Next Saturday, October 14th, America will witness one of two eclipses that will cross our nation and meet over the State of Texas. The second eclipse will occur on April 8, 2024. THIS IS SO EXCITING!
In addition, a sculptor who lives in Kerrville, Max Greiner, for many years has been maintaining a sculpture garden, honoring our Lord. Max has designed a CROSS that will capture that moment . . . and we will have a photo of that available on Monday morning on the Brief.
Please stay tuned for more details, as Max Greiner will be our second Guest Speaker on our call next Monday, October 9th, following Laurel Brooks from MyFaithVotes. We welcome Laurel back on our call, as she introduces a letter writing campaign to undergird the upcoming, critical pro-life vote in the State of Ohio.
You can hear both speakers next Monday at 8:00 p.m. EDT by calling:

Tucker Carlson Warns of "US Collapse" Amid Liberal Persecution of Donald Trump
|
|
The United States is in the middle of a “dangerous” and “revolutionary moment,” one that may result in the total “collapse” of the country. That was the message Tucker Carlson and Victor Davis Hanson conveyed to viewers on Monday’s “Tucker on X” program.
Hanson has long been associated with the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. He is also a Senior Fellow at the Claremont Institute. Both are considered the most prominent conservative intellectual think tanks in the country, though some Catholic academics have pointed out the flaws in the political philosophy that they adhere to.
Carlson began his show by observing that in democratic societies, it is the people who decide their leaders. But liberals do not allow that for their political opponents. Rather, their political attacks and myriad of lawsuits against Donald Trump prove they are ushering in “the most intolerant age in American history” and that they want full-on “totalitarianism.”
Hanson agreed with Carlson’s assessment, noting that the left has identified Trump as an “existential threat” and that they will deny him the presidency by “any means necessary.” Hanson also argued that liberals don’t have support from a majority of Americans, so they import illegal immigrants and exert pressure on cultural institutions as a surreptitious way to gain influence. “We don’t realize that we’re in the middle of a revolution. We think that we’re still playing with the same sidelines and parameters” as the left, he said. (LifeSiteNews) Read more here.

- Abba, it is true that you directed our forefathers to create a government determined by the people, but our forefathers also acknowledged and understood that You are the one who sets up kings and takes them down. We ask for the move of Holy Spirit that your word tells us is coming, to come NOW. We ask for people's minds and hearts to be turned to you, establishing revival, bringing millions of hearts into your kingdom.
Holy Spirit, we ask you to teach us to seek your face BEFORE we pray, asking you to align our hearts with your heart, with your intentions. Jesus, we acknowledge, just as our forefathers did, that you are God and there is no other, that our days are in Your hands, and YOU are over all things. We trust you, as we seek your face and pray, to accomplish all your good purposes for We the People and for the United States. We ask this in the name El Shaddai, God Almighty. AMEN and AMEN.
1 Joyful are people of integrity, who follow
the instructions of the Lord.
2 Joyful are those who obey his laws and
search for him with all their hearts.
3 They do not compromise with evil, and
they walk only in his paths.
(Psalm 119:1-3)

We Have Reached the Terminal Phase of the Greatest Debt Spiral in the History of the Human Race
|
|
If you are going to go out, you might as well do it with a bang. At the beginning of June, our national debt was sitting at $31,467,639,287,894.39. Today, it has risen to $33,442,148,619,617.43. That means that we have added almost two trillion dollars to the national debt in just three months. It is the largest single debt in the entire history of our planet, and it will never be paid off. Our debt spiral has reached a terminal phase, and all we can do now is prolong the agony. If we keep taking on more debt at an exponential rate, we may be able to extend our seemingly endless party for a little while longer. As for the bright future that our children and grandchildren were supposed to have, we destroyed that a long time ago, and so it doesn’t really matter what we do now.
What our politicians are doing to us is truly a crime against humanity.
And I am not just talking about the United States. All over the world, politicians have been on the greatest debt binge in the history of the human race, and for quite a few years it seemed like they were getting away with it. But now interest rates are rising and there is great turmoil in the bond markets. The following comes from CNN. (Go here)

Abba, there is fear driving our nation and the world financially. The Biden regime is continuing to make decisions and complete plans that intentionally add to the national debt which seems counterproductive to a more responsible path leading to a lowering of what we owe. Father God, we need your help! We ask you to block the Biden regime from destroying our nation's financial standing. Jesus, from our perspective, it would seem impossible to get that accomplished, but it's NOT too hard for you. We ask for circumstances to arise that will allow that level of change to happen. We ask you to orchestrate removing those who would crush our economy and replacing them with those whose hearts you know and trust to make financially ethical decisions Lord, give those who are called by your name eyes to see you moving, build our faith as we see changes come. We are asking for miracles as you defend the nation you called into existence for your purposes. We ask this in the name El Gibhor, Mighty God.
6 For a child is born to us, a son is given to us,
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty
God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)

Peace Covenant That Could Shock the World Coming Soon?
|
|
Will a "peace covenant" soon be announced that will permanently alter world history in a major way? For months, Israel and Saudi Arabia have been quietly negotiating a deal that would normalize relations between the two nations. But they aren't the only parties involved. Israel and Saudi Arabia both want formal security agreements with the United States as part of any agreement. In other words, if either of those two nations get attacked, the U.S. military would be required to intervene. The Saudis also want to develop a nuclear power program, and they want U.S. assistance with that. But the biggest barrier to a deal was always going to be the Palestinians.
The Saudis are insisting that any agreement must include major concessions from both the U.S. and the Israelis. And the Palestinians are publicly making it known that they will not accept any outcome that does not involve formal U.S. recognition of Palestinian statehood at the United Nations. At one time, such a demand would have killed negotiations, but apparently the Biden administration is very open to making such a move.
So much could change during the course of negotiations, and there is still a long way to go.
And if an agreement can be reached, it probably will not happen until 2024 at the earliest but you can be sure President Biden would love to promote himself as the man who brought "peace to the Middle East". (Prophecy News Watch) Read more here.

Abba, there appears to be much more to this agreement than meets the eye. You are the God of Israel, the US and Saudi Arabia, you know what is best for your people and each government. Father God we ask that your hand guide and direct all aspects of this peace agreement. You know what is righteous and good, we ask that you shift and change people's desires, demands and concessions to align with your intentions for all 3 of these nations.
We plead the blood of Jesus over every facet of this document, that the enemy will have no voice in the decision making process. Jesus, your word speaks of the Temple being rebuilt and sacrifices reinitiated. We ask for your perfect timing in all of this being accomplished, we ask that your people will be aware of the need for prayer blocking any plans of the enemy to change the timing and therefore the outcome of plans you have established. We ask this in the name Yahweh Shammah, the Lord is There, (The name ascribed to the Temple in Jerusalem, indicating that the once departed glory of the Lord had returned.)
4 Then the man brought me through the north gateway
to the front of the temple. I looked and saw
that the glory of the Lord filled the Temple of the Lord,
and I fell face down on the ground. (1 Kings 8:11)

1. 5 troops hurt in West Bank counterterrorism operation - Israel Hayom
Heavy exchange of fire between the IDF and terrorists took place overnight in the West Bank city of Tulkarm, with two terrorists killed in a separate incident.
An operation to apprehend wanted terrorists quickly escalated into a serious battle after explosive devices were hurled at the security forces. Five troops from the Border Police were injured in the clashes, including two who suffered serious injuries. According to an initial investigation, the injuries were caused by terrorists hurling a grenade that had originally been used by the security forces in the operation.
The IDF reported that the gunfire continued even as their forces withdrew, resulting in casualties. Furthermore, explosive devices thrown at the troops were detonated, adding to the volatile situation. (Read more)

3. In second terror attack in hours, Palestinians ambush Israeli family - World Israel News
An Israeli family narrowly survived a terrorist ambush near Ma’aleh Levonah in southern Samaria on Wednesday night, according to the Israel Defense Forces.

1. MUST SEE Video: Jim Hoft Interviews Dinesh D’Souza on His Upcoming Film, “Police State”- Coming This October - Gateway Pundit
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported the Biden regime’s political persecution of ordinary Americans is coming to the big screen this month. Filmmaker and conservative activist Dinesh D’Souza has collaborated with Dan Bongino in a chilling new film called “Police State.”
The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft spoke with Dinesh D’Souza this week about Police State.Dinesh described how the left is helping to build this expanding police state in America today.
Dinesh D’Souza: "It’s a scary film. Not because I’ve made a horror film using the techniques of cinematography, But it’s because America is becoming a scary place to live. Not for everybody, because there are going to be people on the left who say, “Well, I’m never going to be censored and the FBI is not going to come banging on my door.” And I go, “Well, that’s because you’re helping to build the police state.” So police states, when they are under construction, rely on a constituency to help build them up. And that’s the stage we’re in now. We’re not a full-fledged police stage. But it is amazing, Jim, to see how far we’ve come in a bad way in just a few years. It’s been a free fall in terms of protecting our liberties."
Dinesh described brilliantly the characteristics of a police state and how this fits with America today.
"The way I look at it in the big picture is I say, what are the characteristic features of unfree societies or police states abroad? Let’s look at North Korea, China, the old Soviet Union. Well, mass surveillance is one of them. Censorship is another. The attempt to create a one party state. Police states are almost always one party states. That doesn’t mean they don’t have opposition or elections. But the elections are farce. They are a sham. The opposition party is a token opposition party police states also criminalize political differences. They have political prisoners. They have ideological indoctrinations in the schools and also in the media. So look at how all these key elements of police states are now apparent. They’re visible, they’re pervasive in this country. And that’s why it is a little difficult today with a straight face to say that we are still the free society that we once proclaimed ourselves to be."
Dinesh D’Souza then goes into the history of the police state in America, and then he describes his own experience as a political prisoner of the Obama regime. (Read more)

Abba, this film is a true picture of what is happening in the lives of your kids and other regular citizens of our nation, and that is why it is so upsetting. Jesus, this should not be! This is NOT your heart for the United States, this is NOT what you created us to be. We ask that you use this film to stir up the righteous indignation of your intercessors, let this be a clarion call to all who are called by your name to seek your face and pray to destroy the plans of the enemy, and to pull down the strongholds of tyranny and governmental control over our country. We ask you to continue exposing all who are part of this demonic agenda. We ask that all who aligned their hearts with Satan and not with you be brought down and held accountable for their treasonous actions.
2 The kings of the earth prepare for battle;
the rulers plot together against
the Lord and against his anointed one.
3 "Let us break their chains," they cry.
"and free ourselves from slavery to God."
4 But the one who rules in heaven laughs,
The Lord scoffs at them.
5 Then in anger he rebukes them,
terrifying them with his fierce fury.

2. 10,000 Illegal Immigrants to Arrive Daily at US Border, Warns Mexican President – The Epoch Times
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has warned that the United States will soon see about 10,000 illegal immigrants per day arrive at its border with Mexico.
Such a large number of illegal immigrants are reaching Mexico’s northern border with the United States partly due to abount 6,000 illegal immigrants crossing from Guatemala into Mexico every day for the past week, President Obrador said
on Oct. 2, according to The Associated Press. The Mexican president criticized U.S. sanctions on nations such as Cuba and Venezuela, two nationalities that make up a significant portion of the illegal immigrant flow.
Mexico currently runs a government program that sends buses for migrants in the southern region, transporting thousands of these people to its northern border with the United States. (Read more)

- Biden may be stepping up his game at the U.S. borders, but will it be too little too late, Abba? Thank You that nothing is impossible with You. May each of Your intercessors and warriors spend time daily praying for this situation in their prayer language; we are at the end of ourselves and ask for Holy Spirit to pray through us what is needed at this time. We intercede for our North and South American borders that, in the days to come, the gates would only be open to those who meet all legal standards. Protect us from those already here who would bring crime, drugs, disease and terror; may they be found and deported or incarcerated.
Thank You that You can and will bring much good out of this colossal mess as we ask and repent before You. Help us, and have mercy, Lord, as we deal with the difficult consequences of our sins, day by day, as a nation, city, institution or as an individual. We earnestly pray that a national leader would call for a National Day of Repentance. May revival sweep over our nation, bringing millions of our citizens, and illegals already here, to Your salvation. In Yeshua’s mighty name, Amen.
- “…. Now, our God, hear the prayers and petitions of your servant. For your sake, Lord, look with favor on your desolate sanctuary. Give ear, our God, and hear; open your eyes and see the desolation of the [nation] that bears your Name. We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy. Lord, listen! Lord, forgive! Lord, hear and act! For your sake, my God, do not delay, because your [nation (US—in God We Trust)] and your people bear your Name.” (Daniel 9:17-19)

3. Ukraine’s Much Hyped Counter Offensive Meets Grim Reality – The Epoch Times
Each day, Ukrainian soldiers trudge over a morass of dried mud. They stop frequently, staying low to the ground. For much of the day, they hunker in ditches and dig small trenches while they wait for their Soviet-era mine-clearing vehicles to complete their laborious task.
They know that a Russian unit is nearby. Perhaps just behind the tree line.
Russia has amassed 100,000 troops and more than 500 battle tanks just east of here, past Bakhmut. None of the soldiers know where those Russian troops will deploy, but everyone knows that they will deploy. Maybe they already have. A day without contact is exceedingly rare.
They can only hope that the unit doesn't attack again. They have lost men already and can't afford to lose their mine-clearing capability.
If these Ukrainians are lucky, they'll advance the length of two football fields today. (Read more)
|
|
- Lord Jesus, we pray for Yeshua to be lifted up in the entire former Soviet Union and pray that this season of war between Ukraine and Russia would soon be over. Our deepest prayers are for You to comfort all those who mourn, to heal those who are broken in body and spirit, to provide tangible essential needs and to bring Your kingdom to come and Your will to be done in Ukraine and Russia as it is in Heaven. Turn the tide to righteousness, Abba. We call forth a spirit of forgiveness to reign.
We ask for souls to be saved, Abba, amen.
May the leaders of each nation on the sidelines hear Your voice and move in Your will and wisdom only.
- "From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands." (Acts 17:26)
"He makes nations great, and destroys them; he enlarges nations, and disperses them." (Job 12:23)

4. Navy Warn’s Pentagons Handling of Vaccine Mandate Will Result in Massive Readiness Crash – The Epoch Times
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s August 2021 military vaccine mandate weakened the U.S. military, and the repercussions still haven’t reached a pinnacle, according to a senior naval officer.
The Epoch Times spoke to Navy Commander Rob Green who actively serves today and risks retaliation for his views.
Emphasizing that his views don’t necessarily reflect those of the Department of Defense or Department of the Navy, Cmdr. Green said that while the military vaccine mandate was officially rescinded in January, it may have caused irreparable harm and a “looming” readiness crisis.
In a tell-all book "Defending the Constitution Behind Enemy Lines," Cmdr. Green shared a number of compelling human stories from those who fought back against the military mandate and analyzed those actions in light of similar actions taken by America’s Founding Fathers.
From the very beginning, Cmdr. Green argued that the mandate was “a blatantly unconstitutional order,” largely because service members were offered vaccines that were labeled as authorized for emergency use only, rather than having full FDA approval. (Read more)

|
- Precious Lord, we are so concerned about our military, its members, their readiness, and their morale. We ask that You would prepare a shift in the ranks of their leadership to replace the "woke" style of priorities with those that honor the traditional paths to a strong military. We bind away from them the ideas that are currently weakening our ability to recruit, train, and execute activities of combat. Lord, please heal those wounded by the jab and restore confidence in military leadership. Thank You, Lord, for fighting this battle for us.
- "Ye shall not fear them: for the Lord your God he shall fight for you." (Deuteronomy 3:22)

5. Oil Supply Fears Grow as US Drilling Activity Slows, OPEC to Keep Cuts Intact – The Epoch Times
Global energy markets could face tighter inventories heading into 2024 and beyond as U.S. shale companies are not keen to expand drilling activity, and the world's largest oil cartel is not bolstering production.
U.S. crude oil prices have slumped about 7 percent since hitting a 2023 high of about $95 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent, the international benchmark for oil prices, has also trended down after flirting with $95 a barrel on London's ICE Futures exchange.
But while the march toward $100 has stalled amid rising-rate concerns, industry experts believe that crude prices will continue to hover at around $90 on tighter supplies. However, even if the energy commodity touches the triple-digit market, global financial markets should not anticipate that companies will take advantage of the situation by increasing output. (Read more)
|
|
- Father God, we come against the demonic plan to cut oil production now and in the future, as we see what the current administration has planned for our country. Lord, take over this situation that is designed to harm our country and make it vulnerable to shortages and high prices. Lord, do a quick work in the hearts and minds of our leaders or else remove them entirely. Thank You, Father.
- "It is an abomination for kings to commit wickedness, for a throne is established by righteousness." (Proverbs 16:12)

6. Children Being Taken: Horrific Video Reveals US Govt is Actively Facilitating a HUGE Child Trafficking Ring Across America – NewsTarget.com
A disturbing expose shows how the U.S. federal government is supporting the world’s biggest child trafficking ring with a steady stream of migrant children.
Muckraker released a video on X
showing unsettling footage of young children being placed in large vans with tinted windows as their shady escorts hid their name badges and instructed them not to speak to reporters. Unfortunately, these children's fate is a big mystery, and there are thousands more just like them who disappear in the U.S. on a regular basis.
According to the publication, around 350,000 children enter the country unaccompanied every year, and 85,000 of those children have gone missing
. Many are forced into a life of involuntary servitude, commercial sex trafficking and other horrors that potentially include organ harvesting.
Many of these children come from remote areas of South and Central America. While some children are lured from their villages by radio ads that tempt them with the idea of enjoying a better life in the U.S., other children are kidnapped or even sold to traffickers by their own parents. (Read more)
|
|
- How horrible, Lord, to hear that our very own government is funding the trafficking of children by their lax border policies. Lord of the Universe, we ask that You would stop this activity and remove those who are responsible for it. We pray that word would spread of the awful way these innocent children are treated when they arrive here and who even knows what happens to them after they leave the holding facilities. Mighty Lord, please protect them and stop this gross abuse. Please focus a spotlight on this and the people responsible for continuing this evil and remove them.
- "And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea." (Mark 9:42)

7. WATCH as Dr. Astrid Stuckelberger Exposes Secret Global Health Dictatorship Agenda of UN and WHO – Pandemic.news
An insider who spent decades working in the “belly of the beast” over at the United Nations (UN) and World Health Organization (WHO), and who knows full well how utterly corrupt these two globalist bodies have become, is coming forward
to tell all about what she observed while working behind the curtain.
Dr. Astrid Stuckelberger of AstridStuckelberger.com
joined the Health Ranger this week to discuss various matters related to the true secret agenda of the UN and WHO, which have veered greatly from their original stated mission of helping to lift the poor and lowly out of their poverty.
Dr. Stuckelberger spent about 30 years conducting research in public health and preventive medicine, as well as three years at the WHO specifically dealing with pandemic preparedness management and the implementation of global health regulations that came into effect between 2008 and 2013.
She has seen it all, and after dealing with both the good and the bad within these two globalist bodies, Dr. Stuckelberger has a whole lot to say about what she described to the Health Ranger as “many contradictions at the UN” concerning the differences between its stated mission and its true secret mission – watch the interview in full from Brighteon.com below. (Read more)

- Dear LORD, Thank YOU for people like Dr. Stuckelberger who is a truth bearer. The WHO appears to have beliefs that contradict their actions. Make them accountable for their bad decisions and let their motives be known to the world. In YOUR name. AMEN and AMEN

8. RFK Jr says WHO Should be Defunded if it Continues to Focus on medical tyranny Instead of Health – Pandemic.news
The World Health Organization (WHO) should be defunded if it doubles down on medical tyranny instead of returning to its actual focus of health, according to Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.).
“I understand how the WHO works, and [it] has completely lost its way,” he said. “And now, it’s making a power grab to try to give itself the power to declare pandemics, and then impose healthcare policies on its member nations. It’s really almost laughable; it’s so insane.”
According to the 2024 presidential hopeful, the global health body used to engage in useful endeavors such as supporting local health clinics, local agriculture, economic development and clean water in Africa and other places.
“That’s what the WHO ought to be doing. It shouldn’t be dictating global health policies or … [involving itself] in these giant vaccination programs,” RFK Jr. said. “They can’t do that; I’m not going to let them do anything like that.” (Read more)

|
- Dear FATHER, RFK is right. Help us to defund the WHO. We certainly don't need them taking power over us, declaring pandemics, and imposing their policies. Please stop this immediately. In JESUS name. AMEN and AMEN.

Straight, But Uncomfortable, Talk
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, October 5, 2023
The aftermath of a handful of Republicans and all the Democrats in the US House of Representatives removing Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) in a historical vote is one of confusion. Democrats are being Democrats. They will vote for most anything that disrupts the Republicans. And Republicans are being Republicans, unable to find unity on much of anything. This is the case where eight congressmen changed the course of history. It should be an object lesson to all that if you believe in what you are doing and take a stand, even against seemingly insurmountable odds, you may be rewarded with success. Hopefully, the ousting of McCarthy will wake up Republicans and spur them to be a true opposition party.
For decades, Americans have seen Republicans in Congress talk a conservative, middle America game. They make great proclamations about sanctity of life, traditional marriage, fiscal responsibility, socialist healthcare, bodily autonomy, energy independence, freedom of speech, freedom of self-defense, religious freedom, voting integrity, border security, and the list goes on and on. But even when in the majority, Republicans have been unable to slow the Democrat juggernaut on the bulk of these issues. It’s gotten so bad that the current Democratic Administration openly supports public school-sanctioned sexual grooming of our kids and redistributing multi-billions of our tax money to frivolous Democrat causes like climate change, Ukraine, and electric cars.

Nuclear drills: Putin urged to test atomic bomb
|
|
|
Russia is reportedly holding nationwide drills today to practise evacuating civilians in the event of a nuclear conflict.
Leaked documents published by Baza, a Russian media outlet with links to Vladimir Putin's security services, indicated the extensive nature of Tuesday's test. Rescue workers will be tasked with removing "large numbers of people from hypothetical 'radiation zones'", The Telegraph reported.
While Russia holds civil defence drills annually, this will be the first time they have happened on such a large scale, said Newsweek. The test will assume the nation is "at least partially under martial law", and envisage that "up to 70 percent of the country's housing facilities have been destroyed".
However, it is "unclear how many civilians, if any, will be involved", The Telegraph added.
The drills come as the head of a Kremlin-backed nuclear research centre called on Russia to "test an atomic bomb to intimidate the West", The Times reported.
Mikhail Kovalchuk, head of the Kurchatov Institute, "is said to be close to Putin" and suggested an "atomic weapons test in the Arctic Ocean as a show of force", the newspaper added. (Yahoo News) Read more here.

- Father God, we are grateful that this article was published on Wednesday, and that, apparently, nothing happened. Thank You, Lord!
We thank You, too, that we can stand in faith, believing, that "nothing is impossible with you." We now ask that, for any world leader who may have access to these weapons, You would send forth Your angels to stand between their finger and the "button" that can be pushed, launching all of us into nuclear.
Come, Lord Jesus, we pray. Show us Your mercy. Amen and amen.

Reps. Jordan, Scalise Enter Speaker Race
|
|

With Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) ousted as speaker of the House on Oct. 3, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), chairman of the powerful House Judiciary Committee, and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) are the first to throw their hats into the ring to succeed him.
After the motion to vacate the chair passed 216–210 on Oct. 3, with eight Republicans joining 208 Democrats voting in favor, Mr. McCarthy announced that he wouldn't run for speaker again and said he is undecided about whether he will remain in Congress. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) has been named as speaker pro tempore until a replacement is voted in.

- Holy God, this is such an important decision! We ask that those who are now putting forth their names to be considered to be chosen as the next Speaker of the House of Representatives weigh this decision very carefully. We ask that each one would consider what they may give up in order to take this seat. We ask for wisdom, in Your Name, amen and amen.
- "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." (James 1:5)

Founder, JAG (The Judicial Action Group)
Dear Friends,
Below is a post by Dutch Sheets from Give Him 15 wherein he discusses our prayer gathering Monday in D.C. to Consecrate the Supreme Court. To listen to all of Dutch's remarks, go here.

"I believe the Court has entered a new season that requires us to increase our prayer cover for them. The U.S. Supreme Court remains the court of last resort with authority to correct the gross abuses of our Justice system to persecute political enemies and to interfere with elections. The demonic left knows this and that is one of the main reasons why those who hate America have targeted the Supreme Court with unprecedented pressure.
Like Esther in the Bible, the Supreme Court has been called “for such a time as this.” Therefore, the Justices must not acquiesce but must embrace their mission. Please pray for them like the future of our Nation depends on it. It does."

He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war.
He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud;
He shall prevail against His enemies."

Pleasant surprise greets scientists opening asteroid sample dropped from space
|
|
"It’s really spectacular to have all that material there," one scientist said upon discovering extra material along with the Bennu sample. NASA is seeking information into the origins of our solar system by analyzing the asteroid sample.
Scientists have taken their first glimpse of a sample collected from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu — and stumbled upon a good bit more than they expected.
When they opened the canister containing the sample on September 26, the researchers discovered an abundance of dark, fine-grained material on the inside of the container’s lid and base surrounding the mechanism used to collect the extraterrestrial rocks and soil. That unexpected debris could reveal key insights about the asteroid before the primary sample is analyzed.
The sample’s historic landing in the Utah desert September 24 marked the culmination of NASA’s 7-year OSIRIS-Rex mission, which traveled to Bennu some 200 million miles (320 million kilometers) from Earth, touched down on the asteroid and then flew back by Earth for the sample drop. (Total trip distance: some 3.86 billion miles.)
The mission team whisked away the canister the day after its arrival to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, which has a clean room specially built for careful analysis of the cosmic sample. Read More

Honoring the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem:
|
|
Christians, Jews Become 'Prayer Shields' Following Bible's Directive to Pray for Peace of Jerusalem
|
|
JERUSALEM, Israel – In Psalm 122, the Bible commands believers to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and one group has taken the lead to increase worldwide prayer for what the Bible calls "the city of the great King." For the last 19 years, the Eagles Wings organization has mobilized Christians and Jews to fulfill the command of Psalm 122. Bishop Robert Stearns and the late Pastor Jack Hayford began the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem, which takes place annually on the first Sunday of October. Stearns told CBN News,"Pastor Jack Hayford and I sensed this burden from the Lord to call the global body of Christ to remember the centrality of the story of Jerusalem – its past, its present, and its prophetic future. And that the church needs to be aligned in intercession with God's purposes for Jerusalem."
Since its beginning in 2004, the day of prayer has expanded its global reach. "We have representatives in 172 nations. The material is in 29 languages. There now is a children's curriculum – teaching children the importance of Jerusalem – teaching them why it's central to God's story on earth." Stearns explained. "This year at the event here in Jerusalem, we have close to 50 pastors who've come from 22 nations all over the world to celebrate and pray for the peace of Jerusalem." Many Israeli leaders see this prayer effort as a blessing to Israel and the Jewish people. "It strengthens us a lot where we feel it's not only a thing that we know, it's the thing that we feel," explained Dani Dayan, chairman of Israel's Holocaust Memorial, Yad Vashem. "The care, the fraternity of evangelical Christians all over the world with the state of Israel, with the Jewish people And therefore, that contributes a lot to our sense of security, to our determination to continue to fight for the Jewish people's perseverance."

Scripture: He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Hebrews 13:5
Lyrics:
There’s One who can comfort when all else fails,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus;
A Savior who saves tho’ the foe assails,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus:
Once He traveled the way we go,
Felt the pangs of deceit and woe;
Who more perfectly then can know,
Than Jesus, blessèd Jesus?
He heareth the cry of the soul distressed,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus;
He healeth the wounded, He giveth rest,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus:
When from loved ones we’re called to part,
When the tears in our anguish start,
None can comfort the breaking heart,
Like Jesus, blessèd Jesus.
He never forsakes in the darkest hour,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus;
His arm is around us with keeping power,So
Jesus, blessèd Jesus:
When we enter the shadow land
When at Jordan we trembling stand,
He will meet us with outstretched hand,
This Jesus, blessèd Jesus.
What joy it will be when we see His face,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus;
Forever to sing of His love and grace,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus:
There at home on that shining shore,
With the loved ones gone on before,
We will praise Him forevermore,
Our Jesus, blessèd Jesus.
