🎙️ The Power of Prayer with Margie Fleurant 🎙️

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,240
You pray it and he can answer it.

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:06,040
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:07,680
avails much.

4
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,040
God will put the prayer in your heart to pray

5
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:12,320
so that he can answer it.

6
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,080
Goes into the hearts of the people,

7
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,120
doesn't return void, it produces results.

8
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:19,000
Hello everybody.

9
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,120
I'm gonna go ahead and mute everyone.

10
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:22,560
I have my notes here.

11
00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,760
Everyone's muted for now until we pray.

12
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:27,680
Can you hear me?

13
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:28,520
Okay.

14
00:00:29,420 --> 00:00:33,940
So Father, we just thank you that you are God

15
00:00:33,940 --> 00:00:36,460
and that you are our God

16
00:00:36,460 --> 00:00:40,500
and that we can come boldly to the throne of grace

17
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:44,060
to obtain mercy and help in our time of need,

18
00:00:44,060 --> 00:00:49,060
not just for ourselves, but on the behalf of others.

19
00:00:49,220 --> 00:00:51,740
And Father, that is our focus today

20
00:00:51,740 --> 00:00:53,740
and I thank you for the Spirit of God,

21
00:00:53,740 --> 00:00:55,340
the Holy Spirit of God,

22
00:00:55,340 --> 00:00:59,340
who will not only lead, guide, and direct our time together

23
00:00:59,340 --> 00:01:01,780
and those who are listening on the replay,

24
00:01:01,780 --> 00:01:04,940
but I thank you that the Holy Spirit of God

25
00:01:04,940 --> 00:01:09,100
will cause the ears of the listeners to hear

26
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:11,260
and their eyes to be open.

27
00:01:11,260 --> 00:01:14,740
And I thank you for impartation of the spirit of prayer

28
00:01:14,740 --> 00:01:19,740
that those who hear will be motivated like never before

29
00:01:20,460 --> 00:01:23,580
to stand in the gap, to go before your throne,

30
00:01:23,580 --> 00:01:25,580
to lay one hand on you

31
00:01:25,580 --> 00:01:29,740
and one hand on the petition of prayer.

32
00:01:29,740 --> 00:01:33,020
So we give you all the praise, all the honor as usual,

33
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:36,260
and all the glory for everything that we do today

34
00:01:36,260 --> 00:01:38,820
in Jesus' name, amen.

35
00:01:38,820 --> 00:01:40,540
So hello, everybody.

36
00:01:40,540 --> 00:01:43,780
It's nice to be here with everyone today.

37
00:01:43,780 --> 00:01:46,140
I'm going to, the prayer focus today

38
00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:51,140
is going to be on prayer for leadership.

39
00:01:51,140 --> 00:01:53,940
And we're going to talk about prayer for leadership

40
00:01:53,940 --> 00:01:56,940
in our government and then I'm going to switch it

41
00:01:56,940 --> 00:02:01,940
to briefly talking about prayer for the ministry leaders.

42
00:02:03,340 --> 00:02:07,860
It says here in 1 Timothy chapter two,

43
00:02:07,860 --> 00:02:10,580
it says, therefore I exhort,

44
00:02:10,580 --> 00:02:15,580
first of all, that supplications, prayers, intercessions,

45
00:02:16,060 --> 00:02:19,580
and giving of thanks be made for all men

46
00:02:19,580 --> 00:02:24,580
for kings and all who are in authority, that why?

47
00:02:25,220 --> 00:02:28,860
That we may lead a quiet and peaceable life

48
00:02:28,860 --> 00:02:31,940
in all godliness and reverence.

49
00:02:31,940 --> 00:02:34,340
For this is good and acceptable

50
00:02:34,340 --> 00:02:36,620
in the sight of God our savior

51
00:02:36,620 --> 00:02:40,540
who desires that all men be saved

52
00:02:40,540 --> 00:02:43,380
and come to the knowledge of the truth.

53
00:02:43,380 --> 00:02:46,080
So interestingly for me personally,

54
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,840
when I first began to learn how to pray,

55
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,720
I would just do what the Bible said.

56
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,860
I would pray first of all,

57
00:02:52,860 --> 00:02:56,060
for all those that are in authority, why?

58
00:02:56,060 --> 00:02:59,240
So that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life.

59
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,820
So those that are in authority,

60
00:03:00,820 --> 00:03:03,300
those that are in authority over our government,

61
00:03:03,300 --> 00:03:05,600
those who are in the Senate,

62
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,740
those who are in the House of Representatives,

63
00:03:07,740 --> 00:03:10,580
those who are part of the Supreme Court, why?

64
00:03:10,580 --> 00:03:13,940
So that we can lead a quiet and peaceable life

65
00:03:13,940 --> 00:03:16,340
in all godliness and honesty.

66
00:03:16,340 --> 00:03:20,180
You know, the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord

67
00:03:20,180 --> 00:03:24,220
and he can turn it whatsoever way he wills.

68
00:03:24,220 --> 00:03:27,740
And prayer opens up the door for God to work.

69
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:31,060
So when we begin to pray, we begin to petition

70
00:03:31,060 --> 00:03:33,100
and we begin to ask God,

71
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:35,960
we're not controlling people by our prayers.

72
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,980
We're not practicing witchcraft by our prayers.

73
00:03:39,980 --> 00:03:41,420
We're praying the word of God,

74
00:03:41,420 --> 00:03:42,900
we're praying the will of God,

75
00:03:42,900 --> 00:03:45,220
we're praying according to the will of God,

76
00:03:45,220 --> 00:03:47,420
especially when we pray in tongues.

77
00:03:47,420 --> 00:03:52,420
And as a result, God can come in and he can intervene

78
00:03:53,180 --> 00:03:56,900
and he can work on the heart of the leader.

79
00:03:56,900 --> 00:03:58,900
And I believe prayer works.

80
00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:01,060
Prayer opens up the door for God to work.

81
00:04:01,060 --> 00:04:04,140
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man

82
00:04:04,140 --> 00:04:06,060
avails much.

83
00:04:06,060 --> 00:04:09,360
And Jesus, God said, you have not because you ask not,

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,240
but when you begin to ask and petition

85
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,180
on the behalf of the leaders,

86
00:04:14,180 --> 00:04:17,980
God said, I can come in and the heart of the game

87
00:04:17,980 --> 00:04:21,700
will be in my hand and I can gently guide them

88
00:04:21,700 --> 00:04:25,420
according to what is best in this regard for our nation.

89
00:04:25,420 --> 00:04:27,160
And I feel like I should say this,

90
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,260
whether we agree with who's in office

91
00:04:29,260 --> 00:04:31,260
or we don't agree with who's in office.

92
00:04:31,260 --> 00:04:32,900
And none of that matters.

93
00:04:32,900 --> 00:04:35,260
What matters is the word of God.

94
00:04:35,260 --> 00:04:39,760
The word of God says, God said, I exhort first of all,

95
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,500
that we should pray for our leadership.

96
00:04:42,500 --> 00:04:47,500
And as we do, it causes our nation to live in peace.

97
00:04:48,180 --> 00:04:49,100
I think there's a scripture,

98
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:51,340
I don't know exactly where it is.

99
00:04:51,340 --> 00:04:56,340
When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice.

100
00:04:56,700 --> 00:04:57,540
Yeah.

101
00:04:57,540 --> 00:04:59,900
So, it's important that we pray.

102
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:01,740
And I'm gonna share a dream I had

103
00:05:01,740 --> 00:05:04,260
and I wasn't planning on it,

104
00:05:04,260 --> 00:05:06,880
but when I was here the other morning,

105
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,700
I had a dream and I knew it was for the nation.

106
00:05:10,700 --> 00:05:13,500
And in the dream, I'm not gonna tell all of it,

107
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:18,500
but I dreamed that our prayers were influencing,

108
00:05:22,900 --> 00:05:25,820
it was like a big ship.

109
00:05:25,820 --> 00:05:28,740
And we, the church, were at the steering wheel.

110
00:05:28,740 --> 00:05:33,740
And as we prayed, the ship that was going one direction

111
00:05:33,980 --> 00:05:37,180
was being turned and was turning to the right

112
00:05:37,180 --> 00:05:40,320
and going in another direction.

113
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,260
And the Lord said to me, he said,

114
00:05:42,260 --> 00:05:45,580
it's not a time for my people to stop praying.

115
00:05:45,580 --> 00:05:48,060
Just because certain things are changing,

116
00:05:48,060 --> 00:05:51,000
that doesn't mean we stop praying

117
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,420
and we stop being aggressive in our prayers.

118
00:05:53,420 --> 00:05:55,540
That ship is turning

119
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:59,180
and we wanna keep that ship on course.

120
00:05:59,180 --> 00:06:00,020
Why?

121
00:06:00,020 --> 00:06:03,660
So that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life

122
00:06:03,660 --> 00:06:05,340
in all godliness and honesty.

123
00:06:05,340 --> 00:06:08,500
So, how do we pray for a president, the Senate,

124
00:06:08,500 --> 00:06:10,200
the Congress, House of Representatives?

125
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,140
How do we pray for these men and women

126
00:06:12,140 --> 00:06:13,660
that are in authority?

127
00:06:13,660 --> 00:06:17,140
I believe that the best prayer that we can pray

128
00:06:17,140 --> 00:06:20,340
is that God would give them wisdom.

129
00:06:20,340 --> 00:06:22,460
Wisdom in decision-making,

130
00:06:22,460 --> 00:06:26,180
wisdom in regards to what needs to be done

131
00:06:26,180 --> 00:06:28,820
specifically for our nation.

132
00:06:28,820 --> 00:06:31,160
So I think we should pray for wisdom.

133
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,740
If there's a leader that's in office,

134
00:06:33,740 --> 00:06:36,480
that's a Christian, that's professing Christian,

135
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,040
then we need to pray that God would open up the eyes

136
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,900
of their heart, the eyes of their understanding,

137
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:44,440
give them a spirit of what?

138
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,020
Wisdom and revelation and the knowledge of Him.

139
00:06:48,020 --> 00:06:50,980
So we can pray also in regards to our nation,

140
00:06:50,980 --> 00:06:53,620
we can pray Psalms 91 over our nation.

141
00:06:55,660 --> 00:06:58,020
That God would protect our nation,

142
00:06:58,020 --> 00:06:59,940
He would protect our leaders.

143
00:06:59,940 --> 00:07:01,780
I feel like even for our president,

144
00:07:01,780 --> 00:07:04,260
there's been two assassination attempts.

145
00:07:04,260 --> 00:07:05,740
We are not done.

146
00:07:05,740 --> 00:07:06,880
That ship is turning,

147
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,360
but that we need to continue in prayer.

148
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,660
And the Bible says, and watch.

149
00:07:11,660 --> 00:07:15,620
That word watch means to be spiritually perceptive,

150
00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:19,620
watch and pray, you know, be spiritually alert.

151
00:07:19,620 --> 00:07:22,140
It means looking on the inside.

152
00:07:22,140 --> 00:07:26,020
And if you have an alert or a grieving in your spirit,

153
00:07:26,020 --> 00:07:28,380
or feel like something's not right,

154
00:07:28,380 --> 00:07:30,700
or you have your leader, the ministry,

155
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:33,440
the leader on your heart,

156
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,180
and you don't know why you have a love for them,

157
00:07:36,180 --> 00:07:38,140
that is a prayer assignment.

158
00:07:38,140 --> 00:07:42,860
So, you know, God doesn't always give dreams and visions,

159
00:07:42,860 --> 00:07:44,940
I mean, to everyone all the time,

160
00:07:44,940 --> 00:07:48,180
but we are to be led by our spirit in prayer.

161
00:07:48,180 --> 00:07:51,060
So if we have a love for our leaders,

162
00:07:51,060 --> 00:07:54,540
if we have a grieving in our spirit,

163
00:07:54,540 --> 00:07:56,620
if we have something on the inside,

164
00:07:56,620 --> 00:08:00,440
or we just keep seeing His face or her face before us,

165
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,220
we need to yield to that again,

166
00:08:03,220 --> 00:08:07,180
because that is a prayer assignment.

167
00:08:07,180 --> 00:08:09,620
That's watching and praying.

168
00:08:09,620 --> 00:08:12,460
That's prophetically praying.

169
00:08:12,460 --> 00:08:16,480
It's knowing something on the inside isn't right.

170
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,940
And instead of just letting it go,

171
00:08:18,940 --> 00:08:22,860
it's yielding over to the Holy Spirit

172
00:08:22,860 --> 00:08:26,260
and saying, I'm gonna stand in the gap,

173
00:08:26,260 --> 00:08:27,900
I'm gonna put up a hedge,

174
00:08:27,900 --> 00:08:30,500
I'm gonna surround my leader with faith,

175
00:08:30,500 --> 00:08:32,500
with love, with protection,

176
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:34,620
I'm gonna release the angels of God,

177
00:08:34,620 --> 00:08:36,460
they'll encamp around about them.

178
00:08:36,460 --> 00:08:40,380
And that kind of praying is going to abort the plans

179
00:08:40,380 --> 00:08:43,140
of the enemy against those that are in authority

180
00:08:43,140 --> 00:08:44,160
in our nation.

181
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,900
And I feel very strongly that we need to continue in prayer.

182
00:08:48,900 --> 00:08:52,660
I think there's a lot of hidden things that are going on

183
00:08:52,660 --> 00:08:55,200
that God wants to abort.

184
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,260
And the beauty of the Holy Spirit and us as believers

185
00:08:58,260 --> 00:09:00,460
is, and the prophetic people especially,

186
00:09:00,460 --> 00:09:05,460
is we can have a sense when the enemy's trying to get in.

187
00:09:05,460 --> 00:09:07,380
And because of the Holy Spirit,

188
00:09:07,380 --> 00:09:11,100
we can abort it and we can put a stop to it.

189
00:09:11,100 --> 00:09:15,260
So I feel like it's not a time for us to draw back,

190
00:09:15,260 --> 00:09:17,540
it's a time for us to keep praying,

191
00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:20,620
keep pressing in, praying always,

192
00:09:20,620 --> 00:09:24,740
and watching there onto with all perseverance.

193
00:09:24,740 --> 00:09:26,900
And just staying on the wall.

194
00:09:26,900 --> 00:09:29,860
The watchmen are the ones that watch, right?

195
00:09:29,860 --> 00:09:31,440
That watch and pray.

196
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,400
And in the natural, watchmen are set on the walls

197
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:40,400
of a city and they watch to make sure that bad people

198
00:09:41,900 --> 00:09:43,460
don't get into the city.

199
00:09:43,460 --> 00:09:46,220
I'm just simplifying it, right?

200
00:09:46,220 --> 00:09:49,300
So those of us that are intercessors and believers

201
00:09:49,300 --> 00:09:52,460
and praying people, we are the watchmen that's set

202
00:09:52,460 --> 00:09:57,460
on the walls of our own nation or our own state, all right?

203
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,380
We are the ones that are on the walls.

204
00:10:01,380 --> 00:10:03,020
And because of the prophetic,

205
00:10:03,020 --> 00:10:04,500
because of how we've been trained,

206
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:07,700
we can see the truth will come in from the farm.

207
00:10:07,700 --> 00:10:09,980
The devil's not gonna just let go and say,

208
00:10:09,980 --> 00:10:14,220
oh no, we'll just let America rise, let America shine,

209
00:10:14,220 --> 00:10:17,700
let America be everything it's God's called America to be

210
00:10:17,700 --> 00:10:19,100
in God we trust.

211
00:10:19,100 --> 00:10:21,300
America, I'm just gonna let it happen.

212
00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:26,300
No, the enemy has come to steal, kill and destroy.

213
00:10:27,340 --> 00:10:30,060
He wants to continue to bring darkness.

214
00:10:30,060 --> 00:10:32,500
He wants to continue to bring havoc.

215
00:10:32,500 --> 00:10:36,980
He wants to continue to bring fires and floods

216
00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:38,700
and hurricanes and all these things.

217
00:10:38,700 --> 00:10:39,580
Why?

218
00:10:39,580 --> 00:10:41,820
Because the enemy has a mission

219
00:10:41,820 --> 00:10:44,300
against the United States of America.

220
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:48,980
His mission is to kill, steal and destroy.

221
00:10:48,980 --> 00:10:53,980
And of course he does not want God to be in God we trust

222
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,740
once again, the supreme one in our nation.

223
00:10:58,740 --> 00:11:00,780
So we need to continue to pray.

224
00:11:00,780 --> 00:11:02,660
We need to continue to watch

225
00:11:02,660 --> 00:11:06,460
and we need to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.

226
00:11:06,460 --> 00:11:09,980
So that wasn't in my notes, but it was all good.

227
00:11:09,980 --> 00:11:11,860
Anyway, I think we need to be sensitive

228
00:11:11,860 --> 00:11:13,500
to the leadings of the Holy Spirit.

229
00:11:13,500 --> 00:11:15,100
This is what I'm keep getting in my heart.

230
00:11:15,100 --> 00:11:18,220
I'm not gonna get off it till I'm led to get off it.

231
00:11:18,220 --> 00:11:20,540
We need Father, let's just pray right now.

232
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:22,580
I'm gonna pray for everyone right now.

233
00:11:22,580 --> 00:11:25,900
In the name of Jesus, I thank you Father

234
00:11:25,900 --> 00:11:27,540
for those that are listening.

235
00:11:27,540 --> 00:11:30,940
All of us Father, I thank you for those

236
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:33,180
that are listening now live

237
00:11:33,180 --> 00:11:36,660
and those that are listening to the replay.

238
00:11:36,660 --> 00:11:41,060
I pray Father that the prophetic, the Holy Spirit,

239
00:11:41,060 --> 00:11:45,820
the spirit of seeing and knowing would be

240
00:11:45,820 --> 00:11:50,820
in greater manifestation in us so that we can be

241
00:11:52,860 --> 00:11:55,580
the prophetically praying people

242
00:11:55,580 --> 00:11:57,780
that you have called us to be.

243
00:11:57,780 --> 00:12:00,460
Father, give us those dreams, give us those alerts,

244
00:12:00,460 --> 00:12:04,740
give us those grievance, give us that love

245
00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:07,660
so that we can abort the plans of the enemy

246
00:12:07,660 --> 00:12:08,580
in the name of Jesus.

247
00:12:08,580 --> 00:12:11,460
So I thank you for a fresh awakening

248
00:12:11,460 --> 00:12:15,460
on the inside of every person who's listening to this

249
00:12:15,460 --> 00:12:18,780
now and on the replay in Jesus' name.

250
00:12:18,780 --> 00:12:22,580
Father, I just speak over them, Psalms 92, 10,

251
00:12:22,580 --> 00:12:27,580
that you would anoint them and us with fresh oil.

252
00:12:28,140 --> 00:12:29,540
Now just lift your hands right now.

253
00:12:29,540 --> 00:12:33,220
So Father, we just thank you for the fresh oil.

254
00:12:33,220 --> 00:12:36,420
Father, give us the prayer assignments once again.

255
00:12:36,420 --> 00:12:38,980
Father, we ask that you forgive us for the times

256
00:12:38,980 --> 00:12:41,860
that we ignored the Holy Spirit

257
00:12:41,860 --> 00:12:45,660
and we ask that you give us the fresh assignments again

258
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:49,780
and the fresh oil that we need in Jesus' name.

259
00:12:49,780 --> 00:12:52,540
Amen.

260
00:12:52,540 --> 00:12:54,460
Praise you, Jesus.

261
00:12:54,460 --> 00:12:57,660
I believe there's gonna be a revival of the prayer movement

262
00:12:57,660 --> 00:13:00,780
and I prophesied that in the name of Jesus.

263
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:03,900
We are a nation under God.

264
00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:08,860
We are a nation who is under the umbrella of God

265
00:13:08,860 --> 00:13:11,340
and I believe that with this revival

266
00:13:11,340 --> 00:13:14,260
that we've all prophesied and spoke about and have seen,

267
00:13:14,260 --> 00:13:17,260
I believe it's beginning.

268
00:13:17,260 --> 00:13:21,180
There's like a song that we used to sing back in the day.

269
00:13:21,180 --> 00:13:26,180
It's beginning to rain, rain, rain.

270
00:13:26,260 --> 00:13:29,540
Hear the voice of the Father

271
00:13:29,540 --> 00:13:34,540
saying, Whosoever will come drink of this water.

272
00:13:37,620 --> 00:13:42,620
He's promised to pour His Spirit out

273
00:13:42,820 --> 00:13:45,940
on His sons and His daughters.

274
00:13:45,940 --> 00:13:48,780
So if you're thirsty and dry,

275
00:13:48,780 --> 00:13:51,380
lift your hands to the sky.

276
00:13:51,380 --> 00:13:54,580
It's beginning to rain.

277
00:13:54,580 --> 00:13:56,500
I believe it's beginning to rain

278
00:13:56,500 --> 00:13:58,780
in the United States of America

279
00:13:58,780 --> 00:14:01,300
and as we continue to stand in the gap

280
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:04,260
and believe God and pray for our leaders,

281
00:14:04,260 --> 00:14:08,540
it's gonna cause the rain in the time of the latter rain,

282
00:14:08,540 --> 00:14:11,900
which I believe is now, to continue to form.

283
00:14:11,900 --> 00:14:13,420
There was one of the prophets that said,

284
00:14:13,420 --> 00:14:17,620
I see a cloud the size of what was it?

285
00:14:17,620 --> 00:14:19,540
A man's hand, right?

286
00:14:19,540 --> 00:14:21,820
A fist and you know what?

287
00:14:21,820 --> 00:14:25,180
I can see that, but that cloud is getting closer

288
00:14:25,180 --> 00:14:27,740
and closer and closer and I believe

289
00:14:27,740 --> 00:14:31,940
we're gonna have a revival of the wind of God,

290
00:14:31,940 --> 00:14:34,460
the rain of God and the presence of God

291
00:14:34,460 --> 00:14:37,260
and this is only the beginning.

292
00:14:37,260 --> 00:14:39,620
The ship is turning.

293
00:14:39,620 --> 00:14:44,140
We've got to keep, maintain the momentum

294
00:14:44,140 --> 00:14:48,500
of where our nation is at, okay?

295
00:14:48,500 --> 00:14:52,340
So that was all not what I had planned to say.

296
00:14:52,340 --> 00:14:54,020
I'm just gonna talk very briefly

297
00:14:54,020 --> 00:14:56,100
about praying for your ministry leader.

298
00:14:57,060 --> 00:14:58,780
Not long, because we're gonna make sure

299
00:14:58,780 --> 00:15:00,380
we have enough time to pray.

300
00:15:01,460 --> 00:15:03,900
If the devil can get to the top,

301
00:15:03,900 --> 00:15:05,300
he can get to the people

302
00:15:05,300 --> 00:15:09,780
and I've seen it over and over and over

303
00:15:09,780 --> 00:15:14,780
that anytime a ministry leader is about to enter into,

304
00:15:15,020 --> 00:15:18,420
Kennedy Hagen called them or Jesus told Kenneth Hagen,

305
00:15:18,420 --> 00:15:22,460
enter into phases of another ministry

306
00:15:22,460 --> 00:15:25,220
or a door of opportunity.

307
00:15:25,220 --> 00:15:28,460
Every single time, you've always got war at the gate.

308
00:15:28,460 --> 00:15:30,940
The enemy doesn't want the leader to enter in.

309
00:15:30,940 --> 00:15:33,820
The enemy doesn't want the ministry leader to proceed.

310
00:15:33,820 --> 00:15:37,220
So the enemy will try to sift them as wheat

311
00:15:37,220 --> 00:15:40,780
to get them off course, to apply pressure,

312
00:15:40,780 --> 00:15:44,100
to get them distracted at the noise of the enemy

313
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:46,900
and he's going to try to trip them up

314
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:49,940
and most of my friends who are in ministry

315
00:15:49,940 --> 00:15:51,300
because we're all older,

316
00:15:51,300 --> 00:15:52,980
we kind of are not,

317
00:15:52,980 --> 00:15:56,620
we are definitely not ignorant of Satan's devices

318
00:15:56,620 --> 00:15:58,700
because we've been around so long.

319
00:15:58,700 --> 00:16:01,140
Once you've done this over 40 years,

320
00:16:01,140 --> 00:16:03,860
you know that if you're getting a tremendous amount

321
00:16:03,860 --> 00:16:07,940
of warfare, a tremendous amount of opposition,

322
00:16:07,940 --> 00:16:12,940
that just means God is about to bring promotion.

323
00:16:13,020 --> 00:16:17,340
God is about to open a new door for us.

324
00:16:17,340 --> 00:16:18,540
It's not about us.

325
00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:20,860
For the ministry, for the word of God,

326
00:16:20,860 --> 00:16:23,180
God is about to do a new thing.

327
00:16:23,180 --> 00:16:28,180
God is about to bring that ministry leader into a new phase

328
00:16:28,180 --> 00:16:31,580
and we need our ministry leaders to be strong,

329
00:16:31,580 --> 00:16:32,780
just like Joshua,

330
00:16:32,780 --> 00:16:36,180
we need our ministry leaders to be courageous.

331
00:16:36,180 --> 00:16:39,620
We need our ministry leaders to walk in the light

332
00:16:39,620 --> 00:16:40,900
as he is in the light.

333
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:44,260
We need our ministry leaders not to be tired.

334
00:16:44,260 --> 00:16:46,100
We need our ministry leaders

335
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:49,940
to operate in the spirit of wisdom and revelation.

336
00:16:49,940 --> 00:16:53,180
We need our ministry leaders to be protected

337
00:16:53,180 --> 00:16:56,500
and praying for the ministry leader

338
00:16:56,500 --> 00:17:04,820
is such as like the ministry of Aaron and her. The Bible says that Aaron and her,

339
00:17:04,820 --> 00:17:11,620
we're simplifying in here today, held up the arms of Moses and as long as they

340
00:17:11,620 --> 00:17:17,500
held up the arms of Moses, the power God kept flowing, victory kept flowing, and

341
00:17:17,500 --> 00:17:23,020
defeat to the enemy kept coming. So we need to stand in the gap. I just want to

342
00:17:23,020 --> 00:17:27,060
remind those of you that are listening, you need to really pray for your ministry

343
00:17:27,060 --> 00:17:33,100
leader. The only time the Apostle Paul said to pray for me, it was not that he

344
00:17:33,100 --> 00:17:39,820
got a new house or a new car or you know, it was always he said pray for me. Why?

345
00:17:39,820 --> 00:17:48,700
That the word of the Lord may have free course and what else? That I would be

346
00:17:48,700 --> 00:17:55,780
delivered from unreasonable and wicked men. He always asked for prayer. There's

347
00:17:55,780 --> 00:18:01,100
another scripture that says a great door in effectual, Paul said, has been open to

348
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:08,860
me, but he didn't stop there. He said and there are many adversaries. So see what I

349
00:18:08,860 --> 00:18:14,540
mean? So the door is open, but there's adversaries. There's war at the

350
00:18:14,540 --> 00:18:20,300
gate. So those of us who are praying people, we can abort the plans of the

351
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:24,900
enemy through our prayers so that our ministry leader doesn't get tired. I had

352
00:18:24,900 --> 00:18:30,300
it happen to me recently a couple months ago. I was so tired, just discouraged. I

353
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:36,100
had to be on antibiotics for some crazy thing and I gave a message to one of my

354
00:18:36,100 --> 00:18:44,300
Zoom family meetings and they all stopped and they all got on it and

355
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:47,540
I don't even know how they knew. I guess I sounded different or no they were

356
00:18:47,540 --> 00:18:52,460
picked it up in the spirit. We need to be sensitive to one another. The Bible

357
00:18:52,460 --> 00:18:57,540
says love one another as I have loved you greater love is no man than this and

358
00:18:57,540 --> 00:19:01,500
he lays down his life. We need to be sensitive to one another. They picked up

359
00:19:01,500 --> 00:19:06,020
on it and I can't tell you how many of them prayed for me, prophesied to me. They

360
00:19:06,020 --> 00:19:11,020
did all kinds of things. It really encouraged me and it canceled the plan

361
00:19:11,020 --> 00:19:17,300
and aborted the plan of the enemy. Why did it happen to you Margie? Well I don't

362
00:19:17,300 --> 00:19:20,300
know. I think I've been called to mobilize people in prayer and we're

363
00:19:20,300 --> 00:19:25,020
getting ready to launch some things next this year. So it's the enemy sees things

364
00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:29,860
that we don't see. I don't understand everything about the realm of the spirit

365
00:19:29,860 --> 00:19:35,980
but I do know this. Anytime a ministry leader is about to enter in just

366
00:19:35,980 --> 00:19:40,880
something new and those of us have been doing this a long time, you just get

367
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,980
all kinds of crazy warfare. I've had it happen. I had a meeting here in Fort

368
00:19:45,980 --> 00:19:52,100
Myers and I got to tell you when I got to this house I can't tell you. I almost

369
00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:55,940
broke my foot. My cheeks swelled up because I had some crazy thing with that

370
00:19:55,940 --> 00:20:02,260
and then the warfare was the mental warfare. It was like thoughts. It was

371
00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:07,260
warfare and it was just like and I did my worship. I prayed in tongues. I

372
00:20:07,260 --> 00:20:13,500
worship. I did everything but I had to stand. The Bible says having done all to

373
00:20:13,500 --> 00:20:18,580
stand stand there for and I knew in my heart I said I've been here before. This

374
00:20:18,580 --> 00:20:24,540
is not unusual territory. That church that I'm going to is entering into a new

375
00:20:24,540 --> 00:20:29,740
phase and I'm called to help usher them in and I have a word for them and I knew

376
00:20:29,740 --> 00:20:34,500
that once I did that meeting and I even said it's a once I did that meeting all

377
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:39,780
the warfare would stop right and guess what it did but that can be aborted so

378
00:20:39,780 --> 00:20:43,300
what did you do? I called to a friend of mine I said you guys got to pray for me

379
00:20:43,300 --> 00:20:49,620
because I got a meeting coming up and it's just incredible the amount of

380
00:20:49,620 --> 00:20:55,700
spiritual warfare they prayed for me and it helped get me through that okay so we

381
00:20:55,700 --> 00:20:59,860
need to stand we need to believe God with one another we need to pray for our

382
00:20:59,860 --> 00:21:05,980
ministry leaders and that's just exactly what we're going to do so I'm mute for

383
00:21:05,980 --> 00:21:12,220
prayer so I'm going to go ahead and unmute everyone and what we're going to

384
00:21:12,220 --> 00:21:20,540
do is we're going to pray I'm going to lead in prayer can everybody hear me you

385
00:21:20,540 --> 00:21:28,620
guys unmuted? We can hear you I unmuted myself. Okay good you all right so you I

386
00:21:28,620 --> 00:21:31,860
guys are all so what we're going to do we're going to first of all pray for the

387
00:21:31,860 --> 00:21:37,460
president the Senate House of Reps we're going to be led by the Holy Ghost and

388
00:21:37,460 --> 00:21:40,660
then we're going to pray for our ministry leaders away it sounds like a

389
00:21:40,660 --> 00:21:46,660
lot to pray about but the beauty of praying in tongues is when a person

390
00:21:46,660 --> 00:21:52,260
prays in the Holy Ghost you bypass the language of the earth and you're

391
00:21:52,260 --> 00:21:58,260
entering into the realm of heaven and praying in tongues is praying the will of

392
00:21:58,260 --> 00:22:04,460
God and I personally have seen this it accelerates our prayer to another level

393
00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:09,780
praying the word praying in the spirit it just takes us to another level so we

394
00:22:09,780 --> 00:22:15,380
can get a lot accomplished in the next 35 minutes as we pray all right are you

395
00:22:15,380 --> 00:22:22,780
you all ready to pray okay so father we just come before you we thank you we
