God Himself, must know that something is "up" if He wants this much prayer
cover for Oregon, Washington, the Great Northwest and the entire United
States of America. There is something He is about to do.
(A) From Steve Shultz, Elijah List and Oregon USSPN Coordinator:
Dear Intercessors, in Oregon, Washington, the Great Northwest,
and throughout the USA and the World,
This is going to be a bit unusual as this email is constructed to be
*specifically* for all of you --Those on Oregon, Washington, Great
Northwest, all National and ALL International Intercession lists, PLUS those
on the entire ELIJAH LIST (almost 80,000 of you)
www.elijahlist.com --- AND those of
you who want to join with us in prayer along with one or more of the many
intercession organizations listed below.
Right now, here in Oregon and Washington, we are preparing for an
UNPRECEDENTED time of prayer and intercession for the Great Northwest
Territory, which originally consisted of (especially Oregon and Washington)
the largest part of the Oregon Territories.
We are entering into a very crucial and serious time for this area of our
country.
Why do I say that, you may ask?
Serious dreams and visions by known prophets have called us to pray without
ceasing for this area of Oregon and Washington beginning in the early
Christmas Season and continuing into the following months.
-- Steve Shultz
(B) Letter by Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets about this "defining year"
for America
First, a word from Chuck Pierce (and Dutch Sheets) about their 50-state Tour
which also involves this CRUCIAL time in Oregon and Washington beginning
with the early Christmas Season 2003/2004
Note from Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets:
"The vision for the 50 State Tour is to declare the redemptive plan over
each state, and to call forth the resident anointing in the people of each
state.
"Dutch Sheets and I both have a heart for revival for our nation. Last
summer, I awakened one morning with an urgency to be in each one of the 50
states. The next time Dutch and I were ministering together, I brought this
up and he had felt the same urgency the week before. We have both sensed a
call from the Lord to travel to all 50 states to assist in gathering and
advancing the prayer army in each state.
"We are calling this 'The 50 State Tour.'
"The purpose of these meetings is to gather together God's leadership,
identify and draw together the intercessors of a state, and then align
strategic intercession with apostolic, prophetic, and pastoral leadership.
"We also feel that this is the defining year for this nation, so we know
that it is important to rally the Body of Christ in each state. God is
raising up an army. You are such an integral part of this army. Thus we know
that you are an integral part in bringing together the praying and
worshiping warriors in your state and releasing the prophetic declarations
that will change the atmosphere and course of your region.

(C) Why Are All the Prophets Coming to the Northwest These Days?
-- By Steve Shultz
It was only recently -- in the last few years -- that I had continually
heard it said, "Why are all the prophets seeming to stay in the East and in
the South of the USA?"---- And yet now, almost "suddenly," I receive
complaints (via the Elijah List) of, "Why are all the prophets coming only
to the Northwest and why don't they come to the east or the South, etc?"
Of course, prophets aren't only coming to the Northwest. However, it may
appear so, because so much attention by the Holy Spirit is focused here in
Oregon, Washington, and the Great Northwest.
But why?
Well, at the very least, we should say that at this time, and because of
this new attention by the Holy Spirit, we want to do our part to call the
Body of Christ, through the many and various local, national, and
international intercession ministries (and lists) to come together (as
opposed to acting separately) to answer this call to pray for the Great
Northwest -- especially as we enter the season we are coming into.
-- Steve Shultz
(D) A Map of the Original Oregon Territory which shockingly (to most
today), at one time included almost all of the West Coast and Northwest
Areas as we know it today.
For a map of the Oregon Territories during that time see:
http://www.washington.historylink.org/output.cfm?file_id=5446
This is startling to most. . . Oregon. . . or the "Oregon Trail" ended in
Oregon City, Oregon....but it also ended in Vancouver, WA---at the famous
Ft. Vancouver. We, Southwest Washington (including Ft. Vancouver) and the
State of Oregon, are inseparably tied.
Many do not know that Fort Vancouver, of Vancouver, WA in the mid 1800's,
was called "The New York of the West Coast," and it was the place most
travelers from the East Cost and Midwest wanted to end up.
While Fort Vancouver is only a tiny tourist spot today (just over the River
from Portland, Oregon, and also just over the Columbia River from Portland
International Airport), it was "THE place" to arrive at from the East. The
famous Dr. McLaughlin, while certainly not perfect, did not go along with
his British overseers to discourage Americans from migrating west and ending
up at Ft. Vancouver.
There is also history that suggests that McLaughlin was kinder to the
American Indian than most historical forts have a record of being.
============================================
Here is a Short Excerpt re: Fort Vancouver,
Part of the Original Oregon Territories:
============================================
"Fort Vancouver was the administrative headquarters and main supply depot
for the Hudson's Bay Company's fur trading operations in the immense
Columbia Department. Under the leadership of John McLaughlin, the fort
became the center of political, cultural, and commercial activities in the
PACIFIC NORTHWEST. When American immigrants arrived in Oregon Country during
the 1830s and 1840s, Fort Vancouver [headed by Dr. McLaughlin] provided them
with essential supplies to begin their new settlements." [to the
consternation of the British Government]
http://www.nps.gov/fova/
There is not-yet-revealed repentance overdue by all of those states who were
formerly part of the Oregon Territories --- in that it was these (later
named states), who originally used the name of OREGON (the end of the Oregon
Trail) as the name of their place of settling.
Therefore, in many, if not most of what we now know as California, Oregon,
Washington, Alaska, Idaho, and Montana--specific sins that were committed In
Oregon (through many of these above-named states) need to be REMITTED at
this time through our repentance HERE IN OREGON!
------------------
For a complete map of the original Oregon Territories, see:
http://www.washington.historylink.org/output.cfm?file_id=5446
You'll note that, "Oregon Country originally extended from Russian America
(Alaska) to California, as shown in this 1846 map" on that page (above link)
plus the, "Territories of Washington and Oregon included the future states
of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and a portion of Montana, as shown in this
1853 map" on the same link above.
-------------------
IT WOULD THEREFORE SEEM SILLY TO OVERLY DISTANCE OURSELVES FROM ALASKA,
WASHINGTON, IDAHO, MONTANA, CALIFORNIA, OR OREGON WHEN DOING
IDENTIFICATIONAL REPENTANCE--FOR AT ONE TIME, WE WERE ALL CALLED . . .
"OREGON!"
------- Steve Shultz
(E) Prayer Directives for Oregon and the "Oregon Territories" This Year
Steve Shultz, USSPN Oregon Coordinator:
(1) That we embrace the issues of all the surrounding states which used to
be called OREGON territories "as our own" such that our repentance will be
more complete.
(2) That we call forth the prophets into this/these geographical areas of
the Oregon Territories and ask them to help us identify that which we need
repentance of and for.
(3) That the Court Systems be purified as never before
(4) That the Oregon and Washington, Christmas-time, 50-State Prayer events
in Oregon and Washington will "bear much fruit" to protect our states.
(5) That the entire West Coast and Northwest Areas, formerly known as the
Oregon Territories will be free from Terrorist Attacks (as long as we do
what God calls us to do)
(6) That Native Tribes, which have been cursed by the "White man," and
any/all immigrants, would be blessed and restored in the spiritual realm.
And spiritually speaking, that their "land of inheritance" would be returned
to them.
(7) That all intercessors and intercession organizations, regardless of
their name, would begin to work more closely with one another and with the
apostles and prophets as they have paved much of the way for all of this to
happen.
(8) Oregon's "Death with Dignity" Law now takes pride that only 38 people
chose to have their doctors help them die this year. Read this with
amazement . . .
---------------------------------------------
Oregon Death with Dignity Act: fifth year report--from Oregon State,
March 5, 2003
From:
http://www.dhs.state.or.us/news/2003news/2003-0305.html
(this below is from an Oregon State government report--see above link) . .
.
"Thirty-eight persons used legal physician-assisted suicide in 2002,
compared with 21 who did so in 2001, according to the fifth annual report of
Oregon's experience with the Death With Dignity Act.
"The report, released today by the Oregon Department of Human Services
(DHS), contains demographics and characteristics of those who took lethal
prescriptions last year. It also examines Oregon's experience since 1998,
when the Death with Dignity Act went into effect. Findings are published in
tomorrow's New England Journal of Medicine.
"Last year more people used the law, but most of the other findings are
consistent with those of previous years," said Mel Kohn, M.D., state
epidemiologist. "Although there was an increase from previous years, the
number of deaths in 2002 was 0.1 percent of the total Oregon deaths for the
year. Once again, the majority of participants were older, well educated and
had cancer. As before, the primary reasons patients cited for choosing
physician-assisted suicide were concerns about losing autonomy, a decreasing
ability to participate in activities that make life enjoyable, and losing
control of bodily functions."
-- End of State Government quote From:
http://www.dhs.state.or.us/news/2003news/2003-0305.html saying only 38
people chose to have physician-assisted suicides in 2002, up only 17 deaths
perpetrated by personal physicians in Oregon in just one year! In other
words, doctors helped ONLY 17 more patients take their lives in 2002 than
they help do so in 2001. If one does not expect this trend to continue to
rise yearly, they haven't read the Word of God about the Love of many
growing cold in the last days.-- Steve Shultz
===================================
In Addition, Bonnie and Lon Mabon have sent in the following
prayer directives regarding Oregon (sent to me per my request) --Steve
Shultz:
===================================
Greetings [From Bonnie and Lon Mabon] in the name of our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ! Our website is under construction at this time, but people
can click on: mailto:ltm@cleanweb.net
or send an email to: ltm@cleanweb.net
to contact us.
Bonnie and Lon Mabon, from a cultural viewpoint:
1. The most important area of spiritual warfare is in the Judiciary [in
Oregon]. There is massive corruption in the Oregon courts. Satan's hold over
the courts and the whole institution of law needs to be broken.
Those few judges who may at some point have given their lives to the Lord,
and any lawyers who, likewise, acknowledge God's authority, must also
receive boldness from the Lord to proclaim the righteousness and justice of
the jurisdiction of the one true Judge. If we, as a state and nation, do not
declare and establish the jurisdiction of the authority of Christ over the
courts, we will not prevail in any other area in our culture.
2. Those whom God has placed in authority in Church and State must be
infused with boldness to proclaim His Covenant and Lordship. They must
challenge the growing darkness in our culture, declaring and establishing
Christ's authority -- even over government.
Spiritual needs in the Body of Christ
1. That we, God's "special" people, would repent of our luke-warmness and
allow God through His Spirit to awaken our hearts to a greater commitment,
both to the Body of Christ and the Kingdom of God and His purposes.
2. That God's Spiritual leaders in Oregon would find the sanctifying power
of God in the deepest part of their own hearts and lives, so they could
bring the Body to that same point, for the work of the ministry in these
last days, to bring God the most glory possible.
========================================
Aglow input on Oregon Prayer Directives
========================================
We received the following input from Aglow re: Oregon in our last Oregon report that is clearly true to this day
Prayer Directives for Oregon
by Patrice Montgomery
Oregon Aglow Prayer Coordinator
In March 2000, Oregon Aglow International did a random study of the
strongholds and prayer needs of the state. Our theme was "Uniting Oregon in
Prayer that they all may be one" from John 17:21.
It is believed that the name "Oregon" comes from the French word "ouragan"
or "storm." In 1775 Bruno Hezeta discovered the mouth of the Columbia River.
All early discoverers complained of both the strange and rough weather with
thick fog. From the early 1800's on, there appeared to be confusion about
both the climate and the identification of the territory name and
boundaries. When the Spanish, Russian, and British entered into rivalry over
the sea otter pelt trade, conflict was experienced between England and Spain
at Nootka Sound.
When settlers poured into Oregon, divisiveness entered into the boundary and
ownership issues of mapping and claiming land. The missionaries came in 1830
and there was much disagreement on how to save the Indians and how to farm.
Misconceptions and contradictions followed, along with a presumptuous
tendency to "apply descriptions of parts of the region as if it were the
whole."
Therefore much misleading information was published. In the fertile
Willamette Valley, which Indians named "Valley of sickness," smallpox,
tuberculosis and other sicknesses brought infirmity and death. Much disease,
depression, broken covenants and treaties were a severe problem. Indians
were very mistreated and misunderstood. Principal battles were fought in the
Klamath mountains, and in Eastern Oregon, with massacres such as the Cayuse
War of 1848.
Financial difficulties and rivalry have marked commerce since 1900. The
greatest population growth took place in 1930 with a gain of 131% in 30
years. Land fraud became a problem on transfers of property from public
domain to private settlement.
The highlighted words above are still the problems that need prayer in
Oregon. Only around 10% of the population are considered Christians. Many
church splits. Much alcoholism, drug abuse, domestic violence, teen
pregnancy, teen suicide, and unemployment. World views and allegiances are
New Age, humanism, cults. Witchcraft, pride, depression, apathy,
independence, a religious spirit, prejudice and injustice are still
problems.
Pray that the enemy strongholds over our state will be broken, and that the
sovereign purposes of God will be fulfilled for all our cities and
communities. Pray that God's people will unite in continuous and sustained
prayer efforts until revival sweeps Oregon.
Love and blessings,
Patrice Montgomery,
Oregon Aglow Prayer Coordinator for 2002
