The following was taught and prayed through during our 9:30 a.m. family prayer time with Sue DeGroot

We are praying towards that Word that will pierce our family members’ hearts, to be saved from this perverse, crooked, wicked generation.

Acts 2:38-40 AMPC
And Peter answered them, Repent (change your views and purpose to accept the will of God in your inner selves instead of rejecting it) and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of and release from your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
39 For the promise [of the Holy Spirit] is to and for you and your children, and to and for all that are far away, [even] to and for as many as the Lord our God invites and bids to come to Himself.
40 And [Peter] solemnly and earnestly witnessed (testified) and admonished (exhorted) with much more continuous speaking and warned (reproved, advised, encouraged) them, saying, Be saved from this crooked (perverse, wicked, unjust) generation.

Isaiah 40:4
Every valley shall be exalted
And every mountain and hill brought low;
The crooked places shall be made [a]straight
And the rough places smooth;

Deuteronomy 32 -speaks of the characteristics of those in a perverse, crooked generation -foolish, unwise, no faith/counsel/understanding)
*Verse 18-My people perish because of lack of knowledge = they have let it go / forgotten
But those SEEDS that have been sown into them will not remain dormant or barren any longer.

1 Tim 2:1-4
Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

• Oh, we magnify the precious name of Jesus this morning. King of kings and Lord of lords. He’s the Great I Am. He’s the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. Ha! Ha! Ha! The same yesterday, today, and forever! The unchanging God! Ha! Ha! This is Your day Father, the day of the Lord. We say, “Days of the manifestation of the goodness of our God. Faithful and True, Just and Righteous is our God.” We declare “Jesus Christ reigns over this Nation—our Lord reigns from sea to sea! Father pour out Your Spirit upon this Nation this morning. Rain down, rain down—saturate the hearts of the people. A fresh wind, an outpouring upon Your Church. Father we pray for open doors for our spiritual leaders to bring godly influence to our government in the ways of righteousness, truth, and justice. Ha! Ha!
• Open doors for Pastor Ric in every level of government. That He may bring a word that will bring changes to our city, province, and to our Nation. Wisdom and discernment to know what has to be said, and when to say it. He will come with words of knowledge; he will flow in the gifts of the Spirit. They will know he has been sent by God, because when he speaks a thing, it’s a God thing, and it shall come to pass. We join with Pastor Ric and the vision You have shown him for this House. This will be a House without debt.
• We’re in the overflow! Ha! Ha! The goodness of God is being seen in our midst and those around shall see it. Father, it’s our time, it’s time for J Nest. It’s time for those visions to come to pass. It’s time for the manifestation of those prophetic words You have spoken over this House and I thank You. You are faithful to Your word. The voice of the mockers and the scoffers shall be silenced because You will be seen in our midst. Financial—it will be an exponential thing; beyond anything we have ever imagined. We’re breaking out in the finances. The Master has need of it. We say that property is earmarked for Eagles Nest, we declare it shall be prime real estate. No man shall stop this, no bylaw. For these things will be changed because God has ordered it as He sees fit.
• Father we ask You for wisdom for our government—from the Prime Minister’s office to city council; the mayors offices, and our judges. Discernment for these days, to make right decisions for the good of the people and the land, we ask this in Jesus’ name. And everyone who resists You Father, resists what is right and good—Father, take them out of that position. Place those in position who have ears to hear and are willing to do what the Spirit of God is telling them to do. Times of fulfillment for Canada! Times of fulfillment for Canada! Fulfillment for our youth! Yes, fulfillment for our youth coming into their place!
• Father we just call forth our harvest out of the young people—out of every walk of life, we call them forth, in the name of Jesus. We call forth the harvest for Eagles Nest—those ordained for this House and Pastor Ric as their shepherd. They come with an ear to hear and to do. They come with a desire to be planted and to grow. They make covenant with Pastor Ric. Father we ask You for a revival in St. Catharines. A revival in Canada. A revival in the nations of the earth. A revival of Your Word. The harvest hears and they respond because they hear truth. And we know Father God Your truth will set them free. The truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We cover the harvest under the blood of Jesus. We cover our Eagles Nest under the blood of Jesus. We cover our city and our Nation under the blood of Jesus. We thank You for preserving us Father.
• Father we lift up Israel this morning. Ha! Ha! Blow Holy Spirit, blow across the land. Blow Your breath into those dry bones—bring them to life. Father we say, “There’s a great harvest coming out of Israel as the labourers preach the Word—chains are being broken, religious thinking is being broken, confusion is being removed. Oh, the Word is clear—it’s not confusing. We thank You Father they’re grasping and hanging onto the Word, it’s becoming their anchor. A revival in the land. An awakening in the land. We say, “Every evil plan from the enemy is being exposed this morning.” Whatever they try to hide is being revealed. Ha! Ha! Wisdom and discernment for the government, ordered steps, God plans. Ha! Ha! We declare, “They shall not be overtaken by their enemies for God is with them. Angels on assignment to protect. We thank You Father for the finances being brought in for the “Aliyah”—documents that need to be found are being found. Doors that have seemed closed, Father You’re opening. And every need that those returning Jews have need of, You’re providing according to Your riches in glory. We thank You Father. We thank You Father. Yes, those who are working on this are making the right connections they need. Thank You Lord.

As disciples of Christ we are ALL qualified to go and bear witness of the gospel of Jesus Christ. God will use anyone who is willing to obey the call to GO whether we’re a mature believer or a babe in Christ. Mark 16:15 (AMPC) – And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race].

1 Corinthians 1:27-29 (MSG) – 27 But God chose those whom the world considers foolish to shame those who think they are wise, and God chose the puny and powerless to shame the high and mighty. 28 He chose the lowly, the laughable in the world’s eyes—nobodies—so that he would shame the somebodies. For He chose what is regarded as insignificant in order to supersede what is regarded as prominent, 29 so that there would be no place for prideful boasting in God’s presence.

Jeremiah 1:4-8 (AMPC) – 4 Then the word of the Lord came to me [Jeremiah], saying, 5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. 6 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am only a youth. 7 But the Lord said to me, Say not, I am only a youth; for you shall go to all to whom I shall send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak. 8 Be not afraid of them [their faces], for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.

John 4:34-42 (TPT) – 34 Then Jesus spoke up and said, “My food is to be doing the will of Him who sent Me and bring it to completion.” 35 As the crowds emerged from the village, Jesus said to His disciples, “Why would you say, ‘The harvest is another four months away’? Look at all the people coming—now is harvest time! For their hearts are like vast fields of ripened grain—ready for a spiritual harvest. 36 And everyone who reaps these souls for eternal life will receive a reward. And those who plant spiritual seeds and those who reap the harvest will celebrate together with great joy! 37 And this confirms the saying, ‘One sows the seed and another reaps the harvest.’ 38 I have sent you out to harvest a field that you haven’t planted, where many others have laboured long and hard before you. And now you are privileged to profit from their labours and reap the harvest.” 39 So there were many from the Samaritan village who became believers in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony: “He told me everything I ever did!” 40 Then they begged Jesus to stay with them, so He stayed there for two days, 41 resulting in many more coming to faith in Him because of His teachings. 42 Then the Samaritans said to the woman, “We no longer believe just because of what You told us, but now we’ve heard Him ourselves and are convinced that He really is the true Savior of the world!”

Matthew 4:18-20 (TPT) – 18 As He was walking by the shore of Lake Galilee, Jesus noticed two fishermen who were brothers. One was nicknamed Keefa (later called Peter), and the other was Andrew, his brother. Watching as they were casting their nets into the water, 19 Jesus called out to them and said, “Come and follow Me, and I will transform you into men who catch people for God.” 20 Immediately they dropped their nets and left everything behind to follow Jesus.

Matthew 9:37-38 (TPT) – 37 He turned to His disciples and said, “The harvest is huge and ripe! But there are not enough harvesters to bring it all in. 38 As you go, plead with the Owner of the Harvest to thrust out many more reapers to harvest His grain!”

The love of God in us should compel us to reach out to the unsaved. 1 John 1:18 (TPT) – Beloved children our love can’t be an abstract theory we only talk about, but a way of life demonstrated through our living deeds. We are praying God to stir His love and compassion within us so we will reach out to those that are still lost.

Prayed…

• Thank You Jesus. Father we’ve heard Your Word. You commanded us to go into all the world and preach the gospel. This is the only thing that will save a man. Holy Spirit we ask You this morning to speak to the hearts of men, women, and children who are yet to be saved. Soften those hearts to receive the Word. Father we ask You to thrust out more labourers into the harvest field. Stir within the labourers an excitement, a burning desire to reach the lost. That the love of God in them will compel them to speak and not to be ashamed of the gospel, it is the power of God unto salvation. Father anoint Your labourers, a fresh infilling—they’re not going out dry, but full of the Spirit. Sensitive—they’re sensitive to the harvest. Like Paul, they shall be all things to all men, yet not deviating from the truth of the Word. The labourers are not afraid of the faces of men. They’re bold in the Spirit. They stand their ground. They’re not moved by the circumstances. They’re not moved by the raging of the people. They’re not moved by the persecution—strength to those who’s knees are weak. They’re finishers! They’re finishers! They obey the Commander and Chief. They’re not growing weary for they shall reap the harvest. And as they go forth Father, we thank You that You’re supplying all their needs. Yes, all their needs: transportation, food, finances, hotels, divine connections. Thank You Father, divine connections. You’re connecting labourer to labourer and connecting them to those in need of salvation. And we thank You for open doors—God doors that no man shall shut. And we thank You for that Father, in Jesus’ name.

Excerpt from a prayer from “Plans, Purposes, and Pursuits”
By Kenneth E. Hagin

“…Pastors are so important in the plans and purposes of God, because the sheep must have a shepherd. And there are to be more pastors than any other ministry gift manifested. And they’re so important in this hour. This is a crucial hour—a critical hour—we say a lot of times. But it is a very, very serious hour. And it is an hour for the pastor, the shepherd to be in full potential and manifestation of his office; to be in full manifestation and potential manifestation of his office. Oh, Father God, may pastors be endued with a new spirit. May every one of them be empowered with revelation gifts, a spirit of knowledge, and a spirit of knowing in their lives.

No, pastors will not stand, necessarily, in the office of the prophet. But they will be empowered with a spirit of knowing and especially with a spirit of wisdom, oh, Father God, until those things that have seemed a problem to them will be no more a problem, for they’ll have the answer. They’ll have the answer! And it will just seem that they have been standing on a ledge, so to speak, above the valley; but now they’ll stand on the mountaintop. They’ll stand on the mountaintop. And for some of them, their pulpit will no longer be a prison, but their pulpit will be a throne.

For Satan is a defeated foe. He’ll not win in any situation, but he will lose every single time, for he is a defeated foe. And pastors shall have much cause for rejoicing.

Oh, my, my, my. And may a special unction rest upon those who go to foreign fields, Lord, where the darkness is so dark. May the light shine even more, and may their lives be enhanced with Your glory.

And may every single one of us, whatever area of ministry we may be in, whatever area of life—oh, dear God, may every one of us be willing to pay the price, because there is a cost. Thank God, Jesus paid the price for our redemption and salvation. But there is a price to be paid when it comes to obeying You and fulfilling the ministry that You called us to do. And sometimes, it means that we do not—that we even have to deny the flesh of legitimate pleasures and things that are all right, but we just have to spend that extra time, that extra time with You.

Oh, Father God, may not a single one of us forget this night or forget this day, but may every single one of us—from our very innermost being, say, “Lord, I’ll pay the price no matter what others may do. I’ll do Your work, Your will. Your plan shall be consummated in my life. Your will for my life and ministry shall be perfected. In the Name of Jesus.”

Eph 1:15-23, 3:14-21
For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, 16 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers; 17 [I always pray] that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may grant you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation [that gives you a deep and personal and intimate insight] into the true knowledge of Him [for we know the Father through the Son]. 18 And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints (God’s people), 19 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength 20 which He produced in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule and authority and power and dominion [whether angelic or human], and [far above] every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and world but also in the one to come. 22 And He put all things [in every realm] in subjection under Christ’s feet, and appointed Him as [supreme and authoritative] head over all things in the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills and completes all things in all [believers].

Phil 1:8-11
For God is my witness, how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus [whose great love fills me]. 9 And this I pray, that your love may abound more and more [displaying itself in greater depth] in real knowledge and in practical insight, 10 so that you may learn to recognize and treasure what is excellent [identifying the best, and distinguishing moral differences], and that you may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ [actually living lives that lead others away from sin]; 11 filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God [so that His glory may be both revealed and recognized].

Col 1:9-14
For this reason, since the day we heard about it, we have not stopped praying for you, asking [specifically] that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom [with insight into His purposes], and in understanding [of spiritual things], 10 so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord [displaying admirable character, moral courage, and personal integrity], to [fully] please Him in all things, bearing fruit in every good work and steadily growing in the knowledge of God [with deeper faith, clearer insight and fervent love for His precepts]; 11 [we pray that you may be] strengthened and invigorated with all power, according to His glorious might, to attain every kind of endurance and patience with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints (God’s people) in the Light.
13 For He has rescued us and has drawn us to Himself from the dominion of darkness, and has transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption [because of His sacrifice, resulting in] the forgiveness of our sins [and the cancellation of sins’ penalty].

1 Thess 5:23-24
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [that is, separate you from profane and vulgar things, make you pure and whole and undamaged—consecrated to Him—set apart for His purpose]; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete and [be found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Faithful and absolutely trustworthy is He who is calling you [to Himself for your salvation], and He will do it [He will fulfill His call by making you holy, guarding you, watching over you, and protecting you as His own].

2 Thess 1:11-12
With this in view, we constantly pray for you, that our God will count you worthy of your calling [to faith] and with [His] power fulfill every desire for goodness, and complete [your] every work of faith, 12 so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you [by what you do], and you in Him, according to the [precious] grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Is 35: 1-2, 6c, 8
The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad for them,
And the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose;
2 It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice,
Even with joy and singing.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
The excellence of Carmel and Sharon.
They shall see the glory of the LORD,
The excellency of our God.
6c For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness,
And streams in the desert.
8 A highway shall be there, and a road,
And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness.
The unclean shall not pass over it,
But it shall be for others.
Whoever walks the road, although a fool,
Shall not go astray.

Deut 11:10-11
For the land which you go to possess is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and watered it by foot, as a vegetable garden; 11 but the land which you cross over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the rain of heaven,

Lev 26: 3-7,14
‘If you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments, and perform them,
4 then I will give you rain in its season, the land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
5 Your threshing shall last till the time of vintage, and the vintage shall last till the time of sowing;
you shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
6 I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and none will make you afraid;
I will rid the land of evil beasts,
and the sword will not go through your land.
7 You will chase your enemies, and they shall fall by the sword before you.
14 ‘But if you do not obey Me, and do not observe all these commandments,
We are praying for the ultimate, visible manifestation of the glory of God. We are asking for the rains of the Spirit, for without the rains we won’t see the harvest. We need the Holy Spirit.
