The Middle East in Focus

1. Paris conference to ask Israel and PA to commit to two states - Israel National News

The countries that will attend the Middle East peace conference in Paris on Sunday are expected to call on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas to publicly renew their commitment to the two-state solution, and to renounce officials in their respective governments who oppose it, Haaretz reported on Monday.

The clause is contained in an updated draft of the conference's summary statement, a copy of which was obtained by the newspaper.

The Paris conference, scheduled for January 15, is part of France's initiative to relaunch the Israel-PA peace talks which have been stalled since 2014.

Read more

- Father God, we lift up this conference to You in prayer. We pray for the protection of Israel. We pray for each country's' representative and ask that You move in their hearts and minds to protect Israel. We ask that nothing is allowed to happen outside of Your perfect will. In the name of Yeshua, amen.

2. Israel Cuts $6 Million to UN in Response to Shameful Resolution - Breaking Israel News

Israel announced Friday that in an "act of protest," it will suspend about $6 million in funding to the United Nations in protest of the recent U.N. Security Council vote that condemned Israeli settlements.

The Israeli government explained that the decrease in the country's $40 million in total funding for the U.N. symbolically represents a cut to the portion of the U.N. budget that is allocated to anti-Israel bodies, including The Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People; The Division for Palestinian Rights; The Work of the Special Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices; and the Special Information Programme on the Question of Palestine of the U.N. Department of Public Information.

Read more

- Heavenly Father, we pray blessings upon Israel for standing up against the UN. We pray that our leaders would do the same. In the name of Yeshua, amen.

3. Israeli advocacy group sues Twitter over ISIS propaganda - Israel Hayom

An Israeli advocacy group has filed a lawsuit against social media giant Twitter for allowing Islamic State propaganda to flourish on its platform.

The Shurat Hadin Israeli Law Center filed the suit with the Federal Court for the Southern District of New York, arguing that Islamic State uses Twitter to recruit operatives, disseminate jihadi propaganda and promote terrorist attacks, such as the Brussels airport bombing in March 2016 and the November 2015 Paris attacks, which together claimed nearly 200 lives and left hundreds of people wounded.

"This is the first lawsuit that details how Twitter has played a key role in making Islamic State the most formidable terrorist organization in the world today, and how Islamic State uniquely used Twitter in the context of two of the most serious attacks to take place in Europe recently," Shurat Hadin Chairwoman attorney Nitsana Darshan-Leitner explained Monday.

4. Pope Francis and Abbas to meet at the Vatican - Israel National News

Pope Francis will grant Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas an audience at the Vatican on Saturday, the Holy See confirmed on Tuesday, according to AFP.

It will be the third time that the Pope has met Abbas following an encounter during the pontiff's 2014 trip to the Holy Land and the Abba's 2015 visit to the Vatican to attend a canonization ceremony for two Palestinian nuns, noted AFP.

5. The cleric who legitimized suicide attacks against Israel has reversed his ruling. Hamas isn't listening - Times of Israel

The relentless suicide bombing campaign of Hamas during the Second Intifada (2000-2005), which killed hundreds of Israeli civilians, enjoyed a degree of mainstream Muslim legitimacy thanks to Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the highest Sharia authority for the Muslim Brotherhood and one of the Arab world's most well-known scholars.

Qaradawi famously permitted suicide attacks solely against Israelis, while publicly denouncing the September 11, 2001, attacks in the United States.

But in November, the Egyptian cleric publicly declared suicide attacks, even against Israelis, were no longer allowed. Explaining the reversal, he said the Palestinians had obtained "other capabilities" to defend themselves - a reference to Hamas's rocket arsenals, used against Israel to devastating effect in recent rounds of conflict.

The Daily Brief

Please note:
Every prayer below is presented to our Lord in the Name of Jesus Christ, amen.


1. Kerry to attend Mideast peace conference in Paris - Times of Israel

US Secretary of State John Kerry will attend a Middle East peace conference in Paris on Sunday, in a move likely to dismay an already angry Israel.

Neither Israel nor the Palestinian leadership will attend the talks, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the meeting will only widen the gaps between Israel and the Palestinians.

Just weeks after the UN Security Council voted to condemn Israeli settlement building, the talks are meant to underline global support for a two-state peace deal. (Read more)

- Father God, we ask for Your mercy to be upon us, even as our leaders are going astray. We stand in the gap for our nation, and we thank You that You will fight for Israel, when the time comes. We repent that the Secretary of State is taking this action, and we ask forgiveness in Your name, amen.

- "It will come about at that time that I will make Jerusalem a heavy weight; so everyone who burdens themselves with it will be crushed, even though all of the nations of the earth gather themselves against it." (Zech. 12:3)


2. In Paris, Further Maneuvers Against Israel Indicate Obama "Has Gone Rogue" - Jerusalem Journal

In a video interview posted yesterday by the Wall Street Journal, Anne Bayefsky was asked what further steps the UN might take against Israel in the aftermath of upcoming talks in Paris Middle East Peace conference that starts in five days, on 15 January.

Bayefsky is Director of the Touro Institute on Human Rights and the Holocaust. She is also a regular analyst on major media networks in the US and Canada.

According to Bayefsky, the Paris talks are all about Barack Obama who, behind the scenes, has engineered the confab. "The situation," she says, "is that the President of the United States has gone rogue." What she means is that, "essentially, he is upending the transition of power" to US President-elect Donald J. Trump. (Read more)

- Father God, we come against the spirit of the usurper, who would try to push its own agenda illegally. We bind its power, and we release the Word of God, which is the Law of God, to prevail in this instance, in Your name. We ask you to forgive Barack Hussein Obama for his increasingly desperate actions in the last minutes of his term of office, in Your name, amen.

- "Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 18:18)


3. Sessions decries 'caricature' of him at AG hearing, vows recusal on Clinton matters - Fox News

Attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions and his allies, at the first confirmation hearing for President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet picks, mounted a full-scale response Tuesday to what they described as "character" attacks against him - decrying "false charges" about his past while offering assurances that if confirmed he would uphold and enforce the law. (Read more)

- Father God, we lift up this honorable man to You. Give him favor and success. Be his Shield; help him conduct himself professionally in the face of all these false charges against him. In Your Name, amen.

- "He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones." (Proverbs 2:7-8)


4. Trump to Republicans: Act swiftly to replace Obamacare - Reuters

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday pressured fellow Republicans working to repeal Obamacare in Congress to pass a replacement for the healthcare law at the same time or soon after they vote to dismantle it.

Trump told the New York Times he wanted a substitute for President Barack Obama's 2010 healthcare law done "very quickly or simultaneously" to the vote to get rid of it. (Read more)

- Father, we pray the Republican leadership will heed this advice, moving quickly and decisively to remove this burden from our people.

- "Deliver me, my God, from the power of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and oppressive." (Psalm 71:4)


5. John Fund: Sneaky feds plot to grab state election power - WND

The Obama administration is using the intelligence reports of Russian hacking influencing the 2016 campaign as the premise for asserting more power over the states in running elections, but a top election fraud expert says federal involvement would make elections more vulnerable to mischief and is really just a way to insert the federal government where it doesn't belong. (Read more)

- Father of justice, we pray for Your protection over our electoral process. May all efforts to defraud, control or manipulate the votes of the people come to nothing.

- "For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of bribery (wrong and injustice). They conceive mischief and bring forth wickedness, and their inmost soul prepares deceit and fraud." (Job 15:34-35)


6. Transgender Case Goes to Supreme Court - Liberty Counsel

Today Liberty Counsel filed an amicus brief at the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of the Gloucester County School Board in Virginia on the so-called transgender bathroom decision in G.G. v. Gloucester County School Board. This is the first time that the Court has addressed the question of whether laws protecting against sex discrimination in education are applicable to "gender identity." (Read more)

- Father, we agree with Your Word and proclaim it over those with gender identity issues. You made us in Your image, male and female as a blessing to us.

- "When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God. He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them "Mankind" when they were created." (Genesis 5:1b-2)


7. Va. Governor Issues Executive Order Allowing Only Pro-LGBT Groups to Receive State Contracts - The Christian Post

Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe has signed an executive order barring the state from giving contracts to businesses that do not have antidiscrimination policies regarding sexual orientation and gender identity.

Governor McAuliffe signed Executive Order 61 last Thursday at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, with it taking immediate effect. (Read more)

- Father, this action is discriminatory - towards those who love You and Your Word. We pray all those doing business with the State of Virginia would be protected from this Executive Order.

- "The one who lives with integrity will be helped, but one who distorts right and wrong will suddenly fall." (Proverbs 28:18)


8. Taiwan scrambles jets, navy as China aircraft carrier enters Taiwan Strait - Reuters

Taiwan scrambled jets and navy ships on Wednesday as a group of Chinese warships, led by its sole aircraft carrier, sailed through the Taiwan Strait, the latest sign of heightened tension between Beijing and the self-ruled island. (Read more)

- Father, we pray for reduced tensions between Taiwan and China. Give the leaders of these nations wisdom and prudence.

- "Where there is strife, there is pride, but wisdom is found in those who take advice." (Proverbs 13:10)


9. NHS rejects claims of 'humanitarian crisis' in England's hospitals - BBC

In Venezuela, food has become so scarce it's now being sold on the black market. One person tells the Associated Press, "it's a better business than drugs." And the food traffickers are the very people sworn to protect Venezuela: the nation's military.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro gave the military complete control of the food supply last summer, after people began protesting in the streets over food rationing. Shortages had become so bad that people were even ransacking grocers - though many were largely empty.

These days, hunger remains widespread. But if you venture into the black markets, you'll find foods that aren't available in the state-run supermarkets, "where people would prefer to shop because it's a lot cheaper," says Joshua Goodman, the AP's news director for the Andes. He was part of the AP team that investigated the food trafficking situation. (Read more)

- Father, the people of Venezuela have nothing to eat. The lines to get even bread are long and frustrating. They have protested, marched, and done everything, to no avail. We pray for Your intervention in their lives, and a fresh move of Your Spirit to let them know that You are real. Let all corruption cease, and let their "leadership" be removed.

- "Who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. The Lord gives freedom to the prisoners." (Psalm 146:7)


10. The Favorite Bible Verses of 88 Nations - Christianity Today

Zechariah 14:9 doesn't show up often on lists of favorite Bible verses. "The Lord will be king over the whole earth," it reads in the New International Version of the Bible. "On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name."

But last year, these words of Zechariah showed up as the top verse on YouVersion with the most highlights, bookmarks, and shares in two countries with little else in common. People in both Israel and Afghanistan engaged most with it-and so did those in France, Finland, Sweden, Guadeloupe, Belgium, Martinique, and Cyprus.

Overall, the world's favorite Bible verse in 2016 was Romans 8:28: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Read more)

- Father, we thank You people all over the world are seeking out Your Truth. We pray they would find and accept the embodiment of Truth, our Lord Jesus Christ.

- "The Lord will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name." (Zech. 14:9)

Last speech, shadow government ahead


Breaking with tradition of a president giving his farewell speech from the White House, the outgoing occupant of the Oval Office used the symbol of his eight years in office as a backdrop-Chicago, replete with the highest murder rate in the country amid the strictest gun prohibitions, and quite possibly among the worst local economies in America. His speech was over 51 minutes--longer than the farewell speeches of Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and George W Bush combined, and he referred to himself some 75 times. What he went on to say in this speech is about as incredulous as one could imagine, but its his story and he is sticking to it, damn the truth.

He said, "If I had told you eight years ago that America would reverse a great recession, reboot our auto industry, and unleash the longest stretch of job creation in our history - if I had told you that we would open up a new chapter with the Cuban people, shut down Iran's nuclear weapons program without firing a shot, take out the mastermind of 9-11 - if I had told you that we would win marriage equality and secure the right to health insurance for another 20 million of our fellow citizens - if I had told you all that, you might have said our sights were set a little too high." Applying some truth-45 million on government assistance; over 14 million left the workforce; his deal gave Iran nuclear capability; socialist healthcare is an abject failure; and he did more to destroy marriage and Christianity than all other presidents combined.

He outlined what "we" are going to have to do in the future-a new social contract to make sure our kids get a free education; update the social safety net to reflect the way we live now; update the tax code so corporations and individuals "don't avoid their obligations to the country that has made their very success possible"; unionizing all workers for better wages. Sound like a shadow government in the making? He also defined what "citizens" should do to bring about change and affirmed, "I won't stop; in fact, I will be right there with you, as a citizen, for all my remaining days." Then he went on to lead his chant, "Yes, we can. Yes, we did. Yes, we can." This leaves the impression of his plans for the future-can, did, can, again.

He went on to reveal the world according to him: "Because of the extraordinary courage of our men and women in uniform. Because of our intelligence officers and law enforcement and diplomats who support our troops, no foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and executed an attack on our homeland these past eight years." I guess the last 8 attacks by Muslims, some claimed by the Islamic State, were just workplace violence. Ephesians 5:6 says, "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience." His deception, America's disobedience by believing him instead of God's word, has and will bring wrath upon us. He says "good bye." Many say "good riddance." We all should pray that God have mercy on our nation.

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

Jericho March for the Future of The United States

(January 14-17)


A Message from Dave Kubal, President/CEO
Intercessors for America

We sit upon a wonderful opportunity that the Lord has given us through this past election season. Now we must take advantage of that opportunity by battling in the spiritual realm to attain the victories He has for us. This is not unlike the days of young Israel when they sought to occupy the land that the Lord had given them. They approached the walled, battle-hardened city of Jericho, and then the Lord gave the battle strategy:

Then the Lord said to Joshua, "See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men. March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams' horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets. When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have the whole army give a loud shout; then the wall of the city will collapse and the army will go up, everyone straight in." (Joshua 6:2−5, NIV).

The strategy was simple:

1. March for six days blowing the signaling trumpet to announce the Presence of God.

2. Shout to the enemy on the seventh day, allowing the Presence of God to break down the walls.
For too long our adversary has built mighty walls around our elected officials in Washington, D.C. So, starting on January 13, 2017, we will begin a seven-day Jericho march around the White House and Capitol, culminating with a mighty "shout" by believers across the nation as President-elect Donald Trump takes the oath of office and is installed as our new President of the United States of America. Many believers will be in D.C. marching on the same days, along with multitudes of others joining on January 20 as they watch the inauguration ceremonies. Unity is the key. Please use the prescribed battle strategy by declaring the coming victory of the Lord using the Scriptures included in this resource and by shouting to the Lord as the applause rises when President Trump utters the last words of his oath of office.
Our assignments:

1. THE MARCH

January 14-19 - Teams of intercessors will be prayer walking (marching) around the US Capitol and the White House complex declaring the coming presence of our Lord and destruction of the walls of protection around those oppose Him. Those not able to be in DC during these times may do the same during their prayer times.

2. THE NATIONAL SHOUT!

January 20 - As President Trump finishes his oath of office, at the moment of the transition of power, all intercessors are instructed to shout to the Lord with faith and expectation that the spiritual walls will be destroyed at that moment. For those not in DC, please do this wherever you are and consider joining thousands across this nation by dialing 712-432-0075 then enter the code 1412452#. The call will start at the beginning of the Inauguration Ceremony.

Classic Hymns:

JESUS SHALL REIGN

"He will rule from sea to sea and from the River to the ends of the earth." (Psalm 72:8)

Lyrics

Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more.

Behold the islands with their kings, And Europe her best tribute brings; From north to south the princes meet, To pay their homage at His feet.

There Persia, glorious to behold, There India shines in eastern gold; And barb'rous nations at His word Submit, and bow, and own their Lord.
To Him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown His head; His Name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice.

People and realms of every tongue Dwell on His love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on His Name.

Blessings abound wherever He reigns; The prisoner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blessed.
Where He displays His healing power, Death and the curse are known no more: In Him the tribes of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost.

Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the loud amen!

Great God, whose universal sway The known and unknown worlds obey, Now give the kingdom to Thy Son, Extend His power, exalt His throne.
The scepter well becomes His hands; All Heav'n submits to His commands; His justice shall avenge the poor, And pride and rage prevail no more.

With power He vindicates the just, And treads th'oppressor in the dust: His worship and His fear shall last Till hours, and years, and time be past.

As rain on meadows newly mown, So shall He send his influence down: His grace on fainting souls distills, Like heav'nly dew on thirsty hills.
The heathen lands, that lie beneath The shades of overspreading death, Revive at His first dawning light; And deserts blossom at the sight.

The saints shall flourish in His days, Dressed in the robes of joy and praise; Peace, like a river, from His throne Shall flow to nations yet unknown.

Words: Isaac Watts, 1719

Scientists Predict Star Collision Visible To The Naked Eye In 2022

Scientists predict that a pair of stars in the constellation Cygnus will collide in 2022, give or take a year, creating an explosion in the night sky so bright that it will be visible to the naked eye.

If it happens, it would be the first time such an event was predicted by scientists.

Calvin College professor Larry Molnar and his team said in a statement that two stars are orbiting each other now and "share a common atmosphere, like two peanuts sharing a single shell."
They predict those two stars, jointly called KIC 9832227, will eventually "merge and explode . . . at which time the star will increase its brightness ten thousand fold, becoming one of the brighter stars in the heavens for a time." That extra-bright star is called a red nova. They recently presented their research at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Grapevine, Texas. (NPR) Read more.

"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea." (Luke 21:25)

PrayerSurgeNow: Updates
Our good friend, Dai Sup Han, raised up PrayerSurgeNow at the leading of our Lord, nine years ago. Ever since then, "PSN" has hosted weekly conference calls every Saturday morning from 7:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. EST, with speakers who provide briefings to the Body of Christ of different topics needing prayer.
PSN also offers other opportunities now, throughout the week each week, to join with other seasoned intercessors in releasing targeted prayers for our nation.
