September 13 - 27, 2015

Joel 2:28 is being fulfilled at the end-time. God is pouring out the Holy Spirit to three generations - parents, youngsters and children. Psalms 8:3: "Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger."

Children are being raised to have intimacy with God, who love to worship God, pray and listen to God's voice. They become instruments of God and as the transformation agents for their family, church, city, country and nations. After the World Prayer Assembly in Jakarta, Indonesia in 2012. Jerusalem House of Prayer of All Nations Convocation Jerusalem and Watchman Tour of Israel began a children's prayer track where they are trained to have intimacy with God 24 hours per day and become watchmen with Harp and Bowl.

Children Prayer Track Leaders : Jerusalem House of Prayer for All Nations Convocation and Watchman Tour of Israel September 13 - September 27, 2015

Dear Children of the world,

We bring you warm greetings from Jerusalem, the City of the Great King!

For the last 4 years Tety Irwan has done an awesome job in coordinating the children's track from all nations and continents at our annual convocation and Watchmen's tour of Israel. Each year more children attend. We hope this year you could send at least a few children to represent your nation at the All Nations Convocation Jerusalem and Watchmen's tour of Israel. The lives of the children that are going to be here will never be the same.

Join with Tety and all of us this year in Jerusalem for an awesome download from heaven and life-changing experience together in the land of Jesus. 

Hope to see you this year in Jerusalem.

Shalom in Messiah's Love and Joy,

Tom Hess

Monday, 31 August thru Friday, 4 September 2015

Over recent years trumpets have been blown in many parts of our Continent as an act of obedience to the Lord. In the UK it started in Birmingham in response to the reading of the scriptures in Numbers 10 v9 which says, “When you go into battle in your own land against an enemy that is oppressing you, sound a blast on the trumpets. Then you will be remembered by the Lord your God and rescued from your enemies.” From that and other scriptures we see that the sounding of trumpets were for gathering the people, moving the people, calling the people to war and celebrating the feasts and all that God had done. As many of you know our brother Werner Woiwode from Switzerland, has not only blown the trumpet across Europe but in many other places around the world. In June 2014 we gathered in Macedonia and the Trumpet Call there encouraged our brothers and sisters across the Balkan nations and southern Europe.

Following recent Skype calls and a gathering of prayer leaders in Brussels, we believe it is right to go to Timisoara, Romania and blow the trumpet for the whole of our Continent. This invitation is to you, your church, your prayer ministry, your mission agency to come and join us in sounding the trumpet again over the Continent of Europe.

Here is the website where you can get more information and register to take part

http://europeantrumpetcall.org

Our friends at The Christian Centre Timisoara/Agape Church have kindly made the church available for the week. We shall gather from 31 August early evening through to 4 September where for four days we shall have continuous prayer, worship, reading of scripture and declaration of the truth of God’s word and the frequent sounding of the trumpets.

There is accommodation nearby where you can stay. The lulius shopping Mall is very near the church with restaurants and coffee shops. There will be a charge of 10 Euros per person to go towards Trumpet Call Timisoara expenses. There will be full details and booking facilities on a Trumpet Call website soon but we were keen for you to get these dates in your diary.

To help in your planning suggest you visit the web site of the International Airport of Timisoara at http://www.aerotim.ro/index.php?lang=en from here it is only a short ride to the Christian Centre.

We would appreciate your help in making this known across your networks; we would love to see as many nations represented as possible. This will be an unique time since friends from the Ends of the World will join us to welcome the King of Glory in our continent.

May God continue to bless you in all He does through you

UK Trumpet Call National Day of Prayer, July 4- Ian Cole reported that over 2000 from every area of Britain took part and it was a time of great blessing and encouragement as they focused on His supremacy, the Cross of Christ with prayer leaders from other parts of Europe as well. These prayer leaders also had a very positive time planning the European Trumpet Call event that will happen in Romania, Aug 31-Sept 4. There are huge issues now like fear of terrorist attacks, financial uncertainty with the Greece and Eurozone, migrants pouring in from North Africa and the Middle East, etc. In spite of this, some of us believe that the Lord is going to send revival on this region as He did in the 1600s and 1700s. May it be so!

Please pray for the outpouring of the Spirit upon the UK and Europe and for new movements of revival to arise among the younger generation especially.

International Children's Intercessors Conference (Royal Kids), August 6-9, Chennai, India- some difficulties have been caused by local people so the event will be limited in size with not as many internationals taking part.

The Kumba Mela, starting July 15 for two months. It is expected to draw up to 65 million Hindus. The intercessors prayed at the spot in Nasik near Mumbai for 100 hours. Pray that it will be a breakthrough for the Lord and His mission among them and for those who are seeking to reach the pilgrims with the Gospel.

Global Issachar Group, South Asia Region, August 11-14, Colombo, Sri Lanka- about 35 leaders are registered to take part from the region and outside. The focus of the consultation will be on understanding and overcoming spiritual darkness in the region. Please pray for this gathering and the participants for His guidance, protection and anointing as we meet and that our findings will result in breakthroughs for the Gospel in South Asia.

National and International Security Prayer Initiative during the coming 18 months and for prayer network leaders, October 18-20, Colorado Springs, USA -increasing numbers of intercessors in the USA feel disquiet about national security so there are national conference calls scheduled (see above article). This gathering for prayer network leaders will be to seek God's strategy for national spiritual preparedness. We hope to include Mexican and Canadian leaders also. Pray with us for the national and international security of our world and for clarity as to how the prayer movement should best respond.

UPrising: World Youth Prayer Assembly youth planning team with IPC Children in Prayer team, November 2-6/7, Manila, Philippines- Good progress is being made and you can see the new website and videos at www.unitedprayerrising.com. Please pray for Jerome Ocampo, the convener, and the youth planning team as they continue to make arrangements. Pray also for the major financial provision that will be needed.

6 Remarkable development and opportunity for prayer ministry in North Korea this September- pray for those who will be leading a large team to bring His blessing to this troubled and oppressed land and people.

Thank  you  so  much  for  the  prayer- backing  during  the  time  in  Iraq. As  I  shared  with  some  of  you,  the  bomb blasts  and  suicide  bombings in Baghdad have  been  reduced  from   20 to 30 per day  in  2014   to  3 to 5  a  month now. In Erbil,  there have been no  reports  of  explosions  since  a  long  time.

The prayer initiative meetings  finished  well  with  an  amazing  prophetic  time  on  the 16th  morning  and  repentance  and spiritual warfare  on  the  16th  night. One  evening  a  phone call  came  from  10  young  Kurds  who  had an  encounter  with  Jesus  and  believed  in  HIM. The  reports  from  participants  about  the  harvest  that  has  started  among internally displaced people  and  Muslim - IDPs   as  well  as  Syrian  refugees  have  been  amazing. A  team  from  MHOP   has  gone   regularly  to  a  camp  of  Muslim  refugees and  found  so  many  people  who  had  a  vision  of  Jesus. Those  from  Catholic / Chaldean / Syrian / Orthodox / Armenian / Assyrian  background IDPs  are  totally  open  as  well  to  the  Gospel  and  are  coming  to  faith. It's  an  ocean  of  people  in  endless  refugee - camps  who  are  just  waiting  for someone  to  bring  them  Jesus  in  the  midst  of  their  sufferings.

During  a  meeting  of  Muslim background believers,  leaders  came  to  the  conclusion  that  there  are  more  MBBs   now  in the  Middle  East / North Africa  than  all  other  believers  together. We  had  to  acknowledge  that  ISIS  has  driven  the  multitudes  into  the  arms  of  Christ.

The sad part:  from  approximately  12  churches   in  Erbil  there  are  no  reports  of  any  unity, even  between  two  churches  and  extremely  little  prayer. In  Baghdad  as  well,  very  sad  to  find a   total  lack  of  revelation  about  the  need  of  unity  and  very  little  prayer. The  good  thing  is  that  Muslim background leaders  are  in  unity!!!!

So  God's  own  arm  is  bringing  Him  victory!   Isa.  59: 16

(From a Colleague in the prayer movement who facilitated times of prayer training for the believers in Iraq earlier this month)

 

Please pray for His unity among all who follow Christ in Iraq, that their hearts, especially of pastors and leaders would be softened and that they would begin to stand together in prayer for their nation and the driving out of ISIS. Pray too for those who were trained that they will put it into effect in their lives and that they will be used of the Lord to train and encourage others so that a strong, united prayer movement can arise in this much besieged and divided nation. Also, pray that these vast millions of Iraqi and Syrian refugees will be able to hear the Gospel with many of them coming to know the Lord who cares for them.

Videos discussing use of fetal tissue in research stir antiabortion activists' hopes of ban on federal funding for organization

Wall Street Journal, July 23, 2015 

"Videos of Planned Parenthood staffers discussing how they gather fetal tissue during abortions for use in medical research are stirring antiabortion activists' hopes of converting the controversy into a ban on federal funding for the organization. Cutting off federal funds for Planned Parenthood has emerged as one of the short-term moves that activists believe is most achievable in the wake of the release of two videos in the past two weeks. 

Some lawmakers preparing to debate appropriations bills cite the videos as a reason to cut off the approximately $500 million a year in federal funds Planned Parenthood gets for providing care to Medicaid beneficiaries, contraception through family planning programs and for helping people sign up for insurance under the 2010 federal health law. Long-standing restrictions bar the federal government from paying for abortions in most cases.

A new surreptitiously recorded video released by activists this week shows a Planned Parenthood official bluntly describing abortion procedures, and whether they could be adapted to preserve tissue that could be provided to researchers...

Kristan Hawkins, president of the Students for Life of America antiabortion group, said younger activists began In Planned Parenthood's most recent annual report covering the 12 months through June 30, 2014, federal and state grants and reimbursements of around $528.4 million were the organization's single largest source of income, totaling 41% of its revenue.The majority of its funds came from a combination of other payments for services, along with private contributions and bequests.

Ten states have barred state funding of Planned Parenthood clinics for family planning services, including Texas while GOP presidential contender Rick Perry was governor and Wisconsin under rival GOP contender and current Gov. Scott Walker.

In its annual report, Planned Parenthood said its affiliates performed 327,653 abortions. In recent years, about one million abortions have been carried out annually in the U.S.

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton defended Planned Parenthood on Thursday, saying that the organization had apologized for one employee's "insensitivity," and that its work is important...

 "Listen, I've seen these two videos. They're gruesome and I think they're awful," Mr. Boehner told reporters. "That's why the Energy and Commerce Committee and Judiciary Committee are doing an investigation. I expect that we will have hearings, and the more we learn, the more it will educate our decisions in the future."

Planned Parenthood also reported providing 4,470,597 tests for sexually transmitted diseases, 3,577,348 appointments to provide contraception, including emergency contraception, and 935,573 appointments for cancer screening including pap tests, HPV vaccinations and breast exams.

Bans on taxpayer funding for abortion enjoy widespread support from voters, even among some of those who believe abortion should be legal in at least some circumstances. But lawmakers have had limited success in previous efforts to curb funds to Planned Parenthood for other services.

In 2011, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives wanted to disqualify Planned Parenthood affiliates from receiving any federal funds for family planning or as Medicaid reimbursements. A face-off with the then-Democratic-controlled Senate and White House nearly shut down the government, but ended with the House trimming funds for family planning and allowing Planned Parenthood to remain a participant in Medicaid.

Pray for a cut-off of government funding for Planned Parenthood which exists mainly to abort children and seeks to profit from selling their body parts. This is Nazi-like behavior that is being sanitized with the rationale that it is "for the benefit of medical science". May this cause a great outrage across the USA. Please pray also for the shutting down of this corrupt and deceitful organization that trafficks in the death of precious human beings God has knit together in their mother's womb.

The African Union Mission in Somalia, better known as AMISOM, has launched a renewed offensive against al Shabaab. Despite achieving major successes with the liberation of Mogadishu in August 2011 and Kismayo in September 2012, the

Somali military and AMISOM failed to eradicate the jihadist militant organization. Sustained ground operations and the targeted killings of its leaders by U.S. airstrikes damaged the group, but al Shabaab is still dangerous. As well as conducting direct attacks, the group routinely interdicts the movement and supply lines of African Union forces with guerrilla-style operations. The African Union is drawing on new resources and capabilities in an attempt to defeat al Shabaab, or at least render the organization ineffective.

The fight will not be easy, however. AMISOM forces have suffered setbacks in the past, being forced to conduct tactical withdrawals from untenable positions in the face of al Shabaab attempts to dislodge them. A June 26 attack on an African Union base in the village of Lego inflicted a notable defeat on AMISOM forces, highlighting a major problem facing African Union forces as they expand their area of operations. While typically able to defeat al Shabaab in conventional head-on battles, AMISOM forces become overstretched as they project into the expansive reaches of southern Somalia. They lack the necessary resources to secure lines of communication over land and, as a result, frequently have to withdraw from newly liberated areas to protect their own personnel.

The nature of AMISOM's limitations is not lost on military commanders. In an attempt to prevent further embarrassments, major efforts to stabilize the situation are underway. The most immediate is the launch of a major offensive against known al Shabaab strongholds. Known as "Operation Jubba Corridor," separate maneuver elements converged on the city of Baardheere on July 22, successfully routing its militant defenders. Baardheere had been under al Shabaab control for six years and has served as a refuge in the fertile valley region.

Even though the Baardheere offensive was successful, it will not necessarily prevent continued al Shabaab operations. The militant group has already been forced to stop depending on territorial control; its guerrilla and terrorist attacks have become its most potent tool against African Union forces. Denying al Shabaab refuge in the Juba valley will contribute to the gradual decline of the militants' capabilities. The more territory AMISOM forces liberate, however, the more resources they will require to patrol and secure those areas. That said a weakened al Shabaab poses less of a threat to extended positions than before.

Please pray for the African Union forces to prevail over the Islamic terrorist al Shabaab group that has caused so much destruction and death in East Africa. Pray for wise strategy, determination and the resources the AU needs to finish this campaign and clear the region of this scourge.

Thank you so much for your regular prayer and support for Nepal, we appreciate you from our heart.

1. Please pray for the new constitution of Nepal that the Hindu majority has been asking for the Hindu Kingdom of Nepal.
They want to remove it as a secular country, and in the last few weeks that constitution draft has been distributed and they are getting suggestions from people. Some people are announcing: "Christians should remove from Nepal". Also, an  opposition political party has stirring up agitation in Nepal. Today, this covered the whole of
Nepal.

Please pray with us that God would bring about a good, fair constitution in Nepal as His will.

2. Pray for earthquake victims' rehabilitation.

Praise the Lord that God has been sending many more prayer warriors to the House of Prayer these days.

Thank you and may the Lord bless you,

Govinda and Sujita

2 Chronicles 20- Principles of Praying for a Nation in Crisis

Wednesdays, 1 pm ET, noon CT, 11 am MT and 10 am  PT: 712-432-0075, 34961322#

1. August 5-- Call Host: Sue Rowe

Let our sense of alarm drive us to seek the Lord and His perspective on the crisis we are in (2 Chron. 20:3) Jehoshaphat did not seek the counsel of others first but God's. Let's humbly seek help from the Lord for His guidance as to how we should pray and act.

2. August 12-- Call Host: Lisa Crump

Fast corporately and unite with others in prayer (2Chron. 20:3) He proclaimed a fast for all Judah and the people came together to seek the Lord's help. All prayer networks and movements in the USA need to come together to pray and fast for the nation and its deliverance for breakthrough to come.

3. August 19-- Call Host: John Robb

Acknowledge and declare God's sovereign rule and power, remembering His past deeds (2 Chron. 20:6-7) Let's reflect on who God is- that He is incomprehensibly great, much greater that His creation of hundreds of billions of stars- and that He has intervened throughout history when His people have called on Him for deliverance.

4. August 26-- Call Host: Dai Sup Han

Claim His promises (2 Chron. 20:9). Jehoshaphat refers to God's promise to King Solomon in 2 Chron. 7:14. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Let's claim the rich promises of Scripture that He brings to our hearts and minds for a divine reversal for the USA.

5. Sept 2-- Call Host: Dave Kubal

Describe situation of concern, asking for His intervention and deliverance humbly and dependently (2 Chron. 20:10-12). Let's bring the actual facts of the situation to God in prayer, not trying to save ourselves but placing our focus on Him in complete dependence. 

6.  Sept 9-- Call Host: Wesley Tullis

Involve the youth and children (2 Chron. 20:13). Children and youth are close to the Kingdom and often have a simple faith that makes them powerful intercessors. Let's share the critical situation our nation is in with them, asking that they join us in intercession over the coming months. Let us also learn to pray like children ourselves, trusting God in new and stretching ways!

7. Sept 16-- Call Host, Dave Butts

Wait for prophetic counsel and direction, letting God give us His strategy of prayer and action (2 Chron. 20:14,16). Jahaziel, a Levite from priestly class, therefore, an intercessor. As in the New Testament, all believers are now a "royal priesthood". We can also prophesy (cf. I Cor. 14 where God's people prophesied one by one and participants, even unbelievers, proclaimed that "God is really among you!" Let's get in sync with the Lord and speak out what He is putting on our hearts as far as His strategy for handling our nation's crisis. E.g. Joshua or David who sought God and got His unique strategies in battle. George Washington Carver who sought God for revelatory understanding and inventions resulting in more than 100 uses of the peanut. What is the Lord saying to us regarding what our corporate strategy as prayer leaders and intercessors ought to be?

8. Sept 23-- Call Host: John Robb

Take up our positions in faith and stand firm to see His deliverance, not being afraid or discouraged because the battle is ultimately God's (2 Chron. 20:15, 17). We fear or get downcast when we fail to see that the Lord is with us and is going to handle our battles for us in His own time and manner. Elisha asked the Lord to open the eyes of his servant to see that more with were him than were with their enemy. So we need to see things from His perspective, stand strong, and not be afraid.

9. Sept 30-- Call Host: Kay Horner

Worship and praise God in humble expectation v.18-19. Some bowed down and others stood up and praised God with a loud voice (the Pentecostals of the Old Testament!) We all have our unique and different styles and ways to worship and praise the Lord, but the main thing is to do so with all our hearts, celebrating His goodness and releasing our faith in Him together.

10. Oct 7-- Call Host: Dallas Eggemeyer

Implement the strategies of action God gives with praise and thanksgiving, realizing that faith-filled praise throws the evil one and his subjects into confusion and defeat (2 Chron. 20:21-24). "As they began to sing and praise, the Lord set ambushes" against Judah's enemies. Psalm 149 states that the praise of God in our mouths binds the kings with fetters and is the glory of all His saints. This pertains also to ruling principalities under the control of the prince of this world. We have been given spiritual weapons with divine power to destroy strongholds (2 Cor.10:4) "Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven" Jesus promised us (Mt. 28:18) Our real struggle is not against flesh and blood but against these powers of spiritual evil. Let's use the weapons He has given us so that powers of darkness that intend harm to our country through animating our human enemies (ISIS, Al Qaeda, Iran, North Korea and possibly even China and Russia) will be bound and overthrown!

11. Oct 14-- Call Host: Sara Ballenger

Exercising the principles of 2 Chronicles 20 when we face overwhelming difficulties will result in great victory, plunder, joy and peace (2 Chron. 20:25-29). God's people went from likely national disaster to a divine turnaround that gave them not only deliverance from their enemies but resulted in huge, unforeseen abundance of great value to the nation and its people. Let's trust God together that the Lord will use this current national distress for ultimate good for the USA and that peace and rejoicing will once again characterize our land.

Monday, 03 August 2015 08:27

Last week, 57 participants, mainly prayer network leaders from across the USA and one from Canada came on during two conference calls and some during a face to face meeting to share their sense of what the Lord is saying to us at this time of heightened concern for our nation's security. Many of their comments seemed to converge around similar foci, which have been included in the list below.

If you did not have a chance to join us on either call and would like to comment, please respond with your own sense of what God is saying to the prayer movement at this time about the future of America with regard to both its security and destiny.

Here is a condensation of the main comments that were made and we prayed accordingly and will continue to do so:

Preparation- prepare, prepare, prepare for what is to come. Be on the wall for the USA at this hour!

Rebuild the wall of prayer like Nehemiah and defend the nation. Neh. 4:4 "Remember the Lord and fight for your brethren." Be alert!

Strategize- develop a nation-wide strategy. Lay down individual things in order to come together as His sons and daughters with a Kingdom perspective for the nation.

Connect across the country as a network of united prayer. The power of unity even among a remnant can be used by God wonderfully. We need a new level of unity since the "generals of prayer" in the USA not united. Pride and ego need to be laid aside and let's deal with unforgiveness and fear that keep us apart.

Press in for an outpouring of the Spirit through worship and praise. The Lord inhabits praise.

Act with urgency to prepare and stand, simplify our lives.

Don't give way to just reactionary prayer. Anticipate what the devil will do to stay one step ahead. Clearly communicate and keep focused on what God wants us to pray so we are not reactive, but proactive, praying from a posture of humility.

Practice strategic repentance. Repent as part of strategy as Watchmen on the Wall. The church has lost spiritual authority because of sin. 2 Chron 7: 13-14. Need for strategic repentance to release our authority and restore justice in midst of growing lawlessness.

Be overcomers in spite of the storm. The storm has already come and we are in it- our three branches of government in some ways have collapsed in the face of political correctness already, and we are living in occupied country. However, in Christ we will not give up. Be overcomers and look for the harvest that is coming!

Become liberators. Need to use a "spiritual bomb" as in Esther--three days of prayer and fasting- to wake up the Church and cause the enemy to surrender. Sustained, united prayer will be used of God to achieve this.

Respect and honor one another. Learn to respect all groups of praying believers for their part so the whole process can happen through new honor, new respect for each other. Harness the prophetic dreamers and their dreams.

Cultivate corporate unity because we Americans are very individualistic and not as strong as other national cultures on doing things together well. In order to achieve that, let's pray together more often. Hold prayer conference calls with a different leader each week.

Use proven Biblical principles to achieve breakthrough. For example, utilize the principles of achieving spiritual breakthrough from 2 Chronicles 20. Someone counted 17 different ones! Also, two participants brought up the same passage unknown to each other.

Learn from previous revivals and prayer movements- past intercessors were intense and didn't quit. They pressed in until the Spirit fell upon their cities and the nation.

Respect and partner with 1st Nations prayer leaders. They are the spiritual gatekeepers to the USA and are crucial for the deliverance and healing process. Some good reconciliation has happened so far, but it has not gone deep enough due to portals of defilement due to corporate sin, so the enemy still claims territory. Humility and grace to connect with one another frees God to do so much. First Nations have special authority with both government and church that needs to be called upon.

Stand in hope and consecration where we are in our own family, community, taking responsibility for consecrating ourselves to God. Pray with hope, not in negative terms so that average people will be encouraged and empowered to pray also.

Link up with governmental officials- 770 governmental leaders are connecting already through Pray USA.

Learn more about and pray about Islam- our nation's conflict with Islamic radicalism has been called the "last battle" and we need to know more this antagonist to the nation and its future. In such a battle, prayer is the power of life and death.

Educate leaders and churches about the power of prayer. There is little understanding in the American church of the supernatural, transformational power of prayer and the priestly role of believers as intercessors. We need to educate and communicate the theology and rationale of prayer to pastors and others who still don't understand or practice it effectively.

Include children and youth as partners in prayer.

God responds to their prayers and they have much to teach us in their simple faith!

 

A number of national security calls are being planned for the next three months. Please join with us to pray for the USA.  More information is in the next article below.

William Kristol

From Fait Non-Accompli AUG 3, 2015, VOL. 20, NO. 44 * BY William Kristol 

"The Iran deal turns out to be so no good, so very bad, so awfully ugly, that there is a chance-an outside chance-that a congressional process accepted by the [U.S.] administration because it seemed to virtually guarantee the deal's survival might actually kill it instead.

The administration is pulling out all the stops. The left is mobilizing. Pressure is being applied. But what's striking is how many congressional Democrats are balking. Serious Democrats look at the deal-at its failure to stop Iran's nuclear program, at the weak verification provisions, at the precipitous and massive sanctions relief-and can't quite believe the horror the administration is asking them to approve.

The public can't quite believe it either. The Pew poll this week had those Americans who knew something about the deal-a strikingly high 79 percent of the public-disapproving 48 to 38 percent. When has this happened before? A president signs a deal that purports to limit arms and reduce the risks of war, he makes his case to the American people against scattered voices of criticism and dissent-and he doesn't even start out ahead. A Washington Post poll that framed the deal in a way more favorable to the administration had only 56 percent approval. Most analysts experienced in these kinds of fights expected the deal to start out way ahead in public opinion, and then perhaps face some erosion as the debate proceeded. Instead, opponents are at least even at the start. And, by the way, the critics are so far handily winning the debate on the merits.

Still, is it really possible that over a dozen Senate Democrats and almost 50 House Democrats will defect from the president and vote both to disapprove and then to override his veto? Yes. It's possible, if not yet likely. And the possibility will grow if opponents energetically press their case. They will need to explain, among other things, that the sanctions regime isn't doomed if the deal is defeated. It is true that some damage will have been done by the United Nations action. But a Congress that insists on retaining U.S. sanctions will leave the next president-whether a Democrat or a Republican-with a chance to marshal the international community to continue the pressure on Iran and perhaps to negotiate a better deal.

Meanwhile, what about that U.N. vote? Congress owes it to the American people to disapprove the deal because it is bad and dangerous, but also precisely to establish the principle that the American people are the masters of American foreign policy, not the United Nations."

Please pray that the U.S. Congress will be able to overturn the recent nuclear deal if it will endanger the Middle East nations along with other countries by giving Iran, the world's leading sponsor of terrorism, over 100 billion in sanctions relief as well as a path to the development and deployment of nuclear weapons. This is a crucial matter of international security.
