Today's Israel Inspiration

Today’s section comes from Naftali Herz Imber’s 1878 poem “Hatikva” which later became Israel’s national anthem. Meaning, ‘The Hope’ in Hebrew, Hatikva expresses the Jewish desire to “live in freedom.” However the Biblical notion of freedom is quite different from how others define it. In the modern world, people fight for freedom from some undesirable entity while the Torah stresses that true freedom is the freedom to follow one’s own intellectual and spiritual pursuits. In fact, the loftiest goal in the Bible is for a person to relinquish their freedom and be a ‘servant’ of the Almighty. Support the Defenders of Freedom in the Holy Land this Independence Day!
 

The Messianic Prayers of Israeli Independence Day

Coming from a most inspiring Israeli Independence Day Prayer Service at my local synagogue in Ramat Bet Shemesh, Israel, I realized just how “messianic” our prayers are. To many Jews, “Messianic” has become almost a dirty name here in Israel, since it has come to refer to the group of Christian missionaries who subvertly try to convert Jews to Christianity.

The IDF Has Your Back!

2015 - The Tipping Point (Prophetic Insights for Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania, China, the UK, Ireland, France, Germany and Canada) - by Mary Lindow

2015 - The Tipping Point 

by Mary Lindow

Identity Network

 
 
Dear Lover of God's People,

 
For several months the Lord has been sharing with me either in night visions (dreams) or in prophetic impressions and scripture regarding Africa, Australia and China, The United Kingdom, Ireland, France, Germany and Canada.

 
I will share here in this message, only what the Lord impressed me with and will not attempt to interpret what the Lord has not shown to me. I only see in part and willingly submit these insights for others to pray over, inquire of the Lord over, and discern His heart in the matter.

 
In His Shadow,

 
Mary Lindow

 
Prophetic Insights Regarding Africa

 
Africa will be brought to the forefront of the media as continual savage and brutal guerrilla warriors and evil groups with blood lust in their hearts vie for political power and black market trade.

 
There are several tyrannical leaders who have continued to shake their fists at God who will be brought down in power due to health contradictions and loss of support. This will be a plot set forth by the hand of God.

 
"As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it." Job 4:8

 
The Father hears the tormented cries of the desperate hearts in intercession and will not withhold His hand of judgment and power.  An exposing of blackmail, illegal trade and embezzlements, will begin to have a snowball effect in the nation while simultaneously a wave of hunger for purity and forgiveness from God will be escalated.

 
"You evildoers frustrate the plans of the poor, but the LORD is their refuge." Psalm 14:6

 
Signs and wonders in the area of healing, creative miracles, and supernal provision of food and water will become a floodgate for revival and deliverance as the favor of God is abundantly poured out. This abundant favor is due to the intercession of the saints in Africa and others hidden as well, in other nations who pray for Africa.

 
A fresh focus on mercy and grace will overtake the dictatorial and hierarchical form of church government in Africa. The Lord specifically says that those who have been paralyzed and dwarfed in their freedom to preach the gospel of the Kingdom in Africa due to religious control and restraints will have a supernatural deliverance out of this bondage.

 
"From the LORD comes deliverance.  May your blessing be on your people." Psalm 3:8

 
Home gatherings and small intimate groups of hungry saints will begin to break out across the nation. Miracles will occur, worship will be a passionate feast and no longer time restricted. 

 
I see in the spirit, large open field areas with African saints gathering in large groups simply raising hands in unashamed worship and adoration without time restraints. It sounds like one voice in unison before the Throne of God and the Light of God surrounds them in purity and joy as they cry out in praise and intercession for their nation.

 
"All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, O Lord; they will bring glory to your name." Psalm 86:9

 
Children in many regions of Africa will begin to have visions of heaven and of Jesus.

 
They will prophesy boldly and preach with an anointed fervor. This will cause a great fear of the Lord in the hearts of those who practice dark magic and witchcraft, and evil spirits will be driven out of bodies and minds as the Word of God is proclaimed.

 
It will be as if a large fist has come down from Heaven and has smashed and scattered the plots of the wicked only to open up and gently hold those near to the heart of God through humility.

 
"Do you hear what these children are saying?" they asked him. "Yes," replied Jesus, "have you never read, 'From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise'?"Matthew 21:16

 
Prophetic Insights Regarding Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania

 
The Lord impressed me with a picture of large gatherings in denominational cathedrals filled with believers worshipping and praying. These people were of many colors and creeds, but were exhausted from religious exercises. They wanted unity.

 
A Ram's horn began to be shaped into a Shofar and someone was blowing it like an alarm over and over again!

 
The sound coming up from these people gathered in prayer becomes a roar of repentance and intercession. It grew louder and louder as believers were crying out to heaven for protection and wisdom.

 
The Lord would speak to Australia and says these words.

 
"Prayer is the only hedge of protection you actually have. You will tabernacle with me in the place of Prayer.

 
You must have a passion and flame inspired through unity in prayer as I increase your momentum in prayer for your nation and other nations."

 
"Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD." Psalm 27:6

 
"Repent for embracing false gods, eastern religious influences, and relaxed attitudes towards exploited pleasure and sexual freedoms.

 
Return to me Land of the Holy Spirit and I will cause the South winds to blow rain upon your crops, and Rain from Heaven's hands into your places of prayer."

 
Come back to simplicity and stalwart integrity.

 
Who has bewitched you into complacent action in purity of heart?

 
Cast off the garment of seduction and put on the garment of praise and begin to violently accost the powers of "spiritual hypnosis" through cleansing your hearts of hidden idols and pleasures. Replace them with grace, self-control, mercy, and loving kindness."

 
"They worshiped their idols, which became a snare to them." Psalm 106:36

 
He in turn will water the seed of heartfelt prayer, expressed in unity and others will be drawn to the amazing results of prayer.

 
Australia will also have a backlash of premeditated Islamic uprisings from hidden irritants now well entrenched in the nation.
 
 
Believers must now make a decision for either tolerance or truth. Complacency will be addressed by the Lord through young fiery men and women of God who do not fear even death for the sake of the Power of the Cross and Resurrected Savior.

 
A Clash of cultures will bring about a wave of salvation and powerful demonstrations of the Holy Spirit.

 
Tasmania and New Zealand

 
You will have what appears to be in a spiritual sense, "Wildfires lit by the Hand of God." Young people praying day and night along side elderly humble saints, who have prayed for years that God would revisit them in power, will experience heavenly refreshing and fresh worship music will be released in these sacrificial gatherings of prayer.

 
"Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." Acts 3:19

 
Australia! Let the Glory of the Lord Rise Among you!

 
Pray!

 
This is your heritage and richest export says the Spirit of God!

 
Prophetic Insights Regarding China

 
In a night vision I was shown an enormous rusty colored Dragon standing on its hind feet. The closer I was "zoomed in" to look at the dragon the bigger it appeared. The dragon had thousands of sharply pointed scales on it made of iron and the color of the dragon was derived from the color of rust on iron.

 
The dragon was extremely sophisticated and moved very sleekly and arrogantly as if it knew it was a huge, well-armored creature.

 
Standing at the base of the feet of the dragon a short distance away were men from leadership in different nations. They were all dressed in "Power" suits, (dark business suits, white shirts, subdued ties).

 
Each man was holding a large bow and arrow, and they were pulling tightly and were aimed at the dragon. On the shaft of each arrow the flag of the individual persons nation was hanging from it. I saw President Bush, a male German ruler, Switzerland, Brussels, France, and Britain all represented.

 
These powerful men with the bows and arrows were shooting the arrows at the Dragon only to have them pitifully bounce off of its iron armored scales.

 
Revelation 13:4 "Men worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, "Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?"

 
This amused the dragon!

 
It knew that it had risen in power and armament as well as knowledge and intelligence regarding it's relations with other "Power" countries, and was now laughing at the presumed attempt to control the Dragon.

 
After I woke from this dream I was also impressed by the Lord that there was going to be a big exposure of the abuse of slave-like labor practices in China. This will stir up the exposure of China's human rights abuses and startling and hideous practices of human experimentation and torture will be revealed.

 
The growth of the underground Chinese church will begin to sway the current lock down on Christians in worship.

 
There are going to be signs and wonders in the sky above China that will cause people to fall on their knees in either worship or terror as God begins to orchestrate a move of unsurpassed Redemption.

 
"Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness; Tremble before him, all the earth."Psalm 96:9

 
"God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will." Hebrews 2:4

 
The Lord has heard the cries of those martyred for His namesake and is coming with great power and exposure in China.

 
Governmental rulers who have stalked and tracked down preachers of the Gospel will be caught in the act of abuse and human trafficking.

 
"A man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support him." Proverbs 28:17

 
There will be a window of great opportunity in China for a season as the Lord draws the lost to His heart.  Pray for Divine Protection, strength, and boldness among the saints in China!!

 
"Then I was told, You are to make a fresh prophecy concerning many peoples and races and nations, And languages and kings." Revelation 10:11

 
The United Kingdom

 
There will be a ROAR of prayer heard from desperate hearts in the UK. Prayer will be a way of life in many small Hamlets and Villages, and many homes will become chapels of healing and miracles.

 
Central London will have an epic move of God as He sends in intercessors in tandem with relevant and fiery Revivalists who will have such a strong presence of God with the Power of Holy Spirit, bringing conviction that even the hardest atheist observing it all will be made to run away in terror at the potent power of God falling upon the people.

 
Joel 2:25 "And I will restore or replace for you the years that the locust has eaten - the hopping locust, the stripping locust, and the crawling locust, my great army, which I sent among you."

 
Houses of hope and care will spring up in smaller surrounding areas, where these whom have once been bound will be cared for and restored.

 
"Brethren, if any person is overtaken in misconduct or sin of any sort, you who are spiritual [who are responsive to and controlled by the Spirit] should set him right and restore and reinstate him, without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness, keeping an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted also." Galatians 6:1

 
Ireland

 
There are many hidden and faithful leaders who have weathered political and spiritual storms for decades who are now well prepared and ready for the Father's divine plan for their lives.

 
Ireland will begin to export teams of Apostolic and Prophetic missionaries into the USA and Europe.

 
These people will have a razor sharp ability to cast out religious spirits hindering moves of God. They will bring with them the fresh songs of praise and worship now ready for the hungry ears of the true worshiper.

 
The "cynical" Irishman will now become the grand believer declaring, "With God all things are possible"!

 
There will be a spotlight on Ireland with new technologies being developed and "mined" there. With it, doors will open for many to travel to Ireland and find Father and Mother mentors, ready to restore, train, and release.

 
France

 
The Father Once Again calls France, "A nation now in chaos."  But as an underground stream flows swiftly and quietly, so do those who have determined to pray and intercede with heart wrenching pleas for the Father to move within their land.

 
A spiritual passivity will begin to be addressed and shaken off of the hearts of fearful and hidden believers.

 
There will begin to be a few strong and ethical governmental leaders rise up who will begin to risk addressing the rapidly encroaching militant attacks against the people of France and its outlying regions.

 
There will be community vigils of prayer in local churches and the repenting of passiveness and elitist thinking.

 
German and French believers will begin to view one another in a Kingdom perspective and join in prayer and service to one another, creating a groundswell of food pantries with farmers and dairies that will create CO-OPs.

 
The key to breaking the spiritual stagnation in France will be the humbling of hearts before the Throne of God, and reaching out beyond its own borders.

 
Ephesians 2:14 For He is [Himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony).  He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us.

 
Germany

 
Germany will have a large revolt and uprising from among the youth as the economy continues to stress and bend.  Looting and the stealing and selling of automobiles will become a raging epidemic.

 
"For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him)." 1 Corinthians 1:21

 
Simultaneously, young street evangelists who have been well trained as well as well educated, will be commissioned to reach out to those rioting and manifesting.

 
Government leaders will not know what to do with the uproar, and sanctions against open religious expressions will be put in place.

 
Nevertheless, young Pauls and Silas's will not fear what man can do to them and will continue to flow in the power of Evangelism, seeing the hand of God spare the lives of many.

 
Jonah 3:2 "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach and cry out to it the preaching that I tell you."

 
Canada

 
Canada will experience one of its most prosperous seasons ever known, for a short season.

 
The Lord would have Canada know that they must deal fairly with the wealth that they will produce, and pay back the First Native families, and with Godly equity.

 
If this is not addressed with wisdom and integrity, Canada will have to pass through the sorrows of disobedience.

 
Canadian Intercessors are being awakened and called up to stand in the place of prayer for its leaders and tribes.

 
Now is not the time for silliness and laughter.  It is a sober day, with a command for sober prayers.

 
A Scripture for Canada at this Time

 
"Accordingly then, let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us keep wide awake (alert, watchful, cautious, and on our guard) and let us be sober (calm, collected, and circumspect)." 1 Thessalonians 5:6

 
"Get up! Stand UP! Be Purposeful!" says the Lord.

 
How do you not know that through your borders I can bring a North American Wave of Justice and Restoration?"

 
"So brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed." 1 Peter 1:13

 
In Closing,

 
I bless you, the reader and listener of these prophetic insights, in the name of Jesus.

 
May His word be a lamp to your feet and a light to your path.  2 Peter 1:21

 
"Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, 'No, don't worship me.  I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters who testify about their faith in Jesus.  Worship only God.  For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus.'" - Revelation 19:10

Why Jezebel Is on a Losing Streak on the Entertainment Mountain - Jennifer LeClaire

Why Jezebel Is on a Losing Streak on the Entertainment Mountain




'How to Get Away With Murder' is known for its explicit content.
'How to Get Away With Murder' is known for its explicit content. (Facebook)

Watchman on the Wall, by Jennifer LeClaire
The Jezebel spirit has been making its mark on our airwaves—and in our movie theaters—long enough. Television and film producers have made billions of dollars selling sex on the small screen and the big screen but intercession over the entertainment industry is starting to bear fruit.
Before we go further, let me clarify how the Jezebel spirit is working. I go into greater detail about this in my book, The Spiritual Warrior's Guide to Defeating Jezebel, but let Revelation 2:20 open your eyes to what the Jezebel spirit is and what are its motives: "But I have a few things against you," Jesus told the church at Thyatira, "You permit that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat food sacrificed to idols."
Jezebel is a seducing spirit. This spirit has been working overtime in our media for decades, with wardrobe malfunctions, illicit homosexual sex scenes on shows like How to Get Away With Murder, and the ever-popular and scandalous Scandal. But intercessors have been coming against the perversion in the entertainment industry and it's working.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is fining WDBJ Television $325,000 for broadcasting graphic and sexually explicit material during the station's evening newscast. Keep in mind that this never would have happened if people like you hadn't lifted their voices.

Indeed, the FCC's Enforcement Bureau investigated viewer complaints that WDBJ aired a news report that included graphic sexual images taken from an adult film website in the report. This enforcement action would be the highest fine the Commission has ever taken for a single indecent broadcast on one station.
"Our action here sends a clear signal that there are severe consequences for TV stations that air sexually explicit images when children are likely to be watching," says Travis LeBlanc, Chief of the FCC's Enforcement Bureau.
Glory to God!
Here's the backstory: The FCC investigation found that station staff obtained a sexually explicit video clip from an adult film website and broadcast those explicit images in the news report that aired at about 6 p.m. on July 12, 2012. That, of course, violated federal laws prohibiting the broadcast of indecent programming.
That's just one recent example of viewers rejecting Jezebelic content. Earlier this week, I wrote about how Sex Box, which featured real-life couples having sex for a national television audience, was cancelled. In the show, participants entered a soundproof box on stage, had sex and then discussed their "intimacy issues" with a panel of so-called experts, including a minister! WE tv, which hosted the show, called it a "groundbreaking, unprecedented and life-changing way for couples in crisis to heal their sexual and emotional issues." Prayer broke through. Meanwhile, Bayer pulled a sexually inappropriate Lotrimin ad less than 24 hours after the Americans cried out.
Although there's still plenty of work to do—and still plenty of intercession to make—these and other victories are evidence that the combination of prayer and action work. Of course, some people still don't get it. Jezebel has already blinded them. WDBJ, for example, is at a loss for why the FCC would fine it $325,000.
"We are surprised and disappointed that the FCC has decided to propose to fine WDBJ7 for a fleeting image on the very edge of some television screens during a news broadcast," said WDBJ7 President Jeffrey Marks. "The story had gone through a review before it aired. Inclusion of the image was purely unintentional. The picture in question was small and outside the viewing area of the video-editing screen."
Likely story. Let's keep praying—and keep lifting our voices.

Marriage Supporters Flood High Court Ahead of Case

Marriage Supporters Flood High Court Ahead of Case


The U.S. Supreme Court has received a barrage of briefs ahead of the upcoming case that could legalize same-sex marriage nationwide.

Dozens of opponents have filed briefs urging the justices not to enforce a sudden, radical change on society by redefining what constitutes a marriage.

One of the top arguments made in the briefs contends that same-sex marriage could harm children because information indicates children raised by two fathers or two mothers suffer more emotional pain.

In fact, six children who were raised by same-sex couples have even filed briefs stating their opposition to redefining marriage.

Heather Barwick and Katy Faust filed a "friend of the court" brief saying they endured harm because they were not raised by a father and a mother.

"We write to this Court as children raised by women in committed same-sex relationships. While we love and cherish our mothers, we feel it's imperative that we bring to this Court's attention the impact that redefining marriage will have on children like us," Barwick and Faust stated.

"We oppose gay marriage on the grounds that it violates children's rights and cannot provide children with the most foundational building blocks for child development - a mother and father living with and loving them," they said.

Some briefs argue the high court should let states limit marriage to a man and a woman for the sake of children.

They cite a recent study by the Rev. D. Paul Sullins, a Catholic University sociology professor, which shows that children brought up by same-sex parents have a higher rate of emotional and developmental problems.

"If children don't do as well when they are raised by same-sex parents, why would we want to establish or encourage that as a social norm?" Sullins asked.

Sullins has been criticized by supporters of same-sex marriage who say he skewed the study because he's Catholic. But he said the data doesn't lie.

"I don't know of any Catholic way to compute the equation," he said. "The idea that there are no differences is emphatically mistaken. I don't know how else to say that."

And the Alliance Defending Freedom points out that the American College of Pediatricians has filed a brief with other groups and scholars that argues "of the eight total large-scale studies that purport to evaluate the welfare of children raised by same-sex couples, the four most recent 'find that children with same-sex parents suffer substantially reduced well-being.'"

Meanwhile, supporters of traditional marriage also contend that a ruling in favor of same-sex marriage will remove all boundaries, opening marriage to three or more people.

"Expanding the definition of marriage away from the way cultures and civilization have always defined it can only lead to further confusion," said the Rev. Russell Moore, president of the Southern Baptist Convention's Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.

"We're always told that what we say is slippery-slope alarmism. And yet the slope is quite slippery," Moore warned.

Attorney John Bursch wrote a defense of Michigan's gay marriage ban. He will argue before the court on behalf of the states that same-sex couples can claim no constitutional right to marriage.

Bursch writes that his case is not about the best marriage definition, but "who decides, the people of each state or the federal judiciary?"

The Supreme Court will hear the case on April 28.
