Two important national elections needing God's turnaround:

Please remember Malaysia (9 May) and TimurLeste (12 May) elections in your prayers.

TimurLeste needs a major breakthrough. It has such great opportunity to be a major blessing for the SE Asia region.

1. Pray that the Lord will grant a fair and just election.
2. For upright leaders whose hearts have the fear of God and care for the nation to form the government. That corrupted leaders will not be elected and will not surface again.
3. That Malaysia's 'Coat of Arms design' will not be supported by the two tigers which are called "rampant" tigers, but may the new design be the Lion of Judah!
   
4. Pray that the spirit of these tigers will be bound and destroyed by the Blood of the Lamb.
5. For peace in the nation without any violence after the results of the election are out.
6. That churches in these two countries continue to have freedom to preach the gospel and be His salt and light.

(From a concerned Malaysian prayer leader)

90,000 Christians were murdered for their faith around the world this year (2016), according to a study from The Center for the Study of Global Christianity.

Amy Kellogg reported on "Special Report" tonight that the CSGC puts the number of Christians martyred in the last decade at 900,000, which amounts to one being killed every six minutes.

She explained that their definition for a martyr is anyone who lost their life prematurely as a result of human hostility, while they were upholding Christianity.

"This makes Christians the most persecuted religious group in the world," Kellogg said.

She reported that of the Christians who lost their lives in 2016, 70 percent were killed in tribal fights in Africa.

The remaining 30 percent of Christians lost their lives in acts of terrorism, destruction of Christian villages and government persecution worldwide.

"The Center for the Study of Global Christianity says that highlighting the number of martyrs actually gives some dignity to those who have died, and it also keeps up the pressure on those who have the power to do something about the situation to actually act," Kellogg reported.

Please continue to uphold our brothers and sisters in Christ living in hostile areas of the world that the Lord will embolden and protect them as they bear witness to their Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and other neighbors and friends that may be resistant and retaliatory. May the blood of the martyrs indeed become the seed of the Church to sprout, blossom and grow even in the most inhospitable and challenging areas of the world!

Join thousands of Christians as we pray, worship and make strong declarations for God’s Kingdom to come in our families, churches and communities.  It is time to pray for an unprecedented turning to God in our nation.

WHAT TO EXPECT:

This is the eleventh Trumpet Call we've held in Birmingham and YOU ARE INVITED!

The Trumpet Call will be a day where we will spend time in worship (led by local worship leaders) and prayer (led by the Prayer Connections England Network) as we stand together and declare that 'It's Time to Turn' for our nation.

30 April – 3 May 2018

For the sixth year in a row, Australia is calling the nations of the world to join with them to pray and fast for four days for the United States of America, from 30 April – 3 May 2018.

May 3 is America’s National Day of Prayer. The theme is “Pray for America - UNITY” Ephesians 4:3.

April 30 is America’s National Day of Repentance.  http://www.dayofrepentance1.org

Commissioner James Condon, a member of the National Day of Prayer & Fasting team, said, “God has done remarkable things in America since we began to pray and fast, but God can do greater things yet! We in Australia believe it is our turn to stand in the gap for the nation of America and pray for revival and transformation for the USA through prayer and fasting according to 2 Chronicles 7:14. Whilst America has a new administration, the need for a new National Awakening has never been more apparent.

Commissioner Condon from Salvation Army continued, “We in Australia are grateful for the protection that America gave Australia and the nations of the free world during World War II. The Battle of the Coral Sea, fought by USA in 1942, was the turning point in the Second World War for Australia. America continues to be a blessing to the world. Even to this day the USA is the largest contributor of foreign aid among all the countries of the world.  Thank God for America!”

President Reagan renewed the call for a National Day of Prayer in 1982 and said, “National prayer is deeply rooted in our American heritage… The first National Day of Prayer was proclaimed in 1775 by the Second Continental Congress. As thousands gathered in prayer in places of worship and encampments throughout the new land, the dispersed colonists found a new spirit of UNITY and resolve in this remarkable expression of public faith.”

Sue Tinworth, a member of the National Day of Prayer and Fasting team, talking about the history of prayer in the USA said, “President Abraham Lincoln, on 30 April 1863 called for a Day of ‘Humiliation, Prayer and Fasting’ at a time of great national crisis by Governmental decree which said, “We have grown in numbers, wealth and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God… It behooves us then, to humble ourselves… to confess our national sins, and to pray for clemency and forgiveness”. Unfortunately, today America is again in a dangerous predicament because it has forgotten God.  Sadly the situation in Australia is very similar. We in our nation have forgotten God and we are in danger of paying the price for our sin.” 

Ps Warwick Marsh, also from the National Day of Prayer and Fasting team said, “We are thankful for America’s strong Christian heritage, but this will not save America, only the blood of Christ can.

America and Australia need revival and reformation, as does the whole world. We all need more of God. We invite you and the nations of the world to join with us in four days of prayer and fasting for the USA.”

Greetings on behalf of The Resurrection of Jesus Christ film production team.  We are excited to further spread the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and the power of His resurrection.

God has commissioned us to produce an “A” list Hollywood film for global release.  His instructions are clear.  Produce a film, a Bible study, an anointed soundtrack, an interactive game, a technology platform and more, that will accomplish the following objectives:

• Develop an “A” level movie that captures the world’s imagination.
• Unite the global church through the production and release of the movie.
• Provide a “turnkey” evangelism opportunity world-wide.
• Depict the realities of heaven and hell.
• Spiritually influence the Hollywood movie making industry and redefine the distribution process via global multimedia outlets.

Current Status:

The project is on the verge of tremendous breakthrough.  We are at a critical juncture right now.  We are asking you to partner with us in fervent intercession.  While God’s assignment is clear and His favor is evident, there has also been significant opposition both in the natural and in the supernatural realms.

TARGET PRAYER POINTS

• Protection: Ask God to provide His protection over every person and detail related to the project. We know we are clearly engaging in a spiritual battle. Satan will do all he can to stop this project from proceeding. Pray against power and principalities that may be holding back the project.
• Divine Enablement: Ask God to pour out His power over the team and the project. We need supernatural protection and spiritual authority to continue the work ahead. We are trusting the Lord to guide every decision and guide us through the leading of Holy Spirit.
• Resources: Ask God to provide every resource that is needed. We need interim financing to carry out the ongoing day to day work of the project. We need bridge funding to allow us to develop a multi-media platform and rally the global church around the project (target five million dollars). We need major funding for the production and distribution of the movie (target approximately 200 million).

Thank you!
