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.

Intercessors’ Prayer Guide
September 6 – September 27, 2010
Shalom Missouri Prayer Intercessors,
“My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. You are the most excellent of men and Your lips have been anointed with grace, since God has blessed You forever. Gird Your sword upon Your side, O Mighty One; clothe Yourself with splendor and majesty. In Your majesty ride forth victoriously in behalf of truth, humility and righteousness; let Your right hand display awesome deeds.” (Psalm 45:1-4)
Hallelujah! It is a NEW SEASON, there is a FRESH BREATH OF GOD blowing INTO and UPON us. He is STIRRING OUR HEARTS to worship Him with intense pure love. New songs are arising from our heart as we behold Him and our tongues release the sounds and expressions of what is in our heart. We begin to see The LORD as the MIGHTY WARRIOR OF LOVE that He is and we cry out for Him to MOVE OUT in His Majesty and display His awesome deeds to a sick and dying world. Our hearts have intense purpose to see His VICTORY manifested and truth, humility and righteousness to prevail among the nations.
The Feast of Trumpets, also known as Rosh Hashanah is upon us at sunset on September 8. This is the 1st of Tishri on the Hebrew calendar, which is the seventh month – the most holy month of the year.
LORD, open our ears to hear the sound of the heavenly SHOFAR of this season. Give us understanding of Your prophetic message to us right now – the one that is HOT OFF THE HEAVENLY PRESSES OF YOUR HEART. Let us turn to You wholeheartedly. Let us see and enter into JESUS in the SEVENTH MONTH.
All three of the seventh month feasts take place in the next three week period of this Prayer Guide:
September 8 at sunset – Feast of Trumpets/Rosh Hashanah begins at sunset
September 9 at sunset – 2nd day of Feast of Trumpets/Rosh Hashanah
September 17 at sunset – The Day of Atonement begins
September 22 at sunset – The beginning of the 7 day Feast of Tabernacles
Truly we are in a very significant spiritual three week period. IT IS THE SET TIME TO MEET WITH THE LORD – MAY WE NOT MISS OUR APPOINTMENTS. We are not saying that we must enter into any kind of religious observance of these Feasts, but we are saying that it is good to ask The Holy Spirit how to honor The LORD during these days – the scripture tells us plainly that these are the FEASTS OF THE LORD (Leviticus 23:2). HE has things to say to us in these days. HE has things to release to us and through us. It all leads to TABERNACLES, which is the desire of His heart – to Tabernacle with us as it was in the Garden and ultimately will be as prophesied in Revelation 21:3.
The LORD is saying that the time is now to shake ourselves free (Isaiah 52:2) from that which has kept us bound to the earthly ways in dealing with spiritual matters.
The sound of the heavenly SHOFAR is calling with authority and power:
“WAKE UP, O SLEEPER, RISE FROM THE DEAD AND CHRIST WILL SHINE ON YOU” (Ephesians 5:14)
“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on earthly things.” (Colossians 3:1-2)
“For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, Who IS YOUR LIFE, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.” (Colossians 1:3-4, EMPHASIS mine)
The LORD is saying remember your full amour. Meditate on the reality of My spiritual provision for your warfare. Contemplate each piece of living armour that I have given you. It is My armor and I HAVE GIVEN IT TO YOU. Strip yourself of every shred of self-protection and trust completely in what I have provided. If you will trust in My helmet of salvation, I tell you that your whole paradigm of thinking will shift. My helmet of salvation constantly releases the heavenly perspective into your thinking. No matter what situation you encounter; no matter how dire; no matter how overwhelming, you will automatically think in terms of your SALVATION in this situation. Your mind will be in Shalom and you will bring
down every high thing that exalts itself against Me on your own behalf and on behalf of those for whom you intercede. You will be constantly bathed in My thoughts. Remember your full armour, put it on, trust Me, trust Me, trust Me.
Hallelujah! Thank You¸LORD.
Our Gatekeeper Focus once again directs us to faith-filled intercession on behalf of the USA during this Seventh Month. Yom Kippur is a spiritual time gate that releases intercessors into the High Priestly ministry of the Day of Atonement. Read Leviticus 16 for a detailed account of what the high priest did on that day. He was the only one who could accomplish the work of atonement for the priesthood, all the families of Israel and literally for the entire nation. The life of the entire nation hung in the balance on that day. If the work of the high priest was not accepted, the entire nation would experience judgment. The LORD required all of the people to fast on that day. There are many reasons why the LORD calls for fasting in the scriptures, but I believe that one of the main reasons He called for it on
this day was as a picture of a people who understood they desperately needed atonement for their individual and national sins that were committed throughout the year. The fasting served as a picture that the atoning work would not be accomplished by human strength. There was nothing they could do but trust in the work of the high priest. They were weak and aware that they could do nothing for themselves. Once again in our day our own nation needs a work of national atonement. Yom Kippur has deep dimensions that have already been fulfilled by Jesus – read the book of Hebrews which chronicles the work of Jesus as High Priest and compares the work of Yom Kippur as performed by the earthly priests and the work as performed by our High Priest, Jesus, Who entered the heavenly sanctuary. However, there is also a powerful literal future fulfillment to come when the entire nation of Israel will recognize Jesus as Messiah Who is their Atonement and Who is their High Priest. Let us pray into the day when “all Israel is saved” (Romans 11:26) and let us also pray for the USA to have a day of recognition of Who Jesus is and of our need for His atonement. Let us beseech The LORD as did Moses on the mountain after the golden calf transgression (see MO Prayer Intercessors’ Guide August 16 – Sept. 6.
The Gatekeeper section for Israel contains the same scriptures and prayers as the previous Guide. Continue to siege the Throne and the spiritual entities with these weapons.
The Portals of Glory section contains a major focus on a gathering in November that will address Freemasonry on a corporate level in our state. Please take this matter before The Throne.
Thank you, mighty and faithful ones. May you be filled with FRESH BREATH and may you know THE SURPASSING GREATNESS OF HIS POWER TOWARD WE WHO BELIEVE.
In Jesus,

“So Moses went back to The LORD and said, “O what a great sin these people have committed! They have made for themselves gods of gold. But now, please forgive their sin – but, if not, please blot me out of the book You have written.” (Exodus 32:31-32)
“Listen, O high priest, Joshua and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come. I am going to bring My servant, The Branch. See, the stone I have set in front of Joshua! There are seven eyes on that one stone, and I will engrave an inscription on it,” says The LORD Almighty, “And I will remove the sin of this land in a single day.” (Zechariah 3:8-9)
“This is to be a lasting ordinance for you. On the tenth day of the seventh month you must deny yourselves and not do any work – whether native-born or an alien living among you – because on this day atonement will be made for you, to cleanse you. Then, before the LORD you will be clean from all your sins.” (Leviticus 16:29-30)
“And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on Me, the One they have pierced, and they will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son.” (Zechariah 12:10)
“On that day a fountain will be opened to the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and impurity.” (Zechariah 13:1)
“On that day I will banish the names of the idols from the land, and they will be remembered no more,” (Zechariah 13:2a)
*Pray and declare the scriptures above for the USA. We are in desperate need of The LORD’s MERCY.
2. Gatekeeper State Israel Focus
Father, move upon the people of Israel during the days of the Feasts. Open their eyes to the Person that these Feasts celebrate and to the prophetic time that we live in as revealed by these Feasts. Draw them, Father, draw them. Open their eyes. Give them a heart of flesh to replace a heart of stone. Amen.
Let us pray from the Word of God:
“We lift up our eyes to You, to You whose throne is in heaven. As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God till He shows us His mercy.” (Psalm 123:1-2)
Father, strengthen those of Israel who are Your Bride. Let them lead the way in looking to You. Father, by Your mercy grant to unbelieving Israel – whether it be the religious, secular, New Age and every other expression of unbelief – grant to them eyes to see the Truth of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and His Son, Yeshua, their Messiah. We cry out for all of Israel to be saved.
“Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt. We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant.” (Psalm 123:3-4)
Father, we continue to ask that You use the present circumstances to bring Your people to godly humility and brokenness before You. Do not allow the enemy to take advantage of their weariness in being contemptible in the eyes of the nations. Especially grant to those in positions of authority to trust in You and not in man’s futile solutions.
“If the LORD had not been on our side – let Israel say – If the LORD had not been on our side when men attacked us, when their anger flared against us, they would have swallowed us alive; the flood would have engulfed us, the torrent would have swept over us, the raging waters would have swept us away.” (Psalm 124:1-5)
Father, enable many in Israel to see that the situation is desperate and that without You they would indeed perish. But put a fresh, holy faith in many and cause them to begin now to declare that The LORD is with us.
“Praise be to the LORD, who has not let us be torn by their teeth. We have escaped like a bird out of the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.” (Psalm 124:6-8)
Hallelujah! Father, we especially pray over the young men and women who comprise Israel’s army. And we most especially pray over the approximately 150 members of Israel’s army who are believers in Yeshua. Let them be pillars of faith in the midst of their fellow soldiers and in the midst of the enemy. May they lead the nation in giving You praise for Your faithfulness.
“Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people both now and forevermore.” (Psalm 125:1-2)
Father, we declare Your faithful love for Your city of Jerusalem and Your people Israel. You are the ultimate defense shield that surrounds them. May they know You and quickly.
“The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, for then the righteous might use their hands to do evil.” (Psalm 125:3)
Father, we declare that Jesus is the Prince of Peace and the King of Kings over Israel. The government is on His shoulders and of the increase of His government and of peace there is no end. Father, we pray that You set the people of Israel free from the tyranny of Hamas in Gaza and Judea and Samaria (aka: The West Bank), and free from the tyranny of Hezbullah in Lebanon. We ask You to set the people of Iran, the Middle East and the entire world free from the tyranny of the Iranian regime. Thank You, Father.
“Peace be upon Israel” (Psalm 125:5b)
The TRUE PEACE that is in and through MESSIAH YESHUA!
3. Portals of Glory Focus
“I tell you the truth, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.” (John 1:51)
“As He was praying the appearance of His face changed and His clothes became as bright as a flash of lightning.” (Luke 9:29)
“The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and Only Who came from the Father full of grace and truth.” (John 1:14)
“Father, I want those You have given to Me to be with Me where I am and to see My glory, the glory You have given Me because You loved Me before the creation of the world.” (John 17:24)
“Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them.” (Revelation 21:3a)
The Feast of Tabernacles, which begins on the evening of September 22 this year, is the final and GREATEST of the Feasts. In our day this Feast is a “dress rehearsal” for the ultimate time of Tabernacles as stated in Revelation 21. A partial and preparatory fulfillment of this Feast began when Jesus came in the flesh. He now dwells in us, the ones who believe in Him, and His Glory advances through us to begin to fill the earth. Hallelujah! There is no end to the increase of His government and peace (Isaiah 9:7). During this season of the LORD’s Feast of Tabernacles let us pray and declare the scriptures quoted above for our state and nation and into the gatherings listed below.

*Tearing Down the Strongman of Freemasonry 50 State Tour

Friday: 7:00-9:30 p.m.
Latter House Ministries
Columbia, MO
Saturday: 9:00 a.m. – noon
Lunch Break
Afternoon session 1:00-3:00 p.m.
Dr. Bill Sudduth of Righteous Acts Ministries will address the stronghold of Freemasonry. He will begin with an in-depth teaching on Freemasonry, followed by insight on Islam’s agenda and the Masonic connection followed by corporate prayer for release from freemasonry and Islam’s influence including the breaking of these curses.
“That same night the LORD said to him, “Take the second bull from your father’s herd, the one seven years old. Tear down your father’s altar to Baal and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.” (Judges 6:25)
Father, we learn from the scriptures that Your will for Gideon was to tear down the idolatrous altar of false worship that had been a stronghold in his family. Thank You for sending help to us so that we will also obey your command to pull down this stronghold that has been in our national family since our inception.
Father, we confess for the USA that just like David realized: “Surely this nation was sinful at birth, sinful from the time we were conceived.” (Psalm 51:5). We are thankful for the righteous aspects of our foundation, but we confess with no attempt at justification that at the same time there was iniquity even in the best of our founding fathers. This iniquity opened the door to the stronghold of Freemasonry to grow and prosper in this land.
Now we know that it is time to tear down this false altar so that millions of people who are trapped in its bondage and millions more who are not actively engaged in this idolatry but are affected by its poison, can be set FREE. Father, we thank You that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but are MIGHTY TO THE PULLING DOWN OF STRONGHOLDS and every wicked thing that exalts itself against the KNOWLEDGE OF THE LORD.
Thank You for bringing in a servant who has been trained to address this stronghold to us in order to make us one sharp threshing instrument in Your hand (Isaiah 41:15). AMEN.
We encourage everyone to pray the prayer of personal divorce decree from the principality of Baal. This spiritual declaration has been given to The Body of Christ in this hour as an effective tool to seal a legal transaction in the heavenly realm for us. The decree is directly below this paragraph. It is also included as a word document attachment for those who want to use it and preserve it in that form.
THE HIGHEST COURT
OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD
IN RE THE MARRIAGE OF:
_________________________________________,
Plaintiff,
vs.
THE PRINCIPALITY OF BAAL
Defendant,
DECREE OF DIVORCE
On _____________________, this matter comes on for hearing before the Supreme Judge of the Highest Court of the Kingdom of God on the petition of _________________________________ seeking a Decree of Divorce from the Principality of Baal, the Defendant in this matter.
The Court finds:
1. The Plaintiff’s assertions are fully substantiated:
a. That this marriage was entered into by the Plaintiff based on lies and deceit by the Defendant, and
b. That Plaintiff relied on fraudulent inducements and enticements by the Defendant, which Defendant had neither the intention nor ability to deliver.
2. The Plaintiff renounces any and all right, claim or interest in any possession jointly acquired with the Defendant during this Marriage, and that Plaintiff is entitled to have sole right, claim, and interest, in and to all the gifts, possessions and inheritance from Plaintiff’s Father, and Defendant is to be and forever barred from the title, control, or use of any such gifts, possessions or inheritance.
3. That all offspring of the Marriage have been still born or have had viability for only brief periods and were either destroyed by the Defendant or were so infected by sickness attributed to the Defendant’s condition that no life remained in them.
4. The Plaintiff repudiates any and all joint claims with the Defendant, and requests this Court to sever all relationships with the Defendant of any nature, however and whenever such occurred, and seeks enforcement by this Court of Plaintiff’s desire to be known by no other name than that given by Plaintiff’s Father.
5. The Plaintiff also seeks an everlasting restraining order against the Defendant so as to keep the Defendant away from all persons or property belonging to the Plaintiff.
THE JUDGMENT
WHEREFORE, this Court being fully advised in the evidence does find for the Plaintiff and against the Defendant in all matters material to the Plaintiff’s Petition of Divorce, and does by this decree grant the Plaintiff a Divorce and all requests set forth above.
That being the Order of this Court, from and after this date, so shall it be.
THE SUPREME JUDGE
PLAINTIFF’S DECREE
Through the finding of the Court for the Plaintiff, the Plaintiff now makes the following Decree:
On _____________________, I, ___________________________________________, do hereby decree on behalf of my family and our future generations that:
1. We no longer have any ties with Baal-hamon. We are Tithers and Givers and therefore we are rightful heirs to the Great Transfer of Wealth to the Church.
2. We no longer have any ties with Baal-berith. We are now free to choose to remarry Jehovah, the only true God, and be in an everlasting covenant and relationship with Him.
3. We reclaim our sexual innocence and purity. We walk in holiness and we reject every form of sexual perversion, homosexuality, and sexual immorality.
4. We are for the next generation. We are for the Unborn’s Right to Life. We will pray and support the next generation to see God’s covenantal purposes fulfilled in them.
5. We no longer have any ties with any form of witchcraft and occult spirits.
