DAY 3

A WEEK OF NATIONAL
HUMILIATION, FASTING & PRAYER
Until Tuesday, November 4th
National Election Day

Let us be the House of Prayer for ALL NATIONS! (Mark 11:17)

We are called to do only what see the Father is doing. The Father Heart is for the people of ALL NATIONS! The decisions made on our election day will impact the nations. We must seek God's victory on 11/4 not only for America, but for the nations. The next president will greatly influence the nations. For example, ending abortion on America through appointing righteous judges will get the attention of nations like South Korea & Israel. They may be inspired to end the bloodshed of the innocent as well! In regions like the Middle East and Africa, Christians & seeking Muslims alike will be encouraged to pursue their journey with Jesus with confidence and courage. As we pray in the spirit of 1 Timothy 2:1-8, God will move the hearts of our leaders & the people and be victorious for the nations!

Please read the letter below from Doug, an intercessor with deep connections to many African pastors.

Please read the below letter from Doug (an intercessor from Arkansas) and also go to http://fireinmybones.com/ and read the article about a Kenyan Pastor's great concern for both America and his own nation as it relates to Election Day.

Dear Friends,

This is my "election comment". Chosing government leaders is a serious business. The foundational act of "rendering unto Caesar" is exercising the God-given freedom to participate in the choice of the next "Caesar". As Christians, we are to rise above voting for a candidate because 'we like him/her' or because I think I might personally gain from his/her victory. Our electoral choices have consequences that ripple across the world and down through time. I am continuing a 27-year ministry in Kenya. The freedom and peace of that country (which is now 70% Christianized) hangs in the balance of our Nov. 4 choice for President. I affirm the legitimacy of the following article. If anything, Grady has greatly UNDERSTATED the history & intentions of Odinga and the enabling involvement of Obama. In the end, those of us who walk by the Spirit make all our choices based on what is pleasing to God and on what advances HIS interests in the world. America is in the midst of a "heart-check". How we vote will display our "national heart". I expect God to respond to us accordingly out of His heart. Please vote with open eyes.

Blessings,
Doug

DAY 2

A WEEK OF NATIONAL HUMILIATION, FASTING & PRAYER
Until Tuesday, November 4th: National Election Day

Today, 10/29, 8pm Eastern, Senator Obama will address the nation using 30 minute “infomercial” in ALL 5 major stations.  Pray that God will deliver this nation with HIS TRUTH!

This Day 2 of “A Week of National Humiliation, Fasting & Prayer”.  Together let us touch God’s heart in humble love & full of faith!  For Day 1 & Introduction of this important week, please go to www.prayersurgenow.blogspot.com or E-mail prayersurgenow@gmail.com.

Today’s focus will be Truth Surge. 

Our nation is experiencing A FAMINE OF TRUTH!  We have plenty to eat and drink, but we lack the Voice of God.  It is clear to me, that in the Election of 2008, the “father of lies” is having his way in the media, schools, government, and IN THE CHURCH!.

Before we ask God for HIS TRUTH SURGE in our nation, let us come before Him in the spirit of 1 Timothy 2:1-8with pure hearts, without bitterness and doubt.  This will require us going before our Heavenly Father and asking Him to expose our sins and the sins of the church.

We have NO STANDING IN CHRIST if we come with selfish, unforgiving and prideful hearts.  In fact this will fuel the enemy of our souls to exalt his agenda and those who will be used as his pawns.

Let us allow the TRUTH of the Holy Spirit and the Word SURGE into our hearts! Let us immediate confess any sins, repent from them, and choose to walk with Jesus in the LIGHT as He is in the LIGHT, not because we want to see a certain result on 11/4, but because we are made in God’s image, designed to reflect HIS GLORY!

ABIDING PRAYER means we are in a HOLY RELATIONSHIP with Christ, and our spiritual hearts in beating in sync with His and we are pumping the same “LIFE GIVING BLOOD” that is in Jesus!  This will require purity & holiness on our part.

God wants to give us righteous leaders, life to ALL & LASTING REVIVAL.  Today, He is looking for partnership with His intercessors who surrender our own agenda and, as William Penn, humbly live:

CHRIST’S CROSS IS CHRIST’S WAY TO CHRIST’S CROWN

May Jesus be victorious in our lives TODAY!  May Jesus be victorious on 11/4!  May Jesus rule in our nation and succeed in His “Holy Experiment” both in and through US!

Please consider joining us for a 11/1 & 11/4 National Conference Call Prayer.  Details are below:

A WEEK OF NATIONAL HUMILIATION, FASTING & PRAYER (Until Election Day)

Dear Intercessors Across the Nation:


We launched "A Week of National of Humiliation, Fasting & Prayer" this morning in the spirit of repentance and hope for our nation.  We must recognize that even if God gave us everything we asked for and more on 11/4, unless the heart of the Church is pure from this world, humble towards God and one another, and willing to be the answers to our own prayers, we will continue to march towards deeper judgment.

Let us therefore confess that as a nation...

"We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us!"  (A portion of President Lincoln's Proclamation for April 30, 1863 National Day of Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer.  For the entire text, please go to: http://www.appleseeds.org/day_pray.htm)

Then, acknowledge and walk in the ways of Psalm 33...

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance."  (Verse 12)
"For our heart have trusted in His holy name.  Let your mercy, O LORD, be upon us, just as we hope in You."  (Verses 21 & 22)

In our right standing with God, we enter into an abiding relation with Him.  Then, whatever we ask He will do because we are choosing to honor the Son and obey His word.  (John 15).

Let us be inspired by men such as William Penn and Abraham Lincoln!  Let us inspire the world to know the One who is giving us hope and peace!

Please consider joining us for national conference call prayer on Saturday, November 1st, 7:30 - 10am Eastern & Election Day, November 4th, 8-10am Eastern.  If you joined us today, we will do our best to work out the technical difficulties.  We appreciate your patience!  Please see below for the details and read the introduction to A Week of National Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer.

Introduction to

A WEEK OF NATIONAL HUMILIATION, FASTING & PRAYER

Sunday, October 26, 2008

This letter may be a confirmation to some of you and others may have a greater background on the topic of this letter.  Nevertheless, the Heart of Our Father is to encourage ALL of us and to enter into His Throne Room of Grace today and everyday until the Return of His Son and Our King!  In this spirit, I humbly share with you what He has placed in my heart concerning PA & America at such a time as this.

My daughter and I are reading together William Penn: Liberty and Justice for ALL by Janet & Geoff Benge.  This is a book families can read together and learn God's foundation for America.  A couple of days ago we read the chapter on how William Penn received "Pennsylvania" from King Charles II and his arrival to the New World.  Both of us were great inspired and overjoyed at the reading of how the colony of "Penn Forest" was birthed in October 28, 1682 with the signing of the official documents in New Castle.

God used William Penn to bring about His Holy Experiment.  If God's people would love Him as well as the believer and the unbeliever, He would establish His LIBERTY & JUSTICE FOR ALL in PA and the surrounding regions and the nations would be blessed.  He would bless the people of Pennsylvania so that they may bless the nations!  In a way, William Penn is the "Abraham" to our nation.  As Abraham, Penn did not have a complete understanding of Kingdom Principles.  However, as Abraham, Penn was willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING to allow God to succeed in His Holy Experiment in PA & beyond!

PA & Philadelphia began with great success in 1682!  This continued into 1776!  And in 1863, the year of National Day of Humiliation, Fasting and Prayer & The Gettysburg Address.  The BIG question for the intercessors is:  WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO PENNSYLVANIA & THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IN 2008!?

Although I do not have the time at this moment to share with you the causes of us falling away as a nation,  I am being prompted to share how the LORD may deliver us from the mess created by His bride.

I am encouraged that what God brought through William Penn & the Quakers and many others & movements in the same spirit continues to this day. Many PA intercessors are examples of God's continual success and the Keepers of His Royal Covenant!  However, the enemy of the Lord Jesus & our souls has a mighty stronghold in God's Keystone State, especially in the "City of Brotherly Love".  How could this be!?  Why would God allow such a thing?  After all, what happens in PA will continue to impact the rest of America & the nations. 

I believe God has shown me that without God's victory in PA on 11/4 (Election Day), there will be a GREAT JUDGMENT in our nation and as several other nations.  However, if the intercessors prevail in the strength of the Father's Mighty Arm, as Moses experienced in Exodus 17, we will begin to see much that has been lost in our nation by the concessions of the American Church restored!  Once again THE KEYSTONE STATE must take the lead as William Penn did in the 17th & 18th centuries and MODEL TO THE ALL PEOPLES THE GLORY OF THE RISEN SAVIOR.

Let us call October 28, 2008, 326th Anniversary of that glorious day & ONE WEEK PRIOR TO 11/4 ELECTION, as the beginning of A WEEK OF HUMILIATION. FASTING & PRAYER.  I join you and I will encourage intercessors across America to merge our hearts with yours & with the HEART OF THE ONE WHO LIVES TO INTERCEDE ON OUR BEHALF!

Would read President Abraham Lincoln's call to our nation for prayer and fasting in 1863 and prepare your heart for the week of humble prayer?  Go to www.appleseeds.org/day_pray.htm.

You are also invited to 10/28, 11/1 & 11/4 national conference call prayer meetings.  Please read the details below.

Joshua’s Lesson: Joining God’s Side

In these challenging days of uncertainty, there is something we can be certain about: THE TRUTH IN THE BIBLE!  Unless our prayers and decisions are based on the Word of God, we will find ourselves in “sinking sand.”  However, when we join God’s side and build our foundation upon the ROCK, we will experience what Joshua experienced in his battles of claiming “The Promised Land.”

Joshua 5:13-15 (Just prior to Israel’s victory at Jericho):

Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to him and asked, "Are you for us or for our enemies?" "Neither," he replied, "but as commander of the army of the LORD I have now come." Then Joshua fell facedown to the ground in reverence, and asked him, "What message does my Lord have for his servant?" The commander of the LORD's army replied, "Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy." And Joshua did so.

Joshua was victorious at Jericho because he humbled himself before God and willingly joined the Lord’s side rather than asking him to join Israel’s side.  General Washington and President Lincoln did the same during our nation’s most difficult days.    

 

Current events in the Middle East, Afghanistan, India, Russia & America ought to bring us to our knees, with hearts that are consecrated to do the Father’s will.  Any other attempt will only give greater power to “the enemy of our souls” who will continue to steal, to kill and to destroy.  Will the Church allow God to correct us and use us for His purposes? 

Let us seek His Kingdom rather than attempting to build our own!

Please consider “Born for Battle: 31 Lessons in Spiritual Warfare” by R. Arthur Mathews during this season of national prayer & fasting.
