Luke 21:25 “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations,
We are entering a time that Jesus called the distress of nations.
1) external conflict with and among the nations.
2) civil war brewing in our nation.
3) Very influential people in our nation and outside our nation want a civil war. It is not an accident; it is planned.
4) While infighting is happening within the borders of our nation-when we are the most vulnerable- the enemy will seek to strike and even breach our nation.
This year is to be a year where our prayers and intercession will make the difference in the outcome.
Revelation 6:9-11 When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?” Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the full number of their fellow servants, their brothers and sisters, were killed just as they had been.
Revelation 8:3-5 Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne. The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand. Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it on the earth; and there came peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.
Isaiah 62:6-7 I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never be silent day or night. You who call on the Lord, give yourselves no rest, and give him no rest till he establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.

Acts 12:5 So Peter was kept in prison, but fervent and persistent prayer for him was being made to God by the church.
We are entering an era where there must be strategic intercessors that rise up to go and pour oil in the wounds of this land.
Genesis 28:10-13,17 Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Harran. When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep. He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. There above it stood the Lord, and he said: “I am the Lord… He was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven.”
Genesis 28:17 This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.”
I Corinthians 6:19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit
As God’s gate into the earth, we are the tools whom God will use to release His reality into this one.
In the Spirit, there are gateway cities that both God and Satan use as an entryway to bring something new into a nation.
An altar is a place we sacrifice to God and there is an exchange of power.
Genesis 22:16-18 “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.”
2 Chronicles 1:7 That night God appeared to Solomon and said to him, “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.”
2 Chronicles 1:6 Solomon went up to the bronze altar before the Lord in the tent of meeting and offered a thousand burnt offerings on it.
We want God to do all kinds of things in our lives, our families and our finances and yet we are unwilling to build an altar of sacrifice to the Lord.
Anytime there is the shedding of blood or the taking of a life, you will find that a demonic portal opens.
We've been called to cover our community.
Luke 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
Jeremiah 29:5-7 “Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease. Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it,
God's not calling you to run from the world, He's calling you to run the world righteously.
Occupation is influence without assimilation.
