As I waited upon the Lord I heard "the power of one."  He showed me why you, your prayer and your voice matters. I discovered the supernatural equation for exponential power.  Trust me, numbers matter especially when the exponential power of Holy Spirit comes upon those numbers.   

Here is how the revelation unfolded.  As I meditated upon this phrase the Lord reminded me of:

John 17:20-22
“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:

Luke 3:16
John answered, saying to all, “I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

Luke 24:49
Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”

Acts 2:1-4
​ When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

1 John 5:7-8
For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

Here's the Revelation of "The Power of One" 

Last night we made history in Washington state as 3 legislators with the Washington Legislative Prayer Caucus,  over dinner at Daniel’s Prayer Ministry whose prayer is led by Elizabeth Sorenson adopted the 1Church1Day strategy for our state forming an apostolic/strategic council. 

The beauty of this is the decrees and alerts for this state will come directly from those who are on the front lines and have actual jurisdiction.  The 1Church1Day system provides a way, a common communication protocol if you will,  to connect diverse churches, ministries networks and individuals  so we can all pray about what’s going on in our state.  Just download the app. Click here for Android devices on Google Play and click here for Iphones and IOS devices on Apple Itunes. 

I shared with them the strategy last night using the video above to share the vision and I also highlighted the characteristics of a nation where Zion was desolate using Lamentations 5:14 & 18.  It says that when Zion was desolate, in other words, no coordinated 24/7 prayer like David had on MT Zion, that the elders no longer gathered in the gates. 

Last night that was changed.  The elders are being seated for civil government in the state gate.  I did what King David did 1 Chronicles 13:2-3, I presented the vision to leaders for bringing back God’s presence to our state and said  if this seems good and if it is of the Lord then let us send out to our brethren.  They said yes, and authorized me, sent us us to go and mobilize 24/7 I this state, my state, and I’ll be working to establish state councils in the other 6 spheres and the 5 fold in this state.  

1 Corinthians 15:44-46 introduce a spiritual truth.  First the natural and then the spiritual.  Daniel 6:27, Acts 2:19, and Hebrews 2:4 are just a few of the scriptures that teach us another important spiritual truth and that is that God uses signs and wonders to communicate.  

The signs consists of events that point to God's word and His will.  Here is a current example. 

On January 7, 2019 I shared the word of the Lord regarding God's desire for His people to recalibrate their moral compass.  Three days later God marked that message with a powerful sign that should make everyone wonder.  Fox News reported how that scientists were baffled by the geomagnetic northpole's movement which causes them to recalibrate all their instruments years earlier than expected.  To see the whole story click the Sign Scientists Just Discovered at the Northpole that points to our Moral Compass! 

God Just Gave Another Sign through His Prophet
What's the sign?  It's two things. 

It's a current event combined with consistent prophetic words that points to an element of God's word that reveals His will. In this case, a prophet had a dream on the 18th which is what prompted the bold title in this article.   

Consider These Words

Today marks the 10th day of a Daniel Fast God called us to in order to Make Way for the King in 2019.  It is a call to consecration.  The day after I wrote the last article I read a word from Jeremiah Johnson, The Cleansing Angel Visited Me, Many Will Fast & Pray in 2019,  that basically says the same thing!

This morning I awoke well before the sun rose with God speaking to me about how God wants, God needs consecrated vessels.  I was impressed that "God wants consecrated vessels.  Vessels where the cup on the inside is clean.  Why?  Because the King is coming in 2019 and He wants vessels prepared to receive the glory He is going to pour out."  

Then a number of scriptures immediately to flooded my mind!

We love the scripture in Psalm 2:6-9 that prophesies of Jesus who will sit on Zion and rule over the nations with a rod of iron.  If I've heard prophetic intercessors, prophets or ministers proclaim it once, I've heard it thousands of times. 

But what is it?  I mean, the revelation is powerful! But is there a practical way for us to put our faith in action today and bring this into reality?  If you understand what the word translated "rod" in the Hebrew is and you let the Bible interpret the Bible you can.  

What is it
So what's the rod of God?  It's God's people proclaiming a timely word from our Lord.  

So what is the Hebrew word translated rod and what does it mean?  It's the Hebrew word sebet (Strongs h7626) and it means to branch off; a stick (for punishing, writing, fighting, ruling, walking, etc.) or a clan:  a rod, sceptre, staff, or tribe.

In fact, this Hebrew word (h7626) is only translated 'rod' 34 times in the Bible where as it is translated 'tribe' more than 140 times.  It is 7x more frequently translated people and I could easily swap 'rod' for 'tribe."  Then Psalm 2:-9 would read;

“I will declare the decree: The Lord has said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You. Ask of Me, and I will give You The nations for Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth for Your possession. You shall break them with a TRIBE of iron..."

The scripture also says; 

OneHope is led by Steve Buss and his team in Eugene/Springfield Oregon. They've been using the 1Church1Day strategy in their network since 2015.  They've got 40+ churches working together to lift up a canopy of prayer over their community.  Following our strategy they have 10 councils of leaders representing the 7 spheres of society who help inform them as to what to pray. 

Kaylee, who is part of the OneHope team just sent an email saying:

We had a really significant answer to prayer last week.  Please read, rejoice, and be encouraged. It's the first testimony on the "Answer to Prayer" document. 
 
The fire chief (on our first responder strategic team) called Steve three hours after the near-tragedy to give glory to God. And the city manager (on our government team) texted us that morning saying, "please don't let One Church - One Day stop praying..." 
 
We're humbled by the way God is using our prayers.

What follows is their "Answers to Prayer Report" which describes the miracle that occurred when firefighters were ambushed by a shooter in Springfield Oregon.

Isaiah 2:2-3 
Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the Lord's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And all nations shall flow to it. Many people shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

​How can we build a mountain of prayer?  It's accomplished one person, one hour, one church/ministry, one day at a time.  Every single hour, person, or ministry who prays contributes to that.

In 1Church1Day we've developed a way to help us see how we are doing.  Inspired by our heavenly Father who even counts the number of hairs on our head (Matthew 10:29) we track every hour a person reports that they pray in the calendar as well as every day a ministry or church covers with 24/7 prayer. This way we can see how we are progressing building our Father's house of prayer for all nations. 

What's the key?  Isaiah 22:22 spoke of the key of David.  David's key combined communication and teamwork through a little administration to facilitate 24/7 continual prayer, praise and worship on Zion in Jerusalem.  

Why?  Power to Rule & Reign

I'll never forget what God showed when I was temporarily assigned to serve on the staff of COMIDEASTFOR during Desert Storm aboard the USS LaSalle. It reinforced a biblical principle of war.  It's the principle of objective. The key to unity is a common objective with enough agreement so as to form a coalition. Naturally this includes a common enemy.  Click here to get my book on Developing Apostolic Strategy which goes into 8 major principles of war.

The Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard have different cultures and we are typically competitive until we are united by a common objective and a common foe. One of my assignments on that staff was to serve as a liaison officer.  I regularly interacted with and worked with these different armed services as well as civilian shipping lines, convoys, embassies and consulates and armed services from 34 different nations who were part of the coalition. 

I marveled at generally how well everyone seemed to get along and work together. That is, until the shooting war stopped.  I was shocked to see that within 24 hours of a ceasefire everyone seemed to revert to our pre-war stance which tended to be self focused and self promoting. 

Uncommon Courage 
Representative Matt Shea from Washington State is a patriot, a Christian, an Army officer and a decorated veteran.  He shared in a report early this morning how he'd just endured the worst legislative day in his 10 years of service. It was because certain bills that violate God's word and harms families (ie. eugenics, abortion, surrogacy and a clear persecution of Christian beliefs) passed yesterday by the Democratic majority who hold the house, senate and governor's mansion.  He's standing for righteous values day in and day out.  He's a light that shines in darkness. Uncommon valor is not uncommon to him, but rather it is a daily walk.  He and a handful of other legislators (ie. Rep. Jesse Young) go where most won't go. 

He pleads and strongly highlights the need for the Church to pray. They need our help. Secondly, he emphasizes the need for alternative media sources because the current media is controlling the narrative and choosing deceive and distract the public for their liberal left wing agenda.  When you combine that along with major corporations (ie. Facebook, Google, Youtube, etc.) who also share the same political goals based upon a world view minus God (ie. Truth)... well let's just say it highlights the need for a system like ours.  

It's Time for Uncommon Cooperation
It's time for the body of Christ to unite. The issues before our state are literally life and death. The souls of men and women and their eternal destiny in heaven or in hell is really what's at stake.  It not now then when and if not you then who? 

Dennis is the Prayer Pastor for Transform Yakima Together (TYT).  They've been working with me on the first customized 1Church1Day Community Prayer Transformation System for their network. 

Prayer leaders beginning with a coordinator for National Day of Prayer (Linda I.) in 2006 began to work with me using what was then called Operation Rolling Thunder.  Their powerful testimonies regarding prayers impact on crime are recorded in my book Operation Rolling Thunder revised edition.  They've continued collaborating together all these years and TYT, I believe, was birthed through this prayer in 2015.  

Now they are helping us pioneer this new system that I believe will help to connect and serve many churches and networks to build our Father's house of prayer while gathering elders back in the gates of their respective cities, counties and states. 

I was thrilled when I received his email this morning titled "Our Prayers are Being Answered" along with the picture of the article.
