Ms. Annie led us singing Psalm 91
Pastor Ray…
This morning I received an email from someone I know in Italy. You know there has been many people that have died in Italy. But one of the things that she said was in Italy the Corona virus didn’t start in one of the large cities. It started in a small village.
She said her husband at the beginning were really not that concerned because nothing had really happened. This was still in February. But she woke up in the middle of the night on a Friday evening and began to plead the blood of Jesus over Italy. In the morning she read the news. It turned out the first death in Italy was in her village. The blood of Jesus that she applied was not just for the whole country but it was for the protection for her and her family; the church and the people in that small village. There is a lot more to it. I may go over some of the things that she saw this week. But she is totally fine and things are changing. They are changing here too. Amen.
Scripture Focus…
And they have overcome (conquered) him by means of the blood of the Lamb and by the utterance of their testimony, for they did not love and cling to life even when faced with death [holding their lives cheap till they had to die for their witnessing]. Revelation 12:11 (AMPC)
They overcame by that precious blood. We overcome the virus through the precious holy blood of the Lamb. When it says our “testimony,” for sure we can read testimonies. We have testimonies but then it’s also testifying about the power that is in that blood.
When we declare Psalm 91, it’s the Word. That Word works. We’re protected in and through that precious psalm when we do something about it. Pastor Mac was talking about it in a recent service. We have to do something about it.
We have to pray it, believe it by faith, use our faith to know that we are covered, protected. And there is so much more in the blood. We are directed. We are led by the Spirit and we are protected by that precious blood.
I indeed baptize you in (with) water because of repentance [that is, because of your [changing your minds for the better, heartily amending your ways, with abhorrence of your past sins]. But He Who is coming after me is mightier than I, Whose sandals I am not worthy or fit to take off or carry; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Matthew 3:11 (AMPC)
Pastor Ray…
If it sounds like there are not a lot of people here, there are not. We can only have ten people in the Chapel. We are following the rules. Its short lived. We’re coming through. Things are going to be okay and we’re declaring things are going to be better than they ever were before because the Church is waking up. It’s time for the Church to be on alert all the time – awake.
When we are declaring and praying for revivals, the great awakening, we know that is one thing that will save America – an awakening. We have plenty Word in the Bible and then we have Words spoken by the Spirit through prophets over many years concerning revival and the last great awakening.
We have Words spoken over Minneapolis, over this part of the country! So, it’s time that we use what we know, declare, and bring it back up to the Father. Lord, You set it up here in the Midwest, up here by the Mississippi river and interstate 35W. Up in this area, there will begin a revival and it will move down south from Minnesota. So first, this morning, I want to pray over Minnesota. This is where we are. This is where we live.
Thank You, Father. We are reminding You of what You said at different times. I am reminded of a prophecy that Brother Kenneth Copeland gave years ago from here. He said “up here in the Midwest, people will begin to fly in and they will be drawn to the light on the northern part of the city.” We’re on the northern part! They will be drawn to the light of the Holy Ghost. We remind You of what was prophesied at Macalester College years ago. The Spirit of God would begin to move on normal people up here in the Midwest. Revival would begin to break out and like I said, it would begin to move down as if it went down the river. It would begin to expand out, go out further, covering the whole United States of America. There will be other breakouts. There will be other fires that will begin to burn. There will be other little revivals here and revivals there.
Thank You, Father, that You sent an alarm to us and that alarm is in our spirits and it’s beginning to go off that we’d begin to watch every area of our personal lives, but every area corporately as we pray together in one accord. Thank you, Father. Thank You, Lord.
We cover Minnesota all around the counties, all around the cities, towns, villages in Jesus’ name. We plead the blood of Jesus over our Governor, our senate, congress, all those in positions of authority this morning in our state. And we declare this morning Minnesota is moving more and more in God’s way! It’s miraculous but it’s coming to pass because we serve a great Holy Father. You are holy. You are glorious. You are beautiful. You’ve never changed. Your Words are still the same. You are working even when we don’t know it or feel it or see it. We know You are working.
By Faith today, we declare it over Minnesota – the blood of Jesus! Just like that lady in Italy declared the blood of Jesus over her country. We declare that blood first of all over our state, Minnesota. We call it up. We call it whole. We call it healthy in Jesus’ name. We plead the blood of Jesus against that virus and declare the numbers are beginning to turn downward. We see it. By faith we see it. We take it. We receive it in Jesus’ name. Thank You for it, Lord.
We’re covering the virus. We’re coming against the virus. People are praying all over the earth. Some people that hadn’t even known the Lord will begin to come into the light. There will be great advances bringing people into the light from heaven, being saved. There are many different things. We want to see more and more lives changed, families changed. But there is also one other area… First of all I want to go down this confession by Keith Moore on healing. I thought it would be good. I want you to do this for you and for your family. The last time I did this for me, I did it for my family, for those that I know. I did it for our church, this family here.
Father, thank You that we are Your children. You saw fit to get somebody, sometime back whenever to begin to pray for us, had a heart to pray for us, and we became Your children. Thank You for the authority You have given us in that name, Jesus. Thank You for giving us Your precious Holy Spirit, the Greater One, the mighty power of God. We are baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire. We’re going to say it now together and do it together.
Faith Confession by Keith Moore
Father God, I thank You I am Your child,
I thank You for giving me the Name of Jesus and the authority that goes with it,
Thank You for giving me Your Holy Spirit, the Greater One, the Mighty Power of God.
In Jesus’ Name, I have authority over all demons, over all disease, to move obstacles, to stop problems, to calm storms, to rebuke sickness,
I have authority! I have power! In Jesus’ Name.
(Put your hands on your head)
In Jesus’ Name, fear and doubt leave me, be gone. Confusion, deception, be gone
Heaviness, be gone. Depression, be gone in Jesus’ Name
Mind, be strong, think clear, be bright and sharp.
(Put your hands on your chest)
Soul, be strong, have peace, be at rest and be free and loosed.
(Put your hands on your body)
Body, be strong.
Tumors and growths, anything that ought not be in the body, I speak against you. I command you in Jesus’ Name, die, die, dry up, be gone, leave me.
Heart, be clear, be strong
Lungs, be clear, be strong
Stomach, intestines, be healed, be healed, be whole, be free, work right
Every organ, every gland, be right, be normal, be healthy, be strong
Every bone, every muscle, every ligament, all my nerves, all my skin, be healthy,
Be whole, be right, be strong, in Jesus’ Name.
Satan, in Jesus’ Name, I command you, take your hands off my money, off my finances,
off my investments, off my business, off my job.
In Jesus’ Name STOP in your operations, cease in your maneuvers
Ministering Spirits, angels—GO! Cause money to come.
Work, influence—cause it to come in Jesus’ Name.
(Note: Claim specific amounts, some extra!)
In Jesus’ Name, Satan, stop in your operations and your maneuvers against our marriages,
against our families, against our children.
We forbid it. We bind you. You cannot continue. We stop it in Jesus’ Name.
Our marriages are strong.
Our families are strong and free and right in Jesus’ Name.
So be it.
Scripture focus…
(1) You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shade of the Almighty,
(2) Say to the Lord, “My refuge and fortress,
my God in whom I trust.”
(3) He will rescue you from the fowler’s snare,
from the destroying plague,
(4) He will shelter you with his pinions,
and under his wings you may take refuge;
his faithfulness is a protecting shield.
(5) You shall not fear the terror of the night
nor the arrow that flies by day,
(6) Nor the pestilence that roams in darkness,
nor the plague that ravages at noon.
(7) Though a thousand fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
near you it shall not come.
(8) You need simply watch;
the punishment of the wicked you will see.
(9) Because you have the Lord for your refuge
and have made the Most High your stronghold,
(10) No evil shall befall you,
no affliction come near your tent.
(11) For he commands his angels with regard to you,
to guard you wherever you go.
(12) With their hands they shall support you,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
(13) You can tread upon the asp and the viper,
trample the lion and the dragon.
(14) Because he clings to me I will deliver him;
because he knows my name I will set him on high.
(15) He will call upon me and I will answer;
I will be with him in distress;
I will deliver him and give him honor.
(16) With length of days I will satisfy him,
and fill him with my saving power. Psalm 91 (NABRE)
Prayer for our Nation by Pastor Lynne Hammond:
Father, in the name of Jesus, and according to your Word, we pray for those in authority in our nation. We lift up President Donald Trump, his family, his staff and cabinet members. Let Your Word cling to them and let them not depart from your plan. Strengthen them with mighty power by your Spirit to stand against wickedness, lies and deception. Guide President Trump’s decisions; 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. 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 devises and be 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.
