Prayer Request
Please pray for those people who are involved in organizing and making this Global 40 Day Prayer And Fast movement possible. Particularly, please pray for the spiritual leaders, their co-workers and their family members, the behind-the-scene editorial team and their spiritual coverings, and family members. The son of one of the main leaders got sick, vomiting blood and hospitalized for three days. Please ask God to:
- protect everyone involved in the global prayer and fast and their family. May God watch their coming and going and keep them healthy and prosperous spirit, soul and body.
- bless the editorial team to be able to receive from God and translate it in words speedily and accurately.
Recognizing the importance of praying for the salvation of the members of the Freemason and Illuminati
[Editor’s note: We often hear that the Freemason and the Illuminati have great control and manipulation of the political economy of all the country in the world. Here we will give a brief explanation for the mountain of politics and economy, so that everyone can have a clearer understanding as to how to pray correctly for the political and the business community:
- The Illuminati and the Freemason are organizations independent of each other. Although there are overlapping of their members and some of their ideas and values are consistent, but the two are not in the same system. The Masonic Society is more similar to a religious organization, with a focus on doctrine and secrets. The Illuminati is a political organization with independent political ideals and action plans.
- The Freemason Association is considered to be the leader behind the Illuminati. It is the elite circle of the 33rd degree Masonic Master (33° member is a Masonic Religious Research level membership and honorary member). The Illuminati is considered to be in control of the fields of finance, politics, military, and entertainment in countries such as Europe and the United States, and has a population reduction plan to eliminate people of color and then establish a unified government in the world to achieve the goal of completely ruling the world (“New World Order”).
The organization and the operation of the Illuminati:
- Founded in 1776 by Adam Weishaupt, the ultimate goal is to establish a new world order, the world’s unified government, that controls the politics and economy of the world.
- The Illuminati is a unified financial system that controls Central Banks, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the Federal Reserve System. You may already know that the Federal Reserve does not belong to the US government. It is actually ruled by international bankers, but it can adjust the US loan interest rate and formulate US monetary policy.
- The Illuminati also controls the oil market, the market of daily necessities, and so on. They can dictate the price and can also control the supply.
- The Illuminati not only controls the economy, but also controls the US government, including the judicial system, the Supreme Court, and even the US capital Washington DC does not belong to the United States. It is an independent state and is controlled by the Illuminati.
The goal of the Illuminati:
- Create global economic collapse, people panic, and social unrest, thereby benefiting from it.
- Subvert the autonomy of governments, create disputes, civil wars, and intervene to take over the state power.
- Using United Nations, in the name of helping poor countries, to create confusion in countries, in order to achieve control and manipulation of the county.
- Funding global terrorist organizations, creating terrorist activities and reducing the global population.
- Infiltrate the education system of each country and promote the unification of teaching materials to help control the mind of people
Daily Prayer Declaration
Dear intercessors,
Today, the Editor’s team has received that in the remaining days of fast and prayer, we will pray and declare the following four topics.
Ask God to save the souls of the members of Free Mason and Illuminati
- In the name of Jesus, the sovereignty of the Lord of Host will replace the control and manipulation from Freemason and Illuminati in politics, economy and other areas.
- In the name of Jesus, the Lord of Host will send Michael the Archangel and the angelic host to destroy the dark power from Freemason and Illuminati in politics, economy and other areas.
- In the name of Jesus, all members that belong to Freemason and Illuminati will return to You and be saved.
Ask God to save the souls of Islamic extremists
We know the danger that Islamic extremists bring to the world with their terror attacks, as well as their prayers that often become the curses toward Israel and the rest of the world. Especially during Ramadan time, the destructive power of Islamic extremists can increase enormously (for example, the deadly suicide bomb attacks in the Indonesian city of Surabaya this year, and the Philippine City that was besieged by Islamic State-linked militants. Let us declare the following:
- In the name of Jesus, the blessings and the peace of God will replace all the curses from Islamic extremists.
- In the name of Jesus, all the terror attacks that Islamic extremists plan will fail and be interrupted before they even start.
- In the name of Jesus, the salvation and grace of God will come into the lives of these Islamic extremists.
Ask God to save the souls of the LGBT group
In addition, the trend of LGBT is actively searching its way in the schools of every nation, pushing the legalization of homosexual education and same-sex marriage. Therefore, we need to pray and declare the followings everyday:
- In the name of Jesus, the promotion of LGBT ideology all over the world will fail, including the legalization of same-sex marriage and homosexual education.
- In the name of Jesus, the grace of God and salvation will come to LGBT group.
- In the name of Jesus, one husband and one wife system will be restored all over the world.
- In the name of Jesus, young people will wake up and reject the ideology and value of same-sex marriage. They will embrace the truth and teaching of one husband and on wife system.
Ask God to keep all the nations out of the war crisis and into peace
- In the name of the Lord, the whole world will enter into a season of reconciliation and peace, to break away from the enemy’s division, and tricks to detonate wars, and especially ask God to preserve China-US relationship, the relationship between the United States and Russia, Taiwan’s relationship with China, and the relationships between Middle East Muslim countries and Israel.
The city transformation of Manchester, Kentucky
A small community in Kentucky that went through an amazingly similar journey to what we are now going through as a nation. Not only did they face years of government corruption and control, but they faced decades of generational addictions, crime and outright hatred towards one another. Their story of breakthrough and transformation should not only inspire but give some insights into how to approach this battle from a kingdom perspective.
The incredible transformation story of Manchester, Kentucky, has been seen by thousands in Sentinel Group’s documentary film, An Appalachian Dawn (2010). The story unfolds of a drug-infested, crime-ridden community steeped in cycles of hopelessness and despair due to corrupt governmental control. It was only when the “good folks” in town started to lose their kids to drug overdoses and suicide that people got desperate enough to pray. Following months of crying out to the Lord and pleading for heaven’s intervention, they marched through town to take a stand against the corruption and control.
When 63 pastors openly repented of their apathy and lack of leadership in the public park, something broke. The fear of the Lord fell upon the 3,500 people gathered, and the tangible presence of God moved in. Everyone present knew something had changed. What followed is an amazing testimony of how the fear of the Lord and the supernatural grace of God enabled the citizens to rise up and take back their county—little by little. Though it would take almost three years for all the corruption to be uncovered and crooked officials brought to justice, their community saw tangible results that drew international attention. Their process of transformation is something our nation can learn from. Their responses to the ongoing threats and their fearless actions against impossible odds is proof of God’s power to change and transform, not only a community, but a nation.
Doug Abner (Appalachian Center for Transformation) was a local pastor who helped lead the charge throughout Manchester’s transformation. He tells of how unbelief and fear had crippled the church prior to the march in 2004. Due to the years of corruption of local officials and the rigged election system, believers felt helpless in making any changes. The lack of unity among churches only strengthened the resolve of corrupt officials to intimidate and threaten anyone who challenged their agenda. Even so, Abner shares that the day after the march, these same believers, now emboldened in their faith, came together to do something radical.
Instead of launching campaigns against the officials or publicly decrying their unlawful deeds, these believers went to the offices of these city officials with gifts of potted plants and asked if they could pray for them. One of these corrupt officials had previously threatened a pastor and his church. To their amazement, this official called in his staff and allowed Abner to lead them in prayer. Years later, this same official would confess Jesus as Lord and ask for forgiveness. The fear of the Lord was so prevalent that those involved in illegal activities began to turn on each other. As believers continued to pray and work together, God battled on their behalf. Even as the opposition continued, churches in the community began to see a dramatic increase of salvations, and the favor of God came upon the local church. Their unified stand and resolve to do things God’s way was paying off.
Abner shares that the book of Nehemiah became their blueprint for how to rebuild their community. It started by not being swayed by the criticism of their opponents or giving in to the threats and insults (Neh. 4:7-9). Instead, they sought the Lord’s strategies, worked together and got involved. With permission from the state attorney general, Abner’s church began to televise previously closed-door courtroom proceedings for accountability to the public. In 2006, they championed a “Promote the Vote” campaign to encourage local citizens to run for office. The event ran all day as 130 ordinary citizens, many of them believers, ran for office. In 2007, a Christian woman was voted in as mayor, and the community saw even more dramatic changes as she, along with other newly elected officials, began to lead the city with godly wisdom and creative strategies for growth. Churches began to offer recovery programs for drug addicts and a Teen Challenge Center was established, where lifelong destructive cycles were broken.
Abner said it was not always easy. The first few years were a challenge, as many illegal activities continued even in the midst of revival. Even so, God’s tangible presence gave the people a fearlessness to confront the challenges. They didn’t get caught up in opinions and avoided any negative statements about their city. Realizing the power of their declarations and the impact of their witness, they chose their battles carefully. Pastors agreed to focus on the non-negotiable—”heaven and hell issues”—and let the other stuff go. They were intentional in seeking the Lord together, knowing the true power of unity in defeating their enemies.
Within a few years, Manchester became known as a “city of hope” and a testimony to the world of a transformed community. Not only were the people changed, but even the land began to produce again. Animals returned to the forests, and the water became drinkable. Crime went down, and jobs came back. The downtown landscape was beautified, and tourism began to flourish.
With the increasing opposition to the new administration and ongoing threats against conservative values, how do believers face the uphill battle to rebuild America? With the leftist agenda continuing its assault and the likelihood of increased spiritual warfare in the public arena, what is our best strategy for gaining ground and keeping it? Is there any model we can learn from that will give us clues for success?

Pursuing Intimacy With God
Hear My Prayer
Psalm 84:8 “Hear my prayer, LORD God Almighty; listen to me, God of Jacob.”
Dear Abba Father, once again we come to spend time with You and joyfully offer our heart of gratitude. As we come before You to pray for countries, governments, societies, and kingdoms, we know the voice of our prayer will surely reach Your ears. You are the God of Jacob; as You faithfully answered all Jacob’s prayers and called him Israel, we know You will surely and faithfully listen to our unified prayers. You are LORD God Almighty, the God of the whole earth, our Great Commander-in-Chief, and the All-Victorious Lord! When Your children gather together to petition You, oh Father, You will listen and answer our prayers. Your will cleanse the whole land and make it a praise in the earth. We praise You for the kingdom of the world will become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and Jesus will reign forever and ever!
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray, Amen!
Repentance
Repentance for the City 06
For our offenses are many in your sight, and our sins testify against us. Our offenses are ever with us, and we acknowledge our iniquities: rebellion and treachery against the Lord, turning our backs on our God, inciting revolt and oppression, lies our hearts have conceived. So justice is driven back, righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. (Isaiah 59:12-15)
Today, many countries around the world are experiencing widespread moral decline. Except for true Christians, most people tend to indulge themselves in liberal agendas without restraint and ignore the teachings of the Bible. In our society, there are rising divorce rates, disintegrating family units, the gay revolution coming out of the closet, legalization of same-sex marriage and abortion, gender confusion, men and women bathing in the same bathroom, legalization of euthanasia, legalization of marijuana. Even under liberal governments, through physiological education curriculum for middle and primary school students, students are taught to not only support these policies, but also to pass them onto the next generation – to the point that all biblical principles of moral and legal boundaries are removed, as described in the first chapter of Romans: just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
Lord, we rend our hearts and humble ourselves before You, asking You to forgive us for our rebellion and going our own ways. Have mercy on us, Lord, for we have turned away from You. Let us not die but live by Your amazing love, which is being poured out on all fresh. Send us Your holy fire to consume us and revive us. Let us and the Chinese people all over the world stand and cry out together for our beloved cities, to turn away from our wicked ways. We declare that Jesus is Lord, He rules over our city and our city belongs to the Lord Jesus!
In Jesus’ name, Amen!
Pray For Nations
[Editor’s note: In these forty days, we will first pray for the countries participating in this fasting prayer. After that, we will pray daily for the countries in the continent according to the continents of the world. We will select three to four countries / regions and pray for them everyday.]
Socialist Republic of Vietnam
[Country Profile: Vietnam neighbors China to the north, Cambodia and Laos to the west. Historically, as a result of Vietnam being under the rule of Chinese dynasties for a long time, Chinese culture has thus been massively adopted in Vietnam. Chinese rule ended in the 10th century. It was colonized by France in the middle of the 19th century. In 1954 when the French army was defeated in the Battle of Dien Bien, Vietnam became independent once again. The Vietnam War (between North Vietnam and South Vietnam) broke out in the following year which lasted for two decades. On April 30, 1975, North Vietnam captured Saigon, the capital of South Vietnam, and unified the nation. Later, in 1979, Vietnam captured Cambodia and had a border conflict with China. In recent years, the Vietnamese government has pursued a policy of independence and peaceful development, striving to maintain border stability and making every effort to develop the economy. However, because of the long history of Chinese oppression, the Vietnamese generally hold strong suspicion and rejection towards Chinese. Holding serious anti-Chinese complex, Vietnamese have anti-Chinese protests occurred from time to time. On the religious front, although Catholicism was introduced in the 16th century and expanded during French rule, Buddhism is still the prevalent religion among Vietnamese. Protestant Christians account for only a very small percentage of the population; most of them are also ethnic minorities. In January 2018, Vietnam implemented a new law on religion which afflicts Christians substantially.]
- Pray for Vietnamese Buddhists: Father God, we know that You love the world, including tens of millions of Buddhists in Vietnam. May You open the eyes in their hearts to see that You are the source of truth and life. Lord, Your ways are higher than our ways and Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts. May You give them a heart of hunger and a spirit of hope. Help them experience Your true peace and know that You are the only true God, that they may accept Jesus Christ as their Lord.
- Pray for Catholics in Vietnam: Father God, may You send the angels to protect the people who are called under Your name. Renew every Catholic so that they truly know You. May Your Spirit of truth be the Lord and King in their life, to guide them into all the truth. Help them cultivate a personal relationship with You which is real and not merely nominal, so that they may enjoy the abundant life You promised and become the salt and light and proclaim Your name in this totalitarian socialist country.
- Pray for Vietnamese Christians: Father God, we thank You for the faithful missionaries You sent to Vietnam to preach Your word when she was still open to missionaries. May You preserve the fruits of their labor to continue to grow in good soil, bloom and bear much more fruits. We pray that You make Your children united in one accord. We also pray for those Christian brothers and sisters who are being persecuted for their Christian faith by the government or by their family. May You help and encourage them. May You intervene supernaturally when they are suffering for You. Empower them to overcome and save them so that they may stand firm and be faithful to You even unto death.
- Pray for the people of Vietnam: Father God, may You manifest Your glorious power in Vietnam. Heal the people who have been seriously afflicted because of wars. Release them from all kinds of dark powers into Your kingdom of wonderful light. Give to those in power a heart that is willing to pursue well-being for the people rather than focusing on self-serving. Help them fulfill their responsibilities as government officials in honesty, integrity, fairness, and justice, so that they may lead the people out of the long-time shadow of alien
- Pray for Sino-Vietnamese relations: Lord Jesus, You are the Lord who is a peace maker. We pray for Your mercy and forgiveness for the long-standing disputes and disturbances between China and Vietnam in history, and the harm and hatred caused thereby. We pray that the God who transcends everything rend the heaven and descend in these two countries. With the power of Your love and the omnipotent work of the Holy Spirit, may Your gospel of peace spread among the people of both nations to enable them to reconcile with You and with one another, expel the accumulated suspicion, fear, bitterness, anger, arrogance and oppression towards each other, so that the Vietnamese people no longer reject Chinese, that China can also sincerely help with Vietnam’s political and economic development for mutual benefits and a better relationship in the future.
We pray in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Iran Islamic republic
[Also known as Iran, one the most ancient nations in the world. It was called Persia, later called Elam, and was mentioned in the Bible. The prophet Daniel was counselor to multiple Persian kings. In New Testament times, Persians (Parthians, Medians and Elam) were also members of the early church. In mid-7th century AD, the Persian empire was conquered by the Arabic empire, and the Iranian plateau in the middle-east became to be Islamified. In early 1979, Sayyid Ruhollah Mūsavi Khomeini led an Islamic revolution in Iran, and established the Islamic Republic of Iran, and unified religious and political system, and Khomeini became Grand Ayatollah. The present Grand Ayatollah is Ali Khamenei. Islam holds the highest moral authority in Iran, and is the highest standard in public life. 89% of the whole population are Shiite Muslims, 9% are Sunni Muslims and the other 2% are of different faiths (Christians, Zoroasterism, Judaism, Mandaeism and Bahá’í
etc)
Iran used to be a rich nation. Before the 1979 Islamic revolution, its national GDP was once the 4th in the world. But after the religious revolution, internal and external government policies caused Iran’s economy to flounder, causing the people to lose confidence in Islam, and Islam was not able to deal with the problems in society and in daily life. They were seeking answers to life, but were not able to find it in the national and ancestral religions. Through modern information like the smartphone, Internet, satellite TV etc, the Iranian people now have opportunity to hear the gospel. Many even before watching satellite TV, already saw a shining figure (Jesus) in a white robe in visions and dreams.
Christianity is developing rapidly in Iran, especially in the recent years, it has reached a peak. No matter if its largest oppression against the church, or massive waves of arresting pastors and converts, none of it has been effective. Even apply pressure, threats and persecutions against the Iranian Christians, especially converts, many Iranian young people are daily becoming more interested in Christianity each day and decide to believe. Founder of Heart4Iran Ansari expressed during an interview by CBN: “In 2016, our call center processed about 700 contacts per day, which resulted in about 93 decisions for Christ per day. That’s roughly about 3 people every hour that confessed their faith in Jesus.” 20% of the whole population has seen gospel program before. According to World Mission, Iran’s underground church is the fastest growing church in the world, and the house church movement is the lifeline of Christianity in Iran. The Iranian government sees Christianity as a major threat towards Islam, and since 2005, Iran has increased persecution upon Christians, and the government attacks house church meetings, arrests worshipers and threaten church members, while also made publishing, importing or copying Bibles and Christian literature illegal. Despite all that, persecution has made Christianity to grow rapidly in Iran.
Recently, the United States, declared in the next few months, to impose “the strongest sanctions in history” on Iran. America’s sanctions on Iran may cause local Christians to be targets of revenge. (sources from Wikipedia, Kingdom Revival Times, Kingdom Prayer Network)】
“This is what the Lord Almighty says: “See, I will break the bow of Elam, the mainstay of their might. I will bring against Elam the four winds from the four quarters of heaven; . . . I will set my throne in Elam and destroy her king and officials,” declares the Lord. “Yet I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come,” declares the Lord.” (Jeremiah 49:35-39)
- Pray for the government: May God’s salvation come upon the officials of the government of Iran, may Lord Jesus shows Himself to them in their dreams, that they may know the salvation You have brought by the cross. May God cause the internal shakings of Iran, to lead the nation into rapid change, and in the governmental leadership level. May God raise up Christian leaders in Iran according to His own hearts, who can rule the nation in truth and righteousness, to cause the Iranian people to have stable lives, and enjoy freedom of speech and religion.
- Pray for the Muslims: Abba Father, please save the souls of the Muslims, continue to use the Internet, Satellite, underground church and mission organizations etc to open the doors of the gospel, open their eyes and ears, soften their hearts, that the seed of the gospel may bring forth hundredfold of fruits,leading many Muslims to abundant salvation. May your salvation come upon the people who are not deceived by the wicked regime and have rose up to demand a change of governmental leadership, cause them to encounter You in the protests, to know “It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man” (Psalm 118:8), to see that hope and change in Iran lies in You, the Lord of Hosts.
- Pray for Christians and churches: May God strengthen the faith of the Iranian Christians, use them to proclaim the name of the Lord in their areas. May God’s protection and peace come upon them. May God grant the great joy in the midst of tribulation, through the Holy Spirit cause them to be overfilled with hope, and for the brothers and sisters who are experiencing persecution and imprisonment, to more deeply experience God’s faithfulness, to stand boldly by God and become witnesses for Him. May the fire of the Holy Spirit ignite the church, build up Christians to be on fire for God, led by the Holy Spirit, full of signs and miracles, that the church be growing nonstop. May God light the fire of prayer, so that the churches of Iran can unite, to establish united prayer altar, to pray with one heart, to proclaim the gospel, and bring national transformation to Iran, and win the nation for the Lord.
- Pray for the nation of Iran: May God reign in Iran “You will break them with a rod of iron, You will dash them to pieces like pottery.” (Psalm 2:9). Shake the pride and control of the Islamic power, may God shake Iran’s leadership, and “break the bow of Elam” as God has promised, and to remove the king and leaders, to break Iran’s connection to terrorists organizations, to shatter the powers of darkness behind Iran and establish the throne of God in Iran, “restore the fortunes of Elam” to release the people of Iran into the Kingdom of Light of God’s beloved Son Jesus Christ. (Jeremiah 49:35, 39)

May they become blessings for President Trump. We declare in the name of the Lord that they will continue to protect the freedom of religion for Christians.
- May God manifest His righteousness, to those political leaders who are not after God’s heart, who have offended God and covered up their sins, eradicating evidences by murdering witnesses, we declare in Jesus’ name that they be brought to justice. We pray that the Lord protect the intelligence personnel who are searching the hidden evil, the journalists and witnesses who hold the evidences. Protect their identity not to be exposed until the evil political leaders are brought to justice.
- In the name of Jesus we declare, all lies, accusations, and distorted spirits, any personal attack released on President Trump through the media and leaders of all areas, be completely stopped and withdrawn. Avenge belongs to God, He will repay. Any weapon forged against Trump the servant of God, will not prevail against him, every tongue that accuses president Trump, will be judged!
In the name of Jesus, we pray
Pray for Chairman Xi Jinping
Lord! As apostle Paul urges, “that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority (1Tim 2:1),” Now, we pray in the name of Jesus to bless Chairman Xi and his officials, May You bless them with heavenly wisdom to govern China. Give them especially a heart “to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly” (Micah 6:8) with you. May You raise up Christian officials round him to help him make righteous decisions, according to the heart of God, to bring peace and blessings to Taiwan, to mainland China, and to the rest of the world. We ask You to keep Chairman Xi strong and healthy in daily administration work. We also pray that God grant President Xi courage and wisdom to tackle corruption in the government.
God, give him a gentle, patient, calm and stable heart to face the issue of China-US trade. Because he values the peaceful relationship between both countries above all, God will have mercy toward to China, and bless China and turn things around.
Pray for Prime Minister Netanyahu:
Pray for President Putin
Pray for Seven Mountains
[Background: The 7 Mountain Strategy is a strategy for Christians to bring about the transformation of society in accordance with the values of the Kingdom of God. Transforming urban countries by changing the seven most important areas that affect society and culture. Among them, the “Seven Great Mountains” are the seven major areas.

The Indonesian government has started the reconstruction of the disaster area from the very day. 】
At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens. The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain. (Hebrews 12:26-27)

Pray For Israel
Pray for overseas Jews to immigrate to Israel / Aliyah
[Background: Currently, if people with Jewish blood wish to immigrate to Israel, they would first submit an application to the Department of Interior. After that their application will be turned over to the Jewish Agency (the Aliyah Department). This agency would then do further background check including Goggle search for personal files. Some of such effort can result in reports with more than 200 pages. If a person is found to be a Messianic Jew or is affiliated with Christianity, this person’s application will be automatically rejected. Such practice has been criticized and noted by the US State Department’s annual report: Freedom of Religion Report. The report raised concern that this practice is only against Christianity and not against other religions such as Reform Judaism, atheism, Buddhism, Christian Science, or Hinduism. (The above news came from “Jerusalem Post.”)]
Abba Father:
We ask You to overturn current Israel immigration policy against Messianic Jews.
- According to Your timing, call Your people around the world to return to their homeland. Grant them grace to hear Your call. “In that day the Lord will extend his hand yet a second time to recover the remnant that remains of his people, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coast lands of the sea. He will raise a signal for the nations and will assemble the banished of Israel, and gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. (Isaiah 11:11-12)
- We ask You to release millions of Jews in America to return to their homeland. For those in Europe, we ask You to stir their heart for Aliyah in light of rampant anti-Semitism. For those in South Africa, we ask You to stir them up for Aliyah in light of recent political and economics shakings. “By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion. How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?” (Psalm 137: 1, 4)
- We ask You to strengthen new immigrants with Your joy. Help them learn Hebrew, find a way to support their family and integrate into society.
- Raise up people to help Jews from the nations to return to their homeland. “Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I will lift up my hand to the nations, and raise my signal to the peoples; and they shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders.” (Isaiah 49:22)
Abba Father, in the name of Jesus we declare:

- Awaken the heart of the young generation, to rediscover the value of Christian family, give them a hate for the homosexual concept, and say “NO” to same sexual marriage and its behavior.
- In the name of Jesus we declare, the fire of the Holy Spirit will rend the heaven and come down and burn down and abolish the stronghold of homosexuality in Israel, declare that our God reign, establish Your throne in Israel, revive Israel to be Your holy Kingdom.
We pray,
- Forgiveness: Ask God to forgive the Israeli government to allow homosexual parades throughout Israel.
- Cleansing: Ask God to cleanse the soul that has been defiled, and thoroughly cleanse and break the influence of homosexuality.
- Blessings and Curses: Ask the Lord to let Israel commemorate the words of God’s blessings on mount Gerizim, and use the words of God’s curse on the mount Ebalto knock open their hearts, so they will have the fear of the Lord, and turn back to God.
- The love of Jesus: The love of Jesus being released among the ultra-orthodox and liberal Jews, let the truth of God to bring them freedom. Bind the strong men who make them hate each other, give peace and unite with each other.
- Pure and clean heart: May God restore Israel’s pure and clean heart toward Christ, and be dedicate to Christ alone.
Bless Israel to Walk In God’s Will
- Bless Israel to receive God’s love and salvation: “The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.’” (Jeremiah 31:3) Lord, forgive the sins of rebellion of Israel. “I will heal their waywardness and love them freely, for my anger has turned away from them.” (Hosea 14:4) We join our hearts to bless Israel to walk in God’s will, to receive God’s incomparable love into their hearts, and to turn back to God! Abba Father, we ask that You remove the veil that covers the face of Your people and release the Spirit of the LORD to fill the country of Israel so that salvation will come to Your people.
- Bless the relationship between Israel and the countries in the Middle East: We bless the relationship between Israel and the countries in the Middle East. Lord, we pray that You rebuild the desolate places, remove the vengeance of the generations, restore the brotherly love between Isaac and Ishmael, and between Jacob and Esau. Lord, use the church as an instrument for reconciliation to rebuild the foundation which has been demolished throughout the generations. May the precious blood of our Lord Jesus Christ wash away the sins in the Middle East, and abolish the sins from the lust such as unforgiveness, bitterness, envy, anger, arrogance, malice, brutality….etc.
- Bless the Church to unite in Christ with Israel: Abba Father, we ask that You forgive us, Gentiles, who have been blinded by Replacement Theology and resisted Your elect, Israel. Please give us the love You have for Israel so that we can love the Jews, our elder brothers with Your love. Help us understand their pain from being torn apart. Remove the dividing wall between us so that we can love one another in unity. May Israel and the Church become one and align with God and with one another, that the Jews and the Gentiles will accomplish what You through the Messiah have destined us in the end times, and that together we will serve You and be witnesses to the world. (John 13:35; 17:21)
- Holy Spirit will flood Israel with His waves of revival: May the waves of revival from the Holy Spirit flow into each and everyone of us who are fervent for God and Israel. May their ministries and strategies in Israel be established and strengthened by God. The shaking in Israel is the shaking of the whole world. The revival in Israel will also be the revival of the whole earth. Lord, establish a 24/7 firewall of prayers all over the world to watch and intercede for Jerusalem. Lord, we call forth those who will never be silent day or night, and will not rest and give Him no rest till He establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth. (Isaiah 62:6-7)
Pray For Iran – Israel’s Greatest Enemy

Iran is beginning a major naval exercise in the Strait of Hormuz, This channel controls access to the Persian Gulf and affects many countries outside Iran. This prompted a strong reaction between the United States and Israel. At the same time, internal turmoil is growing in Iran due to economic problems and people’s protest riots over the regime.
In addition, when the US restarted its economic sanctions against Iran, its Iranian national currency depreciated sharply and prices soared. However, the economic turmoil has also affected the brothers and sisters of the Iranian church. The economic materials are very scarce and it is difficult to spend the day. Please pray for them. ]
We pray that God will
- Keep Israel alert and vigilant, give them wisdom: God keep Israel alert and vigilant, and respond prudently to each action that Iran is taking. Grant wisdom to Israeli and American military leaders, so that they would be able to discern and respond sensibly to what Iran is doing and expressing in public. (Proverbs 8:14-16)

- Raising up churches in Iran: use the thriving church in Iran to cause the nation to steer away from the current evil path. (II Chronicle 7:14).
