“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 #
We will not tolerate any demonic interference on the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call.
In taking measures to protect and defend our 24/7 family, at the top of every hour,
the facilitator, in agreement with those on the line, will bind all forces of evil and cast them down into the abyss, then pray a shield of protection over this line and our 24/7 family!
*The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly for the safety and security of our President Donald John Trump and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for our President’s protection and we cover him with the Blood of Jesus.
We bless our First Lady, Melania, their son Barron and each of their family members.
We cover our Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen and their family
and all those serving in this Administration.
We also bless the members of the Federal Reserve Board along with those who are part of our nation’s banking system which impacts our economy! May Jerome H. Powell, Richard H. Clarida,
Randal K. Quarles, Michelle W. Bowman, and Lael Brainard serve with integrity and honor!
We pray for all those on the front lines of the LIFE battle, particularly Cindy Collins, Allan Parker, Alveda King, our Governors, our State Legislators, the Supreme Court, our President,
and all those who have been conceived in rape or through incest or are abortion survivors!
Let healing come to all who have been affected by the sin of abortion!
The 24/7 NSPC is calling the Body of Christ nationwide to pray for the 2020 National Elections,
mobilizing intercessors and positioning ourselves in prayer before the Lord
on behalf of our President and nation!
COUNTDOWN: 481 days until the election!
Let us pray into this verse:
“The evil will bow before the good, and the wicked at the gates of the righteous.”
Proverbs 14:19
Praising God for a resolution to the census issue! President Trump issued an Executive Order yesterday which will enable us to utilize our vast national databases, and free up information sharing among all federal agencies, in order to determine the citizenship status of the United States population. Amen! Let it be done!
Strategic Focus for Friday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Anarchy in the House
“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.”
Proverbs 14:12
“Anarchy” is defined as “a state of disorder due to absence or nonrecognition of authority; lawlessness, absence of government, mobocracy, revolution, insurrection, riot, rebellion, mutiny, disorganization, misrule, chaos, tumult, turmoil, mayhem, pandemonium.” It offers nothing good, and always yields deadly results!
This “disorder” is rearing its ugly head through the Democrat party, as members daily advocate for that which is evil and destructive to this nation… including abortion, open borders and all forms of perversion. They are openly and intentionally flaunting the very laws of God and of humanity upon which this nation was built!
Today, we’ll take a look inside the mind of one such person…Saikat Chakrabarti (From Sanskrit “cakravarti” means “emperor”…literally “wheels rolling”…metaphorically, it denotes a ruler whose chariot wheels roll everywhere without obstruction (cakra ‘wheel’ + vart ‘to roll or turn’). He was the co-founder of an organization called Brand New Congress, whose goal was to launch hundreds of “progressive” candidates into congressional races, to defeat moderates and gain control of the party. Only one of their candidates emerged from that process…Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Today, Chakrabarti, who deserves much of the credit for recruiting AOC to run for office, is her chief of staff!
AOC is the “poster child” for the demanding Green New Deal wing of the climate struggle. After reading that Gov. Jay Inslee (D-WA) was running for president on a platform of combating global warming, she tweeted that Inslee’s “climate plan is the most serious + comprehensive one to address our crisis in the 2020 field.” Chakrabarti said that “the Green New Deal wasn’t originally a climate thing at all”… they think of it as a “how do you change the entire economy thing.”
When it comes to a nationwide economic mobilization, there’s more to come. Their key components are “justice” elements…and ensuring every community’s got a part. Nationwide economic mobilization. Justice. Community…“buzz words” for progressives…and an indication of just how far inside establishment Washington the progressive movement has reached.
We pray:
- For those holding an “anarchist” mentality, who think nothing of using “bait and switch” techniques needed to achieve the ends to which they feel they must go to overturn this nation’s foundations and morals! Breakthrough their darkness, Lord, and set them free to serve Your purposes for this nation!
Chakrabarti with Ocasio-Cortez
Ocasio-Cortez’ priorities and approaches are a clear expression of the way the progressive movement is operating in Congress today. She has millions of Twitter followers, and is supported by the prejudices of countless “haters”. As her “gatekeeper” and chief of staff, Chakrabarti (33) models a “new type” on Capitol Hill: the “movement” chief of staff. The son of immigrants from India, he graduated from Harvard, worked as a techie for a hedge fund, then moved to San Francisco in 2009, where he co-founded Mockingbird, a web design tool. Chakrabarti had shared an idealism with those who went to the Bay Area to change the world through technology, but he was soon disenchanted, as he found himself working 70 hours a week, eating dinner at the office, then going to work out each night! There had to be more to life!
He hadn’t thought his answers would come through political engagement but changed his mind as he saw the enthusiastic reaction to Bernie Sanders’ campaign. Chakrabarti went from being a politically disengaged techie to a fired-up activist to an insurgent insider. Let’s define these terms to see the progression:
- “Disengaged” – revealing a lack of interest through tardiness, absenteeism, and general lack of enthusiasm, resulting in lost productivity, higher turnover, and disproportionately high business costs.
- “Activist” – promoting, impeding, directing, or intervening in social, political, economic, or environmental reform with the desire to make changes in society.
- “Insurgent” – rising to active revolt; a rebel, revolutionary, mutineer, agitator, subversive, guerrilla, anarchist, terrorist, rioter, traitor, renegade, insurrectionist.
We pray:
- For all those who are truly destined to be “world changers”…called by You, Lord, to make a difference! Keep them safe from the seduction of worldly influence by drawing them close to You! We lift up all our youth in this nation, their giftings and dedicate them to You, for Your service! No King but Jesus!
Chakrabarti determined that the problem wasn’t more people voting Republican than Democrat…but that most people who would vote Democrat weren’t voting. He rejected the mainline thought for the current Democratic Party, that “to win this country, we need to tack to the hypothetical middle. What…that means is…you don’t take unnecessary risks, which translates to you don’t really do anything”. Instead, he said: “We’ve got a completely different theory of change, which is: You do the biggest, most badass thing you possibly can — and that’s going to excite people, and then they’re going to go vote.”
To enact that change, Chakrabarti and others from the Sanders campaign, reasoned that it was vital to transform Congress, so they formed a group called Brand New Congress. Its mission was to recruit hundreds of community leaders and working-class candidates to run on a vision of getting corporate money out of politics, tackling climate change, transforming the economy, providing health care for all, standing for racial justice and stemming mass incarceration.
Among the 10,000+ nominations for recruits was 29-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a bartender from the Bronx. At a gathering of their recruits, Chakrabarti declared: “We actually want to create that grass-roots-funded machine that can be a real opposition to the current institutional powers.” Revolution against the status quo was clear from the beginning, and he was steering this “ship”, driving the overall effort. Of 12 candidates sponsored, the only one who won was Ocasio-Cortez, whose campaign Chakrabarti had helped manage. Under the auspices of a liberal, far-left, socialist group, the Justice Democrats, also co-founded by Chakrabarti, additional candidates “who fit the bill” were supported, including progressives Ilhan Omar (MN), Ayanna Pressley (MA) and Rashida Tlaib (MI).
Chakrabarti says. “…we had no idea that one or two victories would have as much of an earth-shattering impact like AOC’s victory did. It was a learning experience to find out that Alexandria…Ilhan, Rashida and Ayanna, just by being strong leaders within Congress and continuing to act the way they did during the campaign…can actually move stuff so fast and so massively and so big.”
So it continues: this past Wednesday, the Justice Democrats endorsed two more Democrat primary challengers to House incumbents: Marie Newman, running against Rep. Daniel Lipinski (D-IL), and Cori Bush, challenging Rep. Wm. Lacy Clay (D-MO). They are also backing Betsy Sweet (D) to unseat incumbent Senator Susan Collins (R-ME). All three women support Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, free college, and ending mass incarceration and deportation. (Previously, they endorsed Jessica Cisneros, running against Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX) and Jamaal Bowman challenging Rep. Eliot Engel (D-NY). They are undeterred by a Democrat party policy that forbids support of primary challengers running against incumbent Democrats.)
We pray:
- That You would rescue those whose minds are blinded, who think they make the rules, who ride roughshod over others and “profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate” Titus 1:16
After she was elected, AOC has continued to recruit others for the Justice Democrats. Her office mission statement begins: “To boldly and decisively spur a people-led movement for social, racial, environmental and economic justice.” It boils down to: “Where do we actually want to see the world move to and the country move to… and how do we get from here to there?”
Chakrabarti believes that voters will turn out for bold ideas, big enough to tackle today’s crises of climate and inequality. It is the progressive wing versus the centrist wing of the Democratic Party.
- Centrists think the way to win is to focus on the middle (moderates) and try to win over Republicans.
- Progressives think the way to win is to mobilize and convince people to vote…for something… anything…as long as it’s something they are pushing!
He says: “Part of it is about pressuring these congress people and presidential candidates to go big, but also giving them the cover to do so. How do we help people develop a bit more of a backbone?”
Chakrabarti’s worldview is founded on his utter belief that the progressive vision is good for America…and that it is what most Americans actually want. When asked, what if he’s wrong, he said: “if it turns out that our hypothesis is wrong, that just means we need a different strategy...then okay, how do we reach the people in their district in a different way to present the ideas and try to persuade people that these are good ideas.”
We pray:
- For those who are foolish and refuse to listen to the Lord’s voice. Not wanting to take NO for an answer, they “kick the goads” trying to get a YES, which only results in more pain!
- When Jesus spoke to Saul, He said: “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.” Acts 26:14
- King David confessed his sin: “Thus my heart was grieved, (pricked in heart) and I was vexed in my mind. I was so foolish and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.” Psalm 73:20-21
Set them free, Lord, from their blindness likeSaul and their grief like David! Touch them and heal them.
If they will not respond to Your love, remove them from positions of influence and power, so they can do no more harm. Replace them with those who will lovingly serve you and our nation!

Specific Prayer Topic for Today
Praying for our Supreme Court and the Judicial System
We bring the Justices of our Supreme Court before You today, Lord, asking that while they are in recess, that they will have Divine encounters with You, and experience times of refreshing and restoration, so they might return for the next SCOTUS session renewed and ready to rule righteously on cases that come before them.
We pray:
- Touch and transform those who are willing to serve You, Lord, and remove those who will not!
