Today's Prayer Focus: Entering in --
The Department of Justice
The mission of the Department of Justice, along with its many divisions (FBI, DEA, Civil Rights Division, and many more) work to fulfill the orders given by our Attorney General, William Barr. As such, his own work can only be effectively carried out if this huge team of agents, attorneys and investigators do their job correctly.
Hence, in a very real sense, we all depend on the work of the Department of Justice to ensure our own safety, and the securing of our rights under the U.S. Constitution.
One example of how critical their work is will be seen this very week, as has been reported in several news sources:
Ex-FBI lawyer to plead guilty to falsifying documents in Russia inquiry; first case brought in DOJ review - USA Today
A former FBI lawyer was charged Friday and is expected to plead guilty to falsifying documents used to support the surveillance of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
The case against Kevin Clinesmith is the first to be brought by federal prosecutor John Durham, appointed last year to review the origins of the investigation into Russia's interference in the 2016 election.
Clinesmith's lawyers said their client "deeply regrets" his actions involving work on surveillance applications for Page submitted to the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.
"It was never his intent to mislead the court or his colleagues as he believed the information he relayed was accurate," his lawyers said in a statement. "But Kevin understands what he did was wrong and accepts responsibility." (Read more)

Father God, we come before Your Throne of Grace, praising You for the work of Attorney General William Barr and of the Department of Justice that serves under his authority. We thank you for the countless hours of the thorough examination of evidence, now going back several years, leading to the discovery of solid evidence of criminal wrongdoing by many who have been working against the best interests of our country.
We thank you, too, that in the days ahead, justice will be served; the guilty will be proven guilty; and the innocent will be set free.
We ask, dear Lord, that You will keep every single agent and his family safe under the shelter of Your Wing, and fully focused and effective as he or she carries out the task set before them.
We ask this in Your name, dear Lord, amen and amen.
A Song for Today
WE HAVE AN ANCHOR
As the storms of justice intensify in the coming days, we rejoice that we do have an anchor, Jesus Christ, Who will guide us through . . . just as the chorus below decrees!
We have an anchor that keeps the soul
Steadfast and sure while the billows roll,
Fastened to the Rock which cannot move,
Grounded firm and deep in the Savior's love.
Go here to sing this song with us!
What is "The Siege?"
Radical activist group plans to "lay siege to" and "occupy" White House in September
The radical activist group that takes credit for the #OccupyWallStreet movement in 2011 has announced plans to occupy the White House next month. Adbusters, a digital publication that describes itself as "a global network" determined to "advance the new social activist movement of the information age," issued a post dubbed "#WhiteHouseSiege - Tactical Briefing #1."
"It's been nine years since we set off the political earthquake of #OccupyWallStreet, laying siege to NYC's Zuccotti Park and inspiring thousands of similar protests around the world," the post reads. "The Occupy anniversary arrives September 17th, 2020. And it may be the perfect day to trigger another global big-bang moment - a massive collective action of the sweetest kind of disobedience."
"It's time again for dramatic, decisive action. Which is why, on September 17th, in the original and enduring spirit of Occupy, we and tens of thousands of our fellow citizens will stream into Lafayette Square, in Washington. D.C," the post continued. "We will lay siege to the White House. And we will sustain it for exactly 50 days. This is the #WhiteHouseSiege."
Our Response:
Our strategy
In confronting this enemy, we will follow Christ's example. Accordingly, every day for the next 40 days, we will join forces with prayer points, Scriptures, and worship to confront the enemy at the gates and to render him null and void.
We will begin now, and end on Sunday, September 20, just after the siege of the enemy has begun. BUT. by the grace of GOD, the enemy will instead find a big surprise at that gate: the LOVE OF JESUS, with His Hands extended towards each one, waiting to welcome them home.
By marshallng our forces in advance, just as was done this month in Austin, Texas, the plans of the enemy will be routed and OUR GOD WILL REIGN on the streets of Washington, D.C.!
Please note . . .
When lifting up prayer about these "enemy troops," our intercession is in fact aimed towards the forces in the heavenlies that are holding them captive!
It is written:
"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Ephesians 6:12)
"Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand." (Ephesians 6:13)
Let us now stand together, dressed in the full armor of God in this evil day, at the gate of the highest authority in this land, praying for our nation, our President, and our upcoming elections.
In His Amazing Grace, we invite all of you to join us as we LAY SIEGE TO THE SIEGE IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
