Note from Nancy

Dear Friends & Intercessors,

First of all, Henry, myself and PTH want to thank you with the deepest appreciation for all the love and prayer support during this season of the loss of our Granddaughter and friend to many, Crystelle.  Your prayers and encouraging words have been a constant strength to us and we felt we were being carried through!  Thank you all very much!

Secondly, I want to address the up and coming PTH Conference in Anchorage, Alaska  (April 23rd.-25th).    We also have our annual pre-conference prayer gathering and introduction evening for workshop speakers, leaders, helpers, and all the intercessors who want to come along side to pray in God’s Kingdom purposes, (Wed., April 22nd / 6:00 PM; Trinity Presbyterian Church, 12310 Lorraine St, Anchorage, AK 99516 – approx. 2 miles up Huffman Rd.).

Next, Delta Junction, Alaska.  On Friday,  May 1st – 3rd (evenings & Sun. morning), PTH will be ministering at Delta Christian Center.  We welcome you to attend, and we especially invite and welcome all the intercession God puts on your hearts for these events – His Kingdom work!  “His will be done on earth as it is in heaven!”   (Matt. 6)    PTL

In my preparation for the conference(s), I want to share the parable that God put on my heart from Matt. 22:1-10; The Wedding Banquet.   It is an excellent reminder to us in this hour …
Kingdom of Heaven is like:
– A certain king arranged a wedding banquet for his son.
– And sent out servants to call those who were invited to the wedding
– Yet,  they were not willing to come
– So, the King decided to persuade the guests: He sent out his servants again, telling them the feast has been prepared –  oxen, fatted cattle, all things are ready for the wedding banquet.
Still,  they made light of it and continued in their ways, one to his farm, another to his business … some just married, some bought new toys, some just wanted to be with friends, some were tired, some just too tired and didn’t really care!  Some even seized his servants, treated them spitefully, and killed them.
– The King heard about this and he was furious and sent out His armies, destroyed those murders, and burned up their city.
– Again, the King told His servants, “the wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy.  Therefore, go into the highways, and as many as you can find, invite them to the wedding banquet.
…So the servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all they found, both bad and good.  And the wedding hall was filled with guests.

This last weekend I shared this parable at a prayer meeting and they took me seriously.  and went out and started inviting.  Let me share one of the things that happened:  
They were at the doors of a building,  handing out free invitations in celebration of Good News – The Conference.  However, they were met by security and accused of soliciting and asked to leave.  It was suggested they go to the bus stop!   Still, they would be contacted Monday by someone for their offense.

Yes, the laws and rules are in place for a reason, but spiritually speaking, what was happening is there was a threatening to the dark side of the kingdom…just know that God is going to honor that effort…but we have to prepare ourself…Both the good and the bad will be attending! 

We are asking for intensified prayer and those willing to go out and invite … Come to this wedding feast, a banqueting table of 12 workshop speakers, and the message the Lord has given to illuminate teachings from His Word … Imparting .. Laying hands on those ready to receive in the heart and be activating … A Holy Spirit Encounter that is lasting and life-changing!

The evening sessions you will be able to feast on Holy Worship and Praise, more illumination of the Word, and timely prophetic messages for this hour.   And, as I love to quote Apostle Paul,  (Romans 1:11)  “I long to lay hands on you that I may impart some spiritual gift so that you may be established”.
Impart: to give, share, impart, distribute, grant).  
Establish … Ps. 90:17 “Yes, let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands; Yes, establish the work of our hands.” (Work: acts of mercy and salvation).

In March, we were invited back to Canada after 15 years.  I was told of a prophecy – that a women from Alaska had come and prayed in that area and several Reservations, (15 years ago).   The word given, said to call her back, there will be a fresh wind of revival stirred up!  I received a phone called last October and invited to return.  I was amazed and blessed at those that stood up and shared what was said and spoken over them 15 years ago.  Since that time, much came to pass and they were so thankful for obedience.   The people were so ready for teaching, prayer and hope which sparked into a flame.   Sarah Tarter traveled with me and her gifts were so powerful:  From prayer, to the worship leader – for the conference as well as the three meetings we did at the reservations. We were also invited to share the word and lead worship in church ministers and did a street ministry establish 16 years ago; mostly men.   Thank you cards are still coming in!  We don’t boast of ourselves, but Praise be to God that He used us and all your faithful prayers.  We totally acknowledge all our faithful supporters –   the ministry could not have been so successful for His Kingdom without  all of you lifting us up in His work!   We pray for much fruit to come!   Amen!
Please keep it up – it truly makes a difference!

In closing, again, I want to personally thank all of you for your support for PTH  Ministry and our personal loss.  You have been an amazing continued support for the entire Georgia and S.C. ministries in Jan. and Feb.   Please know you are deeply valued and I honor and bless you.

Love and Prayers,

Nancy and the Team of PTH

Note from Liz: Anchorage PTH Conference!

April 8, 2015

Dear Point to Hope Family,
Greetings from the city of Anchorage!  I am excited to update you on the upcoming PTH Anchorage Holy Spirit Encounter Conference (April 23-25, 2015).
Our theme for 2015 is “War Cry: God’s Redemptive Rest!” This theme has already impacted many, with great praise and glory given to God as a result.  The testimonies have been incredible, to say the least.
Nancy’s last ministry trip was to Fort St. John, British Columbia, Canada. She and Sarah Tarter had great favor wherever they went.  God used them mightily.  Many lives were changed because of the wonderful work of the Holy Spirit flowing through obedient vessels. Nancy not only spoke at a three day conference but she also ministered in three area Indian Reserves.  We have received many amazing testimonies of her labor of love among our Canadian brothers and sisters.
God is raising his war cry through his army of willing volunteers!  The transformation that we allow the Holy Spirit to do within has an incredible effect in the world.  The peace of the Holy Spirit is unrivaled and empowers us to trust Him in all things. When we walk in the promises of God it causes His glory to shine in ever greater measure through our lives and in our communities.  We encourage all who are able to come and fellowship with us as we gather to worship the Lord and hear His word for this season.
Leading up to the conference we covet your prayers. Many are gathering for this conference from across Alaska and other parts of the country.  Our desire is that all who attend will have an intimate Encounter with the Holy Spirit.  We ask that you pray for the safe travels of those attending. We also ask that you pray for Nancy and the ministry team to be filled and energized by the Spirit to pour out His work for His people.  Also, please continue praying for the Haney family as they go through the grieving process.
We thank you so much for your prayers and partnering alongside Point to Hope. This is an exciting time as we, all of us, march shoulder-to-shoulder proclaiming the Lord’s War Cry!
Joshua 6:16 “…Shout! For the LORD has given you the city.”
Psalms 44:3-7 “For by their own sword they did not possess the land, And their own arm did not save them, But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence, For You favored them. You are my King, O God; Command victories for Jacob.”

In His love,
Liz Stinson
Assistant Director, Anchorage

Thank you & Canada … Now is the time!

March 4, 2015

Dear Point To Hope Friends,

On behalf of the PTH team, I want to extend a sincere “Thank You” for you prayer coverage over the ministry in Georgia and South Carolina (Jan / Feb.)  Nancy and the team is now back in Alaska with awesome, faith-building testimonies of the power of the Lord.

Nancy had several individuals come back to her with prophesies they had received from past PTH ministries and shared how the Lord fulfilled every word spoken over them:  Personal healings, family prodigal (s) returning home, families back on the straight and narrow path.  Part of the message the Lord gave Nancy was to release the Lord’s Favor over the people.  Wow!  All I can say is there was much evidence of God’s favor:  simple to profound.  Favor in restaurants – being told it’s closed and no way a large group will be served … they were served and with much favor;  favor in car rentals – upon arriving to return a car “FULL” of luggage, the car rental attendant actually chased down the customer who had gone to retrieve a luggage cart(s), and offered to drive them right to their airline – FAVOR!  Report of favor at work, home, etc.  God’s Favor – His idea!

Nancy said she could just sense God’s power was moving in a new way!  God’s Redemptive Rest (this year’s PTH conference theme) is proving to be exceedingly abundant!  Not necessarily easy circumstances, per se, yet God’s Rest has been evident in so many testimonies.  Many were so very encouraged by the message and literally felt they had a new lease on life, many “ears to hear” – wide opened to what God had for them.

Again, thank you for your faithful prayer coverage over the team.  They experienced great traveling mercies, provision for God’s plans, and all were and are healthy!

NOW:  Canada

On Friday, Nancy and myself (Sarah) will be traveling from Alaska to Fort St. Johns, BC.  Nancy has been invited to minister in churches, hold prayer meetings, a 3 day conference, and travel into 3 surrounding villages (8 days).  The Lord has given Nancy words through the years regarding Canada, and He is saying NOW is the time to put the soles of feet to the land once again.

Please be in prayer for Canada … our neighbors!   “Love our neighbors as ourselves.”  🙂   We can’t thank you enough for the prayers!  A ministry without prayer is like a car without fuel!  Just doesn’t run!

If you get scriptures, words, visions / dreams, please do not hesitate to e-mail  (see website for event details and contact information.  We are grateful for your insight.

Sincerely,
Sarah Tarter
PTH Prayer Facilitator

Urgent Prayer Request

Praying saints are being called out. Please lift up prayer for Blairsville, GA Conference. Storm coming in from the east. The weather is calling for snow, rain, and ice. Have faith and pray the Lords plans will be executed.  Pray the storm would be moved and calmed so God’s servant can deliver the message needed to come forth.

Thank you all for your prayers.

 

Mark 4:35-41 New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Calms the Storm

35 That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.” 36 Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. 37 A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. 38 Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”

39 He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

40 He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”

41 They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

Holy Spirit Encounter” Conf. / Power of Prayer!

Dear PTH Friends,

“War Cry! God’s Redemptive Rest” is the theme for this year’s Holy Spirit Encounter conferences.  Years ago, the Lord gave Nancy the format for conferences and the format remains constant:  “Holy Spirit Encounter”!   There is no better teacher, counselor, helper, etc. than the Holy Spirit!  The power of the Holy Sprit!; The ONE whom brings understanding to God’s Word and makes it “alive and active.”  Several places in the bible give references to heaven and earth passing away, but never His Word.  Hence, transformation comes with an encounter with the Holy Spirit … and that remains a constant in Point To Hope Ministries.

I say that to remind you of this:  “War Cry!  God’s Redemptive Rest,” Holy Spirit Encounter conference is about to take place:

Keynote Speaker:  Nancy Haney

When:  
    Feb., 5th, 6th, & 7th (Thur – Sat); 7:00 PM
Where:
    Straight Paths Church Worship Center
    155 Maxim Drive, Westminster, SC 29693
Hosted by: Pastors Ford & Jean Grant

It is probably safe to say, no one would prefer to give “War Cry” but it is a biblical principal and there is a time for peace and a time for war!  It is necessary!  And the Lord is calling this year “War Cry!”  Yet, He is also making provision in the midst of war;  His perfect peace found in “God’s Redemptive Rest.”  

Thank you for your continued prayers during this season.  The memorial service for Crystelle (Nancy & Henry’s grand daughter) was a beautiful celebration of her young life.  Nancy is now back in the Georgia / South Carolina area to continue with the ministry schedule; and first on the schedule is the conference listed above.  The Lord has given Nancy a powerful message for this year’s theme and with the power of prayer,  He will strengthen her to continue to carry His message in all situations.

One of the key points the Lord has given Nancy in the war cry message is that when faced with hardships, trials, death, etc., He doesn’t necessarily remove the bite of the circumstance(s) but He does make provision for hope and healing; for living.  “The Lord said to Moses, ‘Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.’  So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived.” (Numbers 21: 8,9).  Please keep Nancy sheltered in prayer as she continues to deliver the message the Lord has given her for this season.  

See the website for ministry itinerary www.pointtohope.org .  Again, thank you for your faithful prayers on behave of PTH ministries and the families and loved ones of those touched by the life of Crystelle.

“For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations.” (Ps. 100:5)

Blessings to all,

Sincerely,
Sarah Tarter,
PTH Prayer Facilitator

A Time to Grieve

Please keep Nancy & Henry Haney, family and friends in prayer. On Wednesday their granddaughter passed away. Please be considerate of the families time with the Lord and each other. Thank you for all the prayers and support.

Letter from Nancy Haney: Holy Spirit Power – Agreement!

Nancy,GA

Dear Friends,

The Holy Spirit Encounter conference in Georgia this last week was a most powerful time with the Lord.  Lives were transformed, hearts healed, new revelation from Him and testimonies of greater commitment.
 
While we were involved at the conference, it was as though we were in a “corporate bubble” of the Holy Spirit’s sweet and convicting presence. We were enveloped in the anointing of the Holy Spirit with timely messages and workshops from the Word for 2015.  We were surrounded by the love of believers with the same language and heart.  It was a time of both corporate and individual enlightenment by the Spirit.  Truly a Holy Spirit Encounter!
 
The conference may be over, but not the illumination,  impartation and activation.   There were  both old and new relationships established in the Lord!  Most have returned home by now – “re-entry” time.  And this can be a challenge!  Many feel they are on their own.  In fact, sometimes, it seems satan meets us at the door.  We are back in the fray.  Just like soldiers,  we have come home from war.  We have been convicted unto righteousness.  Some of us won’t be accepted with what we have learned and how we have been transformed; even more, not honored for the renewed Spirit within us.  The battle for a soldier can be more demanding at home.  Some don’t understand what has happened to us.  This is where the enemy seems to have a “hey-day.”  And questions arise …”Have I really changed?  Am I really healed?  Do I really have favor?  Can it really be new beginnings?  Hope Unshakable?  I’m sure you could pose some questions in there, too.

Still, let me assure you!   We may think or feel we are alone, but as brothers and sisters in Christ remember His promise:  “The Lord NEVER leaves us nor forsakes us” (Heb 13:5,6 ).  So,  just as He has never left us, let us be diligent to be praying, communicating with others, and personally be in prayer to help us guard our hearts in Him!

I am exhorting all of us!  Be remembering each other and be lifting each other up in “Prayers of Agreement,”  in Jesus’ name.

Yes, this is a year of New Beginnings.  We can’t return to our old ways;  We shall cooperate willingly with the Spirit.  God has already caused a shift and we are encouraged to walk by His Word; The light unto our path (Ps 119:105).

Basically, the conference provided a platform for the Holy Spirit to teach us much!  Now is the time to press in and let God mature us and seal that great grace, revelation and illumination of His Word.

We will be challenged, tested, and affirmed in all that the Holy Spirit has equipped us with.  We must move forward as our minds have been transformed and renewed.  So it’s time to put into practice what we’ve learned.  We are not  just convinced, but convicted as was brought out by the Holy Spirit in the conference.  And so, our journey has started in “Sonship and Agreement,” Amen!

 
Lets us pray a prayer of agreement for all those who attended the War Cry! God’s Redemptive Rest Conference in Georgia last weekend.    Praying and declaring HIS Word:  Raise the hedge of protection (Job 1:9), declare the bulwark (Ps. 91:4), set the wall of fire about us (Zech. 2:5), asking God to give ministering angels charge as we walk through His assignments (Matt. 4:11).  Pray that we continue to walk under that corporate anointing of the protection of the Holy Spirit as we commune with Him (Jo 6:53-58).  The Lord promised an impartation to His favor.
 
We are still in Georgia as the ministry continues in Macon, then South Carolina and Northern Georgia.  We ask that you all would partner with us in prayer as we move forward in God’s will.
Your prayers are so appreciated!  Prayers for the intercessors, places we are going, open ears and hearts to receive HIM…for Lisa McDonald, Debbie Grimes, Ute Looney and myself, Nancy Haney!   Pray for the Host and Hostess to be blessed along the way (listed on website) …Thank you so much1

Please know you are held close to my heart and in my prayers!
May you be BLESSED BY GOD!

Love & Sincere Appreciation to All!
Nancy

It is a critical time to lift our intercession to make that hedge

Dear intercessors,

I have been with Nancy these last 2 weeks and witnessed how the Lord is using her to break ground and stir up the Holy Spirit in many Christians.  Many are sitting numb from the past few years of getting beaten up and challenged in their faith.  But many are also seeking Him for direction and inspiration to step up and continue the walk the Lord had them on.  They are preparing to give the War Cry and enter the battle with greater faith than they have had in the past.  Many are hungry and searching.  It is encouraging that there are more people coming to the conference from out of town this year than I have ever seen before.  People who are willing to make the investment in time and money to receive what the Lord is preparing for them.

 

Nancy brings a different message than most as she appeals to the mature Christians, some of whom may be floundering.  The call is to allow him to lift our heads so we can keep our eyes on Him and not be distracted from our purposes.  Yesterday she was used by God to break some more ground in the area of West Columbia, SC.  We went to get our hair done, but the lady had invited several people and Nancy testified for nearly 2 hours.  The 9 people there were stirred as new ground was broken.  It is an area with a lot of witchcraft and satan worship.  Do you think that stirred things up?

 

The word is out about Nancy, the mighty warrior for God.  She is no longer in stealth mode, but the enemy is aware of what she is doing and he is not happy.  She is now a target for the enemy.  So we need to reinforce the wall of protection around her and the whole PTH team that the enemy cannot penetrate, not even with little foxes.  You may have heard the strategy the Lord gave Nancy in Hawaii about how to pray for the wall, but I write it again to remind you:

 

1. Place a Hedge of protection — Job 1:9

2. Declare a Bulwark or wall — Ps 91:4

3. Set a Wall of Fire — Zech. 2:5

4. Ask for Ministering Angels — Mt. 4:11

5. Take communion daily — LEAVE NOTHING TO CHANCE — Mt. 14:22

 

It is a critical time to lift our intercession to make that hedge/wall/bulwark even thicker than it already is.  I know you are all faithful intercessors for Nancy, but I ask that you consider an even greater commitment to intercede for her and this coming ministry.

 

With much love and Many Blessings,

Debbie

Happy New Year: Prayer … Worship … & Fast!

New Zealand Embassy

January 2015

Dear PTH Friends,

Happy New Year!  Yes, that is a declaration … it will be a happy new year for those who stay in His redemptive rest … while at war.  Yes, the sun will rise on the evil and the good, and it will rain on the righteous and unrighteous (Matt. 5:45).  Regardless the weather or storms of circumstances we will be faced with …. “whatever war” …. we will have His rest & peace if we move with His Spirit.  

There is an exuberance about this year, yet there is also a weighty urgency to be ever so sensitive to the Holy Spirit and keeping one another hedged up with unceasing prayer.  As the Lord gave Nancy a word recently:  “Leave nothing to chance.”   To me that say …. “Leave nothing to chance!!!”

I love the ingredients found in Romans 12:12 … a no-fail recipe: “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”  The statement “Faithful in Prayer” in Greek is: proskarterountes.  If you are anything like me … proskarterountes is still like the expression “Greek to me!”  … but this is what “faithful in prayer” means:  “It is a present, continuous tense of a very strong word.  It implies persistence, perseverance and insistence.  The Bible recognizes that most of us will have a struggle, not only to keep in an attitude of prayer, but also to spend real time in prayer  We are exhorted to be diligent and faithful in prayer since it is our access to God for a life of spiritual intimacy and is the means by which God advances His kingdom.” (Life in the Spirit Study Bible, NIV, Zondervan/Word Study Ro. 12:12).

No doubt we all want the latter part of “faithful in prayer”:  access to God, spiritual intimacy, and advancing His kingdom.  Yet, we must also contend for it and generally we have to war for it.  It requires persistence, perseverance, and insistence … “real time” and diligence.  Yes, war has a cost … freedom is worth the battle!

Here is a reality:  Our enemy of war has little interest in our matters unless we are led by the Spirit, believing AND walking in the promises of the infallible word of God.  Think of Peter:  He wrote a second letter as a reminder to believers / friends (2 Peter 3:1).  The basic theme of 1 Peter is suffering for the cause of Christ;  2 Peter includes instructions to virtually the same group of believers regarding false teachers.  It is no secret the devil is the father of lies (John 8:44), and he has a specific job description: steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10).  Yet, Peter had to write a again … second letter to encourage and remind seasoned believers.  He even said in 2 Peter 1:12, “So I will always remind you of these things, even though you know them and are firmly established in the truth you now have.”  

To me this is a form of:  “Leave nothing to chance.”  Peter goes on to say in 2 Peter 2:1, “But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.”  And catch this:  …. “They will secretly introduce heresies….”  (Heresies – opinions, beliefs, free thinking, a religious or philosophical sect.)  

What does this have to do with 2015?  The enemy would love to wear us out … wear us down … keep us from God’s redemptive rest!  Peter recognized that even seasoned believers needed reminders to “be aware” because … guess what – false teachers are going to be SECRETLY introducing teaching(s) that do not completely line up with the Word of God.  These teachers are going to be in the churches … in conferences … in the writings, etc.   And it won’t be obvious!  They are not going to be announced as “false teachers”…. they are going to come “secretly.”  My guess is that some will even be advertised as “anointed teachers”, etc.  Here is my interpretation of “a gifted teacher / the anointing of teaching”:  It really boils down to the skill or ability of being able to take any concept, or any “belief” and break it down so all learners understand; making it believable and acceptable to all – right or wrong.  The difference is, what the Spirit behind the teaching?    Hence, we personally, regardless of our seasoning, must be in HIS WORD, eyes fixed on the Author and Finisher of our faith, led by the Spirit of the Living God.  Consider this:  If people of “more noble character” than other believers/followers of Paul found it necessary to examine the scriptures daily after listening to teachings from the great Apostle Paul, and in the synagogues – “the church” no doubt, then I believe we should take note! (Acts 17:11).  Simple reminders, like Peter gave believers because the false teachers / prophets are “among” us (2 Peter 2:1).  

Like I stated earlier, the enemy has no interest in our matters unless we are heading in the right direction and building the Kingdom of God.  Having said that, we, PTH ministries recognize we are about to engage in a war of greater depth.  Hence 2015 Theme: Raise the War Cry!  We have a great war weapon in the power of agreement!  Abraham Lincoln embraced it in his “House Divided Speech” (1858)… but God said it first in Mark 3:24,25).  “If a kingdom is divided agains itself, that kingdom cannot stand.  If a house is divided agains itself, that house cannot stand.”  We cannot be defeated when we agree on God’s Word.

On a personal level, lend yourself to “Be a David” – be very sensitive to allow God to search your heart.  Is there anything in your heart, home, influence, etc. that is not in agreement?  Let us be led by His Spirit to guide us so that we come into agreement so that when we go to war … continue in war, we hold the power of agreement … AND can rely on one another (Ecc. 4:9-12).

I know I included the below strategy in a recent PTH website post, but it is a clear prayer strategy the Lord gave Nancy for 2015; As we head into war:
1)  Place a Hedge of Protection: Start praying a hedge of protection (Job 1:9)
2)  Declare A Bulwark:  Bulwark is a wall of protection – pray it around yourself and others.  (Ps. 91:4)
3)  Set A Wall of Fire; Protection (Zech 2:5)
4)  ASK God: Ask for angels to attend to you; ministering angels
(Matt. 4:11) 
5)  Communion:  Do this in remembrance of ME:  take communion daily and leave nothing to chance (Mk 14:22, 23)

Please, if the Lord shows you anything: dreams / visions, scriptures, words, etc., I encourage you to e-mail them to myself and / or Nancy. … even if it doesn’t make sense to you or you may not have the interpretation.
 
Nancy is about to begin the itinerary schedule in Georgia and South Carolina (Jan.-Feb. – see website for details: www.pointtohope.org) The January GA conference is just around the corner.  Please target all areas of need for the conference:  workshop speakers, worship, traveling mercies, prayer shield, complete unity and agreement, sound / technical needs, housing, health, etc., etc., etc.  Your prayers for Point To Hope Ministries are so appreciated and I can’t emphasize enough, the need for prayer coverage for Nancy during this time of ministry.  The Lord has given her a powerful message for this year and we do not want to be found in war without being clothed in His Word.  Pray for supernatural physical and spiritual strength for Nancy and she brings forth the word!

Prayer Strategy:  
A) Faithful in Prayer (Rom. 12:12)
B) Worship ahead of the battle
    Worship War Strategy:  A few excepts from 2 Chronicles 20:
–  A vast army is coming against you (vs. 2)
–  Inquire of the Lord (vs. 3)
–  The people came together to seek help from the Lord; indeed, they came from every town to seek Him (vs. 4)
–  Declaration to the Lord:  “Power and might are in YOUR hand and no one can withstand YOU” (vs. 6)
–  Our eyes are upon YOU (vs. 12b)
–  For the battle is not yours, but God’s (vs.15)
–  Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you (vs. 17)
–  All the people fell down in worship before the Lord (vs.18)
–  Then (the people) stood up and praised the Lord, the God of Israel, with very loud voice (vs.19) … (notice it is not “voices” though it is many people …. let us stand as one voice – unity – agreement.
–  Have faith in the Lord your God and you will be upheld (vs. 20)
–  People appointed:  to sing to the Lord and to praise Him for the splendor of His holiness singing:  “Give thanks to the Lord, for His love endures forever” (vs 21)
–  As they began to sing and praise, the Lord set ambushes…. (vs. 22)
–  The fear of God came upon all the kingdoms of the countries when they heard how THE LORD FOUGHT AGAINST THE ENEMIES (vs. 29)

C) FAST:  However the Lord leads you … A FAST He has chosen for you:  “to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke (Is. 58:6)

Embassy Report:  Washington DC (12/28-30/14)

Below is just a quick note regarding the visit to various embassies in Washington DC.  As many of you know, when the Lord calls Nancy to a country, He first calls her to the embassy of the country in Washington DC.  We (Nancy and myself, Sarah) went to the below embassies, but the time/season of travel to these countries is still in the making.  

In the mean time, below you will find a few prayer directions for these countries and / or other details:

Israel:  
 Rev. 2:17 “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.”
pray for Israel to call upon the Lord and rely on His strength; His Spirit, His Word, His Son.
The Word would be a light unto Israel’s path:  Father, Son, & Holy Spirit – Godhead- 3 in 1.
—————————
China:
pray for their woundedness;
pray for healing from being war-torn
pray for “circumspective” view:  look from all angels
—————————
Philippines:
unity is key for this country:  Phil. 2:4 “not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interest of the other.”
pray for healing: mind, spirit, & heart: a revelation of Jesus and the Holy Spirit:  To Believe
pray for righteous leaders to rise up to care for their people
God wants to take the least and push them forward
Pray for healing – their confidence in the Lord would arise
—————————–
Australia:
they have taken some hard hits
God has been a shield over this country
they’ve held on through hard times
walking away from the embassy the Lord said:  “The book of Acts is about to break out in Australia.   New fashion of the Holy Spirit is going to demonstrate Himself.”
——————————
Iceland:
orderly
locked in place
Iceland is hidden but about to be exposed / known
————————–

Russia:
what has been a protection has been blown apart
be praying for the Christians in Russia:  there are good Christians, but they have had to be somewhat hidden.
lots of shattered glass:  the Lord said He would show the root of it …. it is a wreck / an accident about to take place

The Lord would like to take care of some necessary details that are already above the surface
