PRAY   CENTRAL   FLORIDA

 

Dear Fellow Prayer Warrior,                                                                           July, 2007

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. If you missed “The Call” you can see a replay of it in the video on demand section on www.God.tv. There was a strong anointing on that meeting and, I believe, some breakthroughs in the Spirit. Promise Keepers returns to the Amway Arena this month, see “Current Prayer Events” for details.

 

Prayer Training at the Worship House of Prayer starts August 11th

[Taken from a Worship House of Prayer e-mail]

August begins our prayer training for everyone who desires to lead a WHOP prayer watch as a prayer leader or worship leader, or be on a WHOP worship team.  The training is also for all church leaders, worship teams, anyone already involved in WHOP. The training is one Saturday per month August through November.  We will meet together for a total of four Saturdays (one per month), teaching and activating your prayer gifts each Saturday.  The first training Saturday will be August 11, 9:15am-5pm. For details and to register go to www.worshiphouseofprayer.com and click on “training”.                    [If you are not familiar with this fine group of people, here is their vision statement from their web site.] We invite you into the journey of uncovering and fueling your God-created longing for Jesus--your Bridegroom, King and Judge.  We embrace Psalm 27:4 as our passion... why we do what we do...  One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in His temple. Worship House of Prayer Missions Base VISION:  to establish a central Florida missions base in a community setting-- a hub for 24/7 corporate worship and prayer, an equipping center for the end-time harvest, healing teams/rooms, mercy and justice missions, and outreaches.  We see the prayer room as the heart of the missions base, providing the power for the base to function.  The equipping center will send people into the prayer room as well as into the harvest fields.

(1) One combined July cityreaching conference call – July 19th

 

From: "Newsletters @ CityReaching.com" <fhcadmin@eli.faithhighway.com>

To: praycf@juno.com

Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 16:29:15 -0500

Subject: Cityreaching: One combined July cityreaching conference call

 

On July 19th, the third Thursday cityreaching call will combine with the Featured City call. Glenn Barth and Dennis Fuqua will co-host on the topic: Pastors on the Premises, sharing the impact of pastors prayerwalking schools in San Bernardino, CA.

Pastor Joshua Beckley of Ecclesia Christian Fellowship in San Bernardino, CA will be our guest. Email info@cityreaching.com for the dial-in #. The 1-hour call begins at 11 a.m. Eastern time.

 

______________________

 

More about Pastors on the Premises

 

Dennis Fuqua (from the Featured City last Tuesday call) asks: What would cause 15 public school principals to ask pastors to come and prayer walk their school? And why would the superintendent of schools list "Pastors on the Premises" as one of the activities that is increasing safety, decreasing gang activity and nearly eliminating the drop-out rate? You will be able to hear the answers to these questions and also interact with the people behind the story.

Glenn Barth, host of the “third Thursday call” writes:  Pastor Joshua Beckley of Ecclesia Christian Fellowship in San Bernardino, CA will be our guest for the July 19, 2007 Mission America Cityreaching Resources Conference Call 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. You are invited. Pastor Josh and other San Bernardino pastors lead a ministry called “Pastors on the Premises,” which has been effective in s! ubstantially lowering the drop out rate and addressing issues of drug and gang related violence in schools throughout San Bernardino County.

Jarvis Ward and I visited with Josh and other San Bernardino Pastors and ministry leaders in January of 1996. Their unified impact was felt in the local schools. Beginning with Cajon High School, where there was a dropout rate of 70% in 2002, pastors approached the principal with a plan. Before and after school, they would prayer walk the campus. The principal welcomed them on the campus. Through their presence and prayers, they got to know the students and their needs. As they prayed on the campus, they found students who wanted prayer. As they discovered the needs of students through these requests, in addition to praying, they connected students with tutors and other services to address their needs. The result was that in 2003 the dropout rate fell to 20%; in 2004 the dropout rate fell to 10%; this scho! ol year, there have been no appreciable number of dropouts.
As other principals in the area heard about the success of this effort, they too, asked for pastors to prayer walk their campuses. Today, fifteen Junior and Senior High School campuses in San Bernardino have pastors prayer walking the halls and grounds and reporting impressive improvements as a result. A waiting list of schools has developed as invitations have outstripped the ability of these pastors to cover all the campuses. The Superintendent of Schools for the county lists Pastors on The Premises as one of several organizations they rely on for school safety and student advancement listing them on the Schools System’s website as a key resource ( http://www.sbcss.k12.ca.us/communications/comm_newsSM.php?id=218).

(4) Book Report: THE LORD OF THE RING

 

Book Report: THE LORD OF THE RING - Anderson, Philip

Originally published in England in 2006, it has just been released in a U.S. edition.

Pete Grieg's seemingly chance visit to Herrnhut, Germany, in 1999 has grown into lasting inspiration for the international movement of 24/7 prayer. Five years later, Phil Anderson and Justin Blake piloted a small plane across Europe to Herrnhut. Their remarkable journey has resulted in this wonderfully engaging new biography of Count Zinzendorf and the covenant community of believers at Herrnhut. From original sources they reveal more of the history of Zinzendorf; the Order of the Mustard Seed; the 24-hour prayer watch in Herrnhut, which continued non-stop for 100 years; and the incredible Moravian missionary movement that was launched and has had an impact on global outreach to this day! Young believers around you are again wearing "the ring." "Having been to Herrnhut and always 'wanting to know more,' I cannot recommend this book more highly." (Gary Bergel) Originally published in England in 2006, it has just been released in a U.S. edition. Paperback, 224 pages.

PRESIDENT BUSH, ISRAEL'S OLMERT EXPRESS
SUPPORT FOR TWO-STATE SOLUTION


U.S. Department of State Press Release - The United States and Israel support the creation of a Palestinian state that would live side by side in peace with Israel, President Bush says. Prime Minister Olmert pledged to initiate a new round of regular direct talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas aimed at security issues and improving the delivery of essential services to the Palestinian people as a precursor to new progress toward the "two- state solution" long advocated by the Bush administration. "This is the ultimate goal, to create a Palestinian state," Olmert said. "We have to prepare the groundwork that will allow - - soon, I hope -- to be able to start serious negotiations about the creation of a Palestinian state." (U.S. Department of State, 6/19/07)

June 24, 2002 will be the fifth anniversary of the President's address articulating America's position on Palestinian rights and obligations, terrorism, and peace. It was during that speech in the Rose Garden that Mr. Bush aligned American policy with the goal of a Palestinian state.

Pray that the Lord would frustrate, disrupt and turn away all attempts made by the Bush Administration or the U.S. State Department to advance plans to create a "Palestinian State" using land promised to the people of Israel, the inheritors of God's promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

LET US STAND IN REPENTACE AND CRY OUT FOR MERCY as President Bush's position and declarations to further "divide up of the land" stands in stark opposition to the Word of God. Scripture shows severe dealings and judgment for nations who "divide up the land" of Israel. (Joel 3:2) Pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6) and for it to remain Israel's undivided capital.

(6) Alice Smith – Generational Iniquity

 

From: Alice and Eddie Smith <usprayercenter@cs.com>

To: praycf@juno.com

Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2007 02:07:06 -0400

Subject: Insight:  from Eddie and Alice Smith

 

Generational Iniquity

By Alice Smith

 
From one physical trait of an ancestor, an entire family line can be born with the same trait, like a dimple in the chin, or almond shaped eyes, or receding hairlines. This is true in the physical realm, and in the spiritual. Just as we receive the physical DNA of our family, we can experience the spiritual DNA of our family. Both righteousness and iniquity pass from generation to generation.


 Generational iniquity can be defined as an unholy spiritual influence, an open door or tendency in a family's lineage to accept as normal something that controls the behavior of many in the family. The Scripture is full of instances.

In Scripture there are two basic root words for "iniquity." One of the Hebrew words describing iniquity is "avon" which describes the crooked and perverse attitudes that emanate from the father to the children. The idea is expressed in the old adage, "As the twig is bent, so grows the tree." We each have a propensity to sin in specific areas where our forefathers had given ample room to the devil.

 

The question you may be asking is, what about Jesus coming to save us from our sin? Christ saved us from the curse of the law. Jesus removed the curse of having to fulfill the law by his death and resurrection. Gal. 3:13 says, "Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us." The curse of not measuring up to the perfect mirror of the law has been removed from us, but not the consequences of our sin. Even Paul reminded us, "Stand fast therefore in the liberty, wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage" (Gal. 5:1).

 

The iniquity of our forefathers may still be at work in us unless we take personal responsibility to stop it. Paul exhorts us, "I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness" (Romans 6:19 KJV). We are given the choice to walk in righteousness or to yield to the bent of our forefather?s tendencies to sin.

 

In John 9, Jesus and his disciples passed a blind man. The disciples asked Jesus, "who has sinned, this man or his parents that he was born blind." Jesus didn't reply, "What a foolish question." No. He said, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life" (v.3). In this case the iniquity of the man?s father was not the reason for his blindness. The implication is that some situations are a result of the generational iniquity. The umbilical cord of iniquity must be cut. You have the right of sonship to cut the line of generational iniquity from you and your family.

 

Not too long ago we were watching a news program where a 27-year-old young lady interviewed had breast cancer. The tearful young woman explained that her grandmother, mother and older sister had died from breast cancer.

 

The devil never plays fair. The cancer that began with a grandmother or even further back is now taking its victims younger and younger. So many of our maladies today were unheard of 20 years ago. Turrets Syndrome, cancer in babies, AIDS, multiple-personality disorders. Sins of the past are tumbling down on our heads and the Lord is looking for someone in our family lines to announce "enough!" and to break these contracts with darkness. Will you be that person for your family?

 

Breaking generational contracts need not be mystical, but we should not begin this process without a deep burden and urgency on behalf of family and ourselves. To do otherwise is nothing more than superstitious activity. Wait for the Lord to give you his burden, and then proceed. When you are ready, this is what you do.

 

1. ASK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO COME AND HELP YOU. Spend time in personal repentance, and then sit still to allow the Spirit of God to reveal issues that need to be dealt with. (1 John 1:6-10)


1. IDENTIFY THE GENERATIONAL INIQUITY AND DETERMINE ITS SOURCE. If you don?t know its source, continue anyway. The Holy Spirit will lead you into all truth. (John 14:16-17)


2. REPENT TO THE LORD FOR YOUR PART IN THIS FAMILY SIN, AND THE SINS OF YOUR FATHER (OR MOTHER). (See Nehemiah 1:4-11; Ps. 106:6-12)


3. DETERMINE IN YOUR HEART TO MAKE RESTITUTION IF THERE IS A REASON. Unless the Lord says to stop now and go do this, then continue the process, promising yourself that later you will follow through obedience. (Matt. 5:21-26; Matt. 7:1-5)


4. RENOUNCE ALOUD THE CONTRACTS MADE THROUGH THE FAMILY LINE. Open your eyes to address your adversary. (James 4:6-8)
Example: Powers of darkness, in the name of Jesus, I bind the strongman and spoil his house now regarding ____________ that has tormented my family and me. I break any and all contracts, covenants, alliances or curses between me and my father, and his father and mother all the way back to Adam. I renounce your work in my life, and by the authority of Jesus Christ I evict you from me (and any other direct family members you might include) and command you to loose me. (Do the same from the mother's side of the family) Continue renouncing until you sense a breakthrough in your heart.


5. ASK THE SPIRIT OF GOD TO COME AND FILL YOU. Also ask God to let you see some manifestation of your warfare. Be careful to observe closely, because many of the breakthroughs are small at the beginning and can be overlooked while expecting something much different. At the smallest of changes in you, your children or family, take the opportunity to thank the Lord and ask him to do more. Give God all the glory for everything you experience.

(7) 07-07-07 ROAD TRIP REPORT—The Call NASHVILLE

 

July 12, 2007

Steve Shultz and Jessica Miller:

"07-07-07 ROAD TRIP REPORT--TheCall NASHVILLE"

FOUNDING EDITOR'S NOTE: As you watch this video, please know that NO AMOUNT of videotape or streaming internet can do justice to this CALL for repentance and justice in Nashville on 07-07-07. Eight people from the ElijahList flew out and attended TheCall Nashville. The heat was almost unbearable, but the thirst for a massive move of God was even more unquenchable.

We drank water and Gatorade all day, and it did some good to keep our bodies dealing with the heat, but the bottom line is this...Something happened--something very, VERY BIG--in Nashville. As there were up to three times as many marriages as any day in history, around the world, Lou Engle led the "charge" (along with people such as Dutch Sheets, Bishop Bill Hamon, Cindy Jacobs, Bishop Harry Jackson, James Goll; Jewish leaders such as Michael Brown, as well as many Native American and Latino leaders) in one of the greatest and most intense CALLS in the history of the United States, for the Church in America and around the world to become REMARRIED to Jesus. The prophetic ACTS of several weddings were simply signs of what the crowd was doing—becoming once again committed to God, for all eternity. There was a female abortion doctor who repented on behalf of all those doctors who perform abortions.

I have never repented for more things and in more ways in my life, and to do it in a Stadium nearly full (TITAN STADIUM in Nashville, often called the "Buckle of the Bible Belt") held high and Holy meaning for all of us. This was one of the most meaningful events of my life. Only "future history" – not yet written on earth, but "prerecorded in Heaven" – will show what we accomplished for this nation in Nashville, on Saturday, July 7, 2007. The event was broadcast live by GOD TV in more than 200 nations simultaneously, although due to full servers, some viewers were unable to log on. In the future, it may be available on GOD.TV as Video On Demand. My thanks to CBN for covering this event.

Imagine this: Nashville Tennessee – the Titan stadium...prophetic words being fulfilled in our very midst – and the thrill of being a part of it on July 7, 2007 (7/7/7).

Many years ago, Bob Jones and other reputable prophets declared "stadium meetings," and there we were – participating with the Lord and the awesome display of His word fulfilled!

Anticipation, humility, and faith filled the air with a tangible presence. Repentance, forgiveness, worship, spiritual warfare, the divorcing of the Church and America from the spirit of baal – the recommitting and recovenanting in marriage to the Lord after 40 years of departing from Him, our Bridegroom...
There were even three marriage ceremonies sealed as a sign of our being sealed to the Lord – it was a stunningly weighty and glorious day – one of which words fall so very short in describing. It was mind, soul, and spirit "boggling."

Prophetic words were released concerning terrorism – a call to pray for exposure and intervention. Also, the Lord clearly declared that the very purpose why all the many thousands of us had joined there in that place in one accord actually worked – it was not just a hyped up emotional screamfest – it was Joel 2:16-25 happening before our very eyes--in us, through us, and for us...

Gather the people,
Sanctify the congregation,
Assemble the elders,
Gather the children and nursing babes;
Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber,
And the bride from her dressing room.
Let the priests, who minister to the LORD,
Weep between the porch and the altar;
Let them say, "Spare Your people, O LORD,
And do not give Your heritage to reproach,
That the nations should rule over them.
Why should they say among the peoples, 'Where is their God?'" Then the LORD will be zealous for His land,
And pity His people.
The LORD will answer and say to His people,

"Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil,
And you will be satisfied by them;
I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.
"But I will remove far from you the northern army,
And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land,
With his face toward the eastern sea
And his back toward the western sea;
His stench will come up,
And his foul odor will rise,
Because he has done monstrous things."
Fear not, O land;
Be glad and rejoice,
For the LORD has done marvelous things!
Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field;

For the open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And rejoice in the LORD your God;
For He has given you the former rain faithfully,
And He will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain,
And the latter rain in the first month.
The threshing floors shall be full of wheat,
And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
"So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten... Beloved Bride of Christ – our labors (yours and mine) have not been in vain – surely the set time has come and the scales of justice, mercy, and grace have been tipped in favor of the establishment of God's Kingdom come – His will be done HERE on earth as it is in Heaven!
