Editorial Special Section: Jean Harmon: Victory Over Chaos
Message: Jane Hamon Date: March 26, 2024 Source: Give Him 15
As I was seeking the Lord in this season, I heard Him say He is positioning the Ekklesia to experience victory over chaos and a time of recovery of all that has been stolen. It’s a time to focus on the victory ahead, not on the chaos that may be swirling around. It’s time to see the straight paths so we can speak to the crooked places and call the things that are not as though they are. It’s a time for fresh vision, to see the light that is invading darkness, to see how God sees, filled with hope and a future. We may not like the battle, but remember, there is no victory without a fight.
Editorial Special Section: Jonathan Cahn: “The Return of Gods” – House of Evil Spirits
Message: Jonathan Cahn Date: February 22, 2024 Source: “The Return of the Gods” Chapter 6
Can the final clue be found in an ancient fable?
The final piece of the puzzle exists in an ancient passage recorded in the New Testament, and are the words Jesus spoke to his disciples – a parable that reveals profound, monumental and prophetic implications for the modern world and our times. This is what He said:
When unclean spirits go out of a person, they go to and fro in waterless places, seeking rest, but find none. Then he said, “I want to go back to my original home.”
What does it mean? What does it have to do with the affairs of the gods? What does it mean for modern times?

Editor’s Note: This article is an outline of Nita’s message at Bethel Church.
- A new day has arrived . This is what He has spent thousands of years preparing for His people.
- Nita had been seeing a recurring vision before the meeting: the earth exploding, exploding with the glory of the Lord . Not a vision of glory coming, but the whole world exploding with glory.
- The Melchizedek Priests Have Been Released to the Earth : About a year or two ago, Nita saw that the Melchizedek Priests had been released to the earth, and we are now entering into the fruit of “this wonderful ministry that the Lord has released on the earth.”

Pray for America: Prophetic Warning: Baltimore Bridge
Editor’s Note: This article is excerpted from the post of David Kubal by Intercessors for America from March 30, 2024.
This week may turn out to be an historic prophetic juncture in the relationship of the United States and Israel and in the trajectory of the nation. It starts with a spiritual law dating back to the call of Abram:
“I will make you (Abram) a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Gen. 12:2-3; Num. 24:9)
Pray for America: Joel’s Army Prayer Points
Editor’s note: This article is the key points of the “World for Christ” ministry led by Nita Johnson in praying for the United States on March 10. It is for your reference and prayer.
- Praise Jesus, our King of glory . Worship God, His justice is reliable and true!
- Pray for the church. Repent from abandoning the faith, shedding innocent blood, abortion, and idolatry. Pray for a great awakening, sound doctrine, and the rise of a glorious, victorious church.
Pray for America: PRAYERS AND DECREES FOR THE PROTECTION OF AMERICA’S WATERWAYS
Editor’s Note: This article comes from the “Give Him 15 Minutes” website of intercession leader Dutch Sheets , which provides a reference for intercessors from various states to pray for American waterways. May the Holy Spirit lead the intercessors to accomplish this critical task of restoring America.
【Prayer】
Father, You have assigned us to pray for protection over America’s water supply, waterways, and dams. Your Word tells us that unless You keep or guard a city, the efforts of watchmen are in vain (Psalm 127:1). Therefore, we look to You for protection – You are our refuge, a very present help in times of trouble (Psalm46:1). When You are for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31)? You save us from our enemies, men of bloodshed who do iniquity (Psalm 59:1-2). You are theCreator and Owner of the entire world – all of its inhabitants, as well as the seas and rivers. You are the King of glory, the Lord strong and mighty in battle, and the Lord of angel armies (Psalm 24:1,7,8,10). As a Master Workman, You set the boundaries for the seas and drew the tributaries of the earth (Proverbs 8:29-30), and still maintain ownership and authority over them.
Pray for America: 24 Prayers for 24/7 Prayer Against Terror Attacks in America
Editor’s note: As prophet Chris Reeds mentioned in the message “As is Israel, so is the United States ,” many sleeper cells of terrorist organizations have infiltrated into the United States and established many camps. Like this terrorist attack coming from Israel’s southern border, they are also plotting attacks in the United States through people passing through our southern border. We need to pray, watch, listen, watch, and like the children of Issachar, know the times and seasons. The following prayers are from the 24 prayers in “Elijah’s List”,which was reposted from the prophet Charlie Shamp’s facebook. We encourage all intercessors to pray for the United States under the leadership of Holy Spirit.
- Heavenly Father, we come before You, seeking Your protection over America. In Psalm 91:4, You promise to cover us with Your feathers and provide refuge under Your wings. Shield our nation from all forms of terrorism and keep us safe from harm.

Pray for Israel: UN ceasefire resolution and hostage release
【 Current events background: Last Monday (3/25), the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution requiring Israel and Hamas to immediately cease fire in the Gaza Strip and immediately and unconditionally release all hostages. The United States abstained from voting in this vote. …Detailed Reading】

- Joel 3:1 In that day, when I bring back the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem , I will gather all the people and bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat, and I will judge them there.
【prayer】
- Israel’s heart is steadfast in trusting in the Lord God : Heavenly Father, you will keep those whose hearts are steadfast in you, and you will keep them in perfect peace, so that Israel will rely firmly on you and turn to you, because you are their eternal rock. By protecting Israel from the impact of UN resolutions, it can still firmly carry out the war to the end and rescue all hostages. When Israel hears the United Nations resolution and feels sad, please comfort Israel personally and let Israel know that you stand with them and that you will avenge them.
- Rise up the spiritual United Nations : Heavenly Father, we thank You that although the nations resist Israel, Your anointed one, and the United Nations passes resolutions to boycott Israel, the spiritual United Nations composed of the body of Christ from all nations will rise up and stand with Israel. Bless Israel, watch for Israel, and carry out your resolutions for Israel, your unchangeable plan of redemption.
In the name of the Lord Jesus I pray, Amen.
Praying for Israel: Prayer Guide Against Anti-Semitism
The atrocities committed by Hamas and various terrorist allies against the nation of Israel on Oct. 7 seem to be a plumb line or water shed event on the earth, with nations dividing for or against the nation of Israel (see Joel 3:1–2). Former allies have become enemies in the public square. Since that day, the number of pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel/antisemitic events worldwide has increased dramatically. The spirit of Antichrist manifesting as the spirit of Amalek (see Exodus 17:8–16) is coming unmasked.
Critical Event: Pray for the Red Sea Crisis
Editor’s Note : This article is an excerpt from a post posted by the “Jerusalem Global Chinese Worship Center” on January 17
【Background It has been more than 100 days since the war between Israel and Kazakhstan broke out. In order to show support for the Hamas terrorist organization, the Yemeni rebel Houthis (Note: also known as the “Youth Movement”) have frequently attacked or attacked Israeli ships passing through the Red Sea. Since November, more than 2,000 ships have been forced to leave the Red Sea due to attacks on ships bound for Israel. In this regard, the United States proposed “Operation Prosperity Guardian” to join forces with the United Kingdom and other allies to escort merchant ships in the Red Sea. …Detailed Reading 】

Please give the United Kingdom and the United States the wisdom and strategy to combat the threat posed by the Houthi armed groups, so that shipping lanes can resume normal operations and the international economy will not be affected in any way. We declare in the name of Jesus Christ,
- Jehovah God rules over the Red Sea!
- The enemy’s attempt to provoke a new front of war in the Middle East must not end, nor can it endanger the security of the people.
- The bows of the Elamites will be broken , Iran and its facilities will be destroyed, and chaos will befall the IRGC.
- The Houthis in Yemen will be destroyed, and all those who hate Israel will be brutally beaten.
- The links between the terrorist groups supported by Iran will be broken , and chaos and division will set in, pitting them against each other.

Pray for Native Americans: Jerusalem Aboriginal Embassy
【Current events: The opening ceremony of the “Jerusalem Indigenous Embassy” led by the “Indigenous Coalition For Israel” (ICFI) was held on the evening of February 1 at the “Friends of Zion” Museum in Jerusalem held. …Detailed Reading 】
- Isaiah 60:1-2 Arise and shine! Because your light has come! The glory of the Lord shines upon you. Behold, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness covers the peoples, but the Lord will appear and shine upon you; his glory will be upon you.
- Isaiah 40:1-2 “Comfort, comfort my people,” says your God. 2 Speak comfort to Jerusalem and proclaim to her that her days of war are fulfilled and her sins are forgiven her. You will receive double punishment from the hand of the Lord for all your sins.”

【Prayer】
Heavenly Father, we thank You that in Israel’s hour of greatest need, You called upon indigenous peoples around the world to rise up to comfort Your people and to speak words of comfort to Jerusalem. We believe that the establishment of the “Jerusalem Aboriginal Embassy” at this time is crucial and in line with Your will. May You bless every indigenous group participating in this event according to Your promises, and may You also use this embassy to change the views of indigenous peoples and non-Indigenous people around the world, and become a center for inspiring indigenous peoples around the world to support Israel and boycott the Israel’s deceitful, misleading, and misleading statements.

- The Land of Israel is the birthplace of Jewish nation formation, the development of language and sacred literature, beliefs, customs and traditions.
- The Jews are the indigenous peoples of the Land of Israel, and the State of Israel is an indigenous nation.
- No weapon formed against Israel will be used; and whoever raises his tongue against Israel in judgment will be condemned.
- Complaints against Israel for genocide before the International Court of Justice in The Hague will be in vain and will have no effect!
- Jehovah God has saved Israel before, and He will save Israel again in this difficult time.
- More indigenous groups and non-indigenous countries must stand with Israel, comfort and support Israel!
In the name of Christ Jesus, Amen!

Editorial Special Section: Lou Engle: Elijah Fast + Million Women
Message: Lou Engle Date: March 15, 2024 Source: Elijah’s List Chinese
Editor’s note: This article comes from The Call and The Briefing editor, Cheryl Amabile, and was published in Elijah’s List, She calls intercessors to participate in Elijah’s 40-day fast, the gatherings in state capitals on April 13, and the Million Women Gathering on October 12:
It’s not too late to join us in our 40-day fast from now until we gather at our state capitols on April 13. God is stirring a groundswell of intercession to redeem America and raise a standard for Israel and the nations of the earth. We value your engagement with us. Today’s post lays out key prophetic insights for strategic intercession over the coming months. Consider sharing this with your friends and spiritual communities, that we might run together in collective fasting and prayer.
The Elijah Fast
In his hour of greatest weakness, under the threat of Jezebel’s murderous decree, Elijah journeyed into the wilderness in 40 days of fasting. There, on the mountain of the Lord, he was given authority to shift the government of the nation. God was turning the hearts of His people. He was judging the sexual immorality and idolatry of Baal worship throughout the land. But for Israel to fully return to the Lord, the spiritual revival had to be accompanied by systemic reformation. Out of the fast came the future of the nation. The prophet inaugurated the new. This too is our purpose in this hour of prophetic intercession.
“Then the Lord said to him: ‘Go, return on your way to the Wilderness of Damascus; and when you arrive, anoint Hazael as king over Syria. Also you shall anoint Jehu the son of Nimshi as king over Israel. And Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place.'” (1 Kings 19:15–16)
We are seven months out from the Day of Atonement on October 12, 2024. We believe God has marked it as a day of decision for America. Will we cross over into our prophetic destiny as a nation? Or will we be swept away in the present flood of iniquity and antichrist ideologies? Every man and every woman has a voice before the throne. We invite you to contend with us over the following prayer focuses from now to the gathering of “A Million Women” on the National Mall.
A Million Esthers
We are praying the prophecy from 2014, that a million women would gather in D.C., in the spirit of Jeremiah 9, as a “Last Stand” to save America. Join us in calling them forth from the North, the South, the East, and the West as we believe together for a supernatural mobilization of Esthers. May the deep groanings of intercession be stirred even now and culminate in a true birthing of salvations and marked shiftings on October 12.
The Elections
On the first night of the fast, we received dreams of President Trump. We were reminded of a former dream after the 2020 election, in which we were instructed to pray and wait for Psalm 35 to be fulfilled. This psalm was written by King David to invoke God’s vindication when he was being attacked and wrongly accused by his enemies. It may have been written when Absalom had usurped David’s throne. We are praying for God to judge over the judges in President Trump’s legal battles, and that the witchcraft against him will be broken.
Chris Berglund dreamed recently that we were getting on Air Force One together with countless spiritual sons and daughters to engage the battle in the heavens over the presidency. We can’t have a president who is imposing transgender policies upon our children. (Photo Left: Chris Berglund)
Nate Johnson also dreamed that dogs had dug up Jezebel in the White House. She mocked him and said, “I’ve taken the high places.” But Nate laughed in return and said, “We’re going to throw you out the window again!” (Photo Right: Nate Johnston)
From now to November, we must uphold the rod of the Lord’s authority over the election process, over President Trump, and over the U.S. Congress.
The Latter Rain
We believe we have come to the threshold of long-awaited promises, and we’re contending for the release of the latter rains of revival.
Lou Engle once dreamed of huge, powerful cannons of God, but they were completely entwined in a jungle by an old man with an old cart. Suddenly, violent warriors descended upon the man and ejected him and his cart with tremendous force so that the guns of God could go forth. Immediately the scene changed and a scroll unfolded which read, “In yet 40 days, I will send the rain!” The 40-day fast is an act of spiritual violence. Let’s unite like those mighty warriors to see a breakthrough of historic awakening and revival.
100,000 LGBTQ
In 1989, Bob Jones had a heavenly encounter where he saw 100,000 people in the LGBTQ community being saved, healed, and delivered as the first wave of the coming revival. Last year, Lou Engle prayed for a dream that would give him an entrance to the fulfillment of this prophetic promise. That night he dreamed of the term “delta factor.” He awoke from the dream and prayed for another dream to interpret what delta factor meant. He fell asleep again and was told, “A delta factor is a leader of a million.” We believe the dream points to a million women travailing in prayer with their husbands and families to birth salvation and transformation for this broken and lost generation, among whom are 100,000 LGBTQ. Delta means CHANGE!
Meanwhile, we are taking our stand daily and declaring the victory of Jesus’ Blood over the Ishtar spirit, the goddess of sexual immorality, pornography, homosexuality, and transgenderism. May the Lord rebuke this principality over this generation of sons and daughters, and pour out His Spirit on a people so longing for freedom. (Recommended reading: Return of the Gods, by Jonathan Cahn.)
The Great Communion Blood Revival
On the Day of Atonement, the high priest would go through the veil into the Holy of Holies and sprinkle the blood on the mercy seat for the sins of the nation. That one day, as the blood was applied, determined whether or not the nation would enter judgment. We have been believing and praying for the “Great Communion Revival” for twenty years. On October 12 (Yom Kippur), hundreds of thousands will hold a glorious communion service and lift up the Blood of the Lamb over America from around the world. Could the veil that covers our nation be removed in measure? We believe so! When Jesus cried, “It is finished!” the heavens were shaken and powers of Hell were dislodged from their thrones and cast down. (Photo via Pixabay)
Part of this “Esther Call” is to break the witchcraft that is fueling the false ideologies sweeping into America from its Haman-type governmental leaders and elites. On October 12, there’s going to be a moment where we decree the victory of the Blood over that witchcraft. Clearly, we are in a war in the heavens and on the earth, and to the victor goes the soul of the nation. Pray for the Great Communion Revival!
Don’t Mess with Our Kids
We must take a stand for our children. We need nothing less than a revolution in America and in the nations of the earth. We are praying Luke 1:17, that God would pour out something stronger than the rebellion. We are believing for Esthers to arise, get their voices back, and to go before school boards and invade every sphere of influence. We are calling for a three-day Esther fast, on April 11-13. Women, on April 13, go with your families to your state capitols to hold communion and prepare to be a voice that transcends the natural realm, declaring, “Don’t mess with our kids!“
Israel
This Esther movement must progress from a million women on the Mall to a million Esthers, virtually, on the Wailing Wall for Israel. We are praying and believing for a ministry house of women in Jerusalem who will pray daily at the Western Wall, but also for a mass mobilization of intercession against the Haman spirit at work through Hamas and through global antisemitism.
Let’s agree together for the Bride of Christ to arise as a global Esther at the end of the age, preparing for His return, praying for the salvation of the Jewish people, and contending for the peace of Jerusalem

Editorial Special Section: Jean Harmon: Victory Over Chaos
Message: Jane Hamon Date: March 26, 2024 Source: Give Him 15
As I was seeking the Lord in this season, I heard Him say He is positioning the Ekklesia to experience victory over chaos and a time of recovery of all that has been stolen. It’s a time to focus on the victory ahead, not on the chaos that may be swirling around. It’s time to see the straight paths so we can speak to the crooked places and call the things that are not as though they are. It’s a time for fresh vision, to see the light that is invading darkness, to see how God sees, filled with hope and a future. We may not like the battle, but remember, there is no victory without a fight.
Yes, I am afraid it’s going to be a wild ride: economic ups and downs, global instability, societal unrest, political manipulations, and a “the end justifies the means” mentality that skirts laws and defies principles. Yet in the midst of all this, there is an awakening taking place! People are waking up from their slumber, both in natural and spiritual things. Mindsets are changing, opening hearts to hear the gospel in a brand new way. The Kingdom of God will advance as revival continues to sweep college campuses, Hollywood, boardrooms, and yes, churches. Dark forces will try to inflame global conflict to stop this, but it’s not time for a World War III. It’s time for the church, the Ekklesia, to pray and decree God’s purposes.
Back in August of 2020 the Lord gave me a word for the beginning years of this decade. He said, “Chaos is getting ready to increase.” (Yay! What an exciting word!). I knew Chaos was personified as a dragon named Rahab in Isaiah 51:9 which was an ancient god of chaos. It represented evil of every kind at work in the earth, in people, and in the governments of nations. Chaos brings utter confusion, disorder, discord, and lawlessness. We have certainly seen chaos increase in the earth since 2020.
The second thing God said was that He was going to use chaos to expose corruption, evil agendas, and secret deals being made to control the nations. Basically, everything that can be shaken will be shaken so that which cannot be shaken will remain, but remember, we serve a Kingdom which cannot be shaken (see Hebrews 12:27-28). The shaking will be our making!
Then the third thing He said was, “Then tell them: The God of Peace is rising.” He said this part three times for emphasis. Romans 16:20 declares, “The God of Peace will soon crush satan under your feet.”
Isaiah 9:6-7 says one of the names of the coming Messiah would be Prince of Peace. The word peace is Shalom in Hebrew, which means peace, safety, prosperity, happiness, wholeness, favor, and rest.Rabbinical scholars, however, look at the letters used to form this word and the pictures represented by those letters. In this case, the pictures give a deeper meaning to the word Shalom: Peace comes when you destroy the authority of chaos!(3) This is our assignment: to destroy the authority of every demonic force of chaos through the power of the victorious blood of Christ! We must pray against the evil agenda of the enemy to stir up chaos, however, God promises He will use the very things the enemy has meant for evil to turn for our good (see Genesis 50:20).
For example, Joseph received prophetic dreams of leadership and government positioning then all hell broke loose against him. When this word came, he was just the son of a shepherd. His journey of trials, and yes, chaos, shaped him for his destiny. In Potiphar’s house, he learned leadership and agriculture. In the palace prison he learned government and how the palace operated. What was he going to need to assume his position as Pharaoh’s right hand? He would need knowledge of leadership, government, and agriculture. Your trials are actually preparing you for your destiny. Don’t waste the process with bitterness or anger. Recognize God will cause all things to work for your good. Allow the peace of God to overthrow every kind of chaos in your life as the power of the God of Peace is made real.
In Genesis 1:2, we are told in the beginning, the earth was without form and void. The phrase without form indicates a state of chaos and confusion.The enemy is trying to bring nations under the power of chaos, without form, by destroying societal norms regarding the nuclear family, gender, and by removing righteous foundations. How did God deal with this primordial chaos? He spoke into the chaos and said, “Let there be!” Let there be light. Let there be life. Let there be order. The Voice of the Lord confronts chaos. Divine Order confronts confusion. We are in a time when His voice is being released in power through the mouths of His people, to decree divine order into the chaos of this world.
This year, God is concerned about things being set in order in His house. We recognize judgment begins in the house of God (see 1 Peter 4:17). While God is setting His house in order, we must also set our own houses in order. Reset your faith. Reset your vision. Renew your commitment to righteousness.
This will be a time to not just set our house in order, but also set our mouths in order! When God spoke to Israel to cross in to take their promised land, all they could see were the giants. They spoke about the problem rather than the promise. But there were two, Joshua and Caleb, who saw the problem but chose instead to speak the promise. “We eat giants for our bread!” Speak the promise, not the problem!
Interestingly, this is the Year of the Dragon on the Chinese lunar calendar. I believe it is a time to confront and defeat this demonic dragon of chaos, by releasing the Word of the Lord and His powerful decrees through our mouths. Speak to the chaos and confusion, that which is out of order and lawless throughout the nations, and see this dragon, this leviathan, broken into pieces by the sword of the Lord that comes out of our mouths (see Isaiah 27:1).
I hear the Lord say, “There a company of dragon slayers arising today. These are those who have looked death right in the eye and not given up, backed off, or been intimidated. They will operate with supernatural courage to confront chaos, confusion, and every emissary of lawlessness operating on the earth. Jesus, the ultimate dragon slayer, defeated death, hell, and the grave, paving the way for this new generation who will enforce his victory. Those who thought they would be broken by the harsh trials of the last season, yet held on to the Word of the Lord will prevail. I am waking up My people, reminding them of My prophetic promises and calling them to wage war by them, knowing My voice shatters the enemy every time (see Isaiah 30:31). So rise up, dragon slayers! Shake off all perceived defeat of the last season and rise into new authority and victory for the new day.”
Pray with me:
Lord, give me the courage of a dragon slayer. Fill my mouth with words of revelation and power and anoint me to confront chaos and confusion everywhere I go. Send an awakening in our land. Expose all corruption. Raise up your Ekklesia to release an increase of your government and peace by destroying the authority of chaos in our nation and in the earth. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Decree with me:
The God of Peace is crushing satan under my feet! I decree divine order into every place of chaos, and crooked places are being made straight. I am a dragon slayer, in Jesus’ name!

Editorial Special Section: Jonathan Cahn: “The Return of Gods” – House of Evil Spirits
Message: Jonathan Cahn Date: February 22, 2024 Source: “The Return of the Gods” Chapter 6
Can the final clue be found in an ancient fable?
The final piece of the puzzle exists in an ancient passage recorded in the New Testament, and are the words Jesus spoke to his disciples – a parable that reveals profound, monumental and prophetic implications for the modern world and our times. This is what He said:
When unclean spirits go out of a person, they go to and fro in waterless places, seeking rest, but find none. Then he said, “I want to go back to my original home.”
What does it mean? What does it have to do with the affairs of the gods? What does it mean for modern times?
Fable: House of Evil Spirits
This passage talks about a man who was possessed by an unclean spirit. This man was freed from these unclean spirits. Then the unclean spirits wandered in dry places, probably deserts, but could not find a place to rest. It then decides to return to its “house”, the formerly possessed person.
But when they returned, they found that its original residence, that person, was empty, cleaned, and in order. The purified state of the vessel will cause the evil spirit to bring back seven other evil spirits even more evil than itself. So in addition to the original spirit body, this person is now possessed by seven other spirit bodies. Therefore, he ends up in a worse situation now than when he started.
At first glance, this metaphor appears to be about a person who is possessed, released, and then re-possessed. It can certainly be applied to a possessed person. But the parable is not actually about the man at all. It is simply an illustration, an example, an analogy, used to reveal a spiritual principle and give a prophetic warning.
Spirit of Roman
The key lies in the last few sentences of the parable. Jesus said, “The last state of the man will be worse than the first,” and then adds, “So it will be with this evil generation.” So the parable is not about an individual being possessed, but about a collective nation being possessed, or a mass of people. To possess is to possess a generation, a culture, a civilization.
The direct application of this parable seems to be to a generation living in first-century Judaea. But the principles revealed in the parable transcended far beyond that country’s time and borders. They apply throughout Western civilization and span all eras into the modern world. how so? The Roman Empire and Western civilization more than two thousand years ago were a temple of spirits, a civilization with gods. But since the true word of God, the Spirit of God, and the gospel entered that house, Western civilization was liberated from many foreign evil spirits. Just as the parable says, the house was in order and the civilization was purified.
So, what happened to the vassal states later? This metaphor answers this question. The evil spirit is still present, but now lives outside the house. So in this case the spiritual realm that Western civilization once had within itself still exists, but now resides outside the borders of that civilization. They roam dry places, desolate lands; they live in the shadows. They live in exile.
Return of Evil Spirits
The spirit in the parable cannot find rest, so it seeks to return to its “house” to reoccupy it.
It is recorded that when Jesus was about to cast an evil spirit out of a demon-possessed man, the evil spirit implored Him to throw it into a nearby herd of swine. The spirit is parasitic. They need a host to possess.
Therefore, evil spirits expelled from Western civilization, if they cannot find rest, if they cannot find a comparable civilization to possess, will seek to return to what they consider to be their homeland. Therefore, we expect that the same spirit world that once held Western Civilization will seek to do so again.
But the question must be asked: How can an evil spirit return to the house from which it was deprived?
Empty House and Seven other
It can only do this when the house is unoccupied, empty and the door is open. The metaphor continues: When it comes, it finds it empty, cleaned and put in order.
The house is clean and tidy due to the initial deliverance or exorcism. However this means no one lives there now. The house is empty. Therefore, it can be reoccupied.
So he went and brought seven more demons more evil than himself, and they also went in and lived there. And that person ended up in a worse state than the first.
Since the house was clean and orderly, the evil spirit brought seven more evil spirits to participate in the repossession. The implication is that if the house is not cleaned and put in order, the evil spirits will not bring other evil spirits to occupy it.
State of Darkness
That’s the warning. Properties that have been cleared but are still vacant will be repossessed. If it is repossessed, it will end up in a worse condition than if it had never been cleaned. What would happen if we applied this to civilization as a whole?
It can be translated like this: If a culture, a society, a country or a civilization is purified, exorcised of gods, but then remains or becomes empty, it will be re-possessed by the evil spirits that once possessed it, and more. It will end up in a worse state than if it had never been cleansed or exorcised. According to this trope, it ends up being many times more possessed and evil than before.
Repossess The Door of Property
But how would this happen in the case of Western civilization? How do evil spirits re-enter the house from which they were expelled? How will the gods return?
In biblical accounts of exorcisms, evil spirits are cast out by the word and power of God and the name and authority of Jesus. When the Roman Empire and Western civilization were delivered from the spirit world and the gods, it happened in the same way through the Word and power of God, and the name and authority of Jesus.
So how is it possible for evil spirits to return to Western civilization? There is only one way – if that civilization ever turns its back on God, on His Word, on the Gospel, on Christianity, on Jesus. If it does so, then the power to expel the evil spirits will no longer exist to protect it from the evil spirits’ return, and the civilization that was snatched away from them will be re-possessed by them. The gods will return.
Pre-Christianity and Post-Christianity
What happens then? According to this parable, a repossessed house ends up worse than when it started. From a world-historical perspective, this means: Post-Christian civilization will eventually fall into a darker state than pre-Christian civilization. If Western civilization turns its back on God, the consequences will be even darker and more dangerous than in pagan times.
It is no accident that the modern world, rather than the ancient world, has done the greatest evil to the world. It is no accident that when nations and civilizations that once knew God turn their back on the Christian faith they once embraced, what subsequently happens to them is often described as demonic.
Pre-Christian civilizations might have produced Caligula or Nero. But post-Christian civilization will produce Stalin or Hitler.
Pre-Christian societies may have given birth to barbarism, but post-Christian societies will give birth to darker descendants: fascism, communism, and Nazism.
A pre-Christian nation might erect a human altar. But post-Christian countries will build the Auschwitz incinerator.
For a nation or civilization that once knew God and was once free from gods, leaving God is the most dangerous thing. The gods will return it.
It is not up to us now to uncover the secrets behind the return of the many spirits to countries and powers like the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany, it and the gods. But this book is about unraveling the mystery behind the return of the spirit world in our time and in our own culture and civilization – the return of gods (evil spirits) to America and Western civilization, and by extension the world.
It is a mystery that touches us all, just as the work of spirits is now touching, changing and transforming the world around us.
What would the evil spirits do if they returned to the modern world and to the United States?
Is there an ancient template that might reveal the answer?
So what is the Dark Trinity?

Editorial Special Section: Nita Johnson: The Crucified People
Information: Nita Johnson Date: March 10, 2024 Source: World for Christ Ministries Video
Editor’s Note: This article is an outline of Nita’s message at Bethel Church.
- A new day has arrived . This is what He has spent thousands of years preparing for His people.
- Nita had been seeing a recurring vision before the meeting: the earth exploding, exploding with the glory of the Lord . Not a vision of glory coming, but the whole world exploding with glory.
- The Melchizedek Priests Have Been Released to the Earth : About a year or two ago, Nita saw that the Melchizedek Priests had been released to the earth, and we are now entering into the fruit of “this wonderful ministry that the Lord has released on the earth.”
The Crucified Ones
- At this moment, this group of people who were crucified are about to be released to the earth .
- Decades ago, Nita saw a vision of “a group of people being crucified”: bright beams of light and fire emanating from their hands, legs, and feet. They put on Christ. It really shocked her!
- They have been crucified. Their sinful nature has been removed. Their base nature has been burnt to ashes.
- In the eyes of the world, they are inconspicuous people.
- This group of people who were crucified were so highly refined that the shining light emanated from them, just like our Lord when he was transfigured on the mountain.
- 1/29/23 The Lord told Nita that He had released the preliminary stages of the Great Awakening in the church. That night, three brothers in Pastor Matthew’s church saw in the spirit that the Lord was preparing the vision of this church for this great awakening. Nita knew and understood that something was going on that was much more than that.
- One person saw three rows of carriages outside the church. They were waiting outside for the angels at work. They (angels) were preparing the earth to receive the watering of the Great Awakening. This was already a year ago. Some would say that the Great Awakening never really happened. However, when Mario Murillo was interviewed two days later, he also said that yes, the Great Awakening had been released to the earth. So we have a second witness. Then, what is so amazing is that the Lord manifested His presence in many universities and they experienced God’s outpouring. At least five churches also experienced it. People came from all over the world to participate.
The “spirit of conviction” was poured out on the earth
- The first stage of the Great Awakening is to prepare people’s hearts, which is to purify people’s hearts and souls through repentance. College students stand in front of their brothers and sisters and confess their sins and repent. So the foundation has been laid on it.
- A “spirit of conviction of sin” and a “broken and contrite heart” have descended upon the church and upon the earth. Some might say it doesn’t look like it has spread around the world, and Nita said we don’t know if it has. But she said that John the Baptist only served a total of six months on earth, but he had already prepared the world for Christ (accepting Christ). We don’t always understand the way God does things, do we? So the same thing happened in this Great Awakening𥚃. It didn’t calm down, it didn’t leave, it didn’t go anywhere.
Signs and wonders among the nations
- It will reappear in the world with signs and wonders. That’s what we’re going to see next.
- We’re going to see a great harvest of souls, we’re going to see a lot of healing and miracles, like a tsunami. You know that wave seems to be going backwards, backwards, away from the shore, and then continues to go backwards, backwards… We are now in the stage of such a wave (backward) . Then it will start to increase, increase, increase, and just like this, the big waves will come over again! So when this happens, we need to know that it is not a new run, but what is released in 2023.
- One year later on the same day ( 1/29/24 ) God told Nita: I am making preparations to release the “crucified people.” He still needs a little more time to prepare their lives and to prepare the church and people on earth to accept them.
- This “crucified people” are people whose light is always in them, just as it was while our Lord was alive on earth. Some people will manifest it, and some people will not. Some people sometimes don’t express it, and sometimes they do. How long had they been on the ground? Nita didn’t know.
- God has never touched the earth in this way, let alone a group of people like this. How many people are there? Nita doesn’t know. Are they like Moses? She doesn’t know either. She only knew that what this group of people did on earth in the name of Jesus would thwart the enemy’s plan to destroy the earth. One of the reasons is the prayers of intercessors. On the same day (1/29/24), Jesus typed a letter to Nita telling her to teach them God’s words from the perspective of “the crucified life.” Do this, and see the joyful things come alive in living color.
- He really wants to do everything he can to lead more people to walk in the crucified life.
- No matter what denomination you belong to, He will open His grace to all churches. It (revelation of truth) will slowly flow into every denominational church. Bring out those who are willing to pay the price. Not only will they walk in glory, they will also walk first in the gift of healing miracles. The service brought about by these people will be greatly shocking!
- Romans 8:2 (AMPC)For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has freed me from the law of sin and of death.
Romans 8:2 (Amplified Classical Version) For [it is] the life-giving Spirit in Christ Jesus [the law of our new creation] which makes us free from the law of sin and death.
Romans 8:3 For God has done what the Law could not do, [its power] being weakened by the flesh [the entire nature of man without the Holy Spirit]. Sending His own Son in the guise of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, [God] condemned sin in the flesh [subdued, overcame, deprived it of its power over all who accept that sacrifice], [Lev. 7:37.]
Romans 8:3 For God has done what the law could not [The power of the law] was weakened by the flesh [the whole nature of man without the Spirit]. God sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh as a sin offering to judge sin in the flesh [God] sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh. weaken, overcome, remove its power from all who accept the sacrifice]
Romans 8:4 So that the righteous and just requirement of the Law might be fully met in us who live and move not in the ways of the flesh but in the ways of the Spirit [our lives governed not by the standards and according to the
Romans 8:4 So that the righteousness and justice of the law
may be fulfilled for us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit [our Life is not controlled and directed by the standards of the flesh, but by the Holy Spirit].
principle of sin
- Jesus is fully God and fully human. How could His human part bear the sins of so many people?
- Key Point: He died to take away [the power of the sinful nature].
- The sinful nature is indeed an evil spirit. Because Adam sinned, this evil spirit gained the legal right to control mankind. Therefore, everyone in this world has a sinful nature [evil spirit].
- So the Lord made a way to take human [sinful nature] upon Himself on the cross. This sinful nature did not enter into Him, it was like a quilt placed on Him. He weakened its power, He defeated it.
- He takes away sin’s authority and power for those who will receive Him.
- He longs to eradicate the sinful nature of your soul. That evil spirit is trying every means to bring your soul to hell.
- Sin nature, we call it the center of the nature of sin, the principle of sin. It is an entity, an evil spirit, it is not part of your soul.
How to become a crucified man?
- You must be a Christian.
- You must be cleansed and cleansed of your sins. When you repent, God’s power to remove the root of your sin still has life. That sinful nature has been ripped out of you, completed to the point where it will come to a point in time, says the Lord, that now you are ready to be set free from the beast. They no longer have the right to live in you. This man becomes “a crucified man.” This man’s sinful nature has been crucified with Christ. This sinful nature is not yours in the first place. It has never been yours. It belongs to Satan.
Resurrection from the dead
- The Lord came to earth and for those who were willing to accept the sin offering of Christ, He removed the authority and power in the “law” that controlled their sins and set them free.
- When the Lord has taken away the power and power of sin for you, and it is about to be completed, there is one more step. No one knew it had to happen. That is, after the “sinful nature” was legally destroyed under the earth, what did Christ do? He died and was resurrected.
- He died and rose again. Who has ever heard of such a thing? What does that look like? what does that mean?
- He gives us the “legal” right to rise from the dead from the grave (this is salvation).
- How can a Christian gain the power of death and resurrection on earth?
- He has taken away the power of sin in you. If you will take full advantage of this opportunity, stop giving in to sin.
- Then “right now” you have the power of “death and resurrection” within you. Yes, you can have the power of resurrection from the dead now.
- Christ died and resurrected at a certain appointed time, but in Jesus’ service, we see the service brought about by the power of the glorious “resurrection from the dead.”
- Therefore, although He himself had not experienced resurrection from the dead at that time (he had to wait until a destined moment), He exercised this authority through His “death and resurrection” and He gave the world “the great power of death and resurrection”. able”.
- Who would tell you this? The Spirit of the Living God. Throughout the New Testament, not only does Paul teach these truths, but other disciples also speak of them:
- Romans 8:2-4
- Galatians 2:20, 6:14, 15, 17
- Psalm 27:11
So when you understand the principles that I’m going to bring out, you’ll start to read through these scriptures, and you’ll see these principles everywhere.
I (Nita) was taught by Jesus Christ Himself who appeared to me. So after that, I really couldn’t believe how many times the writers of the Bible spoke this truth. I have read a lot of Bibles, but I have never seen it. But when the Lord puts my focus on these truths and tells me what to look for and what to think about? I can see very clearly.
It is very sad that the church has not been fully brought into this revelation, but now that the revelation is here, we must not lose such a blessing, we must not refuse to believe, and we must not refuse to pay the price.
Many people like to hear the truth, but they are not too excited when it comes to actually doing it. What do we need to do? Stop committing crimes. He will help you, He will convict us of sin, and if He does not (at this time), we are not responsible, but once He convicts us, He expects us to do something.
- And we have the power and authority to do it, so we are so excited! That is, we can say no to sin if we want to; if we don’t, we must pay the price.
- So He sent Jesus to come to earth in the form of sinful flesh. He himself had no sin. He was sent to earth to deal with the sinful nature.
- He came to earth and offered his life as a living sacrifice to destroy the authority and power of sin. Finally “uproot” sin from your soul. Let us go one step further,
Nita’s practical experience of being crucified with the Lord
- First, the Lord placed “the desire to be crucified with Jesus” on Nita.
- One time Jesus appeared to her on the cross. Nita looked at Jesus and thought to herself: I must enter and be crucified with Him. I don’t know how to make this happen, I don’t know what I need to go through? But the thought that He was willing to do that for us means so much to me that I think I would pay any price to be crucified with Him. Why? Because the Bible constantly uses the word “crucified.” Paul uses the phrase “crucified together” many times in his letters. This is the destiny that each of us is called to enter. That’s why it’s so vivid in my mind. I have a great desire in my heart: to be crucified with the Lord.
- Co-crucifixion means: Christ crucified my sinful nature so that I can walk freely in holiness. How do you do it? How did you experience this? How do you endure it? What will it cost? What will you feel?
- How Nita completed her crucifixion with the Lord:
- Nita said: For me, at a specific moment, the Lord came to me and removed the “sinful nature” from me. Then not long after, the Lord appeared to Nita. The Lord hung on the cross. After everything he had been through, his body was completely destroyed.
- The Lord said to me: If anyone asks you: Have you been crucified with the Lord? Never tell them “no” because you have been through it all and you no longer have a sinful nature because that sinful nature has been crucified from you.
- How do I explain to anyone what happened?
- So Lord help me understand what I am about to tell you. Help me know how to explain to people what happens when our sinful nature is finally removed.
- What happens when a Christian is finally freed from this sinful nature? When you are finally freed from these aspects of sinful nature, you will feel so clean, even empty. You will feel cleansed.
- There was once a darkness within you, a darkness perhaps that you didn’t know how to describe to anyone, and now you feel that you have escaped that darkness. You are a Christian who loves the Lord with all your heart. How can there be darkness within you? But if He wants you to know, He will let you know.
- Just before my “crucifixion” happened, He let me know that darkness was there.
- Although He taught me a lot, teaching is just teaching until you actually experience it, otherwise teaching is just teaching, isn’t it? That’s just knowledge in your head. But when you actually experience it, it becomes a living fact.
- He has been preparing me for many, many years for me to go through this experience. He even told me that He would make me understand the different things I had to go through in order for my cross to produce what He wanted to produce. I would never invite anyone into the suffering He showed me, because it scared me so much that I didn’t know how to tell anyone.
- You become holy not because you are separated from the things of the world, but because His holiness is poured into you. There is a big difference.
- After the crucifixion was completed, His holiness was poured out upon you and His righteousness clothed you. Not by faith, but actually.
- Galatians 2:20 AMPC
I have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now live in the body I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance on and complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Galatians
2:20 Amplified Classic Version
I am crucified with Christ [in Him, crucified with Him Cross]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah)
who lives in me; the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith (cling, dependence, complete trust) in the Son of God, who is love Me, give yourself up for me.
Because of love, He desires to cleanse us
- He wants to cleanse this temple of ours because of love, because He desires to live in it. And after we are cleansed, in Him, we can cling to Him tightly by faith, and we can live in a very high degree. Obey Him.
- We will be shocked when He reveals this sin and that sin within us. But He told Nita that He exposed it in order to get rid of it.
- Nita wants us to have this truth so much:
- It is when this sinful nature disappears that “the life and law of sin and death” are removed.
- Sometimes we try so hard to live a righteous life before God, but we can almost feel like we are being held captive by some force, no matter how hard we try to fight it. If it (the evil spirit) has no way to get in, it will go through the back door. Have you ever had such an experience? This is “the life and law of sin and death.”
- What He wants is for you to be able to say that I have been crucified in Christ. Whatever is in me that is not of Christ is gone. Crucifixion is complete death, isn’t it?
- In Him I am crucified with Him, that is true. In Him, by Him, through Him, you share with Him the power of the crucifixion, so that you can be free. This (crucified) power is already within you, you just need to activate it . Is this possible? It is absolutely possible for those who are willing to pay the price. So He said, living is no longer me, how true this is. When you become a new creation, you can feel it. Not a day goes by that I don’t tell myself that although I live in this world now, I have no connection with this world.
- The difference between before and after getting rid of the sinful nature is like the difference between diving into the swimming pool and being outside the swimming pool. Do you understand?
In the Spirit, you have been taken away from this earthly world, you have been firmly placed in Him, He dwells firmly in you, and you feel the presence of the Lord of Heaven within you.
This is not a declaration of faith, thinking that if I declare it in faith enough times it will happen. This is not the case, this is my reality. Then Nita said, Jesus says to you, the church cannot have you. This world cannot have you. I want to have you. This King of kings has a special claim on you.
- Galatians 6:14 AMPC
But far be it from me to glory [in anything or anyone] except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) through Whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world!
Galatians Matthew 6:14 Amplified Classic Version But I will never boast in [anyone or anything] except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah), by whom the world was decreed for me
Galatians 6:15 For neither is circumcision [now] of any importance, nor uncircumcision, but [only] a new creation [the result of a new birth and a new nature in Christ Jesus, the Messiah].
Galatians 6:15 For [now] neither circumcision nor uncircumcision matters, but [only] a new creation that matters.
Galatians 6:17 From now on let no person trouble me [by making it necessary for me to vindicate my apostolic authority and the divine truth of my Gospel], for I bear on my body the [brand] marks of the Lord Jesus [the wounds, scars, and other outward evidence of persecutions–these testify to His ownership of me]!
Galatians 6:17 From now on no one troubles me [that I must defend my apostolic authority and the divine truth of my gospel], for I Carrying [such] marks of the Lord Jesus on my body [wounds, scars, and other outward evidence of persecution—which prove His ownership of me] is as if someone took a sword and effectively cut The spirit of that world. I didn’t know that I was connected to the spirit of the world until it was cut off. To the world, I was crucified. That means the world can’t have me, can’t hold me, and I can no longer be drawn by the spirit of the world to do what ordinary Christians do. He said to the world, you can’t have them anymore. They belong to me. - The second half of verse 15, “Becoming a new creation.” A new creation is one who puts on Christ and is possessed by Christ. His character now becomes our character, His mind becomes my mind, and His heart becomes my heart.
- We cannot have a thought that is not His thought. There is not a word that comes out that He does not speak through our mouths. We will not have a feeling that is not His feeling.
- He lives His life in you and through you. That’s substantial, not symbolic. That’s substantial. You walk in God’s love and in God’s faith. Walk in his character. Why? Because He owns you. You and Him have become one. It was a complete tranquility. A perfect resting place. It’s hard to get there, but once you get there your life is completely changed!

- Farm buildings miraculously legalized
- It’s an ending season
- This is a season of endings and new beginnings. Not only in the natural world, but also in the spiritual world.
- The Lord is wrapping up many of the missions from last season.
- You may feel a little nervous because you know your time in this particular field is coming to an end. However, you may not feel like you have accomplished the task or that everything is going as you hoped/planned. But the Lord still says, “Well done!” You have faithfully stewarded all that the Lord has given you. You did everything you could with the resources and time you had.
- Listen again to “Well done!”
- Don’t procrastinate excessively and try to get everything out of the way. Some problems may not be solved yet, and some tasks may not be completed. You may not be able to completely close the case. It doesn’t matter. When God clearly opens the door of exit for you…walk through it.

It’s time to get ready
- I know you have been waiting for a long time. It feels like you’re constantly going in circles. Caught in a cycle of false hope and disappointment. I always feel that I am close to success, but I never see it coming true.
- Wilderness brings exhaustion. I know you are confused and frustrated.
- It’s a long and lonely road. But you kept at it, stayed the course, and now you’re reaching the threshold. It’s time to act!
Get Ready
- You will begin to see glimpses of the other side.
- Where you struggle to sense what lies ahead, I will impart to you new perspectives and spiritual sight.
- Your eyes will be opened. Your spiritual awareness will be awakened.
- You will begin to imagine possibilities and potential.
- You are about to reach the crossing point. But first, you must be prepared.
- I know you think you are ready. But there are still some things that are not ready. In your walk with Me, in your relationships, and in other areas of your life.
- You’ve been avoiding difficult conversations. You keep putting off necessary decisions. You keep running away from what you know you need to do. You have been clinging to what I told you to release and let go of.
- You can’t take them with you. They can hinder your progress. You already know this. Let them be.
Be Prepared
- There will be a clear signal telling you that it is time to act. But the opportunity was short-lived. So, you cannot be passive or indecisive. Act quickly. Act bravely. Boldly.
- Step in, move on, cross over. Go fully in, embrace the new, and find your feet. Don’t stand still and don’t be satisfied with “almost there.” Leave behind the dust of last season, the things you lost and the people who left you.
- You have waited too long to miss this moment. You have been selected, pruned, suppressed, and prepared. Now, prepare to embark on the road of promise.
- Be prepared. it’s time
- “God has a way forward”! Don’t rely on your own understanding/intelligence… “Lean on Him” – Jesus will take you where you need to go! God already knows you will stand in this moment. You feel overwhelmed and highly concerned, yet God has a way forward. He always has it, and He always is willing to (arrange it).
- Prophetic Word – When you are at the center of your assignment, exponential provision and grace will flow to you. God will make all grace and all prosperity abundant in your life because He fully equips you for every good work. Commit to your destiny…and watch the finances and favors flow in!
- But here is someone who needs to get out of your head space and into your place of prayer. Get out of your mind and pursue your mantle/mantle. Some things only happen when you pray…and some things are only released when you pray. This is a prophecy for someone! God wants you to hear this for a reason – open your mouth and talk to God! This is your season of advancement and initiation, in the name of Jesus!
- (2 Corinthians 9:8) God is able to make all grace abound toward you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.
- (Matthew 7:7) “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.”
Command
- God has more words to say in Leviticus than in any other book, did you know that? 90% of Leviticus are words spoken by God himself. God said to Moses… There is no other book in the Bible that records so many words spoken by God himself. If you want to read the words of God himself, you can start with Leviticus, because you will read the words of God himself.
- The first seven chapters talk about sacrifices and sacrifices, the final unit (chapters 26-27) talks about punishments and the oaths of the people; and the detailed description of the priesthood (chapters 8-10) corresponds to the respect they should have. worship and how the people should be led in worship (chapters 23-25); but here are two major distinctions that God’s people must understand, the difference between clean and unclean (chapters 11-15), and the difference between holy and unholy (chapters 11-15). Chapter 17-22)
- This book can be divided into two parts, before the Day of Atonement and after the Day of Atonement. From a Christian perspective, the first part describes how we come to God, which is “justification” in biblical terms; the second part describes how we walk with God, which is “justification” in biblical terms. That is, “sanctification.”
Four chapters of Schalshelet’s courage in facing an identity crisis
- The first example occurs in the story of Lot. After Lot separated from Abraham, he settled in Sodom. There he blended in with the local population. Married his daughter to a local man. Then two visitors came and told him to leave because God was about to destroy the city. But Lot hesitated and hesitated. The word “hesitant” is a shalshelet ( Genesis 19:16 ). He invested his entire future in the new identity he forged for himself and his daughters. The angels then force him out of the city – if they don’t, he will delay until it’s too late.
- The second shalshelet occurs. This happened when Abraham asked his servant (traditionally called Eliezer) to find a wife for his son Isaac. Eliezer was deeply conflicted about his mission. If Isaac did not marry and have children, Abraham’s estate would eventually pass to Eliezer and his descendants. Abraham said before Isaac was born: “Abram said, “O Lord God, what will you give me, since I have no son? And the one who will inherit my inheritance is Eliezer the Damascusite.” ( Genesis 15:2) . If Eliezer had succeeded in his mission to bring back a wife for Isaac, and if the couple had children, his chances of one day acquiring Abraham’s wealth would have been completely eliminated. Two instincts were at war within him: loyalty to Abraham and personal ambition. Genesis 24:12 He said, O LORD, the God of my master Abraham, be gracious to my master Abraham, and give me a good opportunity today.
- The third shalshalet takes us to Egypt and the life of Joseph. He was sold into slavery by his brothers and worked in the house of Potiphar in Egypt. Left alone at home with his master’s wife, she tried to seduce Joseph. He refused. He said that to do such a thing would be to betray his master, her husband. This is a sin against God. However, “Joseph did not obey, he refused” is a shalshelet, showing that – he did so with considerable struggle. He almost gave in. Because this is not just a conflict between sin and temptation. It’s a conflict of identities. Recall that Joseph lived in a strange new land. His brothers rejected him. They’ve made it clear they don’t want him to be part of their family. So why shouldn’t he do in Egypt what the Egyptians did? Why not submit to his master’s wife if this is what she wants? Joseph’s question was not just “Is this right?” but also, ” Am I an Egyptian or a Jew? ” Genesis 39:8 But Joseph refused to obey and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master does not do any of the housework.” Know; He has put everything into my hands.
- Three paragraphs are about inner conflict, and three paragraphs are about identity. Each of us is faced with a challenge and must make a decision, not just “What will I do?” but “Who will I become?” This is especially important for leaders, which brings us to the fourth paragraph, Moses was the protagonist of this incident.
- When we face inner conflicts and make choices, we should also ask ourselves who this decision makes me become? Not just what should I do.
Leadership Test
The fourth shalshalet
- After the incident with the golden calf, Moses instructed the Israelites at God’s command to build the Tabernacle, which would become God’s permanent symbolic home among the people. At this point the work was done, all that remained was for Moses to install his brother Aaron and Aaron’s sons. He dressed Aaron in the special garments of the high priest, anointed him with oil, and performed various sacrifices according to the occasion. Moses had an inner conflict. But what is that? There is no hint in the text that he is going through a crisis. Leviticus 8:23 And he killed the sheep. Moses put some blood on the lobe of Aaron’s right ear, on the thumb of his right hand, and on the big toe of his right foot,
- If you think about it for a moment, it becomes clear what the inner struggle of Moses was. He leads the Jewish people to this day. Aaron assisted him, accompanying him on his missions against Pharaoh, serving as his spokesman, assistant, and deputy. Now, however, Aaron is about to take on a new leadership role in his own right. He would no longer be one step behind Moses. He would do things that Moses himself could not do. He would preside over the daily sacrifices in the tabernacle. He would set out the work, the Israelites’ sacred service to God. Once a year on the Day of Atonement, he performed a service to atone for the sins of the people. No longer living in the shadow of Moses, Aaron was about to become the kind of leader Moses was never destined to be: a high priest.
- What these four stories tell us is that there comes a time when each of us must make a final decision about our identity. This is a moment of true decision-making. Lot was a Hebrew, not a citizen of Sodom. Eliezer was Abraham’s servant, not his heir. Joseph was the son of Jacob, not a morally corrupt Egyptian. Moses was a prophet, not a priest. To say yes to who we are, we must have the courage to say no to who we are not. There is always pain and struggle in this inner conflict. This is what shalshelet means. Have the courage to face your inner conflicts.
See yourself as being in line with the mean
- Good leaders know their limits. They don’t try to do everything. They build teams. They create space in their areas of weakness for those who are stronger than them. They understand the importance of checks and balances and separation of powers. There were some things that Moses could not do. He will never become a priest. This task fell to Aaron. He would never lead his people across the Jordan. That was Joshua’s role. If Moses was to be honest with himself, he had to bravely accept these two truths. Great leaders must be honest with themselves if they are to be honest with those they lead.
- Leaders should never try to be all things to all people. Leaders should be content to be themselves. Leaders must have the ability to know what they cannot be before they have the courage to truly become the best version of themselves.
- This week’s Torah is about devotions of all kinds. But when read with the prophets, the content of Jeremiah is almost exactly the opposite: Jeremiah 7:22-23 For I did not speak of burnt offerings or sacrifices of peace offerings in the day that I brought your ancestors out of the land of Egypt, nor did I command them them. This is all I commanded them: Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. You will be blessed if you walk in all the ways I command you.
- This seems to indicate that sacrifice was not God’s original intention for the Israelites. It seems to negate the essence of this week’s Torah .
- What does it mean? The simplest explanation is that it means “not only did I give them commands concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Although I gave commands, they are not the entirety of the law, nor are they even the main purpose of God. Jeremiah 9:24 But he who boasts boasts in his understanding, that he knows that I am the LORD, and that I delight in lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth. this is what Jehovah said.
- This is the great thing about Israel’s faith. It is a choral symphony with music for many voices. This is a check and balance between different viewpoints. Without detailed laws, there would be no sacrifices. In biblical times it was impossible to get close to God without sacrifice. But if there are only sacrifices but no prophetic voice, then people may serve God while mistreating their fellow man. They may think they are righteous, but in fact they are just self-righteous.
- The priestly voice heard in this week’s Torah tells us what giving is and how to do it. The prophet’s voice tells us why. They are like the left and right hemispheres of the brain; such is the complexity and richness of Israelite faith that, placing the voices of the priests and prophets together, we see that the ritual was a moral training. Repeated performance of sacred acts reconfigures the brain, restructures personality, and reshapes our emotions. Outward actions influence inner feelings. ■The Torah and accompanying prophetic books, the voices of priests and prophets, bring balance to faith. We hear how to act and why. Without Torah, action is incomplete; without why, action is blind. Combine priestly detail with prophetic vision and you have a great spiritual life.
The priest need to have the smell of earthen smoke
- Leviticus 8:33 You shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of the congregation for seven days, until the days of your ordination are fulfilled, for the Lord has given you seven days of ordination.
- 【New Translation】Leviticus 8:33 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting for seven days, until the days of your ordination are fulfilled, for the Lord will use these seven days to ordain you. as “He fills your hands”).
- Leviticus 8:35 For seven days you must stay at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting day and night, and keep the commandment of the LORD, so that you do not die, for this is what I was commanded.
- Leviticus 6:12a The fire on the altar shall always burn on it and shall not be quenched. …

- Leviticus 6:18 …whosoever touches these sacrifices shall be sanctified.

Pray for America: Prophetic Warning: Baltimore Bridge
Editor’s Note: This article is excerpted from the post of David Kubal by Intercessors for America from March 30, 2024.
This week may turn out to be an historic prophetic juncture in the relationship of the United States and Israel and in the trajectory of the nation. It starts with a spiritual law dating back to the call of Abram:
“I will make you (Abram) a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Gen. 12:2-3; Num. 24:9)
Our nation, which claims strong biblical roots, and which has richly enjoyed God’s blessings since its founding, cannot hope to escape God’s righteous judgments when we and our leaders’ sin.
Time and time again, we have witnessed throughout our national history that disasters occur when we stop blessing Israel. This includes when U.S. leaders seek to pressure Israel to divide its land or cede any part of Jerusalem, the city where God has chosen to put His name (1 Kings 11:13, 32). William Koenig, trusted Israel expert and author of Eye to Eye: Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel, has chronicled these disasters and their intimate link with U.S. foreign policy cursing Israel. Koenig was recently interviewed and gave a great summary of the evidence for this correlation.
By the way, this is not specific to the United States. There are many examples throughout Israel’s biblical history showing that when the leaders sinned, violating God’s covenants and commandments, the people of Israel suffered with invasion, plagues, and other disasters, ultimately causing Israel to be scattered throughout the earth.
This Week’s Prophetic Timeline
- Friday, March 22, 2024. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned that a major Rafah operation by the IDF could result in global isolation and long-term security harm for Israel. Coronal mass ejection (CME) exploded alongside a solar flare.
- Saturday, March 23, 2024. Geomagnetic storm watch issued by NOAA, announcing a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the sun that would have impact through Monday.
- Sunday, March 24, 2024. Vice President Kamala Harris refuses to rule out “consequences” for Israel, including arms embargoes and international isolation, if Israel goes ahead with actions in Rafah to stop Hamas.
- Monday, March 25, 2024. In a meeting with Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Blinken reiterated U.S. opposition to a major operation in Rafah. Then, the United Nations Security Council unanimously passed a resolution demanding an Israeli ceasefire for the rest of the Muslim holiday of Ramadan (now through April 8, 2024). No requirement for the release of all hostages was linked to this resolution even though it had been in the past. The United States abstained rather than using its veto and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately cancelled plans to send a delegation to the United States to discuss plans for the operation in Rafah. Within hours a worldwide geomagnetic storm from the CME hit.
- 1:27 a.m. Tuesday, March 26, 2024. The Francis Scott Key bridge over Baltimore harbor collapsed after being struck by a cargo ship whose guidance system was affected by the geomagnetic storm. (The cargo ship was carrying hazardous materials that were breached by the impact).
Was the bridge collapse an example of consequences for cursing Israel?
The Francis Scott Key Bridge that collapsed over the outer Baltimore Harbor was named after the American lawyer, author, and poet best known as the writer of the text of the American national anthem “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
The circumstances of the writing of the song are important. It was 1814, during the War of 1812. (That may seem wrong, but the conflict actually spanned from 1812 to 1815.) Key was watching the British bombardment of Fort McHenry from a ship moored in Baltimore, basically where the Key Bridge was.
As morning broke, he was full of joy that America had not succumbed to the British forces. He was deeply encouraged to see the American flag still flying over the fort at dawn. He quickly wrote the first verse on the back of the letter and by the end of four days completed the entire poem, which he titled, “Defence of Fort M’Henry.” It was published within a week with the suggested tune of the popular song “To Anacreon in Heaven.”
The song with Key’s lyrics became known as “The Star-Spangled Banner” and slowly gained in popularity as an unofficial anthem, finally achieving official status more than a century later under President Herbert Hoover.
The first verse of “The Star-Spangled Banner” is well known and worth reading slowly here again.
Oh, say! can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming;
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:
Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
Does the Star-Spangled Banner yet wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
For thus says the LORD of hosts: “He sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye” (Zechariah 2:8).
Essentially the leaders of the United States publicly betrayed Israel at the UN and are putting mounting pressure on Israel for a two-state solution. The public statements demonstrating this are numerous. The evidence indicates that these actions are bringing a Genesis 3 curse on our nation.
When any nation touches the Holy One of Israel in the apple of God’s eye (Deut. 32:10). Our God is not a God who will allow Himself to be mocked (Gal.6:7) and nations as well as individuals reap what they sow. God will remove His hand of protection, not causing disaster and destruction, but not stopping it, as we step out from under His protection by violating His covenants and His will. It is His mercy that allows us to respond in repentance.
The Star-Spangled Banner has four verses. The final stanza, which is rarely, if ever, talked about, is stunning.
O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with vict’ry and peace may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto – “In God is our trust,”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Key knew the secret of the prevailing success of the fledgling United States of America. The secret is to respond to blessing and victory with praise to God: “Praise the power that hath made and preserv’d us a nation!” He had no doubt about how the forces had made it through that night in 1814, or the decades before — it was God!
Then, from where do we derive our ability to conquer and how do we know as a nation that our cause is just? Because “in God is our trust.” Key declared that this nation’s relationship with God would be the source of success and victory. Acknowledging the God who made and preserved the nation, and putting trust in Him enabled the triumphs of the nation. The flag represents all of that spiritual truth and all of the purposes God has for this nation.
Yet, here we are, 212 years later. Our nation’s leaders do not praise the power that made and preserved us. Our nation’s leaders fight declaration of the national motto, “In God We Trust.” Our nation’s leaders are cursing Israel and actively working against God’s purposes and plans for Israel.
Consequences are a mercy and grace of God to wake this nation up and return us to the core principles that founded us: God’s power made and preserves us and our success and victory only comes as we declare our trust in Him.
Like the “freemen” in Key’s poem, intercessors “stand between their lov’d home and the war’s desolation!” We seek the Lord for His purposes for America in the midst of a spiritual battle. We pray and contend for God’s purposes for the nation and for our nation’s relations with Israel no matter how bleak it seems.
Issues for intercession
- We must pray for the Biden Administration to support the effort of the State of Israel to defend itself against an aggressor who is committed to its annihilation. We also pray that the Administration will repent of its current foreign policies of dividing the land and manipulating Israel through threats of isolation and arms embargoes.Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart to all generations (Ps. 33:8-11).
- Pray for American leaders to have Daniels, Josephs, and Esthers as advisors. Pray for repentant hearts and the fear of Lord for leaders knowing that our nation will suffer the consequences of their decisions and they will one day give account. (Joel 3:1-3 and Gen. 12:3)
- Pray for the leaders of the Jewish people and for all Israel to receive revelation, discernment, and divine strategies on how to respond to international threats. And he shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel: Today you are on the verge of battle with your enemies. Do not let your heart faint, do not be afraid, and do not tremble or be terrified because of them; for the Lord your God is He who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.’ (Deut. 20:3-4).
- Pray for the physical rescue of the hostages, approximately 134 Israelis (including babies) kidnapped by Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and Palestinian Liberation Organization. Hamas is holding onto many corpses as bargaining chips. And the LORD spoke to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me (Ex. 8:1).
Father, we know that Your mercy triumphs over judgment. As we move into the celebration of the resurrection of Yeshua, Israel’s Messiah, we ask for mercy on the United States and her leaders. Let Your kindness lead to repentance and heal our land. In Yeshua’s name we pray. Amen.

We need to pray, watch, listen, watch, and like the children of Issachar, know the times and seasons. The following prayers are from the 24 prayers in “Elijah’s List”,which was reposted from the prophet Charlie Shamp’s facebook. We encourage all intercessors to pray for the United States under the leadership of Holy Spirit.

Pray for America: PRAYERS AND DECREES FOR THE PROTECTION OF AMERICA’S WATERWAYS
Editor’s Note: This article comes from the “Give Him 15 Minutes” website of intercession leader Dutch Sheets , which provides a reference for intercessors from various states to pray for American waterways. May the Holy Spirit lead the intercessors to accomplish this critical task of restoring America.
【Prayer】
Father, You have assigned us to pray for protection over America’s water supply, waterways, and dams. Your Word tells us that unless You keep or guard a city, the efforts of watchmen are in vain (Psalm 127:1). Therefore, we look to You for protection – You are our refuge, a very present help in times of trouble (Psalm46:1). When You are for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31)? You save us from our enemies, men of bloodshed who do iniquity (Psalm 59:1-2). You are theCreator and Owner of the entire world – all of its inhabitants, as well as the seas and rivers. You are the King of glory, the Lord strong and mighty in battle, and the Lord of angel armies (Psalm 24:1,7,8,10). As a Master Workman, You set the boundaries for the seas and drew the tributaries of the earth (Proverbs 8:29-30), and still maintain ownership and authority over them.
We know, Father, that we always have access to Your throne of grace through Yeshua (John 14:13-14; Hebrews 4:16). However, in the dream, we were given coins referencing our authority for this specific assignment. They included the words “Official Pass,” the Cross engraved onto an arrowhead, and the U.S. seal. The blood of Jesus (the Cross) is our official pass, giving us authority to accomplish this assignment. Yet, it was engraved onto the arrowhead, which in Scripture pictures deliverance and victory (2 Kings 14:14-19) – our “deliverance” from evil is in the power and blood of Jesus. However, we believe You are also reminding us of the 300 arrowheads, 5 of which were buried in each state after being anointed with oil by First Nations believers. As our First Nations friends prayed over the oil, they were led to declare Isaiah 60, verse 18: “Violence will not be heard again in your land, nor devastation or destruction within your borders, but you will call your walls salvation, and your gates praise.” Our covenant with You, Lord, through the Cross, also joins us in covenant with our First Nations brothers and sisters. We believe You are cleansing America of past sins, healing her of broken covenants and relational wounds, and giving us a future filled with hope (Jeremiah 29:11). The coin reminds us of this.
To You, Lord, nothing is hidden; You reveal and expose secret plans and agendas (Matthew 10:26; Luke 8:17). We ask that any foreign or domestic plans to harm our dams, waterways, and water supply will be revealed and thwarted before they are carried out. Expose every plot to restrict our supply lines, hinder our power sources, or tamper in any way with our water supplies, dams, or waterways. Prevent the theft of weapons, extortion, and all that would assist terrorist activities. Frustrate the plans of the crafty to keep their plans from succeeding (Job 5:12), and create disunity and confusion among them (Judges 7:22).
Prevent those bent on doing evil from infiltrating critical positions of influence in our nation. Expose all corruption and confusion that would delay the rooting out of terrorism (Luke 12:2-3). Protect and give wisdom, discernment, and intelligence to all those involved in the search for terrorists: police departments, Homeland Security and their partners, the FBI, border agents, and guards at dams and waterway entrances. Open their eyes, direct their steps, and reveal the whereabouts of all those bent on doing evil. Weed out and expose any in positions of authority who may be involved in aiding or advancing terrorism from within. Protect us from cyber-attacks. Contend with those who contend with us (Isaiah 49:25), cause evil to “bow down
before the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous” (Proverbs 14:19). We ask that Holy Spirit would hover over the dams and waterways of our nation, just as He did the waters of the earth in Genesis 1:2, releasing life and blessing. Arise over us, God, and cause every enemy to be scattered (Psalm 68:1).
【DECREES】
Father, we know that as Holy Spirit was hovering over the waters at creation, Jesus was declaring life-giving words (Genesis 1:3-25; John 1:1-3). As His Ekklesia, His representatives, we now declare and decree His Words over our water supply, waterways, and dams:
- We decree that the powerful and majestic voice of the Lord thunders upon America’s waters, blessing them with peace (Psalm 29:3-4,11).
- We declare peace and security within our nation’s walls; violence will no more be heard in our land, devastation or destruction within our borders; our walls are salvation and our gates praise (Psalm 122:7; Isaiah 60:18).
- We declare that God is a wall of fire around our nation, and His glory is in our midst. He is our hiding place; we are protected from trouble because He surrounds us with songs of deliverance, and His angels encamp around
- The Lord keeps us from harm by day and by night, watching over our coming and going from now and forever (Zechariah 2:5; Psalm 32:7; Psalm
121:5-8).
- We decree, by faith in God and His Word, that every dam, waterway, and water supply in [insert name of your state] and all of America is protected and shielded from evil. No evil plot planned or devised against them will succeed; every snare is broken. We will not fear, and terror will not come near us (Isaiah 54:14 AMP; Isaiah 54:17; Psalm 21:11; Psalm 124:7).
- We decree Proverbs 21:22 (TPT) over America: “A warrior filled with wisdom ascends into the high place and releases regional breakthrough, bringing down the strongholds of the mighty.” Therefore, we decree the tearing down of every hidden stronghold of the enemy over America’s dams, waterways, and water supply and release breakthroughs in every region.
- We declare Isaiah 58:11 over America, that she is a well-watered garden, whose waters do not fail.
- Read and declare Psalm 91.
【RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EACH STATE】
- In the dream, each state representative was given a hand-carved staff. In Old Testament times, men’s staffs were hand-carved with pictures representing their history and testimonies of God‘s faithfulness. We encourage intercessors in each state to use their state’s history, specifically the preamble to its constitution, in a prayer or decree.
- We also encourage intercessors to consider using the book The Prophetic Destiny of A Nation, praying and declaring God’s prophesied destiny over their individual state.
- We also want to point out that there are several nuclear silos for our military in the Northwest and Plains states, two parts of the nation especially highlighted in the dream. We encourage intercessors in these states to remember this as they pray. Holy Spirit will guide you as you do so.
- One of our team members wrote the following decree for the states through which the Mississippi River flows. However, the decree can be used not only for those states, but also could be easily adapted for any major river:
Lord we thank You for the main artery of the Mississippi River, called also the “Father of Waters” and “America’s River, running 2,350 miles through our nation from northern Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico. In the name of Jesus, we ask that angels protect everything regarding this river. We bind all attempts to obstruct the petroleum, agricultural, and other commercial items it carries. We decree that no destruction shall come to its flood control structures & pumping systems, and that no attempts at cyber disruption of refineries, chemical plants, or the computer networks that regulate the barges will succeed. We declare Ezekiel 32:14 that the waters of the Mississippi run deep and smooth like oil, that all along its banks is blessed, and all of its ports are prosperous.
In conclusion, Father, consider the threats against America and give Your people boldness to speak Your Word. Stretch out Your hand to heal our land and people, performing signs, wonders, and miracles, for Your glory (Acts 4:29). Breathe upon the intercessors with words, travail, groans, cries, songs and decrees to govern with Your power (Romans 8:26-27; Psalm 149). In Yeshua’s name, Amen.

Pray for Israel: UN ceasefire resolution and hostage release
【 Current events background: Last Monday (3/25), the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution requiring Israel and Hamas to immediately cease fire in the Gaza Strip and immediately and unconditionally release all hostages. The United States abstained from voting in this vote.
There will be no direct impact on the ongoing war in Gaza
This is the first time since the war broke out in October that the United Nations Security Council has passed a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. It is reported that the case is non-binding and is not expected to have a direct impact on the ongoing war in Gaza . Israel is widely expected not to comply with the resolution’s call for a ceasefire, and Hamas is not expected to comply with its demand for the immediate and unconditional release of 134 hostages. In fact, although Israel is a party to the United Nations Charter and will face sanctions if it does not comply with the resolution, the United States is unlikely to allow the Security Council to impose sanctions if Israel does not comply with the resolution because the United States emphasizes that the resolution is not binding.
Israel’s international standing takes symbolic blow
However, since the 10/7 Hamas raid (nearly six months), this resolution does deal a symbolic blow to Israel’s international standing and seems to highlight that relations between the United States and Israel have reached a new low. Subsequently, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin. Netanyahu announced that he would cancel the Israeli delegation’s plan to visit the United States. Originally, at the request of the United States, Israel sent a delegation to Washington to discuss the Rafah ground attack plan, but Israel said it would cancel the trip after the United Nations resolution.
Co-sponsors of the resolution
The co-sponsors of the resolution adopted by the United Nations Security Council are Algeria, Ecuador, Guyana, Japan, Malta, Mozambique, South Korea, Sierra Leone, and Slovakia. Vigna and Switzerland, the sponsors tried to include the term “permanent and sustainable ceasefire” in the proposal, but were rejected by the United States. The final resolution used the term “permanent and sustainable ceasefire.”
Although this is the first resolution passed by the UN Security Council calling for a ceasefire, the Security Council also passed two other resolutions aimed at “increasing assistance to Gaza” and “calling for an extension of the ceasefire.” The resolution “acknowledges” ongoing negotiations to reach a hostage deal, but does not link those talks to the ceasefire it calls for in Gaza. The resolution ” calls for an immediate ceasefire between the two sides during the holy month of Ramadan, leading to a lasting and sustainable ceasefire, and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages .”
Statement from the United States
The White House said at a press conference: “This is a non-binding resolution and will have no impact on Israel’s continued pursuit of Hamas.” South Korea and other member states appear to hold the same position. Algeria, Malta, Mozambique and the Republic of Lion Island have all disputed this explanation, but the White House explanation carries more weight given that the United States can prevent member states from sanctioning Israel for non-compliance with the resolution.
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda. Thomas-Greenfield said she believed an abstention vote would be enough, mainly because the resolution did not condemn Hamas. She reiterated the U.S. position that “an immediate ceasefire can be reached if Hamas releases the hostages,” and urged Security Council members to condemn and pressure Hamas.
The White House asserted that the U.S. abstention “does not represent a change in policy.” I am very disappointed that Israel has canceled its decision to send representatives to Washington to discuss the plan of action against Rafah because of the agreement .
Israel’s response
Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations condemned the resolution passed by the Security Council for not specifying “the release of hostages” as a condition for a ceasefire. He said it was unhelpful to the hostage negotiations because the resolution allowed Hamas terrorists to achieve their ceasefire aspirations without releasing the hostages.
Hamas praises resolution
Hamas, meanwhile, praised the resolution, calling for “a permanent ceasefire, the withdrawal of all Israeli forces from Gaza, and the return of displaced refugees to their homes.” Hamas also expressed its willingness in a statement to “immediately Participate in a prisoner exchange process to free prisoners of war on both sides.”
Hostage negotiations are still ongoing
Israel accuses Hamas of making unrealistic demands, including requiring Israel to “end the war” as a condition for releasing the hostages.

Praying for Israel: Prayer Guide Against Anti-Semitism
The atrocities committed by Hamas and various terrorist allies against the nation of Israel on Oct. 7 seem to be a plumb line or water shed event on the earth, with nations dividing for or against the nation of Israel (see Joel 3:1–2). Former allies have become enemies in the public square. Since that day, the number of pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel/antisemitic events worldwide has increased dramatically. The spirit of Antichrist manifesting as the spirit of Amalek (see Exodus 17:8–16) is coming unmasked.
Antisemitism is a spiritual condition — a manifestation of the spirit of Amalek and Antichrist through people and organizations. It is in fact hatred of Jesus, the Jewish Messiah. How can we pray as followers of Messiah and as supporters of Israel and the Jewish people?
To begin, ask Holy Spirit to search your own heart and repent of any known antisemitism in you or your generational line. This would include prejudices, antisemitic jokes, and off-color remarks. Then stand in the gap and repent of any known antisemitic acts that occurred in your city, state, or nation. These unrepented sins open the door for the spirit of Antichrist and Amalek to have a foothold in your city, state, and even in your home and family. Repenting and being filled with His truth will protect and arm you for battle as you pray against antisemitism.
- Protection: Pray for the protection of Jewish people worldwide and especially for the nation of Israel. Pray for the Israel Defense Forces as they seek to eradicate the presence and power base of Hamas in Gaza, Judea, and Samaria (misleadingly called the West Bank), and throughout Israel (see Psalm 121:1; 122:6–9).
- Plans and Plots: Pray that all campaigns, plans, threats, or strategies against the Jewish people worldwide and in the land of Israel — whether at the hands of individuals, groups, or nations — are prevented or exposed before they can cause harm (see Psalm 83:1–8; 35; 20:6–9).
- Truth: Pray for a halt to the spread of lies and prejudices that fuel antisemitism. Pray that the true biblical history of Israel, its irrevocable covenant that includes the land, and the accurate history of so-called “Palestinians” will be reported and taught. This requires that the blindness would be lifted off those who believe and perpetuate these false ideologies. Lies must be replaced by truth, and that requires a revelation to the mind and heart. Remember that truth is a Person! (see 2 Thessalonians 2:10; Colossians 3:9).
- The Media: Pray for correction of media bias, where the supposed “crimes” of Israel are exaggerated, overreported, and emphasized, while similar activities by other nations and groups receive little or no notice or censure. Ask God to create an earnest search for truth in reporting, and that it would replace prejudice, lies, and sensationalism. Bind the prince of the power of the air, who is Satan, the father of lies. Release the Spirit of Truth, who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. And encourage your heart with all the testimonies of terrorists coming to Christ! (see John 8:32,44; 16:8–11; Ephesians 2:2).
- Culpability of the Church: Replacement theology and unbiblical understanding of Israel’s role in redemption has been around for hundreds of years. The belief that Israel’s redemptive purpose is over, or that Israel has lost favor with God and has been replaced by the Church, is firmly embedded in many parts of the body of Christ and is taught in seminaries and bible colleges. This erodes biblical support for Israel and earnest prayer for Jewish people to be saved. Pray for a hunger in church leaders to know God’s perspective on Israel and the Jewish people from His Word alone. Pray for God’s heart for Israel and the Jewish people to be clearly articulated by pastors, Bible scholars, and seminaries. May the Lord shift entire denominations toward truth and create a worldwide wave of passionate advocates and protectors who are willing to stand against antisemitism in all forms and lay down their lives, like Ruth, for God’s chosen people (see Ruth 1:16–18; Romans 11).
- Justice Movements: Some compassion and justice movements misguidedly see Israel as the malevolent actor in every encounter and see the Palestinians exclusively as down-trodden victims. This viewpoint is prevalent even among several Christian groups lured by persuasive and emotional rhetoric and an unbiblical definition of justice. God’s justice is always paired with righteousness and truth (see Psalm 89:14; 33:5). The UN perpetuates this evil doctrine and its proclamations are eagerly taken up and parroted by media and politicians worldwide. Pray that a balanced view of God’s heart and a correct theology will change those who earnestly desire to do the right thing by shifting them away from trendy philosophies and movements toward righteous thoughts and deeds that reflect God’s commands. Declare Psalm 33:10–11: The Lord frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes. But the Lord’s plans stand firm forever; His intentions can never be shaken.
- College and University Campuses: The types of movements mentioned above, many of which blatantly promote anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian sentiment, are the norm on most college and university campuses. An entire nation and people group are being wrongly judged by a repeated ideology rooted in antisemitism and lies. The Free Palestine movement is one example. On many college campuses, this group is allowed freedom of speech, while Jewish groups are disallowed or shut down. This breeds and perpetuates antisemitic thinking under the guise of justice. Pray that young adults and those they look to as they develop their worldview will not be swept up into views that are “trending,” but will instead seek and take a stand for truth as it is found in God’s Word. It is a fearsome prospect that these individuals may end up cursing God and falling under His judgment (see John 8:31–32; 14:6; 17:17).
- Groups and Dogmas: Traditional antisemitic groups are emerging again, in new “packaging.” One example would be neo-Nazism. Of course, an even more dangerous global threat is radical Islam, which is targeting Jewish people around the world out of pure hatred and religious furor. They have a very specific agenda, and we must be in prayer against it! They say: “First the Saturday people; then the Sunday people” (Jerusalem World News). This refers to their plan to forcefully convert or eliminate first the Jewish people and then the Christians. The Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad terrorist groups call Israel the “Little Satan” and the United States the “Big Satan.” Their rallying cry is: “From the River to the Sea, Palestine shall be free!” — which is calling for the eradication of Israel and all Jewish inhabitants in the land of Israel from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. Pray that these groups will lose members and momentum. We as the Body of Messiah must not be asleep, but rather vigilant in prayer, as we are commanded to be in Scripture, for both Israel and our own nations (see Isaiah 62:6–8).
God’s Heart: In Jeremiah 32:37–41, God reveals His long-term plan for His chosen people, the Jews. His plan is to regather them from all the nations to which they’ve been scattered and to cleanse them of their sin. They will be His people, and He will be their God. This is the only place in Scripture where He determines to act with all of His heart and all of His soul. He says elsewhere that He will send first fishers and then hunters (see Jeremiah 16:16). This is a difficult Bible passage for our flesh, but God’s ways are not our ways, and neither are His thoughts our thoughts (see Isaiah 55:9). God will do all He must to bring His people home. Antisemitism may well be one of the goads He uses to awaken Jewish people worldwide to their need to obey His command and be regathered to the land of Israel. While we stand against this wicked manifestation of Antichrist and pledge our support — even unto death, if necessary — of the Jewish people worldwide, we do not want to be praying against God’s will. Let us pray that His will and His ways would be effective, that not so much as a single Jewish person would perish (see Amos 9:9–10), and that all Israel would be saved (see Romans 11:26)!

Critical Event: Pray for the Red Sea Crisis
Editor’s Note : This article is an excerpt from a post posted by the “Jerusalem Global Chinese Worship Center” on January 17
【Background It has been more than 100 days since the war between Israel and Kazakhstan broke out. In order to show support for the Hamas terrorist organization, the Yemeni rebel Houthis (Note: also known as the “Youth Movement”) have frequently attacked or attacked Israeli ships passing through the Red Sea. Since November, more than 2,000 ships have been forced to leave the Red Sea due to attacks on ships bound for Israel. In this regard, the United States proposed “Operation Prosperity Guardian” to join forces with the United Kingdom and other allies to escort merchant ships in the Red Sea.
Last week, the United States and the United Kingdom officially launched joint sea and air attacks on multiple strongholds of the Houthi armed forces on the night of January 11, hoping to weaken the Houthi armed forces’ ability to continue to attack ships and commercial shipping indiscriminately. “These targeted attacks send a clear message that the United States and our partners will not tolerate any attacks on our personnel or allow hostile disruptors to jeopardize freedom of navigation,” President Joe Biden said. .”
On Friday, the U.S. military said it used more than 150 munitions, hitting 28 locations, and struck more than 60 targets using cruise missiles and bombs launched by fighter jets, warships and submarines. The United States stated that the scope of the attack included weapons depots, radar stations and command centers, including Houthi military targets in remote mountainous areas. According to a preliminary assessment by the United States, no more than four points of the Houthi armed capabilities were destroyed in the US and British air strikes. one.
The Houthis have not yet acknowledged the extent of the damage caused by the air strikes, saying five militants were killed and six injured in 73 air strikes. They vowed revenge and continued their attacks on shipping. Houthi armed spokesman Nasruddin. Nasruldeen Amer told Al Jazeera that British and American ships had become “legitimate targets” as a result of last week’s attacks on Yemen.
On Monday, the Iran-backed Yemeni Houthi armed group used an anti-ship ballistic missile to attack the US cargo ship “M/V Gibraltar Eagle” sailing near the Gulf of Aden (Aden), but there were no casualties. or reports of significant damage. Earlier in the day, British maritime security company Ambrey said that a US bulk carrier flying the flag of the Marshall Islands was also attacked by a missile while transiting near the port of Aden in Yemen.
Despite the U.S. attack, the Houthis appear undeterred and may intensify their offensive. Farea Al-Muslimi, an expert at Chatham House, said in an interview with Deutsche Welle (DW) that these attacks are more like a message sent by the Houthis to the country. Attacking Red Sea ships and firing rockets into Israel is a unique opportunity to demonstrate their pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel and anti-American stance to the local population. He believes that the US and British air strikes will not be able to prevent the Houthi armed forces from launching further attacks in the Red Sea.
Drone footage from Houthi al-Masirah television showed hundreds of thousands of people chanting slogans condemning Israel and the United States in Sanaa, Yemen.
Reuters quoted a senior Iranian official who requested anonymity as saying that the Houthis are making their own decisions. “We support their fight, but Iran does not want a full-scale war in the region,” which will be made by Israel and the United States. to decide whether to stop “the Houthis’ interference in Red Sea shipping.”
At the end of last year, the United States released the latest declassified intelligence, accusing Iran of being behind the Houthi armed forces’ recent attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea, and that Iran also had signs of “deep involvement”, including providing drones, missiles and tactical intelligence. Both the United Kingdom and the United States hope to curb Iran’s role in the region, but this is likely to increase the risk of new fronts beyond the Israel-Kazakhstan conflict.
Even if the Houthis cannot compete with the military might of the United States and Britain, they appear to have enough determination and the weapons and equipment provided by Iran to put shipping in the Red Sea into crisis and escalate conflicts in the Middle East. Let us watch and pray for the situation in the Middle East, praying that God will be in control of all these matters and prevent the enemy from rising up to provoke new lines of war in the Middle East and endangering the security of the people.

Pray for Native Americans: Jerusalem Aboriginal Embassy
【Current events: The opening ceremony of the “Jerusalem Indigenous Embassy” led by the “Indigenous Coalition For Israel” (ICFI) was held on the evening of February 1 at the “Friends of Zion” Museum in Jerusalem held.
The establishment of this embassy has received strong support from indigenous leaders around the world, including Singapore, Taiwan, Samoa, American Samoa, Hawaii, Tahiti, New Caledonia, Solomon Islands, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Cook Islands, Tonga, Fiji, Native American Chiefs and Southern African Paramount Chiefs.
The purpose of establishing the embassy is to help change the perception of indigenous peoples around the world, as Palestinians falsely claim that there is no evidence that Jews lived here before 1948 and that Jews came to Israel as colonial invaders. The establishment of the embassy at this time became an urgent antidote to this wrong statement.
Sheree Trotter, co-founder of ICFI, told the audience of more than 200 people present at the opening ceremony, “ We recognize that the Jews are the indigenous people of this land, and we stand with you and support you. ” She noted that the Land of Israel is the place where the Jewish people “formed their nation, developed their language and sacred literature, and began their beliefs, customs and traditions. To the Jewish people, it is the holiest place in the world. …This connection with a specific land and its ancestors A deep connection is what defines Aboriginal people.”
Trotter said she hopes the embassy will serve as a center of information, a welcoming place for indigenous people visiting Israel, and a center that “galvanizes” support for indigenous peoples around the world. The embassy will create a department to counter the misinformation about Israel that is prevalent on social media and “tell the story of our indigenous friendships.” The embassy will also host academic seminars and become a tourist attraction. “We plan to establish an NGO arm at the United Nations,” she added. While it would not be an embassy in the ordinary sense – it would represent neither the government of the country where the indigenous people live nor the indigenous people themselves – it has been used by Israel recognized as an embassy.
According to Gil Haskell, Director of the National Protocol Department of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Aboriginal Embassy is the 100th embassy opened in Israel and the fifth embassy established in Jerusalem.
The following are the remarks from representatives from various places who participated in the ceremony:
- Mike Evans (founder of Friends of Zion Museum) told attendees: The Bible says: “Comfort, comfort my people, says your God!” ( Isaiah 40:1 ) You will be a great comfort to the nation of Israel, and you will be ambassadors to your nation. “
- The Khoi are an indigenous ethnic group with a population of about 15 million, divided into more than 20 tribes, distributed in southern Africa, Botswana and Namibia. Xami Thomas, a representative of the ethnic group ) said: “Remember, God said to Moses, ‘ Go tell Pharaoh, Israel is my firstborn son ,’ so we view Israel as our big brother. We love the Jewish people. … We don’t just see this as a way to support It is a way for Israel, and also to let Israel know that her enemies are far fewer than her friends.” He also apologized for the South African government’s accusation of genocide against Israel before the International Court of Justice in The Hague. He also said, “Anyone who says Israel is not an indigenous nation does not know what they are talking about. Because if Israel is not an indigenous nation, then there are no indigenous nations on earth.”
- Greg Motu, a New Zealand Baptist pastor and member of the Maori tribe, also spoke of what led him to support Israel. When British missionaries came to us, they taught the natives “the words that the Hebrews had written over hundreds and thousands of years.” He said, ” Thank you for preserving the culture and history. It has changed us. “
- Ate Moala, a representative from the Pacific Islands of Tonga, recounted how the king of Tonga in the 17th century accepted “the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.” Moala brought a message of comfort to the king and queen of Tonga: ” Israel The God who has saved His people once and He will save them again. He will protect you in this difficult time in the war against Hamas and Hezbollah. ”
- Ateret Shmuel, director of Indigenous Bridges, an organization dedicated to promoting the development of indigenous communities around the world, said: “I was horrified to see people who I have known for decades. People who claim to care about human rights and indigenous rights see the worst genocide of the Jewish people since the Holocaust and yet take to the streets to support it, chanting slogans about the annihilation of Israel and claiming that Israel occupies other people’s land.” See After so much hatred, she said, it was a relief to witness “the time and energy that you representatives of ancient, beautiful, and fertile indigenous tribes have spent in such a short period of time, dropping everything, flying across the world, extending a hand of friendship and cooperation, in this It is truly thrilling to stand with us during a difficult, complex, and critical moment in history. It is clear that what is happening here is powerful, epic, and biblical.
