*******************

A NOTE FROM CHUCK PIERCE:

Below is a key, urgent prayer request initiated by Apostle Dutch Sheets. This prayer thrust will take you from Inauguration Day (January 20) to March 1. Remember, this is a year that we move from victory to victory! I will be sending you key insights that will help us develop not only a victory mindset in our own lives, but also for this nation. Use your 10 Day Prayer Focus (http://www.elijahlist.com/words/display_word.html
?ID=2783) to develop a victory mindset at this time.

Also, don’t forget to pray for Iraq, the troops there and the Iraqi national election at the end of this month (http://www.elijahlist.com/words/display_word.html
?ID=2781). If you need a guide to help you stay focused through March 1, there is a 40 day prayer focus on my website. This is called “Contending with your Enemy, Removing the Tempter’s Covering and Possessing Your Spoils” (www.glory-of-zion.org/outmail/3-22-04.htm).

Blessings as you strike the scales of justice,

Striking the Scales of Justice - 40 Days of Prayer Beginning with the Inauguration

A NATIONAL CALL TO PRAYER

Dear Intercessors,

At a recent meeting of prophets in Colorado Springs, convened by Peter Wagner, a consensus came that there needed to be a heightened level of intercession for the nation, especially the courts, over the next few days and weeks. This was then confirmed by a dream about Lou Engle and me, which I will share with you momentarily.

First, let me give you a little background information on what Lou Engle is doing. (You can go to his website at www.thecauseusa.com for a more detailed presentation of Lou's plans.) God has given Lou and his team of intercessors several dreams and prophetic words which indicate that he is to start a house of prayer in Washington, D.C. That is beginning this week, although Lou also did a several week prayer focus there leading up to the elections. His focus will be the courts, especially the overturning of Roe vs. Wade.

I am partnering with Lou in this effort as are Mike Bickle and several other leaders. I will be with Lou this Thursday night for a special meeting, at which time I will be helping to launch this new effort. The timing of that has to do with this prayer alert and the dream that was shared with Lou and me.


THE DREAM: STRIKING THE SCALES OF JUSTICE

Here are the primary details of the dream: Lou and I were in a building together; it was some sort of a banquet atmosphere and setting. Lou was talking to people around him about prayer and fasting, but he was, for the most part, ignored. I was talking to individuals and they were listening to me. Lou was growing frustrated that the people around him were not listening to his passion about praying and fasting but, rather, were just chattering and eating.

I handed him something that the person having the dream could not see and said, "Here Lou, if you will strike this, they will listen to you." I also handed him a conductor's wand with which to strike the instrument. Lou did this and the sound reverberated through the room and everyone began to pay close attention to him.

When he turned back around to me, what he was striking could be seen and it was the scales of justice. He then looked at me and said, "This crescendo will reach its fullness on March the first."


40 DAYS OF PRAYER BEGINNING WITH THE INAUGURATION

Here are some insights that we feel are significant from this dream. Obviously the scales of justice are confirmation that this is the issue we must focus on now.

Secondly, the fact that they had to be struck pictures intercession (the Hebrew word for intercession is paga, which means to "strike the mark").

Thirdly, the conductor's wand indicates agreement since the Greek word for agreement is sumphoneo, from which we get our word symphony. The fact that Lou and I were together, and I handed him these things, obviously indicates a need for our partnering.

The date, March 1, we believe is very significant. Though the number 40 was not in the dream, if you back up 40 days from March the first, it is this Thursday night, which is also the night that I was to speak for Lou in Washington, D.C. and help launch this new effort. And it is Inauguration Day.

We believe something is to be launched in the spirit this Thursday -- Inauguration Day. A massive effort of prayer and fasting for 40 days, which will culminate on February 28, and break through in the heavenlies causing a crescendo in the spirit by March 1. This week also is the week that Norma McCorvey (Roe in Roe vs. Wade) is re-filing her case with the Supreme Court in an effort to overturn abortion rights. We feel that this timing is significant also.

We also believe that the end of the 40 days on 2/28 is symbolic of Joel 2:28. You can read this passage yourself, but we believe this 40 day period is a Joel fast to raise up a Joel's army and will create a great breakthrough and outpouring of God's Spirit in the land.


AN ALL OUT ASSAULT ON THE ISSUE OF ABORTION AND THE COURTS

Please pass the word on this to all intercessors that you know. Please join us from this Thursday, January 20 through February 28 and let's strike in intercession the scales of justice and believe for breakthrough by March 1. Fast as the Lord leads you; special prayer meetings would be wonderful, night watches would be appropriate. This should be an all out assault on this issue of abortion and the courts. Let's strike the scales with agreement and believe for a crescendo by March 1.

God bless you,

"Praying for America"
How Your Prayers Can Change the Course of a Nation
by Dutch Sheets
$7.99 Book

America! A new day is upon us, and we will never be the same.

We have awakened to a new world and embarked on a new course -- filled with a renewed spirit of unity. But what does the future hold? Will we be led by our passions or led by our God?

More than ever, more of our citizens are praying to God for protection, for guidance, for wisdom, for His will to be done on Earth as it is in heaven. Dutch Sheets' plea that America return to its roots and become a country that trusts in God and fears no one but God Himself is as timely as it is timeless.

In Praying for America, this national prayer leader and best-selling author exhorts the Church to remain watchful -- to discern what God is saying to the Church and learn what His plans are for our families, our cities, and the land we love.

With the countries of the world behind us, we stand united, patriotic, and humbled as a nation, ready to confront our future. Our spirit will not be broken; we shall overcome. As we cry out to God for our future -- and the future of our children -- may God bless America once again!

God wants us to connect with the powerful and timeless things He has done in the past so that we can become empowered for the future. Dutch Sheets and William Ford III reveal why we must look to our biblical forefathers and pray for the renewal of the covenants God made with them. This synergistic effect of combining our prayers with the prayers of our ancestors moves us more powerfully toward His ultimate goals for ourselves, for our nation -- and for the entire world.

It is for all you whose heart desires to heal your nations and bring them back to God. History Makers will grip your heart and catapult you into making history rather than talking about it." - Cindy Jacobs, Author, The Voice of God, Generals of Intercession
