The goal is to have from four to seven tribes represented at this gathering: the Apache, Hopi, Paiute, Zuni, Ute, Arapahoe, and Northern Cheyenne. The leaders who invited them to come expressed grave concern about people in their tribe who were attempting to draw their people back into traditional religious belief systems, so he asked if that was one area we might focus on.  

Some of the issues among others that are expected to be dealt with are the Native Psychological Dilemma, Host People and Redeeming the Land, Strategic Level Spiritual Warfare, Spiritual Mapping, SWAT Training (basic principles and tools needed to carry out prophetic prayer initiatives), Ministry of Intercession, Deliverance Ministry Team Training, Ministry of Inner Healing, and Spiritual Gifts.

Ivan and Linda Doxtator from First Nations Counseling Ministries will be doing the training. For more information about attending, please contact Pete Belon 505 6864020.

Please pray for His strong anointing on the Doxtators and all those who take part. Pray for the development of a united prayer movement among the Native peoples of the USA. They are crucial for the deliverance and transformation of America.

The success of the Lesbian Gay Bi-Sexual Transgender (LGBT) rampage continues.  Simply put, we live in an era that has ushered in the end of religious freedom in favor of "gay rights."  Any resistance to redefining the nation by a sexual perversion is considered an affront, resulting in the silencing of any Christian belief.

The current battles have moved from same-sex "marriage" to the letter T in LGBT - Transgenderism.  While homosexuals comprise only a small percentage of the population, transgenders are less than .01% of the population.  To be a member of the "oppressed transgender minority," one need only to self-identify.  What follows is the "right" to enter the bathroom of your choice.  Any disagreement is considered discriminatory and bigotry.

Note that: 

• Two states have passed have passed religious freedom legislation only to have the legislation vetoed by their governors (Georgia, South Dakota). 
• The Federal Government has forced one school district to comply with transgender demands (Illinois).  This is just the start. 
• One state passed "religious freedom" legislation, then amended the bill into a "gay rights" law (Indiana). 
• One state has maintained its "bathroom bill" (North Carolina) but is now being threatened by the federal government with the defunding of several programs. 
• One city overturned its "bathroom bill" (Houston). 
• Only one state has enacted and maintained its "freedom of religion" bill (Mississippi). 

The following are the highlights of the transgender agenda.

Bruce Jenner:  Win for the Transgender Community

April 2015  Bruce Jenner, a 65 year old male who has been married 3 times and who has fathered 6 children, declares himself a woman.  Jenner, who won the decathlon Gold Medal in the 1976 Olympics, appeared on the cover of Vogue Magazine under the title "Call Me Caitlyn."

Outcome:  Jenner was praised for his "transition" and received ESPN's Arthur Ash Award for Courage. 

Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act,

Complete Turn-Around: Now a "gay rights" law

July 2015  Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act was legislation passed by the state legislature to allow Christians the "free exercise of religion" and to protect citizens against being "substantially burdened as a defense in legal proceedings."

Outcome:  After a horrendous outcry from national and international businesses and athletic organizations, the legislation was amended, making it an anti-discrimination law favoring the LGBT community.  In other words, a complete turnaround occurred from the law's original intent.

Houston Equal Rights Ordinance

Rejected by Voters After Being Labeled the "Bathroom Bill"

November 3, 2015  Dallas TX overwhelmingly rejected the city's ordinance allowing men in women's bathrooms (Houston Equal Rights Ordinance).  Houston's City Council passed the legislation spearheaded by lesbian Mayor Annise Parker.  The locals forced the City to place it on the ballet but only after a Texas Supreme Court mandate.

Outcome:  Win for the Community.  However, Houston is now being threatened by such efforts as a call to rescind the NFL Super Bowl which is scheduled to be played there in 2017. 

Palatine Township High School

Forced by the Federal Government to Accommodate a 12 year old

Boy in the Girl's Shower

December 3, 2015  Palatine Township High School, a Chicago School District, had a Civil Rights Discrimination lawsuit filed against it demanding that a 12 year old transgender boy be allowed in the girl's locker rooms.

Outcome:  Win for the Transgender

The Obama Administration, misrepresenting Title IX federal funding designed to insure the inclusion of girls in sports, interpreted the law as addressing gender discrimination and forced the school district to acquiesce.  Non-compliance would have resulted in the withdrawal of millions of federal dollars that fund athletic programs.  The school board had proposed a number of different measures as compromise solutions.  All were refused.  The boy is allowed in the girls' locker room despite overwhelming objection from the community.  In a school district of 12,000 students, the Obama administration has forced the accommodation of one very disturbed 12 year old boy.

New Mexico Legislation is Introduced to Protect Religious Freedom

January 2016  Religious Freedom Legislation was introduced to "prevent discriminatory action by a person or a government agency in response to a person's free exercise of religion." 

Outcome:  The legislation was vehemently attacked by Santa Fe's homosexual mayor, Javier Gonzales, and the house minority leader, Brian Egolf.  It was not placed on the legislative agenda and was not debated.

South Dakota's Bill Vetoed by Governor

March 1, 2016  The Governor of South Dakota, Dennis Daugaard, vetoed a bathroom bill passed by the Senate that would have required biologically-defined sex to determine bathrooms usage.

Outcome:  The governor, wishing to avoid an economic backlash, caved to the transgender agenda.

North Carolina Passes a "Bathroom Bill"

Disallowing Charlotte's Ordinance to Allow Transgenders in Bathrooms

On March 23, 2016 North Carolina's Governor Pat McCrory signed into law a "Bathroom Bill" that negates Charlotte's February 20, 2016, bill that would have allowed transgenders into women's bathrooms.

Outcome:  An enormous economic backlash has occurred with a reported 120 companies opposing the measure including PayPal, which cancelled a $3.6 million call center employing 400 people in Charlotte.  Popular rock star Bruce Springsteen announced he'd canceled a concert in the state.

Georgia's Governor Vetoes Legislature's "Religious Freedom"

March 28, 2016  Under tremendous economic pressure, Georgia's Governor Nathan Deal vetoed the state's "Religious Freedom" legislation.  The law would have protected pastors and religious nonprofits that didn't want to participate in same-sex marriage, while including modest protections for individuals and businesses.

Outcome:  The State Legislators are considering calling a special session to override the governor's veto.

Mississippi Allows Churches, Businesses to Decline Services that

Violate Religious Beliefs

April 5, 2016 Mississippi Governor Phil Bryant signed into law legislation that allows churches, religious charities and privately held businesses to decline services to people if doing so would violate their religious beliefs on marriage and gender.

Outcome:  The state's Attorney General has refused to defend the law, an impeachable offense.  The backlash has just begun.  

In addition to New Mexico, states that have considered legislation have been Arizona, Nevada, Tennessee and Wisconsin.

Please pray that the American people and especially the Christians will boldly stand up for public righteousness and for the preservation of our religious freedom.

FORGIVE your enemies.  LOVE your enemies. PRAY for your enemies.

Easter's blasts were planned to be much larger. At the entrance gate security guards caught one person who immediately let off his bomb. Three others escaped. The bombers did not get to the place where they wanted to be, where it would have been more populated.  Think what it would have been if four bombs had gone off. A friend shares, a nurse from our hospital and her baby and husband were at this park. He went to get tickets and was killed. 

Military commission:

A year and a half ago a large explosion took place in a military school in the north, killing many children of military personnel.  This was a terrible incident with the loss of life to many children.  Out of this came a serious determination of the government and military to go after terrorists in the Northwest part of the country.

After this Easter tragedy this week-  PRAISE the military now has set up a  "military commission for the Punjab."  This is to go after terrorists in the Punjab where 70% of the population of Pakistan lives. This is where the majority of the terrorist

organizations have originated and operated out of.

PRAY they might carry this out.  For a long time it has been obvious that they need to be more serious about the terrorist nests in the Punjab.

PRAY for the right strategy to carry this out. The military is doing this. The government is not included in this. PRAY there will not be a clash between the two.

................................................................................

Christ said.  FORGIVE  your enemies. LOVE your enemies. PRAY for your enemies. There is power in these three.

STORY -  A brother was in Pakistan last year for Easter. Shortly before that, two large terrorist attacks took place in Lahore and at the largest Christian settlement, Yohunabad in the city.  This brother arrived a couple days after this. A pastor and he literally forced their way into this area as people were fleeing this area. They almost got trampled. They went to a smaller church where they were to teach children how to pray.

Everything had been taken out of the church, a long hallway and an outside courtyard so more people could be seated. People were seated on the ground and it was packed with hundreds of people. Kids and parents who brought their kids. The Spirit of God was so present in a powerful way.  The meeting lasted from early afternoon to early the next morning. Hardly anyone moved. The brother ministering started by saying, "You do not expect me to say this but this is what God is telling me to say. Your friends and relatives have been killed by terrorists in this colony. God tells us, "to FORGIVE  our ENEMIES,  and to  LOVE THEM. "  

He told several instances of how terrorists had tried to kill him and how God had told him to

forgive them, and sometimes verbally to forgive them.  He said this is the hardest thing you can ever do but he was asking them to do exactly this.  There was absolute silence, and the brother thought everyone was going to walk out after stoning him.

Absolute silence for eternity.  Then God's Spirit descended as kids and then adults began to cry out in forgiveness. God was doing a MIRACLE, from a people whose culture is tied in with revenge. God was doing the miraculous. Then we began to teach on children in prayer.  They told stories of how God was using Pakistani children in prayer… 

After midnight they asked that we begin to PRAY for those who were sick. Forgiveness had taken place, people were praying from clean hearts.  The presence of God's spirit was very heavy.  People were healed and those who were processed by evil spirits were released from that bondage. Those from the majority community who were non-Christians first accepted Christ and then were released from Satan's demons.  When these nonbelievers were asked why they had accepted Christ they said because we saw people forgive one another and us and then we saw the power of Jesus, a God of love.

One woman in particular was the last to be brought because people said her demons are so strong and she is physically so strong no one could control her.  Though once a Christian she

said she had given herself over to the devil. She accepted the Lord. Now they turned to releasing her from her bondage.  It was like the Gerasenes demoniac, who was so strong he would break the chains that bound him.   As we began to pray, she fell to the floor screaming and cursing at us.  People had to help hold her.  Her strength was so great she was lifting the men up. They prayed for for peace to come over her, the devil was there to 'kill and destroy' this mighty warrior of the devil who has just deserted him. Prayer continued and she was slowly released from those demonic  spirits who bound her. She said,  ”When I was going through that time I could see and knew that Satan was trying to kill me. But at the same time I could see Jesus' love and that you loved me and were fighting for my life."

It is hard but we must learn to love our enemies. The power of God's love and prayer can turn those who hate God and us to the foot of the cross and Jesus.

Many of those who were healed and released that night like this women have now started prayer groups - because they saw the love of Jesus Christ.  Thank you, God, that you first loved us and for your power we see through prayer. 

Thank you for praying for Pakistan.

(From a Christian brother who loves Pakistan.)

Praise God for what He is doing in one of the most challenging national situations on earth! Let’s continue to pray for His people to arise in unity and love for one another and for their enemies so that Pakistan will be rid of its darkness and turn to Him who is the light of life.
