The Return of His Glory to Washington, D.C. When the full Glory of God comes, He’s going to deal with His enemies. He is going to release His life to this nation and He’s going to shake Washington, D.C. He’s going to keep shaking Washington, D.C. He’s going to keep changing it. There is an outpouring of Holy Spirit coming to that city, coming to that Capitol, coming to that White House, coming to the courts of America. Watch and see if God doesn’t return His glory to that city! “This means that all of creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things will remain.” (Hebrews 12:27; NLT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Intercede for those that are aligned against our government and God’s purposes for America. God is dealing with them and it will increase through February 22, 2018. Intercede for those in Washington, D.C. across the political spectrum, that they would get ready for the shaking. Their alignment will be judged as for or against Him. Their political alignment won’t matter. Invite God’s Presence in the White House and executive offices and buildings, the Capitol and legislative office buildings, and in the courts across the land, starting with the Supreme Court. Cry “Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory!” Glory of God, infiltrate our nation’s governing bodies!” A prayer you can pray: Father, I stand in the gap for those who don’t understand what they are doing when they stand against You and Your principles and plans for America. Reveal Yourself to them and let them quickly repent. Shake everything in Washington, D.C., that can be shaken, merciful God. Leave nothing but Your plans and purposes. Pour Your Glory out in every government office, across all three branches of our government. Align them with Your purposes. Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory! Send Your Glory to our nation’s capital, then all across America. In Jesus’ name, amen. Today’s decree: I decree that anything shakable will be removed, so what is eternal and unshakable and planned by God, can be seen and built upon.

The Glory is Coming They put the ark in the “City of Wholeness” – Jerusalem. This said, “We’re complete now. We have His Presence. We’re healed now. We are at peace now. He’s back.” This event we’re holding on February 22nd, it’s about us going fully back through the door to destiny. That’s what my heart is for this gathering in Washington, D.C. We are going to get through the turmoil, through the “Ichabod” phase where the glory was lost, and through the complacency phase where nobody cares about the real Glory and Presence. We’re getting to the phase where the Body of Christ says, “I will not be satisfied until He is here among us!” “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: If you haven’t registered for The Turnaround, click here for registration information. Pray for The Turnaround and all who will be there. Pray that God will grace us with His Presence. Even if you can’t come, plan to set aside 2/22/18 as a day of fasting and prayer for God’s glory to be poured out on the Church, our government, and our nation. A prayer you can pray: Father, I would like to be able to meet together in the nation’s capital city on 2/22/18 with my brothers and sisters in Christ who have a heart for this nation. Our nation needs a turnaround and I think we’ll get it as we pray together on this day You ordained and prophetically spoke of through Chuck Pierce and Cindy Jacobs. This is a day You set in history for the United States. I will set aside time to intercede that day, even if I can’t be there. You are coming to America! Amen. Today’s decree: I will not be satisfied until He is here among us!

The Place of Feeling Satisfied Historians say that when David put the ark of the Covenant in the tent that he put it high enough on a table that he could crawl under it. They say that’s where David wrote many of the psalms. He could see the wings of the cherubim off the sides and he wrote songs like, “Keep me under the shadow of Your wings.” I tell you there is a movement coming in this nation that is not going to be satisfied with anything but His Presence. We are going to crawl up under the ark of His Presence just so we can be under the Glory, just to be there with Him. We’ll be satisfied! “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” (Psalm 91:4; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Is there a place of dissatisfaction or emptiness in your life? Tell the Lord about it. Ask God for His Glory to descend on that place of emptiness and make it full of Him. Pray for our President today. Ask God to fill every place that is lacking in him with God’s holy Presence. Intercede for President Trump to have a Presence-encounter with God. A prayer you can pray: Lord, there are places in my life that feel empty and devoid of Your Presence. Come and fill them up with You. Come and heal my soul-aches, loneliness, and longing. Do the same for President Trump. He has one of the hardest jobs on the earth, leading this great nation. None of us can imagine the pressure and stress of it. Wherever He needs You, will You meet Him there today. Show up and draw him to you. Let the White House be filled with Your glory! Show the world how You can work with a President to bring Your plans to pass in a nation, Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that President Trump will experience the fullness of God’s Presence and Glory at the White House.

Breaking the Rules David had the audacity to break all the religious rules of the time. You weren’t supposed to go in where the ark was and worship. It was supposed to be back in a Holy-of-Holies where only the High Priest could go once a year. You weren’t supposed to get that close to the Presence. But, David had such a revelation of God’s heart, that God wanted His Glory among the people, that God let him go ahead and break the rules under the old covenant. “You yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 2:5; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: God hates rote and form. He wants relationship. He will bust down walls to get to His people. Welcome this. Ask God for a greater revelation of God’s heart. Do a Bible study and let Him show you in His Word how He feels about you. Repent for following man’s religious rules. Decide to be obedient to Holy Spirit’s leading. Church leadership can decide how a service will be conducted, but outside the walls, follow Holy Spirit. A prayer you can pray: Father, I repent of allowing man’s religious rules define my relationship with You. I don’t have to wait until I’m in church to meet with You. I don’t need permission from church leaders to do what You’ve asked me to do on a daily basis outside the walls of the building. I want You and Your Presence, and I want to show You to others everywhere I go. I want to be a Glory-carrier, Jesus! The future of the Church and America are dependent on us breaking free of religious shackles that have kept us bound. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that God will let us break His rules to get to Him. He allows us to break religious rules, especially those put in place by well-meaning men. America is about to get free!

A Place of Wholeness When the ark got to Jerusalem, it brought a wholeness, a healing. David wanted it in Jerusalem. Jerusalem means “city of wholeness”.  It doesn’t just mean “peace”, it means “wholeness”. There is a completion that comes when the ark is there. David said, “My journey will not be complete, just because I’m on the throne of Israel. My journey will not be complete until there’s a tent set up next door and the ark of His Presence is there. I want to go over there on a daily basis and crawl under that ark and just sit there in His Presence. In fact, I’m going to have full-time worshippers and full-time instruments and the worship of YHWH around the ark is never going to stop.” “Sing, all you who remain faithful! Pour out your hearts to the Eternal with praise and melodies; let grateful music fill the air and bless His name. His wrath, you see, is fleeting, but His grace lasts a lifetime. The deepest pains may linger through the night, but joy greets the soul with the smile of morning.” (Psalm 30:4-5; VOICE) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Ask God to bring wholeness into your life. Tell Him where you know the lack is. Ask Him for a greater measure of His Presence, the ark, in your life. Let Him tell you where there is lack you are not aware of. Let His Presence wash over you, healing you. Worship Him. If you have an instrument, bring it out and use it for worship. If you write, write something praising Him. Tell someone what He has done – this is your testimony. By the many testimonies we express, He will draw our nation to Him. A prayer you can pray: Father, bring Your shalom, Your peace, Your wholeness, into my life. I am lacking (tell Him what you need here – finances, health, mental peace, etc.) I want a greater measure of Your Presence in my life. I must have more of you! Show me where You know I am lacking and provide the grace I need to receive wholeness in this area. Wash over me, Holy Spirit. I will worship You, in song, with instruments, with words, with my pen. I will tell others about the wonderful things You have done and are doing in my life! I will tell them how You heal as we invite Your Presence into our hearts. Heal my nation one heart at a time. In Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree the shalom, grace, peace, and wholeness of God, is being bestowed in this season on this nation, a Believer at a time.

He’s About to Wreck Us The remnant God has found is passionate. This remnant has shaken off religion. They’re saying, “We don’t care about all the trappings. We’re after a meeting with the Man.” He’s coming to this remnant. He will open this up to the rest of the Body of Christ. They’re going to get in on this Presence-move, as well. What we’re doing is preparing the way for Him to come to all. It’s not about us, but about Him. What’s coming is going to wreck denominations. It’s going to wreck leaders in places where He really hasn’t been welcome. He’s going to come in and they’re going to taste Him one time, just once. Once they taste and see how good He is and what He’s really all about – to meet a Person, not have a service – they will never be able to go back to the old way of doing things. “You have captured my heart, my sister, my bride. You have captured my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace.” (Song of Solomon; HCSB) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: If you don’t feel excited about His showing up and showing us His goodness, your heart has grown cold. Ask God what the pain is that needs healed, so you can welcome Him, as well. Shout, “We welcome You, Father! We welcome You, Jesus! We welcome You, Holy Spirit! We welcome You!” Intercede for your local church leadership. Pray that they will be open to the surprise move of the Holy Spirit and will not work to hinder Him. Pray that this sweeping move changes the Church forever and our nation forever. A prayer you can pray: Lord, as I read the words above, show me where my heart is – am I excited or fearful or longing or skeptical. If my heart is not exploding with longing and anticipation, show me why. I welcome You, Father! I welcome You, Jesus! I welcome You, Holy Spirit! I welcome You! Lord, make my church leadership ready for this move of grace. Let them fully recognize that it is You showing up. Don’t let them try to stop what You are doing or short-change You in any way. Flood us with You. Flood our churches and cities and this nation with Your holy Presence! Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that God is about to show up and wreck the Body of Christ. We will never be the same!

Parking the Ark Some of us understand the 90 days of Obed-Edom. We were privileged to host the Lord’s Presence and 90 days of worship in 2008 and we talked a lot about Obed-Edom. I think what God showed me more than anything through that season was that Obed-Edom’s household hosted His glory for 90 days before David and the rest of the people could get on board with what God was saying and doing. God didn’t want fanfare then and He doesn’t want it now. God’s looking for places He can park the ark! “Have the people of Israel build me a holy sanctuary so I can live among them.” (Exodus 25:8; NLT) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Worship Him and tell Him you want His Presence to abide where you are. You are the first place He wants to park His Presence. Pray that the Ekklesia will “get it” and desire His Presence all across America – in their homes and churches and other meeting places. Ask Him if He would like you to gather others together to seek Him together. Think outside the box. Your basement is good enough. The community center at your apartment complex is good enough. You place of business, if you own your own business, is good enough. How about a park or school classroom or other unusual space. A prayer you can pray: Lord, I want Your Presence here. I will worship You until Your Presence is tangible where I am! (Worship Him a while.) This can’t just stay with individuals, although we are to be the first place Your Presence is hosted. The Ekklesia who are seeking the ark must gather together with others and seek You, spreading Your Presence everywhere we go. If there is a place I can gather others for worship, show it to me. I am willing to think outside the church box and into the community. Come, Lord Jesus, to America! Come! Today’s decree: We will build You a holy sanctuary so You can live right where we are.

Veterans Day – A Day of Honor “The hero is the man dedicated to the creation and/or defense of reality-conforming, life-promoting values.” (Andrew Bernstein) “Better than honor and glory, and History’s iron pen, was the thought of duty done and the love of his fellow-men.” (Richard Watson Gilder) Our veterans are dear to Americans’ patriotic hearts. We acknowledge their sacrifices and those of their families in times of war. They have marched bravely to the battlefield and mostly won, sometimes lost, those battles. However, have you ever realized that these men and women create and defend life-promoting values? Of course, they do! They are fighting for our lives! Today, we celebrate their lives and express our love and gratitude to them! “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” (Romans 12:10; NIV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Thank the Lord for every veteran by name that you know. Pray for all veterans that God would bless them with health and wholeness. Pray that every need they have would be met in Christ Jesus. Intercede for the salvation of these veterans. Pray that the horrors they have seen on the battlefield will not cause them to push God away. Now, go out and do something loving and kind for a veteran today. A prayer you can pray: Father, I thank you for (name the veterans you know.) I pray that you would bless them with whole bodies and minds. They often suffer so greatly. Let them know they are loved by You, Lord. We ask that you would present Your Son to them in supernatural ways. Let Your love for them override the pain and mental anguish of battle. Show me how to bless veterans today, in Jesus’ name. Amen. Today’s decree: We honor those who fight for our freedom and our lives—our nation’s veterans!

Determining Your Preappointed Boundaries “The Apostle Paul stood up in front of a group of philosophers in a pagan city and preached this amazing message found in Acts 17:26, “God has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings so that they should seek the Lord…” You were chosen and appointed to live in a particular time and place; the boundaries of your nation were set from before the beginning of time in order that man might seek and find the Lord! Your attitude and in fact your involvement as an intercessor and Spirit-filled Christian in and toward the purposes of God in your nation is a major part of your own spiritual destiny and inheritance.”1 (Sid Roth) “God be merciful to us and bless us, and cause Your face to shine upon us, that Your way may be known on earth, and Your salvation among all nations. Let the peoples praise You, O God; Let all the peoples praise You. Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy! For You shall judge the people righteously, and govern the nations on earth.” (Psalm 67:1-4) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Pray Psalm 67:1-4. Thank the Lord that He has “preappointed your boundaries.” This means it is no accident that you live where you live. Thank Him for the city you live in, the state, the region (the part of America you identify with—Northeast, South, Eastern Seaboard, Midwest, West, Mountain States, Southwest, West Coast, Northwest, etc.) Thank Him that you have an assignment in that region. Ask Him what it is! Ask the Lord to connect you with others that pray in your city, state and region. Think beyond your local church. Do a little research and find a group you can join that is praying in the area of your assignment as you understand it from the Lord. You might get on their email list or find they have a conference call you can jump in on. Or, make you own and start building your prayer tribe. A prayer you can pray: Lord, as I pray Psalm 67:1-4, I praise You and thank You that You are the Judge over all and You govern the nations with righteousness! As Your child, I get to govern together with You by interceding together with others and setting the spiritual atmosphere over my city, state, region and nation. You have set the boundaries of that governance by positioning me in the place that I live. Help me to find those who are praying for my areas of influence, so that I can join them and we can together make a difference in our part of the nation. In Jesus’ name, amen! Today’s decree: My spiritual boundaries were preappointed by the Lord and I will accept the assignment given by Him to intercede for the area He has placed me in! 1 Sid Roth, “Effective Prayer For A Nation,” Sid Roth’s It’s Supernatural!, 2016. SidRoth.org, 2/28/2008. 8/1/16. (Reposted from Aug. 4, 2016)

The Great Unravelling “For a while now the Lord has been showing Jolene a progressive vision featuring a huge, tangled ball of string. The string represents the high-level entanglements and corruption of a few key leaders in Washington, D.C., involving abuse of power, high level intentional deception and even sex abuse. In short, betrayal. Jolene’s been praying over this vision for months. And for months she’s been saying that the string of these entanglements is too tightly wound up here to unwind it only from Washington, D.C. Instead, it has to be unwoven from the outer ends. The Lord showed her that’s a major reason why we are sent from D.C. to minister, including on the Glory Train journey. Some of this simply can’t be accomplished so close to the source. For instance, Hollywood and Washington, D.C. are way intertwined. What’s now happening there is also beginning to happen here. At the very same time, only maybe at a lesser magnitude. But it’s going to happen. Because last night the Lord clearly spoke to Jolene the phrase, ‘the Great Unravelling.’” (Jon Hamill)1 “Don’t get involved with the fruitless works of darkness; instead, expose them to the light of God. You see, it’s a disgrace to speak of their secrets (so don’t even talk about what they do when no one is looking).” (Ephesians 5:11-12; VOICE) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: The first place a Believer should go when a season of exposure of sin is happening is to the throne of grace, as fast as we can get there. Let the fear of the Lord fall on you and confess every place of darkness He shows you, so it does not publicly get exposed. Pray that everything God plans to expose now is exposed, especially in Hollywood, in the media, and in government. It is merciful and right. Intercede for those whom the devil is seeking to destroy with sin. Ask God for a great harvest of souls, so the enemy will not have them forever. Pray that the exposure of sin will result in a harvest, as those around the ones exposed see how the exposure affects their lives. Pray the fear of the Lord falls on them and they quickly repent. A prayer you can pray: Lord, I come boldly to the throne of grace and ask You to shine Your intense and holy light on my life and my heart. Put a guard on my mouth and thoughts. Keep my feet from stumbling into sin. Forgive me every iniquity. I can see this is a season of pulling the curtain back on sin, especially in Hollywood, in those in media, and in government arenas. I stand in the gap and ask that, though the darkness may need to be judged in the courts of the earth, the souls of those in the darkness would be saved. Let them encounter You. I ask the same for their family members, friends, and even the general public that has enamored them. Let them see what is happening and run to You for salvation before their own dark deeds are brought into the light. Thank you, merciful Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that the Great Unravelling will not be stopped until everything God plans to expose in this season is out in the light. 1 Learn more about Jon and Jolene here.

He’s looking for Pure-hearted Worshippers God is looking for only one thing and that is the heart. He’s really not into worship. Does that surprise you? God doesn’t seek worship. Nowhere in scripture does it say He does. It says He seeks worshippers. It’s not the song that excites Him, it’s the singer. He’d rather have a glance from a loving countenance than a song sung by the greatest singer in the world, if it did not come from the heart. He’s into heart issues. He is finding a people all across this nation that have come back to basics. They don’t care about the fluff. They are hungry for Him – pure-hearted worshippers. “But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.” (John 4:23; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Sit quietly before Him and ask Him what kind of worshipper you are. Let Him be honest with you. Don’t be afraid of what He’ll say. Repent, if you need to. Ask Him to give you the heart of a worshipper, not given to perfection or performance, not caring what others think, but simply adoring Him. Sing to Him a song from your heart without caring what it sounds like. Just sing Him a love song. Go and show Jesus to someone who needs to see Him today. In this manner, by pure-hearted worshippers, shall our nation shall be changed. A prayer you can pray: Father, I come before You today with my heart laid bare. Examine it, please. I want to be a worshipper, clean before You, clean and free to worship without hinderance or fear. Give me a clean heart. Remove performance and the fear of man from me. Accept my song of worship, coming from the new, clean heart You’re forming in me. Show me how to expand Your Kingdom by sharing this love with others around me. Help me to multiply myself into multitudes of new pure-hearted worshippers, Jesus. Amen. Today’s decree: I decree that the day of the pure-hearted worshippers has come to America and now the miracles will begin.

The Revealing of His Glory Touches All Flesh As His glory comes down and the Lord exalts Himself, He is going to bring down that which has opposed Him. We’re not to be alarmed at the feverish, resistance to what He is doing that is evident in this nation right now. The warfare is intense. The demons are manifesting, and they manifest in a lot of ways, including violence. Do not be discouraged! The Glory is returning! Those who have opposed Him will be dealt with and those who are welcoming Him in His way will be exalted. “And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” (Isaiah 40:5; ESV) Give Him 15 minutes in prayer: Know that God has a plan to reveal His Glory. Ask Him to see it and participate in it, rather than be one who resists it, politically or religiously. Tell Him you want Him, for with Him comes His glory. Pray for any you know who are resisting Him. They may be church attendees. They may be atheists or anything in between. Spiritually arrest those who oppose Christ, who are opposing His people and His plan. Call them to repentance and salvation. Worship Him. A prayer you can pray: God, You have always had a plan. You have protected Your plan and Your Name. You have always had a remnant. The ark even now is returning. The dance of David is even now taking place on the hillside outside of Jerusalem. The restoration of the Tabernacle of David is being accomplished even as we speak, and the ark of His Presence is about to manifest here and in the nations of the earth. You are going to show us manifestations of Your Glory in unique ways. Come, Lord, Jesus, come! Today’s decree: To the strongholds of darkness that have run the people of God and the prophets into caves, Baal and Jezebel, “He has dealt with you and He will deal with you. You will not silence the Elijahs and the Elishas, nor keep His Presence from our shores.”
