Intro: I love the leadership of God! This week He gave an unexpected dream to Christy Johnston, a friend, author, prophetic teacher, and one of America's best intercessors (even though she's an Aussie!).

Dreams are not new to Christy. But few dreams have the potential to catalyze the faith of countless intercessors like this one does. We know that the prayer of faith can change anything—even history. America needs this right now. Israel needs it. And so do the nations of the earth. So, if this is the only Briefing you read this year, read this one. Then, let's pray!

90 Days

On August 7th, our friend Christy Johnston had an urgent dream in which she saw herself calling for 90 days of prayer leading up to the U.S. elections.

She knew it was a clarion call from Heaven that went far beyond the reach of her own sphere of influence.

Christy then saw a tremendous response from the Ekklesia. It was a 2 Chronicles 7:14 moment.

Hundreds of thousands of people from every nation were falling on their knees and crying out for the United States of America.

She also saw hordes of demonic beings that looked like orcs from The Lord of the Rings movies. As she watched in the dream, their hands suddenly became shackled and their plans were interrupted by the power of intercession from the people of God.

Christy understood that this dream was not just about America, but about the nations of the earth.

Meanwhile, there is a demonic agenda in the United States that must be stopped.

When she woke from the dream, Christy contacted Lou Engle.

They did the math to find out when 90 days before the elections (on November 5th) would be. It turned out to be this past Wednesday, August 7th, the very day she had the dream!

Christy and Lou acted quickly to release a live Instagram message to herald this call to prayer.

We urge you to watch it and share it far and wide. But if all else fails, just DO THE DREAM with us and pray each day for 90 days!

In the video, Lou explains how Psalm 149 is key to understanding the dream. The psalmist wrote:

"Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand, to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples; to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; to execute on them the written judgment—this honor have all His saints. Praise the LORD!" (Psalm 149:6–9)

Lou believes that great principalities and powers are in a cosmic conflict over the elections and over Israel right now.

Lou mentioned Derek Prince's book, Shaping History through Prayer and Fasting, and how it tells of how "governments are shifted in prayer and fasting, as it was in the days of Daniel and as in the days of Esther."

Lou went on to say, "I believe right now God is saying, urgently, put high praises of God in your mouth. Carry it to your beds. Pray on your beds and declare the binding of kings and nobles, and the shackling of the principalities and powers, so God can actually establish His purposes" (both now and in these elections).

Christy and Lou addressed the principalities associated with the ancient goddess Ishtar, and the gods Molech and Baal, as mentioned in Jonathan Cahn's book, The Return of the Gods.

The premise of the book is that when America removed God from the public sector in the 60s, and in the 70s, then demons came back seven times worse to repossess the nation.

Ishtar was the goddess of sexuality, homosexuality, prostitution, and transgenderism.

Lou acknowledged that the influence of this unseen entity is being manifest on the ground level in our nation as never before. Even certain elements of the Olympic ceremony exemplified her perversions.

Lou also emphasized that when those in positions of authority make decrees and agreements with wickedness, or with righteousness, it opens portals in the heavenly realms—whether for evil or for good.

For example, he explained that when the president awarded a transgender woman as "Woman of the Year," he was opening a portal for transgender ideologies and spirits to come in and affect our nation.

Knowing what a controversial topic this is, Lou said, "I would rather be controversial than to be halting between two opinions and missing the very moment that the Elijahs of God, and the Esthers of God, are being called into."

Would you join us in these 90 days of intercession by setting your alarm to pray at either 4:14 AM or 4:14 PM?

Also, our Nigerian friend, Folake Kellogg, had a dream in which the Lord told her, "You cannot have Esther 4:14 without Nehemiah 4:14."

"And I looked, and arose and said to the nobles, to the leaders, and to the rest of the people, 'Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, great and awesome, and fight for your brethren, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses.'" (Nehemiah 4:14)

We shudder to think of what will happen for our generation and the generation to come if we do not triumph over the plans of darkness in this hour of history.

So, at 4:14 in your own time zone, we ask that wherever you are you stop and take Communion.

Stand in the gap on behalf of 1) Israel, 2) your own nation, and 3) America.

Years ago, the Lord told us in a dream that it would "honor the body and the blood to pray for His Israel each day before the sun sets."

Let us "execute the judgment written" by decreeing the Word of God and calling forth His purposes while, at the same time, decreeing the judgment of the Cross over powers and principalities.

In doing so, over the next 90 days, we will be establishing national altars of righteousness and opening portals of God's favor as mentioned in 2 Chronicles 7:14.

Additional Prayer Points

For those who would appreciate more guidance for your intercession, consider agreeing with us in the following prayer objectives inspired by Lou and Christy's exhortation:

1. Let us pray for the restraining of the demonic principalities and wicked governments that seek Israel's destruction and have brought death and suffering upon their own people. (Photo via Unsplash)

"Make haste, O God, to deliver me! Make haste to help me, O Lord! Let them be ashamed and confounded who seek my life; let them be turned back and confused who desire my hurt." (Psalm 70:1–2)

2. Repent on behalf of your nation, Israel, and America, for every unholy agreement and blood covenant. Plead the better blood of Jesus and His greater covenant. Call for the dismantling of witchcraft and the occult in every sphere of our government and society.

"...'How can there be peace,' Jehu replied, 'as long as all the idolatry and witchcraft of your mother Jezebel abound?'" (2 Kings 9:22)

3. Pray for the presidential elections, that America and the globe will be spared from the demonic agendas being espoused by the Democratic party.

"For how can I endure to see the evil that will come to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my countrymen?" (Esther 8:6)

4. Pray for the restraining of World War III, for the sake of the global missions movement and the reaping of a mass harvest of souls.

"The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." (2 Peter 3:9)

5. Decree that America is going to come back to her original covenant with the Lord. Welcome Him back into our nation, our schools, and every sphere of society.

6. Pray forth the opening of the womb of America for the rebirth of the nation and the birthing of many souls into salvation.

"Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God." (Psalm 90:2)

7. Pray for mercy to triumph over judgment and for a great awakening to sweep across this generation with deliverance from all kinds of addictions, sin patterns, mental illness, and identity confusion.

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free." (Luke 4:18)
