A Call to Battle



We are at all out war. Our nation is under severe attack. If we want to protect our children and their future we have to put on our gear and get in the battle. We must seek God's face like never before. It's time to come out of hiding and stand before the Throne of God boldly.

The weapons we use are not guns and tanks. Our arsenal is fasting and prayer. We are battling principalities and rulers that are in dark places. They are oppressing and working diligently through people to subvert and hide the truth that they want to destroy the freedom that God has blessed us with. They are stealing our young people and infiltrating the church en mass. Their goal is to remove all forms of righteousness and any trace of godliness from our land. If the church rises up to defend our land we will win because God is on our side, who can be against us? He will restore what the locust have eaten and we will be given a chance at a fresh new beginning. Let's do this for our future generations before it’s too late!

We need to especially zero in on the spirits that are being used to attack these areas:

Our President Trump and his cabinet
Our judicial system and attorney general Barr
China that is being strategically used right now and it's future planned attacks.

I've written the prayer below as a guideline to help us stand together in unity with one heart and mind:

Dear Father, 


I pray that the Spirit of wisdom, revelation and the knowledge of Jesus Christ would be poured out on your people. Flood our hearts with the light of your revelation for which we have been called for this time. Speak truth to every believer.


Wake up your children. Let everyone who is godly pray to you while you may be found and sing sing of deliverance over us and over all those who will come into your Kingdom (Psalm 37). Reach them all wherever they are. Visit every household with Fire. Usher them all onto the highway of holiness. 


We repent and take accountability for our actions and beliefs that have caused us to turn from you Father and we turn our face back to you. Heal our land!! (2 Chron 7:14)


May the fire of the Holy Spirit consume every evil and chaff in our lives and in the lives of those in leadership and may you direct the hearts of our leaders like a water course to be bent toward your perfect will. (Prov 21:1)


Bind up evil so that it will lose  all influence and power and may your righteousness prevail and reign in our land and in this world. 


Demolish every evil thought and argument  that is set up against You and bring it to justice. Bring every agenda that is not of you into captivity to the obedience of Christ. ( 2 Cor 10:5)


We pray for the church around the world, especially in China for the pulling down of evil strongholds and every high thing that exalts itself against You ( 2 Cor 10:3). We forbid the evil spirits that are controlling China to come into our country and we pray against  any new disease that they  are planning to release here. 


May your anointing and yolk breaking power be upon all of our leaders, especially our president and our judicial branch. Give our justice system eyes to see in the spirit realm. 


We pray for justice and righteousness in our land and we cut at the root of evil and the present dark principalities and  powers that are controlling our country that are at work to remove our freedom. We pray that all indictments against evil persons are released so that Justice will be served and we pray that Roe vs Wade be reversed to break the curse that it brought to our land. 


Foil the plans of the enemy to corrupt our voting system. 


We pray against the spirit of division and racism that is dividing our nation and pray for your Spirit of unity and love to be released. We pray against the spirits of fear and anger that are tormenting people and for your Spirit of peace, a sound mind and self control  to be released. 


Empower your people to stand up firmly for Godly principles and protect them and their families from the enemy. 


We have been given the Keys to your Kingdom and  been sent as your ambassadors here on earth. We have the authority in Jesus Christ so we take these keys and release your righteousness and power to overcome the power of the evil One and we take back this land that we have been given because of your favor. Release the angelic powers of heaven to do warfare on our behalf. May your Kingdom come in our land and on the earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

The Promised Land


When we are born again of the Spirit we are immediately moved into eternity because we have been restored to the One and only source of Eternal Life, God the Creator. We are not required to work to get there or to remain there. Our salvation is not based on works or perfect obedience because we all fail. It is based on having faith and trust in Jesus Christ alone.

As believers we all have our weaknesses. Scripture makes it clear that Moses was a great man of faith yet even he had a weak moment when he disobeyed God and struck the rock in anger. He saw the Promised Land but never was able to enter it in his life here on earth. All sin is lack of faith. It's lack of trusting God and falling back into doing things our own way. There is only one good way and that is God's way.

God doesn't just spring us out of the jail that we put ourselves in when we sin so that we can go out and keep sinning more. His desire is for us to do Life with Him in His Kingdom of perfection and goodness. He sets us free from sin for one reason and that is so that we can once again be in a personal relationship with Him. He didn't create us to live life apart from Him. He created us to be His partners in life. He gives us rules and instructions on how to do life in His Kingdom so that we will flourish no matter what our circumstances are in this life.

Make no mistake. Even though the consequences of sin have been dealt with sin can still cause problems for believers. But God did more than just take care of the punishment for our sin. He did a remarkable thing when he sent His Son into the world to remedy the problem of the sin that separates us from Him. He set us free from the power that it had over us so that when we walk in His Spirit it no longer has the same kind of power it once had. When we are born into His family and His Kingdom we get a whole new fresh start in life only this time we have the indwelling power of God in us to do it not only a better way but the BEST way.

When we are in Christ by faith we never walk independently again. I believe the Promised Land is a picture of our Faith walk in Christ. Some Christians live victoriously and have an abundant Life because they grow in faith and do not wander from it, some fail in life miserably and the rest are somewhere in between. Where we are on this spectrum all hinges on where we are in our relationship with Christ.

Forty years represents a generation. Every human is from a generation so I believe it represents all mankind. Everyone longs for a good life, a better life. I believe the Promised Land is a picture of that better life that anyone can have when they walk and do life with God. It's a picture of the Kingdom of God on earth. We don't automatically enjoy a rich spiritual prosperous life when we are born into God's Kingdom. We have to grow and learn how to walk out our lives by faith. Many people never get there because their faith never grows. Israel is a picture of this. They could have gotten to the Promised Land very quickly but instead they were kept in the desert of wandering because of their lack of faith in God. It is a picture of people that keep wandering around in the world never letting go of old habits. As long as we wander around clinging to our old ways and the things of this world we will never enter into the rich fullness of God's Kingdom here on earth. Do you want the abundant life that God created you to have while you live out your life on this Earth? It's yours to have if you walk in the Spirit.
