A very real, unseen world surrounds us. The God-directed angelic realm right now is battling in the heavenlies against the demonic influences, principalities, and wicked spiritual forces over nations, peoples, situations. From chariots of fire (2 Kings 6:16-17) to the warrior-protector archangel Michael over Israel (Daniel 10:13-21 and Revelation 12:7-12).

 

Those heavenly battles impact ours. Which means while on this tangible earth, you and I are fighting the unseen with swords of prayer, intercession, and praise. And The Sword, the Word of God.

 

Our prayers and intercession are activated in heaven . . . presented as fragrant bowls of incense before the King of Glory.

 

When He had taken the scroll,

the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders

fell down before the Lamb,

each one holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense,

which are the prayers of the saints [believers in Jesus/Yeshua].

Revelation 5:8

 

Our Joint Mission to Pray and Stand Strong

based on Colossians 4:2 and Ephesians 6:18 and Acts 2:42

 

(a) Throughout your day, stay connected to God, the Holy One, our Lord and Savior

(b) Humbly seek His face in all that you do

(c) Clothe yourself in the Word regularly, soak it up so it’s flooding your soul and available for ready access

(d) Pray using the Word

(e) Submit to the Holy Spirit in prayer and in your life

(f) Persevere in fervent, persistent prayer especially in the face of obstacles

(g) Keep watch—and stay spiritually aware, alert, vigilant

PRAYER ALERTS

 

ALERT #1. PERSECUTED CHURCH & ALAWITES

Isaiah 46:9-10

For I AM GOD, and there’s none like me, declaring the end from the beginning . . . My counsel shall stand, and I WILL accomplish all my purpose.

Request: The level of evil unleashed on the body of Christian believers (adults/children) worldwide is escalating beyond the pale and more so now as they’re being slaughtered/crucified or worse along with the Alawites (an Arab group) by al-Julani’s terror group in Syria. Demonic principalities—spirits of death and destruction—are raging over regions and peoples, performing unspeakable violent acts.

Prayer: Tear down the spiritual strongholds. Most holy King, there truly is none like you—righteous, merciful, mighty, Redeemer, Deliverer, Savior, champion, hero, everlasting love, steadfast, lovingkindness, the Great I Am. No matter how the nations, peoples, demonic realm rages, your will and purposes will be done. Your promises fulfilled. Carry and strengthen those called by your name, those facing horrific death or abuse yet faithfully professing Jesus. Bring the sweetness of fellowship and deeper teaching of the Word to those believers who walk the Gospel alone. And may your mercies embrace the Alawites; for those left alive, bring forth the understanding they need to believe and receive Jesus as Messiah so they may walk in your truth, life, way. In Yeshua’s Great Name.

 

ALERT #2. ZION (ISRAEL/JERUSALEM)

Isaiah 43:1

But now, this is what the Lord says, He who is your Creator, Jacob, And He who formed you, Israel:
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!” (NASB)

Request: The battles on seven harsh fronts continue. Israel—its leaders, its people—need God’s profound presence and covering.

Prayer: God’s promises fulfilled. Adonai, your enemies are surrounding and thwarting your Servant Israel. You have called them by name—they are yours. Woo them to your arms during these trials, speak life and cover them with your mercies. Strengthen their military offense and defense strategies, but through it all, may you get the glory. May Israel share with the world their words of testimony about your greatness, faithfulness, wonder, and Salvation in Yeshua. In Yeshua’s holy name.

Prayer: Mercy, healing, freedom in Messiah. Adonai, Jehovah-Nissi, the Lord our Banner, please stretch yourself over Matt, be his banner, his guiding light, salvation, healer, protector. There is none like you, Lord, you are El Olam, the Everlasting Father. Only you can help Matt. Please move heaven to action on his behalf . . . keep him from further incarceration.

Psalm 34:18

The Lord is near the brokenhearted;
He saves those crushed in spirit.

Request: Kristine was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and needs God’s strength and presence.

Prayer: Encourage and strengthen her soul. Glorious King, Immanuel, God with us, please walk with Kristine through this valley. Let her sense your Holy Spirit falling on her so Psalm 34:18 becomes real to her. That you’re right there beside her, feeling her crushed spirit but breathing encouragement and strength over her. Help her know and hear your voice of comfort and direction. Quiet the fears as you pull her closer to you. May the truth of our Messiah Jesus heal her soul as you sustain and restore her body. In Jesus’s sweet, powerful name.

 

#5. CHARLENE

Psalm 6:2

Be gracious to me, Lord, for I am weak; heal me, Lord, for my bones are shaking.

Request: Charlene—breast cancer patient—was on our prior prayer lists. After a rough time with chemo therapy, mumps, and a bad infection, Charlene’s ultrasound revealed that the tumor shrunk by over 50%! Please keep the prayers going as she continues her infusion treatments.

Prayer: Help me, Lord. El Gibbor, Mighty God, thank you for your intervention, for carrying Charlene through this rough patch. You know how these fearful times cause our bones to quiver. We need to feel your arms around her. Never let her go, my King. Love on Charlene through this storm and part the waters so she can dance before you in joy. In Jesus’s holy name.

 

#6. Toni C.

Isaiah 12:2b

I will trust in Him and not fear, for the Lord gives me strength and protects me.

Request: Toni needs God’s strength as she battles COPD, diabetes, other health issues. Two times in a little over a week she has had to have the EMTs at her house. It is getting difficult for her to be alone.

Prayer: God’s covering. El Chaiyai, God of my Life, encircle your daughter Toni with your protection and send angels to minister to her in the difficult times—and please strengthen her lungs, stabilize her blood sugar, and bring to mind your Word that she’s hidden in her heart over the years serving you. May you bless her in all ways with abundant grace for your glory as you gently lead her on this next part of her journey in and with you, casting out fear and helping faith arise within her. In Yeshua’s powerful, grace-filled name.

Psalm 107:19-20

Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. He sent his Word and healed them and delivered them from destruction.

Request: Jewish mother and daughter, both needing prayer support. Arly for serious health issues—significantly low hemoglobin 6.1 (anemia) and a painful kidney stone plus suffering with RA (rheumatoid arthritis). And her soon-to-turn-18 Kayla needs prayer for painful gastro/stomach issues and wisdom for upcoming educational decisions.

Prayer: A touch from heaven. Faithful God, Ha’El hanne’eman ( הָאֵל֙ הַנֶּֽאֱמָ֔ן), you have shown your steadfast love and unparalleled faithfulness to Israel from the beginning. Please watch over your daughters Arly and Kayla, drawing them deeper into your love, healing, grace, comfort, wisdom. May your eyes and heart turn toward them to demonstrate your chesed (lovingkindness) giving them the answers they need medically. Usher healing under your wings as you help them find rest and hide them in the shelter of your sacred tent and set them high upon the Rock. (Psalm 27:5).

Request: Rabbi Deitsch is head of the Chabad of the East Valley in Arizona and has delivered prayers before the US Senate and House of Representatives. He needs to know his Messiah Yeshua.

Prayer: God’s love story. Mighty Go’el, Redeemer, step into Rabbi Mendy’s life. You see his commitment to your Law and Torah, but much like the Pharisee Saul Paulus, he needs a Damascene experience to meet the Messiah Yeshua, to learn the fullness of your Glorious Redemptive Plan, given to the Jew first, then the Gentiles. Gracious Father, pull back the veil for him, his family, his congregation so they may know the eternal joy of our Savior. In Yeshua’s majestic, kingly name.

Psalm 18:32-33

It’s God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless. He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. (ESV)

Prayer: Held tight in God’s hands. Gracious King, Sustainer of Life, we continue to ask for the healing power of the cross to be released within Tony. We seek your face and divine intervention. Please cover Tony with your protection, your strength, your endless love. Carry him through these uncertain patches, guiding and comforting him and his family in your rest . . . and please give wisdom and understanding and the right treatment plans to the doctors. In Jesus’s name above ALL names.

 

#10. MAUREEN

Exodus 33:14

My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.

Request: Maureen has severe bronchitis after previously battling a virus. She needs God’s rest, healing grace, and His voice rising within her.

Prayer: God’s mercy and deliverance. El Shaddai, the all-sufficient, nourishing God, please let your heavenly waterfall of healing and provisions rain down on Maureen.

Where there is darkness in his soul, speak Light. Where there is doubt and hopelessness, breathe unwavering Faith and Encouragement. Please speak words that comfort, free, heal him and set him high on the Rock of his salvation, surrounded by your sweet fragrance from heaven. In Yeshua’s glorious name.

 

#12. ASHLEY

Psalm 40:1

I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry.

Prayer: Shielded. God of the impossible, thank you. May your gracious, splendid, powerful hand shelter Ashley and the child in her womb to full term and a safe, joyous delivery. May your Name be glorified, and may the child be anointed to serve you righteously. In Yeshua’s precious name.

Here we stand, Lord, ready before you on behalf of others..

 

Mighty King, please strengthen us, teach us in prayer, refine us amid the storm—and usher in swift intervention to bring down the raging Goliaths in our lives.

 

I was asleep but my heart was awake. A sound! My beloved is knocking!—Song of Songs 5:2a

 

I waited expectantly, patiently for the Lord until He reached down to me and heard my cry. —Psalm 40:1

 

Mid-June 2024

 

2 SPECIAL PRAISE REPORTS

20 VITAL PRAYER REQUESTS

 

#1. Matt’s PRAISE REPORT!

2 Samuel 22:2

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer . . .

He’s been on our prayer list before. Matt is bipolar with emotional issues and landed in a Salt Lake City jail last year—and recently was facing even more time, totaling 5 to 8 years, he said. It was confusing and crushing news on many levels. Then on June 13, our prayers (and tears) for God’s mercy were answered! Out of the blue he was told he was getting released that day! I have to say, I sat stunned by God’s unfathomable mercy and love.

Merciful Father, your lovingkindness is too wonderful for us to comprehend. Please keep Matt in your hand, you know his needs—especially his walking with you again, safe housing to stop homelessness, staying on his meds, restarting his disability funds.

 

#2. Chris’s PRAISE REPORT!

Psalm 34:17

When the righteous cry for help, the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles.

In January, Chris, a 53-year-old, longtime homeless man in Ohio, was on our prayer list for stability, God’s mercies, blessings, and healing (body, mind, soul). He was doing odd jobs—even construction work from my Uncle Gene/Aunt Marian who are in their 80s and building a new home. In fact, whenever possible, they purposely are using needy workers like Chris versus hiring a construction company, so their housebuilding is about helping others along the way to have work and dignity.

 

Yowza! God moved on this prayer and through my aunt/uncle’s holy work. Chris and his girlfriend now have an apartment! And Chris is sharing his blessings by helping and encouraging other down-and-out people, some of who are now also working on my aunt/uncle’s house project. Blessings begetting blessings begetting blessings, showering on others.

 

Gracious Father, thank you, thank you, thank you! Please let your mercies and provisions and favor be on Chris and those he has blessed so they may all know you and honor our Lord and Savior, our Messiah Jesus.

 

#3. Gene

Isaiah 65:24

Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear.

My Uncle Gene—mentioned in the prior praise report about Chris—hasn’t been well for nearly six months. Doctors haven’t found the cause—yet he continues with the housebuilding and blessing others.

Precious King, stretch out your arms and lift up Gene and Marian strengthening them, guiding them on their building project . . . and cover them with the revelation, mercies, and healing needed for every medical issue.

 

#4. Israel’s Prime Minister, Bibi Netanyahu

1 Samuel 17:45

Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

The weight on Netanyahu is crushing—if it weren’t for God.

 

Holy God of Israel, help Netanyahu stand in faith on your majestic name, faithful character, scriptural promises, and lean on you for strength and direction. May Isaiah 43:1 come alive in his soul and throughout all of Israel’s military. May they stand on that truth, no matter what other nations say or do. Lord, you are, as promised, going ahead of Israel and you are and always will be their rearguard (Isaiah 52:12).

 

Please help Netanyahu and the IDF be lifted in courage, alive in hope, filled with a song in their soul based on your Word so they can run with the horses (Jeremiah 12:5)—able to excel on every war front. And may the truth of their Messiah Jesus reign in their hearts, minds, souls.

 

#5. Michael and parents

Psalm 6:2

Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing; heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled

The battle is intense within Michael. Anger, depression, illness. He’s in a dark place that’s piercing his parents’ heart. They seek God’s deliverance, intervention, and supernatural wisdom of how to proceed.

Warrior King, please arm your servants Diana and her husband with the power and promise of Ephesian 6:10-18. Pierce through the darkness taunting Michael and bring down and cast out the Goliaths in his life so he is freed, victorious, seated in your hand, and surrounded by your holiness, comfort, wholeness, and truth.

 

#6. Bernie

Psalm 41:3

The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.

Bernie has had a full plate for years, faithfully rising to her family’s special needs. Now she is in need, seeking God’s timing and covering for her hip replacement surgery, his excellence and presence over the medical team, her pre-op, operation, and recovery.

Behold your daughter, Adonai, and carry her through this, wrap her in your holy tallit of healing and let her sense your presence and hear your voice in joyful ways like never before. May your Word rise within her soul, refreshing her and lifting her to a sweet, deeper love in you.

 

#7. Mary T’s Dad

Psalm 146:8a

The Lord opens the eyes of the blind . . .

Mary’s dad has a tumor in his lungs and may not have much time left.

Majestic King, you see how Mary’s dad needs you for his health, to calm fears, to bring comfort from the pain–but especially how his soul needs salvation. We know it is not your will that even one parishes. Please remove any hardness and spiritual blindness from his soul. Help him see, believe, and surrender to your glorious redemptive plan and eternal promises of salvation through Jesus, our Redeemer-Messiah.

 

#8. Kevin’s Aunt Barbara

Romans 15:13

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

Barbara was in ICU for an attempted suicide. Raised Catholic, she’s a nurse but since her husband died a few years ago, she’s been depressed and on medication. The enemy has her in a grip of mourning, her hope and joy deferred.

Father, carry Barbara in your arms. Oh how she needs you and the freedom and peace you’ve given us in Jesus. Speak words of healing and hope to her soul and may your truth and presence restore her joy and set her free from satan’s hold and lies.

 

#9. Jamie

Psalm 138:3

On the day I called, you answered me and made me bold with strength in my soul.

You’ve been praying for Jamie and we thank you. But now the cancer treatments for his stage 4 lung/liver cancer aren’t working well and caused his recent hospital stay. He has treatment decisions to make.

Merciful Father, may your grace, favor, calm, comfort, and immense love be evidenced, palpable, and boldly believed in the crevices of Jamie’s soul. And may he rise like an eagle and find continued strength in your embrace as he seeks your will in his decision-making.

 

#10. Gabriel

Isaiah 30:21

And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.

After our breakfast outing, my friend Sonia and I were blessed to give the Gospel to Gabriel by an unexpected move of the Lord. Gabriel is a young man from Mexico living in Vegas but has no family in town. He listened to the Gospel, took a tract with a Christian bookmark and Sonia’s most-precious gift, a Bible.

Mighty Redeemer, please soften Gabriel’s soul, protect your Word soijen and given to him, and bless him with a deep understanding of the beauty of your redemption story so he can embrace the salvation and joy in our Messiah Jesus.

 

#11. Brian

Psalm 107:6

Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble and he delivered them from their distress.

Another young man my friend Sonia and I met on our unexpected God-ordained ministry day. Brian is homeless and wants to find his mother and get to his brother Matthew who is not well in another state. He prayed with us and seeks God’s help with provisions and in working out all these family and housing issues.

May God arise in Brian’s life in new, surprising, wondrous ways and release provisions and relational healings for his good and God’s glory.

 

#12. James

Psalm 32:8

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.

Thirty-year-old James is asking God for wisdom, direction on his life, positive changes, and deliverance for those situations binding him.

Lord Most High, you see the struggles, you hear James’s cries. Reach down and point the way and clearly set the answers before him. Teach him, mature his walk of faith in you throughout the journey so you are glorified and his joy in you is complete.

 

#13. Toni

Psalm 73:26.

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

A senior citizen, Toni has had some increasing health challenges and is finally getting help but she’s fallen a few times in her apartment and is on oxygen 24/7. She’s a longtime Christian leaning on her King to carry her through.

Abba, please sit with your daughter, send angels to minister to her, be the breath within her lungs and her soul and encourage her in your love. May the sweet fragrance of your presence and heaven fill her home and heart.

 

#14. Leslie & children

Psalm 34:4-5a

I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant.

A strong believer going through a challenging divorce and discovering God’s love at every turn. She’s seeking improved health, wisdom on decisions regarding her ministry work, salvation for her teen/autistic son, and protection over health/personal concerns for her young daughter.

Mighty King, please surround Leslie and her family with your goodness and endless mercies. Shine your radiant light of truth and love over them. Make your will clearly known and understood, your healing on her body complete. And please release new resources to meet every need. King of the fight, soften her son’s heart to hear your truth and your voice and not the enemy’s lies. And please keep her daughter sheltered in your arms, stilling her fears.

 

#15. Michelle & Jason

Proverbs 4:20-22

My son, be attentive to my words . . . keep them within your heart . . . they are life and healing to you.

They both need God’s grace, strength, mercies, and healing because of health issues: Michelle’s ongoing allergy problems (with breathing problems and extremely limited food to eat). And Jason’s weakened ankles and his need for a calmed mind, resting in God’s arms.

Father, thank you for drawing Jason and Michelle to your heart. Please shelter them, strengthen them, gird them in your love and Word, breathe your healing through them, and keep them safe under your glory wings.

 

#16. Anonymous

Psalm 25:6

Remember your mercy, O Lord, and your steadfast love, for they have been from of old.

This gracious senior citizen—a mighty woman of God—is seeking her Lord’s hand on her health issues so she can serve him more and others: arthritic shoulders, kidneys, and pre-diabetes.

Lord, envelope your daughter, restore her, revive her, bathe her in your heavenly wisdom and understanding. May your presence in her home be her constant companion.

 

#17. Jeff

2 John 3:2

Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.

Jeff is in his early 40s with major thyroid issues—he’s had to use a feeding tube for several months and needs God’s strength and encouragement.

Lord, see your servant and strengthen him, encourage him, cover him, lovingly lifting him under your wings for assurance, hope, and healing.

 

#18. Avery

Isaiah 40:29.

He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.

Avery has had quite a journey. Her past exposure to mold eventually caused auto-immune issues and diminished health, forcing her and her husband Ryan to move from the Midwest to warmer, drier Las Vegas. She still has a ways to go.

Lord God, please intervene and release your mantle of healing. And bring Avery and Ryan the beauty and freedom and truth of the Messiah Jesus, our Redeemer and healer.

 

#19. Nina

Psalm 31:1

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame, in your righteousness deliver me.

Some of us got an SOS prayer request when Nina went to court recently about her divorce. Her ex is shirking his fiscal responsibilities per the agreement. Nina was advised to get a lawyer going forward.

Merciful King, our judge, our advocate, may your hand be on this, may your holy, righteous, and just ways be manifested in the court for your daughter Nina.

 

#20. Molly (doggie)

Psalm 145:6

You open your hand; you satisfy the desire of every living thing.

Little Mollie has had a problem with a heart valve—but God has kept his hand on her, despite vets saying back when that she had six months to live. She’s being doing fine for a long time but now has bad teeth that need removing; however the vet won’t do the procedure since she can’t go under anesthesia with her heart condition. Her human family needs comfort and wisdom.

Lord, you look on the great and the small and are sovereign over all the earth. May your mercies cover Molly and this family. And may your love prevail over Mollie according to your will and over this family.
