Dear PTH Intercessors \/ Friends,<\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy and I arrived back in the USA the evening of July 15th. On the 16th, we flew early in the morning from Atlanta, GA to Washington DC for a day trip to pray for our own country.\u00a0 And would you believe, we saw the darndest thing! \u2026 Jesus was at the capitol!\u00a0 \u201cCapitol Jesus!\u201d\u00a0 I wish that I had captured a picture of it, but a man had just removed Him (the life size model of Jesus) standing on the sidewalk of the capitol building and packed him in the back of his mini van. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, that might sound odd and it may look like He has been removed – \u201cJesus left the capitol\u201d \u2026 but I am here to tell you – NOT SO!\u00a0 The Lord gave Nancy a powerful word regarding America and the \u201cinside scoop\u201d of what is going on within the walls of the capitol building.\u00a0 I think you will be very encouraged to not lose hope for America and continue to pray mightily for the decisions our leaders are encountering.\u00a0 Yes, your prayers matter!\u00a0 The Lord gave Nancy a very revitalizing word about your prayers for our country and its governmental leaders. <\/span><\/p>\n

While in D.C., we had 6 hours to prayer walk the places the Lord gave Nancy:\u00a0 The White House, U.S. Treasury, U.S. Customs & Borders, IRS, FBI, Dept. of Justice, Federal Trade Commission, Capitol Building, & Supreme Court.<\/span><\/p>\n

We walked and prayed, stopping at each targeted building.\u00a0 The Capitol was much more specific.\u00a0 We stood at the eastern side of the capitol and repented; Again using the emblems of the 21 link chain, oil, red ribbon trimmed with gold, a heart, a dime, and the scriptures describing the 21 characteristic of a hypocrite and the 21 things which men will do in the last days (Matt. 23:2-33 & 2 Tim. 3:2-5).\u00a0\u00a0 Then the outpouring! \u2026. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Lord showed Nancy two tables:\u00a0 Each table with groups of people.\u00a0 The one side was filled with lots of beautifully packaged gifts and those in front of the gifts were happily smiling, yet behind their backs they had their fingers crossed.\u00a0 On the other side \u2026 no gifts, but people full of peace and a pure hearts with opened hands.\u00a0 This side also was both men and women (but mostly men)\u2026. older people – \u201cthe mature\u201d.\u00a0 Yet, this side was also full of battle wounds and bandages from heat to toe \u2026 including their backs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy\u2019s initial thought was that the gifts were from the Lord, but it wasn\u2019t settling right in her spirt.\u00a0 When she questioned the Lord, He said the gifts are \u201cpay offs for positions \u2026 kickbacks for personal gain.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 Those with out the gifts are those leaders who are stationed to be steadfast.\u00a0 They could have left their political office long ago because of such unfairness, yet they chose to hold their post and protect and defend the nation of America.\u00a0 They are chose to lay down their lives for righteousness and not personal gain \u2026 or personal gifts! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do your prayers matter?\u00a0 The Lord said pray for these soldiers who are wounded in battle but are standing their posts because it is the right thing \u2026 the righteous thing to do!\u00a0 Pray that they are strengthened and encouraged to be bold and strong!\u00a0\u00a0 Pray their hope and strength in renewed and refreshed!\u00a0 Pray that their eyes of understanding be wide open!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

As we were walking away from the capitol, Nancy had a vision of thousands upon thousands of fiery missiles hitting D.C., multiple missiles from every direction, but mostly from the west.\u00a0\u00a0 Nancy was like \u201cOh no!\u201d \u2026 but the Lord said those are flaming missiles of prayers!\u00a0 Wow!<\/span><\/p>\n

Not by might, nor power, but by HIS Spirit (Zech. 4:6) \u2026. this is not a struggle of flesh and blood but of spiritual darkness in the heavenly places (Eph. 6:12).<\/span><\/p>\n

I was reminded of Gideon\u2019s dilemma in Judges chapter 6.\u00a0 The Lord told Gideon to \u201cgo in your strength and deliver\u2026Have I not sent you?\u201d (vs. 14).\u00a0 Yet Gideon reminded the Lord his family was the least.\u00a0 And, not only did God choose the \u201cleast\u201d he also took the least and refined them to even fewer in number (Chap. 7).\u00a0 This God of Gideon is STILL ON HIS THRONE today!\u00a0 \u2026 and HE is OUR God!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

Saints, \u201cGideons” \u2026 keep praying \u2026 the Lord has chosen you so that HE can demonstrate His power!\u00a0 It is hard to comprehend, but Gideon\u2019s army of a mere 300 defeated an army described with numbers\u00a0 like this:\u00a0 an army as numerous as locust \u2026 camels without numbers \u2026 as numerous as the sands on the seashore (Judges 6:12).\u00a0 Imagine yourself standing with a few of your trusted friends and your standing against your entire city \u2026 who wins the battle?\u00a0 By appearance of the world, it is not you and your friends \u2026 BUT God says it is the few whom HE has chosen to win \u2026 not because of their power – but HIS power!\u00a0 And if God be for us, who can be against us? (Ro. 8:31).\u00a0 Only by HIS WORD; His Spirit! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, be encouraged!\u00a0 The Lord also told Nancy (and repeated Himself several times) \u201cI love America!\u201d\u00a0 I don\u2019t think He was repeating Himself because Nancy didn\u2019t hear Him; \u2026. she did – the first time He said it!\u00a0 I think He wanted to emphasis the fact that He loves America \u2026 The nation build on the foundation of Himself! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Stand firm at your post and pray for our leaders – for those with their hands opened AND for those with fingers crossed \u2026 because like Gideon – God will deliver!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Jerusalem\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I haven\u2019t had a chance to send out a report about our time an Israel.\u00a0 However, Nancy had been texting notes to her husband, Henry regarding our day.\u00a0 Thus, I thought you might enjoy reading reports from Henry that he was sending out to some intercessors regarding our time in Israel. <\/span><\/p>\n

\nWednesday, July 01, 2015 11:26 AM<\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy and Sarah arrived in Tel Aviv at 2:00 pm Israel time (3 am Alaska time \u2013 7 pm Hong Kong time)<\/span>
\nPassed through customs and immigration with no problems.<\/span>
\nDriver and taxi were there to pick them up.<\/span>
\nFlight was very \u201ceasy\u201d 4 hours.<\/span>
\nThey expressed how much God has been pouring forth amazing favor over them through the entire time of this summer ministry.<\/span>
\nThey had dinner, walked around taking care of a few errands, and have now gone to bed for much needed rest.<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nFYI: Nancy did express once more, a heavy sadness for the people of Russia; no details yet but deeply heartfelt.<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\n_________________________________________________________________________________________<\/span><\/p>\n

On Jul 2, 2015, at 12:58 AM:<\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy and Sarah are going to be resting until the end of Shabbat (the Sabbath Day) [Saturday at Sundown]<\/span>
\nNancy and are asking for the intercessors to join with them in prayer for Israel and Israel\u2019s leaders.<\/span>
\nThey are also asking for prayer that the Holy Spirit would give them revelation that they may be praying the will of God at all times!<\/span>
\nHave been researching their travel to the Valley of Elah (David and Goliath [and much more])<\/span>
\n________________________________________________________________________<\/span>
\nOn Jul 2, 2015, at 10:42 PM:<\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy and Sarah are already beginning to catch up on their rest.\u00a0 First night they slept 12 hours straight through!<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nPlease join with me to pray for Nancy and Sarah and the battle(s) at hand in Israel. <\/span>
\nThese next few days, God is blessing Nancy and Sarah with a divine time of peace and rest so as to effectively pray and listen for His revelation,<\/span>
\nBut now is not the time for the watchmen to rest!<\/span>
\nRather it is the time to pray for Nancy and Sarah, that God would prepare them, filling then with an increased impartation of Holy Spirit wisdom, power and stamina, so they will be prepared as they go forth as kingdom people in Jesus name.<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nThis is also a time that prayer should be lifted up for one another, that we would continue to be effective for the kingdom in Jesus name as watchmen and intercessors\u2026..<\/span>
\nAnd we would not grow weary of well doing during the upcoming times of prayer.<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nPlease be aware\u2026..All of the countries so far have been a \u201cwarm-up\u201d.\u00a0 Israel, and especially Jerusalem, \u00a0is like no other place on earth.<\/span>
\nIt is profoundly intense. \u00a0There are spirits of all manner, some are very ancient and deeply entrenched.<\/span>
\nAs watchmen of the Lord who are standing in the gap, we must be ever vigilant and spiritually sensitive to the Holy Spirit\u2019s leading.<\/span>
\nThank you for your prayers. Blessings your brother in Christ, Henry \u00a0<\/span>
\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/span>
\nOn Jul 4, 2015, at 11:22 AM:<\/span><\/p>\n

I am forwarding comments and a word from Nancy.<\/span>
\nI am also forwarding a Liz\u2019s e-mail with comments, and a dream.<\/span>
\nI have not tried to interpret these.\u00a0 If you sense a leading, please forward what you are seeing and hearing.<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nPlease continue to lift up Nancy and Sarah, but also one another in prayer.\u00a0 I have had three different reports of very distractive circumstances (illnesses and family issues) that are trying to get in the way of the commitment to pray.\u00a0 I speak as though this were a spirit\u2026..I believe it to be so\u2026..an angry spirit of distraction attacking each one so as to weaken, bit by bit the group who are praying.\u00a0 This is becoming more apparent as the Nancy and Sarah begin to minister and fulfill the call in Israel. Just as David\u2019s mighty men (warrior\u2019s in their own right) formed around their king to hold him up, so we shall in prayer, come around Nancy and Sarah to see God\u2019s assignment for Israel l completed. I would say to the warriors of prayer, praise God that we are found worthy to suffer in various ways for His kingdom advancement and glory. When the enemy comes to try to distract you, lift up the name of Jesus and proclaim from the heights, if God is for me \u2013 who can be against me! and in the power of the Holy Spirit declare your victory over satan, you devil get behind me in Jesus\u2019 name for you are getting in the way of God\u2019s purposes!<\/span>
\nIn the days ahead \u2026. as Nancy related earlier in the journey \u2026 pray hard, be believing, completely convinced that it is making a difference.<\/span>
\nAmen\u2026..your brother in Christ, Henry \u00a0<\/span>
\n++++++++<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\n(Note from Liz) \u2026Dear Henry, <\/span>
\nI don’t know why,\u00a0 nor do I understand some of this but (I thought I would share ). \u00a0The biblical city of Nineveh keeps coming across my plate. I do know it was s fortress (stronghold ) supposedly impenetrable but was eventually sacked. I believe there were prophecies about it in the word. I think it was accessed \u00a0and brought down by its water source. \u00a0So I thought maybe Nancy and Sarah are dealing with that kind of s stronghold Spirit in Israel. \u00a0 It was also a big center of worship of Isis or Ishtar and a fish god I think. <\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nThe other thing I’d like to share us that I feel God gave me the word perseverance from the story of Elijah and Elisha. Elisha had perseverance even though Elijah tried to tell him to go – Elisha persisted in staying with Elijah and as a result got the double portion to be able to lead Gods people. \u00a0<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nI know that Nancy and Sarah’s perseverance in staying the course will make an eternal difference. \u00a0I so appreciate them and their sensitivity to God\u2019s leading. \u00a0I bless them in their obedience. \u00a0 I am believing that God is faithful to put all the pieces together for a sure victory. <\/span>
\nBlessings,<\/span>
\nLiz. <\/span>
\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/span>

Please keep Nancy and Sarah in prayer for traveling mercies as they travel to the North west corner of Israel, across to Banias (Caesarea Philippi), then down to Sea of Galilee to pray at \u201cThe Church of the Primacy of St. Peter\u201d.\u00a0 This is the location where Jesus commissioned Peter to \u201cfeed my sheep\u201d. They will then go down to the Yardenit Baptism location on the Jordan River, and finally return to Tel Aviv, traveling westward but to the north of the west bank area.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nThey will be near both the Lebanon border, Syria border, Jordan border, and Palestinian West Bank area. Pray Israel\u2019s neighbors are heavily influence by God\u2019s hand so they would be in a good mood all day today.<\/span>
\nBlessings, Henry<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nNancy and Sarah again have had a very successful day with amazing coverage by God\u2019s Hand.\u00a0 It is very evident that the prayer team has been standing in the gap and calling upon the Lord. Nancy message was that it is going very well with VERY POWERFUL PRAYERS!!!<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nHowever the work is not completed\u2026..again the Lord is calling upon the watchmen to press in even more\u2026..Nancy and Sarah will be traveling from Tel aviv to Ashdod, then past Ashelon to Sderot for they have been directed to pryer at Sderot.\u00a0 this town is located approximately 1 mile from the Gaza Strip.<\/span><\/p>\n

This used to be the place in the news, where all of the missiles were aimed at coming from Gaza. None have fallen here in 2015, essentially since the end of the conflict in 2014.\u00a0 There have been a few missiles that have come down in Ashkelon just north of Gaza, but Hamas, for the time being, has put a very severe restriction on any missiles being launched by anyone from Gaza. I checked this out and there could not be a safer time to be in Sderot (relatively speaking) than tomorrow, July 9, 2015. Yes, it will be intense as it was when Nancy and I visited Hebron in the West Bank 10 years ago.\u00a0 However with much prayer, I believe it will go well.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nJust as we were praying when they went into Red Square in Moscow\u2026.. Stealth invisibility would continue \u2026 but even more so by through the Hand of god and His covering; a hedge, a bulwark, a wall of fiery anointing surrounding them!<\/span><\/p>\n

Be it known before all heaven\u2026..the prayer team will be praying, we declare that God is faithful, and lift up Jesus the Messiah and His Kingdom so that they shall will be proclaimed, as Nancy and Sarah pray the borders of Israel to the Glory of God!<\/span>
\n+++++<\/span>
\nSet a hedge of protection, that satan cannot even see Nancy or Sarah<\/span>
\nJob 1:9 Then Satan answered the Lord, “Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 “Have You not made a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nSet a mighty bulwark by God\u2019s Hand that the fiery darts of the enemy cannot cross<\/span>
\nPs 91:4 He will cover you with His pinions,<\/span>
\nAnd under His wings you may seek refuge;<\/span>
\nHis faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nSet a wall of fire full of anointing from heaven flowing into and outward in both Nancy and Sarah<\/span>
\nZech 2:5 ‘For I,’ declares the Lord, ‘will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.'”<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nSet songs of deliverance and shouts of victory \u2013 God lifting up the overcoming victory of His faithful daughters<\/span>
\nPs 32:7 You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble;<\/span>
\nYou surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nIsa 42:10 Sing to the Lord a new song,<\/span>
\nSing His praise from the end of the earth!<\/span>
\nYou who go down to the sea, and all that is in it.<\/span>
\nYou islands, and those who dwell on them.<\/span>
\n11 Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voices,<\/span>
\nThe settlements where Kedar inhabits.<\/span>
\nLet the inhabitants of Sela sing aloud,<\/span>
\nLet them shout for joy from the tops of the mountains.<\/span>
\n12 Let them give glory to the Lord<\/span>
\nAnd declare His praise in the coastlands.<\/span>
\n13 The Lord will go forth like a warrior,<\/span>
\nHe will arouse His zeal like a man of war.<\/span>
\nHe will utter a shout, yes, He will raise a war cry.<\/span>
\nHe will prevail against His enemies.<\/span><\/p>\n

FYI: Sderot is Hebrew for Boulevard \u2026 a wide broad way \u2026 a way that is going to become one of the launching the gospel missiles \u201cinto\u201d Gaze.<\/span><\/p>\n

John 14:6 \u00a0Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. NASU<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nFor the gates of resistance shall be broken for Jesus and His kingdom is for all people\u2026..<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nPs 24:7 Lift up your heads, O gates,<\/span>
\nAnd be lifted up, O ancient doors,<\/span>
\nThat the King of glory may come in!<\/span>
\n8 Who is the King of glory?<\/span>
\nThe Lord strong and mighty,<\/span>
\nThe Lord mighty in battle.<\/span>
\n9 Lift up your heads, O gates,<\/span>
\nAnd lift them up, O ancient doors,<\/span>
\nThat the King of glory may come in!<\/span>
\n10 Who is this King of glory?<\/span>
\nThe Lord of hosts,<\/span>
\nHe is the King of glory. Selah.<\/span>

Nancy and Sarah completed the prayer assignment at Sderot. They were there without incident for almost an hour. The police station had them go around and see all of the missile fragments retrieved from attacks coming from Gaza. This was very emotional for them and for their driver almost bringing him to tears with thankfulness for their prayers. Nancy and Sarah prayed, repented, rejoiced, and gave thanksgiving; for as Nancy related to me\u2026..God says He has ears to hear —and has heard us all and is listening to the prayers for Sderot and for Gaza.<\/span>
\n\"bombtails\"<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “Bomb tails” shot from Gaza into Sderot area.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the their prayer concerns was for the children of the city. Liz had sent Nancy a text with information that approximately 70% of the children suffer from Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD) due to the rockets and explosions. It is extremely stressful living there. For example, in Tel Aviv, there is approximately 40 sec when the missile sirens sound to find the way to a nearby bomb shelter. In Sderot there is less than 15 sec so even school playgrounds have bomb shelters incorporated in the playground equipment. Be aware, from what I can research, many Jewish people \u201cchoose\u201d to live there. Nancy and Sarah prayed for children, but also parents, other adults, local and national leaders, and all in Israel who are to some degree, also affected by PTSD\u2026..<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nNancy and Sarah also prayed outside the city along the highway that faces Gaza. This area is within 800 meters (about a half-mile) from the Gaza boundary fence. They prayed for Sderot but also for the people of Gaza, that they would be given a honest and true resolution to their physical, emotional and spiritual misery and hopelessness. They declared prophetically\u2026..that God has an ultimate plan calling Sderot – and they will send in Gospel missiles into Gaza, and Jesus\u2019 name will be on the tip.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nThey also prayed for all the borders of Israel and all of the countries touching the Mediterranean sea as Israel does.<\/span>
\n\u00a0<\/span>
\nNancy and Sarah expressed much thanks to all for the powerful prayer coverage.<\/span>
\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 <\/span>
\nThey went back to their hotel with great intentions of swimming in the \u201csafe\u201d Mediterranean but \u201cjelly fish\u201d season is arriving (some as big as a volleyball). Is this prophetic (?) possibly.\u00a0 Consider, sometimes that which is beautiful and appears harmless (jelly fish) can truly be deadly. Even in a place we have deemed as being safe (Mediterranean Beach in Tel Aviv). I suspect we need to be ramping up prayer as God\u2019s watchmen and intercessor\u2019s for Nancy and Sarah\u2019s eyes to be opened, so they may see like the Eagle as the Holy Spirit gives them vision, so they may see in ways and to a depth they have not seen previously, whether when viewing something new, or something they have seen many times before.<\/span><\/p>\n

I just want to close with this.\u00a0 Yes, there is an itinerary of \u201cscheduled meetings\u201d for this ministry, but I want to remind you and encourage you in this:\u00a0 \u201cYOU\u201d are this ministry \u2026 we are ONE body!\u00a0 The other day we were driving to a Sunday AM meeting and we had been receiving texts and messages thanking us for our obedience and faithfulness to go.\u00a0 I couldn\u2019t help but think this – to me YOU are the obedient!\u00a0 \u2026 Greater is the obedience of those who carry on in their day to day routine that life demands and still YOU are faithful and obedience to pray as the Lord leads whether or not you see or hear.\u00a0 That\u2019s faithful in my mind.\u00a0 Thank you!\u00a0 We are all at war regardless if at home or on the field. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
