"We Love New York!" Urgent Prayer Points For New York
We are all heart-broken this week in what has just taken place in New York City, as innocent men, women and children were killed and injured in a recent terrorist attack. I always, always appreciate Mike and Cindy Jacobs calling the Church Body into prayer, especially when urgent prayer is needed from us. (Photo: Steve Shultz) Mighty prayer warriors, please read this prayer bulletin by the Jacobs' with prayer points for us to be interceding in. The enemy would like us to cower into "fear" but God wants us to rise in faith and pray for the great city and state of New York! Thank you and God bless you in your prayers! Steve Shultz, Founder and Publisher ************************************* "We Love New York! Urgent Prayer Points For New York"
Mike and Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX Tragedy in New York City In the afternoon of October 31st, an Islamic man rented a truck from Home Depot and proceeded to lower Manhattan. He purposely ran over bikers and pedestrians in a bike lane for eight city blocks before plowing into a school bus. He then ran out of the truck shooting a BB gun and a paint-ball gun, until he was shot by police. He survived, but eight people he hit with his vehicle succumbed to their injuries. Some were killed immediately. Eleven more remain hospitalized with serious injuries. Several children with special needs were in the school bus that eventually stopped his rampage. Imagine how frightened these children and their parents were. Sayfullo Saipov, 29, from Uzbekistan, was the driver of the truck. He was reported to be unremorseful in court on Thursday. It is reported that he planned the attack for a year and identifies as an ISIS terrorist. He is a married father of three and is in the United States on a Diversity Visa.
This attack in New York was also an attack against our nation's spiritual purpose of reflecting the beauty of Christ's Bride—from every nation, tongue, and tribe. New York City is what most people all over the globe think of when they think of America. Finally, the circumstances of this situation leave a feeling that fear has deepened across New York and the nation. There is a caution from the Holy Spirit to be careful how we intercede, so that we are not joining in a demonic plan to increase fear in the nation. We should rather be defusing it and bringing peace and truth into the atmosphere. Join Us in Prayer: • Intercede for the families and friends of those killed—husbands, fathers, sons, daughter, and friends. Pray for comfort and that they would look for, and find, God in their pain and not pull away from Him. • Pray that the Lord completely heals the bodies and minds of those wounded, together with their families'. • Ask Jesus to minister in a very special way to the precious children with special needs, their families, and their bus driver. Pray against trauma and fear. Command the enemy to stop attacking their minds and dreams. Pray they would experience Christ's love for them in tangible ways. • Ask the Lord for justice to be done in this case. Pray that Sayfullo Saipov and his family would be introduced to Jesus and have an opportunity for salvation through Him, so that they can know Sayfullo was deceived by a false god's direction. • People have mantles of destiny. Nations do, as well. The United States has a "melting pot" mantle. That means we are to show forth the beauty of the diversity of the Bride of Christ. New York City reflects this better than any other American city. Pray that this terror situation does not divide people, especially the Church, over culture, color, language, and religion. We are not to hate people groups because of what one person (or 10 people) of that group may do. Pray that the Church would continue to pray that the United States will be "from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes" (Revelation 7:9; NASB). • Satan is behind the scenes deceiving, stealing, and killing. He wants to instill fear. The Ekklesia must resist this. Intercede for Believers to be light in the darkness, purveyors of truth where there are lies, and those bringing peace into the midst of chaos. Identificationally repent for Christians who are joining in the fear-filled fray and inadvertently speaking curses into the atmosphere. Declare the Word of God and display Him in the earth. (Can you see Jesus getting caught up in a whirlwind of emotion?) Let Holy Spirit control your mind, will, emotions, conversations, and prayer direction. "My prayer for you is that you will overflow more and more with love for others, and at the same time keep on growing in spiritual knowledge and insight, for I want you always to see clearly the difference between right and wrong, and to be inwardly clean, no one being able to criticize you from now until our Lord returns. May you always be doing those good, kind things that show you are a child of God, for this will bring much praise and glory to the Lord." (Philippians 1:9-11; TLB) May God's grace abound, Mike and Cindy Jacobs Mike and Cindy Jacobs co-founded Generals International in 1985. Mike and Cindy co-host a weekly television program called God Knows that airs in more than 200 nations. Mike and Cindy also provide leadership for the Reformation Prayer Network (RPN), an organization with representatives in each of the fifty United States, working to support and uphold Biblical values through prayer and local action. Cindy is a respected prophet who travels the world, ministering not only to crowds of people but to heads of nations. Mike and Cindy love to travel and speak, but perhaps their favorite past time is spending time with their children, along with their six adorable grandchildren. The Jacobs make their home just outside of Dallas.
