Prayer at Noon

[Music] do [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] good afternoon family pray everyone is well today and we are thankful for this opportunity to again seek the lord and to bring our petitions to him to pray without ceasing the bible says i was thinking of what scripture i might read as we begin noonday prayer here on this tuesday and i've been in a series i started a series this past sunday on the armor of god and these scriptures keep speaking to me about prayer the power of prayer and there's so much to pray about today so many specific things that we want to lift up to god today and um i'll share some more about all that with you as we just kind of follow the river of god here in prayer but ephesians tells us in the whole uh section about the armor of god ephesians tells us you know we are supposed to have our feet shot with the preparation of the gospel of peace we're supposed to have the belt of truth we're supposed to have a breastplate of righteousness we're supposed to have the sword of the spirit which is the word of god the helmet of salvation the shield of faith at the end of the piece and the section on the armor of god it says right after he says take the sword of the spirit without ending his thought without ending his thought he says praying always with all prayer and supplication in the spirit being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all saints and i want you to know today there's a lot that we can pray for and we're going to pray today we're going to pray for afghanistan i've got some very personal requests that i'm going to share with you because i just want agreement over some things and i need some people to pray with me about some things going on in our own situation in our own personal life some family that are in the military and some things going on over in afghanistan lots to pray about today but here's what i want you to hear me say what i want you to hear me say is that paul encourages us to pray for all believers everywhere all the saints for for perseverance and for supplication and we have to even when we don't feel like praying paul said persevere in prayer perseverance in prayer and supplication that the saints may be able to persevere and i feel like today there's going to be some people who just have to make up your mind you're going to persevere in prayer maybe you don't feel like it today maybe today is not a real spiritual day for you maybe today is not it doesn't feel victorious it's raining outside here in chattanooga maybe maybe just the the place you are in life the place our world is in maybe it's got you feeling heavy and you don't necessarily feel victory but i'm going to tell you today prayer is a powerful thing and when you persevere in prayer and you make up your mind you're going to ask seek and knock matthew chapter 6 ask seek and knock ask and it shall be given seek and you will find knock in the door shall be opened i want to tell you that when you decide to persevere in prayer even when you don't feel like it heaven begins to move in your direction heaven begins to move in your direction and someone today needs heaven to move in their direction you don't even know how to get toward heaven but i'm going to tell you today heaven is coming in your direction today the spirit of god is going to invade your life today and you may not feel a real victorious cadence in your prayer today but i'm going to challenge you just to lift your voice and with what strength you have today let us seek the lord together let us ask the lord for direction and let us ask the lord for intervention some of us need to ask the lord for freedom some of us need to ask the lord for forgiveness some of us need to ask the lord for provision whatever it is you need from god i want you to know that heaven is going to come in your direction today the spirit of the lord hallelujah is going to move in your direction today the prophet isaiah would say that the hand of the lord is not too short that it cannot save the ear of god listen to this the ear of god is not so heavy that it cannot hear your cry today and it may not be a shout it may not be a loud lifting of the voice maybe it will be but it might be a whisper in god's direction if you'll draw near to him he will draw near to you if you'll turn your heart toward god right now and set your heart in his direction i want to declare to you that god will move toward those who move toward him he said it this way in the book of james draw near to god and he will draw near to you and i want to tell you today he'll draw near to you when you feel strong and when you feel victorious and when you feel like you're more than a conqueror but i got good news he'll draw near to those that are weak in their body that are sick in their body that are troubled in their mind that even feel defeated in some way just lift your voice and begin to praise him and watch him begin to draw near to you today just just lift up your worship toward him and give him your your your undivided attention today and watch what the spirit of the lord begins to do in your life there's something powerful there's something

intervention a lot of bad things would happen and a lot of powerful things would have never happened it was the angels of the lord that smote the enemies of israel in the old testament it was the angel of the lord that visited zechariah in the temple and told him he was going to have john it was the angel of the lord that visited mary and told us she was going to have jesus it was the angel of the lord that told joseph not to go back to egypt and then to go back to egypt angels from heaven intervene when warfare is happening and history and and the purpose and the plan of god are at stake

faith that today god rises up in the nation of afghanistan on behalf of the innocent there on behalf of the of the orphan there on behalf of those who have no one to stand up and fight for them come on father angels from heaven are waiting on your command and we declare your word over afghanistan right now the nations belong to the lord and we declare you that you have given them the nation you

supposed to go to kabul to be a part of this rescue operation and you're seeing this happen all over the news just a day or two before my nephew was to go he he got covered had no symptoms but they would not let him go his battalion went they are there on the ground now and they are doing all that they can to rescue um the innocent to help the u.s citizens get out it's a very volatile situation we're watching this unfold it's a it's a horrible situation but i have felt for the last 48 hours the weight as as you watch on television and you hear what is going on there and the threats and the and the danger you think about um these young ladies and young men who've gone for the sake of freedom and i i want us to pray today for those five or six thousand troops that have been um sent from america for this rescue operation and mission that the lord would protect them would you would you join me now in and just pray i know this is different but we need to pray because i want the military there we're asking god to protect them and you may say pastor there in the military well i just believe that god cares about those soldiers that we are sending and i believe that he will raise up a hedge of protection around them today i want you to agree with me now that those sons and daughters young and some older they mean so much to their families and i want us to pray for them today lord i come before you today lord i i lift up these service men and women that have gone to afghanistan and some that are going in the next several hours and next several days lord would you just put a hedge of protection around them today we we prayed that they would they would experience the grace of god those that know you and some that don't even know you are their god some that are born again and they're believers and some are not they're they're so far away from you i'm asking you abba in your mercy which is new every morning in your grace lord god that is sufficient and your love that is overwhelming would you just go there now and protect our service men and women god those innocent people that are in afghanistan lord i've even been made aware through some of our leaders that church leaders are running to the mountains trying to get away from the pursuing taliban lord i'm asking you now to protect life i am asking you now to protect life lord i'm praying in the name of jesus that you will protect and preserve the life of those that are innocent and those that have gone to rescue watch over them today holy spirit i pray angels of the lord would intercept plans of the enemy in the name of the lord jesus christ i play that straight i pray in jesus name that strategies that the taliban are trying to execute would come to nothing that their plans would be foiled i pray you would confuse the enemy come on here help me pray i pray you would confuse the enemy send a spirit of confusion into the camp of the taliban come on i know this is crazy but god is hearing us now send a spirit of confusion into the camp of the taliban leaders i pray god right now that their plans would be thwarted that they would be brought to nothing i pray that the government of our our nation would intercept these communications and would be always one step ahead i pray for a prophetic voice lord i pray that you would raise up prophetic voices even there in afghanistan to know what the enemy's plans are and may we always be ahead of the enemy in that nation in the name of jesus we speak the blessing of god over the nation of afghanistan and god i just want to declare because i sensed this in my heart that what the devil has thought he would do in afghanistan it will not work the plan of darkness will not prevail and this moment that looks like a moment of devastation and destruction may you move sovereignly may you move supernaturally may you move in your cadence in your time in your way and may you move in a way that only you could move and get the glory for it we will give the glory to you and we pray god for awakening and shaking to come to afghanistan and i pray in the name of jesus it would begin this day come on now lift your voice up and begin do it just to declare that and decree that it begins this day heaven let heaven come and move in the direction of afghanistan yeah let help come from heaven today for afghanistan jesus jesus the lurches quicken my heart to exodus chapter 14 verse 25 and this is what i want to declare over what the taliban is plotting and the enemies of the church there in afghanistan and in the middle east the lord i just heard this in my spirit he said declare their chariot wheels will come off um and you know a vehicle always represents a structure a ministry an organization and in exodus chapter 14 it says he caused their chariot wheels to wobble and come off meaning their structure unraveled as they pursued the people of god so i just want to pray like pastor kevin said the plots of the enemy and the structure of this organization would begin to wobble and unravel by the hand of the lord so father we just declare according to exodus 14 verse 25 that your hand would be extended to the middle east and specifically to afghanistan and that the enemy of your people god the very structure the organization their planning their communication let the chariot wheels begin to wobble now in the name of jesus let the chariot wheels begin to wobble and come off in the name of jesus may the very foundation they are using to pursue and destroy your people may it begin to wobble and come off may their structure unravel god may they lose their force may they lose the weapons of intimidation father only you can do this father it was a sovereign act of your hand so right now we call on yahweh the commander of heaven's armies to release angelic armies to afghanistan and the middle east lord to sabotage the plans of the enemy against your people in the name of jesus may your people rise up on eagle's wings father you are a shield unto us the glory and the lifter of our head right now be a shield may a shield and to the church of afghanistan may be a shield into the families in afghanistan be a shield from the fiery darts of the enemy father may that shield quench every weapon and arrow of the enemy in the name of jesus like a mother hen take your wings and place it over the church of afghanistan may they hide in the shadow of the almighty i declare over the pastors and the leaders that a thousand may fall on their side and ten thousand at their right hand but it will not come near their dwelling in the name of jesus may they rise up on eagle wings in the name of jesus and may the enemy that pursues them may his plans unravel in the name of jesus and we just declare it again let the chariot wheels come off of this assignment of the enemy and father we declare as you unravel these plans may your heart for the middle east spring forth and we declare a mighty will of revival will spring forth in the midst of persecution may the persecuted church arise with fire and with the holy ghost may signs wonders and miracles follow them and we declare not only will the enemy not prevail but that a harvest of souls will rise up in the middle east i hear you saying father that the middle east is in the middle of what you're doing the middle east is in the middle of what you're doing they are in the middle of the heartbeat of the father in the earth and i declare that awakening start right there let awakening start right there in the place where the enemy feels like he has a seat we declare you saw satan fall like lightning from heaven once and in the name of jesus principalities powers and strongholds will fall from their seat in that region again and we declare revival and awakening will spring forth with a bride on fire in the middle east in jesus name father fill them with the holy ghost i declare father that muslims will be filled with the holy spirit father in the name of jesus let a wave of the holy ghost come to the middle east let a move of the holy spirit come to the middle east and strengthen your people by the power of the holy ghost in the name of jesus father let your spirit reign why don't you just cry out with me for revival in the middle east father market like a bullseye barking like a target let him target the middle east right now with an outpouring of your spirit in jesus name [Music] [Applause] another way [Music] another way [Music] another way [Music] another i want them to continue to declare this wave of revival but i just heard the lord say that the enemy says he has a radical group of believers in the middle east we call them terrorists we call them radical but i just heard the lord saying they will not compare to the radical remnant i am raising up in the middle of the middle east i just hear the lord saying this wave of persecution is unearthing a radical group of believers in the name of jesus christ they love not their life unto death and they will be a radical voice for the gospel in the middle east the world is not worthy of them we will hear voices that the world is not worthy of because they have committed they're all to jesus christ and the radical terrorists will not compare to the passion of those who are full of the holy spirit and who vow their need to yeshua so in the name of jesus father let a radical ride surface let a radical bright surface in the middle east let a radical group of students and young people surface in afghanistan father who are not afraid of death they are not afraid of persecution lord they will not burn they will not drown they will not be overtaken but father like the three hebrew boys like shadrach meshach and abednego they will come out of the fire with a fourth man they will declare the glory of the name of jesus father let signs wonders and miracles break out from their hands and lord i declare a radical remnant is coming out of the middle east in the name of jesus [Music] [Music] has now begun it comes another way [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] is [Music] let your enemies be scattered oh god let your enemies be scattered right [Music] let me fly [Music] [Music] the breakdown we will no longer be silent we will no longer be silent we will stop praying we will stop singing we won't stop believing [Music] i just declare as afghanistan becomes an epicenter for revival as tori was lifting her voice in a roar i just heard the lord say call out to my daughters so right now i pray for the women in afghanistan and in this middle east region the daughter's father who have been silenced i declare the fire of the holy spirit comes upon a remnant of women now who will lift their voice in a roar for the kingdom father i declare strength upon the daughters strength upon the daughters of the kingdom father that as tory prophesies in song there's a strength of the holy spirit coming upon the women in the middle east father that you are giving them hope and strength you are giving them value and you are restoring their voice in the name of jesus i declare the muscle is being removed from the daughters in the middle east i declare the iron muscle of the enemy is being crushed off of the mouth of the bride the daughters in the middle east and i declare father is restoring their voice the holy spirit is restoring their voice and they will be a mouthpiece for glory unto yahweh i declare the voice of the daughters will be heard and freedom will be their song in the name of jesus freedom in christ shall be their song prophesy with me now in the name of jesus i hear the canings of heaven being released over the nations oh i cheered the cadence of heaven being released over the i hear nations cadence of heaven being released over the nations oh i hear the cadence of heaven being released over the nations christopher god rise up of god rise up oh god rise up of god rise up of god rise up oh god i'm just catching a vision in the spirit i just see an army of mothers that have shed tears in the middle east i hear them crying out for the freedom of their daughters and i hear the promise of the phone they're saying a generational blessing will be released over the daughters of this region there has been a cry that heaven has heard from interceding mothers in this region god says i will shift it for your children your prayers have been heard in heaven and he is sending an answer of freedom and breakthrough for your daughters in the name of jesus your prayers have been heard [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] so [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] i hear the lord saying my sons and daughters will prophesy in afghanistan not just for afghanistan but in that nation yeah that's what's been going on over the last number of years the lord's been raising up and developing a remnant a body they're there their church is there and i declare in the name of the lord that the spirit of god is going to begin to quicken and prophesy through his sons and daughters there whoa spirit of the lord we begin to pray now we begin to declare now we begin to see now by the holy spirit that you're moving even in afghanistan right now god and we declare to the principalities and powers of darkness you believe that you've won but we declare that what god is doing in the spirit what god is working for his glory is supernatural in that nation we pray in the name of jesus we pray in the name of jesus sons and daughters will prophesy sons and daughters will prophesy hallelujah [Applause] i want to read this just stay right there matt and tori and we're just going to go right back into that i want to read this and i weighed this i just waited for a moment because i don't want to read something and declare something to miss but in acts chapter 8 we give you glory god we give you glory we give you glory come on just just stay in that vein jackson just stay on those toms and matt just stay in that flow i want us to just stay right there there's a declaration in acts chapter eight here's what the bible says it said a great wave of persecution began that day and it swept over the church in jerusalem all the believers except the apostles were scattered throughout the regions of judea and samaria and some devout men came and buried stephen with great mourning saul was going from place to place to destroy the church he went from house to house listen to me he went from house to house dragging out men and women to throw them into prison but the believers who were scattered preached the good news about jesus everywhere they went philip went to a city called samaria and told the people about the messiah crowds listened intently to the message philip preached because they were eager to hear his words miraculous signs he performed many evil spirits were cast out they screamed as they left their victims and many had been paralyzed and lame were healed and there was great joy in that city lord i pray today that the church in afghanistan would see even their scattering not as an aimless relocation but as a strategic planting of the lord let the church share the message of the messiah and let cities in the mountains and regions in that area that have not even heard the gospel let them hear the good news in this moment and let great joy come as an invasion of jesus saturates that entire region father make the devil regret what he's doing on this day and turn this into the favor of the kingdom of god that the lamb would receive the reward of his suffering i pray it now that even the scattering let me tell you this i wrote a book on this i wrote a book on this chapter i i don't want to go too deep here but i i know we just have another minute left but i wrote a book on this chapter the word scatter there in acts chapter 8 and i didn't plan on saying all this for afghanistan but man my heart is so heavy today and it's not heavy bad it's it's just heavy because of what god can do and what god will do we'll just pray for the spirit of the lord to birth in the hearts of believers there courage and faith and strength strategy the word scattering there there's two kind of words used for scattering in the new testament one is like you throw ashes and you don't care where they land but then there's a scattering like a sower sow seed and he scatters land he scatters seed on particular places for the purpose of harvest that's the word used here in acts chapter eight when it says the believers were scattered they weren't thrown likes like ashes and it didn't matter where they landed they were sown like seed and the enemy thought his plan to destroy the church would destroy the church in that region but what happened is a massive harvest came and exploded in samaria judeas jerusalem and that entire area and here's what the last part of it said i know we're in a listen to me and i don't know how we get this word to our afghan family and believers i know we're in a season right now where there are threats and it looks absolutely horrific and we are interceding [Music] we're interceding for the lord to have mercy we're interceding for the lord and angels of heaven to protect we're interceding for resources to come in we're going to be giving resources we want to be a part of that but i want to tell you how this ends it does not end with the enemy on the throne it ends like this in verse 31 of acts chapter 9 the church then experienced peace throughout judea galilee and samaria and it got stronger as the believers lived in the fear of the lord and with the encouragement of the holy ghost listen to this the church grew in number it started out in fear of man and fear
