Focus on "Shutdown"

Focus on "Shutdown" -- Suspended, for now.
Please find below four headlines covering the breaking news yesterday that the President has approved ending the shutdown for three weeks, allowing Congress to negotiate acceptable to all.
Our prayer request follows below.
1. Trump Threatens to Use Emergency Power to Build Wall If Congress Does Not Approve It by February 15 - CNSNews.com
President Donald Trump announced this afternoon that he had made a deal with leaders in Congress to sign a bill to fund the government until February 15 but warned that if Congress had not by that time agreed "to build a powerful wall or steel barrier" the government would either shutdown again or he would invoke a national emergency to build the wall without congressional approval.
"So let me be really clear: We really have no choice but to build a powerful wall or steel barrier," Trump said at the end of an address outside the White House. "If we don't get a fair deal from Congress, the government will either shutdown on February 15, again, or I will use the powers afforded to me under the laws and the Constitution of the United States to address this emergency," Trump said. "We will have great security," he said. (Read more)
2. Schumer Claims Victory: Trump 'Agreed to Our Request to Open Government and Then Debate Border Security' - CNSNews.com
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D.-N.Y.) went to the Senate floor Friday afternoon and said the agreement President Donald Trump made to end the partial government shutdown without any deal on building a border wall "endorses" the position the Democrats took during the impasse.
The Senate then held a voice vote to pass the bill to fund for three weeks those parts of the government that had been shut down.
"The President has agreed to our request to open the government and then debate border security, which is great news for 800,000 Federal workers and millions of Americans who depend upon government services," said Schumer.
"As Democrats have said all along, the solution to this impasse was to separate funding the government from our disagreements over border security," said Schumer. "This agreement endorses that position. It reopens the government without preconditions, and it gives Democrats and Republicans an opportunity to discuss border security without holding hundreds of thousands of American workers hostage. (Read more)
3. House GOP Leaders: Only 13 Democrats Voted With GOP to Pay Federal Workers During Shutdown - CNSNews.com
House Republican leaders said Thursday that only 13 Democrats joined with them in voting for legislation to pay all federal government workers - those working during the shutdown and those who are furloughed.
"As the shutdown continues, we've been committed to trying to make sure that all of our federal workers get paid. We brought another bill to the floor today that would have paid all federal workers. Last week, a similar bill only got six Democrats. Every Republican voted to pay the workers who had either been working or furloughed during the shutdown," House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) said during a Capitol Hill press conference.
"We got six Democrats to vote with us last week. Today, we only got 13 Democrats to vote with us, and so you're starting to see a growing number of Democrats break from their party leaders and recognize we've got to solve this problem," Scalise said, adding that all Republicans need is eight more Democrats to vote with them to pay all federal workers, "and everybody can get paid." (Read more)
4. House GOP Leaders: 'Unacceptable' for Dems Not to Come to the Table on Border Security Negotiations - CNSNews.com
House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) called on Democrats Thursday to stage an "intervention" with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and urge her to negotiate with President Donald Trump over funding for the border wall.
"We are here as you all know still in shutdown mode, still in a situation where the Democrats won't even talk, and to be in a position where they're saying that they want to open the government, that they're appalled that people aren't getting paid. We're appalled that people aren't getting paid, but we continue to vote to pay our federal workers," she said, referring to recent votes on bills to pay federal workers during the shutdown.
As CNSNews.com reported, only 13 Democrats voted with House Republicans to pay federal workers during the shutdown.
"It is absolutely untenable and unreasonable for them not to even come to the table, and I really hope that the Democrats will recognize soon the damage that Speaker Pelosi's doing to their party, that she's doing to this institution, that she's doing to the House of Representatives and to the United States by absolutely refusing to negotiate, by doing something nobody's ever done before - cancelling the State of the Union appearance of the president," Cheney said at a Capitol Hill press conference.
"I think it's time for the Democratic Party to have an intervention with the speaker and ask her to do what's right for the nation, what's right for their party, what's right for this institution. So we hope they will come to the table, but we have not seen any indication that they're even willing to be reasonable at this point, and as I said, that's bad for the nation above all," she added. (Read more)
- Father God, we thank You, that for now, this impasse is over, and we praise You for the humility demonstrated by our President in coming to this decision. We continue to ask for Your perfect will to be done in the days ahead, as President Trump works tirelessly to secure our southern border, in Your name, amen.
- " . . . Thy will be done . . ." (Matthew 6:10)

When pushing back on bullies
When I was in grade school, I was somewhat a scrawny kid, bookish, eager to learn. Some of the other kids saw this as weakness and they often picked on me. Back then, there was no cry-babying about bullies. You had to figure out your own way to stop them or they would just keep on pushing you around. One day, Jeff Williams, one of the bullies who was about three times bigger than me, decided to push my buttons. He had been shoving me around and making nasty comments all day. We were getting on the school bus and he pushed me out of the doorway and called me a name. So I followed him on the bus and sat next to him. What was about to happen surprised everyone and changed everything.
He was in the middle on the bench seat and was surprised I sat next to him. At least a head taller than me, he towered over me even as we sat down. I asked him what he called me when he pushed me out of the school bus door. He smirked as he looked around. By this time it seemed all the kids on the bus were looking to see what would happen. Jeff repeated himself loud enough for everyone to hear, and added "what do you think about that?" I replied, "This is what I think about it" as I punched him in the face as hard as I could, breaking his glasses and giving him a bloody nose. He cried like a baby. And that was the beginning of the end to people bullying me. Jeff and I actually became friends afterwards.
Fast forward to today. Trump cancelled use of US military aircraft for a Pelosi-led Democrat junket to Belgium, Egypt and Afghanistan, causing the media apoplexy. CNN's Jake Tapper went so far as to say, "The president of the United States is using the US military to get revenge on the speaker of the House." Really? Trump says he will allow the government to shut down if the Democrats don't provide enough funding to secure the border. The Democrats stub up and shut down the government. Pelosi unprecedentedly disinvites the president to give the State of the Union address and the president fights back by cancelling their junket. So the president is using the military against the Speaker of the House like some third world dictatorship. Wow. Think about the spin on that one.
We have had such weak leaders in the White House for so long that when one stands up to the bullies, nobody knows what to say-just like the people on the bus watching me slam Jeff Williams. It's OK for the bully to bully and claim the high ground, but when someone pushes back, it's all of a sudden a horrible breach of etiquette. Our government and leadership is a mess right now. Someone needs to stand for some common sense and put an end to all this "idiocracy." 'Seems an ilk of American society has been too passive for too long and now it will take harsh action to correct the situation. Psalm 101:5-6 says, "Whoso privily slanders his neighbor, him will I cut off: him that has a high look and a proud heart will I not suffer. My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land." Let's be faithful in standing for what is right.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

New York State's Abortion Ruling

|

The Empire State Strikes Babies:
New York State of Debased Mind
And they declare their sin as Sodom; They do not hide it. Woe to their soul! For they have brought evil upon themselves. ~ Isaiah 3:9
Dear Christian Warriors:
An extreme new abortion law in New York allows abortions until BIRTH and allows non-doctors to perform abortions. Outrageously, Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) ordered that the spire on the One World Trade Center be lit in pink to celebrate this abortion law "victory."
The law not only allows abortions until birth and non-doctors to do the abortion; it removes the killing of the infant as a crime, thus preventing pregnant women whose babies are killed in violent attacks from seeing justice. It also repeals the requirement that a second physician be on hand in the event an attempted abortion past 20 weeks yields a live infant.
"We have a president who's made it very, very clear that he wants to overturn Roe v. Wade," Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins declared before the vote. "Today, here in New York, we are saying no and we're not just saying no. We're saying that here in New York, women's health matters. We're saying here in New York, women's lives matter. We're saying here in New York, women's decisions matter."
Except that this doesn't include the health, life or decisions of any woman in the womb! What hypocrisy!
No, Ms. Stewart-Cousins, you are a promoter of DEATH. You are running hard in the race to debase life, neck and neck with Senator Gillibrand running to be President, who is also pro-death. In the spiritual warfare this nation is now engaged in, you are a tool of the anti-Christ spirit. You have enshrined infanticide in New York.
This was the State that once hosted our first President, George Washington, and the first speaker of the House of Representatives, a Lutheran Pastor, Frederick Muhlenberg. They repeatedly humbled themselves in prayer and repentance. God then favored New York and this nation. How far we have come since President Washington, when in New York at his inauguration, April 30, 1789, said "we ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven, can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right, which Heaven itself has ordained."
We have disregarded the eternal rules of order and right which Heaven has ordained.
> > > To read the rest of this article, written by Pastor Jeff Daly, National Day of Repentance, please go here. Pastor Jeff's prayer of repentance follows:
In Jesus/Yeshua's Holy Name, we confess this sin of abortion in our nation. There seems to be a race to debase life. There is a spirit of death loosed, like the spirit of Molech, wishing children to be killed as in a fire. Promoting Death is ultimately the death of our nation. Our hands are stained with innocent blood. Lord Jesus You are the Way, the Truth, and the LIFE. Please forgive us. Under Your Name above all names, under Your Precious Blood, and under Your authority, You give us Your Light. Help us remove this national stain of death. Replace these legislators, shamelessly legislating sins and celebrating death. Let us also each individually repent of what we have done to allow this evil to flourish under our watch. In Your Mercy and Wisdom help us return to Your Covenant, Your Divine Plan for this nation. Move on the minds and hearts of our leaders to see the spiritual warfare in which we are engaged. Move them to call for a day of prayer, fasting and repentance. ~Amen and Amen.
In Christ's Love,
Pastor Jeffrey Daly

Operation Restoration
Once each week, on Sunday mornings and for 24 hours, join with others in OPERATION RESTORATION . . .
"Operation Restoration"
This initiative is based upon the Move of the Spirit that was launched last month during Operation Refiner's Fire. The LORD has shown us that He has used those fires to ignite the FIRE of the HOLY SPIRIT to visit our people, which He now yearns to keep burning among our people until the day of His return!
"Operation Restoration" is based on the promise of Scripture, recorded in
2 Chronicles 7:14,15.
It is written:
. . . "and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
"Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place."
This is a weekly Solemn Assembly, where saints can feel free to gather each Sunday, to offer prayers of repentance before our Lord, for the many sins our nation has committed before Him.
Abba so desires to hear our prayers . . . He is just waiting to heal us!
You can join us, any Sunday, beginning at 9:00 a.m. EST by calling:
605-468-8850
Access Code: 221654#
Each
week, our conference line for Operation Restoration will remain open until
Monday morning at 9:00 a.m.EST -- allowing for 24 hours of nonstop prayer
before our King of Kings, that He might, indeed, "heal our land."
Amen. Access Code: 221654#

This Week's Prayer Focus: From the National Prayer Embassy
For the week of January 27 - February 2, 2019
About one month from now, on February 24th, the Academy Awards will be announced in Hollywood, California to honor excellence in the motion picture industry. Every year at this time the rest of the media focuses much attention on these awards, reminding us of the power of Hollywood to shape cultural values worldwide. In recent years some churches have begun using "Academy Award Sunday" as a reminder to pray for the entertainment industry. Using the media leader daily prayer calendar from mastermedia ministries. On February 8th Dr. Ted Baehr and his family will host the 27th Annual Movieguide Awards gala in Holywood as a pro-family, pro-Christian alternative to the Academy Awards. To coincide with the Movieguide gala the National Prayer Embassy will hold a special Hollywood prayer tour on February 9th. Let's pray:
"Father God, in the name of Jesus, we thank You for protecting, perfecting and promoting godly values through this year's Movieguide Awards and Academy Awards. According to Proverbs 21 verse one we pray for those in authority over all areas of our media, especially over Hollywood's major feature films. We thank You that by faith their hearts are in Your hands, and You are giving them Your wisdom and causing them to make good decisions that will promote godly values among all our citizens, especially our youth. In the name of Jesus, we agree that they have no desire to promote sin or rebellion or perversion of any kind, but instead they want to use all the power of the media to promote godly values, and help complete the Great Commission and advance the Kingdom of God. We agree with Your word that the kingdoms of the media in this world become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, in Jesus' name amen"
