Please Pray Fervently For President Trump
God is shaking through President Trump,
- the Muslim countries ，
- the countries whose politics and economy that had been controlled and manipulated by Freemason and Illuminati
- and countries that resist the gospel and persecuting Christians.
He is not perfect and has his human weaknesses, but
- He spoke boldly for the Lord, he had publicly declared that he would govern according the principles of the Bible
- He reintroduced prayers back to the schools to rescue the next generation; all the school, congress, and sport events can now begin with prayers.
- For the sake of one pastor, he was willing to offend the Republic of Turkey, her fellow NATO member.
- He went to the airport personally to welcome the returned American citizens released from North Korea.
- He abolished the Johnson Amendment, which has given the American churches religious freedom of speech
- He officially declared that Jerusalem is the Capital of Israel
God is speaking to the world through President Trump. Do not touch God’s anointed one. Through him, God is speaking to the countries which persecute Christians, “Let My people go”, so the gospel can go forth to protect religious freedom of Christianity. Through him, God is taking back lost ground, and once again bring the United States of America back to God’s destiny, to stand on God’s side. God is definitely stands with Trump. Now, evil powers have joined force to attack him, especially through the media and his political opponents through accusations, smears and slanders, attempting to pull him down, especially trying to influence the outcome of the Mid-Term Election. We believe God is calling intercessors all over the world to jointly pray for President Trump during this critical time. Because of our praying in one accord,
- God will watch and protect him and his cabinets to continue to govern the USA. God will vindicate President Trump from all these accusations, defamation and slanders;

We encourage all the intercessors to pray for President Trump and his cabinets daily according to the prayer guidelines in the world leader section. If the Holy Spirit reveals to you other matters regarding President Trump, please pray according to God’s will. God bless you!

The Testimony of Argentine Revival
As early as the 18th century, in 1818, the Scottish Baptist missionary James Thomson was sent to Argentina to teach in Latin America. It was an early Protestant missionary under this Roman Catholic sphere. . In the 20th century, Argentina fell into a spiritual crisis…
The sin of the idol of Jezebel. In 1946, the President of Argentina, Juan. Domingo, and his beautiful wife Eva Peron who was into witchcraft, brought idolatry and fornication into the country.
Witchcraft Invasion: Magongba is a kind of sacred religion worshipped by the indigenous people of Brazil. In 1950s, the Magungba promoted low-cost “Brazil tour” to the Argentines, during the Brazil tour, groups of Argentinian were brought into the ceremonies that gave tribute to the Magungba, resulted in thousands of tourists were being possessed by evil spirit, after they returned to Argentina, it affected the spiritual atmosphere of Argentina, it was clearly controlled by the evil spirits, full of witchcraft everywhere. Before the revival, there were only a few Argentine Christians. If there are two people who believe in the Lord in the Church in Argentina, it is considered revival.
1950 – Chaco jungle area across Bolivia Paraguay Argentina: The church in Chaco had lost its original love for God. In 1950, the pastors of the local church heard the pouring out of the Holy Spirit in the South, they sent fellow workers to study. After seeing the work of the Holy Spirit, they were greatly motivated, so they went back to Chaco to share. The hearts of the people began to seek God, especially the youth. A girl who had always been very difficult to deal with in the church, was the first to receive the Holy Spirit. A gangster name Alexander was totally transformed by God and became a young man that prayed. Because of prayers, the spirit of repentance was pouring out in the place, everyone old or young came to the church humbled and repented for their sins, and this revival lasted for several months.
In 1951, God visited the Bell Bible College In 1951. Alexander who was once a gangster, was called by God to be equipped in the Bible College in Bell City. For months, Alexander went to the field outside the school at night to pray, because of his prayers, the Holy Spirit visited him and the entire college. The school was filled with the spirit of repentance and forgiveness. People naturally prayed in the Holy Spirit, a great wave of prayers came upon everyone, whether they were students, teachers or preachers, all went into deep weeping, the old self was broken, the burden of intercession for the country deepened. They began to pray for various cities and nations by name. After three months of earnest prayers, God gave the vision to this group of persistent prayers – the Great Revival is about to come to Argentina.
1952 – Eva, who led the country into a crisis of faith, passed away. Eva, the beautiful wife of the Argentine dictator, who was passionately into spiritualism, and leads this Catholic-led country into a realm of evil spirit. She died of uterine cancer in 1952, only 33 years old. After that, God gave a great amount of information through the prayers among the people who watched the revival in the Bells, they experienced the most difficult period of waiting with expectation for two years. Until 1954, when the time was fulfilled, the Spirit of God came to Argentina and neighboring countries……..
1954 – The Holy Spirit spreads to Argentina in 1954, Tommy Hicks an evangelist in Washington, USA, gathered 50 young people to pray and fast for the revival for 50 days. On the 49th day, he received a message from God to send him to Argentina to hold a meeting and told him to buy a one-way ticket to find a Mr. Peron. He asked the stewardess, if she know a Mr. Peron in Argentina? She replied: “Of course, he is our president!” After arriving Argentina, he went to the presidential palace by faith. The guards stopped him at the door. He said that he would see the president because he wanted to hold a healing conference. In this gathering, God will heal the sickness of the people. The guard was amazed. “God can heal people? Can God heal me?” He said that he has hepatitis and is suffering. So Tom held his hand and began to pray. As soon as he prayed, the guards stepped back two steps and said, there is no pain, all the pain was gone, so he promised Tom to come back the next day and take him to the President.
On the next day, the guards took him to see the President. The local mayor was also present. Tom told the President that he would hold a healing evangelistic meeting, need to rent a gymnasium of 25,000 people, and have newspapers and radio stations to promote the evangelistic meeting. The President asked him, “Do you mean that Jesus, who has been dead for nearly two thousand years, can heal people as he did when he was on earth?” Tom replied, “Yes, I certainly believe.” The President asked again, can He heal him? Because he has a skin disease that is difficult to cure, there are scars on his face. Tom immediately held the President’s hand and began to pray. In an instant, the President said with amazement: “Oh! I am healed! The scars are gone!”
Revival explosion – Fifty Days of Healing Evangelism Conference Due to the personal experience of the President, an order was issued on the spot to allow the people to have complete religious freedom from now on. Later, with the cooperation of the mayor, a healing evangelistic conference was held. Beginning a fifty-day healing mission. A wide variety of people come to the meeting, and every day, people’s bodies were restored to health, or the minds were renewed. Rich, poor, educated, uneducated, high-ranking, and low-ranking, governor or beggars all met God in these days. From mid-April to mid-June 1954, almost two months, the glory of God spread throughout the land. God touched and kissed the land, and the blood of Jesus cleansed every place to make it whole, and the traditional church began to accept the baptism of the Holy Spirit. All walks of life have dedicated themselves, the pastors worked hard, and the Argentine churches have been greatly renewed. Around the 1950s, this gathering was the largest in the history of the church. According to the statistics of the police station, a total of 6 million people participated in this healing evangelistic conference, which broke the traditional dark forces of idolatry in Argentina and led to the great rejuvenation of Argentina.
The revival effect lasted for ten years. Ed Miller recorded this great revival in the book, Pastor Miller described: “The group of ecstatic people began to have hope. The original Argentine people were set on fire like Pentecostal believers. Every night, when God released the messages of joy through Pastor Tom, the people sang in a loud voice to respond to the power of God… They found the source of life, the healing water flowing out, and the power of God running among the people.”
Jesus is the God who was and is and is to come, and the miraculous things He did in Argentina, can still happen today. Let us open up our mouths to ask God, so that His will can be done in the nations as it is in heaven!
Pursuing Intimacy With God
Morning Prayer
Psalm 143:8 “Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you.”
Lamentations 3:23 “… his compassion never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”
Today we come to the secret place to meditate on the prayer of the psalmist who came to You early in the morning to hear Your word of unfailing love. (Psalm 143:8) Father, we also like to come to You in the morning to listen to You, look to You, and wait upon You. Your love and compassion are new every morning; therefore, every day we are eager to meet You in the secret place to receive the renewing grace. Oh Father, You said: Your favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning! We look to You continuously in confidence and will not be shaken, for Your promises never fail and our Abba Father is altogether trustworthy!
Oh Father, You cherish every moment we spend with You. During the 40 days of prayer and fasting, let our prayer reach Your altar early in the morning, that our life may be filled with morning dew, with more love and trust, and with overflowing joy to love both God and people every day!
In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray, Amen!
Repentance
Repentance for the Country 01
The Lord is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever. (Psalms 28:8-9)
Abba Father, from history we know that You cause any country established on Christ to be honored, powerful, and prosperous. When a country forsakes God, its leaders lead the people blindly toward the path of darkness, and as a result, the country has no vision and no direction.There was no peace for the people and the country went on a downward spiral. Lord, we recognize that Christians are responsible for the rapid decline of social morality. We are sorry that in the past we considered it despicable and dishonorable to engage in political activities; in addition, we stayed away from involvement in governmental affairs, afraid of being tarnished. As a result, we have inadvertently encouraged all kinds of evil as they run rampant in society, such as greed, deception, slander, defamation, adultery, abortion, homosexuality, and same-sex marriage. As delusions and chaos become pervasive in cities and the whole nation, we often find hatred, rivalry, corruption, division and strife among public officials. And as unfairness and unrighteousness become prevalent, we find all around us collusion between government and business. In addition, TV and media have greatly promoted all kinds of immoral entertainment, causing devastating effects to society, such as the deterioration of traditional and family values, parent-child discord, social indifference, and lack of moral courage and ability to confess and repent in the church. In less than a few years, our whole country has deteriorated rapidly to a level beyond belief. Lord, You are our final and only hope. “I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.” Lord, forgive us for departing from You and forgive our indifference toward the affairs of our families and country which has resulted in unfathomable and devastating consequences.
But thank You, Lord, just when we were losing hope, You raised up Your servant for Your own namesake; even though he was despised by the world, he “loves his family and his country” and You are using him to take back the White House and reign once again in America. Over and over when we have felt defeated, You did miracles to subdue our enemies and break their ranks. Even though they thought they were sure to win, You nullified all their schemes and plans. Even now they continue to stiffen their neck to fight back with strong oppositions to everything, dividing the country. Lord, how much we need You in this fierce battle; You are the miracle-working God and You are the One who turns defeat into victory!
Lord, release Your saving power and inspire my brothers and sisters to continue to advance in faith, never to retreat but to pray day and night for our leaders and their teams. When people see prayers answered with signs and miracles, they will be in awe and inspired to come to You with their whole hearts. Lord, give our brothers and sisters the burden of prayer and the strength to continue to cry out. Let the warriors You have called rise up to fulfill their calling and purpose, and be fearless and victorious in every battle. Lord, we thank You for You never make any mistake and no one can set oneself against You because You accomplish all things in Your perfect time and perfect will. Abba Father, today we come together before You to pray with our local pastors and their congregations; thank You for giving them the burden to watch and pray. Lord, let those in power and their teams perform their daily tasks with ability, wisdom, and a sense of humour. Bless especially their spoken and written words to be wise and pertinent, that no one can find fault with them. Grant them superior leadership abilities to bring the country back from a state of turmoil to a solid foundation. Lead the country and the world back to Your grace and purpose. We thank You and praise You!
In the name of Jesus, 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.]
The Republic of Austria, Commonly Known as Austria
[Country Profile: Austria, a landlocked country in Central Europe, has historically been classified as a country in Western Europe or Eastern Europe. The capital and the largest city is Vienna with a population of over 1.7 million. Austria is a mountainous country with only 32% of the country’s land below 500 meters above the sea level; the highest peak reaches 3,798 meters. Austria is one of the richest countries in the world today. At the same time, she has been a member of the European Union since 1995 and is one of the founding members of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Austria was the core of the Habsburgs Dynasty that ruled Central Europe from 650 to 1918. It was the capital of the Holy Roman Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Austria was a place of residence for the Germanic people in the same German-speaking region that includes Germany, Switzerland, and Luxembourg. Historically, she has had a close relationship with Hungary, the Czech Republic and Poland in Central and Eastern Europe.
Today, Austria is a semi-presidential representative democracy with nine federal states. The President is the Head of State of Austria and is directly elected by the national election every six years. The president is responsible for nominating the chancellor, who is usually the leader of the largest party in the parliament. Currently the federal president is Alexander van der Belen and the chancellor is Sebastian Kurtz.
Religion: More than 74% of Austrians believe in Christianity, with 59.9% Roman Catholic, 6% Orthodox,3.5% Protestant Lutheran, and 4% other Protestant. Other religions include Islam (6%), Buddhism, Hinduism, etc.(according to Wikipedia). Among the 8.8 million people in Austria, the Muslim population is about 600,000. Most Austrian Muslims are of Turkish and Bosnian ancestries.
On June 8, 2018, the Austrian government issued a statement to close seven mosques in the country and expel 60 Imams (Islamic religious leaders). Austrian Deputy Prime Minister Heinz-Christian Strache said that the expulsion of Islamic militants and foreign-funded religious groups was only “a beginning.”
According to Reuters, a mosque in Vienna, influenced by Turkish nationalist youth groups, will be closed along with six other mosques. The Turkish-Islamic Cultural Association (ATIB) is closely related to the Turkish government. 60 of the Imams belonging to the organization may be deported or denied extensions of their residency permit because they have accepted foreign funds. In 2015, Austria passed the Islamic Act, which prohibits foreign funding of religious groups in Austria and stipulates that Muslim groups have an obligation to “have a basic positive attitude towards the (Austrian) state and society”. Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said: “Political Islam parallelism and radicalization tend to have no place in our country.” When he served as immigration minister, he enacted the Islamic Act.]
Abba Father,
- Confession and Repentance: Austria has beautiful cathedrals which now have become sightseeing spots with outside beauty, but there is no real worship in them. We confess our sin before You. Forgive the Church for not preaching the gospel and not being grounded and rooted in truth. There is merely an empty form with the Church who has lost her first love towards You. While enjoying the prosperity You bless the country with, the people have forgot You the one God who rewards all grace . Father, forgive the people for loving the world and the lust of the flesh, for losing influences to make the country and the people firmly adhere to the Christian faith. We ask for Your forgiveness.
- Pray for the people: Lord, we ask You to awaken the people so that they no longer sleep and remain indifferent but rather stand in their duties as Christians to guard the country, the society, and their family. Give the government the wisdom to manage the refugees, to help the refugees take care of themselves and their families and assist them in finding appropriate jobs, so that they can integrate into the country and the people with respect and peace. We also pray for the people of Austria. Lord, we ask You to keep them steadfast in the Christian faith, not being misled by the Muslims, but rather to lead Muslim believers to grasp how wide and long and high and deep the love of God is, to know the love of the cross of Christ and the power of redemption that takes away the sin of the world, so that the Muslims understand that knowing Christ is eternal life.
- Pray for the Church: Abba Father, we ask You to awaken Your children so that they are no longer lukewarm but rather are ignited by the fire of love and regain the enthusiasm towards the Lord, pursuing You and seeking Your face with hunger. May the churches teach the truth and align with God. May God’s love and glory fill the Church so that the world will see the revival. The life of believers are renewed and they manifest the true love, loving God and loving others. Give them boldness to preach the gospel to the Muslims and convert them into Christians to enjoy the love of the Father and give all the glory to God.
- Pray for the President and the Chancellor: Abba Father, we thank you for Chancellor Sebastian Kurz for all his determinations made according to Your will. May You strengthen him and keep him. We pray that you give the president, the chancellor, and the government officials wisdom and tactics to lead the people in Your will. We pray that You strengthen the leaders of the country to be courageous in Your love, that they may eradicate all the threats of paganism to the security of the people of the country, that they may ban all pagan worships and sacrifice activities. Instead of being under any pagan assimilation, they will fear the Lord in their heart, obey the truth of Christ, and exalt the name of Jesus. We declare that the Lord Jesus Christ reigns in Austria! The will of God is done in Austria as it is in heaven. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen!
Switzerland
- Pray for the president and government: Father, may Your salvation come upon the president and governmental officials of Switzerland, and rekindle the fire of revival in the hearts of the Christian leaders. May God show Himself to them, renew their spiritual life. We give thanks that You have blessed the “Federal Council” and all the officials in the past, and established Switzerland as a rich and stable nation. May God continue to reign in the hearts of the president and governmental officials of Switzerland, give them humility to rely on Your wisdom and strategies, to rule the nation according to God’s loving faithfulness and righteousness and justice, launch international peace plans and humanitarian aid programs and to be a blessing to the nations.
- Pray for the church and Christians: Father God, please forgive the lukewarmness of the church and Christians of Switzerland in the recent years, who lost the first love to seek after the Lord in their richness. May the fire of love of the Holy Spirit once again provoke the church and God’s children, that they may rediscover the passion from the Reformation, to watch and pray, and strengthen those who are weak, that they may be faithful unto death and hold onto the word of eternal life. May God reignite the fire of revival, for the churches to be in deeper unity, to establish united prayer altars, to send missionaries preaching salvation, and lead many Christians and youth who are lost back to Christ.
- Pray for Muslims and unbelievers: Father, You want all to be saved, and none perishes. May You grant salvation to the Muslims in Switzerland and those who come from other nations who have never heard of the gospel. May the eyes of the hearts be opened, to overcome the obstacles of multi-ethnicity and cultures, that they may hear the good news of Christ’s salvation in this free and stable nation, to experience the love and power of God, to abandon all idolatry and the bondage of sins, to be born again and saved.

May they be graceful to God’s people and protect Christian religion freedom.
Pray for President Trump:

- Pray for Vice President Mike Pence and all Christian government officials who are godly and loving the Lord. May God continue to keep them and their families safe and healthy, to be able to manage the affairs of the states according to God’s will and be kind to God’s people. 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 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. Advocates believe that when on the “Seven Great Mountains” Christians can rise, exert influence, or even become leaders, they can change society. The seven major mountains are: Art Entertainment / Business / Religion / Media / Education / Family / Government.

We declare that God reigns over the media and all the channels in the airway; let all the sounds from the media be righteous sounds and let them align with the holiness and righteousness of God.

Urgent Prayers for Nations
Watch and Pray with high alert for Taiwan’s referendum
- Do you agree that marriage is defined as one man and one woman?
- Do you agree that homosexual education should not be implemented for underage children in the national education system?
- Do you agree to protect the rights of two people of the same sex to live together without changing the definition of marriage as one man and one woman?
- Confess and repent for Taiwan: The body of Christ and the churches in Taiwan stand together, to ask the Lord to give us grace and the spirit of supplication to earnestly pray for Taiwan, to watch and pray! We repent with identification prayer for homosexuality, because legalizing same sex marriage is a great sin, that grieves Your heart deeply, please forgive us! “Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Cor. 6:9-10). Have mercy on Taiwan, breathe on to the churches that are still asleep, awaken the churches to repent completely, to be transformed, to turn back from their sins and turn their hearts back to You.
- Establish a united prayer altar and a prayer firewall: Ask God to keep the blazing fire of prayer burning, so the church in Taiwan will hold on to the promise of 2 Chronicles 7:14 , stand in the gap with one heart and one mind, and intercede for Taiwan. Ask God to fight for Taiwan personally, so that God’s forgiveness and redemptive grace will come, release Taiwan from the idolatry and the bondage of evil forces, and repent and self-cleanse for the heart of men, society, government, and the country, and ask God to give breakthroughs and to help Taiwan to enter into a brand new spiritual condition, and receive spiritual breakthrough.
- Let the referendum pass smoothly: God, please stop every work of the enemies want to “steal, kill, destroy”, and every political power that try to interfere to turn to nothing, so that all the people can agree and defend the marriage is of one man and one woman family value established by God through the referendum, to protect the next generation from fornication.
- Protect the Executive Team: God, please protect especially for the execution team. Facing strong spiritual battles, not with flesh, without gap, join together in unity, Lord, cover and keep the members of executive team healthy in their body and their hearts and minds.
- Send the fire of revival: Father God, send the fire of revival, strengthen the church to make an impact, and to rise up and spread the gospel more quickly, and help Taiwan to accelerate into her destiny. May Your will be done in Taiwan as it is in heaven, Your glory will come to Taiwan. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
- Deliver smoothly the Petition letters of signatures with positive reports from the mainstream media: by 8/28, all petitions of signatures need to be sent to the Central Election commission and hold a Press Conference. Ask the Lord to protect and give the delivery process in complete smoothness, and prepare large flocks of reporters from the mainstream media to render positive coverage.
- Bless the Third phase (the voting phase) with strategy: ask the Lord to bless the third stage(which is the voting phase) with strategic plans, so more people will join the social media “Life circles of the Line”(please click here), and through the life circles of Line to forward the information so more people can know the Love family referendum. Also ask the Lord to lead all churches to join the “street sweeping” activities of setting up street booths or street visitation. Encourage people to join Line life circles to exert the influences from human networking. One can influence 20 people. And invite the people to cast their vote of support on Nov 24th.
California Bill AB2943 – ‘Unlawful Business Practices: Sexual-Orientation- Change Efforts’ (‘Conversion Therapy Practices’)
[Current Event: ‘THE BILL MUST BE APROVED BY AUGUST 31, 2018 OR IT IS DEAD.’ One official warned at the debate for AB2943: ‘WHAT HAPPENS IN CALIFORNIA DOESN’T STAY THERE, IF BILL AB2943 PASSES, YOU CAN GUARANTEE IT WILL BE COMING TO YOUR STATE WHERE YOU LIVE SOONER OR LATER.’ AB2943 is the historical bill American forced to face today but for Christians, we know God’s Council will intervene on our behalf.
AB2943 is presented based on a person’s (Mr. Evan Low) emotional traumatized experience at childhood with hope to correct his gender-behavior identity through therapy. His ‘pain and suffering’ internalized at the course of ‘Conversion Therapy’ and lodged deeply until older. Today, he speaks also for a like-mind community with the purpose to abolish biblical fundamental truth and help about homosexuality (though not emphasized), the ‘Conversion Therapy Practice (Professionals)’.
With various testimonies from successful ex-genders, and few advocates from religious conservative organizations…amplifying “it’s a blatant attack on the First Amendment on free speech, on the free exercise of religion.’
AB2943 aimed to shut down biblical fundamental truth, counseling and to silent the biblical voice completely. It is the enemy’s tactic using emotion to manipulate justice and decision, thus also terminate successful ‘conversion therapy’ for others.
It will also abolish religious rights, material, businesses, personal, social, home, groups, assemblies, related practices, counseling, truths, churches functions, etc.
Though the bill is ‘POSSIBLLY’ voted in by Assembly on 8/27/2018, must be concluded by 8/31/2018 or it would be cancelled’, this is the time that we trust in God that fight for us, by following God’s command, to execute our duties, to pull out the root of the lies and deception. We reject this unrighteous bill to become law in California or any states in America. This law is based on deception, using emotional and mental state confusion to twist the true identity of man.
We believed the needs for these people are imminent and urgent…like God’s love, salvation, healing and deliverance for their body, soul and mind.
We pray:
- Father, We bring these lost souls, who are plagued by gender identity, struggling in pains and loneliness, to the mercy seat of the Lord, and ask You to heal their broken souls, through the power of the Lord Jesus’ blood that they may be born again and saved，spirit, soul and body. We ask You to open their hearts to receive the love of healing power. We pray that they will quickly understand their calling and destiny, and they will love You with all their hearts, souls, and efforts.
- We present AB2943 to the Court of Heaven, we pray the judgment is rendered in favor of the saints. We plead the powerful Blood of Jesus to reverse with God’s unchanging truth and Power.
- We pray that 8/27/2018 and beyond are God’s appointed time, carried by the incense of the saints, in the Spirit of Truth and God’s sovereign Will. We pray for the reversal of ungodly decisions.
- ‘For we are not fighting against flesh and blood, but against evil rulers and authority of the unseen world, against mighty powers in the dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. Eph. 6:12) Lord of Host, in Your Powerful Name, we come against the unclean force hovering over the region, we proclaim Jehovah reigns in the Land. By forgiveness of sins… for California, in north, south, east and west.…….the closing of illegal entrances and releases of new angelic armies here to bind, to combat, to destroy lay lines over the land, over spirits of arsons, fire, addiction, witchcraft, occults, unholy sacrifices, drunkenness, lust, perversion, antagonism, disaster-prone, insubordination, disorders, pharmakia, mind-control, rejection, lawlessness. Blindness, and deafness, lying and death.
- Lord, we lift up Mr. Evan Low, who is pressing AB2943 based on his emotional encounter, please grant him mercy to forgive with peace and love, let him be comforted and ministered by Your Love, to receive the resurrected life of Jesus.
Thank you Jesus for Your unchanging love and promise, peace and victory. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
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:
- Sent Your spirit of repentance into Israel, to save the souls of Israel.
- Holy Spirit send Your fire, to cleanse Israel, especial the heart of the people in the places and their residents where the gay parade had passed through.
- Replace the wrong and twisted concept of same sex marriage, with the Truth of the bible and the godly marriage value, so the one husband and one wife, one man and one woman, can be fully restored in Israel!
- 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)
Proactive Prayer for the US New Middle East Peace Program
[Current Affairs update: 8/22 Jerusalem Post talks about what President Trump recently said at the West Virginia Congress: “The Palestinians will soon get very good things,” which caused a lot of speculation and confusion. The US National Security Adviser Bolton made the following clarification for President Trump on August 22:
- The United States moved the embassy to Jerusalem without any exchange conditions (No ‘quid pro quo ‘ in Jerusalem embassy move);
- The Trump administration’s Middle East peace plan has no published timetable;
- The Palestinians have been used by their radical leaders for years as agents for their own political purposes. When the peace plan is launched, the Palestinians will find that the Trump administration wants to give them an opportunity to live a decent life;
- Jerusalem is the focus of negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. As President Trump stated on 8/21 that since US Embassy moved to Jerusalem, it has taken this issue off the negotiating table. As a trader, he (President Trump) will expect the Palestinians to say, “Okay, great, we didn’t get that, now we want something else.”
Proactive Prayer: “Let God be true, and every human being a liar.” (Romans 3:4). Let us use God’s words to proactively pray for the Middle East peace process, and President Trump’s Middle East peace plan, following closely the truth and the promise of God’s words, so we will not be deceived by the words of man, or the lies of the media.”
- He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end (Isaiah 9:6b-7a) In the name of Jesus we declare, the Savior Jesus Christ is the only prince of peace, the sacred peacemaker and defender for Israel and the Palestinians, so whether you are a Israelite or a Palestinian, come to know, acknowledge, believe, depend on, and simply rely on Jesus the Messiah as your only Prince of Peace, Amen!
- For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility. He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. (Ephesians 2:14-18) In the name of the Jesus we declare, let the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross, be done in Israel and in the territory of the Palestinians. He has destroyed the hostility between the two, every ethnic groups in Israel is to be reconciled to God by the Lord Jesus Christ and the Cross, to become one body, a new creation, to achieve peace, to be moved by the same Holy Spirit, to go before the Heavenly Father, to become the son and daughter of the supreme God of peace, Amen!
-
For your Maker is your husband—the Lord Almighty is his name – the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth ………Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion on you (Isaiah 54: 5, 10) Israel, Israel, your maker is your husband, the LORD Almighty is His name; the Holy Ones of Israel is your redeemer, He will be called the God of the earth, and He will be called the God of every Palestine, Arabs and all the nations that have turned to God and covered by the precious blood of the lamb of God. The mountains can be shaken and the hills be moved, and every difficulties and obstacles can be removed, yet God’s unfailing love for you, Israel, will not be shaken nor His covenant of peace be removed. The covenant of peace of the Lord will not be moved. . In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!
-
“and say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will take the Israelites out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from all around and bring them back into their own land. 22 I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel. There will be one king over all of them and they will never again be two nations or be divided into two kingdoms. (Ezek. 37:21-22) In the name of the Jesus we declare, Israel who has returned for seventy years , was gathered by the Lord of Hosts from all nations and from around the world to their land. It is the Lord of Hosts who lead them back to the land, to be a nation on the hill of Israel, the Messiah Jesus will be their king, the one and only King of the people, whether they are Jews, Palestinians, Arabs or any other tribe. They will no longer be divided into two countries, never again, Amen!
- The Lord will have compassion on Jacob; once again he will choose Israel and will settle them in their own land.Foreigners will join them and unite with the descendants of Jacob (Isaiah 14:1) In the name of Jesus Christ , the Lord has compassion on Jacob, once again He will choose Israel and will settle them in the land He has promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, The people of the nations will join them and unite with the descendants of Jacob. Amen!
- Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.(Matthew 6:9-10) In the name of Jesus Christ we declare, Israel will exult the Holy name of the Lord God. The Palestinians and Arabs will also exult the Holy name of the Lord God. The people from all over the world will exult the Holy name of the Lord God. The Lord has supreme reign in the peace process in the Middle East, in the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians and the kingdom of God would come on earth. God’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven, and any peace plan proposal on earth, and any peace plan in the negotiations, must be aligned with the will of God, the Lord of Hosts in its content and timing. Amen!
In addition, we continue to offer gratitude and prayers for the Trump administration’s Israeli policy and efforts in the Middle East peace process:
- President Trump continues to help Israel unconditionally: God said in Isaiah 44:28, who says of Cyrus, ‘He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please; he will say of Jerusalem, “Let it be rebuilt,” and of the temple, “Let its foundations be laid.” In the name of Jesus, pray for President Trump, because he is a servant of God, all his decisions are aligned with God’s will, He will continue to help Israel unconditionally and to protect Israel!
- Do not divide the promised land of God: In the name of Jesus, the land of God’s promise and the holy city of the God of Jerusalem will not be a bargaining chip for peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.
- For the benefits of the Palestinians: Thank God for making President Trump’s intention to benefit the Palestinians. May God’s heart for the Palestinians be done.
- The United States continues to bless Israel: Ask God to continue to raise up counselors around President Trump, those who fear God and understand the minds of God, so United States will walk in God’s plan, to stand with Israel, continue to be God’s blessing to Israel, and be blessed by God!
- Bless the peace plan team, dedicated to the Lord: In the name of Jesus, bless President Trump, his son-in-law Kushner and the team responsible for the Middle East peace plan. May they seek the Lord, not relying on their own understanding, in all their ways, they will acknowledge God。 Jehovah, the Lord of Hosts will guide Israel and the Palestinians, and the road to peace in the Middle East, Amen!
