Connecting the Global Apostolic Prophetic Networks
- To the one who is victorious and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations that one ‘will rule them with an iron scepter and will dash them to pieces like pottery’ just as I have received authority from my Father. Rev 2:26-27
- I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint. Habakkuk 2:1
- Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth. Philippines 2:9-10
God wants to give the church the power and authority to subdue the nations, like the authority that Jesus received from the Father. God wants to call all in heaven and on earth and under earth to bow their knees to the name of Jesus. In order for the church to know the authorities of God, the church must be in the authority of 1) Be an overcomer 2) Obey the command of God till the end, just like Daniel.
If you hope to see the great effects of building the global 24/7 prayer wall, then 1) Encourage all intercessors to self-clean and be the overcomer by the grace of God 2) Obey God’s commands and ask for God’s will, just like the clear instructions Joshua received. Before the city of Jericho crumbled, God gave the strategy for attacking Jericho (” I am going to be the captain of your army”). Joshua following the command of God, marched around the city of Jericho for seven days, then shouted, and the wall of Jericho fell.
Today we face fierce battles in the world. We must have the command and strategy from Heaven, align with God daily, and obey the Lord of Hosts, to lead and guide us to see victory and breakthrough.
So our global 24/7 prayer walls will connect the global network of apostolic prophets into prayers aligned with God. For example, Habakkuk watched what the Lord said to him on the watchtower; in the same way we asked God to raise a prophetic watchman around the world, like Habakkuk in the watchtower to see what God is saying. When the prophet receives the instructions of heaven from God, the military orders and strategies will be conveyed to the apostles, and they will pass them on to the intercessors of the 24/7 prayer walls. Then the intercessors who are participating in the global 24/7 prayer walls will be led unanimously by the captain of the Lord of host and fight the good fight.
We believe the secret of victory in the war of our prayers is God’s presence, power and guidance. Therefore, we would like to invite the intercessors who participated in the global forty days fasting prayers to pray for the two countries designated each week. If God shows you the direction and strategy in intercession, please email us and after cooperative discerning, we will send a prayer to the 24/7 prayer wall intercessors.
1 John 5:14-15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.
9/19-9/22 International House of Prayer “Convergence” Homecoming Gathering Thanksgiving & Sharing
[Thanksgiving Report – Celebrating the 19th Anniversary of International House of Prayer (IHOPKC), on 9/19/1999, the International House of Prayer was established on the Day of Atonement in Kansas City and 9/19/2018 is also the Day of Atonement. On this God’s appointed day, we “converged” in the homecoming gathering. We can truly feel the earnestness of God’s heart waiting for His children to return home. During 9/19-22 four days of gathering, more than a thousand Chinese gathered at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City to worship, wait on the Lord, and get to know each other. Thank God for He has done great things. Now, it is God’s time, through the global Chinese homecoming, IHOPKC is walking into God’s destiny]
Editor’s note: Thanks to the global family for their prayers and intercessions; God has done great things in this convergence. The following are the thanksgiving reports:
- Joining of the two streams: the convergence of “Homecoming” and “International House of Prayer”. The merging of the East and the West fulfills God’s heart,\. He has long waited for, as John 17:11, the prayer of the Lord Jesus: “Holy Father,keepthrough Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be oneas Weare one.”
- God is doing great things in the International House of Prayer: on the 19th Anniversary celebration of IHOP, Mike Bickle shared that Prophet Bob Jones prophesied to him 35 years ago what God wants to do in the Grandview City:
- A 24/7 house of prayer with nonstop worship will be established.
- Former President Truman’s, who was a political intercessor, estate will be handed over to the International House of Prayer.
- Asia will be the greatest connection in this house of prayer.
In the past 19 years, 24/7 house of prayer was established. 10 years ago, in 2008, God also supernaturally handed over the estate of former President Truman to the hands of the International House of Prayer. Today, nearly a thousand Chinese families in the “Homecoming” team came here to celebrate with the International House of Prayer and connect with each other. The third prophecy of the prophet – connection with Asia – is happening right before our eyes.
- Sharing the journey of Chinese Homecoming: Chinese Homecoming families shared their stories. Two sisters who are leaders in Chinese churches shared how in the midst of their challenges and difficulties, they continued to pursue God because they are eager to see the unity in John 17 happen in the Chinese church. Two brothers shared how Papa David Demian and Papa Gideon Chiu entered into China to find Chinese families to come home. When these “Homecoming” fathers stood in their position as fathers, they were able to feel the warmth, protection, covering and commitment. These beautiful living testimonies greatly touched everyone in the meeting. They are like what’s said in Hebrews 11:38b s “The world was not worthy of them” and inspired the congregation to return to the first love.
- The transformation of the International House of Prayer: “Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? (Isaiah 66:8) These touching testimonies of the Chinese family brought tremendous impacts to the International House of Prayer. The Holy Spirit stirred Diane Bickle’s heart and gave her a deep hunger and thirst for the IHOP team to have the same kind of covenant relationship that they are to be committed to support each other like the Chinese family. Because her humble heart cried out, everyone travailed in prayer with her. Many of the leaders of IHOP were also moved by the Holy Spirit. Under the leadership of Pastor Bickle and Diane, they confessed their sins and repented before the people that they be used to be ministry-oriented, only father to the visions, not to be father of the family; members of IHOP forgave and accepted the leaders as fathers and mothers in the family. Thus, the family of IHOP was born. IHOP enters into version 2.0. The beginning of the 20th year of IHOP will no longer be vision-oriented, but cherish the relationship between family more than the ministries.
- Pray for the International House of Prayer: Pastor David Demian appealed to the global family to pray for IHOP, especially for the next three months. (Ezra 10:9), for each of them to stand in their position and for the hearts of the father to turn to the children and for the hearts of the children to turn to the father. Let the parents be filled with love, humility, and acceptance, to stand strong, and to raise up royal children. We pray that the Kingdom’s culture of honor will be manifested in IHOP so that such transformations can be spread to all of the Houses of Prayers and the children of God all over the world through various connections of IHOP.
- Unified Bride: Finally, the leaders, teams of IHOP, and Homecoming family declared with one heart: “We are the church, we are the bride, love makes us strong, to lay down our lives”. May God’s will be done in IHOP as it is in Heaven!
Pray for the last 40 days of the 2018 US Midterm Elections (9/27-11/6)
The team of the global 24/7 prayer wall feels strongly the importance and urgency of the US mid-term elections. Now is the battle between the kingdom of God and the kingdom of Satan:
- The level of hatred and rage of opposition forces against President Trump is so incredible, and beyond believe, in part because:
- He spoke out bravely for Christians and advocated for the nation to be the rule by the Holy Bible;
- He resumed campus prayer, to save the next generation of the United States, also whether it is in school, the Congress, or sports event, people can begin with prayers; He advocated the abolition of the Johnson Amendment Act to give back the religious freedom to speech to the American Church;
- He officially declared Jerusalem to be the capital of Israel
He stands on God’s side, and becomes the number one enemy of Satan’s kingdom. Through him, God is shaking and disintegrating the “deep state” behind the United States that control the political and economic circles. The main brain behind this “deep state” is the Freemasonry and the Illuminati. Former US President Kennedy was not willing to serve under the Freemasonry and was assassinated. The enemy set up a special strategy to try to assassinate President Trump and his family. It has been reported although it is yet to be confirmed that a special agent of the President unfortunately died from poison while tasting the food prepared for the President and the First Lady.
- The November 6 election is not only a referendum to President Trump, it is also a referendum on the Christian faith; it is about referendum on freedom of speech and the First Amendment.
- If the Republican Party loses the majority of the congress, the leftist Democrats will “without any hesitation” end what the conservatives have done. This election may disintegrate the earnest efforts of the conservatives in the past. The Democratic Party will be like the anti-fascists (Antifa) and other related groups to very quickly and violently overthrow what President Trump has done.
- Countries such as China and the European Union outside the US are also waiting for the results of the November election to overthrow President Trump’s foreign economic strategy.
- Evangelical leaders should mobilize Christians to vote as soon as possible, otherwise they will enter into a period of turmoil in the next two years, because this election may cost us of all our efforts.
This is the moment the United States fights for the turnaround! God is releasing the spirit of mercy and supplication in the hearts of the intercessors of the world. God wants to completely overturn the political and economic sphere of the US government. The transformation of the United States will bring about global change. Therefore, the 24/7 prayer wall team encourages all intercessors to make the final 40-day prayer sprint for the 2018 US mid-term elections. In addition to the general 24/7 prayers, please concentrate your fervent prayers on the US mid-term elections. May every God chosen servant be elected, and they will each be in their positions to perform their duties. May they be strong and courageous, full of the Holy Spirit, ready to be used by God, to fulfill God’s will for the United States and the nations!Please pray especially for President Trump. And vice president Pence and his family, they are blessed coming in and going out.
[Editor Note: Please pray the prayers in the Global urgent Prayer for the 11/6 US Midterm Election.]
Please Pray Fervently For President Trump
God is shaking through President Trump:
- the Muslim countries
- the countries whose politics and economy have been controlled and manipulated by Freemason and Illuminati
- the countries that resist the gospel and persecute Christians
He is not perfect and has his human weaknesses, but
- He spoke boldly for the Lord; he had publicly declared that he would govern according to the principles of the Bible.
- He reintroduced prayers back to the schools to rescue the next generation; all the school, congress, and sport events can now begin with prayers.
- For the sake of one pastor, he was willing to offend the Republic of Turkey, her fellow NATO member.
- He went to the airport personally to welcome the returned American citizens released from North Korea.
- He abolished the Johnson Amendment, now giving the American churches religious freedom of speech.
- He officially declared that Jerusalem is the Capital of Israel.
God is speaking to the world through President Trump. Do not touch God’s anointed one. Through him, God is speaking to the countries that persecute Christians, “Let My people go”, so the gospel can go forth to protect religious freedom of Christianity. Through him, God is taking back lost ground and once again bringing the United States of America back to God’s destiny and stand on God’s side. God definitely stands with Trump. Now, evil powers have joined forces to attack him and pull him down through the media and his political opponents by using accusations, smears and slanders, especially trying to influence the outcome of the Mid-Term Election. We believe God is calling intercessors all over the world to jointly pray for President Trump during this critical time. Because of our praying in one accord,
- God will watch and protect him and his cabinets to continue to govern the USA. God will vindicate President Trump from all of these accusations, defamation and slanders.
- God will help President Trump and his cabinets to continue to align with God and to make godly decisions that please God and bring blessings to the nations.
- Through President Trump and his cabinets, God will continue to speak to the nations, to shake off what can be shaken in the illegal manipulations in both the economy and politics, to resist all the schemes from Satan and to regain what was lost.
We encourage all the intercessors to pray for President Trump and his cabinets daily according to the prayer guidelines in the world leader section. If the Holy Spirit reveals to you other matters regarding President Trump, please pray according to God’s will. God bless you!
Urgent Prayer for the Appointment of Justice Kavanugh
[Current Events: Just this month, after five days of the appointment hearing of Justice Kavanugh in the US Senate, a sudden accusation against Justice Kavanugh, appearing at the last moment, is really questionable. As Christine Blasey Ford responded to the allegations of sexual assault by Justice Kavanugh, accused Kavanugh of sexually assaulting in high school 36 years ago, and the appointee Kavanugh was in crisis. Then another woman came out and accused Kavanugh of exposing himself to her when they were at Yale.
It is difficult to determine who’s right or wrong, concerning these things happened 36 years ago. We believe that Judge Kavanugh is a respectable and qualified judge. Everyone can see that these are just their smearing tricks. The enemy is trying to stop the United States of America to walk into her destiny.
Kavanugh, the highest judge nominated by US President Trump, denied the allegations and wrote to the senators that the allegations are intended to destroy his “good reputation.” Kavanugh said: “I did not do this back in high school or at any time.” On Monday, 9/24, Kavanugh told Fox News that despite his actions against him. Sexual assault charges, he is not ready to withdraw from the election, he will not back down. He called for a fair process: “I will not let false accusations drive me out of the confirmation process.” President Trump also defended his nominees when he spoke to reporters at the United Nations. President Trump: “Judge Kavanugh is an outstanding person. I always stand with him.”
The Republican leader said that the allegations of sexual assault against Kavanugh were the “Smear Campaign” of the Democrats, and the Democratic Party opposed Kavanugh’s nomination from the beginning. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said: “The Senate Democrats and their colleagues are trying to ruin a person’s personal life and career through unsubstantiated charges decades ago.”
At the same time, Democrats demanded a slowdown in the hearing to ensure a full investigation of the two allegations. On Thursday (9/27), Professor Ford, who accused Kavanugh of sexual assault, will go to the Senate to testify, and then Kavanugh will testify. Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee elected Rachel Mitchell, a female prosecutor for sexual crimes in Arizona, to lead a hearing on the 9/27 hearing to circumvent the public opinion of Republican members.
The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on the appointment of the Chief Justice of the highest judge, Kavanugh, on 9/28, 9:30 AM EST. 】
[Dutch Sheets’ open letter on 9/24 also emphasizes:
A generation of Americans has given itself to erroneous and destructive beliefs: anti-biblical thinking; humanism (humans are their own god); secularism (the view that education and civil policy should be conducted without a religious element); and death (abortion). As a result, we are now ruled by the spirit that produced these beliefs.
The reality of this was on full display at the confirmation hearing of Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump’s nominee to the Supreme Court. The level of deceit, lies, slander, and arrogant pride was shocking, displayed not only by the protesters, but also by opposing senators. These are several significant thoughts
- First, the level of spiritual warfare was extraordinary, a war of historical proportions is underway for the soul of our nation, a war that will have worldwide implications. Like Israel, America’s role on the earth is extremely significant. Israel was chosen to bring forth the Messiah, the Savior of the world; America was chosen to be the foremost messenger of this “good news.” Understanding this, there is little wonder that such an intense spiritual war for our destiny is occurring.
- At the Kavanugh hearings, I was also amazed by the level of viciousness coming from “the left.” Some of them seem to have lost all decency—their liberal agenda is all that matters. This segment of America’s leaders is determined to maintain control over our nation—truth, honor, integrity, civility, morality, and the lives of babies be damned. Do not be deceived, they despise what we stand for and will not relent in their opposition. To these elitists, we really are “deplorable.” And I assure you, this war is winner take all.
- The emphasis on abortion coming from those on the left was enlightening. During the Kavanaugh hearing, the right to abort babies was mentioned or alluded to by the Democrats ten to one over any other subject.It is unfathomable to me that we have come to a point in America’s history where the number one goal and concern of half her leadership—and perhaps half of her population—is the right to abort babies. Clearly, this is demonic. The resulting bloodshed of 60 million innocent babies has caused our land to become defiled. This, in turn, has allowed a spirit of violence and death to rule over us.
- Though this is America’s true condition, I believe America is about to experience the greatest revival and restoration in her history…again, if we continue to pray. One of the keys to this restoration, however, is thetransformation of our judicial branch of government. The left’s efforts are an attempt to delay the confirmation vote until after the mid-terms, in hopes that through these elections, they will regain control of Congress., in hopes that in 2020 a pro-choice president could be elected, allowing them to maintain control of the Supreme Court. 】
[Pray for the appointment of Judge Kavanugh]
- Pray for the entire family of Judge Kavanugh: Father God, we pray for the family and appointment of Judge Kavanugh, You rule and reign over the voting of the appointment of the Judicial Committee of the Senate, may Your will be done.
- Justice Kavanugh’s hearing and nomination vote will succeed: Father God, we declare by Your judgment of truth and righteousness that Justice Kavanugh has already won before the public testimony hearing. We declare that all obstacles and delays will be turned quickly! The appointment of Justice Kavanugh will be a success.
- Any attack of the enemy is ineffective: Father God, we bring the hearing of the accusation against Justice Kavanugh before You, we declare that any enemy’s snare is to be split before the world, and the evil conspiracy will be shamefully exposed in the world. Father God dispatch angels to fight against the enemy, bringing fear and despair to the enemy, and all the wicked intentions are defeated, and none effect. These attacks are ineffective, and evil schemes are exposed.
- The Lord Jesus has total victory over the appointment of Justice Kavanugh: We declare in the name of Jesus and take up the God given authority as watcher, to command the false accusations, lies, witchcraft, sorcerers, and the dark powers to leave immediately! In the name of Jesus, the media fake news will be silenced! The dark altar that shakes the hearts of the people and the Senate will collapse! We declare that the Lord Jesus Christ is personally reign over the appointment of Justice Kavanugh. We thank and praise Lord Jesus for the appointment of Justice Kavanugh, Jesus is the victorious King!
- Transform the judiciary branch: asking God to give a breakthrough and transformation of the judiciary branch to make the Supreme Court a majority in the anti-abortion, respect for the constitution, and judge by interpretation in accordance with the constitution.
- The US Supreme Court turned to God completely: ask God to vacate another Supreme Court seat, so that the US Supreme Court will completely turned to God.
Daily Prayer Declaration
Dear intercessors,
Today, the Editor’s team has received that in the remaining days of fast and prayer, we will pray and declare the following four topics.
Ask God to save the souls of the members of Free Mason and Illuminati
- In the name of Jesus, the sovereignty of the Lord of Host will replace the control and manipulation from Freemason and Illuminati in politics, economy and other areas.
- In the name of Jesus, the Lord of Host will send Michael the Archangel and the angelic host to destroy the dark power from Freemason and Illuminati in politics, economy and other areas.
- In the name of Jesus, all members that belong to Freemason and Illuminati will return to You and be saved.
Ask God to save the souls of Islamic extremists
We know the danger that Islamic extremists bring to the world with their terror attacks and their prayers that often become the curses toward Israel and the rest of the world. Especially during Ramadan, the destructive power of Islamic extremists can increase enormously (for example, the deadly suicide bomb attacks in the Indonesian city of Surabaya this year and the Philippine City that was besieged by Islamic State-linked militants). Let us declare the following:
- In the name of Jesus, the blessings and the peace of God will replace all the curses from Islamic extremists.
- In the name of Jesus, all the terror attacks that Islamic extremists plan will fail and be interrupted before they can even start.
- In the name of Jesus, the salvation and grace of God will come into the lives of these Islamic extremists.
Ask God to save the souls of the LGBT group
In addition, the trend of LGBT is actively searching its way into the schools of every nation, pushing the legalization of homosexual education and same-sex marriage. Therefore, we need to pray and declare the following every day:
- In the name of Jesus, the promotion of LGBT ideology all over the world will fail, including the legalization of same-sex marriage and homosexual education.
- In the name of Jesus, the grace of God and salvation will come to the LGBT group.
- In the name of Jesus, one husband and one wife system will be restored all over the world.
- In the name of Jesus, young people will wake up and reject the ideology and value of same-sex marriage. They will embrace the truth and teaching of one husband and one wife system.
[Back to Top]
Ask God to keep all the nations out of the war crisis and into peace
- In the name of the Lord, the whole world will enter into a season of reconciliation and peace, to break away from the enemy’s division and tricks to detonate wars. We especially ask you God to preserve China-US relationship, United States-Russia relationship, Taiwan-China relationship, and the relationships between Middle East Muslim countries and Israel.
The Ba’kalalan Revival
Ba’kalalan is a cluster of villages located near the Sarawak/Sabah/Kalimantan border, some 2700 feet above sea level. Named after the Kelalan river which flows through the fertile area, it is home of the hospitable Lun Bawang people (formerly called Muruts).
Once fierce head-hunters given to excessive drinking and quarrels in the days of the Rajah Brooke, the early British colonia government had more or less left them to die out as a tribe because they were often “drunk before dawn”, plagued with diseases and wasn’t deemed salvageable as a people. When the gospel reached them 60 years ago, their lifestyles changed. Prized heads inherited from their ancestor were destroyed. The drinking stopped. So did their animistic practices. Wholesale conversion of longhouses and villages took place. However, over the next thirty years, the fire dimmed and the Lun Bawang people became spiritually complacent and dry.
In 1984, an outpouring of the Spirit took place in the villages of Bakalalan. This visitation was accompanied with unusual signs and wonders: water changed to oil, rice to flour, and fireballs and stars of fire lit up in the sky. There were angelic visitations. Central to this was a man of prayer and much humility called Agung Bangau. Just as God used Evan Roberts in Wales and William J. Seymour in Azusa, Pak Agung (as he was known) was used by God as the point man. He used to foretell the appearance of many of the signs that appeared during the years of 1984-85. Both the timing and the nature of these unusual manifestations together with the prophetic words released by him brought the people into awe and reverence of God and led to widespread repentance and worship. Some of the most beautiful singing you will ever hear in Sarawak are from this part of the world. It reminds you of what God did in Wales when new songs flowed from the softened hearts of previously crude and hardened coal miners.
The years after the first revival in the late 1920’s, which saw a dramatic transformation to the people and the land, were bountiful and peaceful. Everyone in the village worshiped the God of Israel and professed Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Little did they know that God had greater plans for them.
In 26 October 1973, the bible school teachers from Theology School of Sijil Injil Borneo (SIB) Sarawak and Sabah conducted a Teacher’s Seminar in Kampung Baru Theology School, Krayan, Indonesia. Participants came from all over Indonesia to learn all they can from the experienced teachers. After the conference ended, Pak Tagal invited several Indonesian evangelists to visit SIB Buduk Nur, Ba Kelalan. These evangelists originated from Timur, Kopang and East Java where revival has taken place about 20 years before. Together they gave advice and guidance on how to harness the power of the Holy Spirit. This was the turning point where Pak Tagal learned about the mighty work of the Holy Spirit. A desire and deep longing came to his heart to hear what God has spoken or revealed to them through visions, prophecy or audible voice. He led a prayer group with like-minded souls and God, in His grace, imparted many gifts during this time to the group. Every vision and prophecy was subjected and filtered with the Word of God to verify that the source is indeed from God.
A man called Pa Agong Bangau and a lady called Maria Gukang were part of this prayer group. God raised them up as His spokespersons and gave them the gift of prophecy. Through Pa Agong, God revealed His plans and purposes to establish Mount Murud as the site for His church. The church since 1973 was neither hot nor cold. But in 1984, there was a wave of revival. A church leader, by the name of Agung Bang Ngau (40+), was a prayer warrior. He would go up to the nearby mountain of Gunung Belinggi to pray from 6 pm to 6 am.
Agung even went all the way to Lawas’ highest mountain, Bukit Tabul, to seek God’s face. He then spoke to the people and convinced them that God was going to show a marvelous miracle up in Gunung Murud (2,423m). At that time, there was no trail and climbing up that mountain was extremely difficult. Nevertheless, some 700+ people, young and old, believed him and went up. They formed a line like ants and Agung’s instruction was if there was anyone who got injured, every one must come to his aid. At the mountain top, Agung collected a few stones and collected water from the stream. On top of the stones, he also placed some moss which were abundant. He then poured the water on them. Thereafter, he asked one of them, Pak Taggal, to collect some burning tweaks to light up the stones, but failed.
Agung then gestured the people to move away, warning that the fire would be huge. He removed the ceremonial belt from his waist, about a meter long. Its colour was red, white and yellow. He then used a long stick to go through the belt and pointed one end of the stick towards the rocks. Suddenly, there was a big fire rising 30 feet high. The fire was awesome. The next morning there was no sign of the fire. The trees and leaves were not burnt. Only the rocks had been broken into pieces. This was the miracle that caused a new wave of revival.
Two months after their exciting prayer meeting at Mount Murud, a group of 40 worshippers went up to camp at Kebun Batu (Rock Garden), Mount Murud. In their second prayer meeting on the mountain, the rocks around them moved and the stones stared jumping up and down. The trees changed their colours. The people were amazed at all of this beauty. “What does this all mean, Lord?” Pa Agong cried out in wonderment. God said, “This is the place I give to you to come and worship me. As you worship and pray, everything will move and praise the Lord. Even the colour of the trees and grass will change. It means that everyone who comes to this mountain to worship me wholeheartedly will be changed. They will love one another and love me more.”
Agung then rallied the people to build a church in the mountain. The area that he pointed at (where the present Church Camp is now located) was deeply forested. No one was able to see that the whole area was in fact a plateau. But God told him. The first church building was only 20 feet by 40 feet. Since then, every two years just after mid July, the people go up to the Church Camp to pray. It was later (in the early 1990’s) that they began to build the present church building that would house 1,500 people inside, while 500 people would have to squeeze outside. Pak Musa and Pak Taggal, together with followers worked day and night to build the church building, working from 8 am to 4 pm, and then from 4pm to 6 pm, they built their own houses (which stand today).
The journey from Ba Kelalan to the mountain was a two-day trek. The first night was spent at Lepo Bunga. They carried with them chain saws, nails, hammers, gasoline, zinc roofs, rice, cooking oil and whatever they needed. In those days, the trek was much more difficult than the present one and we could now start from Lepo Bunga. But everyone persevered without complaining. The weather then was extremely cold because the forest trees had not been chopped down by the timber loggers.
Signs and wonders during the worship and prayer sessions. Many suffering from illness were healed. Hallelujah! Every year, an international revival party is held on Mount Murud praying for God to visit again, and the revival will come again. May God excite our hearts and make us cry out; Yes! Father God! May the revival come to the whole earth!
Pursuing Intimacy With God
Your Name
Mathew 6:9 “… Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.”
Our Father in heaven, may Your name be honored over all the earth. How beautiful is Your name; Your name is great! How precious it is to meditate upon all of Your names in the secret place of the Most High. Jehovah-Jireh, You are our Provider. Jehovah-Rohi, You are our Shepherd; You take care of all our needs and we will never lack. Elohim, You are the Creator; Yahweh/YHWH, You are the Great I AM. Almighty God Elyon, let everything that has breath praise You! Jehovah-Shalom, You give us peace. Jehovah-Rapha, You send out Your words and healed us. Who is like You? Jehovah-Shammah, You are with us; oh, God of Emmanuel, Your name is like sweet smelling oil poured forth; how we love You! Jehovah-Nissi, You are our Banner; Your banner over us is love! Jehovah-Tsikenu, You are our Righteousness; let Your Spirit of Righteousness wash away all our filth! Oh, El-Shaddai Almighty God, Adonai our Lord, through the revelation of Your names, help us get to know You more that we may be one with You.
Repentance
Repentance Prayer For Self 03
Leviticus 19:2 Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them, You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy.
Leviticus 20:26 You shall be holy to me, for I the Lord am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.
Abba Father, You perceive my thoughts from afar— nothing is hidden from You in all creation! I confess I am a sinner; I cannot save myself. I was born in iniquity, even while in my mother’s womb. You know I have a willing heart, yet I am often overcome by the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of this life; it is a struggle to be free of the snares of sin.
Abba Father, I have sinned against You greatly! I despise my condition, yet I cannot deliver myself. Have mercy on me— a wretch! You have said, ‘For I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy.’ You’ve also said, ‘You shall be holy to me, for I the Lord am holy and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.’ Yes Lord! Make me holy! Let me be Yours wholly! Cleanse me by the precious blood of Jesus— set me free from all iniquities and unrighteousness. I surrender to You right now; fill me with Your Holy Spirit! Take off my old man and make me new! Set me on fire— burn away all that does not belong to You; cause me to be a vessel holy unto You! I want to be Your delight, created for Your good works! Praise You Lord! In Jesus’ Name, Amen!

Japan
[Country Profile: Japan is an island country located in East Asia. It consists of four large islands of Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, and more than 3,900 small islands. The west is facing the Sea of Japan and the Korean Peninsula across the sea and the east is the Pacific Ocean. Their reliable history began in the sixth century. At that time, Chinese and Koreans migrated to Japan in large numbers. The royal family hired scholars from both places to be teachers. Since then, they have been deeply influenced by Chinese and Korean culture which they have integrated with Japan’s unique national culture to form the present Japanese culture. After the First Sino-Japanese War (in 1894) and the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905), it became one of the world powers. Militarism prevailed. In 1937, it launched a war of aggression against China. After the defeat of the Second World War, it was briefly occupied by the Allied forces. It revised its Constitution at that time,adopting a constitutional monarchy and a house cabinet system. After the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950, received support from the United States, and its economy has grown gradually. It has become one of the advanced G8 countries with a per capita gross national product (GDP) of more than $30,000 US dollars. It is one of the most developed countries with the highest standard of living in the world.
Most of Japan’s population belongs to the Yamato group and the social structure is closely stable with few incidents of violent resistance. There is a complete link between individuals and groups and between different groups (such as employees and companies, enterprises and governments, large enterprises and satellite factories) with tacit cooperation and competition, cooperating yet competing with each other. Everyone knows his own duty and works with a high degree of professionalism. However, currently the declining birthrate, population aging, high youth unemployment, and the increase in the number of undocumented workers have created social problems such as widening gaps between the rich and the poor and causing financial difficulties for the Japanese government. They need to address rising social security costs and labor shortages. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan in 2018, the elderly population over 70 years old reached 20.7%, exceeding 20% for the first time. The elderly over 65 years old also reached a record high of 35.57 million, accounting for 28.1% of the total population, ranking first in the world.The current Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is actively promoting the overall reform of the social security system, such as medical care and pensions, with the goal of building a society that encourages active employment for life.
Spiritual situation: Most Japanese are bound by traditional culture and do not believe in a particular religion, but many religious rituals have been integrated into Japanese culture, such as weddings and funerals. The religious views of many religions coexist with the main features of worldliness and utilitarianism. Shintoism and Buddhism account for 69.61%, emerging religions are 24.43%, Christianity is 1.56%. Muslims are about 126,000 who are mostly foreigners, and Japanese Muslims are less than 10,000. The Christian faith has been introduced to Japan more than 450 years ago. At present, there are about 7,900 churches that are affiliated with more than 150 Christian denominations and the average number of members of each church is 30. The average age of pastors is about 67 years old and 89% of Japanese pastors age over 50 years. About 14% of the churches don’t have pastors. The Church is facing discontinuation, making Japan the second largest population in the world that has little exposure to the gospel. In a way, Japan is “hard soil” to the gospel. ]
2 Chrnicles 7:14 If My people who are called by My name humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and heal their land.
Habakkuk 3:2 O Lord, I have heard of Your renown, and I stand in awe, O Lord, of Your work. In our own time revive it; in our own time make it known; in wrath may you remember mercy.
- Identification Repentant Prayer: We plead guilty in front of you for forgiveness for idolatry among Japanese and for not worshiping You, the only true God. We run after other gods and suffer more and more. Forgive us for our pride and rebellion because You oppose the proud and show favor to the humble. We ask You to forgive our stubbornness. Even in the midst of these constant disasters that have befallen on us in the past few years, we have remained indifferent, had hardened our hearts and refused to humble ourselves before you to confess and repent. Lord, forgive us of all these sins and remove them and help us to turn our hearts to You so that Your peace may come because you are the Prince of Peace.
- Pray for salvation for the Japanese people: May God’s salvation come upon the Japanese people. Shine on them with the Holy Spirit and lead them to repentance. Open the eyes of their hearts to know the holy and righteous Redeemer and the One True God, that they may reject all idols and the bondage of traditional culture and instead, accept the salvation of Christ. Lead Japan into the season of great harvest of souls, the gospel being rooted solidly in Japanese culture and bearing much fruit.
- Pray for government officials: Lord, save the souls of Japanese government officials. Give them the spirit of repentance, soften their hearts, and open their eyes to know the supreme true God. May You raise up Christian political leaders who fear You and trust in You, who seek Your wisdom and strategy, to formulate a policy of fairness and justice, and to properly handle the post-disaster reconstruction work brought about by typhoons, floods and earthquakes and restore social order. In regards to gay marriage and legalization of abortion, help these Christian leaders to stand firm; help them prudently formulate appropriate laws that solidify a healthy family structure so that they may receive the glorious and abundant grace of the Kingdom of God. May these leaders lead Japan into God’s destiny and open the East Gate to welcome the glorious King.
- Pray for the revival of the Church: Lord! Pour the love of the Holy Spirit to the children of God, to awaken their souls so that they may seek God and love one another, that they may hold onto the Word of God, actively preach the gospel, and bear witness to the power of God’s love. May God awaken the Church to align with You and be connected and aligned with one another. May the Church become united to establish a unified prayer altar to cry out day and night for Japan, blocking the breach and shaking such strongholds in the Japanese society as gang violence, eroticism, entertainment culture, material pleasure, patriarchal thinking, etc. Set free the young generation and the elderly from the bundles of confusion, melancholy, suicide. Help them find freedom and peace in the love of Christ. May great revivals come to Japan to fully transform the Japanese society and lead Japan into the calling and destiny of God.
In the victorious name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen

Urgent Prayers for Nations
Pray for the mid-term election, USA
[Current Affairs: This month, five states will hold the primary elections for contested nominations, including Massachusetts, Delaware, Rhode Island, and New York, all of which are Democratic. Along with New Hampshire, we bring forth the four States to God. We pray that God will reign above the election and all the candidates chosen by God will win the primary election to join the 2018 United States election on November 6, 2018. We declare that the bestowal of blessings will be upon every candidate that is chosen by God in each state.]
Editor’s note : On the evening of 8/27, President Trump met with 100 Christian evangelical leaders at the White House National Banquet Hall. He issued the following prophetic warnings and thoughts:
- If the Republican Party loses the majority of the parliament, the left-leaning Democrats will “have no hesitation” to end what the conservatives have done so far. This election may disintegrate all the efforts of the conservatives in the past. The Democratic Party will quickly and as violently as anti-fascists (Antifa) and related groups do, overturn what President Trump has done.
- The level of hatred and the level of anger against President Trump is unbelievable, part of it is because of what he has done for Christians, for himself and for his family.
- The November 6th election is very much a referendum on not only President Trump, but also on Christian faith; it’s a referendum on free speech and the First Amendment.
- Evangelical leaders should mobilize Christians to vote as soon as possible, otherwise they will enter a tormenting period in the next two years, because this election may make us lose all our efforts .
Dr. Lance Wallnau, who once prophesied that President Trump was God’s anointed King Cyrus, made a short speech today ( please click here ), calling on Christians to mobilize and support President Trump. We agree with the warnings issued by President Trump and agree with Dr. Wallnau’s prayers, so we reprint his prayers here and ask everyone to declare and pray together:
Father , we ask You to:
- Raise up right now a new company and give them the zeal of the Lord of Hosts for President Trump, touch their hearts, make them as zealous as You are for President Trump, and mobilize millions to support him.
- Connect us to be like a net, let all the divisions and differences pass through, so that we may capture the harvest, the harvest of votes, the harvest of influence, the harvest of persuasion¸the harvest of spiritual authority。
- Command the angels right now to tear the veil that is over the mind of Americans, that is on the left, and thwart and foil every evil assaults and plans on President Trump.
- Loose the Angels that are going to move in every single congressional district, in every single state, in every battleground state. The battles will shift in the heavenly over those states right now. The footsteps of the believers are going to be thundering and echoing in the corridors of hell,
- Raise the believers right now，those who will not be asleep in the garden, like the disciples, but they will be awaken.
- Raise new leaders，if the leaders do not respond, as You did in American first revolution, how You took ordinary farmers, merchants, bankers and book makers, and put them in positions so they may rewrite the history together。
- Raise new voices, completely new to this game, but honest, earnest and anointed voices that are going to cause a coalition of powers to come together。
- Let the fear of the Lord and the authority of the name of Jesus will be exulted.,Jesus will be made magnificent. We ask You to give signs and wonders. May You stretch out Your hands as you did in the book of Acts, that You will perform the supernatural, in order to assist us, what we can not do without You.
- Extend Your mercy over America, for the sake of Your church, for the sake of Israel, and for the sake of nations who are the sheep nations,
- Let there be a trumpeted warning for the weak churches, that echoes and vibrates in each one of our hearts, that we are now entering a critical season, we must spiritually arm ourselves, and go forth and contend for the right to exist as a people in our own nation, in Jesus Mighty name.
- Give to the listeners of this video, the anointing and zeal, even the confidence and peace and boldness, as they share this; people will be electrifying, that they will catch the importance of the moment and the significant prophetic warnings of this President. May there be a united movement, In the name of Jesus.
Psalm 3:8:“From the Lord comes deliverance.May your blessing be on your people.”
In the name of Jesus, we call out to the intercessors, angels and the armies of God to hedge and surround every gate and wall inside and above the territories of United States.
Abba Father, we pray for the mid-term election on November 11th that will happen before the United States presidential election of 2020. We know that this election is extremely critical. The United States and the nations need such transformation and revival. We declare, when we humble ourselves before You and ask for Your forgiveness, the blood of Jesus will forgive the many sins of the United States. You will reign with justice in the United States and we will stand in Your righteousness, judge the evils and dark powers, and declare that God has a purpose and calling for the United States. ‘There’s no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.’ (Romans 13:1b)
We declare in one spirit that this mid-term election will align with the plans of the Most High God and no army of the enemy will be able to stop them. We oversee all polling stations, equipment, volunteers, and electricity. We prohibit fraud, cheating, software and hardware manipulation, distortion, threats, delays, failures, protests, revenge, confusion, and obscurity.
In the name of Jesus, we cancel all the attacks and curses toward the chosen candidates in the mid-term election. We release a double portion of blessings and favors upon the anointed ones. Before and during the election, the Spirit of the fear of the Lord fills the atmosphere. In Jesus name, the chosen servants of God will win the election, take up their positions, and perform their respective duties. Every one of them will be courageous, spirit-filled, and ready to be used to fulfill the purpose of God that He has for the United States and the nations!
Lord, You are the Savior of United States. May you glorify United States so it will glorify Your name.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
Pray for the Taiwan referendums on 11/24
[Current affairs: LGBT Allies have been promoting the legalization of same-sex marriage in Taiwan, and the Taiwan Church and the Coalition for the Happiness of our Next Generation have also continuously promoted the boycott of the same movement. On May 24, 2017, through the interpretation of the Constitution, Taiwan might become the first nation in Asia to legalize homosexual marriage. Churches in Taiwan continued to confess and repent for Taiwan, asking God for guidance. God has opened the door for them: the government has decided to lower the threshold of the referendum. In response to the legislation legalizing same-sex marriage, the Coalition for the Happiness initiated the following three referendum proposals:
- Do you agree that marriage is defined as one man and one woman?
- Do you agree that homosexual education should not be implemented for underage children in the national education system?
- Do you agree to protect the rights of two people of the same sex to live together without changing the definition of marriage as one man and one woman?
- Pray for the mayor elections of all the counties at the end of the year and ask the Lord to rise up righteous people that fear the Lord into the political circles who resolutely oppose the government’s policy of Islamization and legalization of same-sex marriage. These people will be able to speak boldly and stand with the truth. We take the authority given by God to shut the door to Islam and open the door to the Lord Jesus. We declare that Taiwan will enter the merciful gate of Jesus’ salvation, receiving peace and prosperity.
- Ask God to abolish the same-sex marriage bill: a bill scheduled to be formally implemented next year in Your mercy, turn it around and abolish the bill.
- Bless the production of propaganda: Lord, bless the production of propaganda. Before the 11/24 voting day, the referendum team needs to produce a variety of propaganda materials, pray that the Lord gives wisdom and revelation so that the propaganda, graphic design, literature, network, news each stand and play a great role as a team forming a powerful strategy to continuously put out literature and graphic that will be spread out to the public and will bring more people to support the referendum of love with more than 5 million consent vote on 11/24.
- Keeping the unity of the referendum executive team: Ask the Lord to keep the unity of the referendum executive team, to learn to be humble and trust the Lord, and the co-workers from the churches can gather and minister together. Ask the Lord to give each other love and unity. Also ask the Lord to protect the executive team leaders and to watch over their spirit, soul and body and their family and relatives and give them peace, especially for them to maintain their relationship with the Lord.
- Raise up the pastors and pass on the truth: Please help the shepherds to understand the Father’s intentions in the marriage and family, to pass on the truth and establish the brothers and sisters to build on the truth and let Taiwan enter into the truth of the Lord and not be deceived by the enemy, “You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.” John 8:32.
- More of the people that came out of gay lifestyle will share their testimony: May God continue to raise up more of the people that came out of that lifestyle to give the glorious testimony in this end time generation.
- Raise up prophetic intercession and releasing the prophetic message : the enemy still uses all kinds of opportunities to attack the ministry and leaders. The team really needs prophetic intercession and reminder to always ask the Lord to raise up prophetic intercession so the prophetic message can be released and whatever needs attention. This is a spiritual battle, asking the Lord to help the referendum team and the churches everywhere. ” Because we are not fighting against the flesh, we are fighting against those ruling, rulers, the dark world that governs this, and the spirits of the sky.” Eph. 6:12 .
- Watch over the core members of the referendum and their families : Recently referendum team and the core members of the local community and their families often have accidents and diseases. The enemy is violently attacking the children of God. Watch over the conservative proponents, their families and their properties. Give them peace, watch and protect all the members of referendum executive team in all the cities. May the Lord send the mighty angels to camp around them to protect them and give them strength.
- Let the referendum pass smoothly : Ask God to demolish all the schemes and attacks of the enemy, especially the attacks and rumors through the Internet. May the Lord raise up various resources in the media, news and the Internet to help the children of God in this end time generation know how to use media tools to convey family values, promote the referendum of love, and testify for the Lord. May God use more than 5 million consent votes by referendum to far exceed the votes that is against it so that Taiwan’s marriage can be kept as one man and one woman. Improper sexual education cannot enter the school. The church is changing and will have more Christians to care more about public affairs and may Your kingdom come.

Pray For Israel
Pray for Israel and Jerusalem
Psalm 122:6 “ Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure!”
Isaiah 62:1-2 “ For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her vindication shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch.2 The nations will see your vindication, and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
- Salvation comes to Your people: Abba Father, please remove the veil from the eyes of the Israelites and the spiritual blindness so that Israel will turn back to You (2 Cor. 3:11-16). Cleanse them with clean water, give them a new heart, and place the new spirit in them (Ezekiel 36). Let the Jews call Jesus Christ as Lord and receive salvation and be blessed (Romans 10:12-13).
- Your will be done in Israel: Abba Father, our Father in heaven, show Yourself to Israel as a faithful, eternal, and intimate Father. Let Your holy name be revered in the Holy Land. Let Your kingdom come to this land with holiness and might. Let Your will be done in Israel on earth as it is in heaven. Give Your people their daily bread and spiritual nourishment. Forgive their sins according to Your holy covenant. Lead them not into temptation and deliver them from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the glory forever. (Matthew 6:9-13)
- Security and Protection: Jerusalem is the main target of the enemy. We pray for her safety in all areas. Lord, during the feast season, let all areas of the mass transit be fully protected (Jeremiah 31:10). Protect all entrances and exits of the city and the country (Psalm 121:4). Give security personnel and soldiers heightened sense of awareness of danger (Psalm 144:1). Protect airports and ports from infiltration of dangerous individuals. Let the protection of the Old City of Jerusalem be perfect and flawless during the feast season (Isaiah 31:5).
- Yom Kippur: [Background: The Day of Atonement is on the 10th day of the month of Tishrei in the Jewish calendar, which is September 18, 2018 in the solar calendar. It is also the last day of the Jewish New Year (the days of Awe). In the Bible tradition, the tenth day of awe of the New Year ends with Day of Atonement. The Bible teaches us to cease from routine work on the Day of Atonement, to focus on praying and to reflect. God’s demand for atonement is through repentance and sacrifice. After sunset of Sunday 9/9, the fall feast of Jehovah begin: according to Leviticus 23:23-44, the New Year of Feast of Trumpet [Shofar], Yom Kippur, then Succot. In Leviticus 23:2, the Hebrew word for “feast” is moedi’im, actually means the appointment time to meet. Therefore, God expects His people to meet Him. We pray that the Jews will meet with the Lord during the feast time and receive salvation. (Source: Intercessors for Israel Ministry and Light Of Zion Ministry)]
Prayer:
Revelation of the Feast – Heavenly Father, as the Jews recite prayers and Bible readings during these festivals, Abba Father, may Your words that are alive greatly touch people’s hearts. May You, King of Messiah – Jesus, the divine revelation surprise them and cause them to eagerly seek You, as if seeking for gold.
Your promises: Yom Kippur became a precursor to the Savior’s salvation of Israel. We declare that, in accordance with the promise of the Lord, all of Israel will be saved when the Lord Jesus returns. (Rome 11:26). The Israelites will look up to the one they have pierced, to grieve for him…like weeping for the death of the firstborn. (Zech. 12:10)
Pray for overseas Jews to immigrate to Israel / Aliyah
[Background: Currently, if people with Jewish blood wish to immigrate to Israel, they would first submit an application to the Department of Interior. After that their application will be turned over to the Jewish Agency (the Aliyah Department). This agency would then do further background check including Goggle search for personal files. Some of such effort can result in reports with more than 200 pages. If a person is found to be a Messianic Jew or is affiliated with Christianity, this person’s application will be automatically rejected. Such practice has been criticized and noted by the US State Department’s annual report: Freedom of Religion Report. The report raised concern that this practice is only against Christianity and not against other religions such as Reform Judaism, atheism, Buddhism, Christian Science, or Hinduism. (The above news came from “Jerusalem Post.”)]
Abba Father:
- Overturn Laws against Messianic Jews: We ask You to overturn current Israel immigration policy against Messianic Jews.
- Call Jews around the world to return : call Your people around the world to return to their homeland. Grant them grace to hear Your call. “In that day the Lord will extend his hand yet a second time to recover the remnant that remains of his people, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coast lands of the sea. He will raise a signal for the nations and will assemble the banished of Israel, and gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. (Isaiah 11:11-12)
- Return of Jews in America: We ask You to release millions of Jews in America to return to their homeland. For those in Europe, we ask You to stir their heart for Aliyah in light of rampant anti-Semitism. For those in South Africa, we ask You to stir them up for Aliyah in light of recent political and economics shakings. “By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion. How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?” (Psalm 137: 1, 4)
- Help New Immigrants to integrate: We ask You to strengthen new immigrants with Your joy. Help them learn Hebrew, find a way to support their family and integrate into society.
- Raise up people to help Jews: Raise up people to help Jews from the nations to return to their homeland. “Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and raise my signal to the peoples; and they shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.” (Isaiah 49:22)

[Current affairs: 10/6 Jerusalem Mayor Election, religious Zionists are the focus of this Jerusalem mayor election; in the past years, extreme orthodox always led the elections.

Prayer:
· Pray for a godly new mayor: Heavenly Father, may You watch over the election and rule and reign in the midst. Help the Jewish voters and the Israeli citizens of Jerusalem to have a righteous, compassionate, and a humble heart, including the future mayor. Walk with the mayor and guide the mayor in the decision-making and execution ability, that they may be full of God’s wisdom and blessings. Father God, the new mayor will fear God that the city of Jerusalem will be sanctified and no longer be a place for gay parades. Bless the new mayor to receive God’s salvation and be a vessel to bless the Messianic believers in the Lord.
· Raise the church up to pray for the elections: Abba Father, raise up more local churches to watch and pray for this election. Abba Father, may more people in the city of Jerusalem walk in the light, rejoicing in Your name and may Your righteousness be lifted up. Your glory is the strength of the people of Jerusalem and the shield belongs to the Lord; we declare in the name of the Lord that the mayor of the city of Jerusalem belongs to You. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
