CONCERNING PORT CITES, HOUSTON, GALVESTON AND HURRICANE RITA
By Chuck D. Pierce
September 21, 0025
 
I am writing you because of your heart to intercede.  I use the word
³intercede² because these are times of standing until we see victory coming
into our atmosphere.  These are times when the prophetic voice coming from
the prophets must mature into accuracy, reflecting the urgency of times and
seasons. Shakings will continue.  I saw three cities that were key for
prayer this year: New Orleans, Houston and Los Angeles.  Therefore, I
visited all three cities earlier this year to pray, speak and encourage the
Body.
 
Our hearts have and continue to cry out for those who have been evacuated
and dispersed from their homes from the Gulf Coast Crisis of Hurricane
Katrina.  Texas has assimilated 250,000 evacuees from the disaster along the
Gulf Coast.  In Denton, there are several facilities that are being used to
house the evacuees.  Pam, my wife, has been designated from Glory of Zion to
be our liaison.   She has met with Red Cross officials and FEMA so the
church can assist the evacuees.  Pam called while I was in Rome at the
beginning of September and said, ³You prophesied that refuge cities needed
to arise NOW.  Now that this is happening, you need to get home and help us
administrate this work.²   I am assisting with everything when requested
besides cooking. We have three families to help get placed and will be
serving dinner again tonight.  This has been a time that has produced joy in
our people as we have served those with greater need.  Also, we have been in
touch with our Prayer Network Leadership and apostolic connections along the
Gulf Coast States. We are sending support as appropriate.  Now with
Hurricane Rita approaching, I am reminded of a word that the Lord spoke in
February of this year. I am also including prayer revelation that Cindy
Jacobs just called and gave to us. I love Houston and the Gulf.  Let¹s allow
our faith to rise. Let¹s stand and cry out for the ³tempest¹s fury to pass
and damage and destruction to be lessened.²
 
DANGER IN PORT CITIES
After the 50 State Tour, the Lord instructed me to go to the key Port Cities
of our nation this year.  This has been a personal journey.  I have now
visited most of the major ports in our nation, including Laredo, Texas - the
largest inland port.  I have yet to visit Seattle, but will be there in
October.  The Lord instructed me to go to port cities by saying, ³There is
going to be some entry by the enemy into port cities this year, and this is
going to cause destruction like we have not seen before.²
 
On February 20, 2005, I spoke in Houston.  Here is a portion of the word
that came forth: ³Houston is a target for the enemy because you are a great
city, a great port, a great city for revival, a great city for commerce.
You are like Tyre in the Bible.  There is a crisis coming toward Houston
that will move the city into a different dimension of God¹s presence.²
 
And the Lord said to me, ³Houston is going to be a place where My angels are
flooding in this year.  They are going to flood in, and come in through
every gate this year.  My angels are coming in through the port areas of
Houston.  Go to every port point this year and invite the angelic forces in.
If you will do that over the next ten months you will see change by the end
of the year all across the city.  I am ready for the angels to come in.  I
have chosen Houston as the port city where I will rest My presence in the
midst of a strange happening in this nation.  I will cause My presence to be
established in this city.  I will cause enemies of My Spirit who have
resisted My presence in the past to welcome My presence this year.²
 
The Lord then said, ³There¹s a shift that¹s gone on here. You¹ve shifted.
You are (now) moving from a heavenly realm. You have moved out of a vacuum
of unbelief.  It wasn¹t darkness - it was a void ­ something that has been
confused, that had no form, that looked like it would remain formless from
now until a future time.  You¹ve moved that out of the atmosphere here.  Now
you have brought into the atmosphere a faith dimension that has restored My
covenant back to My people in this city.²  (The Lord then said that Houston
would shift in July.)  ³Prepare yourself, for you will influence the nation
in a time of crisis.  You¹ve endured the testing of covenant with each
other.  You¹ve watched each other make horrible mistakes and yet you
covenant with Me, and My blood has overcome those mistakes. You have watched
some let go of things.  You watched some go in wrong directions.  But I¹ve
brought it back full circle.  You have watched certain things end.  Don¹t
judge how they ended; I was ending certain things so I can begin again. You
have endured a covenant-breaking structure that has resisted My move in this
city. You have endured and prevailed against a covenant-breaking spirit that
overcame past generations.  Now you have overcome that spirit.  Just as
Moses made a mistake and I restored his call, I¹ve now come back full circle
and said, ŒNow it¹s My Time!¹  Follow Me in a new way, confront your enemies
in a new way, (and) move forward in a new way.  For I am going to rest in
the city Š and you will know My Presence has come to rest in this city.²
 
The Lord also said, ³And you will know I¹m going to shake Galveston in a way
that it has not been shaken since the beginning of the last century.  But
this is a time for Me to come full circle.  And this time, Galveston will
begin to run forward into My presence in Houston.  And that which is
resisting My presence in Galveston will be overtaken.  I am raising up the
Body in Houston to receive an outpouring of My presence. As I flood the
people of Galveston to Houston, I will return them with a flood of My
presence. 
 
 Faith is now your guide.  For faith will explode in the very hearts of this
city and ten surrounding smaller cities of this area.  This will be a faith
explosion that will begin to occur because victory has entered Houston and
you have gathered to receive a new anointing of grace. Walk forth with Me
from this place, for I am dressing you in victory.  You are turning upward.
And although you do not know where this updraft will take you, ride the wind
with Me and the waves will not overtake you.²
 
In I Chronicles 21 we find a key story that I shared.  In a time of war,
David numbered Israel.  We can see here that David had lost some measure of
faith. This faith dimension shifted him into a place of just looking at the
overall earthly army instead of seeing the heavenly help that was available.
Joab said, ³Why have you done this?  God can do with small as well as
large,² and yet the king¹s word prevailed against Joab.  What David did was
to disconnect the movement of Israel¹s army from the Host of Heaven.  His
fear and reliance on his own strength and armies discounted and stopped the
Host of Heaven from moving. The Lord would say to Houston, ³Do not look
around you in your time of need - call for heavenly help!² God gave David a
choice. The prophet said, ³Choose for yourself ­ three years of famine
(which I believe doesn¹t work for Houston since November [2004] broke three
years of famine, and the barrenness I felt before is no longer dwelling over
Houston)ŠOR you can have three months to be defeated by your foes with the
sword of your enemies overtaking you (which means three months when you are
just going through the hell of your life, and the Lord is going to let every
demon that¹s tried to overtake you do so) Š OR else you can let Me deal with
you for three days.² David said, ³Well, I¹d rather have You and anything You
can do for three days - because I love You and trust You - than to let man
even come near me.  Lord, I know you love me; I am going to choose you!²
This forced David into a strategic place for his future.  ³I would say to
this nation, ŒYou are going to go through three days of tremendous trial.
In the midst of the confusion that is going on in this nation that will be
lasting three days, I will make Myself known.¹² (I do not believe that this
has happened yet.  I think this is linked with a financial crisis ahead).
 
FROM CINDY JACOBS
September 21, 2005 Š As we are poised on the threshold of launching the 40
Days of Prayer at Christ for the Nations in Dallas for miracles to be
restored, there is a hurricane named Rita nipping at our heels.  God wants
to release a flood of his glory and power, and Satan wants to release
flood-tides of destruction.  The name Rita comes from the name ³Margaret,²
which means Pearl of Great Price.  It happens to be my middle name. In
asking the Lord about how to pray about this hurricane, several things came
to me.  First of all, Texas is the home of President Bush.  This is a storm
that is meant to mock him.  I also heard the Lord say that there are many
Muslim leaders who will say that destruction to Texas is the judgment of
Allah upon the American president.  Let¹s pray that God will turn this storm
from its path of destruction.  Ask God to dissipate its strength.  Declare
that all powers of darkness that are fueling it will be bound.
 
A NEW SONG FOR NOW: FUTURES AND FINALES (Braving Storms¹ Waves)!
I always watch very carefully to see how the sound of the Lord comes forth.
I also try to listen carefully to the generation that is rising up.  In
these trying times I have wondered how the next generation would be
processing many of these crises.  Aaron Smith, lead singer of STRATEGY OF A
LAUNCH, just wrote a new song that is probably one of the most incredible,
worshipful, powerful sounding songs that I have heard for this hour.  We are
producing Finales and Futures (Braving Storms¹ Waves).  Very seldom do I
hear something that produces an emotional release like this song.  However,
it also releases a sound of sustaining strength in the midst of the waves of
change that are being produced by the storms of life at this time.  When I
listened to this song, I said, ³Lord, put this deep in my spirit so I can
get to the end of my journey this hour.²  You can order this for $5 by
calling (888) 965-1099 or (940) 382-7231 (MC and Visa only).
 
Blessings,
