24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call Tuesday, January 15, 2019
“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 #
We have received several warnings about pending threats against the 24/7 call. We will not tolerate any demonic interference! We are taking measures to protect as well as to defend our 24/7 family and the call. At the top of every hour, the facilitator will take the first 3 minutes to bind all forces of evil and cast them down into the abyss. They will then pray a shield of protection over the call 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 and to pray for that which pertains to our nation!
We pray for the protection of our President, Donald Trump and cover him with the Blood of Jesus.
Thank You for instructing and guiding him, giving him wisdom through Your Holy Spirit.
We bless his wife, our First Lady, Melania, their young son Barron and each of their family members.
We also cover our Vice President Mike Pence, his wife Karen and their family with that Precious Blood,
and include all those in the Trump Administration who are serving You and our nation! Thank You, Father!
Strategic Focus for Tuesday
WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES
BE READY! REVIVAL IS COMING!
The Breath of God – Part 2
“Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints
and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, in whom the whole building, being joined together,
grows into a holy temple in the Lord,
in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.”
Ephesians 2:19-22
When God breathes upon a thing, LIFE flows into it!
- He formed man from clay, and His breath brought “life”!
- On the day of Pentecost, the breath of God “quickened” men and filled them with His Spirit!
- As we speak His Word into our world, His breath flowing forth from us “creates” and His will is fulfilled!
Many of us in the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call family know what it is to have God breathe on us, bringing that glorious redemption, resurrection and restoration! What wonders God has done in bringing us – the redeemed – together… taking our once shattered lives, and breathing on them…building us into a HOUSE OF PRAYER for the NATION…His House, which He delights to inhabit!
Taking that idea to the larger arena, we wait in joyful expectation as we see Him moving across our land, drawing men to Himself, and making this nation His own once again…ONE NATION, UNDER GOD!
We pray:
- Breathe on us again, Lord! Let Your Spirit flood and overwhelm our lives so that we, as living stones, might find our places in Your House, and be fit together properly, each in place, on the wall of our nation! We reconsecrate ourselves to You for Your purposes!
Our beloved country, the United States of America, is in a deep state of disrepair! Many of our people are operating in full blown rebellion against God. Others of us, by His grace, have laid down our rebellious nature and submitted ourselves to Him and His righteous government. Those who have been delivered from the slavery of sin have become temples in which the Holy Spirit (the very breath of God) dwells…“instruments of righteousness” Romans 6:13.
Our commission, as His own, is to go into the world and make disciples of all nations…not to make church members! Discipleship requires a radical response in each area of the personality – body, soul, and spirit.
- The requirement for our bodies is stated in Romans 12:1: “That you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God…” We are to offer our bodies to God just as the Israelites, under the old covenant, offered the animals they sacrificed on their altars. There is, however, one important difference. The Israelites killed the animals they offered to God. The body which we offer to God is to be a living sacrifice. When we offer ourselves to God, from that moment onwards, our bodies no longer belong to us. They are God’s property…God’s temples. Far too many Christians today continue to treat their bodies as if they still own them and are free to do with them whatever they please, but as stewards, we will be called to give an account for the way in which we have cared for His temple.
- Concerning our souls, Jesus stated His requirement in Matthew 16:24–25: “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself [literally, his soul], and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life [soul] will lose it, but whoever loses his life [soul] for My sake will find it.”The cross which Jesus refers to in this verse is the place where we choose to die. God does not impose this upon us. We take it up only by our own free will. It is here that we must deny our soul. This means that we say “No” to the three demands of the soul: “I want;” “I think;” “I feel.” When we are no longer controlled by these three motives, when their place is taken in our lives by God’s Word and God’s will, as we obey the Word and the will of God, we find the new life which Jesus offers us. It is only through the death and denial of those three motives that our souls can find this new life.
- As we fulfill the Lord’s requirement for our bodies and our souls, our spirits are liberated and we are able to enter into fellowship with God. This is even more wonderful, closer and more intimate, than that which was lost through the fall. In 1 Corinthians 6:17, Paul tells us that “…he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him,” a direct contrast to the preceding warning in verses 15-16, about becoming one body with a prostitute. The implication is clear: with a redeemed spirit, we can now enjoy a union with God which is as close and intimate as a sexual union would be for the body. It is the spirit alone, however – not the soul or the body – that can experience this direct, intimate union with God.
It is primarily through the act of worship that our spirits enter into this union with God. In John 4:23-24, Jesus said: “The true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth… God is Spirit, and [all] those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” He made it clear that true worship must be an activity of our spirits. Sadly, in the contemporary church, there is little understanding of the nature of worship, which is not entertainment, nor is it the same as praise.
We must discern the difference between the spirit and the soul.
- We praise God with our souls, and through our praise we have access to God’s Presence.
- Once we are in His Presence, it is through worship in the spirit that we enjoy true spiritual union with Him.
To be able to worship God in this way is the goal of salvation – first on earth, and then in heaven. It is the highest and holiest activity of which a human being is capable. It is only possible, however, when the soul and the body come into submission to the spirit, and in harmony with it. Such worship is often too profound for words. It becomes an intense and silent union as we are “joined to the Lord and are one spirit with Him.”
We pray:
- That as we moved through this focus, a desire began welling up in our hearts for more of God…more of this kind of intimacy, a greater depth of union with Him.
- That we would allow ourselves to forget the cares of this world, and focus on Him, as we come into a place of deep worship in our spirits and experience this kind of union.
- To be united with You, Lord, in spirit and in truth. We place our faith in You, and deny the three impulses of the soul: “I want;” “I think;” “I feel.” We put them to death, and release our spirits to enjoy that close and intimate fellowship with You that we were made for!
Let us turn to Him as we lift this song together:
“We worship You, Almighty God, there is none like You.
We worship You, Oh, Prince of Peace, that is what we want to do
We give You praise, for You are my Righteousness
We worship You, Almighty God, there is none like You.”
As we praise, worship and adore our HOLY GOD, we expect to see what happened at Pentecost repeated thousands of times across our nation! We proclaim this prophetic statement:
BE READY! REVIVAL IS COMING!
When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
And suddenly there came a sound (an echo) from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind (breath),
and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.
Acts 2:1-2
The powers of darkness and those aligned with them in our society will not be able to survive
the revival of the Church! The revival that is coming will be the most powerful strike
against the powers of darkness in the political and social arenas!
