We Are Praying,Proclaiming, and Prophesying, While Breaking Nations Open For The Glory of God To Invade The Earth In Power And Demonstration Of Gospel of Jesus ChristUnknownnoreply@blogger.comBlogger5125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6418633015055624191.post-57419564196967911722011-03-26T00:34:00.000-07:002011-03-26T00:34:01.245-07:00Prayer For the Nations<div class="micro">When I think of nations I can’t help but remember that they are but a drop in a bucket to God. Think about that. How huge is God’s scope of vision? How utterly immense is His authority over all of creation? While it may be very difficult for any of us to imagine, God can save a nation, in a solitary day. </div><div class="micro">The familiar passage in Isaiah 59 reminds us that God was looking for just one man who would stand up for truth, and of His amazement that none could be found. One man or woman can make a difference. They always have. All it takes is the strength to bow a knee, and call upon the Name that is above every other name.</div><blockquote><div class="micro"><strong>Prayer:</strong><br />
<em>Father, I thank you that nothing is too big for You. Nothing can compare with Your power and wisdom. Today I lift my voice to You, that You would be exalted in this nation. I pray that the leaders of this nation would honour and exalt Your Name, and that Your righteousness would be manifested in the market places of this great land. In Jesus’ Name we stand against the foolish dark powers that think they will triumph over You! Nothing, absolutely nothing, can stand against You Oh God, for You are mighty to deliver Your people. Our prayer oh Lord is that You would indeed make haste to deliver, and shine upon this land with Your glory. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.</em></div></blockquote><br />
<div class="micro">Military might does not make a mighty nation, but rather moral might makes a nation mighty. Proverbs 13:34 tells us that righteousness is what exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people. Our nation as with all nations needs to understand that their legacy will not be seen from the perspective of their humanly wise legislations, or by the size of their welfare programs, but rather by the depth of their devotion and adherence to the laws of the Kingdom of God.</div><div class="micro">Open mockery of the things of God is prevalent in the halls of governmental facilities, but God will not be mocked for long. As He is the King of all Kings and the Lord of all Lords, soon the frailty of the imaginations of mankind will be shown to be the folly that it is. Godly men and women in the halls of government are assaulted daily with the opportunity to feel undone by the few in their number. However our God is not hindered by the size of the army, but by the size of the spirit.</div><blockquote><div class="micro"><strong>Prayer:</strong><br />
<em>Father, I pray for those in authority in our land, and particular today for those who bear Your name unashamedly. Father, remind them that there is NOTHING to prevent You from saving by many or by few. Bolster and build their spirits today to trust in You with all their heart. Let them call upon Your Name before every committee meeting and directive they must act upon. Let them choose the fear of God and not the fear of man. And Lord, let them see the reward of their Godly actions, lest they faint in their minds. Strengthen them, encourage them, and bless their families and homes in a mighty way, in Jesus’ Name, Amen</em></div></blockquote>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6418633015055624191.post-36636036216353083212011-03-26T00:26:00.001-07:002011-03-26T00:28:13.404-07:00Prayer For World Leaders<h3 class="post-title entry-title"><em><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: large;">Prayer For World Leaders <br />
Heavenly Father, I (we) come to You now in the Name of my (our) Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. I (we) pray for our world leaders that Your Spirit rests upon them.<br />
I (we) believe that skillful and godly wisdom has entered into the hearts of our world leaders and that they will do Your will, Heavenly Father, that they have hearts and ears attentive to Your godly counsel. Lord make them women and men of Your integrity, that we may lead a quiet and peaceful life in all godliness and honestly. I (we) pray that the wicked world leaders shall be cut off and rooted out.<br />
Heavenly Father, You are our Refuge and Stronghold in times of trouble. So we declare with our mouths that Your people dwell safely in this land, and we prosper abundantly. We are more than conquerers through Christ Jesus.<br />
We give thanks unto You Lord that the good news of the Gospel is published in our land. The Word of the Lord prevails and grows mightily in the hearts and lives of the people. We give thanks for this land and the leaders You have given us, in Jesus' Name I (we) pray. Amen.<br />
<br />
Prayer for the Lost<br />
Heavenly Father, I (we) come to You now in the Name of my (our) Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. I (we) pray for the lost of the world this day and that every man, woman, and child from here to the farthest corners of the earth be saved. As I (we) intercede, I (we) use my (our) faith, believing that thousands this day have the opportunity to make Jesus their Lord.<br />
I (we) ask the Lord of the harvest to thrust the perfect laborers across these lives this day to share the good news of the Gospel in a special way so that they will listen and understand it, that it will touch their hearts. In the Name of Jesus Christ, I (we) pray with thanksgiving. Amen. </span></em></h3><div style="clear: both;"><em><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: large;"></span></em></div><div class="post-footer"><div class="post-footer-line post-footer-line-1"><span class="post-author vcard" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif; font-size: large;"><em>Posted by <span class="fn">Chris Herzog</span> </em></span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6418633015055624191.post-27936571131889162732011-02-16T23:52:00.000-08:002011-02-16T23:54:12.858-08:00Refuse to Bow to Critics<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/0t2q0XDDf90?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><h3 class="post-title entry-title">Refuse to Bow to Critics </h3><h3 class="post-title entry-title">Proverbs 4:23 declares, " <span class="strongs" sn="05341">Keep</span> thy <span class="strongs" sn="03820">heart</span> with all <span class="strongs" sn="04929">diligence;</span> for out of it flow the <span class="strongs" sn="08444">issues</span> of <span class="strongs" sn="02416">life."</span><br />
Do not give more time to a critic than you would give to a friend. Critical people are hurting inside, and build their lives trying to destroy others. Constructive suggestions should always be welcomed into your life, but refuse to allow critical people to manipulate you. You cannot prove integrity, it must be recognized. Your authority, loyalty, and integrity may be challenged and questioned, but hold your ground. Do not allow what other people say about you to change your opinion of yourself. Jesus was falsely accused, and slandered, but because He knew the ignorance in their hearts, He did not let it affect His self image. Reject a critical spirit, and embrace the encouragement of others. Don't worry about looking good to others, just be good. Who cares if people acknowledge your truthfulness? Be truthful, regardless of what others think they know about you. Most people are so busy with their lives, yours is not their total focus. You know yourself better than anyone. Their will always be an enemy or enemies in your life that try to discourage, distact, or derail your assignment. Ususally by using people who speak words of doubt and fear. It may even come from wthin yourself. Do not let all the doubt and fears into your spirit. Be careful what you allow on the inside, guard your heart. </h3><div style="clear: both;"></div><div class="post-footer"><div class="post-footer-line post-footer-line-1"><span class="post-author vcard">Posted by Chris Herzog</span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6418633015055624191.post-38920238031356462772011-02-10T21:25:00.000-08:002011-02-16T16:39:51.162-08:00India<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><strong><span style="color: black;">Jaggam-peta or Jagg-amma-peta is a village and a </span></strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/w/142881945724359"><strong><span style="color: black;">Mandal</span></strong></a><strong><span style="color: black;"> in </span></strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/w/143202265692826"><strong><span style="color: black;">East Godavari district</span></strong></a><strong><span style="color: black;"> in the state of </span></strong><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/w/106166669414678"><strong><span style="color: black;">Andhra Pradesh</span></strong></a><span style="color: black;"><strong> in </strong><strong>India</strong> </span></div><span style="color: black;"><br />

<span style="color: black;">There are monasteries and Dharma centres from all three major traditions of Buddhism in Singapore: </span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Theravada" title="Theravada"><span style="color: black;">Theravada</span></a><span style="color: black;">, </span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Mahayana" title="Mahayana"><span style="color: black;">Mahayana</span></a><span style="color: black;"> and </span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/wiki/Vajrayana" title="Vajrayana"><span style="color: black;">Vajrayana</span></a><span style="color: black;">. Most Buddhists in Singapore are Chinese and are of the Mahayana tradition.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Chinese Mahayana is the most predominant form of Buddhism in Singapore with missionaries from Taiwan and China for several decades.

<span style="color: white;">Pray for the hearts and minds of the people of Singapore are open to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Pray the power of the Holy Spirit would fill all the Christians to improve their witness. Pray that Salvation, Healing, and Deliverance will be the fruit of the work in Singapore. Father touch the churches in Singapore, fill and empower the harvest workers who are spreading the Gospel to the people there. Their eyes would be flooded with light and all lies and false teachung about God and His Kingdom would be destroyed. Reveal Truth, Reveal JESUS, Reveal SALVATION, IN JESUS NAME AMEN!</span><br />

I am married for 5 years. With much prayers I have a daughter born in sept 2010. I was moving towards God closely during my wife's pregnancy and after her birth. I gave testimonial and my baby was baptized in oct 2010. But on 26th Dec in the early morning something very bad happended to me. Early morning at 8am 26th Dec in my sleep suddenly I got breathless with nausea and tighness in chest and my heart was beating fast and accompanied by flu and fever. I rushed to hospital. They scanned my heart with ecg and found heart rate high. But my ekg found heart is normal and lungs xray were normal. I was later diagnosed bronchial asthma by a clinic. We prayed, my pastor from St pauls in Singapore also prayed. But till now I have the breathlessness and chest tighness with left chest and arm pains. I have fear to sleep at night as at times I wake up not able to breath. I am also very fearful and worried about my sudden change of health. I have no medical history of</span></div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="color: black;">heart or lungs problem. I could not concentrate in my life and be happy with my newborn daughter the lord gave me. My wife, mom-in-law, grandma in law are christians and are praying for me but in fear as they also feel this could be spiritual attack. I would kindly like to request for prayers for my health. Thank You very much.</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="color: black;"><br />
