When: Wednesday, March 20, 2013 to Monday, March 25, 2013 Will you join us?
Why: Spring is the loveliest time of the year. It is a season of life, rebirth, growth, purity, positive change, and awakening of the human soul. It is time for the truth to be exposed. It is a sin to know the truth and not to tell it (James 4:17). The lies and deception have continued non-stop for the past 2,000 years and they are being used to keep people from believing in Jesus/Yeshua and believers from living an abundant, supernatural life. Jesus/Yeshua referred to His followers as believers and those who did not as unbelievers who are either Jews or Gentiles. Yeshua is the Hebrew name for Jesus.
March 20, 2013 marked the first day of Spring and I.S.A.M. celebrated by hosting a 2 hour show by praying for all God’s people, believers and unbelievers in all 7 continents. We also prayed that pray that all believers will obey the Spring Feasts: Passover, Feasts of Unleavened Bread, First Fruits & Pentecost/Shavuot. The early church followed these feasts in the New Testament. It is written in Numbers 9:14, “Ye should have one ordinance.” It emphasizes that non-Israelites were also subject to God’s commands & promises. We prayed that the Jews and Gentiles would be united in their love of God & in obedience to Christ. The believers should learn the statutes & commandments, keep them & do them in the name of Yeshua.
Problem: Apostasy is running rampant in America and in many nations.
Solution: The only solution to reverse apostasy is 2 Chronicles 7:14, which states, “ if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” Solomon asked God to make provision for the people when they sinned. God answered with four conditions for forgiveness: (1) Humble yourself by admitting your sins (2) pray to God, asking for forgiveness; (3) seek God continually, and (4) turn from sinful behavior. True repentance is more than talk – it is a changed behavior. Whether we sin individually, as a group, or as a nation, following these steps will lead to forgiveness. God will answer with our earnest prayers. (Source: Life Applications Study Bible)
Prayers: For the past month, we have asked believers to join us by praying the Lord’s Prayer on the hour as we call for justice and plead for the truth. You can add these prayers to your personal prayers as well. We will be on one accord. Will you stand in agreement with us by praying on the hour?
- The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13)
- Aaronic Blessing (Numbers 6:24-26)
- Jabez Prayer (1 Chronicles 4:10)
A spiritual war is happening right now. Everyone has a role to play in it. Whether you like it or not, you are in it, but there are things that you are responsible for doing. Many people have other “gods” in their lives: love of money, sex, drugs, and addictions to name a few, which should be removed out of their lives, if they want to experience the abundant life that is waiting for them. Here are some thought-provoking questions for you to ponder: Do you know the keys to have victory against the enemy? Are you putting on God’s whole armor, as well as, the blood of Jesus/Yeshua daily? Are your prayers being answered? Are you confessing and repenting of your sins quickly like David? Are you using your time, talents, or money to help others? Are you mediating on the Word of God daily? Do you have a personal relationship with God? Are you casting out devils or laying hands on the sick as stated in Jesus’/Yeshua’s Great Commission (Mark 16:15-18)? Have you ever fasted outside of when your church does it? Are you praying for Jerusalem and blessing the Jewish people? If you answered no to any of these questions, then you are probably not living an abundant, supernatural life due to lack of knowledge.
Prayer is one form of spiritual warfare, but fasting and taking action should be incorporated in order to prevail over evil. We have seen justice in Canada for those who were guilty of genocide (www.itccs.org) and now we call for justice against genocide, slavery, crimes against humanity & ongoing criminal conspiracy that is “secretly” being done in America and in many other nations. We plead the TRUTH in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. Prayer can change any trial or tribulation. There is no man/woman/child, group, family, nation or country that is so evil that God cannot turn around. That comes with a 110% guarantee! He accepts you as you are. You do not need to change anything. He will change you.
We must pray, fast, and take action. We want to pull heaven down to earth. Many people are missing their breakthrough by only changing the natural world and not the invisible, supernatural world. God is spirit. Words are spirit. The Word of God is a powerful, supernatural living document.
We have to attack evil at every level. We must begin with ourselves first, then our families, then our communities, our Church leaders and our National leaders in our nations. Even though many of us are not responsible for the sin that is permeating in our nations, SIN AFFECTS ALL OF US. We each have a role to play to combat the evil. It is a war; a spiritual war. Everyone has a role to play in this spiritual war. We can change outcomes.
Many people are doing something to combat sin in their nations. Pastor Miles McPherson (www.milesmcpherson.com) wants you to realize that God has prepared you to do great things. “The world needs you. It’s broken,” says pastor and author Miles McPherson. ”Your neighbors are in desperate need of love and a helping hand.” In his new book, DO Something! Make Your Life Count, Miles talks about our purpose — and how everything that happens to us is part of a plan God laid out before creation to prepare us for right now.
Do Something!: A Handbook for Young Activists by Nancy Lublin, Vanessa Martir & Julia Steers takes aim at the next generation of do-gooders. DoSomething.org knows exactly how to reach kids. The largest Internet-based teen service organization, it supports 750,000 projects, receiving 15 million visitors a month, and, for the first time ever, broadcasting a Do Something Awards show on VH1.
What are you doing to combat "sin" in your life, your family, your community or your nation? What will you do? It requires more than prayer. It may include fasting. More importantly, it includes action. We must take action by holding people accountable for their actions, helping those to overcome temptation, or "take up arms" against corporate greed, homelessness, against governments that systematically oppress the masses with institutionalize prejudice or injustices. Pastor Gregory A. Boyd, author of “God At War: The Biblical& Spiritual Conflict” refers to it as “social activism”. In the Holy Bible, Nehemiah, Esther, and Joseph did it. As believers, we are called to fight against injustices and oppression. Will you join in the fight to enforce Satan’s defeat or will you blame everything on God and give others and the devil a “free pass”?
Benefits of Prayer and Fasting
Prayer means to make supplication, petition or thanksgiving to God. In Dr. Larry Dossey’s M.D. book, “Healing Words” presented scientific evidence that prayer can figure prominently in healing illness. Prayer is a secret to personal relationship with God. It is the direct communication to God. Prayer will change the natural world because the Word of God affects the spirit realm. Some mountains are more difficult as stated in Matthew 17:21, "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." The natural world is controlled by the invisible, supernatural realm. We want to pull heaven down to earth. We are requesting that everyone pray on the hour by praying the Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13). As stated in Matthew 18:19-20, “Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them”. (Note: In order for our prayers to be answered, you must have faith as small as a mustard seed and no doubt, confess & repent of your sins and forgive others & yourself.)
Fasting means going without food to spend time in prayer. Fasting can be beneficial spiritually and physically for the person doing it. God also wants us to go beyond our personal growth to have genuine compassion for the poor, the widow, the helpless, & the oppressed by our acts of kindness, charity, and justice. God hears your prayers when you are fasting & you have helped others. "Some mountains are more difficult as stated in Matthew 17:21, "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting." By fasting, one shows discipline, humility before God, and faith. It is pleasing to God when we have a genuine compassion to others as well. In Isaiah 58:5-11, it states that fasting does the following: (1) Fasting allows the person to show humility before God; (2) loosens the bonds of wickedness; & (3) will undo the bands of the yoke. As a result, God promises the following: (1) your recovery will speedily spring forth; (2) God will cover your back; (3) God promises to answer quickly when you call, your light will rise in darkness; & (4) the Lord will continually guide you through future troubles. Fasting is a sign of repentance (Mark 2:18). (Source: Life Applications Study Bible KJV)
By fasting, one shows discipline, humility before God, and faith. What are you willing to give up? There are various fasts in the Bible. It can be one meal or two meals, you can give up eating meat by eating only vegetables, you can eat nothing from sun-up to sundown each day, or you can do a liquid fast. You can fast as short as a day or as long as 50 days. (Note: If you are under the care of a medical doctor: you should seek the advice of your doctor before fasting.)

This includes Apostles, Bishops, Prophets, Prophetess, Evangelists, Rabbis and Teachers.
Sin is not only about doing wrong, but sin is also not doing right. Everyone has a role to play in the spiritual warfare. What is their role?
It is time for the church to stop entertaining believers and start teaching the full Gospel of God’s Kingdom, including Jesus’/Yeshua’s Great Commission. Even Jesus/Yeshua condemned religious leaders who are looking holy in order to receive people’s admiration & praise, instead of being holy and living by the Scriptures. Many are arrogant, seek power, money and status, while their congregations are enamored by them and they are “spiritual dead” and dying due to lack of knowledge. Why are there so many “poor” and sick people in the church and a long sick & shut-in list? Why isn’t there a deliverance ministry casting out the spirit of sickness & disease in them? There is a “building church fund” ministry.
Is there a group of church leaders, Jews and Gentiles, who want to break the curse of discord in the church so that they can unite because they worship the Lord Jesus Christ/Yeshua and put everything else aside? Is the church praying for Jerusalem and blessing the Jewish people? Many believers will miss their blessings because they are not being taught the truth about celebrating the Holy Days?
How many church/synagogue leaders will tell their congregation about the truth about Holy Days on Sunday’s sermon? Teach on confessing/repenting of sins? Teach on deliverance ministry like Jesus/Yeshua did by casting out devils, which is part of Jesus’/Yeshua’s Great Commission (Mark 16:17)? How many church/synagogue leaders will even state publicly that “Jesus Christ/Yeshua is their Lord and Savior over their lives?” Visit David Barton’s website: www.wallbuilders.com to learn about church, state, and America’s history. Church can take an active role in civic activities.

8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. EST
The Believers Commitment Prayer can be prayed below.
Believers –Adults Only
(Unbelievers are invited as well.)
Sin is not only about doing wrong, but sin is also not doing right. Everyone has a role to play in the spiritual warfare. What is their role? Many believers are not living an abundant, supernatural life because they do not realize that Jesus/Yeshua has given them the authority to trample over snakes & scorpions to over ALL the power of the enemy; nothing should harm them (Luke 10:18). They are not utilizing the Holy Spirit, which is very powerful. Many do not even have a personal relationship with God or meditate on the Word of God. Believers can have demons, which needs to be cast out. Jesus/Satan did it. Visit www.demonbuster.com for prayers & information. Learn the “Secret” Keys to Win every Battle/War, Significance of the Holy Days & how believers are missing their blessings if they don’t do offerings. Believers should confess & repent of their sins quickly. Benefits of prayer & fasting. Believers should pray for Jerusalem and blessing the Jewish people.
The responsibility of the adults is to teach the next generations.

March 25, 2013: noon to 2:00 p.m. EST
The Believers Commitment Prayer can be prayed below.
National Leaders & those who are working with/for them
Sin is not only about doing wrong, but sin is also not doing right. We must respect the position a person holds, even if we do not respect the person. When you respect the position and the person it is much easier to accept and embrace the policy and the programs the person in leadership promotes. If you have proper respect for the position, but do not respect the person, it is very difficult to embrace and support policy and programs the leader promotes. Due to commands the Lord has instructed us to follow; we must pray for and support those that God has in leadership.
Everyone has a role to play in the spiritual warfare. What is their role? Will any National Leader Publicly Repent of Personal & Nation’s Sins like Ugandan President Museveni did in 2012?
Is America under judgment because of words spoken by National Leaders?

Believers – How is your foundation?
Imagine you are building a house and the foundation is cracked. Would you continue building the house by going to the next level & ignoring the cracks or would you stop and fix the cracks? The answer is the latter. We want to work on the foundation, taking our time, and filling in those cracks in the foundation, before we move on and build the rest of the house. A building is only as solid and strong as its foundation. Are you building your house on earth like a foolish man or on a rock like a wise man (Matthew 7:21-29 & Luke 6:46-49)? If your house was built on the wrong foundation or had no foundation, it will not be able to stand, when violent storms come. There will be trials and tribulations over the course of our life. You will only make it through the storm because your life was founded on the Word of God, obeying the Word of God, knowing, and trusting Jesus Christ/Yeshua, because of a strong, solid foundation. Jesus Christ/Yeshua “the Son of the Living God” is the foundation and cornerstone and each believer is a stone. Since many will stumble over him, Jesus Christ/Yeshua is referred to as “a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence” because they reject him or refuse to believe who He is (1 Peter 2:5-8). There can be no foundation other than Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 3:11). He is the foundation of our life. Are your congregation building their lives on God’s values or on “worldly pleasures” (1 John 2:15-17)?
Many adult believers have no or weak foundations. Once the adults have their own “personal spiritual awakening” by aligning their lives with the Word of God with a renewed mind and heart, then it will take on a ripple effect. It will cause healing and transformation in their children, families, communities, churches/synagogues & in their national leaders. Then the nations will be transformed and God will hear our earnest prayers.
Church/Synagogue Leaders
The Church has allowed their petty differences to divide them, which is part of Satan’s plan. Apostasy is running rampant in America and in many nations. Have you heard that scientists are targeting various religious denominations for human subject research without their informed consent? Recently in the news the U.S. Federal Government is proposing a bio-weapon that would destroy the part of the human brain associated with spirituality. You can read the entire article at http://www.pakalertpress.com/2012/08/10/us-developing-genocidal-bio-weaponsprominentauthor/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+pakalert+%28Pak+Alert+Press%29
Is the church being told that they will lose their 501(c) status, if you get involved in certain activities? Do you know that Hitler, a master manipulator and deceiver did this to the church in Germany? According to Dave Barton, there has been 1 church that has ever lost their status; you can read the truth about the church, state, and America’s history on his website at www.wallbuilders.com. (Note: If he is available, we will invite him to be a guest on our Ministry Mondays, which begins April 8th. America & International church/synagogue leaders are invited.)
In the November 24, 2012 Michael Carl’s article, Ugandan President Repents of Personal, National Sins 'We Confess Idolatry, Witchcraft, Political Hypocrisy, Dishonesty, Intrigue' states,
“While Museveni is being held as a model for Christian leaders, Dave Daubenmire, PT Salt Ministries’ president and founder and social commentator, said the problem for Western nations goes deeper than the political leaders.
The problem in the United States, he said, is the pastors.
“Sadly, I think our lack of repentance is the fault of the pulpit. Individual Christians are so awash in sin that they think politicians are merely better at sin than they are,” Daubenmire said.
“There is no fear of the Lord and we are getting essentially a two-kingdom message. We hear that the devil is the god of this world and that Jesus will even the score later,” Daubenmire said. “The problem is that most Christians are convinced that this world is in control of Satan and therefore are not interested in applying the kingdom principles for which Christ died.”

Here are 10 areas that God has revealed to Sister Peters:
- The Church has been silent or allowed the spirit of fear, while laws are passed, which violated the teachings of Jesus Christ/Yeshua. You can visit Mr. Barton's website www.wallbuilders.com to learn about the history of the America’s church. The Church has allowed the petty differences to divide them. Instead of concentrating on the fact that they worship "Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior" as Paul stated in 1 Corinthians 1:10-17 & Colossians 2:16-17.
- False prophets/teachers are deceiving many believers. Since many believers do not know the Word of God for themselves, they are not aware that they are being deceived. “Counterfeit preaching” is deceiving many believers. Matthew 4:24 states, "we should take heed in what we hear." It is time for Christians to be "bold as a lion", if the church is preaching counterfeit preaching, they will have 2 choices; they can find a new church or get a new pastor. This is for the salvation of their souls, which Satan would gladly want, but God wants even more.
- The Church has failed to make "disciples" to spread the gospel. Many believers cannot spread the gospel because they do not know the Word of God or they are not obeying the Word of God. They are not mediating and reading the Holy Bible daily. They cannot provide testimonies on how Jesus Christ has moved in their lives. How can believers testify to unbelievers to Jesus Christ/Yeshua, if they are not on fire for Him or they have never experienced any miracles, signs, or wonders for themselves?
- Many souls are lost to Satan. (This is the sadness one of all.)
- Apostasy is running rampant from the Jew and Gentile church/synagogue leaders down to the congregation. Many believers are sitting “on the fence” and have not totally submitted themselves to God. It is time for these Christians to recommit their lives to God.
- The believers continue to sin, without confessing, repenting and asking the Holy Spirit to help them to have complete victory over their sin. The church/synagogue leaders are not teaching on the subject.
- Many believers have left and have joined another religious denomination or they no longer attend church at all. Sadly, the Church has not reached out to these former churchgoers.
- The Church should be present outside the four corners of their buildings by partnering with others in the community and in the nation.
- The Church should follow what the early Apostles did together to help spread the full Gospel of God’s Kingdom and help God’s people. The church leaders should begin with teaching Jesus’/Yeshua’s Great Commission as stated in Mark 16:15-18.
- Many believers are “spiritual dead”. They are dying due to a lack of knowledge. The believers do not have a personal relationship with God or even know how to “cast out devils” or “lay hands on the sick to see them recover”. The believers are unaware that being a “good person” or doing “good works” will not get them into the gates of heaven.
Forgiving the Church
What happens to believers when the people that they thought they could trust have betrayed them or their loved ones? Some examples of betrayal include child sexual abuse, assault, physical abuse, emotional abuse, breaching confidentiality, fraud, and defamation of character. When trust is betrayed because of wrongdoings by church leaders or church members, anger set in. The victims are shocked because they cannot believe what has happened to them or their loved ones. They feel alone. They may stop attending that particular church and/or start attending another church. They may have lost his/her faith in God and switch to another faith or become an atheist because of the abuse. They feel confuse. Should they file lawsuits against the church? Is it biblically correct? The church abandons the victims. Many church leaders are not teaching on the subject of forgiveness or even the forgiveness process. Now the victims are torn about how to recover and heal from the abuse because they were never taught. Although it is the victim's responsibility to forgive, the church should take a greater responsibility to ensure that the victims can begin the forgiveness process. With forgiveness, there will be freedom and healing for all parties involved: the victims, the church leaders, and/or the church members.
Do you think that it is time for Americans to make atonement for our souls and sin before the “hedge of protection” is removed from America? Former President & gospel minister James A. Garfield stated, “We encourage people of faith to become involved in the civic arena, whether through prayer or direct involvement. As President and gospel minister James A. Garfield stated, "Now, more than ever, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness, and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave, and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature. . . . [I]f the next centennial does not find us a great nation. . . . it will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces."
It is time for the church to stop entertaining believers and start teaching the full Gospel of God’s Kingdom, including Jesus’/Yeshua’s Great Commission. Is there a group of church leaders, Jews and Gentiles, who want to break the curse of discord in the church so that they can unite because they worship the Lord Jesus Christ/Yeshua and put everything else aside?
The State of America: Is America Under Judgment?
America’s foundation is based upon Judea-Christian principles. On April 30, 2012, America celebrated the 223rd anniversary of the inauguration of the first President of the United States, George Washington. At his inauguration, seven distinctly religious activities were included in this first presidential inauguration that have been repeated in whole or part in every subsequent inauguration: (1) the use of the Bible to administer the oath; (2) solemnifying the oath with multiple religious expressions (placing a hand on the Bible, saying “So help me God,” and then kissing the Bible); (3) prayers offered by the president himself; (4) religious content in the inaugural address; (5) the president calling on the people to pray or acknowledge God; (6) church inaugural worship services; and (7) clergy-led prayers as stated in Dave Barton’s (www.wallbuilders.com) in his article “America’s Religious Heritage as Demonstrated in Presidential Inaugurations”. Dennis Kucinich, United States Congressman from Cleveland, Ohio wrote a very touching “Prayer for America”, which can be found at http://www.raven1.net/mcf/prayer-for-america.htm.
(This section was obtained from the article WND EXCLUSIVE 'The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment': U.S. in crosshairs Messianic rabbi reveals striking parallels between fall of ancient Israel, America You can view the entire article online at the above website http://www.wnd.com/2012/02/the-isaiah-910-judgment-u-s-in-crosshairs/)
“In Rabbi Jonathan Cahn’s book, The Harbinger: The Ancient Mystery That Holds the Secret of America’s Future” “(www.theharbingerwebsite.com), he states that America’s Leaders have uttered the words of Isaiah 9:10 “the bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycamores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars.” It is amazing how these few verses collate with what has happened at Ground Zero.
He compares this to the sycamore tree that was felled that day on 9/11. He says that a type of cedar tree was brought in to replace it. He quotes many journalists who described the scene as a pile of bricks. He also speaks of the huge hewn cornerstone which was quarried out of the Adirondack Mountains in New York and brought to Ground Zero as a cornerstone. Rabbi Cahn goes on to explain: “These words were first uttered by leaders in Israel and in response to a limited strike by Assyria on the lands of Zebulun and Naphtali – an attack the prophet makes clear is actually part of a limited judgment by God against apostasy. It wasn’t meant to destroy the nation, but to awaken it, according to most commentaries.”
He reveals other striking comparisons to what happened during the days of Isaiah against the Hebrew nation to that of what is happening to the American nation today. He says the scripture told of the early destruction of both nations. He feels that this scripture reveals what he calls “An ancient mystery that holds the secret of America’s future and the collapse of the global economy.” Rabbi Jonathan Cahn states, “Before its destruction as a nation, ancient Israel received nine harbingers, prophetic omens of warning,” he says. “The same nine harbingers are now manifesting in America with immediate ramifications for end-time prophecy. We are witnessing the rapid slight of American and western civilization away from God, away from its Judeo-Christian foundation, and away from God’s word and ways. And it’s not only the word “God” – but the words “under God” which are under attack. That’s also very significant – It’s a sign of a nation removing itself from any accountability, any responsibility, and any relationship to God or His Word”.
But, says Cahn, Israel didn’t take the cue. Instead, the response from the people in Isaiah 9:10 is one of defiance. The brick buildings were toppled, but they vowed to build bigger and better. The little sycamore trees may have been uprooted, but they vowed to plant bigger and better cedars in their place. They were defiant against God.
In an effort to bring the nation hope and reassurance on September 12, 2001, after the bombing of the World Trade Center Towers, former U.S. Senator Tom Daschle read from the Isaiah 9:10 passage. His career ended in a disaster. Rabbi Cahn says, “Daschle has no idea what he is doing here. He thinks he’s offering comforting words to a grief-stricken people, but he is actually embracing the spiritually defiant and arrogant words of the children of Israel, proclaiming the ancient and ominous vow of the leaders of that nation. He doesn’t realize it, but he is actually inviting more judgment on the nation.”
Then on the third anniversary of the explosion of the tower in 2004, John Edwards read the same passage – and he ended his career in disgrace. Rabbi Cahn says in his book, that Senators Daschle and Edwards did not have a clear understanding of what they were reading or doing. “

Here is the comment Shadow, President Obama gave in his first speech to a joint session of Congress in 2009:
"While our economy may be weakened and our confidence shaken, though we are living through difficult and uncertain times, tonight I want every American to know this,” Mr. Obama said. “We will rebuild, we will recover, and the United States of America will emerge stronger than before.”
In other words, Cahn says the nation is a defiant posture toward God. We will rebuild "without" God. Even if we have been humbled, we, in our pride, will make things better and become stronger.
"President Obama's declaration that we will rebuild, we will recover did NOT acknowledge "with God's grace" as many predecessors had done in making similar declarations - but it is in the same spirit of "self-will" as the speeches that directly cited the Isaiah passage."
Is America under judgment because of the prophetic words spoken by 3 America’s Leaders, where 2 have already fallen from grace? Is it a coincident that all 3 leaders are Democrats? They may not have known what they were reading and doing, but did the speech writers know? The Word of God has SUPERNATURAL POWER. Those prophetic words that were spoken should be renounced and reversed in Jesus’ name in a public setting by America’s National Leaders before it is too late. We pray that the National Leaders will confess, repent, ask for forgiveness so that reconciliation and healing can occur.
Is this event and Rabbi Jonathan Cahn book, “The Harbinger: The Ancient Mystery That Holds the Secret of America’s Future” a wake-up call for America and for all nations to either turn to God or turn back towards God before the “hedge of protection” is removed by Him? In Rabbi Cahn’s book, he discussed that Ancient Israel’s pride and failure to heed the harbinger caused them to have bigger and more potent attacks until they were destroyed. America had warnings up until now, but if Americans don’t humble themselves, submit to God, confess and repent of their sin, and turn towards Yeshua by faith then God/the Creator will remove the “hedge of protection” and America could be destroyed just like ancient Israel. Are you aware that several U.S. Founding Fathers issued National Public Day of Fasting, Humiliation, and Prayer Proclamations? You can read the actual historical documents of proclamations by entering “Fasting, Humiliation, and Prayer” in the search box at David Barton’s website: www.wallbuilders.com. Is there a remnant of faithful God's people who want to see America transformed back to God-centered values?
Will any National Leader Publicly Repent of Personal and Nation’s Sins like Ugandan President Museveni?
In the November 24, 2012 Michael Carl’s article, Ugandan President Repents of Personal, National Sins 'We Confess Idolatry, Witchcraft, Political Hypocrisy, Dishonesty, Intrigue' states,
“The Ugandan news site New Vision reports President Yoweri Museveni celebrated Uganda’s 50th anniversary of independence from Britain at the National Jubilee Prayers event by publicly repenting of his personal sin and the sins of the nation.
“I stand here today to close the evil past, and especially in the last 50 years of our national leadership history and at the threshold of a new dispensation in the life of this nation. I stand here on my own behalf and on behalf of my predecessors to repent. We ask for your forgiveness,” Museveni prayed.
“We confess these sins, which have greatly hampered our national cohesion and delayed our political, social and economic transformation. We confess sins of idolatry and witchcraft which are rampant in our land. We confess sins of shedding innocent blood, sins of political hypocrisy, dishonesty, intrigue and betrayal,” Museveni said.
“Forgive us of sins of pride, tribalism and sectarianism; sins of laziness, indifference and irresponsibility; sins of corruption and bribery that have eroded our national resources; sins of sexual immorality, drunkenness and debauchery; sins of unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred and revenge; sins of injustice, oppression and exploitation; sins of rebellion, insubordination, strife and conflict,” Museveni prayed.
Next, the president dedicated Uganda to God.
“We want to dedicate this nation to you so that you will be our God and guide. We want Uganda to be known as a nation that fears God and as a nation whose foundations are firmly rooted in righteousness and justice to fulfill what the Bible says in Psalm 33:12: Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. A people you have chosen as your own,” Museveni prayed.
“The Museveni prayer is a model for all Christian leaders in the world. The leaders of the West have declined in proportion to their degree of rejection of God,” Lively said.
Lively also believes Uganda will rise as a major African power as America continues to decline. He uses Britain as an example.
“Britain was at its height as a world power when it honored God as the Ugandan president has just done. America’s greatness has similarly diminished as we have shifted from a Christian to a secular-humanist country. But watch now for Uganda to be blessed by God for their desire to be His,” Lively said.

Unbelievers
As unbelievers, you have a role to play as well. If you are harming, persecuting, or are adversary to someone’s soul, then you are committing sin. Sin affects ALL OF US. Sin is not only about doing wrong, but sin is also not doing right. Will you turn away from your wicked behavior and turn towards Jesus/Yeshua? God loves you.
Here are some scriptures as they relate to sin:
- Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin (James 4:17).
- Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God (Galatians 5:19-22).
- Jesus states in John 16:9 “Of sin, because they believe not on me” and according to Revelation 21:8, “but the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back www.heavenisforreal.net
For a period of 23 hours, a young Ecuadorian girl named Angelica Zambrano was shown the Kingdoms of Heaven and Hell, and the Return of Christ. She witnessed Jesus weeping as He overlooked multitudes of souls lost forever, a world that has rejected Him, a Church that is mostly unprepared for Him, a people that have stopped witnessing to the lost, and an entertainment industry that even lures children to Satan. She witnessed many of our esteemed cultural icons suffering in the Pit; singers, entertainers, and even a pope. Angelica was also shown how the Kingdom of Heaven is all wonderfully prepared and ready, an unimaginable glorious place, where no evil exists. Though Jesus is ONLY coming back for a Holy People, and many of God’s children will NOT be ready on that day, and will be left behind in a world that will fall apart. Are you prepared? Visit http://www.divinerevelations.info/ for additional information about Angelica and others who experienced Heaven and Hell.

Which scenario describes you?
- I have not fully committed my life to Jesus/Yeshua or to anyone.
- I have tried to run my life on my own strength & I am tired.
- I have been running away from Jesus/Yeshua for a long time.
- God have blessed me even though I have not served Him.
- I have made a mess of my life and I do not know where to go from here.
A Believer’s Commitment Prayer
There is the English & Hebrew names in the prayer. You can pray it either way. Yeshua has a higher frequency than praying Jesus. There is no letter J in Hebrew. Let’s pray: Father in the name of Jesus/Yeshua I give thanks to you, Living and Eternal King for allowing me to wake up to enjoy another beautiful day that you created. I come before you as you humble daughter/son. I have something that I have to tell you. I am sorry, Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus/Yeshua.
I rebuke Satan. (Here are several scenarios that you can say and select the one for you or make up your own):
- I have not fully committed my life to you & I want to do so now.
- I have tried to run my life on my own strength & I am tired.
- I have been running away from you for a long time and I can no longer do it my way.
- You have blessed me even though I have not served you.
- I have made a mess of my life and I do not know where to go from here.
It is written, "Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus/Yeshua every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ/Yeshua is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." It is written, "Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."
Jesus Christ/Yeshua, you have forgiven us of our sins-past, present, & future, but it is written, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” I am a sinner & because of my sins have opened the spiritual pathways for demonic spirits, evil spirits and demons to cause havoc in my life. I have rebelled against the Word of God. It is written, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. By grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God. Not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9).
I confess and repent of my intentional & unintentional sins. I confess of the sins of
(You can think of the sins that you committed and you can ask the Holy Spirit to help you, just say them and do not worry if you don't know all of them, because He does. Here’s the list: Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin. (James 4:17). According to Jesus not believing in Him is sin as stated in John 16:9. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death (Revelation 21:8). Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, & such like; of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God (Galatians 5:19-22).)
that I committed & I repent of those sins that I committed intentionally and unintentionally in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. I ask you for your forgiveness, Jesus/Yeshua.
If I don’t forgive others, my Heavenly Father will not forgive me. In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I FORGIVE OTHERS in my past that harmed me, persecuted me, or were adversaries to my soul. In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I FORGIVE OTHERS who are presently hurting/harming me, persecuting me, or are adversaries to my soul. In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I FORGIVE (name of the individual ) FOR (such-and-such).
OR
If you have difficulty forgiving someone, you can say that “I ask the Holy Spirit to help me with forgiving (name of the individual ) for (such-and-such), but I will be moved by faith & say what Jesus/Yeshua said while on the cross, “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.”
In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I FORGIVE MYSELF for those that I hurt or I was an adversary to their souls. In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I ask you, Jesus Christ/Yeshua to FORGIVE ME FOR (such-and-such).
It is written in 1 Thessalonians 4:6, “that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you.” In the name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I do not have to revenge any wronged that has been done to me, but I am moved by faith to obey Your Word.
For all these sins, God of pardon forgive me, atone me. In Jesus’/Yeshua’s name, wash me thoroughly and cleanse me of all my sins and unrighteousness. I am open to receive the blood of Jesus/ Yeshua and I ask the blood of Jesus Christ/Yeshua cleanse my sins in my mind, heart, soul, body and surrounding my spirit in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. I am cleansed of all of my sins in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. You are such a merciful God that You remember my sins no more.
Lord Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I ask you to baptize me with the gift of the Holy Spirit and fire. In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, the anointing of the Holy Spirit and fire is let loose in my life. I ask the Holy Spirit to help me to defeat the temptation of any sin and to help me to have victory over all sin in the name of Jesus/Yeshua.
Repeat 3 times, while inhaling & exhaling: In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, breathe life back into me.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! I am free and my old life is dead. My heart and my mind are renewed in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. In the name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, search my heart, open my spiritual ears and my spiritual eyes & show me areas in my life, which are not pleasing to you. I am a new person in Jesus Christ/Yeshua so provide me with new thoughts, ideas, & desires in.
Now the God of Hope fill me with all joy & peace in believing, that you may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. You are my rock, my refuge, my fortress, my defender, my vindicator, my redeemer, my healer, & my deliverer. In the Name of Jesus Christ/Yeshua, I believe and stand on the Word of God, because it is the only truth.
It is written, “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler; and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thous trust; his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.” (Psalm 9:1-4, 7)
In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, I put on the whole armor of God to stand against the wiles of the devil. I am covered with the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith to fight against the fiery darts of the enemy, the sword of the spirit, which is the Word of God, the only truth because "all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work", the girdle of truth, & the sandals of the gospel of peace. I am fully protected and ready for spiritual battle.
You have sanctified us with Your commandments and commanded us to follow them. I praise & worship you, God. I give you all the glory. You are a righteous God. It is written for “the Lord gives wisdom, out of his mouth comes knowledge and understanding”. I ask you Lord that I receive wisdom. I trust in you, God with all of my heart and lean not on my own understanding. The Lord is my helper & I will not fear what man shall do unto me in the name of Jesus/Yeshua. In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, it is written “He shall call upon me & I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him & honor him.”
It is written in Matthew 18:19-20, “Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
I should pray for Jerusalem. In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, it is written, “Pray for the peace in Jerusalem. May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls & prosperity within your palaces. For the sake of my brethren & companions, I will now say, Peace be within you. Because of the House of the LORD our God & I will see you good.” (Psalm 122:6-9)
In the name of Jesus/Yeshua, it is written, “Jesus/Yeshua replied, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy and nothing should harm you in the name of Jesus’/Yeshua.” (Luke 10:19)In Jesus’/Yeshua’s name, the power of Jesus/Yeshua has defeated the power of Satan.
(This is your time to talk to Your Father through Jesus/Yeshua tell Him your feelings, thoughts, & fears. You can pray for others. Ask Him to intervene on your behalf. You can pray for anything. )
It is written "and all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive." I thank you Lord God for answering my prayers. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! It is finished. It is finished. It is finish in Jesus/Yeshua’s name.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
(Now Praise Him... you play a song, praise Him with words, or read a Psalm 92, 139 or Psalm 51.)
Welcome Saints to the kingdom of God! Please start meditating on the Word of God and tell others that you accepted Jesus/Yeshua as your Lord and Savior. Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you to a God-fearing church/synagogue leader.
We Should Learn From the Past
There is an amazing article about the head of a pharmaceutical company, Professor David Horrobin, who came down with cancer and instead of using the drugs his company and many others have made for cancer; he opted for alternatives that are considered quackery by mainstream medicine. In the article, Dr. Horrobin comes clean. “Drug trials are pointless …. and unethical.” He goes on to say that volunteers have little chance of recovery. The full article is at http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article1808.htm.
The death factory at Auschwitz was a closely guarded secret of the Third Reich. Their story was so unbelievable that no one would believe that the Germans had everything streamlined. They were looking at the obituaries of their friends, relatives, and people that they knew. The Germans were very good at deception. Watch the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) documentary, Secrets of the Dead: Escape from Auschwitz at http://www.pbs.orglwnetlsecrets/episodes/escape-from-auschwitz/S.
In another Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) documentary, Swimming In Auschwitz, depicts the stories of 6 survivors of the Holocaust, one of the survivors said, “We made a big mistake. We never spoke up.” As a result of them not speaking up, over six million Jewish men, women, and children were tortured, executed, and killed.
Do we want history to repeat itself? Many people are doing what is right by speaking out against those who are abusing their authority and exposing their sin. Everyone will be held accountable for their actions, as well as, their lack of actions.
