One Year Bible Intercessors...

1 One Year Bible Intercessors... In times of extreme crisis, we must remember to keep our eyes on The One Who Can Help...David cried out to his Lord in all phases of his life, as a shepherd boy, a psalmist and as king. He never gave up looking to His Lord God and Savior for help in times of need. In these days of constant turmoil and upheaval, we need to remember David's divinely inspired words in Psalm 11: "If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?" ("Faith in the Lord's Righteousness" Psalm 11:3 NKJV) We must follow David's example and Cry Out To God For His Help. WE MUST PRAY. Thank You for Your Prayers for His Persecuted Church

2 An update from the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) reports that Meriam Ibrahim and her American husband and children have taken refuge in the U.S. Embassy in Sudan. Meriam, who was sentenced to flogging and death for her Christian faith, is finally out of Sudanese custody after Sudan's secret police snatched them from the arms of American diplomats, an episode that humiliated the U.S. State Department and placed her and her American family in grave danger. The State Department must get its act together. The State Department must now escort Meriam home to America. Sign our petition and read our update: Sign the Petition: Bring Meriam Home. Read Our Analysis: Safe in the Embassy, but Still Not Free. And thank you for continuing to pray for the release of those saints we featured last week, Pastor Saeed Abedini, Robert Levinson, Amir Hekmati, and for the three Israeli teenagers abducted two weeks ago...eyal, Gilad and Naftali. Meriam and her family were also included and the Lord chose to bring her and her two children out of prison. We pray she will return home to the United States, very soon! In Jesus' Name we pray for everyone who is a cherished member of the Lord's Persecuted Church. Amen. Thank You For Your Love and Prayers for America...

We pray for Your seeds of righteousness, planted by our forefathers, to be brought to a great harvest in our country...

4 We ask today, that You, our gracious Lord, and Mighty and Loving Founding Father, will divinely cause repentance to begin in American hearts so that our nation can have an everlasting faith and abiding walk with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We ask for Your Blessings to be upon American churches and ministries creating awareness of our nation's righteous heritage and calling Americans to pray. We ask that many more Americans be saved unto Jesus. And we pray in Jesus' Mighty Name for these spoken and unspoken needs for America. Thank You for asking Your Holy Spirit to intercede for us. Amen. "Blessed in the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance." ("The Sovereignty of the Lord in Creation and History" Psalm 33:12 NKJV) We continue to pray the Lord's Prayer each week for His Blessings to be upon our nation, Israel and the whole world that He has created...

5 Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed by Thy Name. Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power and the Glory forever and ever. Amen. Prayers for Israel and for the Middle East...

6 YHVH's Temple Mount with mosques hidden by clouds... "Give us help from trouble, for the help of man is useless. Through God we will do valiantly, for it is He who shall tread down our enemies." ("Assurance of God's Victory Over Enemies" A Psalm of David. Psalm 108:12-13 NKJV) Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continues it's effort,"operation Brother's Keeper," to locate the three abducted yeshiva boys who have been missing for more than two weeks... The missing yeshiva boys: Eyal Yifrah, Gilad Sha'ar, Naftali Frenkel Courtesy: the families

7 IDF Chief General Benny Gantz maintains that the young men are still alive and that the monumental search for them will continue... Thank you for continuing to pray for Eyal, Gilad and Naftali, the three Israeli Yeshiva students, kidnapped over two weeks ago... May YHVH help the Israeli Defense Forces find and release these young men through "Operation Brother's Keeper." We ask YHVH to please bring great awareness to this week's Shabbat Torah Portion that is called Balak, or "The Destroyer." Balak was the King of Moab who asked Balaam to curse Israel so that they would be destroyed... And, the Arab month of Ramadan began this weekend at sundown on Friday and continues through July 28th...

8 We pray for YHVH to be glorified as Ramadan begins during the time of the crescent moon, at sundown, Friday, June 27th and extends through sundown Monday, July 28th. We pray for peace in the Middle East, in Israel and throughout the world that YHVH had created... Ramadan is considered a sacred arab month of daylong fasting and prayer. Muslims seek their god, allah, and his guidance during this annual religious observance. It's sole purpose is to please allah and seek his mercy. Muslims give to the needy during this time. The name "Ramadan" in Arabic means scorching heat and dryness, especially for the earth... Note: For more Ramadan prayer information and prayer booklets please go to these excellent sources: or As the hate-filled spirit of Anti-Semitism is on the rise worldwide, Thank You again for praying for Israel and for her people. Please ask YHVH how to pray for the "Apple of His Eye," Eretz Yisrael. In Yeshua's Name we pray for these known requests for Israel, and for those needs known only to YHVH. Amen and Amen.

9 "But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory and the One who lifts up my head. I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. Salvation belongs to the Lord. Your Blessing is upon Your people. Selah."

11 He is able to aid those who are tempted." ("Bringing Many Sons to Glory" Hebrews 2:17-18 NKJV) ****** For Those New to Our One Year Bible and Readings...Welcome! For our faithful intercessors and readers, we have developed a "One Year Bible and Torah Readings Letter," with an attached amplified weekly Sunday-Saturday "One Year Bible" Word document that includes One Year Bible Scripture references, as well as their chapter headings. Our history is that to learn more about our Judeo-Christian roots, over four years ago, we added into the existing "One Year Bible" weekly letter, the traditional Shabbat Torah/Old Testament and Haftarah/Prophets Readings read by observant Jews worldwide. We have also included the Brit Chadashah or New Testament Readings read by Messianic Jews. This easy-to-use format gives us a "heads-up" for daily Scripture readings, and tells us what the weekly Shabbat Torah readings are for Friday and Saturday. We can read and pray through the Bible and Torah readings, and compare their teachings to world, national, state and local headlines; as well as to situations in our daily personal and business lives! Again, attached to this letter is this week's "Word" document of One Year Bible Readings amplified with chapter headings. As the Lord leads, I have highlighted key verses in purple...his color of royalty. God Is So Good!

12 In closing, I pray that you will be blessed as you read God's Word in His "Amplified One Year Bible" and in His Messianic Torah, Haftarah/Prophets and Brit Chadashah/New Testament Readings. I pray that our combined prayers, covering America, Israel and the Whole World that He has Created, will help establish God's Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven! I ask that God will richly bless all who read and pray with God's Word. I ask God to bless the faithful who pray for America, Israel and the Whole World that He has Created, in the Day and Night Watches! And I pray, that God will bless all who follow His Leading and His Word... May many be added to His flock daily, for His Glory, until Jesus Returns! In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen.
