Pastor Ray had a Word of the Lord…
Hallelujah, some of the things that are being walked out and carried through in these days, were prayed out way back in your yesterdays, in split seconds when you moved over out of the natural days gone by and prayed by the spirit, you made a way for the day and the weeks and the months that you are living in, these days. Don’t sweat it, don’t take a care about the future, because you are walking out the prayers that you have prayed. Others too have prayed and together as members of the same body, with one head, the Father God, we will fulfill what God has called us individually to fulfill. And it’s not just one day or one time, but it has been building up, your prayers, the prayers of the body, the prayers of the Church of the Lord Jesus, added together, brought together, they are making a way when we say, Jesus the way maker, He is, has, and will always make a way. So when we are tuned in and tuned up in that realm of the spirit things happen, doors open, doors close, situations change, and we will find ourselves right in the center where God has predestined us to be. Hallelujah, so we aren’t sweating it, we don’t have any cares. Do you have a care? Cares, individual cares, cares that are corporate, will try to come up. Of course, there are things in the natural, but let’s not take the care, or the anxiety, or the doubt, or the lack, but let it go, and give it to Him, He said to do it. So this morning we release them, we release them and let them go, we are free, we have been called to walk in victory, we are victorious, we are overcoming, we are who He said we would be, not us, but Him in us and through us. So as we step out of what we feel, and step into what we know which has been written for us from heaven above, right here in this book, we step on it, we stand strong on it, we walk with it, and we overcome. How many times? Every time, for we overcome because, He overcame because of what was done on the cross at Calvary, hallelujah, through that precious blood. Glory, Lord!
Scripture Focus…
(1–2) So if you’re serious about living this new resurrection life with Christ, act like it. Pursue the things over which Christ presides. Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ- that’s where the action is. See things from his perspective. (9–11) Don’t lie to one another. You’re done with that old life. It’s like a filthy set of ill-fitting clothes you’ve stripped off and put in the fire. Now you’re dressed in a new wardrobe. Every item of your new way of life is custom-made by the Creator, with his label on it. All the old fashions are now obsolete. Words like Jewish and non –Jewish, religious and irreligious, insider and outsider, uncivilized and uncouth, slave and free, mean nothing. From now on everyone is defined by Christ, everyone is included in Christ. (12–14) So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely ad the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.
(Colossians 3:1–2, 9–14 MSG)
Prayed…
We have overcome, we are overcoming, because He overcame
Thank You for the blood that lives and speaks today!
No, we will not take on those cares, but we will stand on Your Word
We enter into more of Your presence today, Lord
Yes, we magnify that name that is above every other name – Jesus!
Declaring that there would be no lack, nothing missing and nothing broken
Glory, glory, glory!
We humble ourselves before You, knowing without You, we are nothing
No, we can’t do it without You!
Fill us, and saturate us with Your precious Holy Spirit
Renew us, revive us, and refresh us, Lord
We are all members of one body, and we thank You for it, Father
Calling forth every supply, declaring that every need would be met according to Your Word
You are making a way, out into the future, and we will walk those things out!
We plead the blood of Jesus over the leaders of this nation
Yes, standing together arm in arm, united in one accord
Calling for every member to take their place of authority in Christ Jesus
Moving out of the natural and moving into the things of the Spirit
Words, and declarations, that are turning those situations
Yes, there is a way, there is a way, there is a way!
Our eyes, they see the truth of Your Word, where to go and when to go!
We can see it because You said we would see it
Calling for a mobilization of the body of Christ
Those ways are supernatural, they are not natural
We pray over the finishing, some things will be finished in these days
Contending, calling, and declaring for those things that are not as though they were
Calling for times of alignment, times of change
President Trump, you are never moved, they plot evil against you, and it did not harm you
Those that plot evil against you are being exposed
Declaring that they will either get in line, or they will get out!
Casting down every evil plot of the enemy that would try and come against this nation
We rely on You, Lord, and we put all of our confidence in You and in Your Word
No, we will not be moved by what we see, but we will stand steadfast on Your Word
Calling those things to come forth, and we declare no weapon formed against us shall or will prosper!
We will look up, and look ahead to all the things the Father has for us
Thank You for prosperity, wholeness, and restoration in spirit, soul, and body!

The following is a 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.
