70 Percent of Republicans Would Consider Joining Trump-Led Party, Poll Finds

More than two-thirds of Republicans would join or consider joining a new political party if former President Donald Trump were to start one, a CBS News poll suggests.

Thirty-three percent of Republicans participating in the survey, conducted between Feb. 5 and Feb. 8, said they would join a Trump-led breakaway party. Another 37 percent said “maybe” they would join the new party, while the remaining 30 percent said they would stay with the Republican Party.

The poll was conducted among 2,508 adults living in the United States by YouGov, a London-based online polling company, with a plus/minus 2.3 point error margin. The sample was weighted according to gender, age, race and education based on the U.S. Bureau of the Census’ American Community Survey, as well as the 2020 presidential vote and registration status.

In addition, 46 percent of respondents identified as Republicans said they believe it is “very important” for the party to remain loyal to Trump, with 27 percent saying it is “somewhat important.” Fifteen percent said the Republican loyalty to Trump is “not too important” and twelve percent said it is not important at all. (Read more)

- Father God, we thank You for this poll, and for the picture it gives to the American people. We praise You, O God, that the vast majority of the Republicans in our nation clearly still support President Trump, even in this time of his "second impeachment." Thank you, Lord, we pray, amen and amen.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that in the next government he will not agree to a rotation for prime minister.

"There will be no more rotating government. We need one prime minister. Everyone has already understood that. We will win the election and bring a full-fledged right-wing government," Netanyahu said in an interview with Channel 20.

The Prime Minister also referred to the discourse over the potential addition of Otzma Yehudit Chair Itamar Ben Gvir to the government.  (Read more)

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hinted that President Biden’s time in office will bring challenges to Israel which only he is qualified to take on, during an interview with Channel 20on Wednesday.

Biden has not called Netanyahu for nearly one month since taking office, leaving political commentators wondering about the implications of the snub.

Netanyahu downplayed the lack of communication, but suggested that Biden’s presidency may pose a unique challenge for Israel.  (Read more) 

3. IDF to Call Up Only Those Who Are Vaccinated for Reserve Duty- Jewish Press

The Israel Defense Forces announced this week that a callup for reserve duty will now be issued solely to those Israeli veterans who have already completed the two-dose regimen of coronavirus vaccine.

The callup will be issued beginning one week after the second dose has been administered, according to a report by Kipa News.

Exceptions to the new policy will be made only with the approval of the IDF unit commander. (Read more) 

4. In major shift, KKL-JNF said set to okay purchasing W. Bank land for settlements - Times of Israel

The Jewish National Fund is reportedly expected to officially authorize the purchase of land in the West Bank, potentially marking a major policy change for the century-old organization.

Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael Jewish National Fund (KKL-JNF) will discuss buying private Palestinian land in Area C of the West Bank, potentially for hundreds of millions of dollars, for the development of existing settlements, the Walla news site reported Thursday. Area C comprises parts of the West Bank controlled by Israel.

KKL’s management is expected to hold talks next week on a proposal to regulate the organization’s activities in the West Bank and allow it to buy land there and expand and develop settlements, the report said, citing a Hebrew draft resolution it obtained.

The organization will not construct new settlements but work in existing ones with education, environmental and other projects, the report said. Land purchases will be conducted only inside the jurisdiction of settlements or next to them.

1. Biden admin. to keep US embassy in Jerusalem, recognize it as capital of Israel - Christian Post

The Biden administration plans to keep the U.S. embassy to Israel in Jerusalem, upholding a controversial decision by former President Donald Trump. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that he recognizes Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

The interview was followed by the release of a CQ Roll Call report Tuesday that cited an unnamed Biden administration source saying that the U.S. will not move the embassy out of Jerusalem, despite Palestinian opposition.

“The U.S. position is that our embassy will remain in Jerusalem, which we recognize as Israel’s capital,” the source was quoted as saying. “The ultimate status of Jerusalem is a final status issue which will need to be resolved by the parties in the context of direct negotiations.”

In his interview with Blitzer, Blinken was asked directly if he recognizes Israel as the capital of Israel.
“I do, yes,” the secretary responded. “And more importantly, we do.”

Blinken was asked if he would support Palestine locating its capital in East Jerusalem as part of a potential peace agreement. “What we have to see happen is for the parties to get together and negotiate these so-called final status issues,” he said. (Read more)

- We lift up a hallelujah and praise You Lord that the Biden administration is continuing to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and that the US embassy will remain in Jerusalem as well. May You bless us for blessing Israel.

- "Let the peoples serve you, and the nations bow down to you. . . Cursed be everyone who curses you, and blessed be every one who blesses you!" (Genesis 27:29)

2. Scientists Discover New Coronavirus Similar to COVID-19 in Thailand - Jewish Press

Scientists have discovered a new coronavirus virus with a 91.5 percent similarity to the genetic code of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The new virus, named RacCS203, was discovered by a research team led by Lin-Fa Wang of the University of Singapore. It was found in horseshoe bats kept in an artificial cave in a wildlife sanctuary in Thailand. The scenario is strikingly similar to that in which the bats infected with the deadly COVID-19 coronavirus were discovered by a research team in the province of Yunnan, China.

The RacCS203 virus is also related to a second new coronavirus named RmYN02. RmYN02, like SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), is also found in the horseshoe bats who live in the caves of Yunnan, China, according to a report by the researchers published this week in Nature Communications. RmYN02 is an even closer match to COVID-19, with a 93.6 percent similarity to the SARS-CoV-2 genome, researchers said.

The differences between the viruses are found in the spike protein, according to the report in Nature Communications. The researchers said they believe it is impossible for the new virus to infect human cells because of those differences. Let us hope and pray they are correct. (Read more) 

- Father God, You have authority over ALL things. We praise you Lord, that You alone give wisdom and shine your light, to make things known. We pray that You would grant supernatural wisdom over the causes of the new Covid-variants that are springing up throughout the world. Thank you, Abba, for the knowledge you have already given scientists regarding this virus and specific anti-bodies to combat Covid. You are Jehovah Sabaoth, Our Protector, and we declare that in Your mercy, You will bring an end to the spreading of this virus and all Covid variants. We give praise to You Lord, for the insight that will give researchers the ability to extinguish the further spread of this Covid pandemic. To You, Lord, we give all Glory and Praise! In the Mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. 

“No human wisdom or understanding or plan can stand against the Lord” (Proverbs 21:30)

3. CDC recommends double-masking for more protection against COVID-19 - NY Post 
 

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is recommending that everyone wear two face coverings — after a new study found that doubling up can improve mask performance against COVID-19 by about 50 percent.

Wearing a cloth covering over a medical procedure mask or disposable mask significantly helps reduce exposure to the deadly bug, the CDC study found.

The agency said it studied two ways of improving the use of medical masks — “fitting a cloth mask over a medical procedure mask, and knotting the ear loops of a medical procedure mask and then tucking in and flattening the extra material close to the face.”

It said that “each modification substantially improved source control and reduced wearer exposure.” (Read more) 

- Father, as Your children, we have another, sure-fire defense against any COVID or virus strain that may be unleashed against our population. We have the WORD OF GOD.

- IT IS WRITTEN: " . . . if they drink [take into their system] anything poisonous, it won’t hurt them.. . ." (Mark 16:18)
- IT IS WRITTEN: "No weapon that is forged against you shall prosper . . ." (Is. 59:19)

4. Trump's condition during hospitalization was worse than acknowledged: NYT - The Hill

At the time of his hospitalization, Trump had severely depressed blood oxygen levels and officials were concerned he would have to be placed on a ventilator, according to the Times, citing two people familiar with his condition. He was determined to have lung infiltrates, or substances such as fluid or bacteria inflaming the lungs. Trump was previously reported to be struggling to breathe and running a fever Oct. 2, when he was taken to the hospital. The then-president had participated in the first presidential debate two days before his diagnosis was made public, and it remains unclear whether he had transmitted the virus by that point.

Sean Conley, the president’s doctor at the time, repeatedly downplayed concerns about Trump’s condition in public appearances, saying there had only been “expected findings, but nothing of any major clinical concern” during his hospital stay. Conley told reporters Trump’s blood oxygen levels had fallen to about 93 percent but never reached “the low 80s.” However, people familiar with Trump’s evaluation told the Times his levels had reached the 80s. Conley did not define the specific parameters of “the low 80s” so it is unclear whether his comments directly contradict the Times’s reporting.

White House officials began working to get the Regeneron antibody cocktail, which was not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration, to Trump on Oct. 1, the night of his diagnosis. After Trump was discharged from the hospital he repeatedly touted its benefits, saying his recovery was “proof it works.” (Read more) 

- Father, thank You for President Trump's recovery and for protecting his life during his hospital stay. We continue to speak Your favor and protection upon Him during this current trial he is enduring. Bring him out unharmed and may all the evil that is meant to harm him fail!

Who delivered me from my enemies; yes, you exalted me above those who rose against me; you rescued me from the man of violence. (Psalm 18:48) 

5. Federal Judge Permanently Blocks NY Restrictions on Indoor Worship
 - Christian Headlines

A federal judge has granted a permanent injunction that blocks the state of New York’s restrictions on indoor worship gatherings.  U.S. District Judge Kiyo Matsumoto, who had previously rejected the case, reversed her decision and granted the permanent injunction, The Christian Post reports. The ruling comes after the U.S. Supreme Court decided to issue a temporary injunction on the restrictions in November.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo had originally issued an order in October 2020 that placed many houses of worship in restricted zones in the state. In red zones, churches were limited to 25 percent occupancy or 10 people, whichever is fewer. In orange zones, houses of worship were limited to a 33 percent occupancy or 25 people, whichever is fewer.

In response to the order, the Agudath Israel of America and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn filed a lawsuit, saying the rules violated their First Amendment rights. In November, the U.S. Supreme Court voted to grant a temporary court order on enforcement of the limitations.

The case was then sent back to Matsumoto. Matsumoto said the state “agreed to an injunction against enforcement of the 25 percent and 33 percent capacity limits in red and orange zones.” She added that the state “has not presented additional evidence” in support of the restrictions.

Eric Rassback, vice president and senior counsel at the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, which represented churches in the lawsuit, said the restrictions came from “politics” and not “public health.” “The court’s order is good news for the synagogues, churches, and other houses of worship of New York,” he said. (Read more) 
- Father, we lift up a resounding PRAISE and HALLELUJAH that worship for our Lord God Almighty, (El Shaddai), can never be thwarted! We thank You Lord that the decision to block Church gatherings in New York has been reversed by Judge Matsumoto. Lord, bless those who stood up for righteousness and spoke boldly for the Cause of Christ. May Your people rejoice as they gather in Worship and may they be empowered by your Holy Word. We speak a revival in New York and throughout this nation and declare that the enemy will fall under Your feet! In the Powerful Name of Jesus of Nazareth, we pray. Amen

- “I know that You can do all things; No purpose of Yours can be thwarted” (Job 42:2)

3. New Senate Bill Would Prohibit Boys in Girls' Sports: 'We Are Not All the Same' - Christian Headlines

A bill introduced this month in Congress would prohibit biological males from participating in girls’ and women’s sports by clarifying that the language on athletics in Title IX refers to biological sex, not gender identity. The legislation by U.S. Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) would ensure that Title IX provisions on sports treat sex as that which is “recognized based solely on a person's reproductive biology and genetics at birth,” according to a press release from his office. Further, the bill would find schools in violation of Title IX if they allow biological males to participate in girls’ or women's sports. Title IX is a 1972 law prohibiting discrimination based on sex in education.

In Connecticut in recent years, two high school biological boys who identify as girls won a combined 15 girls’ track state titles. During his first week in office, President Biden signed an executive order declaring that his administration interprets Title IX as applying to sexual orientation and gender identity. Biden’s choice for secretary of education, Miguel Cardona, told senators during a hearing that he believes biological boys who identify as girls have the legal right to compete on girls’ teams.

The bill, S. 251, has nine co-sponsors, and is intended to thwart action by the Biden administration. It is known as the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act.

“When transgender athletes compete against women, women’s sports are no longer women’s sports; they become unisex athletic events,” Lee said. “This bill would protect the opportunity of girls throughout America to athletically compete against other girls.” Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), a co-sponsor, said the bill is needed to protect women’s sports.  “I think about my granddaughters – who all grew up playing sports – having to compete against individuals born as males,” Inhofe said. “We are all equal, but we are not all the same and we need this action to protect the future of women’s sports. (Read more) 

- Lord, we praise you for Bill, S. 251 that stands boldly to create protection over all female athletes and girls of our nation. We speak a special blessing of articulation in the presentation of this Bill, that it would convict the hearts of many who have not considered Your Ways. Lord we thank You, that You have created man and woman in perfection and with distinct differences. Your word says we are “...awesomely and wonderfully made; wonderful are Your works and my soul knows it well”(Psalm 139:14) Father, we declare Your Victory over the passing of Bill, S. 251, that will not allow biologically born men to compete in sports with women and girls of this nation. Lord, protect the females of our nation, for Your statutes are always right. In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. 

“The Lord preserves those with knowledge, but He ruins the plans of the treacherous.” (Proverbs 22:12)

7. Warnock Under Investigation for Role in Stacey Abrams’ Voter Registration Org - National Review

Senator Raphael Warnock (D., Ga.) is under investigation for his involvement in the New Georgia Project, a voter registration organization founded by Stacey Abrams, which officials say failed to follow state election deadlines in 2019.

The Georgia State Election Board voted 3-0 Wednesday to launch an investigation into Warnock’s time as chairman of the board for the New Georgia Project in 2019, when officials say the group violated state election rules that require voting registration organizations to submit completed voter application within ten days after they are received from the voter.

Officials say the New Georgia Project submitted 1,268 applications to the Gwinnett County elections office after the ten-day deadline in 2019. (Read more) 

- Father, bring forth all truth in this Warnock investigation and the role of Stacey Abrams. May all fraud be found out and justice prevail!

- Truthful words stand the test of time, but lies are soon exposed. (Proverbs 12:19)

8. Project Veritas suspended by Twitter after story on hate speech algorithms: 'Wow! Locked down' - Washington Times

Project Veritas and its reporting by President James O’Keefe have been suspended by Twitter in the wake of a story on social media hate speech algorithms.

The investigative reporting organization, long a thorn in the side of Silicon Valley, announced the move early Thursday.

“WOW! Twitter has just LOCKED DOWN James O’Keefe’s and the Project Veritas account for reporting on Facebook VP Guy Rosen and his statements that Facebook ‘freezes’ comments in places that algorithms think there ‘may be’ hate speech,” the group said via its Facebook page.

Screenshots of Twitter‘s rationale to Mr. O’Keefe claim private information was posted without explicit permission. A YouTube video posted earlier in the week featured Mr. Rosen outside his home during an exchange with Project Veritas’ Christian Hartsock.

At issue is an internal Facebook call in which Mr. Rosen talks about “a system that is able to freeze commenting on threads in cases where our systems are detecting that there may be a thread that has hate speech or violence.” (Read more)

- Father, we declare Your word over all the attacks on conservative individuals and groups! No weapon formed against us shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against us we shall show to be in the wrong!

In your unfailing love, silence my enemies;
    destroy all my foes,
    for I am your servant. 
(Psalm 143:12) 

9. Biden hits Myanmar military leaders with sanctions after 'coup' - Washington Examiner

President Biden announced fresh sanctions on Myanmar's military leaders on Wednesday as he unveiled Washington's toughest response yet to last week's coup. "The military must relinquish power it seized and demonstrate respect for the will of the people of Burma as expressed in their Nov. 8 election," Biden said in an address at the White House.

Myanmar's armed forces arrested civilian leaders, including Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, on Feb. 1 as they announced a yearlong state of emergency. The army said it was forced to act because of allegations of fraud surrounding its election, claims that were dismissed by the country’s electoral commission.

"Today, I've approved a new executive order ... enabling us to immediately sanction the military leaders who directed the coup, their business interests, as well as close family members," Biden said.

He also said export controls would prevent Myanmar's generals from accessing $1 billion in assets in the United States, while allowing American support for healthcare and civil society groups, and that the first round of sanction targets would be identified this week.

"The assault on Burma's transition to democracy remains an issue of deep bipartisan concern," Biden said, adding that he had consulted with Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell, who long has been a force on U.S. policy toward Myanmar, as well as international allies. (Read more)

- Lord Jesus, thank you that sanctions have been leveled on Myanmar's military leaders. Thank you for the bipartisan efforts in working with Senator Mitch McConnell. We pray for the restoration of Aung San Suu Kyi to her duly elected office. We rebuke the coup in Jesus name. We join our brothers and sisters in prayer  that they will be safe and that "democracy" will be restored. Lord, we stand in hope and tell them that the world has not abandoned them and that they are not alone. May the people in Myanmar see You and may many come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.  In Jesus name. Amen

- "Our soul waits for the Lord; He is our help and shield. Yea, our heart is glad in Him, because we trust in His holy name. Let Thy steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in Thee."  (Psalms 33:20-22) 

 10. Biden’s hands tied on border crisis by 1997 court decision - Washington Examiner

President Biden faces a major obstacle to his immigration agenda in the form of the Flores settlement agreement, a set of court orders setting rules for detaining and releasing migrant children at the border.

The agreement effectively prevents federal law enforcement from detaining migrant families for more than a brief period, forcing the government to choose between aggressively turning away families at the border or releasing them into the country.

The agreement has bedeviled the past five administrations as migration to the southern border ebbs and flows. Now, it threatens to present Biden with a crisis.

While border agents are expelling nearly all illegal immigrants back to Mexico, one high-traffic section of the border in Texas is being forced to detain and release into the country all families as the result of Mexico refusing to take back families. And with detention facilities unable to hold the rising number of families due to capacity and timing restraints outlined in the agreement, Biden could lose control of the border even before he has a chance to pursue immigration reform legislation.  (Read more) 

- Almighty Lord, we thank you for restrictions like the Flores agreement that will hinder the Biden plan to allow immigrants into our country. We pray for the area in Texas being forced to detain then release all families into the country. May previous enforcement measures and stricter oversight of our borders be maintained. May there be humane treatment as they are returned and may all with evil intentions be exposed.

- "When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of men, he fixed the bounds of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God." (Deuteronomy 32:8)

Impeaching The Wrong President

The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson,February 11, 2021

As the Democratic Party is closing out a four-year obstruction of a duly elected president and an attack on all who supported him, there looms a far greater issue deserving impeachable attention—China and President Joe Biden*. All the theatrics of nailing the coffin shut on conservatism, the name calling, the labeling of those who disagree with them, the pandering to the extreme left will not delay the undercurrent of Biden’s ties with China and the blatant, out-in-the-open, collaboration with the Chinese Communist Party against the interests of people like you and me. Biden’s actions to favor China have gone virtually unnoticed amid the smokescreen antics of the current impeachment proceedings.

For example, one of his first actions in office was an Executive Order rejoining the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, which essentially means the US taxpayers will pay to clean up the world’s air, mostly polluted by China. Cancelling the Keystone pipeline means that the US will once again become energy dependent, which strategically benefits China. Biden announced a Pentagon task force to examine US-China strategy, as telling CBS, “I’m not going to do it the way Trump did. We’re going to focus on international rules of the road.” He then insisted that there did not need to be conflict between the two countries. That translated, means appeasement as opposed to protecting American interests. China gets its way.

In addition, Biden rescinded requirements on schools and universities to report their relationships with China, allowing for propagandization of America’s youth. In August, the Trump Administration required the center managing the China-funded Confucius Institute to register as a foreign mission because it is “an entity advancing Beijing’s global propaganda and malign influence campaign on US campuses and K-12 classrooms.” Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) responded: “Confucius Institutes are front groups for the Chinese Communist Party on American campuses. The federal government ought to shut down these regime-run institutes or, at a minimum, require colleges to disclose their secret agreements with them. Instead, the Biden administration is allowing a foreign influence operation to continue in the shadows.” Again, China gets its way.

These are the continuations of Biden family corruption previously documented from at least four sources: 1) Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee and the Senate Committee on Finance investigation; 2) Hunter Biden’s laptop; 3) Hunter Biden’s former business partner Bevan Cooney, who is serving time for the very business dealings Hunter and he did; and 4) Tony Bobulinski’s emails and eyewitness accounts of Biden’s influence peddling with China. Biden cannot possibly represent America’s interests without being leveraged by China. And now its payoff time. It’s like God telling Ezekiel to dig into the temple wall and in Ezekiel 8:9, “Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they are doing here.” If you dig a little, you will see. They are impeaching the wrong president. And, China gets its way.

'Mass casualty incident' unfolding on Texas highway as more than 100 cars pile up because of icy roadways, trapping people in vehicles

A rescue operation is under way on Thursday after more than an estimated 100 vehicles piled up on a Texas highway near downtown Fort Worth after sleet turned the roadways into sheets of ice, according to reports.

According to the Daily Mail, the crash site runs more than 1 1/2 miles long, and first responders are referring to the catastrophe as a "mass casualty incident."

Early Thursday morning, the Fort Worth Fire Department tweeted, "MCI alert. 1601 N Freeway. Multiple vehicles involved. Multiple people trapped. More details to follow. PIO responding."

First responders are still attempting to access many of the vehicles, but are reportedly having difficulties due to the icy roads.

Twitter user Jason McLaughlin shared footage of the mass crash, captioning it, "Here at the scene in North Fort Worth in one of the worse [sic] disasters I have ever seen in this area. Pray. Pray hard. 100+ of vehicles." (The BlazeRead more.

Dream led to stolen ‘golden bowl’ instrument and hidden tribe

In 2013 Caleb Byerly woke up with a start and began to furiously write in his journal everything he saw in a rather unusual dream. For the previous five years, the small-town North Carolina resident had been engaged in mission outreach to indigenous people and tribal areas in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands.

“In the dream, I was standing on top of this mountain. I was looking out across the mountain, and I saw a tribe of people,” he told The Unseen Story. Caleb and his wife, Gladys, live in Moravian Falls, a town of 1400 in the foothills of the Brushy Mountains.

He had never seen the tribe before, so he asked, “What tribe are you? What people are you?”

“We’re the Tinananon tribe,” they replied.  Caleb had never heard of this people group and he began to carefully observe their actions in his dream. (Read more)

Words: Sarah Adams
Music: Lowell Mason

Scripture:
 And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it. Genesis 28:11-12

Lyrics:
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.

Refrain
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!

Though like the wanderer,
The sun gone down,
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone.
Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God to Thee.

Refrain

There let the way appear,
Steps unto Heav’n;
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given;
Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee.

Refrain

Then, with my waking thoughts
Bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee.

Or, if on joyful wing
Cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.

Refrain

There in my Father’s home,
Safe and at rest,
There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest;
Age after age to be, nearer my God to Thee.

Sara Ballenger and Lori Daub will be the featured speakers on Rick's call this Saturday night. Learn about the NIGHTWATCH - a prayer strategy offering prayers in the night that has been in place since 2003 with MANY TEAMS quietly offering prayers in the still of the night on behalf of America AND for Israel!

Over all of these past years, our God has done wondrous things, with intercessors partnering in prayer, in rotation and NONSTOP, to see the wicked cast down and the righteous overcome! Until now, our NIGHTWATCH teams have been operating "under cover," but this weekend, on Saturday night, we will lift the veil and invite all of you to join us in prayers of warfare and THANKSGIVING at "what GOD hath wrought!"

Come join us! WELCOME!

About Capitol Hill Prayer Partners

Our Mission Statement

Capitol Hill Prayer Partners (CHPP) is a ministry which is positioned on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., helping members of the Body of Christ to "pray for those in authority over us" in our federal government. Our primary purpose is to offer intercession on site for the members of Congress and their staffs each day that the Senate and the House of Representatives are in session; and our chief prayer focus is that "God's will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." [Matthew 6:10].

Because Jesus Christ has shed His blood for all, we, too, pray for ALL, in a nonpartisan manner. Also, because the scriptures indicate that "the effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much"  (James 4:17), we are confident that fervent prayer, offered in the halls of the highest chambers of government in our land, can avail much for America. Capitol Hill Prayer Partners welcomes those who feel called to join us, engaging in this strategic work of intercession for our nation: "For there is no power but of God; the powers that be are ordained of God."  [Romans 13:1]
