Friday, February 11, 2022 – The 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call
“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 # (Ongoing call…24 hours a day!)
We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us,
that we should be called children of God!”
1 John 3:1
We sing: My Tribute
How can I say thanks for the things You have done for me?
Things so undeserved, yet You gave, to prove Your love for me.
The voices of a million angels could not express my gratitude.
All that I am and ever hope to be, I owe it all to Thee!
To God be the glory! To God be the glory! To God be the glory for the things He has done!
With His Blood He has saved me, with His power He has raised me.
To God be the glory for the things He has done!
Just let me live my life, let it be pleasing, Lord, to Thee and if I gain any praise, let it go to Calvary!
With His Blood He has saved me, with His power He has raised me.
To God be the glory for the things He has done!
~~~
The key assignment for the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call is to intercede hourly
for the safety and security of our duly elected President, Donald John Trump,
and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for his protection, for our First Lady, Melania, and their marriage
and for all the members of their family. We cover them all with the Blood of Jesus.
In every situation and decision, let our President be led by the Holy Spirit, so that he learns the truth and acts accordingly, for the good of the nation.
Pray.
That as the REDEMPTION of the AMERICAN REPUBLIC takes place, those leaders that God anoints and appoints will take their places in the governments of each state and in our nation’s Capitol!
Pray.
Strategic Focus for Friday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
THE REDEMPTION OF THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC – Part 42
“There is no truth in any part of your story. You are making up the whole thing.
They were just trying to intimidate us, imagining that they could discourage us and stop the work.
So I continued the work with even greater determination.”
Nehemiah 6:8-9 (NLT)
Tuesday evening, we prayed for all the athletes competing in the Olympics, and again, we committed no spend #NotOneMinute! watching the coverage on TV. The low ratings are hitting them directly in the pocketbook. Thus far, the 2022 Beijing Olympics being carried by NBC have been an absolute financial flop, and the opening ceremony this year hit an all-time low.. Viewership plunged 43% from the opening ceremony for the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea, which had 23.8 million people watching. Pray.
Reports are of conditions for athletes in Beijing being “beyond brutal” in every imaginable way! Athletes from all over the world went to Communist China in hopes of representing their countries on the world stage. But no one expected things to be as bad as they are in the Olympic village.
- Reports have surfaced about freezing cold conditions, and no regard for the safety of athletes. Plummeting temperatures are usually a given at the Games, but the Swedish delegation has urged that the cross-country skiing events be held earlier in the day when athlete Frida Karlsson was seen shaking and close to collapse at the end of the women’s skiathlon. Pray.
- The food for the athletes at the Olympic games is subpar. German Alpine skiing coach Christian Schwaiger reports that the dining options are not only limited, but they also present a challenge to keeping the Olympians fueled for competition. They are just being given snacks, while being forced to stay on freezing ski slopes all day. No hot food at all. Team USA officials, possibly recognizing the poor catering of the Chinese organizers, brought a surplus of food, including bags of pasta, to Beijing. Coach Schwaiger said. “There are no hot meals. There are crisps, some nuts and chocolate, and nothing else. This shows a lack of focus on high-performance sport.” Pray.
- Polish speed skater Natalia Maliszewska was placed in a Covid ward after testing positive, and, even though she showed no symptoms, she was forced to stay there. The Chinese Olympic officials held her against her will because of China’s insane zero-Covid policy, and she doesn’t know if they are giving her accurate test results. Another skeleton racer, 25-year-old Belgian Kim Meylemans, was taken to a quarantine facility after testing COVID positive upon arrival in Beijing, and was finally released after recording a tearful video that went out on Instagram. Pray.
- Skater Maliszewska missed the 500m short track event on Saturday, and was kept in a Beijing isolation ward.. “I have been living in fear…I cry until I have no more tears and make not only the people around me worry, but myself, too.” I slept in my clothes in my bed because I was afraid that at any moment someone would take me back to isolation. I have to get back to the Olympic Village as soon as possible,” she added. “I can’t understand this anymore. I no longer believe in any tests, any Olympics. To me this is a big joke, I hope whoever is managing this has a lot of fun. My heart and my mind can’t take this anymore.” Pray.
This is how China is treating Olympic athletes, their supposed “guests”. Imagine if you were an enemy of China. Imagine the Uyghur concentration camps. Pray.
“I have no more tears” – Polish speed skater Natalia Maliszewska
The faux Biden administration has placed our athletes “in harm’s way” not only by the obvious abuses by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) but through the forces of darkness that are operating behind, and in collusion with the spirits behind the Olympic games! Pray.
As spiritual leaders, it is our duty to expose the real roots of this “enterprise.” Let us read and pray into this explanation offered by Helena Bos, of the Netherlands, prior to the Olympics held in Athens.
~~~
For these days, in the time that the restoration of all things is getting closer, Satan will work harder to keep people, nations and cities, and also this continent, in bondage to himself. We can see that he has devised a special strategy. One strong effort to bring this about, and not just for this continent, but worldwide, has been, and is it again through the Olympics Games! So far many have been quite unaware of how subtle this strategy has been over the last 100 years. However, through the 2004 Olympics in Athens, the strategy is becoming quite obvious. Pray.
This paragraph deals with the revival in paganism that the committee of the Olympic games pursues this next summer in Greece. Under the design for these games, we recognize a brilliantly evil strategy, to cover humanity even stronger under the influence of Satan himself. We must leave open the possibility that all, or at least, some of the Olympic Committee may not even be aware themselves of the underlying strategy…that their minds are just blinded by the god of this age who himself designed the strategy.
“…whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe,
lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.”
2 Corinthians.4:4
Pray.
Though never very interested in the Olympics, nevertheless I had noticed that there were elements in the Games that were mythological or new age. However, when I heard that schoolchildren in Greece had to learn the Olympic Hymn and that the content was adoration of a Greek god, I did some research and became alarmed. I now understand it as a renewed attempt to strengthen the darkness over Europe, even over the entire world. I even wonder now if not the celebrations of the Olympics during the last century, meant to be a revival of the pagan festival, strongly contributed to the darkness that came over the world, and especially over the western world. Pray.
The original Olympics. The Olympic Games as we know them now, are named after the ancient Olympics, in Greece. It is assumed that those started in 776 BC.
- They were held every four years, dedicated to Zeus of Olympia. In that place stood a temple for him with a huge, 14 m. high, ivory and golden statue of him, that was considered to be one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
- The name for the games was of course derived from that place, which is on the west coast of Greece, about 150 km from Athens.
- Those games were always a religious festival. There were more athletic festivals, dedicated to other gods, but the one to Zeus became the most significant. Priests and priestesses were leading the festival.
- Before and during the Olympiad sacrifices were made, also human sacrifices. It was (therefore!) a covenant-making event. Pray.
These annual “Olympics” continued till AD 391 when the emperor Theodosius banned the Olympic games as pagan practices, and the temple for Zeus was ordered closed. A fire destroyed the statue in AD 462 (in Constantinople, to where it was transported), and the temple was destroyed by fire in the fifth century AD.
The revival of the Olympics. In 1896 Pierre de Coubertin, a Frenchman, had the vision to revive the antique Olympics, and organize worldwide athletic competitions, and give them also the name “Olympics.”
- He established the Olympic Charter, which describes the goal of the Olympic Movement: “to contribute to building a peaceful and better world by educating youth through sport practiced without discrimination of any kind and in the Olympic spirit, which requires mutual understanding with a spirit of friendship, solidarity, and fair play.” Pray.
That Olympic Spirit, also called “Olympism,” is a spirit of humanism. It desires to build a peaceful and better world, without recognizing that we humans have no good in ourselves and that we in our own strength can never make a better world. It is through the substitutionary sacrifice of Jesus Christ that people can be changed, not through Olympism. Pray.
In the stated goal of the Olympic Games, there was an intended merging of the classical (religious, pagan!) past with the national present (of 1896). Observers at that time noticed the ritual elements connected to the (bombastic) Olympic Hymn: The current translation was adopted in 1957. It reads
Immortal spirit of antiquity, Father of the true, beautiful and good,
Descend, appear, shed over us thy light
Upon this ground and under this sky which has fits witnessed by unperishable fame.
Give life and animation to those noble games!
Throw wreaths of fadeless flowers to the victors in the race and in the strife!
Create in our breasts, hearts of steel!
In thy light, plains, mountains and seas shine in a roseate hue and form a vast temple
to which all nations throng to adore thee, Oh immortal spirit of antiquity!
Obviously, this is not a song to the Lord God, but a song to the one whose name always was connected with the Olympic Games, Zeus! It is a song that summons the powers (demonic) to inhabit the games!
- It has been sung by now at many of the 24 Olympic Games, and the Olympic Winter Games.
- In 1896 it was sung in Greek, maybe this was the case for the other Olympics as well.
- Did we, the Christians not notice, because of the language, the pagan content of the song before?
- Or did we consider it to be a “folkloristic,” an archaic specialty that was just funny, but not really important?
- Whatever, it was not funny at all. In 1896 Charles Beck wrote: ”That hymn, sung in the open air in full sunshine, in the presence of tens of thousands of spectators, moved with emotion, has something of especial worthiness.”
Pray.
We have to realize that visitors in the stadiums at all those games have, “moved with emotion,” admiringly swallowed this blasphemous song, and have so come also under this power. Letting ourselves become impressed and admiring it, is in a certain way an act of worship. This creates in us an opening for spiritual influence. Those that, in stadiums, in front of TV’s, had this admiring attitude were subsequently influenced by these demonic powers, in their spirit, mind, and body. Pray.
This song will be sung as the opening hymn again. This has spread darkness over the last 100 years and it is meant to spread this again, and when, through TV, people all over the world allow this “prayer” to enter their homes, it will spread more darkness over the nations, and the peoples. This verse is an end-time prophecy, and we can see it being fulfilled.
“See, darkness covers the earth, and thick darkness is over the peoples…”
Isaiah 60:2
Pray
INTERCESSORS’ RESPONSIBILITY, WITH REGARD TO THE OLYMPICS. In short, I mention the following:
- May I urge Christians in all nations where the flame once was lighted and will be lighted now, to stand up against the renewal or establishing of the covenant, through the lighting of the flame? We can speak out to the Lord and to the powers in the heavenlies that we only desire to enter the true covenant with the Father, the Sovereign Lord, and the God of Israel, through the eternal sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Pray.
- I do believe that the scheme for this event is so evil that we need to take this up with the church and prayer leaders we know and come to a strategy in order to resist through prayer (and fasting) and proclamation, this attempt of the devil to bind nations (again) in a wrong covenant. Such a covenant prevents us, personally, but also our people group, our nation, to enter into the true covenant with the Lord God. Pray.
- Let also God’s people withstand the rekindling of the fire, when the torch-run visits their nation. Pray.
- The “renewal” of covenants is, again, handling enormous spiritual instruments and the enemy knows the power of it. It will bring disaster to the nations involved. A wrong covenant (that is: covenanting a forbidden partner) brings a curse from God. Pray.
- By honoring Zeus, in the past, on the occasion of the Olympic Games, held 28 times, and the winter games, held 24 times, demonic powers were released over the earth. Now, in a very explicit way and with the purpose of reviving paganism, again demonic powers will be released and strengthened all over the world. These are spiritual dynamics of international scale (and designed to be so!). Pray.
- Watching or visiting the Olympics can, is my strong conviction, for Christians no longer be entertainment. In Israel the Lord hated to see statues of other “gods’, they were an abomination to Him. We grieve Him when we pay attention to idolatrous elements that are an integral part of the ceremonies and the games, and that honor the one who came to rob, kill, and destroy everyone and everything that God created. Jesus came and gave his life to fight the devil, and to overcome sin. How can we watch the religious ceremonies designed to honor the devil? Pray.
- Also listening to the worldwide broadcasted opening hymn to, in fact, Satan, will defile us. Becoming “impressed” with the song and/or the rituals is in fact an act of worship, which creates an opening to the demonic power that emanates from the whole event. Pray.
- We cannot allow ourselves to be naive. We need to know if we should watch any part of the games, and if so, which part. The Scriptures give clear instructions about taking part in idolatrous celebrations, see Deuteronomy 12 &13. “Enjoying “ these defiled games IS, in my understanding, taking part in a religious idolatrous festival. Pray.
- We need to withstand in the spirit the messages of the song and the character of the games, by declaring “in the heavenlies”, say prayerfully, that the song and the event are a blasphemous and terrible sin, that Jesus is the Lord, and that only He and the Father are worthy of our praises. Pray.
- We need to pray for protection through the blood of Jesus over our own spirit, mind and body and of our loved ones, our house, city, church and nation. Pray.
- We need to pray for those who will be reaching out with the gospel, at the time of the games. Pray.
- Pray for those who have a hunger in their hearts to find the truth, which they only can find in the Savior. May many people become disgusted with the pagan substitutes that the Olympic committee treats them with. Pray.
- That those organizations that are supporting the Olympics in China, and paying the Chinese Communist Party to do so, will suffer losses economically that will let them know that they are “on the wrong side of history!” (Airbnb, Alibaba Group, Allianz, Atos, Bridgestone, Coca-Cola, Intel, Omega SA, Panasonic, Proctor & Gamble, Samsung, Toyota, Visa, Snickers, Hylink, Pricewaterhouse Coopers). Pray.
- That the US government will state our position on the genocide taking place in China, and make it clear that we will NOT kowtow to the Chinese communist party. Pray.
- That this will prove to be a “financial debacle” as people turn the Olympics OFF in their homes and businesses! Pray.
- For the light of Christ to flood our nation, and the nations, bringing powerful and peaceful solutions to the matters causing them to consider plans of aggression! Pray.
- That You will protect our nation from being drawn into another war, especially one that is being orchestrated by those global powers who make their money through conflict! Pray.
- That our homes will get in order so that they might be places for His HABITATION and sanctuaries for others! Pray.
