'UNBELIEF' AND 'COMFORTABLE' CHRISTIANITY FUELING MILLENNIAL INTEREST IN OCCULT
Pastors who spoke with The Christian Post believe the lack of spiritual power and a "comfortable" Christianity in the Church has created a vacuum of sorts, and a mindset of fear has constricted the real power of the Holy Spirit....
"Though some churches do explore the mystical realities of the spiritual realm, they are often marginalized due to misunderstandings or possible lack of biblical integrity," said Wanda Alger, field correspondent with Intercessors for America and a pastor . . . .
Pray for an increase in Spirit-filled, biblical Christianity in our youth.
Pray Gen 3:7.
SENATOR LANKFORD AND RELIGIOUS LIBERTY GROUPS PROMOTE FREE EXERCISE OF RELIGION
"This week, among many things dealing with judges, is resolving the issue of the free exercise of religion. Do Americans need not apply to be judges, to be in public office, to be able to serve in the federal government if they have a faith, and they live their faith? Or can we, as we have said for more than 200 years, you can have any faith, live your faith, or have no faith at all and still be a great American . . ."
Pray for impartial representation in all Senate and House votes regarding religious liberty.
A top Iranian military commander has threatened to launch ballistic missile attacks on U.S. forces in the region amid a public effort by the Islamic Republic to show off its advanced missile capabilities, according to U.S. officials and regional reports.
Iranian leaders disclosed that their advanced ballistic missile technology, which could be used as part of a nuclear weapons program, is sophisticated enough to strike U.S. forces up to nearly 1,300 miles, or 2,000 kilometers, away, which encompasses all U.S. bases in the region.
Pray for our military personnel overseas to remain safe in light of these new revelations.
Pray Deut 31:6.
U.S. PUSHES SAUDI-IRAQI ALLIANCE TO STEM IRANIAN EXPANSION
The Iraq-Saudi alliance is meant to anchor what may be a broader involvement of Saudi Arabia, not only in Iraq but also in eastern Syria. If that materializes over the coming year it would signal to Iran that there is a competing "crescent" of influence bisecting their land corridor which encompasses Tehran, Baghdad, Damascus and Beirut. This all hinges on whether America's game-plan for Baghdad comes to fruition and Iraq is pried loose from Iran's vast influence. For US policy- makers, talk of empowering a "nationalist" Iraq and dismissing Iran's role as either exaggerated or non-existent is currently more rhetoric than reality.

"When God's presence becomes a tangible reality in a community, the church then becomes a catalyst for growth. God's presence is more effective than our best church growth methods. When God's presence is tangible, supernatural ministry results and becomes a magnet for hungry souls and broken people."
