Thanksgiving of 1621/2008

For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.  2 Chronicles 16:9a

Although King Asa did not heed to this Word of the Lord spoken through Prophet Hanani, the Pilgrims did!  When the Lord saw that this persecuted English believers were loyal only to the King of kings, He used miracles to allow them to land in Plymouth Rock (rather than Virginia), meet Squanto (a Native American knew Jesus and spoke English!), survive to celebrate the First Thanksgiving (with new friends), and write the Mayflower Compact (which was the forerunner of our constitution!!!).  America’s Thanksgiving is incomplete without a careful study of what God did in and through the Pilgrims, and the Natives who were used to rescue them, nearly 400 years ago.  Please read the articles in the following links:

Prevailing Intercession for the Persecuted Church

Elizabeth, Intercessor from MA, wrote:

In the upcoming weeks, is it possible to consider praying for the following issues? 

Praying for persecuted Christians: An estimated 200 million Christians in 60 countries are at risk of being persecuted.  Christians are exiting Iraq to escape death.  Christians are being persecuted in Orissa, India.  Christians continue to be persecuted in Sudan, Ethiopia, North Korea and China.  Believers in Columbia who stand against the drug lords are assassinated.  Countless nations are persecuting our brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus.
