There is Power in Simple Faith!
His Banner Over You Is Love!

September 3, 2008

Dear Friends, Intercessors and Zion Aligned:

I am in Atlanta praying for each of you and declaring that you will WATCH FOR AMBUSHES along your path (Ezra 8).

I hear the Lord saying, “Stop and watch. Do not be hasty today. Watch for three days and proceed with caution. There is a divine protection that I am positioning in place over your head as you move deeper into My plan. There is a divine alignment for war that I AM orchestrating for you to advance into the greater promise that lies before you. Keep an eye open for the enemy who would love to trick you into stopping the forward progression that I have developed in your life this season! Some have been waylaid and others stopped completely. I must get many moving again. I need you not to lose momentum this hour; advance, cautiously, but keep advancing. You are close to completion!”

The Fire of God was so present last Sunday at Glory of Zion. I am looking forward to this Sunday.  We will begin at 9 AM with “The Power of Lift.”  This is a dynamic time when we ascend in worship and descend in war.  Rebekah Pierce Faubion will be ministering on Childlike Faith Produces Power”.  During our “Power of Use” service, we will move back into worship followed by Robert Heidler teaching on “His Banner Over Me is Love: Jehovah Nissi Rising Up!”

Firstfruits Webcast REPLAY

September Issachar School Course:   (September 29)
We just completed our course on Go Up to the High Places:  The Importance of Prayer Journeys!    This was one of the most interesting classes we’ve offered, with Robert & Linda Heidler, Anne Tate, Diane Buker, and John & Sheryl Price joining me as instructors.  Each brought unique insights on why we do prayer journeys and the benefits of prayer walking.  DVDs and CDs will soon be available for purchase for $99 by calling (888) 965-1099.

On Monday, September 29 we will host another unique Issachar School Course: Becoming Harvest Watchmen  - Understanding and Prevailing in the Prayer Watch.  I know many of you are responding to the call to pray during the Midnight Watch this month.  Robert Heidler and I will be teaching on how to understand the prayer watches as well as learn to break through in each of the four night watches.  The teaching aspect will be from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM (with a lunch break).  Then beginning that evening, we will actually have teams in place to lead each of the prayer watches.  Students will then select one or more watches to join as part of their course credit.  For more information on this program, or to register for on-site attendance, please call 1-888-965-1099 or go to www.gloryofzion.org/issachar.   If you have a high-speed Internet connection and would like to take this live, online course, please purchase your e-ticket through the MP3 store.

Blessings,

The Burning Bush Pendant (now available in sterling silver with rhodium finish)


 

When God came down to deliver His people at Passover He began by revealing His glory to Moses in the Burning Bush. The burning bush is a picture of the heavenly Menorah, the 7-fold Spirit of God, which burns before the Lord in the heavenly tabernacle (Rev. 4:5). At Pentecost, God again revealed His glory to change the course of history. When the tongues of fire came upon the Church at Pentecost, we became the "burning bush" to reveal God's glory in the earth. 2 Cor. 4:7 says, "We hold this treasure in earthen vessels that the surpassing greatness of the power may be seen to be of Him." God wants us to receive His fire and display His glory in the earth!  Choose from three sizes: Small Pendant with 18 inch chain ($20), Large Pendant with 18-inch chain ($25) or Large Pendant with 24-inch chain, also suitable for men ($25).


Tallit Special – any one for $50!


A tallit (tallith), better known as a prayer shawl, represents a unique type of “covering.”  When the woman with the issue of blood pressed through (Mt. 9), she touched the corner of Jesus’ tallit.  All through the Word of God, there were unique mantles that carried authority. We believe this is a season of understanding “covering” and “authority.” 

We have designed three unique tallits.  One has to do with the Wing of God, and is inspired by Psalm 91:4, “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge.”  Another is the Watchman tallit.  This depicts the Wing of God over Jerusalem, representing the call of the watchman.  Both of these tallits are linked with the night prayer watches.  The third is called our Alpha Omega tallit which represent the almond tree (the first blossom that comes forth in Israel), and then the pomegranate, the fruit that comes forth during Rosh Hashanah (or the Head of the Year).  This is connected by an olive branch, representing the One New Man.  All tallits are 100% silk with hand-knotted fringe.  Dimensions: 20” x 65”  Special price: $50.

First Fruits Conference: Taking the Night


Dreams and visions are one of the primary ways that God has always used to communicate with His people.  However, they are often misunderstood, dismissed, or ignored.  All dreams have some level of significance in our lives, and it is important to invite the Lord into the process of determining what the level of significance of each dream may be.  To block this release of revelation, the enemy tries to control and direct the night season.  However, this is a time that the Body of Christ is rising up to watch in a new way. 

The Taking the Night: Dreams, Visions and the Night Watches Conference will help you reorder your day to learn the importance and power in receiving revelation from the Lord in the night season. This 7-CD set includes messages from Jane Hamon, Barbie Breathitt, Robert Heidler and Chuck D. Pierce on the significance of dreams, the power of symbols, why God uses mysteries to communicate revelation, types of dreams, and what to do with “bad” dreams.  Also included is revelation from Chuck Pierce on the monthly blessing of the Hebrew month Av as well as Eitan Shishkoff’s message on the mystery of the “olive tree” and Jew and Gentile coming together. ($35)
