Introduction

2022 Prayer Vision

In January of every new year Faith Church in Summerville does a 21 days of Prayer and fasting. During the second day of prayer and fasting the Lord gave me a vision of a prayer war room. It was octagon-shaped with large windows on each of its 8 sides. Through each of these 8 windows, He showed me 8 primary things I needed to pray for, starting with the U.S. and the nation of Israel. He instructed me to "Pray for, bless, and do not curse the inhabitants of each country, territory, and region throughout the world."

Then in January 2024, day 15 of the 21 days of prayer and fasting at Faith Church in Summerville, the Lord emphatically reiterated to me, "Pray for, bless, and do not curse the inhabitants of each country, territory, and region throughout the world." (Romans 12:14)

I asked, "How do I bless wicked people doing horrifically wicked things like those who murdered so many innocent people in Israel on the 7th of October 2023?"

His answer: "Bless them with a release from the bondage of hatred. Bless them with an opportunity to hear and believe the truth of My Word concerning salvation through all that Christ Jesus accomplished for them at Calvary. Bless them with an endless capacity to love, forgive, and bless others."
