【The kingdom of heaven operates by exchange】
Chuck says the kingdom of heaven does not work out of necessity. It is important for us to remember this. Many times we have commented on observations, and this week I observed something and thought, “Oh, Lord, the need and the responsibility that exists are overwhelming.” And the Lord had to remind me that the kingdom of heaven works in exchange. He gives. He gave His life in exchange for ours. He gives so that we may multiply. So we will go beyond. So when you seek God, how does His Word work, and I read this verse in Proverbs this morning, “He who gives away more increases, and he who saves excessively brings poverty“ ( Proverbs 11:24 ). I really like the New Living version of the translation. “Give freely, get richer. Be stingy and lose everything.“ And really, he gave his best .
Special Editorial Section: Interview with Chuck Pierce: Going Up Higher
Info : Dutch Sheets & Chuck Pierce Date: September 2022 Original: GH15 Source : Fifteen Minutes to Him
Editor’s Note : Dutch Sheets and Chuck Pierce have been walking together in the prayer movement for 25-30 years. It began as a prayer ministry/movement led by intercessors and people who were called to pray (intercessors), and now it has moved into more of an apostolic movement. Now it’s apostolic intercession. This article is an excerpt of their retrospective and outlook.
【Chuck sharing】
I realized that we have co-labored throughout the world and especially across this nation together for 33 years – of course, you’re getting much older than I. We have a long history together. I’d like to share that we are watching God bring a new authority to His people. I believe your ministry has been such a key in that. I believe you serve apostolically for what God wants to do in the nation right now. Dutch, I listen to you first when I pray for this nation. We have moved from the prayer ministry as we began, now into an apostolic watchman ministry. I believe we are watching over the words that have been spoken through the years. We are interceding; a watchman is a prophet who intercedes. I really believe that we have come into a new apostolic realm, even a new authority. Dutch, I believe it’s not a hierarchy thing. I see all of our gifts functioning at a greater level. I believe we are on the verge of seeing our nation coming into an awakening. You have been such a leader in that.

Info : Ricci Johnson-Wilson Date: September 12, 2022 Original: “World for Jesus”
The past two-and-a-half years have been some of the most difficult the world has seen in decades. As intercessors, we press into God to keep nations stable during times of great shaking. Very few can carry the call of an intercessor for an extended season, but you, you have been faithful, and for that, we are deeply grateful. God is strengthening and preparing the intercessors for the days ahead!
Editorial Special Section: Beni Johnson: Communion with God – Intercession in the Third Heaven
Info : Beni Johnson
Editor’s Note: Bethel Church is a charismatic megachurch located in Redding, California. The author Beni John, is the wife of the pastor of Bethel Church, Bill Johnson. She passed away in July this year. Beni Johnson was a well-known intercession leader. This is her sharing of her life message on intercession.
Psalm 86:11-12 is a beautiful verse, and the Passion Bible says:
Teach me more, so that I may know how you work and how you operate; so that I may go on in your truth until everything that is in me may honor your name. God, I want to thank You with all my heart and all my enthusiasm! I will always, always and forever, give glory to You and Your name.
Editorial Special Section: Dutch Sheets: “I AM government.”
Message : Dutch Sheets Date: September 14, 2022 Original: GH15 Source : Give Him Fifteen Minutes
In every election cycle, I am accused by some of being too political. I’m used to it. In reality, I have chosen not to affiliate with either political party, to ensure and demonstrate that I am calling for prayer without a political bias or motivation. (I freely admit to a biblical bias.) Much of the negativity toward involvement in government is that people don’t distinguish between government and politics, especially the political spirit.

I really like the New Living version of the translation. “Give freely, get richer. Be stingy and lose everything.“ And really, he gave his best .
【I am extending the calling of your gifts】
Norma Urrabazo said, “I had this strange dream yesterday morning, and what I find interesting is that I was awake but fell asleep again, and fell into a deep sleep. In my dreams, I am here, meeting here. I just walked in and the party was about to start. When I looked around and saw that the seats were all set, but the floor was mud, I somehow felt as if we were all sitting outside. I was standing in the front row and noticed garbage around the seat. So I started picking up litter, and there were a few small pieces of litter under Chuck’s chair, so I walked over and started cleaning up. Then Chuck came in and he saw me and looked around and noticed there was trash in there and he said, “Now go get Penny and the team to help clean it up, but you’re going to clean up the front area”. Then he came on stage, and almost immediately, Penny and the team were there, all helping and carrying garbage bags.
Pam was there too. I noticed she had a cardboard box and had been pulling weeds in the same area because we were all stepping on the dirt. Then I looked around the chairs and saw that there were so many people that I had to add more rows of chairs, and there were even so many chairs that there was nowhere to walk, as if there were chairs all around us. So Chuck came off the stage, and he said, “You have to clear the space here. This has to be cleared so that people can move through.” Suddenly, a man in uniform walked in, and Chuck looked at me and said, “I’ll deal with that, you’ll deal with this.”
It feels like I’m watching a news report on the TV screen after a while. “The Global Spheres Center closed unexpectedly,” said the reporter, “and had to stop because the party was so crowded. Chuck said, ‘Everyone, come back later.’ So they had another party later, with so many people coming, every Everyone could only stand.” And then on the camera, I saw they were showing this huge place that was packed with people. Like a camera, it goes over the crowd and you can see how the Holy Spirit is working there. People are filled with the Holy Spirit. Some were struck down by the power of the Holy Spirit, and some fell to their knees. I watch from the screen and I know this is a new place, but the elements of the place are still the same. The floor was laid, the podium was bigger, and I saw some of the same familiar faces. I saw Elaine sitting in front, the place was full of energy, and I woke up. I ask the Lord, what is going on here? The Lord told me, ” In this season of divine recovery, you will be victorious. Don’t let yourself be distracted by little things or any garbage from the past .”
I really feel like I represent everyone here and everyone watching online. I feel that the word God has given us is about the present, and it is also about the future we are moving into. ” Everything in the past will be taken care of. Even now, I have a plan of action. So when you see confrontation arise, remember that I am there. I am your faith, trust me. I’ve dealt with it. No weapon formed, forged, raised, shaped against you can stand against you. Stay the course and keep going. I’ll cause this flip and let everyone around you know it’s mine. Take action. I will save many souls by turning those who seek to harm you into good for you. I am in this recovery and I will prove myself right. I am your reward, I am your inheritance, And it will be bigger, deeper, wider than you have ever seen, so that you know it was I who did it, ” said the Lord. ” You’ll recover, you’ll recover, you’ll get double, and the Holy Spirit will come and fill you to an overflowing, great expansion that’s coming to you that you can’t understand or comprehend, ” the Lord said.
Chuck said, wow. Now let’s stand up again. Let me use this to prophesy. The Lord said, ” I am breaking new ground and I am expanding your borders, so be ready. You will be given new places and new tasks. I will know where to send you in the future because I am expanding things. And make room for your gift. Be ready, your gift will be called. Sometimes called to the front. It will be called into exactly the rubble, so be ready. I Expanding what needs to be expanded. I tell you to be ready, because I’m going to bring a lot of people in and they’re going to start looking for your help, and you’re going to say, ‘Let’s just come and worship.’ You won’t say, ‘Let’s go to church’. You’ll say, ‘Let’s worship and let the land prosper’. I tell you, I’m taking you beyond church thinking, and I’ll make you settle in your new place …so get ready, things are about to change for you,” the Lord said.
【Enter your refined glory】
Susan Shaulis said that in the dream I had, Chuck and I were shopping at the supermarket and we were talking about the Bible and revelation. It’s an interesting process. The supermarket we went to was like Ikea, only one floor, but full of upscale, very, very unique and sophisticated items. We walked in and saw counters everywhere and these counter staff were very professional and decently dressed, not what you would normally see when you go to a supermarket. Chuck took a cart, and as he pushed it in front of me, I saw some old groceries inside. The point is that there is a cup in the cart, which used to hold the wine, and is now empty. Your knee-jerk reaction is that we should push that cart back into place, but there’s a counter on the left, and there’s a woman there, and she looks very refined, and you can tell there’s something different about her. So we pushed the cart over there and she started taking all the old stuff out of the cart. You can tell they are supplies from a celebration. Chuck and I were both evaluating and observing what she brought out as she took it out. When everything was out, all of a sudden, that shopping cart took on a completely different look. That cart showed a sheen. When we start shopping, the first place we stop to shop is this counter. I’ve seen it in my dreams over the years, and it’s beautiful. You can tell every counter has delicious food and drinks from all over the world. When we walked to this counter, it was wine. We can only give it a perfect score of 100%. That’s exactly how delicate and delicious they are. After that, we went shopping.
Now, when God gives revelations like this, he’s going to release something to all of us here and watching online, to help us take control of what the future will have, Chuck said. So I’m going to start, and I hope we can take what He has to say. I say to you , “I am bringing you new containers. I am bringing you new places to carry what I have in store for you in the future. I will use some that have been used, but when you push them into When it’s new, I’ll make those things new too,” said the Lord . ” I will remove even the way you celebrated in the past so that I can take you to a new level of celebration in the future. I will also send people to serve you in ways you have not been served. I said , pay attention to the service you receive, because you may become a servant,” the Lord said. ” In the midst of this, you will begin to purify the future of many. I say to you, a new revelation is coming to you, a new outpouring is coming to you, if you come to taste and see the good, not Desire to drink what you have drunk in the past, and then you will see a transformation in your body,” said the Lord . ” For as you go, tasting and seeing what I have in store for you will rejuvenate cells that have never been rejuvenated. I say, go forward and step into where I have called you, and you will How to thrive in those places and be amazed by being ministered. You will be amazed how your cart, your supply, and what you allow to be your storage center will change. Don’t be afraid to push into the future, because if you will , you will find yourself celebrating in a way that causes goodness and love to follow you .”
Keevy Phillips said the Lord said, “I’m sending you to the poor in spirit, because many look decent in appearance, many look rich, but I’m sending you to be rich in spirit but rich in spirit where the poor are “. The Lord said, “When you go into where the poor in spirit are, I want you to open that bottle of wine that is 100% full of My Spirit, serve them, and pour out My Holy Spirit among them. Don’t be afraid of the so-called elites. , because they are spiritually poor, and I want to revive them just like I want to revive everyone else. Don’t be afraid of the 1% right now, because the 1% can change the whole group . ” The Lord said, “Go to the poor in spirit to whom I send you. Look beyond the facade, look into their spirit, and pour out the new wine I have prepared for them.”
Michelle Hadley said, I also heard the Lord saying, He said, “I’m going to give you a new spirit of wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence so that when you talk to the elite 1 percent, things start to change, some ideas, some of their workings, and even unraveling mysteries for them so they can keep going in the future.”
LeAnn Squier said, the Lord said, “Because you have submitted to the real purification, because you have been purified, because you have given 100%”, the Lord said, “You are fully equipped, you are in the armor, You’re dressed, you’re ready to go into those places.” The Lord said, “This thing is coming true. This is the refinement of all refinements. This is the 100% of all the 100%.” So the Lord said, “Don’t be afraid, just walk in the clothes you wear now; for you have walked like this, you have been so obedient, even in the hard times of the past few years.” The Lord said, “Time and time again I lead you through the alchemist’s fire. And you through the chain.”
Chuck said, “The cart I chose had a variety of containers in it from what we’ve been through in the past. Sometimes we have to drink things to the scum, however, the Lord has put someone out there to take it all to a whole new level for you. We’ve all been through certain circumstances, and God is making all things work, bringing it to a whole new dimension of your life. Many of you have been through hard, difficult, severe things. However, this is part of the glory you will walk in in the future.
Brian Kooiman said Chuck received a text from Andrea saying, “What I’ve heard from Susan’s cart dream is that the skills of the ancient traditions of the past are being advanced and will be used in a modern way. Refined. It will return a hundredfold .”
Susan Shaulis said it was amazing because as I stood there I heard the Lord say that the time to shop in poverty is over . This is not God’s will. Many of us come to Him, or we go to the supermarket, we have a poor mentality, and the Lord says, “I’m getting my people to never agree with this generous, multiplying, fruitful man. completely saved from the mentality of God.”
【Don’t scratch it no matter how itchy】
Chuck said something else happened to me this Friday morning. I am getting ready to see the Lord. The Holy Spirit spoke to me three times, and only one sentence was beyond my expectations. I don’t even know what to tell you. He said, ” No matter how itchy, don’t scratch. No matter how itchy, don’t scratch. No matter how itchy, don’t scratch .” This shocked me a bit. I really don’t know what he’s talking about. And as I sought Him and began to understand, Brian passed me two articles. One thing about itching is that it is a sign of healing, or a sign of resistance. If you scratch your skin when it’s itchy, as you know, you’ve hurt yourself and it’s healing, and your scratching will do more damage to yourself. But we all have this instinct to scratch at what is being healed.
Now I’m going to say what it really means. Whatever the pain, whatever is being healed. Because we feel it, we all have a natural outburst of desire to help it. Another thing that means is that when you are confused, you scratch your head. There’s a saying, “I just scratched my head about this thing” (note: it means “I’m confused about this thing”). What God is really saying is, “I don’t expect you to understand everything. You’re trying to understand it all. When you’re trying so hard to understand your situation or what’s around you, you’re spending too much. time, and you are confused too. So no matter how itchy it is, don’t scratch it .” Another layer of meaning is, ” I’m doing some work on you, but you’ve always wanted to help me. You’re also trying to help other people I’m working on. However, I call on you when I need you. If I don’t do that, then you don’t touch it .”
Now, as we head into the new year, this is the word God has to give us: If I need you, then I will call you. I know exactly where you are. I know when I will need your help to heal a situation. I know when you will be needed to help understand peace, but don’t keep your hand on it until I need you, because when you try to help the condition heal, you are making it worse Oops.
Now, Father, I say, we’re going into a new realm where we’re letting go.

Special Editorial Section: Interview with Chuck Pierce: Going Up Higher
Info : Dutch Sheets & Chuck Pierce Date: September 2022 Original: GH15 Source : Fifteen Minutes to Him
Editor’s Note : Dutch Sheets and Chuck Pierce have been walking together in the prayer movement for 25-30 years. It began as a prayer ministry/movement led by intercessors and people who were called to pray (intercessors), and now it has moved into more of an apostolic movement. Now it’s apostolic intercession. This article is an excerpt of their retrospective and outlook.
【Chuck sharing】
I realized that we have co-labored throughout the world and especially across this nation together for 33 years – of course, you’re getting much older than I. We have a long history together. I’d like to share that we are watching God bring a new authority to His people. I believe your ministry has been such a key in that. I believe you serve apostolically for what God wants to do in the nation right now. Dutch, I listen to you first when I pray for this nation. We have moved from the prayer ministry as we began, now into an apostolic watchman ministry. I believe we are watching over the words that have been spoken through the years. We are interceding; a watchman is a prophet who intercedes. I really believe that we have come into a new apostolic realm, even a new authority. Dutch, I believe it’s not a hierarchy thing. I see all of our gifts functioning at a greater level. I believe we are on the verge of seeing our nation coming into an awakening. You have been such a leader in that.
“We are heading into a year that is so, so important for us to understand. We are in a season where the voice (what we listen to) is very important. I remember when we used to only pray. Now we also decree and declare, and when we decree a thing, we see it begin to happen. I believe our authority is increasing. It is a picture of this whole historical era we are in right now. We shifted in September 2019, at Rosh Hashanah. Of course, all of you remember March 2020, when God pulled us all aside and said, ‘I need a divine pause to get My people moving in a new way.’ And I believe we are now moving into this in this new way. I thank God for ministries such as yours that keep us doing just that.
“But I believe this year ahead is going to be our supernatural year. When I look at Scripture regarding the year ahead, we all need to know that we are coming into a supernatural confrontation. We don’t need to think humanistically, and humanistic religion can wear you down. We need to know that we are coming into a time when it is not just about right versus left, male versus female, culture versus race, but kingdom versus kingdom. We are moving into a supernatural dimension. We have to ask Holy Spirit for a new level of the baptism of His Spirit so we can see beyond, and maneuver with His angelic help as we go into this spiritual war ahead. This whole era of 10 years is about war, and you’ll remember I’ve written several books regarding what God showed me in 1986 of where we would be in 2026. I consider this year a key transitional year for us in the spirit realm, and that is very important. With that, I see that when it comes to kingdom versus kingdom, it also becomes government versus government. We will see the ruling demons behind those governments or the ruling force of the Spirit of God behind government. That summarizes what we’re talking about – the government of God has matured (the Ekklesia), and I believe we now have the backing of angelic hosts.
“Dutch, when we were speaking together last time, I saw how God was circling this nation with those angelic hosts. It’s a year of divine recovery. When you look at it in Hebrew, it is a rising up together. We are coming into a new unity in the body of Christ. We are understanding each other’s gifts, rising up together. We must understand how to open up and recover the fortunes that have been taken from us and open up new supply lines.”
【Sharing by Dutch】
“Chuck, that’s incredible, and I believe that. My mind is going in different directions as I listen, and I believe every bit of what you’re saying. I appreciate your insights so much. One of the things I think of almost every time we are together is how God uses the prophetic and apostolic anointings together, and how important it is for us all to listen and hear. Some think of it as being mystical, but it’s becoming as it should be, normal in the supernatural and in the natural – to realize we can receive impressions from the Lord – He actually speaks to us. So when we pray, we desire to say what He is saying. In the higher level of intercession, as far as its scope and realm of authority and warfare we deal with, we know we are praying according to the times and seasons He has us in. We know that if we pray according to His will, He hears us (1 John 5:14-15). There’s no point in making decrees if we are just decreeing what we want – no reason to make declarations just because we are fired up or excited; we have to know what He is saying. So it seems to me that the prophetic is also going to a higher level. You’ve said before that when we are in service together and when I’m speaking, it awakens the anointing in you prophetically, but when you speak, it awakens the anointing in me – it’s the agreement in the spirit, the coming together of what God does when He mingles these anointings. He takes them to a new level! And I think that happens not only for people who have corporate leadership, but also in prayer meetings and intercession groups – the more we come into agreement at a heart level, our anointings mingle, our authority increases, and God does just what He says. I love what you said – that as we work together in unity, we bring out the anointings and gifts of God in each other.”
[Chuck’s answer]
“See – you just described where we are headed. In the last season, we thought we could do unity. Well, that’s not unity. I think you and I are a great example of unity. I submit to your apostolic gift as well as your teaching gift. We are all learning to submit to the gifts, learning to submit to the highest anointing in the room or in the meeting, or in a strategic gathering where we are dialoguing over how to advance. Submission means we are standing under. I stand under your gift when I’m there with you. But we are also resisting. Resisting means we are standing against. If we didn’t have an alignment of our giftings, I personally could not resist the enemy at the level that I do. But because of submitting to God’s order of giftings, we gain great resistance, and then the devil has to flee.
“I believe it’s been one of the problems we have not understood, and the Lord says this, “No greater faith have I seen in all of Israel than those who understand authority” (Matthew 8:10). The centurion soldier understood authority. But faith works by love, and I believe as we start to walk in unity, we will love and honor each other’s gifts in a way we haven’t done before. True unity will give us a power we hadn’t had before. We must have it in this supernatural season that we are in.”
[Dutch’s response]
“When I minister at your church, I have no explanation for what I experience. I know I step under a prophetic portal there, and it’s a mingling of our gifts. I move into such a stronger prophetic anointing in my delivery of the message God has given me when I’m at Glory of Zion. There are 2-3 other places where I also sense this, but nowhere at the level of it happening as at GOZ. But it’s an example of what you just said. I bring myself under that authority that you walk in prophetically, and it opens something up in me. We pray, decree, and resist the enemy, and things start breaking open. It’s remarkable. It’s exciting to hear you say that God is going to do this at new levels. When I honor more leaders – my brothers and sisters in Christ and bless them – the more God opens things up for me. It’s just a spiritual principle, and there’s no way to get around it.”
【Chuck sharing】
“That’s what David did. Samuel anointed him, but it wasn’t until years later, when Ziglag happened – which you teach on – that he recovered everything. David honored those who helped him get to the place where he was. When he did that, and he gave to all of those people, the next level of anointing came. Then 7 years later, the next level came.
“We are in the process – people get ready – we are about to get our next level of anointing, and it’s going to bring us into a supernatural realm where we can take territory, where we can increase and move forward. One day, I’d love for us to talk about the spiritual warfare that’s going to happen at a new level this year. When I say that, I’m referring to the victory end of how we are going to walk in spiritual warfare and overcome the things we have dealt with.
“Dutch, I prayed for you today regarding when you addressed the spirit of Baal so many years ago. But this year, we are going to be dissecting Baal’s throne. See, you had to address it in one season, and we have to now mobilize and dissect that throne. It’s not just divorcing ourselves from Baal (for more on this, see GH15 July 22 2021 and GH15 July 23, 2021). We have to dissect how Baal is ruling in a territory, and that is going to be so key as we approach this year and move into things. You are going to get revelation like you’ve never gotten before, and I’m now prophesying that to you. You’re going to go back to things you’ve decreed and dissect them, getting strategy for the assignment this year. We will have supernatural, angelic help in it. Dutch, when we were speaking recently at the gathering in Charleston, one of the greatest strongholds in America where the civil war began, we realized things happened there that tried to set this nation on a wrong course. God is going to begin dissecting things like this, and reversing them. And we are going to see divine recovery and a new path of supply begin to be opened.”
【Chuck’s Prayer】
“Father, I thank You for everyone who is hearing these words and giving a portion of their best to You, Lord, on this Give Him 15 – they are giving a portion of their lives.
“I decree right now, that as they listen today, they will have a new supernatural opening of their gifts within them. I decree a new alignment of the gifts within them. I decree that we will see what we have prophesied in the past will manifest, and we will begin to see it moving into place and materializing before our very eyes. I say faith will become sight this year. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

Special Editorial Section: Ricci Johnson-Wilson: The Revolution that Births a Nation (Part D)
Info : Ricci Johnson-Wilson Date: September 12, 2022 Original: “World for Jesus”
The past two-and-a-half years have been some of the most difficult the world has seen in decades. As intercessors, we press into God to keep nations stable during times of great shaking. Very few can carry the call of an intercessor for an extended season, but you, you have been faithful, and for that, we are deeply grateful. God is strengthening and preparing the intercessors for the days ahead!
I’ve had several questions about the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and the installation of her son, the following is what the Lord revealed to me.
The Lord said that “2023 would be the year of Revolution.” This word was not just for America, this was a word for the nations of the earth. The key areas the Lord addressed with me were Government, Church, and Finance.
The Queen’s seventy-year reign was completed with grace. Seventy is symbolic in and of itself, referring to completion of an era. During her lengthy reign, I believe she sought to carry the weight of her position as Queen with dignity. Billy Graham said the Queen understood that she was anointed to carry that crown and as such, she felt a responsibility to God to represent Him to her people. This is rare.
With the Crown now passing to King Charles III, however, the monarchy will not only take on a new face, but it will certainly take on a very progressive and globalist agenda that will seek to influence those in their charge in greater measure than ever before. King Charles III will be driven to pursue the path of the globalists.
This is going to take concentrated intercession on behalf of the intercessors to divert the Commonwealth States from this path.
That said, the Revolution began in the United Kingdom last week with the installation of a new Prime Minister followed only two days later by the death of the Queen and installation of King Charles III.
As I prayed over the transition of power from the Queen to the King, I pulled up a map of the member states of the Commonwealth and saw a mighty earthquake occur throughout, effectively dividing the 56 Commonwealth States into smaller, independent Nations. In the coming months, we will likely see a shift of many of those realms under the Commonwealth with some even pulling away from and seeking greater independence in the days ahead.
Friends, this encompasses 25-30% of the world’s population, it is clear, this will have a vast impact on humanity so it’s very important that we keep this situation covered. Let us pray for those who are ready, to rise up in independence as sovereign nations, rather than crumbling under the pressures to conform to the globalists. This will help to slow the agenda of the elite.
We know that the process of revolution is difficult, but when prayed through and done in accordance with the will of God, it produces something beautiful in the earth. When the Israelites left Egypt and arrived at the Red Sea, God brought down their enemies under the weight of the sea. When they arrived at Mt. Sinai, their new form of government was established, and it was one that would enable them to be free from captivity and usher them into a true worship of their Creator.
America was born out of Reformation that birthed the Revolution. When the Reformation began under Martin Luther, it was a catalyst that set-in motion the birth of America. The Revolution solidified and established us as one nation, under God. A nation based on moral principles and Godly foundations that we are fighting to restore today—and it will be restored!
The Commonwealth States that embrace this opportunity, may just find themselves in the midst of a beautiful opportunity wherein, God delivers them from a bondage they didn’t even realize they were in. Revolution is difficult, but it’s a beautiful thing when done under the provocation of our Lord.
Pray for our brothers and sisters overseas and around the world. Revolution is difficult, but the outcome is powerful, it births nations and sets the captives free!
Blessings & love,
Ricci Johnson-Wilson

Editorial Special Section: Beni Johnson: Communion with God – Intercession in the Third Heaven
Info : Beni Johnson
Editor’s Note: Bethel Church is a charismatic megachurch located in Redding, California. The author Beni John, is the wife of the pastor of Bethel Church, Bill Johnson. She passed away in July this year. Beni Johnson was a well-known intercession leader. This is her sharing of her life message on intercession.
Psalm 86:11-12 is a beautiful verse, and the Passion Bible says:
Teach me more, so that I may know how you work and how you operate; so that I may go on in your truth until everything that is in me may honor your name. God, I want to thank You with all my heart and all my enthusiasm! I will always, always and forever, give glory to You and Your name.
The first half of this passage: “Teach me more, how Thou works and how Thou works” , is something we learn in secret. There, you realize how God works, how He works; then, He will send you out.
When we were in Redding CA for the first two weeks, I invited people to share with us their dreams and visions from that time, and it turned out that all they shared was negative information. Of course, if you live in California, you can easily receive these kinds of images, such as earthquakes, even monsters, etc.; all negative reception. So, two weeks later, I said to the Lord, “ Lord, there seems to be something wrong here. Where have all the positive things gone? Why is everyone receiving negative things? I really want to hear some positive things. Ah. “ That’s when Brother Bob Jones (we all call him Papa Bob) happened to be having a meeting in Albany, Oregon, and we went to hear him and Bobby Conner and shared by Brother Larry Randolph.
During the meeting, Bob Jones said, “ I need to meet all the prophetic intercessors and intercessors because I have something to tell you. “ We went into a room and he told Us: “Many of you can see and feel in the realm of the first and second heaven, and you pray in that realm. Now you need to stop because you are not praying in the realm of the third heaven.“
Today I want to talk to you about the third, second and first heaven. These three areas are covered in more detail in my book Happy Intercessors.
First Heaven: The visible material world .
The first heaven is the physical realm that we can see.
Revelation 21:1 : “I saw a new heaven and a new earth. For the former heaven and earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.” The “previous heaven and earth” here is the realm of the first heaven. Deuteronomy 10:14 : ” Behold, the heavens and the heavens above, and the earth and all that is on it belong to the LORD your God.” This verse also describes the physical world, the things we can see and touch. field. When you turn on the TV and listen to a series of events being reported in the news broadcast, it’s all in the realm of the first heaven.
One morning I went for a walk at The McConnell Foundation. It’s really a great place for walking and exercising, the scenery is very beautiful. The Iraq war had just broken out; it was always on my mind and urged me to pray about it. So I asked the Lord, “ Lord, how do You want me to pray this week? “ And the Lord said to me, “ I want you to pray that their communication system will crash. “ I said, “ Okay. “ Begin to pray that the Lord will crash their communication system and throw the war front into chaos. When I got home from my walk, I turned on the TV and listened to the news. The first news that entered my ears was: The Iraqi Minister of Communications has been arrested! It’s true, I’m not kidding you guys. I exclaimed with joy, “ This is amazing! Lord, crush it! “
The key to this experience is that I first asked the Lord, “ How should I pray? “
The Second Heaven: The realm where devils and angels fight
The second heaven is the realm where demons and angels fight and is called the “ mid -heaven “ .
Revelation 14:6: “I saw another angel flying in the air, and there was an everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation, kindred, tongue and people. In this verse, the Chinese translation reads “ The concept of ” air ” is the “ middle heaven “ . In addition, we know that Daniel chapter 10 records that Daniel fasted and prayed before God in order to seek to understand the future. After he prayed for 21 days, the angel of God came to him, because this angel encountered the obstruction of the Persian prince in the second heaven and fought with him there for a long time.
The second heaven is the spiritual world. Many of you may be able to see the spirit world; if you can’t, you can certainly perceive it. God will allow us to see the first and second heavens so that we can pray. He will open up prayer strategies to us.
The Third Heaven: The Realm Full of God’s Glory
The third heaven is the realm filled with the beauty of God.
A few years ago one of our students came to me excitedly and said, “ I finally understand! I know how to enter the third heaven! It’s through worship! “ Today, when they worship together, they are bringing us together into that glorious realm, where heaven is. I think everyone probably felt it; I did feel it. Every experience in heaven excites me because there is so much excitement and so much joy there.
2 Corinthians 12:2: “I know a man in Christ who was caught up to the third heaven fourteen years ago. Inside, I don’t know. Outside, I don’t know. Yes. Only God knows…he was caught up to Paradise and heard secret words that no man should speak. Has this experience ever happened in your life? Have you been to that place full of glory? You can’t describe it at all; how you feel there is so incredible that you can’t put it into words at all. That’s it, it’s completely “unspeakable”, and the beauty is indescribable! This is the incomparably beautiful third heaven that God desires to lead us into.
Ephesians 2:6: “He also raised us up with Christ Jesus, and seated us together in heaven.“ So we pray in heaven. We are not praying in the realm of the first and second heavens. We’ll get some information in these two areas; then, we’re going to come into God’s presence in worship to discover what he’s doing and what he’s saying.
I can’t remember what year it was. I was sitting in the hallway in the backyard one day and I was talking to the Lord and I asked him, “ God, what are You doing? “ Things happen because of those negative things in the world, those situations that are full of tension. I asked the Lord, “ Lord, what are You doing? “ That’s when I heard the Lord say, “ It’s all in My hands; but it’s still going to be crazier. “
Since then, this sentence has become my daily encouragement – “ Everything is in My hands. “ Whenever I feel the external situation weighs me down, I will remind myself: God is in control! Everything is in His hands!
Remember, God is not sitting in heaven biting His fingernails, not knowing what will happen next. He knows exactly what is going to happen; He has a plan for everything and a solution. However, He is waiting for us to come and walk with Him! Do you want to?
I can’t help but say: Oh! OMG! Prayer can be so much fun when you connect with the third heaven! Because there, your prayers can bring heaven down into a world that desperately needs God!

Editorial Special Section: Dutch Sheets: “I AM government.”
Message : Dutch Sheets Date: September 14, 2022 Original: GH15 Source : Give Him Fifteen Minutes
In every election cycle, I am accused by some of being too political. I’m used to it. In reality, I have chosen not to affiliate with either political party, to ensure and demonstrate that I am calling for prayer without a political bias or motivation. (I freely admit to a biblical bias.) Much of the negativity toward involvement in government is that people don’t distinguish between government and politics, especially the political spirit.
I realize government and politics are inseparable twins, but they ARE different. I, too, dislike the political spirit that manifests in the governmental process, though I realize in today’s world, this is unavoidable. Though I am turned off by this spirit, I am very energized by the concept and function of government, as is God. I’ve said many times, God is not political, but He is governmental. In fact, God IS government. Isaiah 33:22 tells us He is our Lawgiver, our Judge, and our King. He is also the Lord and Ruler over the earth, all governmental terms.
I was quite taken aback when Holy Spirit first spoke to me, “I AM government.” As I pondered the above verse and this statement, I realized the entire account of Scripture is about government and authority, dealing with the question of who will rule the earth. Will it be Jesus, the Creator; or will it be satan, the usurper? God will win. His biggest challenge in this battle, however, is that His plan of governing earth is to accomplish it through people. Whether it be government in a home, city, or nation, this is the plan.
To properly understand His heart in this, we must realize that God’s governing authority is not intended to be controlling and dictatorial, but nurture, train, and instruct. He is love, and He is a good Father. As such, He desires to release His oversight through a loving, caring, and covering relationship. Jesus, Creator and Lord over all the earth, wept over Jerusalem, saying He wanted to protect and nurture them as a mother hen does her chicks under her protective wings (Luke 13:34). In Luke 19:44, He used the term “bishop” or “overseer” (episkope) to describe this relationship. Jesus always governs through loving, serving, instructing, and disciplining, not through dictatorial commands. Obviously, this covering and nurturing aspect of God‘s authority does not negate His right to command, insist, or judge rebellion, just as being a loving parent doesn’t. It simply places these activities in the proper context of protection, care, and training, rather than tyrannical control. Whether in the home, a city, state, or nation, God intends for His delegated authority to provide covering, protection, instruction, justice, peace, and more.
Satan is a deceiver, however, and tells us God‘s government is oppressive. He sold this lie to Eve, telling her that partaking of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil would make her “like God” (Genesis 3:5). He distorted the Father’s heart, implying that “God is holding out on you, suppressing you, keeping you from deserved pleasure and full potential.” Satanic lies still convince people God’s governmental heart is oppressive, cruel, legalistic, and seeks to deprive us.
When Eve heard that the tree was “desirable” to make her wise, the word used was chamad. Noted Hebrew and Greek scholar, Spiros Zodhiates, says the word means “ungoverned desires.”(1) What an eye-opening revelation! This is also the word for covet. Since the Fall, our human will and nature are prone to reject God’s principles and guidelines for life, refusing to be governed by His boundaries and ways – wanting to do our own thing. This propensity leads to rebellion, suffering, and evil. When unchecked, as it is in America, this rebellion moves further and further into “ungoverned desires.” Ultimately, it ends in depravity: murder, hate, slavery, abuse, rape, sexual perversion, covenant breaking, abortion, oppression, self-centeredness, fatherlessness, lust for power and control (dictatorships, tyranny, etc.), and many other perversions. This self-centeredness is what leads to a political spirit, which is really a self-centered lust for power. This defiles God‘s plan for righteous government. It is cruel and evil, depraved enough to kill Jesus!
And here is part of the ensuing tragedy: Because satan and fallen humans abuse the process, many Christians (including leaders) ignore the process, believing the lie that “God isn’t interested in government – it is carnal, evil, and corrupt.” This is a classic example of “throwing the baby out with the bathwater.” By default, it allows satan and the abusers to abuse government even more!
God told us satan is very cunning. In fact, this was the first thing stated about him in Scripture: “Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast…” (Genesis 3:1). He has worked his craftiness and sold Christians the lie that we should stay out of government, thereby removing one of God’s primary, most significant channels for delivering His life, blessings, and justice into the earth. This allows satan and those without the biblical worldview our nation was founded on to fill the void. Our ignorance and consequent avoidance of government are empowering satan to destroy us! (Hosea 4:6) We are feeding the beast, and it is getting stronger.
The anti-Christ and anti-Bible abusers of government in America now feel they have the right to:
- kill babies and make us pay for it
- sell the aborted babies’ body parts
- leave them to die on the abortion table when the process doesn’t work well (and celebrate these evil, reprehensible laws with cheering and lit-up buildings)
- reject God’s definition of marriage and define it themselves
- mock the Creator who called us “male and female” (Genesis 1:27)
- take ownership of our children and their bodies
- open our borders
- promote socialism
- rewrite our history, steal our roots and redefine our Constitution
- lie to us at will
- remove our free speech
- and much more.
These abominations are being carried out by our government. If these issues are not spiritual, and therefore, the church’s responsibility to address, I’m not sure what is. I’m not espousing a physical overthrow of our government; in America, we have the incredible right to change our government at the ballot box. To ignore this right is irresponsible and incredibly destructive. Clean the baby – don’t throw it out! Clear weeds from the path, and open the debris-filled channel. Recover God’s plan – don’t abandon it!
For Christians to separate God and the Bible from government is not only unscriptural, it is also illogical and irresponsible. Refusing to make a stand from our pulpits on these and other important issues is as unbiblical as it is devastating. Neglecting our responsibility to declare truth, to ignore our freedom to speak up and act literally empowers the evils of our day.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German pastor, anti-Nazi dissident, and author of The Cost of Discipleship, poignantly stated, “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak, is to speak. Not to act, is to act.”(2) The great reformer Martin Luther King said, “To ignore evil is to become an accomplice to it.”(3) These warnings are as appropriate and applicable to the church of America today as they were at any time in history. We are now being weighed in the balances, and our decisions will tip the scales one way or the other. The church must reclaim her voice once again.
Only about half of Americans claiming to be evangelical Christians are registered to vote, and many who are registered don’t bother to do so. Most statistics make it clear that evangelicals could turn any national election in America if we all voted, and did so based on biblical values rather than party lines or personality preferences. Tomorrow, I will introduce you to a simple plan that helps us reverse this.
Pray with me:
Father, we have surrendered much sacred ground in America. Our ignorance has caused us to abandon the old path and lose focus of Your ways. You have called us to be Your voice on the earth. Help us to regain this voice, as we love and serve our fellow humans.
We ask You to break the deception off of the church that says government is evil, unclean, and something to be avoided. That it defiles our worship and teaching gatherings to talk about moral and biblical issues. While we shy away from this, others indoctrinate our children, shape our laws, and determine our national direction.
Truth makes us free. Give boldness to Your people to speak truth – to do so in love, yes, but to do so. We ask You to break fear off the church. Break lethargy and complacency off of the church. Awaken us to the fire and passion You need us to embody. We ask for this in Christ’s name. Amen.
Our decree:
We decree that the church of Jesus Christ will regain its voice, trumpeting the gospel of the Kingdom.

Repentance Special Section: Repentance Prayer of the Week
(9/19)Day 23, Elul 23 – The Forgiven Much Will Love Much
【Read】 Luke 7:36-50
【Devotion】
Through her tears, humility, affection, and offering, the sinful woman showed that she loved Yeshua (Jesus) much and was forgiven much. We have all been forgiven much. Let us all love Him much.
【Prayer】
Father, my sins are greater than a debt of 500 denarii and I had nothing with which to repay. Yet, You freely forgave me. Help me to love You very much because You have forgiven me much. May I humble myself and sorrow over my sins as the woman did in Luke 7. Help me to realize the greatness of Your mercy and forgiveness, love You affectionately with all of my heart, and offer up my “alabaster jar,” the best of all that I have, to You.

(9/20)Day 24, Elul 24 – Dying Daily
【Read】John 21:15-19
【Devotion】
Before this passage, Simon Peter declared that he was ready to follow Yeshua (Jesus) to prison and to death (Luke 22:31-34). However, when asked by the servant girl and soldiers around the fire, Peter didn’t dare to admit that he even knew Jesus.
Giving your life for the Lord isn’t limited to being willing to die physically when held at gunpoint for your faith. It is also a daily dying – dying to our desires, pride, and concerns about our reputation, and letting Him live through our thoughts, words, and interactions with other people.
Simon Peter repented, and at the end, he gave his life for God in both ways – dying daily to himself and following Jesus even to death. In Acts, we see him dying daily – witnessing boldly for Yeshua (Jesus) whenever he could despite intense persecution. Then, many years later, by tradition, Peter also gave his physical life for God and died as a martyr.
【Prayer】
Lord, I am ready to follow You both to prison and to death. Forgive me, Lord, for times when I, like Peter, was concerned about my reputation or followed my own desires instead of doing what is right in Your sight. Help me also, dear Savior, to die to myself daily and choose to follow You in every little decision of my life. May You live through each of my thoughts, words, and daily interactions with others.
Pray and lay your life before God through this song, “Father I adore You”

(9/21)Day 25, Elul 25- No More Questioning
【Read】 Job 42:1-6
【Devotion】
Like Job, have you ever questioned why God does the things that He does? We may not always understand why God does what He does, but we can always trust that our loving Father will always make everything work for good for those who love Him.
Like Job, let us repent and no longer question God and His doing.
【Prayer】
Lord, as Job acknowledged, “I know that You can do everything and that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You” (Job 42:2). Forgive me for the times when I trusted in my own knowledge and thought that I knew better than You. Forgive me for questioning You and uttering things I didn’t understand, things too wonderful for me. Today, I repent. I trust that You are a loving Father and that You will always make everything work for good for those who love You

(9/22)Day 26, Elul 26 – Praying for your Persecutors
【Read】 Job 42:7-16
【Devotion】
The second part of Job’s repentance and restoration was praying for the very men who accused him of sin and persecuted him with their words when he was suffering innocently.
Are there people in your life who have hurt you deeply, like Job’s friends? Even if you were innocent like Job, pray for those people. If you have held any grudges against them, repent before God. He alone is the Judge and He will judge righteously.
【Prayer】
Father, I pray for _____________ (names of people) who have wronged me and hurt me. Father, forgive them. They, too, are people that You have made in Your image, people that You love and desire to save. Surround them with Your love and peace. Please open their eyes to know Your truth. If they have suffered loss because of their sins, may they repent and may You restore their losses and shower them with Your blessings.

(9/23)Day 27, Elul 27 – No More Running Away
【Read】 Jonah 2:1-10 and pray as you read.
【Devotion】
Like Jonah, have you run away from God? Has God called you to do something, but you kept putting it off because you didn’t want to do it?
Let us no longer run away from the Lord. Let us return to God and obey Him.
【Prayer】
Lord God, please forgive me for the times when I’ve run away from doing things that You called me to do. Thank You, God, for still being patient with me and hearing my prayers. Help me to learn my lesson and obey You willingly and wholeheartedly.

(9/24)Day 28, Elul 28 – God Gives Second Chances
【Read】 Jonah 3:1-10
【Devotion】
God is a God of second chances. Jonah was given a second chance to preach to Nineveh after he disobeyed the first time. The city of Nineveh’s wicked deeds deserve God’s judgment, but God gave them a second chance and 40 days to repent.
In Exodus, immediately after the first 40 days Moses fasted and received the tablets from God on Mt. Sinai, the Israelites broke their covenant with God by worshiping the golden calf. Then, Moses pleaded for God’s mercy and God gave Israel a second chance. Again, Moses went up to Mt. Sinai and fasted 40 days, and the covenant that was broken was restored. By tradition, the second set of 40 days are the very same 40 days we are praying and repenting right now.
Today, thank God for giving you this second chance to repent and return to Him. May we also give second chances to others and be merciful as our Father is merciful.
【Prayer】
O merciful Father, thank You for being a God of second chances. Please, give me a humble and repentant heart, like the Ninevites in Jonah 3. May I learn from their example of repentance. Like Jonah, who learned to be merciful and give the Ninevites a second chance, help me to be merciful to others and give others a second chance to repent.

(9/25)Day 29, Elul 29 – Having Humble Hearts
【Read】 2 Kings 22:11-20, 2 Kings 23:25
【Devotion】
When he heard the words of God’s Torah, King Josiah could have made excuses. His father Amon was an idol worshiper and his grandfather Manesseh committed more sins than even the evil Amorites that God had cast out before Israel. Based on his background, this also could have been his first time hearing these words of God.
However, instead of complaining about his family history, Josiah tore his clothes, wept over his nation’s sins, and humbled himself before God. God had mercy on Josiah and blessed him with a peaceful burial. He was the last God-fearing king of Judah.
When we hear or read God’s Word, may we be convicted and may we have tender, humble hearts like Josiah’s.
【Prayer】
Dear Heavenly Father, please help me to have a humble heart like Josiah. Please forgive me for the times when I’ve read or heard Your Word and made excuses. Help me to be convicted by Your Word and align my life with Your ways. Please change my heart and make it humble and tender, like Josiah’s.

Pray for America: Reflections on the Kansas Abortion Referendum
Editor’s Note : This article is excerpted from the August 23 post of Dutch Sheets’ “Give Him 15 Minutes”
【Current affairs background: On August 2, Kansas, USA held a meeting on “Value Them Both ” ( the editor prayed for this week’s prayer (8/1), please click here for details ) A referendum on whether to guarantee abortion rights was voted 59% to 41% in favor of abortion rights. Anti-abortion groups immediately demanded a vote check. After the re-check, the votes for ” against ” abortion dropped by 87 votes and the votes for ” for” abortion increased by six, still unable to change the result of the referendum.
Questions to ponder
This referendum is indicative and is the first since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade case in June. Kansas is a conservative indicator in the United States. If anti-abortion opinions are weak here, what about other places? Here are some questions to ponder:
- Why do most Americans vote for abortion, even in a conservative state?
- America is a predominantly Christian country. Who is influencing and shaping people’s minds?
- Where is the church’s influence on homosexuality?
- We turn on the TV, the news media, who is influencing our thoughts?
- Are we hearing the voice of truth or the never ending sound of freedom that is human-centered?
- When our children walk into school, who is instilling their mind?
- What are the religious tendencies of their teachers?
- Who is spreading the idea that LTBT has become a campus fad?
- The progress of human freedom?
- People that hold opposite views considered to be old-fashioned?
- Who dares to speak to them the voice of truth without fear of being offended, isolated, or persecuted?
- Where is the light of the church?
The average American church rarely preaches on sensitive social issues. Truth cannot be heard by people, so it is influenced by society, the media, lies, and people’s voices. Day by day, just like Lot gradually moved his tent getting closer and closer to Sodom and Gomorrah.
We can’t help but wonder: who voted in the referendum? How many Christians who understand the truth went to vote? Does the Church know about this referendum? Does the church care enough to get involved?
God calls the church to reign on earth
God has called the church to reign with Him on earth and rule it. How should the church govern where we are? Prayer is one thing, but more important is action! One of these actions is voting. Vote actively! Participate in decisions that govern and influence social policy by voting. Stand up for the truth by voting. Go out and vote for Jesus and the truth! Use the vote to make your voice heard!
When the church is silent, the voice of lies will cover over us! When the church speaks, truth will triumph over lies. There are still many state’s referendums to vote on, and we bless the churches of God in every state across the United States to rise up, preach the truth about homosexuality, actively participate in the voting, and stand for the truth!

Pray for America: Declarations for the 50 States to Enter the Destiny (9)
Editor’s Note : This is a prayer point for each of the 50 states of the United States, taken from Releasing the Prophetic Destiny of the Nation, published in 2005 by Dutch Sheets and Chuck Pierce a Nation)” book. The motto is the name the prophetic group gave to the 50 states during their 2003 tour. Starting this week(7/25), we will be here together to pray and declare for the five states, releasing them into their destiny.
Please pray for the following five states this week:
South Dakota: (Coyote State) The Stronghold State
Motto: Under God the People Rule
We, the people of South Dakota, thank the Almighty God for the livelihood and freedom of religion, and for the establishment of a perfect system of government, justice, safety, health and welfare, and to pass on the blessings of God to future generations, we commit ourselves to and implore God’s help and leading.
South Dakota, one of the least populous states in our nation, has one of the greatest voices in our nation”. Pray that South Dakota is increasingly in a place of usefulness to God for His purposes nationally–that they would move out into a place of strategic national influence There are giants in South Dakota, but God is going to transform this region that is belittled, trodden down, and disparaged, and make it a Hebron–a place of friendship–north and south friendship with God.” South Dakota is going to become conspicuous because of the presence of the Lord. To establish sacred covenants in South Dakota, for the networking of networks already there, for strategic partnerships to form, for the restoration of covenant relationships with Native Americans here. The spirit of religion in this state will be exposed, disarmed and bound. Pray for a number of key leaders and churches in key places to break out and join God in reaching this region.
Tennessee: (Volunteer State)
Motto: Agriculture and Commerce
We, the people of Tennessee, thank God Almighty for giving us the power and responsibility to govern our government and our communities. In order to maintain the freedom and prosperity that God has blessed us with, we surrender to the guidance of the supreme God and ask God for help and support anytime, anywhere.
A State Receiving God’s Covenant Blessing You are given another level of governmental authority to decree, bind, loose, to close doors and open doors.’ The Psalm 110 State. Take a new level of power and strength and function as a volunteer army of God. A new warring spirit is breaking forth in the state of Tennessee, and you will step into that mantle again.’ ” Tennessee is the state that supports Israel! decades-long or probably a 100-150 year-old curse was broken. moving you from curse to covenant blessings.’ a new level of serving.’ ” enter into a new blessing of covenantal release. a new level of unity.”

Texas has governmental anointing -on the Ekklesia of Texas–to rise up in her position in heavenly places and begin to legislate and begin to affect, to begin to release the government of God that changes the government of man.” You will be rerouted to do what I need to do at this time. There is strength in this state to turn the battle at the gate. Allow your strength to rise up…The heavens are opening tonight and the revelation is beginning to pour out.”
Utah: (Beehive State) The Worship State
Motto: Industry
We, the people of Utah, thank the Almighty God for the life and freedom we have. To secure and continue a free life, we ask God for eternal blessings
A different sound would come from Utah that would penetrate the entire nation. You will begin to have corporate worship services where they would “ascend in worship and descend in warfare.” the worship services would gradually increase from one hour to twelve hours and that it would release the sound coming forth and break through the veil. The Lord would remove the barriers keeping them from having unified corporate citywide and statewide worship events. Here are the battles they face and desire intercession for: 1.Seductive and divisive spirits, designed to draw people away from the truth and keep them from revelation. 2. Masonic and Mormon foundations in fertility cult spirits; oppression of women and the demonic exaltation of men. 3. Barrenness and untapped productivity in women–held in check by demonic forces and curses pronounced over them on a daily basis. 4.Being strong and courageous–to challenge and undo the works of the enemy and the ignorance of believers who cannot see. 5. Please pray that they will walk joyfully in the blessings God has given them and walk victoriously through the battles!
Vermont: (Green Mountain State) The Passover State and The Sleeping Beauty State
Motto: Freedom and Unity
We, the people of Vermont, thank the Almighty God who created us and gave us power over this land. Therefore, we are willing to guard and protect our homeland, maintain and improve social welfare and safety, supervise and participate in the work of government with the blessing, truth and help of God
Vermont , go to war for your inheritance… The beauty of holiness, the light of your inner radiance has dwindled…You are known as the Sleeping Beauty of this nation, it is time for that sleeping beauty to wake up. You have kicked against the pricks and even poison has caused you to go to sleep…So I am calling forth the leaders and the princes of this state to rise up and begin to stand together and decree into the atmosphere. And that which has been encompassed by thorns will begin to break… It is time to rise up. to shout into the atmosphere AWAKE, and as you shout, healing will begin to fall in your midst.” The Church has to rise up to contend with things that are trying to put it to sleep.””Rise up and go to each city and cry awake. For I say if you will cry and decree that each city will awake, there will be a movement of My Spirit that surprises each church in each city.”

Pray for Israel: Watching for Israel’s Elections – Hope in Distress
【Background of current events: Israel’s political system is faced with two major dilemmas: First, the Jews, native Jews and native Arabs who have returned from various countries since the resumption of the country have their own complex backgrounds and have produced many political parties, and the political opinions represented by each political party are very different. The second is the issue of cabinet formation for each new government. Since the resumption of the country, no single political party has ever won more than half of the parliamentary seats. Political parties that have won multiple seats must invite other small parties to form a coalition government. The small parties that are invited often offer high political stakes in exchange, resulting in the fact that these small parties have substantial influence far beyond the number of voters they represent.
These two dilemmas make the Israeli government’s implementation of old and new policies incoherent, as well as the lack of government executive execution capacity and the confusion of the Congress.
There is currently no official prime minister in Israel, only a caretaker prime minister. Israeli voters have been overwhelmed by unfulfilled promises in four elections in the past five years, with clashes in the Gaza Strip and terrorist attacks in Jerusalem. The nuclear crisis in Iran is getting worse outside, posing a huge challenge to the next government.

Pray for Israel: Watching for Israel’s Election Season
【Current affairs background: Since the resignation of former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett in late June, the parliament has been dissolved and the post of Prime Minister has been temporarily replaced by Foreign Minister Yair Lapid until a new parliament is elected. Israel will begin voting on November 1. That means Israel will have one of the longest election seasons ever, its fifth in three and a half years.
On this electoral board, political pieces are being moved. Some politicians are uniting with others because of various interests. At present, the election is still deadlocked, but the results of the primary election of the Israel Coalition Party (Likud, also known as the Likud Party) have been announced, and Netanyahu has won and once again becomes the leader of the Likud Party. However, Netanyahu is still facing trial in three cases involving bribery, fraud and breach of trust. The trial has been delayed for several years with no clear outcome.
Prolonged political uncertainty can be confusing, but there is no doubt that the Lord is treating Israel in a different way, allowing Israel to manage to move forward without a strong central leadership. After all, God is the “King” of Israel who has been watching over the nation and its people. Let’s pray together that God’s will for Israel will be done.

Critical Event: The Beginning of the Disaster – The Manifestation of the Sons of God
【Background: In late August, Pakistan in Central Asia experienced rare floods. Once a typical dry landlocked country, it was actually covered by flash floods. The rainfall was 190% higher than the average of the past 30 years. There is almost no dry land in the country, which is called the “Great Flood of the Century”. Tens of millions of people have been displaced and thousands have died. Farmland was washed away and infrastructure was severely damaged. While food supplies are in short supply, people are exposed to high-risk infectious diseases from fecal sewage. Local officials have warned of famine and plague, and the World Health Organization has warned of infectious diseases.
The beginning of a disaster
Not only Pakistan, but also China’s Sichuan Luding County recently suffered a 6.8-magnitude earthquake, landslides, large-scale house collapses, and countless losses… Due to the sanctions against Russia by the European Union and NATO, Russia is no longer willing to supply natural gas to Europe, causing many European countries. Face a huge energy shortage this winter – skyrocketing electricity and gas bills. People in Berlin, Germany cut down wood for heating in winter; people in Poland snapped up coal; France announced that the energy rationed this winter would not be enough to supply heating; 70% of restaurants in the UK were closed because they could not afford electricity and natural gas bills that were seven times higher than before. Street sign: heat or eat? (Heating or eating) means a desperate choice between freezing to death or starving to death.
Difficulty gives birth to the son of God
These are necessary progression. Just as a woman has to go through labor pains in childbirth ( Matt. 24:7-8 ), out of birth pain give birth to the sons of God, bringing the hope of glory in Christ to the world! The Gospel of John also says, “When a woman gives birth, she grieves, because her hour has come; and when she has had a child, she remembers the pain no more, for she rejoices that a man has been born into the world” (John 16:21). For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.that[a] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.( Romans 8:21 )
The sons of God have the authority to govern, manage, and rule the entire earth; the hearts of the sons are aligned with God the Father, and they will follow the example of Jesus, the eldest son, and act according to the will of the Father; Everything belongs to the Son.

Pray for Native Americans: Arise and Resound!
【Current Affairs: In these times, I believe the Lord is INCREASING and RELEASING His voice, with great authority, through His “first fruits” people groups of the land. He is raising up His sold out, set apart, Indigenous burning ones, and releasing HIS VOICE to set nations ablaze for Jesus.
Recently, the Lord took me up into an encounter, and I was looking down on my nation of Australia. By the Spirit of God, I knew that this encounter was for Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands and other Indigenous people to the lands.
His Glory Released Through the First Nations Indigenous People
I could see glory mist rising up from the land across the nation. As my spiritual eyes zoomed in closer to the land, in the midst of the glory, I could see people dancing, and I heard a glorious sound. It was the First Nations Indigenous people of the land, worshiping and dancing in their cultural way; the dust of the land spraying up as their feet hit the ground. The glory of the Lord was released into the land as they stomped in the dance. The glory spread and filled the land of the nation (see Habakkuk 2:14).
The First Nations people carry a glory that is unique to the land. This glory is about to be released into the nations, and I believe it is a powerful, ancient key to unlock the awakening of nations.
The Rhythm of an Ancient Love
The overwhelming sense which surrounded me was that these First Nation countrymen and women were dancing to the rhythm of an ‘ancient love’ that compelled them to arise and dance with song; an ancient love that wooed them and drew them back to their first love, Jesus.
“Break forth with dancing! Make music and sing God’s praises with the rhythm of the drums! For He enjoys His faithful lovers. He adorns the humble with His beauty, and He loves to give them victory.” (Psalm 149:3-4 TPT) (Photo via Piqsels)
“We love Him, because He first loved us.” (1 John 4:19 KJV)
An Intergenerational Love Drawn from an Ancient Timeline
This ancient love seemed to rise from deep within the age-old layers of this land. It felt to me like an intergenerational love for our Creator was being drawn from an ancient timeline, up through the feet of the First Nations people, and released into the “now” timeline. It was being released through their dance, their song and their hands.
As we all join hands and hearts, the love of God will become known through our lives in the present day. We will be known by the fruit of this ancient love of God; the one who loved us before the foundations of the earth. This intergenerational, ancient love is reigniting within the people.
During this whole encounter, I was surrounded with a strong sense of surrender and being positioned right in the center of a place that beckons, “Draw near to Me and I will draw near to you” (see James 4:8).
Ancient Strongholds Broken
As the perfect love of God poured out through the land and the people, the sheer power of this pure love caused ancient strongholds to be broken off of the land and the people. The land itself was breaking free from shackles and being saturated and soaked in the love and the pure goodness of God.
Unearthing His Hidden Treasures
The love of God was washing away all reproach and revealing these priceless treasures.
“I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord; and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up out of a horrible pit [a pit of tumult and of destruction], out of the miry clay (froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings. And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confident reliance in the Lord.” (Psalm 40:1-3 AMPC)
I believe the Lord is unearthing His hidden treasures. These hidden treasures are the First Nations voices of the Land, which are being unearthed from the lower layers of the land, causing them to ARISE and RESOUND – NO LONGER BOUND! Once hidden, now they will be lifted up from the miry clay to decree and declare the Word of the Lord, and to display His splendor. (Photo via Pxfuel)
First Nations Awakened Sons Shift Into Destiny
What I was seeing was the First Nations awakened sons and daughters shifting into destiny, arising from the land with a dance of deliverance, a strong song and a new voice.
“O God, my saving God, deliver me fully from every sin, even the sin that brought bloodguilt. Then my heart will once again be thrilled to sing the passionate songs of joy and deliverance!” (Psalm 51:14 TPT)
