Strategic Focus for Thursday 

WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES

THIS MEANS WAR! Part 7

3 Days of Fasting and Praying for Our United States Congress – Day 3

 Unless the Lord builds the house,They labor in vain who build it;

Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.

Psalm 127:1

As we contemplate the scripture above, we acknowledge that what man builds without God’s blessing eventually fails, and that without Him, we have no power to guard or protect ourselves or our nation! As intercessors, we seek God’s heart for what He desires, for and from the United States, and then we pray into what we have heard! We do not let our guard down. We remain on the wall, WATCHING and PRAYING…continually seeking the deliverance and destiny of our nation and her people! 

We have set aside these first three days of January to fast and pray for our US Congress. We now go before the Lord together to intercede for the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives.

“Our Father in heaven, we come before You today and hallow your name. We long to see Your Kingdom come and Your will be done, on earth, here in the United States, as it is in heaven. We humbly confess and acknowledge that we have sinned against You, Lord, in thought, word and deed, and ask for Your forgiveness, for all of our individual sins and for the sins of our nation against You. Through Your great compassion, will You grant the grace necessary for our nation at this critical hour? Set our legislators free from the bonds of evil. Allow them to serve You and rule with justice and righteousness that will bring healing to our land. Let us fulfill our destiny in You, and let us bring GLORY to Your Name once again! Amen! “ 

Members-elect of the 116th Congress pose on the East Front Plaza of the Capitol.

We pray:

• That God will intervene in each of their lives, free them from the oppression holding them captive and bring them into alignment with Him. 
• For the day that we will once again see our Congress become a house of prayer, as it was during the time of our Founding Fathers!
• That all evil spirits being brought in through the individual legislators, and those who serve on their staffs, will be bound and rendered powerless to operate on Capitol Hill!
• That a spirit of grace will be loosed that will enable the individual legislators to identify the demonic forces who are trying to infiltrate and control our government and then refuse to cooperate with them. 
• As the House leadership passes from Republicans to Democrats today, we look for the grip of darkness on the lives of our Representatives to be bound and broken, so that they will no longer RESIST God or righteousness. We bless our Congressmen and women to be free to move courageously, by the power of the Spirit, and to move responsibly to enact laws that will bless and benefit our nation! 

“It shall come to pass in that day that his burden will be taken away from your shoulder, 

and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.”

Isaiah 10:27

The power of our federal government is divided into 3 separate and co-equal branches: the executive, the judicial and the legislative. They provide both checks and balances for one another, and each has special duties and responsibilities regarding our laws, the principles by which our nation is governed. 

The Executive Branch (the President and his Cabinet)

• Signs into law or vetoes bills passed by Congress
• Commands the armed forces
• Appoints judges, ambassadors, and other federal officials
• Makes treaties with other countries
• Receives diplomats from other countries
• Represents the US at special ceremonies 

The Judicial Branch (the Supreme Court and the lower courts) 

• Can decide if a law is constitutional
• Can decide if a Presidential action is constitutional
• Reviews court cases related to the Constitution and federal laws
• Reviews cases tried in lower courts

The Legislative Branch 

(Congress: Senate 100 members/House of Representatives 435 members)

• Makes Laws 
• Creates and passes bills (proposed laws)
• Approves appointments and treaties (agreements) made by the President
• Sets and collects taxes
• Coins money
• Makes rules for trade between states
• Declares war

Each has a crucial role to fulfill and is expected to operate in cooperation with the others. There are times when that is not the case, and we sadly find ourselves in one of those times now! That is why we have entered into this 3 day period of fasting and prayer on behalf of this 116th Congress, which comes into session at 12 Noon today. 

Fasting has been called “aggressive humility in action” and as we couple fasting with the power of prayer, we have confidence that we will see God move. In the time of Esther, when the entire Jewish nation was to be terminated, Queen Esther called all the Jews to fast with her for 3 days, after which she approached the king on her people’s behalf. God used her to expose the evil intended against her nation…and through obedience to the call, all the Jews were saved.

America, like Israel then, needs to be saved! God is calling His people to faith and sacrificial action! We have responded to His call as we have been fasting and praying these 3 days for our US Senators and Representatives. 

• We have come before the LORD with hearts of gratitude for all He has done for our nation. 
• We have devoted ourselves to “continuing steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship” Acts 2:42.
• We are staying in the Word and praying together on the 24/7 NSPC for the deliverance from the grip of the demonic forces that have accompanied many of the members into the halls of Congress! 

We declare that the evil spirits that want to control and lead this nation have no authority there, and we deny them access. We stand against any and all evil spirits that try to take over Capitol Hill and declare that this is ONE NATION UNDER GOD and that HE ALONE HAS ALL AUTHORITY THERE. 

We pray that as 2019 progresses, that our Senate and House will be covered on every front by the united prayer of thousands of intercessors and believers across the United States! This battle is real and is taking place in the natural, but first and foremost, it is a spiritual battle, being carried out by the forces of darkness who have ensnared those who have been deceived, bought off, and stirred to engage in destructive behavior in our legislature by those who hate our nation. No longer will this be tolerated!

As each these declarations is made, we invite everyone to respond: “AMEN!” (So be it!)

• We speak GOD’s PEACE to Washington, DC, and to the streets and communities of our Capitol. 
• We cry: “Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!” Take Your rightful place as KING OF GLORY in our nation’s Capitol! 
• We ask that You would intervene in miraculous ways, delivering and saving every Congressman and woman, setting them free from whatever bonds have held them in captivity and removing any spirit under which they are operating.
• We demolish every plan of the enemy to resist unity, or cause problems that further divide this nation.
• We tear down every altar that has been established to false gods and evil spirits, and we arrest in the spirit those in Congress who have aligned with them. 
• We declare that there is only ONE TRUE GOD, and that there is no King but Jesus! 

As each altar to darkness comes down through our prayers, we have been building altars to God in Washington, DC. We ordain and decree that from this day forward and forevermore, Capitol Hill is a place of worship and praise for the ONE TRUE GOD! May all who enter our nation’s Capitol experience God’s PRESENCE, freedom and love. 

We pray with hope and confidence, as we complete this fast today! Tuesday and Wednesday were days of preparation, and today, the third day, Thursday, is a Day of Visitation! Something will happen when the Congressional members meet …and we are waiting in joyful expectation to see it revealed! 

We pray: 

• That there will be a deep cleansing in our Nation’s Capitol, and that Your Spirit will permeate the atmosphere and reach into and purge every place where other gods / spirits have been worshipped.
• That each Legislator, both Senators and Representatives, have the fear of God come upon them, and that they receive the grace, wisdom and insight (along with the foresight) to discern what needs to be cleansed, adjusted, altered and removed in their own lives…and in the alliances they form on Capitol Hill….and the courage to address that directly!
• That You would guard their hearts and minds and not allow them to be susceptible to any mesmerizing spirit or other influences / temptations, such as the “spirit of self-exaltation” which attempts to operate on and through those who serve on the Congress.
• That each and every member of the Senate and the House of Representatives might receive a personal, intimate visitation from You, a divine encounter, and according to their cooperation with what You desire, be moved to follow righteousness and justice. If they say NO, let them be removed!
• That there will be those who will be set free, “see” the truth and work with our President to MAGA!
• That those members of Congress who walk uprightly before You, Lord, who are earnest and honest, and love this nation, might increase in influence and authority among their colleagues and lead in 2019.
• May the entire membership of our Congress “honor their pledges” to uphold the Constitution and do what is right in Your eyes, Lord, for this nation! Lord, bless the United States of America …and allow our prayers and worship to usher in Your Presence to the Congress and to every one of our 50 states from which they come! 
• That TOGETHER, we will reverence and bless You, Lord…waiting in joyful expectation for the unveiling of YOUR MANIFEST PRESENCE as You move among the members of Congress, re-creating them as YOUR SONS and DAUGHTERS at this hour …so that they might write this chapter in American history in a way that honors YOU! 

Please be sure to join us tonight, Thursday, January 3rd at 8 PM ET (5 PM PT) on the National Strategic Prayer Call as we gather to break fast and intercede for our nation! Call in to: 1-712-770-4340 Code: 543555 #
