1 Spirit of Caleb Prayer Strategy This prophetic word is ours to claim and walk out together, and my prayer is that everyone of you who loves what Papa is doing in our midst and through our ministry will join me in focusing on this between now and September. Let the show you how to pray through the scriptures below. The declarations below are suggestions, feel free to add or subtract as you are led. If the Lord gives you additional revelation, please share! NUM 13:30 Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, "We should by all means go up and take possession of it, for we will surely overcome it." Declare that we are taking possession of all that Papa has given us, and we will overcome all opposition! NUM 14:8 "If the Lord is pleased with us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us -- a land which flows with milk and honey. NUM 14:9 "Only do not rebel against the Lord; and do not fear the people of the land, for they will be our prey. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them." Thank the Lord that He is pleased with us, and declare that He will bring us into a place of true abundance, and that every enemy is defeated and subject to our authority in Christ. NUM 14:24 "But My servant Caleb, because he has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land which he entered, and his descendants shall take possession of it. Thank the Lord that we have been given a different spirit, and declare that we highly value following Jesus fully and becoming more and more like Him. JOS 14:9 "So Moses swore on that day, saying, 'Surely the land on which your foot has trodden will be an inheritance to you and to your children forever, because you have followed the Lord my God fully.' Declare that we are receiving an inheritance that will empower generations after us to know the Lord and live freely in His Kingdom. JOS 15:13 Now he gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion among the sons of Judah, according to the command of the Lord to Joshua, namely, Kiriath-arba, Arba being the father of Anak (that is, Hebron). Hebron = association or league, i.e. a place where a team functions Declare that we have been given a place in the Kingdom where we are coming together to learn how to live as family and function as a team.

2 JOS 15:14 Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak: Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the children of Anak. Drove out = to take possession of, to occupy, a place. This process requires that current occupants be expelled and their goods plundered, so there is freedom to do what the Lord desires. This is a spiritual maneuver that results in a natural or temporal outcome. Anak = long-necked or strong-necked, i.e. pride. PRO 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before stumbling. JAM 4:6 But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, "God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble." PRO 12:15 The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But a wise man is he who listens to counsel. PRO 14:12 There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. Declare that we are destroying every stronghold of pride in us, and building up each other in the new nature of Christ in us. Sheshai = noble 1. distinguished by rank or title. 2. pertaining to persons so distinguished. 3. of, belonging to, or constituting a hereditary class that has special social or political status in a country or state; of or pertaining to the aristocracy. MAR 10:42 Calling them to Himself, Jesus said to them, "You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great men exercise authority over them. MAR 10:43 "But it is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant; MAR 10:44 and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be slave of all. MAR 10:45 "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many." ROM 12:3 For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith. ROM 12:4 For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, ROM 12:5 so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. PHI 2:3 Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; PHI 2:4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. PHI 2:5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, PHI 2:6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,

3 PHI 2:7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. PHI 2:8 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Declare that we reject every expression of hierarchy, rank, title, or postion, and freely choose to come under people to serve and empower them. Ahiman = my brother is a gift MAT 10:37 "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. LUK 8:19 And His mother and brothers came to Him, and they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd. LUK 8:20 And it was reported to Him, "Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, wishing to see You." LUK 8:21 But He answered and said to them, "My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it." LUK 14:26 "If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple. MAR 10:28 Peter began to say to Him, "Behold, we have left everything and followed You." MAR 10:29 Jesus said, "Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel's sake, MAR 10:30 but that he will receive a hundred times as much now in the present age, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions; and in the age to come, eternal life. EPH 3:14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, EPH 3:15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, Declare that we will allow the Lord to establish His priorities for our relationships with others. We choose to connect with each other and become the family He has ordained for us to be. We will not allow anyone to pressure or manipulate us to do what they want because of their relationship with us. Talmai = abounding in furrows, plowman ECC 4:9 Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. ECC 4:10 For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up. ECC 4:11 Furthermore, if two lie down together they keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? ECC 4:12 And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart. MAR 6:7 And He summoned the twelve and began to send them out in pairs, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits;

4 LUK 10:1 Now after this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them in pairs ahead of Him to every city and place where He Himself was going to come. LUK 10:38 Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. LUK 10:39 She had a sister called Mary, who was seated at the Lord's feet, listening to His word. LUK 10:40 But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me." LUK 10:41 But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; LUK 10:42 but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her." Declare that we reject and renounce all independent spirit and isolation. As members of one another, we recognize that we are incomplete withour each other, so we will stay connected with those Papa has given us, and work together. We are those who choose to spend time with Jesus more than any task, work, function, or self-imposed responsibility. The second possession: JOS 15:15 Then he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir; now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher. JOS 15:16 And Caleb said, "The one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give him Achsah my daughter as a wife." JOS 15:17 Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, captured it; so he gave him Achsah his daughter as a wife. Othniel = lion of God. Represents our royalty, and our powerful anointing to pursue and obtain the following: Debir = inmost recess (holy of holies in the temple), oracle. A sanctuary where the voice of the Lord is heard, and from which His prophetic word is proclaimed Kiriath-sepher = city of books. A place where people go to learn or be trained. Declare that we are establishing a place where Papa s kids can find intimacy with Him, hear His voice, and become carriers of His Presence and His Word. We are establshing a place where His kids will learn who they are in Christ, get trained in what they are created to do, and released to be world-changers for His glory. Blessing our sons & daughters (the next generations): JOS 15:18 It came about that when she came to him, she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. So she alighted from the donkey, and Caleb said to her, "What do you want?" JOS 15:19 Then she said, "Give me a blessing; since you have given me the land of the Negev, give me also springs of water." So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

5 Declare that we are raising up spiritual mothers and fathers who give their children the spiritual resources they need to grow and succeed a doubleportion abundance. Honoring the Presence and His Priesthood: JOS 21:9 They gave these cities which are here mentioned by name from the tribe of the sons of Judah and from the tribe of the sons of Simeon; JOS 21:10 and they were for the sons of Aaron, one of the families of the Kohathites, of the sons of Levi, for the lot was theirs first. JOS 21:11 Thus they gave them Kiriath-arba, Arba being the father of Anak (that is, Hebron), in the hill country of Judah, with its surrounding pasture lands. JOS 21:12 But the fields of the city and its villages they gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as his possession. JOS 21:13 So to the sons of Aaron the priest they gave Hebron, the city of refuge for the manslayer, with its pasture lands, and Libnah with its pasture lands, Declare that we will always value His presence and ministering to Him above any other ministry function. Our prophetic promise for a confident future and destiny: JOS 21:43 So the Lord gave Israel all the land which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they possessed it and lived in it. JOS 21:44 And the Lord gave them rest on every side, according to all that He had sworn to their fathers, and no one of all their enemies stood before them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hand. JOS 21:45 Not one of the good promises which the Lord had made to the house of Israel failed; all came to pass. Lord God You are giving us all You have promised us, and we will possess and live in it. You will give us rest on every side because all our enemies have been overcome. Every promise You have made to us shall come to pass!
