to the watchmen,

“Your nations are being ravaged by evil, many of your churches have become compromised beyond measure, some of your marriages and even your children are suffering because you refuse to cry aloud and spare not. Have I not called you to warn the people?” says the Lord. “Have I not called you to warn of impending disaster if My people do not repent and turn to Me? Why have you chosen to remain silent when I have placed fire within your bones to trumpet My Words with My heart? Where has the conviction gone in the hearts of My watchmen?

“They have failed to station themselves on My wall, but I say to you that I am granting another opportunity to climb upon the wall. Climb upon the wall of your families! Climb upon the walls of your churches! Climb upon the walls of your nations! Yes! There is a call to the wall in 2019!

“My watchmen must rise and speak forth My words to the people without compromise. They must wake up from their slumber and put away their drunkenness. The harvest is at stake,” says your God. “If the watchmen do not begin to sound the alarm in the nations of the earth, the harvest of souls that I desire to bring to the earth will greatly suffer.”

Three Watchmen Calls in 2019

There are three specific watchmen calls that I believe God is going to highlight in 2019. They are as follows:

  1. Families

One of the primary issues God wants to address in 2019 is the systematic breakdown of marriages and families. God told me that He is specifically addressing fathers and challenging them to get on the wall of their families and become men of prayer. Fathers have a priestly function in their homes and must provide a safe covering for their families.

God also specifically spoke to me that He was going to confront video game addiction in families in 2019. In a recent series of prophetic dreams, I saw the spirit of perversion fellowshipping with the spirit of entertainment.

I saw millions of people specifically playing video games and as they did, demonic forces would enter into their home. God showed me that the spirits of lust, pornography and suicide can all be directly connected to addiction to video games.

I believe God is sounding the alarm to parents who are allowing their kids to spend hours and hours a day playing video games. They could be possibly opening themselves and the home up to perversion and suicidal thoughts. I saw depression trying to overtake this generation and its connected to a love for entertainment.

The average age of a video game user is 35 years old. We not only have an epidemic of children and teenagers addicted to video games, but we have a generation of young fathers and husbands addicted to video games. Satan is stealing the eyes and imaginations of a generation through the video game industry and baptizing many of them into lust, pornography and depression.

  1. The Education System

In 2019, we are going to see an incredible watchman anointing coming upon teachers in the education system. God said to me, “Christian teachers in the education system are going to become more strategic than pastors in churches.” I saw Christian teachers beginning to take dominion and authority over their classrooms and schools like never before.

There is deep darkness raging in the earth right now concerning our children. God showed me that we are going to see several attempts at mass shootings in the education system thwarted and exposed by watchmen praying before they can materialize in 2019. There will even be Christian parents whom God will stir to go into their children’s classrooms as hidden agents of change to decree light and revival into the atmosphere in 2019.

  1. Churches

God said to me that we are going to witness an unusual prophetic anointing come upon pastors in 2019. Amos 7:15 says, “But the Lord took me away from the flock, and the Lord said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.'” Unusual prophetic utterance will overtake many pastors who are faithfully shepherding the flock of God. A watchmen anointing is coming upon the shepherds in 2019.

God even began to show me a new wineskin that is forming in the church and the great conflict it will bring to many. I’m convinced from what has been made known to me by the Spirit of God that many church leaders who refuse to drop the microphone and get off a stage to learn how to actively mother and father the generations will become obsolete in the days ahead, “obsolete” meaning “out of date.” Churches shutting down. No longer effective and bearing-fruit type obsolete.

The “old wineskin” in the church is currently trembling because the saints are over the one-man, ministry-does-all model. They are looking for fathers and mothers who are willing to roll up their sleeves and do life with them. They don’t care much about the sermons anymore. They are actually looking for church leaders to model a healthy marriage and what it looks like for your kids to serve the Lord with everything in them.

The old wineskin in the church is confused because the saints can see through and recognize fake more than ever before. The days of plastic smiles and worshipping platform ministry are over. The living room in people’s homes is now becoming the main attraction and focus. The saints are going to be taught and learn how to steward the presence of God in their homes before they ever try to welcome Him in a church service.

My heart aches and groans for so many church leaders in America (especially those in their 50s and 60s) who are set on continuing to do a model of church that has become obsolete. It worked back in the day, but those days are over. I continue to meet church leaders across the world who are completely disconnected from the hunger rising in the generations in the earth. As one church leader in his early 60s recently told me, “The problem with the current hunger in this generation is that they want intimate relationship, which requires too much out of church leaders. In my day, the people were satisfied with coming and watching us minister. Now the people actually want to get involved; it’s too bad.” (I actually wept right in front of him.)

As someone who interacts with hundreds of church leaders, I can assure you that this is not an isolated incident. I’m prophesying to you that thousands of church leaders in America are on the ropes, not sure if they can even keep going, because they have failed to recognize the new wineskin that is forming in the church. The church leaders in the days ahead who will form the new wineskin that God will pour out the new wine into (whether they be 25 or 65 years old) will model and teach the following:

  1. Drop the microphone.
    2. Get off the stage.
    3. Fire the armor bearers and entourage.
    4. Stop hiding in the Green Room.
    5. Be accessible and available to the people.
    6. Don’t ask people to do anything you won’t do.
    7. Father and mother through discipling.
    8. Be real and transparent. Share the mistakes.
    9. Value the prayer room over the platform.
    10. Don’t compromise the Word of God.
    11. Invite saints into your home and lifestyle.
    12. Empower and make room for others to lead.
    13. Train, equip and release.
    14. Multiplication and legacy are the standard.
    15. Humility brings honor, and pride repels saints.

Keep Your Eyes Open

Keep your eyes open as a strong watchmen anointing comes upon the body of Christ in 2019. We are going to see reformation, confrontation and warning take place specifically within families, the education system and the church. We must continue to pray and ask the Spirit of God how each one of us can be used to watch and be alert in the days we are living in!
