Morning Prayer Summary for Thursday, March 19, 2020

Annie led group in prayer…

Pastor Lynne…

Thank You, Lord… we’re thankful You are in our midst… You’re working through us… thank You for all the miracles and signs and wonders that You are performing on our behalf…

Let’s do that today, wherever you are all over the world, let’s magnify and worship Him… [group worships the Lord]

Father, we’re thankful for divine interventions from heaven… just lift your hands and voice up and worship Him…

There are a couple of things I want to remind you of, because of where we are right now. I’m Lynne Hammond and this is our prayer group that is “spaced out.” So we’re glad you decided to join us today, because we know that prayer changes things. So I want to make you aware of a couple things in the Word. We always go to the Word because we know that the Word sustains us. It carries and lifts us. It works for us and gives us peace in these times.

I’ve been reading about the church in the book of Acts and how they handled crisis. I see in Acts 2, the Lord speaking, He said in these days… Now remember that the church in Acts is our example. If we jump off from here, we see we’re living in the same situation they were living. All kinds of different things going on in the earth. This is where the church of the Lord Jesus Christ stood. So in Acts 2:22, Peter on the day of Pentecost. This is not the day when the church was born again. The church was born again back in John 21. But this was the day the power fell. This was the day of empowerment for the church.

So when he stood up, he said these words. “You men of Israel, listen to what I have to say. Jesus of Nazareth, a man of  accredited and pointed out and shown forth and commended and attested to you by God by the mighty works and [the power of performing]…” Some translations say miracles. And then it says, “and wonders.” And then it talks about signs. So when we talk about the book of Acts, we’re talking about the church and she is not a natural thing. That’s important for where we’re living now. She is not a natural thing. The church is supernatural because we have all of our roots in Jesus. So when you say out there that you are born again, you aren’t natural. You are supernatural. You are supernatural people. You serve a supernatural God.

And many times we see that, that God is a God who answers by fire. So just like the book of Acts, us being the supernatural church, every day we should be just like them. We expect miracles, not just in our own personal life but in the life of our State, in the life of our region and whatever land you are in right now, whatever place, whatever continent right now, wherever you are, you as a believer, your job is to expect miracles, signs and wonders. Every single day. In every place. Because the church is supernatural and is born of the Spirit, you know, right now for the church, we know that because of us the wind of heaven is blowing. We know that because of the incorruptible seed of the Word of God. And we know because of the blood of Jesus. It is washing. When we speak and plead the blood, that blood of Jesus is washing. You can’t always see that in the natural realm. But you can see that in the spiritual realm.

And that’s what we’re talking about today. The church is not an organization. We’re not some 501c3 organized group of people. We’re not just a document on a piece of paper. We are blood bought and supernatural. So this is what I expect today. I expect to see miracles. Every where. Wherever you are right now say, “I expect to see miracles today. And signs and wonders.” We have to have this because we are walking out into this territory called the “unknown.” As you know, we have never in this generation walked in this kind of place every before in this unknown territory. But in the Bible, there are always places where they walked out into an unknown territory. What did they do? They trusted their God.

If we look in Joshua 3, he told the children of Israel, “We didn’t walk this way before. Sanctify yourselves.” And he said, “By the way we walk right now, the world will know there is a living God.” So we’re right at that place. They were headed to their destiny, their destination. We are headed into our destiny, into our destination. Our final destination. Jesus is coming and we know these are all signs of His coming.

So right now for me, today, I believe for miracles. Tomorrow is Friday. Tomorrow, I believe for miracles. I believe for divine intervention of heaven because of the unknown territory that we have now transitioned in and moved into. There has to always be a breakthrough. When you find people praying and crying out to God, you will find there will be a breakthrough. Always a breakthrough. Because of our God. Because He always causes us to triumph in Christ Jesus. So wherever I am today, in my car, or at home, we’re expecting miracles.

One of the greatest miracles… and for all of you out there inline, one of the greatest miracles we see in the book of Acts is supernatural protection. There’s four different kinds of miracles in the book of Acts. I have been watching not just the world and people that don’t know God, but even Christians. Wow! And the fear that is robbing them of their senses. It’s crazy! But we will not be bound by fear. We know that in the name that is above every other name, all of this will come to nothing. That’s what we believe as Christians.

The devil tried to stop some things, and of course, he wants to ruin the economy. Here we are right in the middle of the rebirth of America and we can see his plan. What is his plan by all this? To stop all of that. But we Christians will not have it! We say “We will not have it.” Say that at home. In the name of Jesus, we break the power of Satan. And we put all of his works to confusion.

So if we look at Acts 28. I want to read you this  account of the supernatural protection. Go through the Word of God today as it will help you with your faith. Look at all the times God came with supernatural protection. It’s all the way through the Bible. This is interesting when this happened. Here Paul had just entered this new transition place where he was reaching unreached people groups. That’s where we are right now. The church are making tremendous inroads, universal, in getting people saved. You know what unreached people are? Unreached people are those that have never heard the name of Jesus. Not unsaved. Unsaved people are people that have heard the name, but we’re talking about unreached. This is exactly the same thing here.

So here we see with Paul, “After we were safe on the island, we knew and recognized that it was called Malta.” That’s how you know it was new. “And the natives showed us unusual and remarkable kindness, for they kindled a fire and welcomed and received us all, since it had begun to rain and was cold. Now Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and he was laying them on the fire when a viper crawled out because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand. When the natives saw the little animal hanging from his hand, they said to one another, Doubtless this man is a murderer, for though he has been saved from the sea, Justice [the goddess of avenging] has not permitted that he should live. Then [Paul simply] shook off the small creature into the fire and suffered no evil effects.” All right, when we pray, that’s what we’re doing, is shaking off, disarming this virus from this nation. That’s what you’re doing. “However, they were waiting, expecting him to swell up or suddenly drop dead.” That’s what the world is expecting us to do with this virus. They don’t know how many millions of people with the Bubonic plague died… 33 million or something. We won’t talk about that today. Then from this we see people got saved. So what we’re doing… do you know that what happened here with this viper… it came up out of nowhere and attacked. This is exactly the same source that, that viper came from is the same source this virus came from. When something comes up out of nowhere and in the natural you can’t fix it. But we are not in the natural. We’re the spiritual… we’re the church of God.

I remember when the Zika virus? That was another one. Pastor Mac and I were in Dallas in a meeting and they were saying on the news it’s going to take over. Somebody got up and said, “we bind the Zika virus.” It just disappeared! “Where did it go? We don’t know where it went?” You see what I’m saying? All this stuff comes from the exact same source as we saw this viper that came up on Paul. That whole realm, they don’t know what we know. They don’t have what we have. We have the Creator of the universe on our side and the part that the church plays right now as we stand in agreement together and we pray and bind the devil. Amen?

So the Lord is with us today. Say that, “The Lord is with me. And because I’m in Him, He’s around me.”

I’m reminded of something Gloria Copeland said. She said in Psalms 91, it says the Lord is my refuge. You know what a refuge is? It’s a bomb shelter. That’s the exact definition of refuge. He’s my refuge today. I don’t know if you’ve ever been in a bomb shelter. I have. Several times in Israel because I wanted to feel what the people actually felt in the bomb shelters. So I would go down in that shelter and stay down there a while so I could feel that. I’m in a bomb shelter today. I’m covered.

So in the name of the Lord, the Lord is a strong tower and we, the righteous, run into it and we are saved. And we are saved and our families are safe. Say that: My family is safe. My husband is safe. My wife is safe. My children’s children are safe. My dogs. My animals. My property. We’re all safe because of the blood of Jesus. Amen. We plead the blood of Jesus… the Word is sustaining us with supernatural power from heaven. Right now we’re going to lift our voice up and pray for different things here. Pastor Ray, do you have something you want to share right now?

Pastor Ray…

You’re speaking of the Lord coming and taking care of all these things. In Habakkuk, remember the prayer. Oh Lord, I’ve heard the report of You and was afraid. O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years, make Yourself known. In wrath, remember love, pity, or mercy. Then verse 3, “God approaching from Sinai came.” What did He do? He came. And the result was He came and worked across the land. The Amplified says, “Selah, pause and calmly think of that. His glory covered the heavens and the earth was full of His praise.” Then verse 4, “and his brightness was like the sunlight, rays streamed out of hands and there in the sun like splendor was the hiding place of His power.” That’s the high tower, right? “And before him went the pestilence.” You get it! “Before Him went the pestilence and burning plague followed him at his feet.” In other words, the pestilence got out of the way and behind Him, it was bowing. Just like we’ve declared, always over and over, this virus is cooked. It’s bowing. So at the end, even when Habakkuk hadn’t seen the total result of that presence, verse 18 says, “Yet I will rejoice in the Lord. I will exalt in the victorious God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, my personal bravery and my invincible army. He makes my feet like hinds feet and will make me to walk, not to stand still in terror but to walk and make spiritual progress upon my high places of trouble or suffering or responsibility.” Or whatever. In other words, we’re moving. And a couple other translations it says, “I could run like a deer.” Another one said, “I did summersaults.” In other words, joy! He was in joy and in faith believing what was going to happen because God came. He hadn’t seen it all yet. We haven’t seen it all yet, but we will see it.

Pastor Lynne…

We’re going to pray now and remember the Lord says in 2nd Chron. 7, when crisis comes to your nation, if my people who are called by My name will humble themselves, that means get down before Him, and pray, then He will heal our land. So right now we’re going to pray. Wherever you are…

Group worshiped…

Pastor Ray…

This is what I heard in my spirit: fear mongers have to cease. And good news, all over the earth beginning in America, there will be those speaking fear, calling on fear… they’ll stop and begin to report good news. That things are actually turning in the right way. Thank You for it, Lord. I want to read Psalm 91 from the Living Bible.
1 We live within the shadow of the Almighty, sheltered by the God who is above all gods.
2 This I declare, that he alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I am trusting him. 3 For he rescues you from every trap and protects you from the fatal plague. 4 He will shield you with his wings! They will shelter you. His faithful promises are your armor. 5 Now you don’t need to be afraid of the dark anymore, nor fear the dangers of the day; 6 nor dread the plagues of darkness, nor disasters in the morning.
7 Though a thousand fall at my side, though ten thousand are dying around me, the evil will not touch me. 8 I will see how the wicked are punished, but I will not share it. 9 For Jehovah is my refuge! I choose the God above all gods to shelter me. 10 How then can evil overtake me or any plague come near? 11 For he orders his angels to protect you wherever you go. 12 They will steady you with their hands to keep you from stumbling against the rocks on the trail. 13 You can safely meet a lion or step on poisonous snakes, yes, even trample them beneath your feet!
14 For the Lord says, “Because he loves me, I will rescue him; I will make him great because he trusts in my name. 15 When he calls on me, I will answer; I will be with him in trouble and rescue him and honor him. 16 I will satisfy him with a full life and give him my salvation.”
