Christmas Day We find the second account of the birth of Jesus in Luke 1:26-56 and 2:1-40. These passages focus on God’s intimate relationship with mankind. Here we see the unfolding of God with us, our hope of glory. We see how carefully God fulfilled the law and the prophets, giving his people, the Jews, every opportunity to see that Jesus was their long-awaited Messiah. Yet, only a few would see. We see the scriptures fulfilled by the living Word of God, Jesus. We see the natural outflow of worship by all those who encountered Jesus – his mother, Mary, his cousin John (in the womb of his Aunt Elizabeth), Elizabeth, Zechariah, the shepherds, Joseph, and two elderly persons who ministered to the Lord day and night in the temple, Simeon and Anna. All of these ordinary people recognized the Christ child, because they had an intimate encounter with a living God, by their choice, or by His. Intimate friendship with God opens our eyes to God’s ways and includes us in His plans. Develop that relationship. Look for where Jesus is being revealed. Look for what God is doing in America. Respond to Him, our life-giver, our Savior, and the lover of our souls. Worship Him! Merry Christmas! “‘My eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.’” (Simeon; Luke 2:30-32; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Read Luke 1 and 2:1-40. Ask the Lord to draw you closer to Him. Decide to begin developing a closer walk with Him, even if you already feel close. Ask Him to show you how. Intercede for the Body of Christ to be drawn into a closer place of intimacy with Him. Pray this for your family members, pastors and other church leaders. Pray the same for your government leaders from the local level to the national level. Worship Him who is worthy of our worship! A prayer you can pray: Father, draw me closer to You. I think the most precious name You could give me would be to be called Your friend. I desire an intimate friendship with You. What a wonderful Christmas gift that would be. Jesus made it possible. That causes me to worship You! Make me hungry and thirsty for more of You as I read Luke 1 and 2:1-40. Let it be more than a Christmas story to me. Let the heart of it touch my heart. Let the interactions between each person recorded here cause me to long for more intimate conversations with You. I pray this for my pastors and other spiritual leadership, as well. Let those who govern me, long for this level of relationship with You, beginning with their moment of salvation, if they still need to meet You. Jesus, change this nation, as You make us a nation of Your friends. Amen. Today’s decree: The United States shall be a nation that seeks the Lord, worships Him, and makes Him known in the earth!

The Prophetic Saving of a People and a Nation – Matthew There are two accounts of the story of Christ’s birth recorded in the Word. One is in Matthew and the other in Luke. In Matthew, we find the story in chapter 1:18-25 and chapter 2. The focus here is on the virgin birth, the visitation of the Magi to the Christ child, and the attempt of Satan, working through Herod, to destroy God’s plan. How is it missed that this is a prophetic story start to finish? After nearly 400 years of silence, God started speaking. We see that God spoke to humans in dreams and via angelic hosts, to cause His plans to come to pass. He had to be very clear, and He had to trust that the the humans He was sharing His plans with would believe Him! This wasn’t exactly normal at the time. Joseph and Mary each had to do exactly what He told them to do, and quicky! He also prophetically outwitted Satan’s borrowing of Herod. He gave instructions in a dream to the Magi. They don’t appear to be His people, yet they were drawn into His plan and had to act on His revelation, as well. That’s a whole lot of trust in humanity, if you ask me. What was it about the things He said and the way He said them that caused them to participate in His plan to save humanity? Stop and think about that. “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:20b-21; NIV) “And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.” (Matthew 2:12; NIV) “When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. ‘Get up,’ he said, ‘take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.’” (Luke 2:13; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray for revelation, then read Matthew 1:18-25 and chapter 2, as if you have never read them before. Notice what God had to do to cause His plan to come to pass. What was He overcoming in the hearts of each character. How did He move around the government structure? In this prophetic season, ask God to open up the hearts of the whole Body of Christ to the prophetic gifts of God. Repent on behalf of the Church that we have been okay with many in Christ’s body not believing He still speaks to us in dreams, visions, and angelic visitations. Tell the Lord that you are open to being led prophetically to see the lost and our nation saved. Intercede for the lost in America. A prayer you can pray: Father, we are in a season where we are reminded that You speak to Your people in dreams and visions. You want us to “hear” what the Spirit is saying to the Church. As we read and ponder the story of Christmas in Matthew, show us how You worked prophetically to cause Your ultimate plan to come to pass. We repent for the Church thinking it is okay to not believe You can and do still speak to us this way. You are still speaking. You still give dreams and vision, warnings, and direction through dreams and visions. We welcome the ways You want to lead us, Father. We repent of deciding how we will communicate with You. May Your Church be a prophetically led Church that is grounded deeply in Your Word. Show us how to reach the lost. Show us how to save a nation. In Jesus’ glorious name, we pray, amen. Today’s decree: The whole Church will hear Him prophetically and this nation will be saved!

A Son is Given Jesus. Jesus. A Son. A Savior. A child. A sacrifice. Wholly God. Wholly man. Eternal One. Love incarnate. He was given for us. Us! We squirrelly, sin-filled, prideful ones, which He created and deeply loves. Will we ever understand this? Not fully on this side of heaven, I am sure. But, there it is. He created man, and in His deep love and commitment to us, determined that Satan would not be able to steal us eternally away from Him. Temporarily, maybe, but not eternally. Some of us would recognize the Son and His plan of salvation. When we do, Isaiah 9: 6-7 will become our heart cry together with His. We will declare it over our lives and over this nation. We will believe that He meant every word of it and we will not stop declaring it until we see the reality of it in the earth. “For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.” (Isaiah 9:6-7; NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Declare Isaiah 6-7 as your statement of faith. Declare it again over America. Declare it over the harvest fields of the U.S.A. Declare it over the harvest fields of the earth. Call for the sons of Israel to see their Messiah this Christmas season. A prayer you can pray: (Follow the instructions above and may God hear our prayers.) Today’s decree: May the United States and Israel experience the increase of Christ’s government and peace, and may there be no end!

Christmas – A Day of Hope and Rejoicing The celebration of the birth of Christ didn’t begin at His birth. It was long foretold by the prophets and recorded in the holy scriptures. God always had a plan of redemption and at the right time, He initiated it. He set forth the plan of salvation to give man an opportunity to be restored to relationship with Him—forever. This is not something to be treated casually or a day to be celebrated without deep contemplation and worship. It may not be the actual day of Christ’s birth, but it is a touchpoint to adore Him. Read these words of the popular Christmas song, “O Holy Night”. “O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining. It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth! Long lay the world in sin and error pining till He appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope. The weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.” These lyrics are taken from Isaiah 9, one of the great prophetic passages about the coming Messiah. Take hope in them and rejoice! “The land of the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali were once disgraced, but the future will bring honor to this region, from the Mediterranean eastward to the land on the other side of the Jordan, and even to Galilee itself, where the foreigners live. The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. They lived in a land of shadows, but now light is shining on them. You have given them great joy, Lord; you have made them happy. They rejoice in what you have done, as people rejoice when they harvest grain or when they divide captured wealth. For you have broken the yoke that burdened them and the rod that beat their shoulders.” (Isaiah 9: 1-4a; GNT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Lift your eyes and your heart up from the work and busyness of Christmas and place them on Jesus. Sit still for a moment. Maybe get a cup of coffee or cocoa and the Word and take a quiet, reflective moment. You can spare it for Him. Play or sing “O Holy Night” and worship our Savior, Jesus. Consider other Christmas hymns that focus on Christ and go ahead and play or sing them, as well. Pray for your loved ones. Lift their need for Him to the Lord. Pray that their yokes of bondage would be broken off as they see Jesus. Pray for America to know Him. Say, “In this land of darkness and shadows, Lord, let us see Your great Light!” A prayer you can pray: Lord, I desire to set aside some time today to adore the Son. Jesus has saved me and I am so focused on all the things I have to do and want to do to make others happy, that it is easy to miss the main star of the season, my Savior, Jesus. Your Word is a road-map to Your plan of salvation. Your prophets foretold His coming as a child to save us. Even His birth was to be a time of yoke-breaking and darkness fleeing. I will get out my Bible and meditate on Isaiah 9. (Play or sing “O Holy Night” and worship our Savior, Jesus. Consider other Christmas hymns that focus on Christ and go ahead and play or sing them, as well.) Jesus, let my loved ones see You. Holy Spirit, draw them to Jesus. Let my heritage be children and grandchildren that serve the Lord. Save them, heal them, and deliver them, and make sure they know it was You that did these things for them. Open the eyes of my nation, Jesus. Shine Your light in every corner where darkness threatens America. Break the yokes of poverty and other causes of heart-ache. Raise up and send healers into this nation—those who have God-given blueprints to heal this broken land. Amen. Today’s decree: In this land of darkness and shadows, Lord, let us see Your great Light!

Remembering the Past “Looking back over your life, I am sure you have some precious memories of people, experiences, and places which greatly impacted you. Perhaps reading or hearing stories about your forefathers’ adventures stirs a new appreciation for where you are now. The Israelites were asked to remember their history. Their past was celebrated and recounted to successive generations. Memories connect our past with our present, joining yesterday with today and the future.1 When recalling a few happy memories, I am always mindful of God’s faithfulness in helping me fulfill my destiny. That’s why I take opportunities from time to time, especially at the holidays, to recount to my grandchildren some of my special childhood memories—so they can pass them on to the next generation. I wonder what wonders my descendants will experience.2 (Quin Sherrer)3 “Then those who feared the Lord spoke with one another. The Lord paid attention and heard them, and a book of remembrance was written before him of those who feared the Lord and esteemed his name.” (Malachi 3:16; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: It is often at Christmas that our hearts drift to memories filled with family and dear friends. Consider your favorite Christmas memory. Intercede for those still living who may have been a part of that precious time. Call to mind a challenging holiday season. What were things you may have learned about the Lord through that hard time? Write those lessons down and worship Him! Pray for others that may be having a hard time this Christmas. If you can practically meet their need, this would be a good time to do so. Let the next generation join you, if possible and recount your story along the way. Make an effort to share your story with a younger member of your family, passing on your love of and commitment to Christ. A prayer you can pray: Lord, at this Christmas season, my heart often drifts to memories of Christmases past. Some of those memories are rich with joy and some are painful. I pray that all bring to remembrance ways You were involved – stories I can pass along to the generations behind me. I want to tell them of Your goodness, Your faithfulness, and Your love. Where the memories are warm, I pray for those that are still living who were a part of the joy. Bless them and draw them close to You. Where the memories are painful, I worship You, for You have brought me through. God, You are so good to me! Be good to my children and grandchildren, my close friends and those connected to my life in some way. May the richest blessings of Christmas come to each and every one, in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: I will tell of Your wondrous deeds to my children and grandchildren, creating an altar of remembrance in my family line! 1 Sherrer, Quin, Cast Your Shadow: Influence on Purpose.

Our Testimony of Christ With Us “Unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Child is given: And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6; NKJV) “Can you picture yourself in the first Christmas story? Maybe one character captures your attention most. Reviewing it we see: Mary heard the angel Gabriel, believed and submitted to God’s call on her life. Elizabeth recognized Jesus even in Mary’s womb, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and was a probable mentor to Mary who lived in her home for the three months before Jesus was born. Joseph dreamed and, being warned by an angel, obeyed. An innkeeper had no room for the expectant couple, but he offered what he had– a stable with a manger. Shepherds heard the Lord’s angel speak of the good tidings of great joy. They left their work to go find this child, and afterwards went to tell others who marveled in amazement, as well. Anna, a praying elderly widow, saw a promise fulfilled, praised God, and proclaimed the Messiah’s birth. Simeon, waited expectantly to see the Lord’s Christ. Finally, when he saw him in the temple with his parents, he blessed the baby and prophesied about his future. Wisemen, followed a star, worshiped the Savior, and gave him extravagant gifts. People in the Christmas drama give us glorious examples. God can speak through a dream, an angel, a wiseman, a praying widow, a devoted-husband-to-be, a prophet, or even an ordinary person watching the flock at home or office, going about business as usual. For nothing is impossible with God. He can visit us in unexpected ways on unexpected days. Are we listening? Will we obey? Are we willing to go tell others what he has done for us? For them? Are we willing to tell of his great love?” (Quin Sherrer)1 Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Read the Christmas story in the book of Luke, Chapter 2. (Read it with your family, if possible.) Consider the characters in the Christmas story. Is there one you relate to? Talk with Jesus about this. Understand why. Intercede for your family members, asking the Lord to visit each one in a very tangible way this Christmas. Especially pray for those not yet saved in your family line. Answer these questions: “Am I positioning myself to listen to the Lord? Will I obey? Am I willing to go tell others what he has done for me? For them? Am I willing to tell of his great love?” A prayer you can pray: Father, speak to me by Your Holy Spirit, as I read about the birth of Jesus in Luke, Chapter 2. Show me how You revealed Jesus to each one and speak to my heart about how You speak to me about Him. Formulate my Christmas testimony, in part, by how I relate to that character. Help me to share You with others as I meet with them this Christmas. Whether or not I see them, I intercede for each of my family members. I so want each one of them to know You, Jesus. I know You brought each into my life, so I make make You known to them in some way. Am I positioning myself to listen to You? Will I obey? Show me how to tell others what You have done for me. Help me to show others what I see You doing to reveal Your Son to them. Am I willing to tell of Your great love or am I still hesitant? Make me bold, in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: I will tell my testimony to the world. Nothing is impossible with God! 1 Quin Sherrer is the co-author of A Woman’s Guide to Spiritual Warfare and 29 other books, which are available on Amazon.

Christ In Us, the Hope of Glory “Christmas week over four decades ago, I made my first trip to Israel. Airport security was extremely tight because of recent wars. After visiting many Biblical sites we were finally at the Garden Tomb for a sunrise worship service. This tomb is similar to, or perhaps the actual place, where Jesus was laid after his crucifixion. When the pastor began his sermon, he reminded us of the strenuous search we’d undergone to get here. But he assured us we had smuggled something into the country which was not in the museums or historical sites. ‘You smuggled something into Jerusalem which no one could take from you. Christ in you the hope of glory,’ he said, quoting from Colossians 1:27. Christ in you. Christ in me. That is part of our Christmas story. It is the reason why you and I can and must share the story of our Savior’s birth. Christ living in us by His Holy Spirit –equipping and empowering us to share his marvelous salvation message.” (Quin Sherrer)1 “I (Paul) became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God, the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.” (Colossians 1:25-27; NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray for Israel and the Jews. From Genesis to Malachi all signs point to Jesus Christ as Messiah, but this is missed by them. Ask God to reveal this Truth this Christmas! Rejoice that Christ is in you! Ask God to make Himself seen through you this Christmas. Let your life be His testimony. Ask the Lord to give you opportunities over the next week to share Jesus with at least one person. This is the best Christmas gift they could ever receive, and the reason why He came—eternal life through Jesus Christ, our Lord! A prayer you can pray: Father, bless Israel today. Send Your Holy Spirit to reveal to the Jews their Messiah, our Lord and Savior, Jesus. As they open and read the Torah, let revelation open their eyes, so they might see. Let them break free of every religious spirit and stronghold of pride, so they might embrace the Son. I don’t know how they can’t see Him in the Old Testament, but Your timing of their salvation will be perfect, even as it was on my own life! I am so grateful that You did not leave me in my sin, but drew me to the cross. I praise You and ask You to make me an instrument of peace and grace, showing the way to Jesus. I believe Israel and the United States are spiritually linked. I believe these nations can be saved in a day, if others, like myself, will share Jesus with those who are not yet saved. May Christ be revealed in us, the hope of Your glory. Let this be the best Christmas ever! In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: This Christmas, let Israel and America see Jesus, the Hope of Glory, in those of us who know You! 1 Quin Sherrer is the co-author of A Woman’s Guide to Spiritual Warfare and 29 other books, which are available on Amazon.

Unraveling the Confederacy “It is time to seek the Lord more than ever before. Say, ‘Okay, Lord, how do we do that?’ Gather together and ask the Lord what to do. He is calling forth remnants in every city. They will assemble for a decree. There are more times of assembling. This is the inheritance we have warred for. Why would you let this confederation come and take what we have warred for? There are demonic confederacies aligning to take away what we have warred for. He is going to show us how to tear those alignments apart. God told Israel to go stand at a particular place and worship. He will orchestrate the place. I hear Him saying, ‘When you stand and worship, I’ll send what is necessary to produce the confusion that will bring My order.’” (Chuck Pierce)1 “Give thanks to the Lord because he is good, because his mercy endures forever. Give thanks to the only one who does miraculous things—because his mercy endures forever. Give thanks to the God of heaven, because his mercy endures forever.” (Psalm 136: 1,4, and 26; GWT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: A confederacy is an alliance formed for an illegal or illicit purpose. The word “illegal” denotes a violation of civil laws. “Illicit” means to violate customs or moral laws. Hmmm. Stop and think about that in light of the enemy’s plans against you, the territory the Lord has given you to war for, and this nation. Ask the Lord, “Okay, Lord, how do we do properly seek You right now?” Hear Him and plan to comply. Let Him ask you, “Why would you let this confederation come and take what you have warred for?” Don’t try to justify yourself. The answer is, “Lord, You know.” Let Him reveal your heart to you. Repent and commit to act. Ask Him to show you the particular place where you are to go to stand and worship. This may be with a group. Go exactly when and where He says to go. Read the entirety of Psalm 136 out loud. A prayer you can pray: Lord, give me a solid revelation on what the prophet is saying, as I ponder the words “confederacy”, “illegal” and “illicit” in light of the enemy’s activities against what You have called the Church to accomplish locally and for this nation. How do I seek You right now, in light of this? Speak clearly to me, Holy Spirit. I welcome You asking me why I would allow a demonic confederation to come and take what I have been warring for. I really don’t know, but You do. Forgive me any place of complacency, fear, or doubt and unbelief. Make clear the activities You want me to perform. Show me exactly where to go and stand and worship You, together with others in the Body of Christ. Who should come? Who should stay behind? Where is the critical point of breakthrough? (Read Psalm 136 in its entirety out loud.) In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen. Today’s decree: The mercy of the Lord endures forever! 1 Learn more about Chuck Pierce here.

The Seriousness of Proper Alignment “We are about to see serious re-alignments. We will see racial realignment, especially in major cities. We will see other major realignments in cities. We will see more change in the next few years than we have ever seen. We will see great shaking in cities, states and nations. We must decree that nations are now in their realignment season of choice. You may have to do strange things to redeem your bloodline. God has begun to redeem this nation and things look messy and confusing. Wherever we have influence over another nation, we must call them into realignment, even if they don’t politically agree, because harvest is rising up. They must be aligned with God’s desire and not political spirits. Things won’t look like we think they should. They will look the way God has planned for them to look. For example, Iran is going to enter into harvest. Get ready to see what God is going to do. Discern rightly. God is visiting us with a message because He wants us to understand we are in a new era. Multitudes, multitudes are in the valley of decision.” (Chuck Pierce)1 “O Lord God of our ancestors, you are the God who lives in heaven and rules over all the kingdoms of the nations. You possess strength and power; no one can stand against you.” (2 Chronicles 20:6; NET) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Read all of 2 Chronicles 20. This is the story of Jehosaphat. Do not think you know it. Ask God for new eyes to see what you need to see in light of this current time in history. Affirm your first alignment, which is with God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Affirm your commitment to align with Israel, as God’s plans are centered there. Commit to watch for God’s purposes coming to pass in the earth, even if they surprise or even shock you! Break any political alignments you have, as political thinking affects our prayers. Repent of being “party-line.” Start looking at the party platforms, sift and sort, and line up with the Word of God. Do that for the nation, as well. Call political alignments of the United States to line up with God’s desire, only—those that will facilitate the release the harvest in the nations of the earth. A prayer you can pray: God, open my eyes to see what You want me to see as I read 2 Chronicles 20. Open my eyes to see it as if for the very first time. Show me where we are on heaven’s timeline. I affirm my covenant with You, Jesus. I affirm my commitment to stay aligned in my heart with Your heart for Israel. I will watch the world stage as it relates to that nation and the people that You love. I don’t want to be caught unaware as Your plans come to pass. Straighten out the way I think politically. Break me free of party-line thinking where it does not line up with Your Word. The body of Christ is so divided along political lines, when there is right and wrong on both sides of the aisle. I want to be aligned with You and Your Word. I call for this nation’s political alignments to be made carefully and exactly as You want them, so America can fulfill its destiny of taking the Gospel from our shores to the harvest fields across the world, Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: We call America into perfect alignment with God’s eternal plans! We want to help facilitate the harvest of the earth being loosed! 1 Learn more about Chuck Pierce here.

Call Your State to Align With the Lord “We are battling confederations of demonic structures. Not just strongholds. Strongholds have aligned together to form a cord of resistance. We must define these confederations. God has shown me states in alignment with God and states not in alignment. In 2008, He showed me what it would take to cause alignments to happen. He showed me strongholds from state to state. I asked Him how this nation would change. He said the nation must learn to play the Trump card. I come from a long line of card players. So, I realized the change that would have to come to bring us back. He gave me a timing. He caught me into the future and showed me what was ahead. He showed me 2016 and 2019 from 2008. In Luke 13, Jesus tells a parable. He says that a certain man had a fig tree that bore no fruit. He told his vineyard keeper to cut it down. However, the keeper asked if he could let it alone for just one more year, while he would dig around it and fertilize it. If it still didn’t bear fruit, then it would be okay to cut it down. God had told me there would be a 3-year period of time coming after the Trump card was played where covenant would be reset worldwide using this nation. He is leaving things alone for this three-year period, to see if there is any fruit produced. He is using this nation as the catalyst, because it has been the strongest covenant nation in the world. The key was what happened when America aligned with Israel and Jerusalem. President Trump promising to move the U. S. Embassy to Jerusalem. Then, he made good on that promise in 2018. You want to be at the right place at the right time.” (Chuck Pierce)1 “Then he told this parable: ‘A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard, and he went to look for fruit on it but did not find any. So he said to the man who took care of the vineyard, “For three years now I’ve been coming to look for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?” “Sir,” the man replied, “leave it alone for one more year, and I’ll dig around it and fertilize it. If it bears fruit next year, fine! If not, then cut it down.”’” (Luke 13:6-9; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Prophetic things are spiritually discerned. Ask God to give you His eyes to see and ears to ear what His Spirit is saying to the Church. If you have broken covenants in your life or your bloodlines, repent, if need be, and ask God to heal those rifts. Now, you can intercede with authority. Note where we are on heaven’s timeline from what the prophet shared. Intercede for America and President Trump. Pray that he will continue to receive godly counsel and move this nation into God-alignments. Pray the U.S. would continue to be used by God to fulfill His purposes in the earth. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and continued covenant between the United States and Israel. A prayer you can pray: God, this prophetic Word is sobering. I repent for any covenant breaking in my life and in my family lineage. Forgive us, Lord, for we really did not understand the eternal significance of covenant-breaking. We pray the same for our state’s attitude and alignment for or against President Trump. He represents our nation and is to be honored and respected for that office, as You put him there. We also do not want to be in a state that is not blessed by You, because it is not aligned with Israel. We are so thankful for President Trump aligning the U.S. with Israel by putting our Embassy in Jerusalem. Our national soil is mixed with that of Israel in the right place. Let us never be like the fig tree, unresponsive to its maker, its keeper and its Lord. Let us maintain this alignment with You and Your covenant purposes for this country! So shall we be blessed and bless the nations of the earth. In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: Let the states and the nation be aligned with Israel for His plans and purposes and blessings to come to America! 1 Learn more about Chuck Pierce here.

Border Wars and New Resources “This new day and new era is breaking forth. There are state to state border wars happening. The borders of states are going into warfare with each other. This is not about the southern border of the United States with Mexico. There are borders that do not want the inheritance of God. So, a whole new move of God has to come into our state movements. It is naive to think that everybody is going to work together. They’re not. Things have to get more and more aligned or they will be more separated. You can’t see the new unity and the new remnants, if the separation doesn’t occur. You will look and see the nation differently than you have before. God gave us this land and will judge us according to our stewardship of this land. He will judge how we multiply the resources of this land. You must multiply resources and find new resources, and we must bring down the sound of heaven to uncover the resources. There are a lot of new resources coming.” (Chuck Pierce)1 “God, don’t remain silent. Don’t refuse to listen. Do something, God. See how your enemies are growling like dogs. See how they are rising up against you. They make clever plans against your people. They make evil plans against those you love. ‘Come,’ they say. ‘Let’s destroy that whole nation.’ May you, the Lord, let your enemies know who you are. You alone are the Most High God over the whole earth.” (Psalm 83:1-4 and 18.; NIRV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Look carefully at your state’s connections with connected states. Ask the Lord if there is any potential conflict at the borders. Do resources cross the borders? Water often does. Note these. Ask God to show you where there is unity and where their is or will be conflict. If you can’t see this clearly, command darkness to get in the light, so the division can be seen. Then you will know how to pray and where to align. Intercede for all of your state’s borders, including where the borders are with the oceans and lakes. Bless the borders and bless the connected states, even if you see problems ahead. Consider connecting with others to go and pray and worship over your state’s borders. Call for the new resources to be uncovered and manifested. Have no expectation of what they are. Pay attention to this and receive the blessing of it in your state. A prayer you can pray: Father, open my eyes to see my state’s borders. Show me any vulnerabilities and potential conflicts with other states. Show me where there is unity between connected states and nations, and where spiritual work needs done. Separate light from darkness, so the praying church can see where the alignments can come and where division is. Darkness, get in the light! I bless the borders of my state. I bless the connected states and nations. I trust You, Lord, to work all things together for good between them. I call forth new resources in my state – natural resources, movement of people causing economic increase, and man-made new resources that will bless my state. Uncover, reveal, and release them, in Jesus’ name. Show the Body of Christ how to prosper in the revealing of these new resources. Amen. Today’s decree: Let the spiritual border wars begin! Let the new resources begin to be revealed! 1 Learn more about Chuck Pierce here.

It is Time to See! “God wept over Lazarus, because His people had still not broken through into the faith they needed for the future. He thought, ‘You have been with me all this time and you still know nothing.’ But then He demonstrated. And then they believed. There is power in the visitation of the Lord. Think of Mary. Think about His visitation to Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist, where He shut his mouth for nine months. There’s a new watchman call. Whenever there is a key place of alignment, there is a new watchman call. Be careful with the political and religious spirits, especially when they align. They sometimes work together to stop the move of God. But, right now, they are working together to move God’s plan forward. This alignment can drive the prayer movement forward. However, we are not sure what we are watching for. It’s just like when the church was praying for Peter to get set free from jail. God set Him free in response to their prayers, but those praying did not know what they were looking for. So, when Peter showed up at the door, they shut the door in his face, not believing it could really be Peter! Without revelation from the Holy Spirit, we don’t know what’s real or not real. God wants us to see! We need to see the Kingdom being expressed. It is time!” (Chuck Pierce)1 “Jesus said to her, ‘Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?’” (John 11:40; NKJV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Demonstrations of the power and Glory of God are coming. Deal with your doubt and unbelief and become expectant! Read John 11, Luke 1, and Acts 12. Note the contrast between lack of faith in the people, even the praying Church, and the persistence of the Lord to work in their midst. Let faith arise in you. Consider the alignment of the religious and political spirits. Note how they can block the move of God. Consider in the Word of God how God uses that alignment to move His purposes forward. Intercede for the current alignment of those spirits in America’s governmental arena. SEE what God is doing! A prayer you can pray: Lord, throughout time, You overcame doubt and unbelief in Your followers with demonstrations of Your power. Forgive me of my own doubt and unbelief. Let me read again John 11, Luke 1, and Acts 12. Show me how You worked despite the active unbelief displayed in the people. What do you want me to see there that will increase faith in myself and in Your Church? Show me how demonic alignments of religious and political spirits work against Your purposes. Show me how You flip the tables over on them and use their tactics to accomplish Your will. Nothing stops You! Nothing! Jesus, let me see this and never forget it! Amen. Today’s decree: The Church is about to see what God is doing in America and will pray and act accordingly! 1 Learn more about Chuck Pierce here.
