Pray Through the NIGHTWATCH -- April 1-April 14

Saints of God -- we are Kingdom intercessors and not intercessors for any specific political party. But it is now clear that we are in a battle for the very destiny of the life of our nation, contending against forces of evil that would try to take us down.

As we all know in America, under the U.S. Constitution, we are blessed by a balance of power at the federal level, which establishes three branches of government: the executive branch; the judicial branch; and the legislative branch.

In this time of a quiet and not-so-quiet, revolution, we can see that the enemies of our Republic are in a panic. They are now raging in a desperate move to regain the power they have wielded for too long and that they have now lost or are about to lose.

Two years ago, the liberals lost control of our Executive Branch: The White House. They then lost control of the Judicial Branch when two new, "conservative-minded" justices were seated on the Supreme Court.

Now, however, While two of our three branches of government remain firmly in conservative hands, a battle has appeared in Congress. The Senate remains firm, but a firestorm has erupted in the House of Representatives, where far left-wing "social justice Democrats" are now fighting to control their party -- and Congress; while a solid Republican base has lost ground.

Through the travail of the night, our intercessors are working to hold the ground that has been gained for conservative leadership, while taking back the ground that has been lost. In doing so, we do not war against men or women, but " . . . against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Eph. 6:12)

As we "wage warfare" on behalf of the very souls our leaders, we contend against an enemy who would keep each one bound to do his will -- instead setting each one free to know the Truth - Jesus Christ - and to then rule in Truth as well. This move of the Spirit in setting captives free is accomplished by praying for each one from a heart of mercy and forgiveness . . . and then "letting go" to see what will happen next. Praise God!

"For the LORD is our judge,
The LORD is our lawgiver,
The LORD is our king;
He will save us- "(Isaiah 33:22)

By using the "weapons of our warfare" in worship and intercession and battling against the "principalities and powers in high places" (not the people). We are now called to HOLD THE GROUND WE HAVE GAINED and to agree with GOD as He moves His Kingdom forward in the realm of civil government in our nation.

During most of next month, the Holy Spirit is calling us to launch 14 NIGHTS of prayer for the United States in a strategy called THE NIGHTWATCH (April 1st to April 14th). During THE NIGHTWATCH, we are free to provide focused prayer over our country and to intercede over the issues of the day AND, during the NIGHTWATCH, too, we will also "pray for the peace of Jerusalem," night after night after night. . .

Since our ministry was birthed in 1994, we have come to realize that we do confront enemy forces in the heavenlies - the principalities and powers in high places. And though they are active in the heavens, they are working through men and women on earth . . . men and women who are being held captive to do the will of the evil one.

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Ephesians 6:12)

As the enemy is working to gain ground through the night, while most are asleep, our heart-cry is to undo those works through acts of forgiveness, and decrees that counter their work and speak TRUTH over the nation.

WORKING TOGETHER, WE ESTABLISH THE FREQUENCY OF HEAVEN ON EARTH, TRUSTING OUR GOD FOR A "TURNAROUND" THAT WILL DEMOLISH SATAN'S PLANS . . . AND SET HIS CAPTIVES FREE!

Recall Esther, whose uncle Mordecai went to bed one night, thinking he would be hung the next morning on the gallows Haman was constructing. But, OVERNIGHT, something changed. The gallows meant for Mordecai were used instead to hang the wicked Haman.

- Recall Jacob, who travailed THROUGH THE NIGHT with an angel, until he received the blessing of our Father.

- Recall Moses, who led the Israelites OVERNIGHT, through the Red Sea, to safety.

Let us go forth with the Light of the Word of God, the blood of the Lamb and a warrior's cry of worship and redeem back what belongs to King Jesus!

We'll take the battle, where the battle needs to be taken: * to the highest gates of authority in our nation; *at the exact time the battle must be waged.

Praise God for His Victory!! Has He not, indeed, designed the strategy of the NIGHTWATCH, "for such a time as this?"

HalleluJah!
