24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call Thursday, January 31, 2019

“A CALL TO THE WALL…ONE NATION UNDER GOD”

1-712-770-4340   Code:  543555 #

We will not tolerate any demonic interference on this 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call. 

In taking measures to protect and defend our 24/7 family and this 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 Thursday 

WELCOME THE KING OF GLORY INTO THE UNITED STATES 

The WARFARE OF LOVE – Part 4

Draining the “Swamp” – “Money Talks”

The Philistine cursed David by his gods and said, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!”  Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin.  But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. …that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. Then all shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.” 

1 Samuel 17:43-47

President Trump, like David, is seen in this picture boldly facing down an enemy that seems “bigger than life”, but just as with the “WIZARD OF OZ”, when the curtain was drawn back,  and the source of the BIG, fearsome “voice” was revealed, it was nothing more than “the mouse that roared”…and a defeated foe. Just as David prophesied to Goliath that “the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands”, we declare today that the  Battle of the Bride in which our President and we are engaged, will be won by God…. and all the earth will know that there is a GOD and that He is protecting and upholding the United States of America! 

We pray:

  • Lord, You are sovereign and there is nothing or no one who can compare to You! Show forth Your power at this critical hour, moving on behalf of our beloved President, Your son, as he stands and boldly faces his GOLIATH! Let it be vanquished as Goliath of old was, and let Your people be VICTORIOUS! 

In his book, “Drain the Swamp: How Washington Corruption Is Worse than You Think,” Congressman Ken Buck (R-CO)  provided citizens with much valuable “inside information” on the workings of Congress. He says: 

“I didn’t go there [to Washington, DC] with a lot of friends…and I won’t leave with a lot of friends.” 

That statement is likely to be true inside the DC beltway. His book won’t earn him many friends in the House of Representatives…BUT…he’ll make many new friends among a citizenry which is grateful for the education they’ve received about how Congress really works…among them, our 24/7 NSPC family. 

Here’s a story that illustrates that point: a meeting was held where  200 or so Republicans Congressmen and women were sitting listening to (and being instructed by)  those at a leadership table. 

  • The members were expected to listen respectfully to the leadership team’s presentations and then line up behind microphones in the aisles to ask any questions they might have about what was said!
  • When bills that had been supported by leadership were questioned, the leaders “explained” that unless the members voted for those specific “bad” bills, the Senate would pass something even worse.
  • When questioned about excessive spending and debt, the leaders promised that they would address it…”after the next election”
  • They also admonished the members to raise more money to be sure they stayed in the majority. 

 
So, in addressing  the question of what it is that drives Congress today,  the answer, sadly, is: 

“Money, and the need to raise lots and lots of it.”

We pray:

  • Lord, we are heartsick as we see how the spirit of mammon has infiltrated and controlled our US government. It insidiously and subtly slips in, gets a foothold and then, through a gradual and cumulative effort, takes over! Forgive us for not being on guard against the wickedness and snares of the devil! Restrain and remove the spirit of mammon and all influences it has exercised. Deliver us!

For years, those working to influence the Congress have known that “money talks”…

  • Wealth gives power to those who possess it…and with it, you can buy cooperation and get special consideration and treatment. 
  • Wealth has great influence. The idea behind this idiom was stated by Euripides in  5 BC.  Then, 2,000 years later, Erasmus spoke of “the talking power of money” (Adagia, 1532). 

Unhappily, the parties seem to have one purpose – to secure the new congressmen and women’s support for their leaders’ reelection to Congressional leadership. It was made clear that if the “newbies” were willing to play the Washington game, the party – the privileges – and perks – could be theirs forever. During orientation, the newbies start to receive the “perks of office” (lavish and opulent parties, free iPhones, laptops, and other technology). The message sent is “You won. It’s all paid for now.”

To serve on a committee, members of Congress are required to pay for the privilege! They are to put “party over principle” and coerced to vote with leadership…to make sure there is a party-line vote… whether the member believes the bill to be good or not.  If a member decides not to play along…

  • They are banned from using the NRCC call suites that are conveniently located two blocks from the House office buildings
  • The leadership will put out the word to the K Street lobbying community that they are not to donate or raise funds for those members if they wish to stay in the leadership’s good graces. 
  • If they are particularly rebellious, they are stripped of committee assignments, and maybe even be challenged in a primary by a leadership-backed candidate. 

We pray:

  • Father, how are we supposed to speak to our children about “TRUTH, JUSTICE and the AMERICAN WAY”, when these ideals are no longer being upheld by those in government? Give us specific strategies and direction, as we bind and cast into the abyss those dark forces holding our Congress hostage, and engage in the Battle of the Bride on behalf of our President and our nation! The stakes are too high for us to remain silent. We must demand change, or America and all we hold dear will be lost. 

So, why would the Republican leadership spend its time and money fighting its own conservative members, when they should be fighting the liberal Democrats they say they oppose?  Because

“Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely!” 

We can no longer afford to ignore the wisdom of our Founders, who understood the abuse of power and strived to keep power as far from Washington as possible. 

  • A crippling national debt exists because Washington has too much power. 
  • Corruption in the federal government is a direct result of so many people getting comfortable in “swamp”…the stagnant political backwaters beside the Potomac. 
  • The concentration of power in DC attracts the worst and tempts the best, making it extremely difficult for men and women of character to arise and lead our nation to a healthier place. 
  • The best way to “drain the swamp” in Washington is to remove the incentive for abuse.
    • Swamps exist when water congregates in one place and becomes stagnant over time. 
    • Draining the swamp means removing those who abuse power. 
    • They can’t abuse power if they don’t have it. 

We pray:

  • Help us to identify those who are causing the problem, exercising the power, money and control concentrated in the swamp of DC, and help us to remove them!
  • Show us how to resolve these issues, by removing the incentives for abuse, draining that swamp and removing the power of the “creatures’ who live there. Help us, Lord, as we do just that!

A legislative agenda which can be “a means to that end”, includes the enactment of a balanced budget amendment and the institution of term limits for Members of Congress.  

  • Congress can no longer make commitments to the American people that it can’t keep. We must get spending under control and balance the budget in order to prepare for and even have a future!  
  • Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has introduced a term limits bill, saying: “For too long, members of Congress have abused their power and ignored the will of the American people. Term limits on members of Congress offer a solution to the brokenness we see in Washington, DC. It is long past time for Congress to hold itself accountable. I urge my colleagues to submit this constitutional amendment to the states for speedy ratification.”
    • For the amendment to be passed, it would need to be approved by ⅔ of both houses of Congress and then ratified by 38 states. 

Recognizing the virtual certainty of the failure by Congress to enact either of these measures, many conservatives strongly support a convention under the Constitution’s Article V powers, which allow the states to initiate action to amend the Constitution. One way or the other, we must  DRAIN  THE SWAMP! 

We pray:

  • Lord, thank You for the wonderful gifts You have given us:  Founding Fathers who founded this nation on Your principles and provided us with a Spirit-led blueprint for governing, a magnificent Constitution that has served us well for 242 years and now, a President with a heart for You, this nation and our people. 
  • We have gone far afield from our Founding Fathers, who depended on You for guidance and for their every need; have dishonored our Constitution, which is based on Your Word,  and gave us direction; and have resisted what our President has done to bring us into alignment with Your plans and purposes for us. Please forgive us!
  • May our people turn back to You so that we might dwell in safety, under Your guidance and protection,
  • May the enemies who have tried to rape and ravage our country be exposed and brought down! 
  • Touch Your nation! Save Your people!  AMEN!
