Dear Friends:<BR>
<BR>
We must pray and intercede on behalf of those traumatized along the Gulf Coast areas. We are entering into a level of warfare in the earth that is beyond our present mindset and paradigm. In these seven years of war, God has been preparing us for what is ahead. We are ending the fourth year and approaching the fifth year. We need supernatural grace to deal with lawless structures in days ahead. I want to be real honest, when I wrote <I>The Future War of the Church</I> explaining the anti-Christ system and lawlessness, many criticized and scoffed at the concept of the level of warfare that we would be encountering in days ahead. <BR>
<BR>
Please, please prepare yourself for these next three years. Use the prayer points below to begin to engage spiritual forces in ways that we have never understood in the past. The following prophetic word is from the revelation that came forth on August 12 in our FirstFruits Gathering built around covenant alignment.<BR>
<BR>
<B><I>To the United States of America …</I></B><I> “Know that today this nation is being realigned. Get ready, for refuge cities will begin to arise throughout this land. They will begin to rise up from state to state to state all along the East coast, all along the Gulf, and all along the West coast. I am raising up refuge cities. Florida is resisting the development of My plan, but I will cause a strong remnant to arise in this state. I AM even beginning to train those in cities that will know how to move forward. Many of you have wondered: ‘Why am I not involved here or there - why do I seem to be shelved?’ I will begin to assign you to be a part of those groups that will aid My next move in the earth. This will come because of great shakings, floods and disease structures that are forming. I AM assigning you now to spread My Good News. I AM developing ears to hear My grace. There is a shifting now of compassion and mercy, for I need My healers to be ready to be released throughout the land. <BR>
<BR>
To those in law enforcement and public authority, lawlessness is beginning to rise and escalate. Many of you who have prayed will become discouraged as you see statistics change. Lift up your heads. This is the beginning of dividing and exposing the real source of covenant breaking and violence that is seething in this land. I will give you strategies over how to defeat major lawless structures. These strategies are but temporary measures, so remain on alert from this day forward.”<BR>

Cry out for angelic forces to visit individuals that are crying out in these areas. Ask for angels to HELP in this structure of lawlessness that is operating in this part of the earth.</SPAN></FONT><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Lucida Grande, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><FONT SIZE="4"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'>Pray for those that are serving as refuge cities – Houston, Baton Rouge, and others.</SPAN></FONT><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>
</SPAN></FONT><LI><FONT FACE="Lucida Grande, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><FONT SIZE="4"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:13.0px'>In the midst of trauma, always let God show you areas in our lives that can be purified. Bind condemnation and ask God to purify us where we have been weak in the past. In intercession, what you identify … purify. Ask God to purify areas where we have allowed the enemy to take control.

<I>Yes, this situation could be a result of the Gaza Strip crisis in Israel. Yes, this situation could be a result of the spiritistic decadence that goes on in New Orleans. Yes, this situation could be a result because of the slave entry through New Orleans. Yes, this situation could be a result of the gambling along the coast line. Yes, this could be because of the Circuit Court System in New Orleans taking its stand on behalf of abortion in the land</I>. <B>However, the issue right now is to let the Spirit of God rise up within you and for you begin to cry out in the midst of this situation in a way that you have never cried out before.</B> Job 22:30 says, “<I>He will even deliver the one [for whom you intercede] who is not innocent; yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”</I> (AMP) <BR>
<BR>
Once you have lived through severe trauma, you realize that pointing a finger is not necessary. You actually realize that it is just the grace of God that any of us are not in these situations. Pray that the “spirit of man withstand this major wound and infirmity in this nation” (Prov 18:14).<BR>
<BR>
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE ONLY RESTRAINER OF EVIL IN THE EARTH REALM. Here is another portion of the prophetic word that came forward in our August FirstFruits Gathering on covenant. <B><I>To the CHURCH … </I></B>“<I>I will reverse cessation thinking. Many have held onto a dead religion. Let go of old religious patters and embrace My resurrection and power. The wind of My power will begin to blow and it will not be able to be explained. There will be a desire for My Spirit. Those that do not repent of a religion that denies My Spirit in the earth will not embrace My covenant plan or people in the future. I have chosen Israel as the deciding factor in the earth. Those who do not acknowledge Israel’s place in the earth will not understand the place that I have prepared for them in days ahead.” </I>If there is one thing that we need to ask the Lord to forgive us for – it is the quenching and grieving of Holy Spirit in the earth.<BR>
