A CALL FOR A DAY OF CORPORATE REPENTANCE BY
THE BODY OF CHRIST
IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
November 3, 2019A
IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
November 3, 2019A
An Introduction by John Robb, Founder, National Prayer Assembly (USA)
Chairman, International Prayer Council
International Coordinator, World Prayer Assembly (2012)
Dear Prayer Friends,
The situation in the USA has now become very critical with the serious division happening within our government, which is also a mark of the evil one's influence. His main strategy is to separate and divide. However, history belongs to the intercessors, especially if we identify in confession and repentance for our national sins as Nehemiah, Daniel and others did in Biblical history, moving the Lord to intervene and bring His deliverance and transformation. He will do the same for our embattled nation if we do our part and confess corporately "we have sinned". Some close friends in the prayer movement have recently put out this call to repentance for us. If you agree, please sign and forward it to others in your own church, organization or network so that it goes out far and wide. Let us observe Sunday, November 3, as a solemn day of repentance and practice a repentant lifestyle, going forward, not only for our own sins but also for our church, communities and the nation until we see His breakthrough.
May the Lord have mercy on the USA!
A CALL FOR A DAY OF CORPORATE REPENTANCE BY THE
BODY OF CHRIST
IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
November 3, 2019
"When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:13-14)
God
is calling us, the Body of Christ, to come together, fall on our knees and
confess the sin of our nation, repenting corporately, with ONE VOICE before
Him. Once that is done, God says He will hear us, forgive us and heal our land!
In order to do that, we must be convicted of our sin, and be willing to repent,
not just give lip service. "These people draw near to Me with their
mouth, and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me."
(Matthew 15:8) God is asking us if we are willing to receive the burden of
"conviction of the sin of this nation" in our hearts. As we agree, we
will be empowered to pray effectively in repentance for our nation! IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
November 3, 2019
"When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land." (2 Chronicles 7:13-14)
We are engaged in a spiritual battle . . . a warfare of love! Many in the Body of Christ are deeply concerned about the extreme danger being posed by the anti-Christ spirit, which is operating against not only our President but the United States of America at this very hour, trying to undermine and destroy our very foundations. Americans are distracted by a never-ending stream of "urgent" matters, while the media floods the airwaves 24/7 with "fake news" in an attempt to control our minds and instill fear in our hearts! What is taking place is a battle, against not only our Government but against individuals, families, churches and communities. It is an all-out war against the American way of life . . . and it has already been launched! "We, The People" are under attack! Unless the Body of Christ repents and then rises up in prayer, the United States will have no future.
"Even now," declares the Lord,
"return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and
mourning." Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your
God, for He is gracious and compassionate. (Joel 2:12-13)
Nothing
is too far out of reach that God cannot revive it. Repentance does not happen
spontaneously. It first takes place in individual hearts, is nurtured by prayer
and fasting, and is then birthed into the larger arena, often through solemn
assemblies. In Scripture, these solemn assemblies were often called by priests,
prophets or kings, for the entire nation. Prior to every national awakening in
the United States, there was an emphasis on repentance, with fasting and
prayer. Throughout our history, 788 solemn assemblies for national repentance
took place! The blessing of national repentance is not only that God heals and blesses the nation, but also that a passion for His Presence is stirred up in the Body of Christ.
During the Civil War, as President Abraham Lincoln struggled to mend a divided and war-torn nation and recenter Americans around God and prayer, he issued a proclamation on March 30, 1863, calling for a "Day of National Humiliation, Fasting, and Prayer." The text of Lincoln's proclamation has pointed lessons for today, as our nation is once again deeply divided. It repeatedly references God, calls on Americans to turn back to prayer and acknowledges the importance that God plays in human affairs. It was indeed a "call to repent before God" which is appropriate for us today.
"Whereas, the Senate of the United States, devoutly recognizing the Supreme Authority and just Government of Almighty God, in all the affairs of men and of nations, has, by a resolution, requested the President to designate and set apart a day for National prayer and humiliation.
And whereas it is the duty of nations as well as of men, to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions, in humble sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history, that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord.
And, insomuch as we know that, by His divine law, nations like individuals are subjected to punishments and chastisements in this world, may we not justly fear that the awful calamity of civil war, which now desolates the land, maybe but a punishment, inflicted upon us, for our presumptuous sins, to the needful end of our national reformation as a whole People?
We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved, these many years, in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us! It behooves us then, to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness.
Now, therefore, in compliance with the
request, and fully concurring in the views of the Senate, I do, by this my
proclamation, designate and set apart Thursday, the 30th day of April, 1863, as
a day of national humiliation, fasting and prayer. And I do hereby request all
the People to abstain, on that day, from their ordinary secular pursuits, and
to unite, at their several places of public worship and their respective homes,
in keeping the day holy to the Lord, and devoted to the humble discharge of the
religious duties proper to that solemn occasion.
All this being done, in sincerity and truth, let us then rest humbly in the hope authorized by the Divine teachings, that the united cry of the Nation will be heard on high, and answered with blessings, no less than the pardon of our national sins, and the restoration of our now divided and suffering Country, to its former happy condition of unity and peace. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed."
All this being done, in sincerity and truth, let us then rest humbly in the hope authorized by the Divine teachings, that the united cry of the Nation will be heard on high, and answered with blessings, no less than the pardon of our national sins, and the restoration of our now divided and suffering Country, to its former happy condition of unity and peace. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed."
By the President: Abraham Lincoln
Today,
October 3, 2019, we, the undersigned, call the Body of Christ to a DAY OF
CORPORATE REPENTANCE for the United States of America, to take place on Sunday,
November 3, 2019, as a step toward a NATIONAL DAY OF REPENTANCE! (First 8 cosigners)

Turkey: Trump Takes Action

Office of Public Affairs
Treasury Developing New Authorities to Target Turkey for Any Potential Human Rights Abuses or Destabilizing Actions in Syria
Impending Presidential E.O. Will Authorize Treasury to Sanction Turkish Government Agencies and Officials
Washington - Given Turkey's ongoing military offensive in northeastern Syria, President Donald J. Trump intends to sign an Executive Order to dissuade Turkey from any further offensive military action in northeast Syria, including but not limited to indiscriminate targeting of civilians, targeting of civilian infrastructure, targeting of ethnic or religious minorities, or targeting or other actions that undermine the continued counterterrorism activities of the Syrian Democratic Forces. It is imperative that Turkey not allow even a single ISIS fighter to escape. The Order will delegate to the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the President and the Secretary of State, authority to designate individuals and entities of the Government of Turkey involved in human rights abuses or actions leading to the further deterioration of peace, security, and stability in northeastern Syria. The Order also will give the Secretary of the Treasury the authority to impose secondary sanctions on those engaging in knowing and significant transactions with designated individuals and entities of the Government of Turkey.
"At the direction of President Trump we will be targeting specific Turkish individuals or departments as needed," said Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin. "This is a notice to banks and other parties to be on notice of potential actions."

More impeachment chicanery
Two Ukrainian men are being tied to nefarious and illegal activity with the president and his attorney Rudi Giuliani. Ukrainians Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman have been indicted by the US attorney in Manhattan on four counts, including conspiracy, falsification of records and lying to the Federal Election Commission about a $325,000 donation to a super PAC to support Trump. The Wall Street Journal's (WSJ) story insinuates that the two men helped Giuliani investigate Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, were part of the president's inner circle, and made illegal donations. It's another "reason to impeach" headline, but the truth is buried deep in the story and it takes a discerning eye to spot it.
WSJ establishes that these Ukrainians attended functions at the White House, shows pictures of them with Trump as well as with his son, Donald Trump, Jr., while reporting that the president said he didn't know the men. Of course, there are countless people who get their pictures taken with presidents, that the president would never recall their names or their faces. But a picture connotates familiarity. It is not until late in the story that it is revealed that those campaign donations, which allegedly have a circuitous route with "Russian" connections, were not made during the 2016 cycle, but rather for the current cycle to support the president and other Republicans running for office. But wait, there is more.
The $325,000 was thought to be suspicious when it came in to the America First Action super PAC. This key information is buried late in the story after all the narrative that raises suspicions is laid out. WSJ reports, "In May 2018, the men separately gave $325,000 to the primary pro-Trump super PAC, America First Action, through the LLC Global Energy Producers, according to the indictment and FEC records. The way they structured that donation was meant "to evade the reporting requirements" in federal law, prosecutors alleged. The indictment also alleges that Mr. Fruman intentionally misspelled his name to further evade FEC scrutiny."
Here's the kicker as reported by WSJ, "A spokeswoman for America First Action said the super PAC had placed the contribution in a segregated bank account after a complaint was filed in July 2018 with the FEC. The donation "has not been used for any purpose, and the funds will remain in this segregated account until these matters are resolved," the spokeswoman said. "We take our legal obligations seriously and scrupulously comply with the law and any suggestion otherwise is false."" This appears to be another narrative to cast sinister suspicions on Giuliani and the president regarding Ukraine and Russia. The attempts to confuse and deceive Americans continue. Christ said in Luke 12:2, "For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed." May it be so in all of this. Don't be deceived by the headlines.

Why your opinion on impeachment is important
There are a myriad of polls gauging whether the public wants the president impeached. It appears, however, that many do not know what impeachment is, how it is done, or even if what the president has done is an impeachable offense. The Democratic Party leadership could very well be using this non-official "impeachment inquiry" for political purposes to buy time to bombard the public with a propaganda narrative to sway voter opinion against the president and his party. The news media is doing little, if nothing, to get to the specifics of what the Democrats think is an impeachable offense and whether the charges, which formally have not been made, are credible. Let's start with the Constitution.
Article I Section II of the Constitution states: "The House of Representatives shall choose their speaker and other officers; and shall have the sole power of impeachment." Article I Section 3 says, "The Senate shall have the sole power to try all impeachments. When sitting for that purpose, they shall be on oath or affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no person shall be convicted without the concurrence of two thirds of the members present." Article II Section 4 states: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."
Impeachment is a political, not a necessarily a criminal action. Treason and bribery are particularly definable. According to the Constitution, treason can occur only in a wartime situation. Bribery is taking something of value for an act. High crimes and misdemeanors give Congress a large berth to impeach-and that could be anything Congress determines is impeachable. The House of Representatives can impeach a president with a simple majority vote. Once impeached, the president would be tried in the Senate, where it takes two-thirds of the members present to remove him from office. The House would appoint members to prosecute the case against the president before the Senate.
The Democratic Leadership is making the case before the people that seeking assistance from a foreign country to investigate a political opponent is an impeachable offense. A law doesn't need to be broken for impeachment. The bar is whether this act deserves removal from office. Other charges are/will be added-obstruction of justice, obstruction of Congress, conspiring with a foreign government, etc. The Democratic Party is gambling that the citizens of America will support impeachment-This is why it is so important for the media to sway public opinion against the president and his party. This brings into clearer focus the reports about an ongoing coup attempt. As 2 Timothy 3:13 says, "But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived." Your opinion matters. Make it known.

Operation Restoration
BULLETIN!! PLEASE NOTE OUR NEW NUMBER AND ACCESS CODE:
712-770-5350
150411#
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:
712-770-5350
Access Code: 150411#
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: 150411#
