Mary led group in worship…

Pastor Ray shared…

Yesterday was a big day for Israel. And it’s a big day for us. That is such a huge step for the United States. If you bless Israel, what happens? You’ll be blessed. I’m so thankful and grateful. And it was on Billye Brim’s birthday!

In Psalm 122:1, “I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. 2 Our feet shall stand within thy gates, O Jerusalem. 3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is compact together: 4 Whither the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord, unto the testimony of Israel, to give thanks unto the name of the Lord. 5 For there are set thrones of judgment, the thrones of the house of David. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee. 7 Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. 8 For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will now say, Peace be within thee. 9 Because of the house of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.”

Father, we pray over the city of Jerusalem, the State of Israel, over the people, over Prime Minister Netanyahu, over all those in positions of authority in Israel. Our President and Vice President, congress, senate. Thank You that this United States stood up yesterday and declared what was already true. That Jerusalem is the capital city of Israel. As we declare Your peace over the city, we declare it again today. It will not be divided. It is the capital city of Israel. And the embassy will be moved, where it should always have been. Father, thank You. No weapon formed against the nation of Israel or the United States will prosper. We plead the blood for protection over this nation, our President and every position of authority.

Declaration over America…

We lift up those in authority and continue to believe and agree together as the body of Christ for our nation. And according to Your Word, we pray for and lift up President Donald Trump and his family, staff, and cabinet members. We apply the blood of Jesus over them and declare no weapon, no lies, no deception, no deceiving spirits, no catastrophes, no calamity, no insufficiency, no plot of the enemy will prosper against them. We ask that Your word would cling to them and let them not depart from Your plan. We ask that You would strengthen each one of them with mighty power by Your Spirit to stand against lies and wickedness and deception. Guide President Trump’s decisions. Thank You for supernatural strength. Thank You that he hears and sees and knows by the Holy Ghost in the name of Jesus. That anointing that is upon His life to remove burdens and destroys yokes in the name of Jesus. Let Your light shine upon his path and show him the path of reversal for every evil way. Continually surround him with godly men and women who impart wise counsel to him and cause the way of the wicked to be set to confusion and come to nothing. Deliver us from the traps and snares the enemy has laid for us and let the wicked be caught in their own devices and brought to shame. We take authority over the plots and plans of the enemy against this nation. Let prideful and lying lips be silenced in Jesus’ name. Slanderers will not be established in America. We pray for our congress, our supreme court, our military leaders, and our intelligence agencies. Let the wisdom that is from above reign in this nation and be constantly speaking to our leaders. We exercise the authority You have given us to tread down all the power of the enemy. We cast down and demolish imaginations and arguments that exalt themselves against the knowledge of God, and we bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. We bind spirits of strife and division, civil wars and tumults, spirits of hostility, lawlessness and blasphemy, and fires from hell that have burned in our cities.

We speak grace and peace over America. We pray and believe for the voice of truth, salvation, revival, and restoration to be proclaimed and heard across our land. Grant unto your servants everywhere that with all boldness we may speak your Word. We pray for a mighty outpouring of your Spirit with signs, wonders, and miracles. We expect the wisdom of this world that is earthly, sensual, and devilish to depart and vanish until Your mighty work in America becomes a beacon of hope for all people everywhere. We expect the voice of rejoicing to be heard in our nation for your goodness, mercy, and prosperity in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Devil, we put you on notice that Minnesota is not going further away from God. Minnesota is going more closely connected to the right, the God’s purpose for this state. We plead the blood of Jesus over Minnesota.

Revival has been declared that it will break out here in the upper part of the country in Minnesota. We hold fast to this, by faith we hold it. We remind You, Lord, what You said through Your servant years ago. Revival would break out here in the northern part of the United States of America in Minnesota in our cities over by 35W. Just to be exact about it. Then it would move from the north all the way down through the south.

No weapon formed against us will prosper. No word of the enemy can stop us or the will and plan of God. It shall come to pass.

Prayed…

We lift up those spiritual leaders in this region and apply the blood over them
We call them to a higher place, a greater anointing, to greater visibility
We call for greater utterance in the Holy Ghost
Words from heaven declared
We call for greater platforms, for cohesiveness, cooperation
The body to come together with one heart, one mind, one faith
Moving together for Your plan and purpose
We loose ministering angels to assist us in all of our ways
We apply the blood over the planning for Pulse in May
We call all the finances met in Jesus’ name
All the monies and more to come in so we can do exactly what the Spirit says to do
No restrictions, no limitations
We call all the personnel and participants to come forth to freely give their supply
To flow in the Holy Ghost
The body is shaking off every hindrance that would limit
Rising in the Holy Ghost and in power with words and signs and wonders, hitting the streets
Declaring the glorious good news of the Gospel
We thank You that Your Word has free course in this state and city
Rivers of living water flowing in this state and city
Rising and bringing life and health, restoration and healing
Shake off every hindrance in Jesus’ name
Lord, we see it and hold fast to all these things.

I read Acts 28 this morning. Paul is on the ship and it went down in the storm. It looks like they weren’t going to make it. I like in Acts 27 he began to talk to the people on the ship. They’re going down. He said, “Last night, God’s angel stood at my side, an angel of this God I serve saying to me, Don’t give up, Paul.” They hadn’t seen the light of day for days. He said, “You’re going to stand before Caesar yet.” In other words, you’re on the way to Rome. “You will go to Rome. And everyone sailing with you is also going to make it.” That’s good news. So “dear friends, take heart.” There were over 200 people on the ship. “I believe God will do exactly what He told me, but we’re going to shipwreck on some island. The ship will wreck but we will be saved.” So he had his Word. “Last night, God’s angel stood at my side saying to me Don’t give up, Paul. You’re going to Rome.”

Verse 28, says once they were safely on shore. They made a beeline for Malta but they hit ground and the ship broke up. They were all saved exactly the way the word said to him, it’s going to be alright. It’s dark and nasty. The ship is going down but everyone is going to make it. So once safely on shore, we found out that the island was called “Malta.” The islanders showed us unusual kindness. They built a fire and welcomed us because it was raining and cold. Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and as he put it on the fire a viper driven out by the heat fastened itself onto his hand. Everyone saw it. The viper attached itself to his hand! It was a deathly viper. He’s hanging onto the word that he was given, knowing he’s on the way to Rome. Doesn’t matter how nasty the viper was. He shook it off and it went back into the fire. The people saw the snake hanging from his hand and said to each other, “this man must be a murderer for though he escaped from the sea the goddess justice has not allowed him to live.” But Paul just shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects. The people expected him to swell up or fall dead. But after waiting a long time and seeing nothing is unusual happening to him, they changed their minds and said he was a God. What a group!

They stayed there for three months and treated awesome by the people. The chief of the island welcomed them to his home and showed them generous hospitality for three days. His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever. Paul went in to see him and after prayer, he placed his hands on him and healed him. When this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were healed. The whole island got healed. “They honored us in many ways and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with supplies.”

This keeps coming up in me today. Fear. There are temptations to take fear about the future. It’s not just in the world. The church too. There are people that are born again, Spirit filled where fear has tried to get in them. It could be about a circumstance. Paul was in a storm. But Paul wasn’t moved because he had a word. We have the Word! The Word is true. Are we healed? Yes! Are we prosperous? Yes, the Word says so.

We read this week a prophecy from Smith Wigglesworth. He declared a lot of things in 1927 about the times we’re living in right now. At the end of it, there were about 8 points about what the church would look like. A lot of churches begin to deny hell, the devil. Certain ministries took the blood out of their hymnals. But they overcame by the blood. But point number eight was the church should begin to ask extravagantly. How else can the wealth of the sinner come into the hands of the church without us even believing for it? A little is good but more is better. We’re to ask extravagantly in every area.

Our Father is an extravagant Father and He’s given us His Word that we would continually receive extravagantly. He’s ready for us to get ourselves in expectation and ask beyond what we’ve asked for before. When the church rises up and act extravagantly and give and give and give the church will be a light and the world will see there is something different about those people. They’re always giving and always receiving. They’re prospering in every area of their lives.

Prayed…

Father, we thank You that we live now in this day and hour. Father, You said You would bring the church from one degree of glory to another. We believe and expect to see radical change in the Church. Radical change and transformation, from one degree of glory to another. Shaking and shedding those things that hinder or limit. We thank You for increase in our ability to receive, our capacity to receive. We’ve removed all hindrances and shame that would attach itself to any member in the body of Christ. We thank You that we move over into the belief system. I believe therefore I speak. I believe my God has spoken it not only through His written Word but through the Holy Ghost has spoken to me things. So in the name of Jesus, we receive that, we receive the financial inversion in the church. Because we have adjustments and change and priorities rearranged to be vessels that will allow the goodness and mercy and glory and the prosperity of God almighty to flow through us to the lost and helpless and hopeless. Just as Paul shook off anything that tried to limit and hinder him from obtaining the ultimate plan for him going to Rome, we shake those things off. We hold fast to the Word. Each one seeing and knowing by the Spirit. Your written Word and the Holy Spirit given word to our lives personally so that would each flow and function in a new way. Along the way, those will be blessed. The blessing of God would touch and reach their lives. Just as healing was brought to that island, Father, just as prosperity gave to them and were able to go on to further the Gospel. We thank You for the impact every believer potentially has, that by Your mercy and grace, we walk in it. The full influence of Christ. All we do and say, utterance in the Holy Ghost. A revelation, Father, of the words we speak and declare of the import of our words and the effect we have. That even a ship full of people can be saved because we obeyed you. Because we serve a good Father. So Father, we’re asking that, that would dawn upon the church, that each is vital when vitally connected to the vine. They become vital ministers of the glorious good news of the Gospel. Even though the darkness seems to be getting darker, increase in the church will cause the light to increase.
