By Tim Taylor, March 5, 2020 -  40+ MILLION souls have been impacted.  I'm going to share with you the effect of God's abiding presence on the harvest by looking at two ministers in two different nations who have see similar results.  It's my sincerest hope and desire that other ministers would choose to adopt the 1Church1Day strategy which is a modern application of an ancient blue print first modeled by King David on Mount Zion. 

Andrew Murray was a missionary who served in South Africa and transformed the Dutch Reformed Church and was a forerunner in the Pentacostal movement. He wrote a powerful book called "With Christ in the Ministry of Prayer."  His passion for God's presence impactred many. 

Andrew said, "the man who mobilizes the Church to pray will make the greatest contribution to world evangelism in history."

Recently we've seen reports from India and Myanmar that illustrate how the catalytic strategy based upon the restoration of David's tabernacle has modeled by our departed Andrew Murray said.  The results are amazing and still going on.

Now, I know there are many other churches and ministries praying.  But, what highlights both of these nations was the impact it was having on not only salvations but also in the government mountain.  Both nations made history has a Christian was installed either at a state or vicepresident level and these were areas that were specifically targeted in prayer.  The articles linked below share more of those details. It's a testimony I shared this past Sunday in Oregon.

As I ministered at New Life in Milwaukie Oregon this past weekend, Pastor Ed challenged me to get a calculator out and figure out how many people were actually impacted. I'm humbled and amazed to see the vision and expecation we had actually manifesting.  I'm going to share about two different nations where ministers chose to use the same strategy and produced similar results. 

• Since 1Church1Day was introduced in India they've seen the Christian population grow from 2.5% to 5.8%.  In the source article it notes that some places, like Andhra Pradesh are leading the way.  This is the state whom a young minister I mentored has used 1Church1Day to establish the India Prayer League.  They have 45 churches today using the 1Church1Day strategy which is just a modern appliation of the strategy King David used in his tabernacle.  This 3.3% growth in the last 10 years translates to more than 39,600,000!  That's more than thirty nine MILLION souls.  That's huge and an example of Andrew Murray's quote.   Click here for the source article.
•  In Myanmar where I've mentored Dr. Kawl since 2006 they used the strategy to launch MT Horeb Prayer Center with seven denominations cooperating together.  They to have seen similar results.  The Christian population has grown from 4% to 6% of the population.  In a nation of 54 million that equates to 1,080,000.  Praise God!  Isn't that awesome.   Click here for the source article. 

What's the common thread?  Ministers and churches using a strategy inspired by King David.  See what the scriptures say. 

By Tim Taylor Feb 27, 2020 - Yesterday I sent an email to some of our family, friends and long time partners. Rather than write an article, I thought I'd just share the email.

Dear KLI Family, Tribe, Fellow Workers & friends,
 
As you know the 1Church1Day strategy is based upon the restoration of David’s tabernacle (Acts 15:16-17 & Amos 9:11-13).  One of the results or evidences of God’s abiding presence is a harvest of souls.  Consider this 10 year testimony which is unfolding.  Just yesterday the young apostle I’ve been mentoring in India since 2009 reported the following on Facebook.  See the attached.  Recognize English is his 3rd language.  Bottom line, they are making history.  This article records how Christians now make up 30% of the population.  The article below highlights how in the last 10 years (I began mentoring Nani in 2009) the Christian population has grown from 2.5% to 5.8% (100+% church growth rate) in just 10 years and Andhra Pradesh is leading the way.
 
For context see Proof! 1Church1Day Reveals that History is in the Hands of the Praying Connected Church.    The cool thing is this growth of Christians in Andhra Pradesh is being reported in India.

This is the 10th worst persecuted nation in the world and the #1 state out of 27 in India where the Church is growing is Andhra Pradesh.  Last report I had indicated that there were 45 churches praying each month using 1Church1Day.  Last month as I understand, another 7 were added.
 
Inspired and informed by the strategy Nani’s (apostle) brother acquired a job working for a news outlet and also worked on the campaign of the 1st Christian candidate elected to office through a party formed by Christians.  So, they mobilized their prayer in response to timely spiritual intelligence and are transforming their state. 

Let’s rejoice with them and pray the other 26 states in India see and the Churches join in the India Prayer League, which is, a Kingdom League. 
 
I also want to thank you many of you who have partnered with us for so long.  This is fruit that accrues to your eternal reward (Rev 22:12 & 3 John 4-8).  

We are expecting the changes to continue, Jesus name is exalted, as Christ’s Church is united through this strategy and they continue to pray and obey.

Acts 15:16-17
‘After this I will return
And will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down;
I will rebuild its ruins,
And I will set it up;
So that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,
Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name,
Says the Lord who does all these things.’
 
Proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom,

By Tim Taylor January 19, 2020.  Note: two weeks after this orginal article was posted a sign occured on 2/2/2020 marking the word.  See below.  “It’s 2 Simple” takes a peek inside a number of chapter and verses containing 2’s culminating in Isaiah 22:22 which I believe is the “KEY” to the keys of the kingdom of God.  When combined these scriptures provide remarkable insight into a number of truths.  Note that almost every scripture refers to 2:2 or 22:22.  In a few for context I will add the verse before or after and I'll underline the 2:2 verse.  Now, let's take a look and let me know what you think.

The Nature & Acts of God
Genesis 2:2 – God is our Creator
And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

1 Samuel 2:2 – He is holy
“No one is holy like the Lord,
For there is none besides You,
Nor is there any rock like our God.

Judges 2:2-3 – Consequences of Not Obeying His Voice
And you shall make no covenant with the inhabitants of this land; you shall tear down their altars.’ But you have not obeyed My voice. Why have you done this? Therefore I also said, ‘I will not drive them out before you; but they shall be thorns in your side, and their gods shall be a snare to you.’ ”

Malachi 2:2 – More Consequences
If you will not hear,
And if you will not take it to heart,
To give glory to My name,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“I will send a curse upon you,
And I will curse your blessings.
Yes, I have cursed them already,
Because you do not take it to heart.

Jeremiah 2:2 – But If we Cry Out He Will Remember and Deliver
“Go and cry in the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord: “I remember you,
The kindness of your youth,
The love of your betrothal,
When you went after Me in the wilderness,
In a land not sown.

1 John 2:2 – He Paid the Price We Could not Pay
And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

Mark 2:2 – He Preached the Word
Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them.

Acts 2:2 – He Fills the House
And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

Join us January 17-18 in Elma Washington for a historic moment.  It's based upon the revelation in Lamentations 5:14-18 which reveals when Zion was desolate the elders stopped gathering in the gates.  

Last year leaders in our state adopted the 1Church1Day model to mobilize prayer even as I met with state leaders in Olympia at the beginning of our last legislative session.  These leaders asked for "the Church" to pray.

As of today we have 25 days each month in Washington State covered with 24/7 prayer.  The houses of prayer associated with the Northwest Prayer Gathering who is hosting this "Winter Burn" has played a big role along with other churches and ministries in building this canopy of continual prayer just like King David did on Mount Zion. 
​
Since continual prayer is being established over our state, so ought the elders to be sat back in the gates. Our goal, 24/7/365 prayer with the elders (leaders with actual jurisdiction) established back in the gates so they can consult with one another and to seek God for the wisdom needed to address the challenges of this day.  

So we are connecting civil leaders, with God's prophets, God's people and God's presence.  We'd love to see you join us to pray and lend your voice to the decree and our efforts to obey Isaiah 9:6-7. 

Join us Friday night January 17th to discover: 

• How there is a remnant arising and a people that's been pioneering the house of prayer in our state.
• The godly leaders we are going to pray for and send them in 2020 into all 7 spheres of society.
• How this strategy used by the Church in India and Myanmar recently made history as the Christian population doubled and Christians now occupy the highest political positions they've ever held in each respective nation.
• How leaders in our state, business, government, media, education, healthcare, the family and the Church are helping develop decrees which the Church can then proclaim.
• How we are leveraging the exponential power of agreement and how you can be involved in exponentially increasing that power. 
• How the house of God is actually the gate of heaven and much more.  

When, where and what else?  

Over the years I've discovered several keys to building our Father's house of prayer.  But today I am going to share a key that I've never seen addressed.  It has to do with the role of the kings and priests.  It's based upon a pattern King David first modeled.  It's the blue print for our strategy.  By 2012 leaders from over 38 nations had reported it had been responsible for establishing 31 houses of prayer from which 40+ churches were birthed.  However, there have been hundreds if not thousands of places  un-impacted because the did not follow the pattern. 

I'm going to share it today and risk offending you because I love my heavenly Father, I love His Church, His people, and the world. David's pattern is the key to the end time harvest of souls.  So with that in mind...

Every reformer in scripture followed King David's plan for inviting God's abiding presence on MT Zion.  What King David did on Zion in his tabernacle provides us the keys.  It is the pattern and that is why God says through Acts 15:16-17 that in the latter days David's tabernacle would be restored.  What is the purpose?  So that the rest of mankind can seek the Lord.   

Who are some of the reformers?  Solomon, Asa, Josiah, Ezra, Nehemiah and Hezekiah!  What is the pattern?  

Kings Initiated the Building of God's House!
The pattern begins with kings, not priests, who initiate building the house of God.  King David's first decision as king was to invite God's abiding presence through 24/7 prayer, praise and worship (1 Chronicles 13:1-2).  That decision included the king inviting other leaders to join him. The priests were charged with overseeing the building of this house of prayer and the kings and leaders gave first to this effort.  In other words, they put their money where their mouth was. There was action behind their words that God and men could see.

In 2 Samuel 6 we find his David's first attempt failed as they began with music and moving the Ark of the Covenant (type of God's presence) on a new cart.  Uzzah died when he touched the ark so the move of God had to stop.  It spent 3 months in Obededum's house before David discovered the proper way.  

David discovered that the ark had to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites which are a type of the fivefold ministry today (this topic is addressed in "Addressing the Issue of Pay to Pray).  The next key was modeled in 2 Samuel 6:13. They took six paces and then sacrificed offerings. 

Offerings are worship and one of the important signs of covenant to God from man.  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.  The passion for God's presence will be reflected in your giving of time and your monies.  These actions reflect what is really in your heart.  Jesus says in John 15:13 that greater love has no one than this, than to lay his life down for his friends.  Then Jesus proceeded to the cross.  He love and He gave.  Bottom line, love gives their life and this includes time and money. 

God's word says in Acts 15:16-17 and in Amos 9:11-13 that in the latter days God would rebuild David's tabernacle and set it up so the rest of mankind could seek the Lord.  The restoration of David's tabernacle is the key to the end time harvest.

Now, when I say David's tabernacle, I'm not talking about the literal tabernacle.  You see the main thing was not the tent as much as it was what King David did to make God's abiding presence welcome on MT Zion, in the city of Jerusalem in Israel.  He tasked the Levites, who are a type of the five-fold ministry, with the responsibility or organizing teams of people to offer up continual prayer, praise and worship.  By continual I mean 24/7/365 prayer, praise and worship.

Why?  Because David and the leaders determined in 1 Chronicles 13:2, that God's abiding presence was essential to their success and survival.  Therefore, they sought to make God's presence welcome by recreating the atmosphere of heaven on earth through continual prayer, praise and worship.  

God's plan is for His house to be a house of prayer for all nations.  

Isaiah 56:7
Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices Will be accepted on My altar;
For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

The house of prayer is God's vision.  I sincerely believe that what David did his tabernacle on MT Zion was the blue print for this house of prayer.  That's what 1Church1Day is all about.  Mobilizing, coordinating, facilitating teams of teams such that continual prayer, praise and worship is offered up in a city, region, county, state or nation. 

Three Critical Elements Found in David's Pattern 

1. The king and the leaders both civil and religious decided God's presence was absolutely essential.  1 Chronicles 13:2
2. The whole process was kicked off and maintained with extravagant worship.  2 Samuel 6:13
3. The first thing the King did once it was set up is he delivered his first Psalm to Asaph.  1 Chronicles 16:7

In Hebraic culture kings and elders sat in the gates and made decisions with prophets giving God's counsel.  Elders consisted of civil and religious leaders.  These leaders decided to bring back God's presence. 

The second part of these three critical elements I rarely emphasize but it is a vital part.  In 2nd Samuel 6 David begins to bring back the ark of the God on a new cart.  They are thousands of people along with lots of instruments, singing etc. But it did not work as when the ox stumbled Uzzah put out his hand to steady the ark.  He died.  David had to leave the ark of the Lord in the house of Obed-Edom for three months until they had consulted the Lord on the right way to handle God's presence.  

We find two things in 1 Chronicles 15 and 2 Samuel 6:13-18.  First, the ark of the Lord had to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites.  The second thing that was missing was offerings.  David began the second successful attempt with offerings.  

On June 18th I saw this Charisma Magazine article and shared it on KLI's Facebook page saying:

Attention KLI & 1Church1Day practitioners!

This article highlights and encourages actions that the 1Church1Day strategy systematically empowers leaders to employ.  It equips them with the tools and strategic plan to mobilize their congregation, or the Church in a city, county, state or region to do EXACTLY what this former satanic high priest says we need to do to stop the devil dead in his tracks and hinder evil.  

Some love the testimonies of the individual encounters when in truth, it is the day in and day out discipline of standing your watch, praying, lifting up a canopy of informed intercession for your family, neighborhood, city, county, state and nation that makes the difference. This requires TEAMWORK which is part of what the very effective 1Church1Day strategy provides. It is an apostolic mobilization and communication plan which assists leaders in forming up the army of the Lord in their church and community so they can pray and act strategically to enforce the will of King Jesus. 

Here's a couple of excerpts from the article which really help underscore what we empower people to do who use 1Church1Day.  The underlines are mine. 

Excerpt 1: I wrote this book because I wanted Christians to know that [there's] not only a defense spiritual warfare, but there's an offense spiritual warfare," he told CBN News. "We need to keep the devil, the devil in his place."

Excerpt 2: Ramirez now encourages Christians to broaden their prayers and to be sensitive to pray for the nation, schools and other areas.

I was ecstatic as I read the ChristianPost's report The good (Christian) news you didn’t hear from India yesterday. It began with the bad news which underscored the fact that India has become the 10th worst country for Christian persecution. The good news came out of Andrah Pradesh! It provides proof that 1Church1Day (One Church One Day) puts history in the hands of a connected praying church (many local congregations praying together).

In 2009 a young pastor found our website and connected with us. I began mentoring him and teaching him about how then Operation Rolling Thunder which became 1Church1Day in 2014 worked. He began to mobilize congregations with one church taking one day to pray 24/7. The last time we visited him in 2017 many of the pastors from the churches brought their watch list showing me the watches their people covered in their day of 24/7 prayer. Now, back to the article. Check this out!

Excerpt with underlines I added from The good (Christian) news you didn’t hear from India... "But there is good news from India as well. Really good news.First, the gospel continues to spread powerfully in that vast nation of more than 1.3 billion souls. As reported by Dr. Ralph Wilson, “the percentage of Christians has increased substantially from 2.5% a decade ago to about 5.8% today. That represents a huge increase in the growth rate. Something is happening!”
And in some states, the growth is much greater, with Christians representing as much as 10-15 percent of the total population.
This is truly unprecedented.
Second, this surge in Christian population was in evidence in the election results in the state of Andhra (that is, Andhra Pradesh, a state I have visited annually since 1993). End of excerpt.

The unprecedented growth began in 2009, the same year the 1Church1Day strategy began to be used to mobilize continual prayer in Andhra Pradesh. Now I am not claiming that these were the only churches praying. I know there had to have been others.  But this does reflect the kind of Church growth we've seen in times past.  Secondly, they are applying the principles we teach praying into the 7 mountains.  They were praying for this party and candidate.  This is a powerful testimony and example of what can happen with the Church unites together to pray as one.

Discipling Nations & the 7 Spheres

This article was first published on Kingdom League's old blog in 2011.  I'm re-posting it here because 1Church1Day is the same strategy as ORT.  It's just a different name and the lessons learned are still true 14 years later.  ​

It’s been over six years since God spoke to me on December 14, 2004 about the Operation Rolling Thunder (ORT) strategy.  I spoke that strategy first to three leaders.  It is October 5, 2011 today.  I quit trying to keep up with all the statistics in participation in 2009. It became overwhelming.  By then we'd seen leaders in 23+ nations and over 10,000+ churches participate.  At last count leaders in 34+ nations have utilized this strategy to mobilize and deploy the body of Christ to engage the seven spheres of society and to establish 24/7/365 prayer in a city or region.

Proven Results
Recently our National CONECTer in Kenya, Pastor Thomas and our National CONECTer in Myanmar, Apostle John Mark provided me an updated report.  Between these two updated reports we discovered that there are churches from 21+ denominations, in 35 cities, with over 61 churches working together, 25 city prayer centers launched, and 19 church plants between them.  Neither time nor space permits me to share the supernatural signs, salivations, water baptisms, and healings that they report as well.

Corporate intimacy with our heavenly Father produces supernatural corporate fruit.  Operation Rolling Thunder (ORT) is a strategy going strong and serving those who utilize the wisdom of God's strategy found in it.  At the same time I could point to numerous examples where the strategy seemingly only worked for a short time or failed.

Lessons Learned
After 6+ years of overseeing ORT, training and consulting with ministers, mayors, state representatives, fire chiefs, business leaders, doctors, etc. I've learned some lessons about that is takes to begin to transform and continue that transformation process long term.  In fact, I will share some common characteristics and lessons learned from churches, cities, counties and states where in we see long term results that we'd all agree speak to some level of transformation (ie. decreasing crime, church growth, economy effected, abortion rates decline, adoption rates rise, etc.).

We are thrilled and rejoicing with the One Hope Team in Lane County Oregon!  They now have 45 churches praying every month with 10 strategic councils providing direction to their 24/7 prayer. 

One Hope was founded by Steve and Patti Bus.  Here's their leadership team today click here.  They launched 1Church1Day in May 2015 click here wherein God marked their Kick Off with some amazing signs and wonders just like you see in my book Operation Rolling Thunder.  They say 225 lightning strikes followed by 5 earthquakes. 

What I've found over the years is that when God's people obey His voice, they make "His-story" (history) and sometimes God chooses to put His signature (sign-nature) on that page of history.  I've learned He does this to encourage His people to continue until they see measurable results such as:

March 17, 2019 - Answers to Prayer Produced through 44 Churches who do 1Church1Day in Lane County OR!
March 22, 2017 - City Manager says "What we see are answers to prayer, not just serendipitous acts!
March 22, 2017 - 1Church1Day Testimony - Record Low Employment!
