Editor’s Note: Kansas’ Chiefs Team “Won The” Super Bowl “- The Fulfillment Of The Great Revival of Prophecy!

At 22:00 pm on February 2, 2020, the Chiefs of the Kansas City Football Team won the championship with a final score of 31-20. This is the Kansas City Chiefs’ 50-year-old victory in the Super Bowl again. In the case of lagging behind, the fourth quarter 

overtook the opponent and won the final victory of 31:20!

Prophet Shawn Bolz shared what one of the greatest prophet in the United States Bob Jones, had told him more than 10 times before his death in 2014. A prophecy: “When Chiefs win the Super Bowl, you will know the revival is coming. God is raising up His Apostolic Chiefs”. God showed him in a vision that if the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl, a revival is coming.

Prophetic artist Darren Canning About four weeks ago felt a strong urge to paint a chief. he painted three of them in Ohio. he had never painted any Chiefs before and he didn’t know there was a football team by that name – let alone that it was going to the final. He doesn’t watch football but this prophecy got his attention. He believes we should expect something amazing in the spiritual atmosphere in the season ahead. He believes the Lord had him paint these as a confirmation of that word. Revival. 

Also, the Super Bowl won on 02/02/ 2020 at 22:00 hours Coach Andy Reid’s 222 career win， 3xs down in double digits and with 11 points spread !

February 2, 2020 is exactly the 33rd day of the year, and there are 333 days before the end, which corresponds to Jeremiah 33: 3 “If you call on me, I will answer you, and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. ”

The 50-year-old victory of the Chiefs has a double meaning: the doomsday revival starts, and the revival from the aboriginals is coming.

Revival is coming, forerunners! Wherever you are, prepare yourself, wait faithfully, and He will come faithfully!

The 50-year-old victory of the Chiefs has a double meaning: the doomsday revival starts, and the revival from the aboriginals is coming.

Revival is coming, forerunners, wherever you are, prepare yourself, wait faithfully, and He will come faithfully!

【Background: The Chinese nation is now at a spiritual turning point. In this season, we are called to exercise our true identity and authority as kings and priests of the kingdom of God.

First Nation of North America: Chinese on the East Coast and Native Americans: Building True Family Relationships

【Background: Last week we reviewed how God led Chinese in the East Coast to walk with Native Americans in North America. We also mentioned that a small gathering will be held in Washington, D.C., to establish relationships with Native Americans at the end of this month. Since the prayer journey to the nine Sioux Aboriginal reservations in South Dakota last June, we have been praying with several Aboriginal representatives regularly online every week to discern the will of God. This gathering is the result of that. We only know that God wants the Chinese to establish a more authentic family relationship with the indigenous people. As for how to proceed, we are still seeking the Lord. ... Click to read more 】

Editor’s Note: Declare 3 day Esther Fast – Feb 3-5, 2020

Data Source: Renewal Family, City Prayer Altar

Dear Chinese family in the nations,   

The outbreak of the coronavirus in Wuhan, China has caught the attention of the world. 2020 is a year of shaking. As the body of Christ, we understand the Lord’s heart and are not fearful and helpless like those in the world. We see our Chinese family in Christ responding to the crisis with peace and faith, humility and repentance, and fasting and prayer. They once again prove themselves to be overcomer! As overseas Chinese in the body of Christ, we need to respond like Queen Esther in the face of this national calamity who thought she was safe in the palace, nevertheless chose to stand with her own people.

Mordecai sent back this answer: “Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape. If you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?

(Esther 4:13-14)

We want to declare a 3 day corporate Esther fast from Feb 3-5. Though different ones and groups have already been fasting and praying. We feel as the overseas Chinese bride of Christ, we need to respond to the call for prayer from our family in China as a corporate Esther and stand as one with them! Indeed we are one! We overseas Chinese and our family in China share the same destiny!

God has chosen China, and God has chosen Wuhan. In the spirit realm, God chose Wuhan to be the starting point and womb for the homecoming journey in China. In the natural realm, Wuhan is the hub for the nation. Historically she was an important military base (The Wuchang Uprising).Wuhan is a strategic place whether in the spiritual or natural realm. We pray for the blood of Jesus to cleanse all historic strife, pride, broken covenants and shedding of innocent blood. We repent for church divisions and pray for true love and oneness in the body of Christ that will allow us to receive corporate authority and healing.

This is God’s shaking. The Lord has blessed China in recent years and has called China to lead nations to seek His face. But God has a higher purpose for China, so He has allowed this special training to break her and to push her to solitude with Him in order to promote her to be a high priest for this generation (Numbers 16:46-49) , and intercede for the people! We declare: God trusts the Chinese church , and He has allowed this epidemic to shake away all that is not of Him, so that China and Wuhan will receive the unshakeable kingdom! We declare the anointing of family and unity will fill all the churches in Wuhan!

The avalanche of prayer released on behalf of Wuhan has also proved the reality of the family of God in China and globally! We declare: A great harvest and revival are coming upon China and Wuhan! A powerful family army of God is coming forth from China and

Wuhan!

Editor’s Note: Dr. Paul Dhinakaran’s Prophecy on China in 2016

Data Source: Fire of Zion; Chinese translation: Toward Zion 2017/1/15

The Lord said …

After the appearance of the Lord on March 14, 2008, May 2, and April 6, 2014, the Lord gave me inspiration again on April 8, 2016.

I believe that before the countdown to plagues, natural disasters, and human tragedies, there will be a window of opportunity for humans to listen, to experience, and receive the gospel. God will give in the days of the rapture, the great disaster, and the return of the Lord Looking forward. Of course there will be war in the world, but God will save all mankind through the gospel power of the Lord Jesus Christ. This prophecy includes God’s hope for those who leave their personal deeds to believe in Him and accept Jesus, follow Him, and obey God’s plan in their lives. (A detailed manuscript of each prophecy can be found on our website www.jesuscalls.org)

The healing anointing will flow in China and Asia: 

1. My name and My words will go to Mongolia. The Mongolians will hear My voice.
2. China will be anointed by My Holy Spirit. I will shine My face upon them.
3. This nation is establishing an intractable defense. As she grows stronger, with so-called non-penetrable walls and websites (electronic defense), her protective wall will collapse.
4. The plague will first reach eastern China and even spread to Greater China (Translator’s note: the administrative regions of China). When no one can help them, they will call on Me when the plague spreads across the country. My grace will come down and people will be redeemed.
5. My healing will come throughout China, and they will know that I am their one and only Savior and Redeemer.
6. It’s like the water flowing down from the mountains, My anointing and grace will also flow from China to the surrounding areas.
7. At present, the surrounding areas are worried about this big country, but the time is coming when My grace will flow from this big country to all countries; My name will be sound supernaturally.
8. They always started their activities with a rumbling gong, but now they will hear the bell of redemption, full of joy.

Declaration Prayer: Proclaiming for Chinese Revival and Destiny

【Background: The Chinese nation is now at a spiritual turning point. In this season, we are called to exercise our true identity and authority as kings and priests of the kingdom of God. When the large-scale epidemic “Coronavirus” broke out in Wuhan on January 21, it spreads at a very fast pace which causing loss of lives and many people were infected. Many cities in China are being isolated and public transportation is shutting down. Asia and the world are also under the shadow of the epidemic.

Over the past years, God has blessed and made China strong, and the Chinese churches have been connected and united together in the form of house church. But He has greater calling and mission for the Chinese body of Christ. He must elevate the height, depth, and purity of the Chinese church. Therefore, He has taken His children in China into an unprecedented sense of despair and powerlessness, and showing us how little faith we have. It is a deep brokenness in a quiet way! For us to truly learn the lesson of only see Christ and no one else, in order to prepare us to enter a new level.

Now, we are entering this historical moment, the Chinese family is face to face with the fear of death, and the bride of Christ is having a face to face encounter with the end time  forces. The enemy knows its time is running out, so its ferocity is ever increasing. However, in the end the Son of God appears to destroy the works of the devil. (1 John 3: 8) Chinese people around the world must rise to watch and pray, not only to overcome this plague battle, but also to enter into the same destiny given to the Chinese by God since the creation of the world, to spread the gospel to all nations all the way to Jerusalem, and to welcome the returning of the glorious King.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has developed a test that instantly reverses the polymerase chain reaction, which can identify and diagnose hospitalized patients with coronavirus in Wuhan, hoping to help other infected countries through the international resource portal soon.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention screens passengers at five airports in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and Atlanta , and the scope of inspections will be expanded to 20 airports. The US government announced on January 31 that returning to the United States from Hubei will be compulsorily isolated for 14 days, and returning to the United States from other parts of mainland China will be separated by home for 14 days, and non-US borrowers will be prohibited from coming to the United States from mainland China.

There is still a long way to go on Antiviral treatment. Researchers in China and Thailand have sequenced 19 strains from different patients, but the solution is far from complete .

Critical Event: Pray for Iran- Transform The Islamic Regime

source: CBN News 1-17-2020

Is This the Latest Sign That Iran’s Islamic Regime Is Creeping Closer to Collapse?

For the first time in eight years, Iran’s supreme Islamic leader Ayatollah Khamenei led Friday’s prayers in Tehran. It’s being called a sign of how much pressure the regime is feeling since the US airstrike killed Iran’s terrorist mastermind and US sanctions began crippling the Iranian economy.  Reza Pahlavi, the son of the former Shah of Iran, said: “The people have had it. Today’s generation of young Iranians will not take it anymore. They want to have an opportunity for a better future. They want to be on the path of modernity and freedom. The only thing that stands between them and the free world is this regime.”

Iran Government Feeling Pressure, Monitoring Contacts With ‘Infidels’

Western pressures and burgeoning protests inside Iran have caused the regime to closely monitor Iranian Christians and their house churches. Mike Ansari of Heart4Iran, a network of more than 100 ministries that reaches Christians of Iran through media and broadcasting said the government is keeping a close eye on the activities of Christians and also Muslims who have made contact with the Herat4Iran ministry. He said just this week, Iranians phoned a Heart4Iran call center and said Iranian intelligence agents contacted them saying they had no right contacting  “infidels” outside of Iran.

50% of the Iranian population is under 30 years of age. Many young Iranians learn about life and pop culture in the West by following social media. And surprisingly, Iranian men are not the ones leading this rapidly expanding move of Christianity in the nation. “The women of Iran are courageous, they are bold and strong, very much at the forefront of the movement of the growth of Christianity in Iran. They are not afraid,” Ansari explained. 

Ansari said despite sophisticated Herat4Iran television broadcasts and missionaries going to Iran to share the Good News of Jesus, many have found Jesus working way ahead of them through dreams and visions. Ansari also said many young Iranians are returning to traditional Christianity which was practiced in Iran for centuries before it was eradicated by Islam.

CBN Middle East Bureau Chief Chris Mitchell says prayer is being seen as critical at this juncture.

Pray for First Nation of North America:Chinese on the East Coast and Native Americans: Building True Family Relationships!

【Background: Last week we reviewed how God led Chinese in the East Coast to walk with Native Americans in North America. We also mentioned that a small gathering will be held in Washington, D.C., to establish relationships with Native Americans at the end of this month. Since the prayer journey to the nine Sioux Aboriginal reservations in South Dakota last June, we have been praying with several Aboriginal representatives regularly online every week to discern the will of God. This gathering is the result of that. We only know that God wants the Chinese to establish a more authentic family relationship with the indigenous people. As for how to proceed, we are still seeking the Lord.

By God’s leading, we invited the Aboriginal leaders and other ethnic groups that have a burden on Aboriginal people. We are surprised to find that almost everyone that is coming this time is intercessor. We continue to seek the will of God for this event. The following sharing are from Jennifer Gomez intercessors leaders of Choctaw:

There are several  First Nations’ ministries in America, but they all have a different strategy or message.  Where is the unity of faith and why are we not united? Why are the First Nation believers still scattered?  For the ones who are running, What vision are they running to? I ask because a fruit of vision we should see is unity.  I am not trying to be critical, God knows we have plenty of critics, but seriously what is our vision from our Father that produces unity?  One thing these ministries have in common is they all have quoted the Billy Graham prophecy. “The Native American is a sleeping giant.  He is awakening. The original Americans could become the evangelist who will help win America for Christ!”  I believe this was the first of visions for the Native People because all of these ministries began running.  We see a goal, but where is the unity? 

Now that we are at this point, running, to reach our own people.  Let’s take a moment to let Holy Spirit reset, align, update, and form us how we wants us.  We have to let Him remove the old structures, old mindsets and old wineskins so we can receive the new!  I will be honest the pyramid structure is something that keeps us separated. We are a tribal people and it is in our DNA to function as a community and make decisions as a council.  Most importantly we MUST BE LED BY the HOLY SPIRIT! 

We know having a relationship with our Heavenly Father is vital.  Also, we must embrace one another, not just ministry (what we have made ministry to be), we have to learn to hear each other’s hearts again.  Hear the God burning inside every one of us. I believe God is bringing us together to remove the old things that have been confining us for a fresh updated vision that will bring unity and healing.
