Sep 20, 2019 – Notes Shabbat Call
09-20-19 Notes from the 24/7 National Strategic Prayer Call
“International SHABBAT Celebration”
7-10 PM Eastern 712-770-4340 code: 543555 #
SHABBAT SHALOM! Good evening, or afternoon as the case may be, and welcome to our SHABBAT Call on this holy night, as we come together in the Presence of the Lord, to intercede for our President and nation! We welcome the Holy Spirit and ask that He guide and direct our call this night!
We opened our hearts and released worship from our lips, expressing our love for God and enjoying the experience of being in His Presence together! We declare that we will not entertain fear…and sang:
“Fear not, for I AM with you. Fear not, for I AM with you. Fear not, for I AM with you,” says the Lord!
“I have redeemed you, I’ve called you by name. Child, you are Mine.
When you walk through the waters, I will be there and through the flame.
You’ll not (NO WAY) be drowned. You’ll not (NO WAY) be burned. For I AM with you!”
(Just after the SHABBAT Call began, Maureen received word that her little granddaughter, Katie Sykes (2) had been taken to the hospital in Mississippi, and underwent surgery. She left the line for a moment to check on her, and came back with a good report! Katie Sykes is out of surgery and recuperating from what was a severe case of cellulitis, caused by a bite on her buttocks that had become infected and had to be cut open and drained! Praise God for her safety and for her parents who were alerted to their daughter’s problem and resolved it through quick action! Amen!) NOTE: it was interesting that the call came in right after we sand the song: “FEAR NOT, for I AM with you!”
Pastor Ioan asked that we read Romans 1: 1-12, the greeting of Paul as he wrote the Book of Romans!
“Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God which He promised before through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures, concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. Through Him we have received grace and apostleship for obedience to the faith among all nations for His name, among whom you also are the called of Jesus Christ; To all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers, making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you. For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established – that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.”
We contemplated what it would be like if the Apostle Paul was joining us on the call tonight! How many would join the call if they knew he was on the line? What would he say to us?
He might address us thus: “Beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
We respond: Lord, we welcome Your peace and the blessing of the apostle Paul, and receive the grace, peace and the love of God now!
He would tell those of us in the 24/7 family:“…your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.”
And we would reply: May the Lord increase our faith so we might be His witnesses wherever we go!
He would pray for us and would want to be with us: “I make mention of you always in my prayers…making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you. For I long to see you…”
We would respond: We receive his prayer and we agree that we of the 24/7 family would be able to come together as one…hopefully before the 2020 elections!
We prayed corporately and then individually:
- Josephine (MI) prayed Psalm 133 for us, proclaiming the unity of the Spirit and the bond of peace!
- Sandra (LA) rejoiced in God bringing us together and allowing us to serve Him on the 24/7 call
- Philip (CA) thanked God that we are here for His purposes and He will show us His plans – step by step
- John (NJ) thanked God for the work the Holy Spirit is doing today and how he empowers us to serve Him
- Cheryl (MT) thanked God for all He is doing in and through us
- Kimberly (CA) God is teaching us what it means to take and walk in authority
This is a critical time in our nation and in the nations around the world! Our President is under constant threat and pressure as the enemy is continually trying him down! Considering all the attacks against him and the foundational structures and systems of our government, we must be alert and like the Jews in Susa, be willing to fight for our lives, our homes, our families and the future of this nation! Together, we will stop the enemy in its tracks and turn it back…at the gates, in our streets, and in every place it dares to trespass.
We launched into pray for our President, whom we discovered has just received a 52% approval rating.
We offered individual prayers and prayed for his mind:
- Carol (NY) blessed his mind and prayed that he might continue to be of sound and healthy mind
- Albert (CA) we see that the President’s approval rating shows that his light is shining and that You are “making his enemies to be at peace with him”!
- Donna (NY) we claim that he will make decisions from Your Word and walk in it
- Jane (MD) thanked God that he received a blessing from a lady in NY today and that he wears the full armor of God and has a daily verse that inspires him
- Marilyn (KY) 2 Timothy 1:7 “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” Give him that discipline, self-control and balance that will serve him well in his office of President of the United States of America! Bless him and Melania as believers together!
- Cathy (CA) Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.’
- Lorraine (NY) 3 John 2 “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.” We bless him, to prosper in Jesus Christ, and that there would be order in his spirit, soul and body
- Tessie (FL) 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not [a]carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.” Thank You that anything that is not of You will be taken captive!
- Donna (NY) no fear…rather, power, love and a sound mind for our President! Thank You for his confidence, boldness and courage!
- John (NJ) thank You for giving him the tools that are essential for good leadership…and for the way he has prepared for when he leaves office in 2024 and the next administration that follows him; we thank You for especially for his appointments to the judiciary which will impact it for years!
We then prayed for the President, regarding the two major international issues he is being faced with today: That he would not be provoked into a war with Iran…and that He has wisdom in all his dealings with Israel, and that in any Israeli Peace Plan, there will be NO DIVISION of the LAND of ISRAEL!
- Dave (MD) DJT is a master negotiator and deal maker but there must be an understanding that there is no negotiating regarding giving away the land
- Phillip (CA) Isaiah 66:5-10 “Or shall a nation be born in a day?
- Diane (MT/AK) asked that Jared Kushner would be released from his allegiance to his earthly father’s beliefs and bound to God Himself
- John (NJ) that there would be no peace treaty with those like the Taliban who don’t believe Israel has a right to exist. It’s not a political solution that will resolve this, because it’s a spiritual problem!
- Bobbi (WI) the President reveres and honors Your Word, and we ask that those around him who love You will spend as much time as they are able to share Your Word with him
- David (MD) prayed “remove the temptation to be ‘THE ONE’ who solves the peace problem”. Also, let the President be restrained in his actions re: Iran.
Pastor Ioan said that the Iranians believe that when a global war starts their leader “Mahdi” will come and that Jesus, their prophet, will come and fight the war and win it for “Mahdi”!
Tomorrow’s focus shares the scripture from 2 Chronicles 20 which tells God’s battle plan…
“‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. Tomorrow go down against them. ..you will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.” And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground, and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem bowed before the Lord, worshiping the Lord. Then the Levites of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites stood up to praise the Lord God of Israel with voices loud and high.” 2 Chronicles 20:15-19
We prayed that the United States will not be trapped into participating in a war with Iran, but instead, through prayer, repentance and praise, we will stand and see the deliverance of God!
- We offered a corporate prayer to that effect!
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is sovereign and rules over the United States, that He has claimed this land and our people for Himself, for the end times and for His purposes!
- We were made aware that three evil principalities: the spirit of death, the spirit of war and the spirit of false religion, each of whom is ruling in a specific region of the world, will be unable to work together…hence, unable to war together against us as they have planned…and that when they come together, they will fight against one another and destroy each other, and then their human followers will do the same!
We prayed corporately and then offered individual prayers:
- Peter (FL) the key verse is what the king instructed his people…”he appointed those who should sing to the Lord, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying: ‘Praise the Lord, For His mercy endures forever.’”
- Paul (NY) sang that verse “Praise the Lord, For His mercy endures forever.”
- Jane (MD) Isaiah 30:15 For thus says the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel: “In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.”
- Ina (MO) Just as at Babel, God will confuse the language and they will not be able to work together
- Joyce (WI) It’s Your fire in our hearts and Your Blood in our veins and the power is streaming down in and through the kingdom as we advance.
Maureen asked if we truly believe that we can just STAND and having done all else, STAND and worship God over the battle and watch Him move…
- Jane (MD) He inhabits the praises of His people…and nothing is too hard for Him!
- Roberta (TX) thank You for loving us enough to correct us. We rejoice that we have the family right to enter Your Presence and You show us what we must do. We are to be fervent in spirit and battle well as we humble ourselves at the foot of the cross! Romans 12:11 let us be fervent (be hot and boil). Help our unbelief, and give us peace to pray HOT and BOILING prayer!
- Aida (CA) HAVE MERCY ON US!
- Cathy (CA) Sand out: Send Judah first and the battle will be won!
- Annie (FL) Thank You that we will be boiling and not lukewarm, Lord!
We worshiped the Lord spontaneously, giving Him the honor, praise and worship that was due to HIM!
Pastor Ioan reminded us that when we pray, our prayers are seeing our prayers being answered!
- This week, as the FED once again lowered the discount rate (another .25%)…and for that we are grateful!
- Since we prayed, declaring that they do NOT represent the people of this nation, the influence of AOC and the Squad has gone down, and we haven’t heard much out of them recently!
- As intercessors on the 24/7 NSPC, we have chosen LIFE and BLESSING …not death and curses!
We made a decision to engage in a WARFARE OF LOVE, and in that, we bless and speak life over our enemies…committing them to the Lord for His disposition!
We declare that after this time of confrontation, the blessing will come! OUT OF THIS WARFARE OF LOVE that we have committed ourselves to, we will see the next GREAT AWAKENING come to our nation! Millions will turn to God and be saved!
- We prayed corporately into that GREAT AWAKENING!
- We asked that this prayer tonight would be followed by SIGNS, WONDERS and MIRACLES!
We then prayed Acts 4:23-30, asking for God’s intervention and power in our lives and ministries…for His GLORY!
“And being let go, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them, who by the mouth of Your servant David have said:
‘Why did the nations rage, And the people plot vain things? The kings of the earth took their stand, And the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against His Christ.’“For truly against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done. Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.”
We thank You, Lord, for this time of grace and for the courage to ask for this outpouring of Your Presence and strength and power in our lives! As You raise us up to speak to this nation, may signs and wonders and miracles follow us, for YOUR GLORY!
We closed our SHABBAT Call by taking communion together, led by Jane (MD) and Bobbie (NC) and we feasted on His Body and Blood as we took the bread and drank the cup! Then we blew the shofars and rejoiced in the Lord our God!
