40-Day Fasting Prayer for United State – 1/1/2019-2/9/2019

Dear intercessor,

Through the global 40 day fasting prayers from August 1 to September 9, God has linked us together to establish this global 24/7 prayer wall to pray for the kingdom of God. Thank you for your loyalty and perseverance. Now it has been more than three months. During this period, we have been continuously updating and changing, in order to make this prayer wall more efficient, and with defensive and offensive power. There are quite a few adjustments that have caused inconvenience to you. Thank you for bearing with us. May God honor all of you for your loyalty.

In the 40-day fasting prayer in August, we experienced God’s timely response to our prayers as recorded in the Global 40-Day Fasting Prayer Testimony in August. Although there are still many prayers to be fulfilled, We believe that God is faithful, as stated in 1 John 5:14-15 : “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 ask of him.”

Recently we sensed there will be great shaking in 2019, especially in the United States and several countries of global concern. God is calling intercessor with urgency to enter the global 40-day fasting prayer at the beginning of 2019. We will explain below briefly:

Why another urgent 40 days of fasting and praying?

God’s kingdom is accelerating, and God is raising the standard : After the last 40 days of fasting and praying around the world, we admit that we have relaxed. But God did not stop advancing His kingdom. We felt this 40-day fasting prayer will be used by God to raise up the intercessors, to enter into deeper prayers that can pinpoint urgent and critical issues, and through the 40 days of fasting prayer, our lives will be more refined, so we will gird up our belt, to intercede with authority, and release the power of God.
The critical moment when the world faces an life and death situation :
- Homosexuality sweeps across the globe : When the United States legalized same sex marriage in the Supreme Court in 2015, many Asian countries, including Taiwan, began to follow United States and legalized the same sex marriage through interpretation of constitution by the Supreme Court. Promoting homosexuality has become fashionable trend, and young people are eager to imitate and emulate.
- Islamist forces are trying to make the globe Islamic : like Europe etc. The Libyan president once said: “Allah wants to make Islam a great victory in Europe, no need to use swords and knives, no need to attack the city, we don’t need terrorists, we don’t need suicide bombers, we have more than 50 million Muslims in Europe. It takes only a few decades to turn it into a Muslim continent.
- Islamist forces tried to Islamize United States : In 2005, 24 Islamic organizations met in Chicago, according to their conference proceedings showing how they planned to teach the United States through journalism, political education, and so on. They said: We must prepare for this reality, that is, within 30 years, there will be 50 million Muslims living in the United States.
  - Former US President’s policy of promoting Islamization: After taking office in 2008, he began to promote many Islamization policies at various levels of American society, including allowing Muslim officials to worship five times a day in the White House, teaching Islam in schools at all levels, and even Misleading them to swear to the false gods.
- The plot of “Deep State ” : The “deep state” planned to elect Hillary Clinton as president and continue to complete the Islamization of the United States and promote global Islamization. Through God’s intervention in the 2016 presidential election, coupled with over confidence of the “deep state” and lack of mobilizing comprehensive electoral system, President Trump was elected, blocking the plots of “deep state” to fully control the US :
  - Instigated the removal of President Trump: The Muller investigation attempted to Impeach President Trump .
  - Manipulating the election system : A large number of illegal votes attempt to change the election results.
  - Launching a media attack: Making a lot of fake news to distort the truth, to attack and smear President Trump.
  - Implement various assassination plans against President Trump .
  - Launched a global witches and wizards to curse President Trump and his family.
  - Creating social riots and crises: Trump is the target of their full-scale attack, so they instigated and financed the caravan mob, provoked racial conflict violence, and local shootings to provoke President Trump’s national policy.
  - Challenge and obstruct President Trump’s policy for the next two years : In this midterm election, the Democratic Party thinks it will win in all aspects, with God’s keeping power, giving conservatives an unprecedented advantage in the Senate, and state governors, but God also allowed the Democratic Party to regain control of the House of Representatives. Making President Trump’s policy for the next two years to be greatly challenged and obstructed.

- God is going to shake the United States even more in 2019 : We sense the greater shake of the United States in 2019 , although the liberals are allowed to have short-lived victories in order to unveil the power of darkness, so the roots of evil can be completely rooted out. God is going to cleanse and reform the electoral system through President Trump, to purify and change the entire United States.The anti-Christ forces have been back into the corner and are doing everything to fight back and bring destruction. We need strong and powerful prayers to declare God’s plans and purpose for the United States and the nations, paving the way for the re-election of Trump’s US president in 2020, so that God’s will for the United States and the nations can be achieved.
- Countries around the world are facing various crises, such as :
  - China : Weighing down the policy of tightening the religion and causing persecution of the church.
  - Russia : Hidden attempts to create crisis in various countries and expand their control over the world.
  - Israel : The government is facing early re-election and social unrest; there are foreign garrisons in the south and the big countries in the north waiting for opportunities to attack through countries such as Syria and Lebanon; overseas anti-Semitic forces and unfair treatment by the United Nations.
  - The United Nations: Controlled by Muslim countries on many levels, resisting & hostile toward the state of Israel, promoting abortion, homosexuality, Islamization and other global agendas.
  - Middle East: Conflicts between Shiite countries such as Iran and Sunni Arab countries have intensified; Christians have been persecuted.
  - Taiwan : Facing the crisis of legalization of same sex marriage and Islamization of the society.
  - Canada : Cannabis is legalized and Christians are suppressed everywhere.

Breaking through the chaos of the current situation: Now there are international crisis that are interlocking with one another, which requires a greater breakthrough.
Fasting and prayed will bring down another level of breakthrough: Any breakthrough and elevation, requires prayer and fasting In order to cleanse our souls and body, to enhance our vision and to align with God in a greater way.
The transformation of the United States will bring about the transformation of the nations: we believe that God has called the United States to be a “city on the hill, the light of the world”, a missionary country. President Trump is the key to the transformation of America. He is very much in need of our prayers at this critical moment so that God’s will can be done in the United States and the nations.

When do we start?

The 40-day fasting prayer will start from 1/1/2019 to 2/9/2019 to usher in the new year. As for the way to fast, please refer to the fasting prayer guide and pray for how you will fast individually.

The 40-day fasting prayer will be different from the August in the following:
1) Prayer direction and focus: Pray deeper for the United States, Israel and other countries of global concern.
2) Prayer update: Update every few days.

This is the call of Esther, as the time when Israel was facing threat of destruction of entire tribe! The trumpet has sound. Rise up warriors of intercession, “For such a time as this “, let us stand on the wall of prayer, cry out to God day and night, to bring about a breakthrough, to begin the glorious 2019!

Sincerely,

the Global 24/7 Prayer Wall Editor

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 injecteing 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.

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.

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.

[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.

Repentance

Repentance Prayer For Church 03

(Secularization of the Church)

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. (1 John 2:15-16 (NKJV))
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; (1 Peter 3:15 (NKJV))

Lord, we are grateful for your salvation on the cross that you saved us from the darkness to God’s Kingdom of light. Thank you for cleansing all our sins and unrighteousness with the blood of the Lamb, making us your holy vessels, clothing us with the robes of priesthood, and leading us into eternal life!

(If you did not commit the following sins, you can skip this part)

Lord, please forgive us our love for the world and the things of the world. There is no true love for the Father in us. We draw near you with our mouths, honor you with our lips but have removed our hearts far from you. We are not mindful of what you care. Instead, we are lured by selfish desires, pursuing the vanity of the world such as power, wealth, pleasure, and indulgence. In us are found partiality, self-centeredness, self-righteousness, indifference, carelessness, fear of men but no fear for God. We have deviated from the Truth, being of no difference from secular people. We plead for your mercy and forgiveness.

Lord, cleanse us, cover us, deliver us, and renew us by your blood. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we renounce the desires of the flesh and all sins and bondage. Holy Spirit, refresh our hunger for God’s Word, empower us to live the divine virtues, and release Kingdom values in us. Help us to be obedient to the Holy Spirit, to grow spiritually in love for the Lord and for one another, and to take up our cross to follow Jesus. When the world sees the power of the gospel, they will believe also, and give praise and glory to God!

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

Pursuing Intimacy With God

Highway of Holiness

1 Peter 1:16 “for it is written: ‘Be holy, because I am holy.’”
Isaiah 35:8 “And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.”

Abba Father, hide me in the shadow of Your wings! Oh, in Your embrace, there is peace and tranquility; in Your presence, all noises are being silenced, all uneasiness disappears, and sorrow and sighs flee. Father, I long to be with You in Your dwelling place and always be in Your presence. I set my heart to obey You and follow Your ways; oh, Father of holiness and glory, I want to be holy because You are holy! Father, cleanse me and wash away all filth and stain; renew me and remove all unholy passion and flesh. Oh, let me walk on the highway of holiness which leads to Your holy dwelling place. Oh, Your redeeming grace causes me to leap for joy. Father, because of Your redemption, the eyes of the blind will be opened, the ears of the deaf will be unstopped, oh, the lame will leap like a deer, and the tongue of the mute will sing and rejoice. There will be water in the wilderness and streams in the desert. Father, there will be a highway called the Way of Holiness for the redeemed to walk on, where the unclean can not tread on it. Oh Father, this is what I desire: lead me to walk on the highway of holiness with You!

We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen.

Pray For Israel

The Blessings of Hanukkah

Hanukkah (the Festival of Light), also known as the Feast of Dedication, is from 12/3 to 12/10 of 2018 (the 25th day of Kislev to the 2nd day of Tevet in the Jewish calendar.) This is the season the Jewish people commemorate the re-dedication of the temple after it was desecrated; it is therefore called the “Feast of Dedication.” The lighting of the menorah is to remind people of the miracle of oil: during the re-dedication, when there was only enough oil to last a day, it lasted 8 days. Therefore, the festival is also known as the “Festival of Light”. The focus of the celebration is to light candles and let there be light everywhere.

The blessings of Hanukkah (Festival of Dedication) are:

God is the protector of His people! We thank God during this period for He protects Israel and will never slumber or sleep.
God is the restorer of His temple! We thank God for we are His temple! He is restoring His church and He will also restore the entire family of Israel!
God is a miracle-working God. We thank God for He is a loving God who works in great power. Oh Israel, this is the time to expect miracles in your life!
Jesus is the light of the world! Hanukkah is the time to let His light of life shine in all the world!

John 8:12 “When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

【Prayer】

We pray that during the season of Hanukkah, the true light of God will illuminate the entire family of Israel and light up the hearts of His people. Let them receive the true light of joy and enter into the kingdom of God’s love! We bless Israel to have a happy Hanukkah!

Pray for Israel – A Fundamental Solution for the Conflict in Gaza

【News Update: On 11/14, Defense Minister Lieberman resigned in response to the ceasefire, although his decision had political considerations. The coalition government is now very fragile. Netanyahu is not only the prime minister but also serves as foreign minister; now he assumes the position of defense minister. Netanyahu said on 11/18 that when the country’s security is threatened, “a forced new election would be irresponsible… the security of the nation is beyond politics.” In response to his critics, he pointed out that the public could not know all the details of his plans (for security reasons.) Netanyahu assured the public that he will try his best to maintain the ruling coalition and avoid the collapse of the government. After Lieberman resigned, Netanyahu, temporarily serves as the defense minister, refused Education Minister Naftali Bennett’s earlier threat to leave the coalition if he was not named defense minister. Bennett subsequently announced on the 19th that he will not seek the position of defense minister: “we are removing at this moment all of our political demands and will help in the huge mission of making Israel win again.” Bennett’s far-right party will remain in the coalition. Netanyahu’s pressure to accept early parliamentary election was temporarily lifted. 】(The election was originally scheduled for November 2019.)

Dear Abba Father, May You reign in Israel; keep the Israeli government, military, police, and the people united and unwavering. We pray especially for Prime Minister Netanyahu.

We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!

Pray for Peace on the Israeli and Lebanese Border

【Current Events: For Israel, although Gaza is a constant problem with dispute and controversy, the real danger is in the North, because Hezbollah* in Lebanon is constantly strengthening its work along the Israel-Lebanese border. The Israel Defense Force stated on 10/23 that the sixth observation post was recently discovered on the Lebanese border. These observation posts belong to the “Green Without Borders” civil organization, but they are used by Hezbollah for military purposes. The IDF believes that they move the posts along the border to collect military intelligence, and may also take the opportunity to create conflicts to trigger war with Israel! Please pray against the plots of Hezbollah and pray for peace on the border with Lebanon. 】 (Source: Bridges for Peace / Kingdom Revival Times)

*Hezbollah is a Shia Islamic political and military organization established by Lebanon in 1982 with the help of Iran. It is currently the largest political party in Lebanon.

Psalm 25:15 “My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare.”
Psalm 33:8-10 “Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the people of the world revere him. For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm. The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.”

【Prayer】

Dear Abba Father, we petition the throne of grace for peace on the Israel-Lebanese border. We ask You to protect Israel with You mighty arms. Let Israel’s eyes look to You for help, because You are able to release their feet from any snare – You are able to neutralize any Lebanese military plan and strategy against Israel. Give Israeli leaders wisdom and anointing to secure border safety and let the Spirit of God guide all their decisions. We ask for peace between Israel and Lebanon and let there be no war. May nations witness the might of the God of Israel, who “spoke, and it came to be; who commanded, and it stood firm.” Let them see the glory of Your majesty and stand in awe of You and surrender their hearts to You.

We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!

Urgent Prayers for Nations

Ukraine and Russia Tension at the Sea of Azov (Black Sea)

John 16:33 ‘I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have troubles and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.’
John 14:27 ‘I am leaving you a gift – peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give, the world cannot give. So don’t be trouble or afraid.’
Micah 2:1 ‘What sorrow awaits you who lie awake at night, thinking up evil plans. You rise at dawn and hurry to carry them out, simply because you have the power to do so.’
Exodus 18:21 ‘But select from all the people some capable, honest men who fear God and hate bribes. Appoint them as leaders over groups of one thousand, one hundred, fifty and ten.’

On 11/25/2018, two Ukrainian navy artillery boats and a tugboat were transiting from Odessa via the Black Sea to Mariupol located in the Sea of Azov. A 17-hours conflict was reported: ‘Russia opened fire on three Ukrainian vessels in the Kerch Strait near the Russia-occupied Crimean peninsula on late Sunday 11/25/2018. 6 Ukrainian soldiers were injured with 2 severely wounded, 2 Ukrainian artillery boats and 1 tug boat were siege and detained by Russia.’

Here’s a look at the conflict, its roots and possible consequences:

For a few weeks now, military escalation: Tension has been rising in the Kerch Strait, which links the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea. Shortly after Ukraine detained a fishing vessel traveling from Crimea in March, Russia increased its military presence in the area and started inspecting all vessels traveling to or from Ukrainian ports, causing days-long delays and disrupting trade. Ukraine has protested the checks, calling them an ‘economic blockade.’

Global Impact: The fishing boat seizure has promoted global concern and raised questions about eventual international intervention. NATO and U.N. Security Council are holding emergency meetings to discuss solutions. For 4 years, Ukraine has disobeyed the old pragmatism that if you share a border with a powerful dictator, you’d behave with extreme caution. Today, Ukraine President filed action with United Nation Security Council for protection. As a result, Martial law landlocked of uncorrelated cause of action was in effect.

Today, Russia is condemned for ‘aggression’ for wounded 6 Ukrainian soldiers if ever this could be avoided. Now, this conflict implicated a foreshadow of coming escalating upheaval. The world is undoubtedly surrounded by wars, rumors of wars, troubles and turmoil, but Jesus has spoken of solutions, ‘I have overcome the world (and thereof)’ (John 16:33). ‘My Peace is not like the world’s peace.’ (John 14:27). Jesus, the true Peace, has overcome them all.

Pray:

Father, we submit the rooted tension and problem between Russia and Ukraine to Your Council, to the Throne of Mercy for their desperate need for peace and protection. We stand with Russia and Ukraine to ask for forgiveness for violence and rage, pride and falsehood against each other, please forgive their transgressions to making them right in Your Eyes, and through which to truly know You and the Power of the Holy Spirit.
We submit all wicked motives, ambitions, schemes, operation in falsehood and global agendas. We pray for all assignment be destroyed and struck down in the powerful Name of Jesus.
Father, we submit United Nations, global community, NATO, including America, will depart and have no part in planting evil, in orchestration, manipulation, and false accusation, will not stand and shed any innocent blood, derived from righteousness until truth and peace come through to the end for Russia and Ukraine. (Micah 2:1)
Father, we pray to instill peace for Russia, Ukraine, Syria, and nations around them near and far, that as they will ask and find peace and rest. We pray to dissolving wars and killing tried to rise up in their lands; we pray to call Prayer Warriors in their and from other lands to pray at the gates of entry, Lord, summon the generals to their posts, release them with weapons and strategies for the battle.
Father, release President Vladimir Putin to take stance with his calling of godliness and justice, strong and courageous in obedience to Your Way and Truth.
Father, we pray for upcoming Ukraine Election would be sanctified, and protected from fraud and global manipulation that a godly President and leaders will come in. (Exodus 18:21)

In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Updates on Caravan Migrants

Acts 28:5 ‘But Paul shook off the snake into the fire and was unharmed.’
Nehemiah 8:10b..’This is a sacred day before our Lord, Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.’
Proverbs 22:21 ‘Evil people will surely be punished, but the children of the godly will go free.’
Psalm 91:9-12’If you make the lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For He will order His Angels to protect your wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’

[Event: By November 22, 2018, 5000+ migrants had made their way into Tijuana, Mexico, located directly across from San Diego. On November 25, Sunday, over 500 migrants violently forcing border entries and attacked U.S. Border Police, Patrol and Military with glass bottles and rocks, crushing down border fences to cutting down some newly installed bob-wires along the fences. Military retaliated with tear-gas that finally took control of the people. Two days later on Tuesday, Mexico deported 105 migrants who instigated the riots. Most people in the caravans are Non-Asylum-seeking single men, some are already returning home, some finally accepted asylum from Mexico, all due to blockage by U.S. retaliation at the border which had contradicted with what they were told back home about opening of migration.

Mexico has offered Asylum to all migrants, for those who have accepted, received immediate employment and housing. According to Mexico and U.S. intelligence, within the current caravans, there are 600+ convicted criminals, including many MS-13 gang members. Additionally, Drug Cartels, human and child traffickers, kidnappers, sexual exploitations, some migrants are being paid for making each successful entry point into Mexico. Many migrants grabbed children disguised as family for special status. Hence, women and children are used as human shield and propagandas for the Medias, in all happenings, is the reflection of the Europe’s migration flood.

On November 27 morning, another 2000+ new and aggressive caravans made its way into Mexico, presumably advancing towards San Diego. They will add fuel and escalated aggression to the existing caravans to challenge and overwhelm the U.S. borders’ stability. President Trump and the Homeland Security have discussed possible closing all the borders, if necessary, which will impact the economy for both Mexico and the U.S. negatively.

The Cost of Immigration System: Currently, there are 784,000 illegal migrants waiting at tent cities at various locations for illegal immigrants process, Asylum included, which will take years for the court system to complete. Meantime, these illegal migrants are under health, medical cares, housing and food, etc. In 2017, 38,000 migrants were granted asylum status. An average of 10 terrorists daily are caught breaking through the U.S. borders and were deported.

Expiring Senate Bill for Walls – Walls for All Borders vs. Open Borders : The quest of budget passage for 5 Billion Border Walls must seek approval at Senates by December 7, 2018. If not passed, begins 2019, House Representatives (new Majority Democrat. Dem. 232, Rep. 199) will enter debate and likely disregard border protection and security issues, continue to support Open Borders policies, and citizenships for all illegal migrants – thus to kill the Bill so it’ll never reach the Senates floor. President Trump has insisted a possible government shutdown if Border Walls funding is denied on 12/7/2018.

Reality of Illegal migration: ‘Migration Flood’ is no longer a theory after face-off the recent caravans, despite the mainstream Media false reports and cover-ups, at the end, the truth of ‘Borders Flood’ speaks loud and clear. ]

[Prayer]

Father, we submit the Global agendas enforcing UN laws and controls aimed to demolish our sovereignty, national security, stability and immigration infrastructure. We rebuke the spirits of disorder and violence against our borders, command them locked up by Angelic Host.
Father, thank you for some have changed of hearts, decided returning home, and some staying in Mexico pursuing the ‘better life’ legally. May they find You in prosperity and faith in all the days ahead.
Father, release the Angelic Armies to survey and cease all assaults, rage, violence and bloodshed in the lands. Protect the innocents from evil, and punish the conspirators, instigators, criminals, planners until the end. We pray to bless miracle workers, peace-makers and those called to serve in the midst of chaos.
Father, we pray for protection, and separation at every entry point, for Mexico to execute lawful rules to guard their borders successfully, in good will and in order. Mexico Leaders will be wise to rule righteously.
Father, we submit our intercession to the War Room in Heaven, release to us the strategies and armory for combat, with Angelic Host ahead affirming our posts. We shall see Your Sword through our speaking, destroying the enemies’ plans and schemes completely to the end.
Father, grant great peace around ours and Mexico’s borders patrols, ICE, Military, Coast Guards, Nation Guards, Police per Psalm 91 without ceasing. In Jesus’ Name (Psa.91:9-12)

Muslims account for 88.3% of the total population, 10.5% of Hindus, and the rest are mainly Buddhists, Christians and ordinary people. Bangladesh is one of the most populous populations in the world and yet one of the least developed countries in the world. Bangladesh belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate. Because the rivers are spread throughout, transport by rivers are well developed, and the rainy season is extremely prone to flooding. Tropical hurricanes often occur.

Spiritual condition: Since independence in 1971, Bangladesh has been mired in the vicious circle of violent political struggle. Over the years, Bangladesh has maintained the dual status of secular and Islamic countries in accordance with the Constitution. I addition to the riots of Islamic militants, and the Christian community as a minority is simultaneously threatened by radical Muslims and authorities. But what is encouraging is that the percentage of Christian is growing rapidly in Muslim-based Bangladesh.

According to a report in the Christian Daily newspaper on March 16, 2017: “Many Muslims believed in Jesus! Most of them live in rural areas. Every day more people are converted to be saved, even if they are persecuted, we continue to spread the Good news of Jesus Christ. Although the Christian population still accounts for a very small number of people, Bangladeshi Christians have great confidence that the Muslim country, the fourth largest Muslim country, will eventually become a Christian country. “There is no mercy, no compassion, especially no love in Islam. It can’t bring us anything. However, Christianity gives us the assurance of eternal life, and it brings real hope.” A convert admitted that he rather give up vested benefits and become Christians. “The next generation is turning back to God and becoming Christians! We believe that Bangladesh will become a Christian country in the future.”]

For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. (Habakkuk 2:14)

Oh God! We pray that the wind and rain of the Holy Spirit will come greater than before, and righteous and peace will be established for the local people.

Co-labor with God and be the fisher of men.
Pray for the Church of Bangladesh: Raise up the Church of Bangladesh, give them fire of prayer, and together to build a prayer altar of unity, for God to lead them to fight for Bangladesh, demolish the stronghold of the enemy that hinder the Bangladeshi people from knowing God, so that the gospel can be spread throughout Various ethnic groups in Bangladesh, and transform the entire nation of Bangladesh!
Pray for the government of Bangladesh: God, save the souls of Bangladeshi government officials, so they will receive salvation, give them wisdom to govern Bangladesh, and turn Bangladesh from a goat country to a sheep country.
Pray for Bangladesh President Abdul Hamid: Dear heavenly Father, You are a God who does not display favoritism, may Your love come upon Bangladesh president Abdul Hamid. May Your Holy Spirit work in him, expand his heart and perception that he may align with your purposes and ways, to govern Bangladeshi with justice and righteousness. That he may be kind to the Buddhists and Christians in his nation who are of different faith to him. Lord, you have granted supernatural revelations to many Muslims previously, you have called them to be reconciled with You through dreams and visions, to be close to You.

Bhutan

“Background: Bhutan is located on the southern slope of the eastern section of Himalaya between China and India. In Seventh century BC, the Tibetan king Srongtsen Gampo introduced Buddhism into Bhutan and established many temples, from which Buddhism played an important role in Bhutan, and many political and legal aspects infiltrated Buddhist ideas.

Bhutan, with a population of 700,000, has as many as 75% Buddhists and 24% of Hindus, with a Christian proportion of only 1.8%. In theory, Bhutan allows its citizens to practice other religions, such as Christianity, but those who choose to practice another religion are treated unfairly by the state, local governments and their communities. The Government and the people believe that Bhutanese should be Buddhists, and those who believe in other faiths may lose their citizenship and government benefits, including free education, health care, and even electricity and water resources.

As a result of the increase in the number of refugees from India and Nepal, the Government of Bhutan had enacted immigration laws to restrict the influx of refugees, thus also deepening the sense of racism and hatred between the two communities, leading to violence and protests. Bhutan has a population of nearly million people, but only hundreds of Christians. So far, no Christian congregation has been able to build church buildings, and there are no recognized Christian organizations in the country.

Bhutan is one of the least evangelized countries, and Christians within its borders are also affected by discrimination, harassment and even physical violence. Topography, Bhutan has a lot of thunderstorms, so Bhutan calls itself “Thunder Dragon King”, they also considered themselves the descendants of the dragon, on their nation flag, Chinese white Dragon represented dragon god, the yellow symbol diagonal across represented the King’s authority, the orange symbol below represented the pious faith of the lama religion.】

Therefore tell the people: This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘Return to me,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘and I will return to you,’ says the Lord Almighty.Zechariah 1:3

See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are seven eyes[a] on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,’ says the Lord Almighty, ‘and I will remove the sin of this land in a single day.Zechariah 3:9

Prayer of Identification: We come before You to confess and repent for Bhutan for idolatry, and not worship the only true God. We replace You with other gods, so the suffering increases, and please forgive our pride and rebellion, because You resist the proud and give grace to the humble. Please forgive our sin of stubbornness, harden-heartedness. Lord, please forgive us of all these sins, remove all our unrighteousness, so we can turn back to You, so peace will come to Bhutan.
Pray for the Bhutanese people for salvation: May God’s salvation come to the people of Bhutan, give them the Holy Spirit to enlighten them to repent, and open the eyes of their hearts to know You are the Holy righteous Redeemer and the One True God, rejecting all idols and traditions. The bondage of culture, to accept the salvation of Christ, leading Bhutan into the season of great harvest, so that the gospel is rooted and grounded in the culture of Bhutan. In the name of the Lord, bless the people of this land. When the people in the dark meet the great light, they will enter the wonderful virtues of light. The true light released the people living in the temples of this place to receive true freedom, because of their godliness, compassion came, like the way Cornelius met Jesus.
Pray for the revival of the Bhutanese church: Lord! Let the love of the Holy Spirit pour greatly upon the children of God, to awaken their souls, to seek God passionately and love one another, and steadfastly keep the Word of God, to aggressively proclaim the gospel, and to witness the manifestation of power.and the love of God. Rise up the church to align with God, connect and align with each other, and work together to establish a unity prayer altar, to cry out for Bhutan, to stand in the gap and shake Bhutan through the power of day and night prayer; break the stronghold of the society, to find freedom and peace in the love of Christ, bringing the revival to Bhutan, transforming Bhutanese society and leading Bhutan into the calling and destiny of God. Give the church the power to bear witness and open the door to evangelism. God, please watch and keep Christian in Bhutan, to be steadfast in their faith, despite being severely abused and harassed. God, please forgive the injustices of infringing on the human rights of Nepal and Bhutan, and to replace these unjust acts with the love and compassion of Christ. May more Christian rescue workers that are called to go can receive their visa. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of Bhutan, Wangchuck, will receive the salvation of Jesus. Amen!
Pray for the political and social situation: Bhutan is one of the few countries in the world that had heard the least of the gospel. The government’s strong isolationism has fueled the clampdown of Tantric Buddhism. Pray for a true spiritual release on this “Dragon land.” We pray that the government has the wisdom and righteousness to grant peace and freedom to all races within Bhutan. God. please forgive Bhutan for violating the human rights of Nepalese refugees and Bhutan, to cleanse their sins, and to transform them to replace these unrighteous acts with the Love and mercy of Christ.
Pray for Bhutanese government officials: Lord, Save the souls of Bhutanese government officials, give them the spirit of repentance, soften their hearts, open their eyes, and know You are the Almighty true God. Also for King Wangchuk to receive prayer of salvation. To rise up the Christian political leader that fear You and love You, to seek and trust in You, to formulate policies and appropriate laws that are righteous and fair, to consolidate healthy family structures, to receive the glorious and rich grace of the Kingdom of God, and to lead Bhutan into God’s destiny.

In the victorious name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Protect their identities from being exposed until the evil political leaders are brought to justice.

Turn the heart of the Father to the children, and the hearts of the children to the father.
Restore family relationships: Ask God to help each family to prioritize matters in the family. First to turn to God, to confess and repent for pursuing material life, for neglecting parent-child relationships, helping each family to re-establish the relationships between husband and wife and parents and children, connecting together in love. Let there be love among family members. Let them respect and honor each other, learn to communicate, understand, encourage and support each other. Create a safe and respected environment in the family.
Establish a prayer altar: Ask God to give parents wisdom, establish a prayer altar, lead the whole family together to worship and pray together to seek God, and let the children know how to seek and trust in God, to walk on the path that God has prepared for them and enter into their destinies.
Be a channel for the Gospel: Bless every family of God, live out the traditional Godly family value, to enjoy the overflowing grace of the Lord, to be a wonderful testimony that can draw the non-believing family to turn their hearts toward God, receiving the abundant grace.
