Welcome to our tri-weekly Intercessors' Prayer Guide for the State of Missouri. The strategy is to mobilize unified and focused prayer across the state that is aimed at just a few very specific targets.  The targets are corporate in nature.  They cover statewide, regional, city, national and inter-national issues that require the power of corporate agreement.  We will focus on these targets for three-week periods.  We believe there will be tremendous breakthrough as we siege these targets together for 21 day periods. 

 

Missouri Prayer Global Mission

Intercessors’ Prayer Guide

July 5 – July 26 2010

 

Shalom Missouri Prayer Intercessors,

 

“To those who have been called, who are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus Christ:  Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.”  (Jude 1-2)

 

“Grace and peace to you from Him Who is, and Who was, and Who is to come, and from the seven spirits before His throne, and from Jesus Christ, Who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.”  (Revelation 1:5)

 

Let us receive right now fresh impartations from Him of His mercy, love, peace and grace in abundance. 

 

And let us respond by giving thanks, praise, glory and honor to:

 

“To Him Who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve His God and Father – to Him be glory and power forever and ever!  Amen.

 

Father, we rejoice in Your love for us that has not only freed us from our sins but has also provided for us to fulfill our destiny as kings and priests.  It is our delight to serve You now and forever.  Father, we know that You freely give us all that we need and now we ask for the Grace that we need to minister in intercession during these awesome times.  Thank you, Father.  Amen.

 

“Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion.  For The LORD is a God of justice.  Blessed are all who wait for Him!”  (Isaiah 30:18)

 

“Let us then approach the throne of Grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.”  (Hebrews 4:16)

 

Our Intercessors’ Guide for the next three weeks is not in the usual sectional format.  We will devote this Intercessors’ Guide specifically to the national issue of the Gulf Oil situation and the inter-national issue of Israel.  Both of these situations are critical and require intentional, immediate, and sustained intervention of the intercessors in the Heavenly Court.

 

“Run, tell that young man, “Jerusalem will be a city without walls because of the great number of men and livestock in it.  And I Myself will be a wall of fire around it,” declares The LORD, “and I will be its glory within.”  (Zechariah 2:4-5)

 

HOLY FIRE!  The Fire of God is real and it is available and it is spreading now.  Please see the Home Page of Missouri Prayer’s website, www.missouriprayer.com to read a vision that The LORD gave to Regina.

 

During the week of June 25 – July 2, Missouri had the honor of carrying the Root 52 Torch of Prayer of repentance for the USA.  The Holy Spirit has strengthened the Body of Christ in our state – there is a renewed Fire of God that was passed into Missouri and is now burning in our hearts and in our youth.  Let us release and invest the Fire in our ongoing intercession.  We thank The LORD for inspiring the Reformation Prayer Network to mobilize inte rcession in all 50 states and to unify the states through the passing of the Torch one to another.  Missouri received the Torch from Maine and passed it on to Arkansas. Hallelujah! We also thank the LORD for Pastors Enos and Diane Chamberlain, who are the Executive Prayer Coordinators for Root 52 in Missouri. 

“Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:  “I am the LORD, the God of all mankind.  Is anything too difficult for me?”  (Jeremiah 32:27)

 

Many of us might remember the song inspired by this verse of scripture…..”Nothing, nothing absolutely nothing, nothing is too difficult for thee.”

 

The LORD is speaking this word to us today.  We encourage all of you to read the entire Chapter 32 of Jeremiah to understand the full context of the word.  Jerusalem was under siege by the Babylonian army, Jeremiah himself was in prison and the captivity of the entire nation was imminent.  Yet at this very time an opportunity arises for Jeremiah to purchase land in Israel and the LORD instructs him to buy the field.  Jeremiah’s response is full of love and respect for the LORD, yet ends with a plea of confirmation – LORD, are you really telling me to buy this field NOW – look what is happening!  The LORD not only confirms that he is to purchase the field but goes on with the encouraging promises of the future restoration of the people to the land.

 

So even now, as we are facing very serious and sobering times for the USA and Israel, the LORD wants to speak to us concerning His plans of restoration.  He wants us to continue to steward what He has given to us and WITH HIM to sow into our bright future and the bright future of our children.  So, in addition to interceding for the current crisis situations, let us receive Grace to continue to watch over our hearts, our families, our churches, our ministries, our cities, our regions, and our state.  Please refer to the June 24 – July 5 MO Prayer Intercessors’ Guide and continue to target the children and our waters. 

 

Thank you, mighty ones!

 

In Jesus,

Gatekeeper State Focus on Israel and the Gulf Oil Spill

 

“The earth is the LORD’s and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for He founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.”  (Psalm 24:1-2)

 

Hallelujah!  We begin with the declaration of the TRUTH that the earth is the LORD’s and all who live in it.  We give Him Glory as the One Who, in His wisdom, established the world upon the seas.  We are confident and steadfast in our faithful God and Father and in His Son, Jesus, Who holds all things together by His powerful word!  The LORD reigns over Israel and the LORD reigns over the Gulf Oil Spill.

 

“Such is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face, O GOD of Jacob.”  (Psalm 24:6)

 

Our God is the God of Jacob.  Jacob is Israel.  Our God is the God of Israel.  The LORD is showing His Bride more clearly the connection between The Body of Christ and Israel.  Romans 11  teaches us that our relationship is so intimate that is like the grafting of branches into a tree.  The LORD is writing upon our hearts that whatever is happening to Israel is happening to us.  It is more than a prophetic picture of what is happening to us – it is actually happening to us because we are grafted in. 

 

“I love the LORD for He heard my voice; He heard my cry for mercy.  Because He turned His ear to me, I will call on Him as long as I live.”  (Psalm 116:1-2)

 

Israel and the USA are both in “dire straits”.  Israel is facing an escalation of international warfare on many fronts – threats (that have teeth) of annihilation from Iran and it’s proxies Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, international media propaganda based on lies, pressure from the USA to make more and more concessions toward a false peace, the continuing saga of Gilad Shalit, an IDF soldier captured almost four years ago, rocket attacks from Gaza, and more. 

 

*There are signs of the outbreak of conventional war in the Middle East this summer.

 

The USA is facing deadly assaults in many forms.  There is educational and media warfare for the hearts and minds of our children and youth, the so-called Healthcare bill, problems in Afghanistan, economic woes, the encroachment of Islam in many aspects of American life, including government, and more.

 

*The Gulf Oil Spill is already a disaster of major proportions and is more threatening day by day.

 

“For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that He may have mercy on them all.”  (Romans 11:32)

 

The woes of both Israel and the USA have a common source.  The source is disobedience, which is another word for sin.

The remedy for both Israel and the USA is the same.  It is the mercy of God.

 

“The Israelites groaned in their slavery and cried out, and their cry for help because of their slavery went up to God.  God heard their groaning and He remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.  So God looked on the Israelites and was concerned about them.”  (Exodus 2:23b-25)

 

“Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion.  For The LORD is a God of justice.  Blessed are all who wait for Him!”  (Isaiah 30:18)

 

*Israel cannot survive without supernatural deliverance from God.

* The USA cannot fix the gaping wound that is deep under the surface of the Gulf of Mexico, and threatens the lives of many.

 

 

BOTH OF THESE SITUATIONS REQUIRE A SOVEREIGN MOVE OF GOD.

 

BOTH OF THESE SITUATIONS REQUIRE INTERCESSORS WHO STAND IN THE GAP, LAY HOLD OF GOD AND DO NOT LET GO UNTIL THE MIRACLE DELIVERANCE APPEARS.

 

PRAY FOR ISRAEL

 

“For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish.  And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this.”  (Esther 4:14)

 

There are many scriptures that declare the restoration of the people of Israel to the land.  It is certain that God will preserve and prosper Israel.  But the LORD always fulfills His promises through someone(s) who agrees with His plans and calls them into the earth realm through intercession.  If the Body of Christ does not rise up in this hour, deliverance will come from another place, but where will that leave us?  We cannot be passive about this.   The LORD spoke that when the fiery Torch came into Missouri that it would burn away apathy, lethargy and complacency.  Ha llelujah!  We are free to arise and take our place of intercession on behalf of Israel.

 

*Psalm 149:9  Let us wage war on behalf of Israel by declaring the judgments written

Please refer to the past two Intercessors’ Guides for more scriptures to continue to pray/declare over Israel.

 

*“I will rejoice in doing them good and will assuredly plant them in this land with all my heart and soul.”  (Jeremiah 32:41)

Declare this verse, which is part of the great restoration promises that the LORD gives to Jeremiah after instructing him to purchase the field.  It is so expressive of the heart of our Father regarding His work of bringing the people of Israel back to their land.

 

Pray and declare:

*Psalm 83:1-4

*Psalm 68

*Psalm 124

*Psalm 125

*Zechariah 12-13:2

*Ezekiel 36

 

PRAY FOR USA

 

*Isaiah 1-3.  The current condition of our nation is described rather well in these chapters and we can use them as our foundation for prayer in these days

 

*Isaiah 2:1-5.  Please note the great promises to those who believe that are contained in this passage.  Herein is our hope; herein our faith rests; herein our JOY is maintained in the midst of perilous times. 

 

*Isaiah 3:10 is our strength.  "Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds."  This is a sure word from The LORD to His Beloved believers.  We will surely endure various and many trials, but in them all WE OVERCOME and serve as SALT AND LIGHT in the earth.  Many will see and fear and put their trust in The LORD because of the witness of the righteous. 

 

*Isaiah 4 is our promised end - the canopy of His Presence over all.  Hallelujah!

 

1)  Father, use this crisis to break down the pride of the Church, our government leaders, business leaders - especially BP Petroleum, spreading to every man, woman and child in the USA.  Father, help us realize quickly that there is no human solution to this problem - we simply must have YOUR DIVINE INTERVENTION.

 

2)  Father, we confess our national sins before Your Throne of Grace.  As a nation, through our national policies, we have continued adding to our cup of iniquity and it is almost full.  Even at this moment, Father, innocent blood is shed through legalized abortion.  Even at this moment, Father, our government is turning its back on you and is promoting the Gay Agenda.  Even at this moment, Father, our national policy regarding Israel is touching the apple of Your eye and putting us at great peril.  Father, for the sake of Your own Name, for the sake of the righteous (those who trust in YOU for our righteousness; those who agree with YOUR WORD), for the sake of millions of innocent children who have not sinned in these areas, for the sake of the First Nations peoples who are turning to You, SHOW FORTH YOUR MERCY, FATHER.  Do not give us what we deserve.  Father, let Your discipline and even Your judgments bring forth Your FULL REDEMPTIVE purposes upon the USA.  Father, DELIVER US FROM THE EVIL OF THIS GULF OIL CRISIS.

 

3)  Father, GRANT US A MAJOR GIFT OF REPENTANCE.  We cannot work up true repentance - Your word says that it is a gift from You.  We are in desperate need of this gift.

 

4)  Father, GRANT US A SPIRIT OF GRACE AND SUPPLICATION so that we might humble ourselves and pray, and turn from our wicked ways so that You will come and HEAL OUR LAND (and seas).

 

5) Father, GRANT US A SPIRIT OF CONVICTION.  Father, the conscience of the nation is close to being seared through the hardness of the years of bloodshed and our rebellious ways.  Our love has grown cold.  Father, You have said that EVEN NOW, EVEN NOW, if we will turn to You - You will respond.  Father, HELP THIS NATION TO BE CONVICTED OF SIN again so that WE MAY TRULY KNOW YOUR MERCY.

*Hallelujah!  Give thanks for the Missouri Health Care Freedom Amendment (see below) and pray that it will pass overwhelmingly on August 3!

The Missouri Health Care Freedom Amendment, Proposition C will appear on the August 3, 2010 statewide ballot in Missouri as a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment. The proposed measure aims to block the federal government from requiring people to buy health insurance and bans punishment for those without health insurance. On May 4, 2010 the Missouri Senate voted 26-8 in favor of referring the proposed measure to the ballot. On May 11 the House gave final approval to refer the measure to the ballot following a 108-47 vote.

HALLELUJAH!

THANK YOU FOR PRAYING!

It is a time to be sober; it is also a time to look up and see that OUR REDEMPTION DRAWS NIGH!  Hallelujah!

 

Be strong in the LORD, little flock, for it is The Father's good pleasure to give us His Kingdom!

 

“Therefore He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them.”  (Hebrews 7:25)
