We begin our hour by praising and giving thanks to God!
“The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.”
Job 33:4
We sing: Breathe on me, Breath of God!
“Breathe on me, Breath of God, fill me with life anew,
that I may love the way you love, and do what you would do.
Breathe on me, Breath of God, until my heart is pure,
until my will is one with yours, to do and to endure.
Breathe on me, Breath of God, so shall I never die,
but live with you the perfect life for all eternity.”

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.
For a miraculous conclusion to the investigations into the 2020 elections,
and proof of fraud and collusion to remove Joe Biden (and company) and restore President Trump
to his rightful office so that he can lead this nation once again and work to restore the global balance!
Pray.
That Russian aggression in Ukraine will cease and war there will be ended.
Pray.
Strategic Focus for Monday
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 73
WAR in HEAVEN – Part 2b
“God sets the solitary in families; He brings out those who are bound into prosperity;
but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.”
Psalm 68:6
We are in the process of reviewing and praying into Derek Prince’s book War in Heaven, which teaches us about God’s epic battle with evil, and helps us to understand what we are dealing with today! Let us press in and learn from one of God’s Champions, and apply what we are being taught to our own lives!
Chapter 2 (continued) – LIFE IS A BATTLE!
How War Began For many years, I have pondered the background of the conflict in our world.
- What is the root cause of the warfare and unrest on every hand?
- Who are the opposing forces involved?
- We have seen that God is a military commander, and we are part of an army under His command. But what- and whom- is He fighting against?
Let me seek to answer the first question. The background, the root cause- of all unrest, conflict and war can be summed up in a single word: rebellion. This is the root problem of the universe: rebellion against the righteous government of God. Our world today is full of rebels. Pray.
We might think of it like this. Human problems can be depicted by the three main parts of a tree: branches, trunk and roots. I find that most people are preoccupied with the branches. If you are hoping to remove a tree, but just cut off a few branches, you have not really changed things very much. It is the trunk that carries the branches and the roots that feed the trunk.
- Consider the woman who becomes an alcoholic. The addiction to alcohol is just the symptom or branch. We need to get below that to the trunk and the roots – that is, her attitude and her relationship to her husband. Perhaps he has been unfaithful, spends the money in a way she does not approve of and emotionally abuses the children. The bitterness and resentment she has built up against her husband are the trunk and roots. We will never solve her problem by merely dealing with her alcoholism. We must deal with her attitude and relationship toward her husband. Is she willing to forgive him and receive him? If not, even if she gets rid of alcoholism, it will be followed by another addiction or similar problem. Pray.
The Church in general is grappling most of the time with branches. It does not normally get below that level and deal with the trunk, much less the roots. We must dig down to the root problem, and the root problem is rebellion. Pray.
In introducing to humanity the message of Jesus and the Gospel, John the Baptist makes a definitive statement: “And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire” Matthew 3:10. The message of the Gospel is radical; that is, it deals with the root. God is saying, in effect, “I am no longer content with merely cutting off the branches or even cutting down the trunk. I am dealing with the root, which is the will set in independence from Me.“ Independence in its turn inevitably becomes defiance. Pray.
Most contemporary presentations of the Gospel do not go deep enough. They do not deal with the sin of rebellion against God. We would be surprised to discover how many good church members all around us have never made a true submission to God. Look at the Lord’s Prayer, a very familiar passage of Scripture. Notice the opening phrases of this pattern prayer found in Matthew 6:9-10: “In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”
The opening phrases define the whole attitude and atmosphere of this prayer. First of all, we pray as members of one Body. We do not pray “my” Father, we pray “our” Father. There are other people besides ourselves involved in this relationship with God.
- One of the greatest problems people have is thinking that no one else has suffered what they are suffering! I hear it all the time: “Nobody else has ever suffered like this, Brother Prince. You don’t know what I have gone through!” So many people have told me exactly the same thing!
The Bible teaches us to regard ourselves as members together of one Body. The word “our” is very important: “Our Father.” We are reminded that we are sons and daughters of God. We have the right to come to Him as a Father, but we must not forget that we have brothers and sisters in our heavenly family. Pray.
Then we have to learn reverence and respect: “Hallowed be Your name.“ Few sections of the church today have genuine reverence for God. We may demand an outward conformity of behavior, but that is very different from honoring, respecting and fearing Almighty God. “Hallowed be Your name.” Pray.
The next phrase is “Your kingdom come.“ God has a Kingdom and His ultimate purpose in this dispensation is to bring His Kingdom into being on earth. When I say, “Your kingdom come,” I am lining myself up with God’s purposes. It is not just a nice religious phrase. I am saying, “God, may Your Kingdom come – and here I am, ready to play my part in the coming of Your Kingdom.” That is why I am saying it. I am identifying myself with the purpose of God. Pray.
Then I say, “Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” How is God’s will done in heaven? As I understand it, it is done perfectly. There are no hitches, no frustrations and no delays. God’s will goes through perfectly in heaven. Jesus taught us to pray that it should go the same way on earth. If Jesus taught us to pray that, then I believe it is a possibility. I do not believe that Jesus would teach us to pray for something absolutely impossible. But when I pray “Your will be done on earth,” you know where it has to begin? With me! I have to submit myself without reservation to the will of God. Pray.
I think of the conversion of Charles Finney. He was one of the greatest preachers that the Church has ever known and a man with an outstanding ministry of bringing sinners to conviction and conversion. One of the remarkable facts about Finney’s ministry as an evangelist is that over two-thirds of his converts maintained their stand as Christians. In contrast, it is estimated that only approximately one-third of D. L. Moody’s converts remained Christians. There was something in the ministry of Finney that produced gripping conviction, and I believe it goes back to Finney’s own conversion.
Finney was a respectable lawyer when somebody confronted him with the Gospel and his need for salvation. He turned it over in his mind and thought, Well, if there is such a thing as salvation, I probably need to be saved. It would be a good thing to be saved. Because he was a respectable lawyer, however, he did not think that it would be dignified to be saved in public, so he decided to go out into the woods. Off he went to the woods to pray. Then he asked himself, Well, what am I going to pray? The Lord’s Prayer, that is a good prayer. There is nothing wrong with praying that. So he started out, “Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come….”As he got ready to say the next phrase, “Thy will be done on earth,” it dawned on him that this involved him. He could not say “Thy will be done on earth” unless he was prepared without reservation to submit to God’s will in his own life. Otherwise, he would be a hypocrite. At that point, the Holy Spirit moved in and through that phrase – Thy will be done – showed Finney what a rebel he really was: a polite, respectable, law-abiding, religious rebel. God dealt with him powerfully, breaking him down into a state of total submission. Pray.
Shortly afterward God baptized him in the Holy Spirit. There is no question about what happened to Finney. He said, “I received a mighty baptism of the Holy Spirit,” and then he continued, “I literally bellowed out the unutterable gushings of my soul.” He gave forth an utterance in what we would call today an unknown tongue. Here is the real secret: First of all, the deep conviction, and secondly, a mighty anointing of the Holy Spirit. Pray.
Returning to our text, “Your will be done,” we find that it means, “Lord, I am not going to be a rebel any longer.” Yet many people who regularly say the Lord’s Prayer have never realized to what they are committing themselves. I have found that people will never have a deep, settled, permanent inward peace until they make a total submission to Almighty God. This is the message of Isaiah 57:19-21: “‘I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near,’ says the LORD, ‘and I will heal him’” Pray.
God is offering peace and healing to all men. To him who is far off is usually a form of speech for the Gentiles. To him who is near refers to Israel. God is offering peace and healing to all people, but some can never receive peace because they will never lay down their arms of rebellion. Therefore, God goes on to say: “But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. ‘There is no peace,’ says my God, ‘for the wicked’” Pray.
As long as we retain that attitude of rebellion, we cannot rest. We are like the waves of the sea, continually rolling and breaking, casting up the mire and the dirt at its edge. Watch the sea! It cannot rest! Look again at these words: “The wicked [the rebellious] are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest…. ‘There is no peace… for the wicked.”’ The most convincing evidence that you are living a righteous life is that you have deep, settled, abiding inward peace. Few people today are truly at rest. Pray.
I was ministering in New Zealand with some Baptist friends who were talking about their college-age Sunday school class. They described how a young woman who was a trained nurse came into the class. She did not profess to be a Christian but wanted to study the Bible. One day this young woman challenged the teacher about the joy and peace that are the fruit of the Holy Spirit. She said, “I will believe that when I am not continually giving sedation and tranquilizers to the members of your church that I have to visit in their homes! If you have joy and peace, why all the sedation? Why all the tranquilizers? It doesn’t go together!” That is the truth! That is why I say that few people in our contemporary society have real, deep, settled inward peace. Why? Because we are a world of rebels! Many times we are religious rebels, but rebels just the same. Pray.
I believe that a confrontation is coming, a showdown between God and the people of the Western culture. I envisage this in my spirit, and I praise God for it. The real issue will be this: total submission! If Almighty God is willing to come into my life, there is only one logical place I can offer Him: total supremacy, complete Lordship. Anything short of that is a sham. Pray.
We find ourselves confronted with this fact of rebellion: rebellion inside us, rebellion in the world around us, rebellion against government, rebellion against God, rebellion in children against parents, rebellion in students against teachers and so on. Everywhere we see rebellion burgeoning and increasing. Tomorrow we will see when rebellion began and who the first rebel was!
We pray:
- Holy Spirit, teach us as we go through this study, and give us a supernatural understanding of the spiritual warfare in which we are engaged. Pray.
- Protect us, our families and all of the members of our 24/7 family from the traps and snares of darkness. Train and equip us for the battles we must fight, for Your GLORY! Pray.
- Cover President Trump with the Blood of Jesus as we intercede for him! Work in his heart and mind and help him make the crucial decisions that will facilitate his return to the White House. Pray.
- Lord God, protect our nation. Do not allow us to be drawn into a war, but let us seek Your peace and solutions to the conflict at hand! Pray.
- Let the light of Christ flood the nations, drawing all men to You! Pray.
- That our homes will get in order so that they might be places for Your HABITATION and sanctuaries for others! Pray.
- That we will joyfully release the LOVE of GOD from our hearts over this, our beloved nation. Pray.
