Day 13 - begins at Sundown Saturday August 17th

DECLARATION is a necessary element of intercession. We stand in the gap before the Lord on behalf of fallen mankind in order to bring God’s purposes into the lives of people and situations. 

As we enter into God’s presence, which is absolutely essential while going into the place of prayer, we begin to see the realities of the Lord’s perspectives. It is absolutely right to release these declarations into this realm with Kingdom authority.

When Moses was leading Israel God was speaking to him about going into the land. Moses basically says to the Lord if you don’t go with us we won’t go but if you will go with us we will go into the land. Then Moses asks to be shown God’s glory. You know the story. The Lord says no one can see His face and live but that the Lord will put Moses in the cleft of the rock and pass by so then Moses could see God’s backside as He walked away.

And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming,
“The Lord, the Lord, 
  • the compassionate and gracious God, 
  • slow to anger abounding in love and faithfulness,
  • maintaining love to thousands, and 
  • forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin.” 

Exodus 34.6, 7

It goes on to say that God does punish the guilty to the third and fourth generation. We do not make light of sin and its consequences but it is through the lens of the blood of Jesus that we are making declaration here speaking God’s freedom and release.

It is interesting to note that this is the Lord’s declaration of His own essence and being. Of all the things God is, He chose these characteristics to describe who He is to Moses, the man highly favored at this time.

Listen to the words again:
  • compassionate, 
  • gracious, 
  • slow to anger, 
  • abounding in love, 
  • (abounding in) faithfulness, 
  • maintaining love and 
  • forgiving. 
It is with trembling that we should make these declarations over our families, our churches, our cities, our regions, realizing just who we are and who God is.

This is declaring the very nature of the Lord to the people who we are trying to reach with the gospel. Maybe we’ll see more compassion, love, mercy and forgiveness being manifested in our own lives as well as those around us as we begin to make kingdom declarations in prayer.

This is only one of many thousands of kingdom declarations from the Word of God. Dig in and find the precious treasures that God has hidden just for you, and those ready to be revealed in these days.

Blessings

  2, 22, 222, 2222 - Keys to the House of David This Facebook post from Johnny Enlow was sent to me by a friend two years ago and I ran across it again today.  So in good fun, I repost it here.  OK, so the 2's have it. So many of you have apparently been seeing a lot of 222 and 2222 as well and are wondering as to what the Lord might be saying there. Three scriptures that I get for this are: Eph. 2:22,  Rev. 22:2 and  Acts 2:22.  Eph. 2:22 is about us being built into a dwelling place for God.  Rev. 22:2 is about being trees of life that bring healing to the nations.  Acts 2:22 is about being a person of signs, wonders, and miracles.  All three go together and as you see the 222 you are being reminded that you are one that is to carry the power and presence of God everywhere you go.  Life of the supernatural is yours to step into as you host Him. Seeing 2222 at key times is about Isaiah. 22:22. This is the passage about being given the key of David to open and no m

This post is about my reoccurring connection to the Minnesota Miracle and how God has kept the dream alive for a revival in Minnesota that He wants to bring to birth.  October 1971 - Minnesota Miracle Seventeen years old and on my way to a weekend retreat at Camp Courage. There I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit on Friday night with many other young people. The rest of that weekend was supernatural, none of us (over 100 high school and college students) showed up at the dining hall to eat, many of us did not sleep, we sought the Lord continuously for three days from Friday evening until Sunday at Noon . God was present in a tangible way as the Spirit hovered over our camp. We all left there changed by the power of the Holy Spirit.  The speaker that weekend was Dick Eastman he went onto North Central Bible college in downtown Mpls. Monday to lead their morning chapel service, that chapel service lasted for three days! Monday 8 AM - Wednesday 7 PM. The Bible school was

A WRINKLE IN TIME... another JESUS PEOPLE movement?

First the Natural...  The Jesus People Church in Minneapolis begun in 1972, came out of the REVIVAL meetings held 7 days a week for several weeks at Souls Harbor, Downtown Minneapolis in the fall of 1971.  Coincidentally, the congregation at the renewed Jesus People Church now in Rogers, MN set aside Friday, May 2, 2014, for a Jesus People Church Reunion.  They invited all those who were part of the Jesus People Church in Minneapolis during the 70s and 80s; as part of that congregation in the past, my wife and I received a personal invitation to attend. But we did not go the gala event at a ritzy hotel in Minneapolis. Then the Spiritual!  The same weekend, I also received a personal invitation for Saturday, 5/3/14 to hear Cindy Jacobs at the House Church at 2024 Rahn Road in Eagan, MN. She prophesied that night "another Jesus People Movement" to come. As I sat in that "physical place where I had been one of the Jesus People church elders 25 years earlier,
