Pray to Overcome Growing Totalitarianism

Discerning The Times, High-level Intercession

Dear Intercessors:

Blessings on everyone. Thanks so much for your prayers and for your participation in the engagements about which I have been writing to you.

Alfred Lord Tennyson, in his poem, “Morte D’Arthur,” has the dying King Arthur speak these famous lines:

“If thou shouldst never see my face again,

Pray for my soul. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.” …

“If, knowing God, they lift not hands of prayer

Both for themselves and those who call them friend?

For so the whole round earth is every way

Bound by gold chains about the feet of God.”

I have always been greatly moved by these lines spoken by King Arthur.

As we have been in these prayer battles together, I am seeing more and more the power and the role of prayer in bringing God’s work and presence into the world.

That is how I interpret the stanza about the earth being “bound by gold chains about the feet of God.” I am seeing this poetic image become reality through our engagements.

The changes wrought by heaven through our prayer also let us know the strategic role of intercession. Through our petitions the Holy Spirit advances the Kingdom of God in the earth.

Giving Thanks For Defeating Antifa And Other News

Discerning The Times

Dear Intercessors: Right now, Martin and I and the PRMI team are in arrived in Israel to begin our Jerusalem Prayer Endeavor.

This Discerning The Times is unlike most – short! Just a word of giving praise and thanksgiving. God seems to have answered our prayer to bind the spirit of lawlessness that could have broken out with the planned Antifa protest during the weekend.

Many us had the urgent calling to step into the gap and to bind the demons. Apparently the Holy Spirit orchestrated an entire prayer movement in opposition to the Radical Left/Marxist strongholds that pose a real and present danger not just to America, but to the Kingdom of God.

I reported this in the Discerning the Times on November 3, 2017.

Praise God nothing substantial took place and the result was that the Antifa protest events fizzled and were so sparsely attended that basically nothing happened. There are many reports of this non-event. Here is one:

After Action Review – Intercession Concerning North Korea

Discerning The Times, High-level Intercession

(While this is lengthy, I think it provides some important insights into the dynamics of intercession.)

I sent out the following call to prayer concerning North Korea:

Thanks for the many responses that I received on this alert. There were many excellent comments.

I think we need to do an After Action Review to sharpen our discernment and assess what God may have been doing. I start with what happened to me as I was called into the gap, followed by some of what we may learn from this. After that, for those of you who want the details, I provide the documentation and the responses from the other intercessors. I have included an excellent letter from Ben Torrey, who lives in South Korea, who was called into an entirely different direction of intercession.

Urgent Call to Prayer to Constrain the Evil that May Break Out From North Korea by April 15, 2017

Discerning The Times, High-level Intercession, Prayer

Dear Intercessors,

I believe the Holy Spirit is calling many intercessors into the gap before April 15 to prevent some terrible outbreak of evil from North Korea.

U.S. warships are headed toward the North Korean coast as the Asian nation prepares to celebrate the 105th birthday of its founder, Kim Il-sung, on Saturday, April 15.

The celebration may put North? Korea on a military collision course with the United States.? The New York Times reports that North? Korean leader Kim Jong Un will mark the day by either firing a ballistic missile or testing a nuclear device.
