Facts:
The state of our nation
- Our nation is at an unprecedented spiritual and formative gate. We have not been this way before with a former president being indicted primarily through an opposing political party and president. This gate presents a way forward either towards God’s purposes and destiny, or towards man’s plans and destruction. We are at a tipping point.
- There is no judicial or political system that can settle the issues. As such there is a significant battle for which we must recognize and contend.
- Our prayers and declarations are vital for the direction of our nation at this time.
Our position with the Lord:
- Humility is key: God will not despise a humble and contrite heart. Isaiah 57:15-18; 2 Chron 7:13-14
- Give thanks: Being thankful opens the door to conversation with God. It moves us beyond whatever concerns us into conversation with a Father who cares, and opens our ears to hear what He would say to us. Ps 100:4; 118:19
- Acknowledge God in His sovereignty: Focusing on the multi-dimensional nature of God revealed in His names will move us beyond our concerns and opinions into revelation of His will.
- Declare the names of God
- When humility and acknowledgement of the sovereignty of God meet, the fear of the Lord will prevail. In it is wisdom and understanding.
- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Ps 111:10; Pro 9:10, 15:33; Is 33:6, Job 28:28
- The fear of the Lord yields knowledge and confidence Pro 1:7, 2:5, 14:26, Job 4:6, Is 33:6
- The fear of the Lord leads to life. Pro 10:27, 14:27, 19:23, Ps 128:1,4

- God will align America with Israel and pray for its peace

While the recent Abraham Accords are a first step towards relational equity between Israel and Arab nations, the Accords also promote the division of Israel’s land and are in violation of God’s covenant with Israel. The division of the land promoted by the Accords is not protected and likely to fall apart when Israel is attacked.
