The Devil’s Plans Always Backfire [Beginning on 4/21, I asked my brother, Tim Sheets, to share some thoughts with us over the next few days, so we can pray with spiritual insight. We are going to talk about what God has to say to the Church and this nation right now.] DUTCH SHEETS: A lot of people are out of work right now. People are struggling. What we have to do is say, “If we put our faith, hope, and trust in Him, then we will be like Joseph. What the enemy meant for evil, God is going to turn it around for good.” The things happening in this season are going to further His purposes for the earth. It’s also going to further His purposes for us. I’m certainly not encouraged by a virus. I’m encouraged by the response of the Church! TIM SHEETS I agree. I feel that God has prepared us. It’s everywhere. This is no longer a small thing. Matthew 16:18-19 tells us about a reigning Church or Ekklesia. Ten years ago, when we started teaching on this, people wondered what we were talking about. Now, the Ekklesia has arisen and many are aligned with it. They are declaring very mature, very insightful Words that are not based on their opinion. They are coming through doctrinal foundations in God’s Word. To me, that’s a game-changer. To me, that’s when revival can roll. To me, that’s when signs, wonders, and miracles start. I’m encouraged, because I believe we are now headed into the greatest season of breakthroughs the Church has ever seen. We’ve been prophesying the greatest harvest that we’ve ever seen and we are going to see it. This is going to backfire on the devil. Eventually, every plan he’s ever had or carried out has backfired. The Cross was the greatest plan he ever tried and that sure backfired on him. Then, he thought he would persecute the early Church and scatter them everywhere. The Church rapidly spread to Asia Minor, Thessalonika, and all over. The world turned upside down everywhere they went. In modern times, we can look at the persecution in China. The underground church exploded. Satan’s plans always backfire. “And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matthew 16:18-19; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Don’t despair! Lift up your head and fix your eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. Say out loud, “Joseph thought he was imprisoned and forgotten. I will put my faith, hope, and trust in Jesus, just like Joseph did. What the enemy meant for evil in my life, God is going to turn it around for good.” Declare over the Church, “We have been given the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Bind demonic plans of darkness to limit and destroy the people of the earth. Declare God’s light of truth to shine in the darkness. Loose Truth and the ability for people to see it and discern it. Don’t think politically, think spiritually. Loose the power and presence of God through the Church opening their mouths in intercession, declaration, and decree. Decree that there is no hinderance to the advancement of the Gospel into the earth. Loose the Gospel’s spread throughout the earth in unprecedented measure. A prayer you can pray: Lord, I lift my head and fix my eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith. Forgive me when I look focus and forget all of Your goodness toward me. I would surely despair if I had not ever seen Your goodness in the land of the living, but I have! I can look back through my life and remember all the places I thought I wasn’t coming through, but here I am! I am grateful for Your goodness and Your provision. I remember Joseph. He also thought he was imprisoned and forgotten. I will put my faith, hope, and trust in Jesus, just like Joseph did. What the enemy meant for evil in my life, You are turning it around for good. You have developed an Ekklesia over the last ten years or so that knows how to war. We know how to reign with You over the enemy’s plans. We may get down for a moment, but we get each other back up on our feet. We help each other find the words to proclaim and decree. We are obedient to decree what You say to decree. We bind all the plans the enemy is putting forth to steal, kill and destroy. People can’t take this, Lord. Have mercy on us. We need to see Your hand, so we command the enemy to stop in his tracks! We say, “Blind eyes, open! Deaf ears, hear! Let the lost hear the Word of the Lord and see the love of Christ for you!” We loose evangelism through every possible medium into the earth now! We say the harvest is coming in! Amen. Today’s decree: Satan’s plans to restrict and limit the Church in this season are going to backfire! Learn more about Tim Sheets here.

Bringing a Message of Hope [Beginning on 4/21, I asked my brother, Tim Sheets, to share some thoughts with us over the next few days, so we can pray with spiritual insight. We are going to talk about what God has to say to the Church and this nation right now.] TIM SHEETS: I believe that the Ekklesia has answers for the time we are in. We have been trained for some 10 years now. It’s time for us now. It’s time for us to make our stand. It’s time to rise from the trenches and begin the reigning. You can hear in the voices God’s given us in this generation that the prophets and apostles are not discouraged. They are giving a clarion call, “It’s time to stand up. It’s time to declare the Word of the Lord.” That’s what we’re going to do. DUTCH SHEETS: I have seen the same. Among those in leadership I have been speaking to, as well as those leaving comments on various online events, there is no fear. There’s no disillusionment. I see compassion and prayers for people who are suffering and hurting. There has been discussion about how to minister compassionately. There is zero intimidation, fear, or confusion. I have been struck by the fact that I feel like I’m watching and listening to a spiritual special forces. They are ready for whatever the assignment is. I thought back 30 years to the end of the Charismatic movement. Back then, when traumatic events happened, there was almost a despair. Everyone would be saying, “If we could only get a Word from God. If there was only a prophet that could tell us what God might be saying right now.” So, I thought to myself, “What has God done in the last 20 to 30 years?” On one recent livestream call, there were dozens of Believers on the call. Every single person had a Word from the Lord or knew what He was saying. They weren’t listening to the enemy. They weren’t listening to a fearful media barrage. They were listening to the Lord. They had profound, wise, mature strategies in how to pray. They could easily share what God was showing them. He has matured an element of the Body of Christ. He has restored apostles and prophets. I am happy to proclaim, “There is no drought of the Word of the Lord.” Because of this, we didn’t even have to wonder why we were taken by surprise, although some prophets heard a bit of what was coming. There is a company of people that God has made ready. This is going to further revival and awakening. “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.” (1 Corinthians 16:13; ESV) “In your hearts, revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. Do this with gentleness and respect.” (1 Peter 3:15; NLT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Rejoice! Rejoice! The Lord is to be praised, for He is doing a marvelous thing! If we had been told about this sooner, we wouldn’t have believed it! If you have been feeling “down”, anxious, or afraid, literally stand up. Stand up and declare, “God is in control! I am His and He is mine! Jesus is the lifter of my head! He is always good and His goodness toward me is overflowing. Therefore, I will not fear, but I will look to those mountains. Where is my help coming from? My help comes from the Lord, who is the Maker of the heavens and the earth. He created all things by the word of His mouth. He will create a beautiful future for me and my family, and for this nation. I put my trust again today in Him alone.” Intercede for others you know that are afraid, stressed, have lost jobs, are sick, or otherwise in need. God loves them and cares about them. Pray for them over the phone, if possible. Don’t let the enemy isolate you. Jump on a prayer call or online prayer event. Call a friend or two and pray over the phone. Interact with one another. Declare the Word of God as He shows it you, and form the future with your faith and His Word. A prayer you can pray: Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your Name in all the earth! The earth and the fullness of it are Yours. You created all things and by Your Word all was created! Nothing was created, except by You. You are the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. You see the end from the beginning. You care for us, and You are always good! You will not give us snakes or other harmful things. You are the Giver of life and that abundantly. Where the enemy has come to steal, kill, and destroy, You will intervene and stop him, as Your beautiful Church humbles itself to pray. You will save us and You will save our nation. We declare, “God, You are in control! I am Yours and You are mine! Jesus, You are the lifter of my head! You are always good and Your goodness toward me is overflowing. Therefore, I will not fear, but I will look to the mountains that have risen up all around me. Where is my help coming from? My help comes from You, Lord, who is the Maker of the heavens and the earth. You will create a beautiful future for me and my family, and for this nation. I put my trust again today in You alone.” Let my family and friends know this, as well. Give me perfect answers to their questions, especially when they don’t know You yet, Jesus. Let me rise up and war for their souls, as this is that season of harvest. What the enemy meant for evil, You are going to turn it for good! Let the Church be seen, and let us show You to the world around us. Let them see that we are unafraid and full of faith in the One we know and love. Amen. Today’s decree: God has been creating a spiritual special forces, ready to do His will! Learn more about Tim Sheets here.

Bringing a Message of Hope [Beginning on 4/21, I asked my brother, Tim Sheets, to share some thoughts with us over the next few days, so we can pray with spiritual insight. We are going to talk about what God has to say to the Church and this nation right now.] TIM SHEETS: “Millions are right now being awakened to what the Deep State is doing and the agenda of hell being enacted in the world right now. I see that as a good thing. It’s an awakening for them to arise and do something about this. I also see that hell has been trying to back us off and wear us out. However, it’s having the opposite effect. “I love the Message version of what Paul said about his confinement to jail. He said, ‘They didn’t shut me up. They gave me a pulpit.’ He goes on to say, ‘I’m headed for a flourishing finish.’ I believe that’s the attitude we’re supposed to have, and I believe that’s what’s going to happen. The world’s not going to shut us up. We are going to have a ‘flourishing finish’. “The Ekklesia has been given a ‘pulpit’ right now to speak to the whole world. People are wanting to hear what God says. They’re wanting to hear a message of hope, and we have it! They want to hear it right now. We are hearing so many voices. It’s really horrendous to hear constantly what the scientists and the media are saying. However, we need to know and proclaim, ‘What does God say?’ What God is saying is, ‘I have not lost sight of My plans for you.’ He is also saying, ‘My Ekklesia is going to rise and give My answers.’” “The god who rules this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers. They cannot see the light, which is the good news about our glorious Christ, who shows what God is like.” (2 Corinthians 4:4; CEV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Intercede for those who are suffering, because they have no anchor for their soul. Our anchor is in Christ. Ask the Lord to be merciful and remove the blinders off the eyes of the unbelievers. Pray that they will be able to see Jesus, and hear the Holy Spirit calling them to repentance. Declare, “God is speaking to His people, ‘I have not lost sight of My plans for you. You are secure in Me and My plans for you are secure!” Say over the Ekklesia, “Rise up! Testify! Get answers from heaven and proclaim them wherever you can!” A prayer you can pray: Father, You love the lost! We, Your Church, must understand the times we are in. What the enemy means for evil, You are turning for good. Scientists and the media are scaring people with their constant negative reports. You are raising Your Church up to testify of life and hope to those currently blinded to Jesus. Jesus, You are the way, the truth and the life. No one can see You or come to You unless the Holy Spirit removes their blinders and draws them to You. As we proclaim, unveil their eyes, unstop their ears, and soften their hearts. Turn their fear to great joy. Let this dark time become their day of salvation—the greatest moment of their life! Let them have a testimony that they cannot help but share with everyone they know, too. As You embolden us, fill our hearts to overflowing with Your words and testimonies. Let us not keep silent! Let us pray and proclaim. Let us intercede and take action! Let us see that You have not lost sight of the plans You have for us. What seems impossible is now more possible than ever! In fact, these will be our best days! Let us say, as the Apostle Paul did, when he was confined, “They didn’t shut me up. They gave me a pulpit. And, I will finish my course with a flourish!” We shout, “Grace,” to life’s greatest mountains around us, Lord Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: The Church has a message of hope that the world wants to hear right now! Learn more about Tim Sheets here.

It’s Testimony Time! [I have asked my brother, Tim Sheets, to share some thoughts with us over the next few days, so we can pray with spiritual insight. We are going to talk about what God has to say to the Church and this nation right now.] We are in the midst of the coronavirus situation. In some places the impact was very strong. In some places, it is still increasing. In other places, it looks like it is flattening, even waning. Some places have seen no cases at all, but they have still been economically impacted. We hear what the media says and what the government officials are saying. The most important thing is to hear what God is saying in this. He always has a plan that is higher than what the enemy is trying to do. He is not going to allow His own agenda, plans, and timing to be altered through this situation. We, the Church, His Ekklesia, His government on the earth, must listen to Him and do what He says. I believe the praying Church is rising up and is strong in faith. I believe God has been and will continue to use us. We are not to be reactionary, but to act and determine what will take place as He leads us. My brother, Tim, was one of those alerted by the Lord months before this began that something of this nature was coming. So, here is what he has to share with us. TIM SHEETS “I believe something big is underway. I don’t have a feeling of gloom or doom at all. I believe revival is at hand. I don’t think this coronavirus is going to stop anything God has promised—His prophetic words, or prophetic dreams that we’ve had come forth. Nothing will be hindered by this. The Ekklesia will continue to rise. I feel like an aggressive faith is starting to rise in the remnant. There is a boldness rising up. “I feel that the whole situation that hell has caused is actually going to backfire. The Apostle Paul made a statement in Philippians 1:12. He was in jail. He was in confinement, which our whole nation is now in. He said not to be upset, because ‘this will go to the furtherance of the Gospel.’ In verse 19, he said, ‘This is going to turn for our deliverance.’ In thinking about him being in confinement and comparing it to us, millions of Christians are at home all day with nothing much to do. This is so they can pray. And, they can pray a lot. They can witness over social media. They can share their testimonies and pray for their friends and family members.” “But I want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel, so that it has become evident to the whole palace guard, and to all the rest, that my chains are in Christ; and most of the brethren in the Lord, having become confident by my chains, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.” (Philippians 1:12-14; NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Thank the Lord for this season of confinement! Assess where you and your family are at? How has He cared for you? What can you testify of? This is good time to process if you are praying, or simply watching the news and processing it. Make prayer points as you watch, then, decree and declare what you believe the Lord’s will is in all of this. If you are comfortable. Write or video your testimonies on social media platforms. If you have a gift to worship, worship online. Sing some hymns everyone knows. Put your gifts out there. A prayer you can pray: Lord, I may be weary of this season of confinement, but let me benefit from it. You have been so good to my family and me! I can testify of Your goodness. You are building a greater testimony in the Church. Deepen my relationship with you in this season of limitation. Move me to pray, and pray some more. Where I’m filling my day looking for information, let me turn that into intercession. Mix my prayers with the Word and let decrees form. I will decree Your decrees over the nation and we will see Your good ness manifest. The people are growing weary of being confined. They want and need to work. I say that wise strategies and answers will come forth and the nation will open back up. Where dark plans of the enemy threatened to undo us, reverse the process. Send Your angels to help us, Lord. Grace, grace, grace! I can pray and I can decree and I can testify. Show me what my part is to expand Your kingdom throughout my realm of authority now. What is my part of making You known? Let the airwaves be filled with the Glory of God in intercession, declaration, in worship, and in testimony in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: It is time to testify to the world of God’s goodness and mercy!

America is a Nation With a Destiny [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This is the final day.] The dream about President Trump continued: All of a sudden there was a huge slingshot that appeared near President Trump. He stood up and positioned himself inside it. A hand came, pulled him back in the slingshot, and launched him from that place. He had all of the items he had found in the wooden crate with him in the launch. Just as he was launched from the slingshot, those people that had been in the river holding the wooden crate came up and tried to stop him. But it was too late. He was already airborne, and they could not touch him. I saw him land. The landing was like what you see when someone lands from parachute jump – a perfect landing on his feet. The place he landed was on the platform at the top of the steps of the Capitol building in Washington, D.C. It was Inauguration Day, and he was giving an inaugural address. This tells me he will be re-elected. They will not be able to stop him. And he will finish what God has sent him there to do. He has not done, even remotely, all of what God has sent him there to do. God’s going to meet this president. He’s going to know the Lord well, and God’s going to continue to use him. The dreamer went on to talk about his inaugural address. It wasn’t like a normal speech. He put the Appeal to Heaven flag around his shoulders there, on the steps of the Capitol, and he held the old Bible in his hands. I then realized this was the Bible he had been sworn in with at his last inauguration ceremony. I believe it belonged to his mother, and had connections to the great Welsh Revival. He was still crying as he said, “God is taking us back and he’s giving us a new start now. We are rightly focused. We’re getting back on track.” He then led the nation in a prayer of sincere repentance. Then, he took the communion elements he had found in the wooden crate and he led the nation in communion. What a profound dream. God is going to use this president to be a part of turning the nation back to Him. President Trump doesn’t have to be perfect. He doesn’t have to have had a perfect past. As the leader of our nation, he just has to humble himself before God. He will have encounters with the Lord, where the Lord can give him wisdom and lead him in repentance. Prayer from this man would be earth shattering. I believe he’s coming into a relationship with the Lord that will be strong and very deep. I believe what was said in this dream is true. God is taking us back. He’s recovering this nation to Himself. He’s giving us a new start, and those opposing Him will not be able to stop it. He said in the dream that we are now rightly focused. We’re going to focus on Him. We’re going to focus on true greatness, which is not wealth, but to be a voice of the Gospel to the ends of the earth and a voice of freedom. We’re going to be a voice of morality and purity, and to show what a nation that honors God, and is under God, looks like. Everything God intended for this nation is going to take place. Keep making your appeals. It is working. “The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!” (Psalm 33:10-12; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Say, “Nothing can stop the plans of God for this nation. Nothing and noone can stop Him from using Donald John Trump to accomplish them in this season.” Say, “Donald John Trump will be re-elected and God’s going to meet this president. He’s going to know the Lord well, and God’s going to continue to use him.” Say, “The Lord is comforting His people and He is drawing us to Himself. We are falling in love with Jesus all over again.” Say, “People are seeking God in unprecedented measure in this crisis and the Great Awakening is happening! We will see the fruit of it as we come out of the hidden place! The Glory of the Lord is blanketing America. He will be seen.” Say, “When we come out of this, our nation will not be the same. It will be better than before!” Delare over America Psalm 33:10-12, “The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!” A prayer you can pray: God, only You can turn such a crisis around into an unprecedented blessing! This looks like total destruction, but You are at work. We’re getting back on track. Nothing can stop this. We’re going to keep praying. We’re going to beat our plowshares into swords, and we’re going to decree the Word of the Lord over this nation. We’re decreeing health. We’re decreeing the breaking of this plague. We’re decreeing that the quickest financial recovery the Earth has ever seen is about to take place in America. God, You are going to give incredible strategy through the president and other staff. This nation will turn around! It will turn around with health. When we come out of this, our nation will not be the same. It will be better than before! You are using and will continue to use President Trump. He will seek You and find You and he will be re-elected. He will know what to do, as he grows in intimacy with You. You will give him a wisdom greater than what he possesses in the natural. Nothing can stop the plans You have for this nation. Nothing and no one can stop You from using Donald John Trump to accomplish them in this season. America will turn around spiritually. You are comforting Your people and You are drawing us to Yourself. We are falling in love with Jesus all over again. A Third Great Awakening is coming, and we’re going to get back on track. People are seeking God in unprecedented measure in this crisis and the Great Awakening is happening! We will see the fruit of it as we come out of the hidden place! Your Glory, Lord, is blanketing America. You will be seen! We look forward to all of this in Jesus’ Name. Amen. Today’s decree: America is destined to show what a nation that honors God looks like.

President Trump Will Find Christ in Our Nation’s History [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know was coming when the dreams were given.] The day after I returned home from my prayer journey to Valley Forge and Washington, D.C., another dream was sent to me. This dream is so encouraging. On April 7, 2020, I dreamt President Trump was walking on the bank of a small river. The dreamer said she believed this was the same river that we saw at Valley Forge, where President Washington prayed and where we prayed when we went there. At first, it seemed he was pacing back and forth. But then I realized he was actually looking for something. He said, “I was told something had been left for me here and I came to find it. I thought I could find it here, but I’m not seeing it.” He continued to search, but finding nothing, he turned to walk away. Just as he turned, there was a wooden box measuring about three feet wide, a foot in height, and two feet from front to back. It came bobbing up in the water. I could see that down in the water there were several people lying on the bottom of the river. They had been holding the box, but they lost their grip on it, and it just rushed to the surface. It made a splash, and President Trump turned to see what it was. When he saw the wooden crate, he reached out, grabbed it, and pulled it to the bank. He then took a knife from his pocket and used it to open the lid to the crate. We jumped in front of him to say, “There are people trying to influence our present in a wrong way. There are spiritual forces trying to keep you from seeing when you need to see. They are trying to keep our nation from seeing what it needs to see. They are trying to keep our people from doing what they need to do. They’re trying desperately to keep this nation from turning back to our purpose; our destiny of being the trumpet of the Gospel to the ends of the Earth. They are trying to keep us from being a beacon of freedom and liberty, and a nation under God himself.” God is using this president to turn the nation. He is going to use him even more. No one will stop him. Back to the dream. Inside the crate, President Trump found an old Bible, an Appeal to Heaven flag, and communion elements—a cup of wine and bread. He immediately took the Appeal to Heaven flag and draped it over his shoulders. Just like Washington did at Valley Forge long ago, he went down on one knee. The dreamer said he put the old Bible on his left forearm, held the cup of wine in his left hand, the bread in his right. Then, with tears flowing from his eyes, he began to pray with the Appeal to Heaven flag still draped over his shoulders. He looked down at the Bible and the Communion elements with such admiration, and he said, “This is it. This is what I came to find, and I’m starting now.” He came to find Passover. He came to find the cross. He came to find prayer. He came to find what Christ did. He came to find that connection with the Lord that might be greater than he’s ever had. I believe this will happen. He came to connect with our roots, and he found them. “This is what the Lord says to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: I will go before you. I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name.” (Isaiah 45:1 and3; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Thank the Lord for President Donald John Trump. Believe the prophets who have been saying that this man will come to be saved, and will be discipled by those he has brought around himself while he is in office. Intercede for President Trump’s salvation, discipleship and process of sanctification. He is in an office with pressures none of us can understand. Pray over President Trump, “You will find in America’s history stories of other presidents who knew God and sought Him at critical times in the past. They knew they couldn’t lead the country without God’s intervention. They knew the nation needed miracles to move forward. They knew they didn’t have enough within themselves to get the job done. So, they humbled themselves and appealed to heaven. President Trump, trust Jesus, and do the same.” Declare the Word of the Lord given to Cyrus over President Trump, as he has been likened to Cyrus by many prophets, “This is what the Lord says to his anointed, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: I will go before you. I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name.” A prayer you can pray: Lord, we thank you for our president, President Donald John Trump. Even before he came on the scene, prophets had been saying he would be president some day. Your hand has been on him a long time. You knew the season You were grooming him for. Not many could have continued to stand under all that he has had to endure. And, now he is facing one of the greatest seasons of darkness ever in the history of mankind. Draw him to Yourself, Lord. Give him what he needs to be saved, discipled, and grow in the wisdom and knowledge of You. Show him how other presidents, like George Washington and Abraham Lincoln sought You in times of great difficulty for the nation. Let him humble himself and seek You regularly for wisdom and direction. We pray over him, “You will find in America’s history stories of other presidents who knew God and sought Him at critical times in the past. They knew they couldn’t lead the country without God’s intervention. They knew the nation needed miracles to move forward. They knew they didn’t have enough within themselves to get the job done. So, they humbled themselves and appealed to heaven. President Trump, trust Jesus, and do the same.” We decree the words you spoke over Cyrus long ago, as the prophets today have said that this man is as a Cyrus in our time, “This is what the Lord says to his anointed, whose right hand I take hold of to subdue nations before him and to strip kings of their armor, to open doors before him so that gates will not be shut: I will go before you. I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name.” In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen. Today’s decree: President Trump will embrace the fullness of Christ, and he shall be saved.

We Will Fight on Our Knees Until America Turns to God [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know was coming when the dreams were given.] On my drive home from Washington, D.C., the next day, the same gentleman that had the Valley Forge dreams called me. He said, “I had another dream last night and in this dream, you gathered leaders that are connected to you and you said to them, “Call the blacksmith.” Well, that’s significant because Valley Forge is named after a forge. It was there and it’s symbolic. Our nation was forged by the Word of the Lord and the brave obedience of His people. So I said in the dream, “Call the blacksmiths and tell them to beat the plowshares back into swords.” This is an amazing word that comes from the book of Joel, chapter 3, verse 10. The Bible says, “Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’” I said in the dream, “Tell people to do this.” Then he said, “The altars of America and the churches of America must now be cleansed.” I feel like what the Lord is saying through this dream is that we continue to fight. We make our decrees. The sword represents the sword of the Lord, which is the Word of God. We continue to decree over our nation that revival is coming. He will cleanse our nation. There will be repentance. There will be a turning. He’s not finished with America. He’s coming to destroy the thief who comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Our sins and our turning away from God do allow things like these plagues and other things to happen to us. However, it is not God sending death to elderly people and to innocent people across this nation. It is the evil one, using what we have done, and coming through open doors that we’ve created. He is doing this. But God is merciful, and in his mercy, He is coming to save us. He’s going to use it to turn this nation back to him and to Jesus. He saved the nation at Valley Forge. He’s going to save the nation at this generation’s Valley Forge. He’s going to save the nation physically and economically and spiritually. We’re going to see it turning back to Him. We’re going to see a complete fulfillment of what He set out to do in the early days, when He birthed this nation. He will accomplish that. That’s what He’s saying, so I’m saying to you, “Decree over your families. Release your sword over your families. Bind the enemy from sending the plague into your home.” We just completed the Passover season. You can still figuratively put the blood over your door post as a symbolic act. You can go to your doors and windows and say, “The blood of Jesus is over this house. He covers our hearts. He covers our minds. He covers our bodies. The plague will not come near my dwelling.” Open your Bible to Psalm 91 and pray it over your home and family. As a nation, curse the plague, release the blessing, and call forth revival to America! “Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears; let the weak say, ‘I am strong.’” (Joel 3:10; NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Ask the Lord for scriptures you can declare over the nation, over your state, over your church, and over your family to move into the next phase of our nation’s transition. Spend a few minutes thanking the Lord for His goodness to your family during these challenging weeks. Repent on behalf of each of the entities above regarding any sin the Lord wants to remove – idolatry, corruption, greed, sexual sin, doubt and unbelief, etc. Let the Holy Spirit lead you. Make decrees over your families. Release your sword of the Word over your families in the form of the scriptures He gave you. Bind the enemy from sending the plague into your home. Lay your hands on your doors and windows and say, “The blood of Jesus is over this house. He covers our hearts. He covers our minds. He covers our bodies. The plague will not come near my dwelling.” Pray Psalm 91 over your household and any others He leads you to pray over. Now, intercede for the church or congregation you are connected to. Tell the Lord you want your congregation to have more passion for Him, a pure and cleansed heart, and to shift into the new as we move forward. A prayer you can pray: God, we want to be blacksmiths. We want to forge weapons of war from the Holy Scriptures; verses from the Bible, Your Word. How You treasure Your Word, Lord. It means more to You than Your own name. Jesus, You are the Living Word, the fulfillment of every promise in the Word. You are the embodiment of His Word, and our Savior and Deliverer. Put Your words in our mouths. Let us decree Your decrees over our families, our cities, states, and this nation, as we often do. However, let there be a difference today, because we are warring for a future! We are coming out of extraordinary days. We have been tucked in with You due to the edicts of our governing leaders. As that season ends, we want to be found different. We want our own hearts to be examined by You and cleansed. We want our households to be different. We say, “The blood of Jesus is over this house. You cover our hearts. You cover our minds. You cover our bodies. The plague will not come near our dwelling. Knit our hearts together in You.” We want our churches to be aligned in righteousness and holiness with You as we repent of any corporate sin. Move us into the new! Finally, from the altars of our hearts, our homes and our congregations, we want our nation to be new. We want to see You moving in new ways in America. We pray as Daniel prayed, “Forgive us our national sin. Forgive us our national iniquities. Come to us, Lord, as never before. Make us the nation You envision us to be. Let many come out of these days of being tucked away declaring they have found You in the hiddenness. Thank You, Jesus, amen. Today’s decree: The altars of our hearts and the churches of America will be cleansed.

Re-covenanting This Nation to God [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know was coming when the dreams were given.] I knew that these dreams were an assignment God was giving me to go to Valley Forge and to go on to Washington D.C. He wanted me to go there, connect with the past, and release the synergy of the ages and the angels. Just as Elijah’s words didn’t fall to the ground, but were used by the Lord to turn a nation, He would use our decrees to do the same. We went to Valley Forge and had a powerful prayer time. We weren’t allowed to gather in the park. All the parking places were closed. They wouldn’t let people park along the side of the road because they were trying to keep people out. They would not stop you from walking trails, and if you were not in groups, you could walk through some of the grounds. So, we tried to pull off the road close to Washington’s headquarters. The house is still there, where he headquartered at Valley Forge. That’s where we wanted to pray and take the Appeal to Heaven flag and 12 small stones from the Delaware River that He had directed us to bring. As we parked there, Rangers came by and told us very, very firmly, “This park is closed. You cannot park here and you need to leave. We appealed to them and told them what we wanted to do. They basically said, “The park is closed and you cannot park here. If you walk around, not being in a group, we’re not going to stop you.” So, three of us were dropped off and the other person took the car elsewhere, and we walked down the stream in front of Washington’s headquarters. That’s significant, because, rather than forcing us to leave, we were able to go for an hour and pray on the edge of this stream where Washington had prayed many, many times at Valley Forge. I am confident that not only had he prayed there, the Appeal to Heaven flag had flown there. It was there that God shaped the army and shaped this man and answered his prayers. We were able to go back to that very place and make our appeal. We did exactly as the dream said for us to do. We took the Appeal to Heaven flag. We took the 12 small stones from the Delaware River at Penn Treaty Park, representing God’s covenant with America. We got our phones out and, through our “mega-phones”, we blanketed the nation with decrees over America that America will be saved and God will rebirth this nation. Then we drove to Washington, D.C., and did the same thing under the statue of George Washington. We pointed in the directions of the nation as shown to us in the dream. I can only say to you, in both of these prayer journeys, our prayer times were profoundly anointed and significant. We have no doubt that angels were helping us, that our decrees were blanketing the nation and God was doing what He said. “He remembers his covenant forever, the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations.” (Psalm 105:8; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Intercede over the recent re-covenanting Dutch and his fellow intercessors did. Proclaim it secured and under Christ’s shed blood, firm and unending until God has fulfilled every bit of it. Declare, “The Lord remembers His covenant forever! God re-covenant America with the promises You made to our forefathers! You called America to be a city set on a hill; one from which to send Your light into the nations!” Are you aware of prophetic Words given over your city, state, or region, even long ago? Get them out and proclaim them. Decree them as if they have already come to pass! Believe that they will! Is there something the Lord has promised you, either in His Word or by the Word of a valid prophetic voice? Bring that before Him now. There is a time to pray and a time to act. If the Lord shows you to go and do a prophetic act to secure a covenant, go and do it. Don’t look at obstacles. Know that if God’s leading you to do it, there will be a way. A prayer you can pray: Father, I love reading these stories of how You lead Your people to do great exploits. Your people are led by dreams, visions, Words of the Lord and the written Word. We are also often led by the still small voice of Your Holy Spirit whispering to our spirit. Take our fear away and give us faith to act on these directions. There is nothing but freedom and blessing in it. We join our faith to the prayers and decrees Dutch and his friends released as they were obedient to Your leading, guiding, and directing. How powerful a thing to join their prayers to those of General George Washington right where he once knelt and prayed. What joy to pray under the same flag, placing stones of remembrance from the place of covenant you gave to William Penn. God, You are truly the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. You renew Your covenant with each generation until it is fulfilled. The Lord remembers His covenant forever! God re-covenant America with the promises You made to our forefathers! You called America to be a city set on a hill; one from which to send Your light into the nations! You make sure men and women of God in America from generation to generation remember it. Show us the promises given by You to our cities, states, and regions. Help us to find them and declare them boldly, as if the Words have already come to pass. In Your heart, they already have! Fulfill those things You have promised Lord. We humbly intercede in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: God is leading us to re-covenant this nation to Him!

God is Fulfilling His Purpose for America Through Our Decrees [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know was coming when the dreams were given.] The third part of the dream: So as the decrees would come out the end of the megaphone, eagles would fly in and pick them up. There was no randomness to their flight. They knew exactly where they were to go with them. They’d carry the decrees to the point of their assignment. There they would drop each decree. When they dropped the decree, it would become what looked like a white sheet. I believe the eagles were angels that were carrying these decrees throughout the nation. They covered the nation like a sheet. Some were dropped on land, some on buildings, and some on churches (and not just charismatic churches.) The eagles were assigned to Washington, D.C., and to different parts of the entire nation, even though initially it was the northwest. They first went to a port in Washington state, then all the way down the West Coast to the southern part of California. Then, they blanketed the nation. The one who had the dream said, “There was no delay. Decrees were instantly delivered to their assigned places. There were words written on the sheets that were carried, and obviously the words were the decrees.” She could only see the words on one. It was the word “saved”. I know that’s the primary message the Lord wanted to bring. “America will be saved.” So, I knew based on these dreams in October of last year that at a certain time, late March through early April, I would need to go to Washington, D.C., and Valley Forge to make decrees over the nation and release angels. I always take a small group for agreement. The group holding the megaphone in the dream confirmed this was needed. So in early March, I began to plan this endeavor. Then the virus was beginning to grow and restrictions were beginning to be placed on us. It was apparent how big and how devastating this could be. So at first I thought, “Well, it’s a small group. We can still do this with 15 to 20 people.” However, the closer we got to the date, which was at the end of March, it became obvious that this couldn’t happen. Because of what the president was asking, and governors were asking, I knew we should not take a group of even that size to do this. It wasn’t safe. Parts of Washington, D.C., closed down, and at Valley Forge, the entrance to the park was closed. I also wanted to be supportive of what the president was asking us to do and not take a group to do this. So my first thought was that I would just postpone it and do it later. But, the more I prayed into this, the more I realized that there was no reason for God to give the cherry blossoms in this dream other than timing. If I waited until the end of April, they would be gone, and I would not be doing it at the time he said to do it. So I sought the Lord and said, “Lord, how can I fulfill this?” He put in my heart to go by myself. One couple that lives in Washington, D.C., could meet me there. We could still do the social distancing and and could walk and pray, and I could have that agreement. We could also get the entire team that had been planning to go with me on their phones and do a conference prayer call. Then, I realized why God gave us this unusual picture in the dream of using megaphones. It was a group on their phones making an amplified agreement of the decrees together. Then we realized it was going to be done. We knew we could cover the nation through this phone prayer time. We put it together and planned to do that. “God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it?” (Numbers 23:19; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Yesterday, we focussed our prayers on the west coast of America. Focus them today on your state and city. Make the decrees the Lord gives you. Now, focus your decrees on Washington, D.C. Now, make decrees over the entire nation. Be passionate! Be confident! Feel the synergy of other Believers decreeing with you. Decree in authority, grace, and strength. Remember that God has said, “America shall be saved!” A prayer you can pray: [This is one of those days I cannot write what you should pray. You decree the decrees God shows you over those places he puts on your heart. Focus on the areas listed above in the prayer points. Decree, Ekklesia of God, and know He is decreeing through you! America shall be saved!] Today’s decree: God is decreeing His will over America through His Ekklesia. His promises to America will come to pass!

Decreeing the Captives Free [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know what was coming when the dreams were given.] Here’s the second part of the dream that led me on the prayer journey: She (the dreamer) then said, “My noticing some specific scenes in the dream seemed to be significant: The gun that Washington was holding was pointing toward the southwest and then the statue would pivot. I don’t know how far around it could pivot, but I knew it could go from northwest to southwest, because I saw it moving those directions.” She went on, “Under the front legs of the statue of the rearing horse, was Dutch Sheets.” (Yeah, I knew again, I’m gonna have to go. This is more than symbolic. I just knew it as I read it. So I have to go to Valley Forge and I have to go to Washington, D.C.) Then she said, “I don’t know who he was talking to, but he turned while standing under the horse of Washington. He turned to his right and said, ‘It’s time.’ It was like what he was about to do had been reserved for a specific time—the time of the cherry blossoms.” She concluded, “There was a huge megaphone that appeared about the size of a three or four story building. I knew Dutch couldn’t lift that up, but all of a sudden there was a group of people surrounding or aligning the megaphone. They picked it up and held it on their shoulders, and put it to Dutch’s mouth as he stood under the statue. Then he faced and spoke in whatever direction the gun in Washington’s hand was pointed. When the gun moved, Dutch moved, and the megaphone was turned to accommodate him, as the people would carry it. Dutch began to release decrees. I don’t know what the exact decrees were, but they had power in them. The power was not coming from Dutch, but it was powerful when he released the decrees.” Notice that they put the megaphone in the dream on their shoulders, which symbolizes government. And the Ekklesia is God’s government on earth. When Jesus said, “I’ll build my Ekklesia or Church,” He wasn’t talking about a building. He was talking about a legislature. To the Romans and to the Greeks in that day, the Ekklesia was a legislature or a governing body. So Jesus said, “I’m giving you keys or authority to bind and loose.” Those were government terms, and they were judicial terms. He was saying, “You’re going to be my governing agency, the governing arm of my kingdom. I’ll give you the keys to the kingdom and you’re going to bind and loose for Me. You’re going to operate in My name (or in My authority), and you will be my legislative group on the Earth.” So this was not just a dream about me. It was about His praying army. A group of people were there with me. It was about the Ekklesia, the Body of Christ, that understands that we’re each to do our part. So, even though I made the decrees in the dream, we’re all going to make these decrees. “You will also decree a thing, and it will be established for you; and light will shine on your ways.” (Job 22:28; NASB) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Call for the Ekklesia to increase in number and authority! Say, “The power of the Church is in the fullness of the Body of Christ!” Mean it. God is doing something in the west. I have specifically seen southern California. Intercede over those parts of the west that He shows you. Name cities by name and make decrees over them, as led by the Holy Spirit. Now, swing your thoughts across the coast from Washington state south and intercede over the states and cities the Lord shows you. Make decrees as he leads. See the captives being set free. See the blind eyes opening and the stupor breaking off people. See the harvest coming in! A prayer you can pray: God, we call for the full Ekklesia to rise up. Just like in Horton Hears a Who, we need every member on the wall interceding, declaring and decreeing into the atmosphere of this nation. We say, “The power of the Church is in the fullness of the Body of Christ!” We call for those in the Lutheran Church, the Methodist Church, and the Baptist Church. We call forth the true Believers in the Catholic Church and the Episcopal Church. We call the Ekklesia out of every church, every denomination. We are all needed in this hour. The harvest is ripe and we call for the laborers. We need intercessors and evangelists, teachers and pastors. We need to get on the wall together and get it finished. [Intercede as described above for the western part of the United States. Now, swing your thoughts across the coast from Washington state to southern California and intercede over the states and cities the Lord shows you. Make decrees as he leads. I think He will show each of us different things.] Lord, we call for the captives. We call for the harvest. We call for those meant to join us as Your beautiful Bride. Let none be missing. Don’t let the enemy hold any of them back. We want them! We need them! Give us the harvest of the west, in Jesus’ name! Amen. Today’s decree: The Ekklesia will decree what the Lord says over America, and America shall be saved!

How Are We Going to Go Forward? [At the end of last month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I started this series on April 13th, so if you want to go back and get caught up, you can. This will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know what was coming when the dreams were given.] Another dream was sent to me in October and this is a little more detailed dream. I’m going to share the first half today and the second half tomorrow, because there’s a lot in there. This was also from a very trusted prophet that the Lord uses to send me dreams at times. And she said, “Before going to sleep last night, I had a quick vision of a very large statue of George Washington. He was mounted on the back of a horse that was in a reared up position. In his hand, he had a gun like those used in the Revolutionary War, but he was holding it out in front of him, pointing it with one hand like a sword. That was the end of the vision.” She then said, “I went to sleep and dreamed, and the same statue was in my dream. I knew it was positioned in Washington, D.C., because I could see the lit up Lincoln Memorial and the cherry blossoms.” When that happens, and a dream is associated with Washington, D.C., and with our founding fathers and leaders from previous generations, I know it’s about our destiny as a nation. This vision and dream were about Washington, D.C., and presidents Washington and Lincoln. I knew they were about why God raised us up initially and about the synergy of the ages. God walked me through a season during the Appeal to Heaven revelation where he showed me that not only can we agree in prayer with people alive today, we can agree with those from previous generations. We can come into agreement with what God promised them and what they asked Him to do. And, if we come into agreement, there is a multiplying of power, just as happens when we agree in prayer with people in a prayer service. Hebrews 11 actually says that God can’t finish what he started through heroes of faith until the next generation comes into agreement and fulfills their part. So, when you align with the ages past appropriately in intercession, there is a synergistic release of power and anointing from Him. When she said, “I saw the Lincoln Memorial. I saw the cherry blossoms.” I knew that that was giving me the timing. There’s no other reason for the cherry blossoms to be in the dream, as far as I was concerned, other than the timing, which is the last part of March through the 1st part of April. So, I knew that this dream was about that season. “All these people earned a good reputation because of their faith, yet none of them received all that God had promised. For God had something better in mind for us, so that they would not reach perfection without us.” (Hebrews 11:39-40; NLT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: God cares about America and has a wonderful and timely unfolding of events about to occur. Begin to pray about how the ending of our season of quarantine will look. Pray about the timing. Let the story and interpretation of it guide your intercession. Say, “We cannot waste this season in time. It is strategic, and our intercession and decrees must line up with Your timing, Lord.” Understand the synergy of the ages. This is so important! Remember, God is a God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Join your prayers for America to those past saints have prayed, those like Presidents George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. We are interceding for a future for ourselves, and our children, and our children’s children. Declare, “We won’t be like King Hezekiah who only cared about the condition of his country in his own day! We bring our children and grandchildren into the place of destiny together with us!” God cares about you and your family very personally, as well as America. Chuck asked us to put our hands on our doors daily and shout, “Victory! My family and I trust You and are coming through well and whole!” Do this daily until Pentecost, Sunday, May 31st. A prayer you can pray: Father, we choose to believe You are in full control of the things happening in the earth right now. This Passover and season of celebrating Christ’s death and resurrection have been more meaningful than any we can remember. We celebrated like the ancient Hebrews did, in our homes in family units. We are growing weary of this season, but we want to grab the revelation of every bit of it. We want to see Who You are in the midst of it. We want to see what You are doing and how things are aligning. We intercede for President Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and all those on the COVID-19 Task Force, as well as the heads of other offices within our executive branch. You have helped them get us through this, now they need wisdom to move us back out again. We ask for wisdom from above, Lord. We decree that our governing leaders will seek You for direction, even as Presidents Washington and Lincoln did in the hard and difficult days they led this nation through. We say, “Let the timing of the unwinding be absolutely perfect. Let those coming out of their houses have humbled hearts ready to seek You.” Those of us who know You well cannot waste this season in time. It is strategic, and our intercession and decrees must line up with Your timing, Lord. Guide our intercession well. Form our decrees each day to hit the mark. Open our hearts to care about others like we never have before—for their spiritual, as well as their natural, physical and economic health. Open our hearts to care about our nation’s future in light of future generations coming behind us. We won’t be like King Hezekiah who only cared about the condition of his country in his own day! We bring our children and grandchildren into the place of destiny together with us! We will lay our hands on the doors of our homes and declare daily, “You give us victory, Jesus! My family and I trust You and are coming through well and whole!” Amen. Today’s decree: Let God’s true destiny for America now be formed and come forth!

Appealing to Heaven for Deliverance [Just this month, I was sent on a prayer journey by the Lord. Directions for it came from a couple of dreams that were sent to me. I feel like it’s time to tell you about the dreams and this journey. It will take a few days, so keep following here to get it all. It will tie right into what’s going on in the nation right now, which we didn’t know what was coming when the dreams were given. Here is the first piece.] Back in October of last year, I was sent two dreams. The first of them was relatively short. The brother that dreamed it said he dreamed that I called him. He’s a trusted prophet that God gives dreams to for me. He said that I called him in the dream and said, “Clear your schedule. Make plans to meet me at Valley Forge.” Well, you may not know that Valley Forge was the winter encampment of George Washington and the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, which really became the make or break point of the war. Our troops there were under-supplied and underfed. They didn’t have medicine. They didn’t have clothing. It was a brutal, brutal, brutal winter. If they made it, there was hope for the nation’s future. But frankly, it was doubtful that they would survive. Incidentally, there was actually a plague running through the nation then, just like the one we are dealing with today. That plague killed 2000 of them, and it was just a crucible time. It was really a season where they had to persevere to make it through. They needed God to come through and help them with funds and troops and training. It was a desperate time and place. So, Valley Forge was really the crossing over point. It was their passing over. It was the time they had to break through. George Washington no doubt had the Appeal to Heaven flag there. I say, “no doubt”, because he is the one that commissioned the Appeal to Heaven flag. It flew over the ships and over the war’s battlefields. Why wouldn’t the man who commissioned the flag have one there with him at Valley Forge? He would go out from his headquarters and pray at a stream about 100 yards away every day, calling out to God. He would ask for mercy, “Please, please give us food. Please help us through this time.” It was one of the holy places that marks the birthing of our nation. So in the dream, I said, “Clear your schedule. Make plans to meet me at Valley Forge.” The dreamer went on to say that in the dream I told him, “Bill had a dream.” In Bill’s dream he said there were angels on reserve at Valley Forge that must be called into active duty. Bill was the young man who gave me my first Appeal to Heaven flag and acquainted me with the story of the flag. So, I knew these dreams were about appealing to heaven. It was about prayers, about Washington, about the same thing re-birthing our nation that had birthed it initially. It had been birthed by a prayer movement of appealing to Him. I also knew this was to be literal. I needed to get a team and go there. It wasn’t just a symbolic thing. “When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.” (Psalm 34:17; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Humble yourself and kneel to pray today, even as George Washington did in his time of trouble. Identificationally repent for the sins of the nation. Tell God what He already knows about the ravages of the COVID-19 virus on the nation. Appeal to Him for deliverance of the nation from this virus. Ask Him to raise up a fresh wave of the Appeal to Heaven movement. We cannot stop praying now. We must press into Him for angelic assistance until we see the battle won. A prayer you can pray: God, thank You for the dreams You give Your people. They help us see that You care about our plight. They show You are trying to get Your Church to get in the gap and appeal to heaven for deliverance and salvation. This COVID-19 virus has killed thousands in America. We don’t want it to take any more lives. We are asking You to intervene. Forgive us our national sins. We have aborted millions of babies. We have trafficking millions of people. We have have exported pornography, and have forced the acceptance of homosexuality and other sexual perversions on the nations. God, forgive us. Now, we have this curse, this virus stealing our vulnerable from us. Lord, forgive us and deliver us. Let the shed blood of Jesus be enough. Raise up millions of intercessors to pray and cry out until we see the battle against this virus turn. We must be passionate, diligent, and serious about praying to see this eradicated. Hear us Lord. Act on our behalf, even as You moved to send angels into battle for Israel when Daniel prayed for his nation. Let this nation be free again, even as You answered George Washington’s prayers in that desperate hour in our nation’s history. We look to You, God. Deliver. Deliver in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: We cry out to God for deliverance from this plague! He will save our nation!
