Section A: The mission – what and why
1 About prayer journeys
1.1 A prayer journey is a trip by a group of believers, to a distant location for the
purpose of interceding. The ultimate goal is to bring God’s Kingdom to that country,
city or location. To bring the gospel (God’s Kingdom) to those who are in spiritual
darkness and who have never heard the gospel.
1.2 A prayer journey is just a different kind of prayer meeting - not one with closed eyes
in a prayer room or vestry of the church, but one with opened-eyed wonder in the very
places where we would like to see our prayers answered. In other words, giving feet to
our prayers.
1.3 A prayer journey is not a pleasure trip or vacation, nor is it to pray while we evangelise
or give out tracts and videos. It is a pilgrimage of petition.
1.4 Isaiah 40:3-4 “Listen, I hear the voice of someone shouting: ‘Make a road for the Lord
through the wilderness, make Him a straight smooth road through the desert, fill the
valleys, level the hills, straighten out the crooked paths and smooth off the rough spots
in the road. The glory of the Lord will be seen by all mankind together.”
This scripture speaks of “preparing the way”. It is the clearing away of spiritual
obstacles, so that the gospel of Jesus can be preached in that location. If we
compare it with a war, where one country wants to invade another, we would say
that sending in of heavy artillery or heavy ordnance, to open the way for the foot
soldiers to move in and conquer the enemy. Our prayers will be like the heavy
ordnance before the missionaries enter a country.
1.5 Ps 2:8 - “Ask of Me, and I will give the nations as your inheritance and the uttermost
parts of the earth for your possession”. God wants us to ask, and He will give...
because He longs for all to be saved and to come to the saving knowledge of God (1
Tim 2:4).
1.6 The seed of the gospel needs well prepared soil in which to grow. Through our prayers
we “plough” and “till” the ground and prepare it for the precious seed of the gospel.
1.7 During a prayer journey the believer spends most of his/her time “prayer walking” the
location where he/she has travelled to. Prayer walking is simply to pray “on- site
with insight”. You may say: “God can hear me from my own prayer room - why fly
halfway around the world to pray?” Most certainly home-based intercession is vital to
pave the way for the gospel to enter into a country and to form a covering of prayer for
those on-location intercessors. But... there are many reasons why on-site prayer is
needed:
1.8 Praying “on-site”
Reading Eph 6 and especially verse 12, we see that there is a spiritual realm where
all spiritual battles are fought. The spiritual realm is different in every country.
We must be in that country, seeing, observing and discerning what the spiritual
atmosphere is, and which forces are operating in that area.
Praying on-site helps to sensitise the intercessor to the realities of the

10

community. The sights, sounds and smells engage our whole being, body, mind
and spirit. Better perception means better intercession.
When we walk the streets of a foreign country, we are the presence of Jesus to
those who walk in darkness.
1.9 Praying with “insight”
When praying with insight, we pray in response to what we experience e.g.seeing
the sadness in a woman who begs, and praying for her.
It also entails praying about that which we researched before going on a
journey, and praying at the places where we would like to see God move.
Praying with insight means praying for the things God reveals as we walk. Things
about the people and community that could not be known in any other way than
being and sensing what God reveals to us.
1.10 The most rewarding of all is being able to actually witness God answering prayer in
supernatural ways while we are there, on-site, interceding for the lost.
2 Goals of this prayer tour
2.1 To work towards the establishing of Gods kingdom in France through different and
varied ministries focuses.
2.2 To equipe French believers in whichever way possible, so that they can be
strengthened and aided in the kingdom work they do in France.
2.3 To pray against spiritual influences that keep the French nation in darkness;
enslaving them so that they cannot serve God and fulfill His purposes for their lives
and for their nation.
2.4 In the past the nation of France has martyred many believers as they pursued God in
their nation. For centuries the country was brought under the veils of darkness,
preventing the people of France from discovering the freedom and true liberty found in
Christ Jesus. They have forgotten the God of their Huguenots forefathers just like the
Israelistes in Egypt had fallen into slavery because of ignorance of the God of
Abraham, Izak and Jacob. Our plea is for God to awaken the French to their true
spiritual heritage and to supernaturally make a way for them to be released from
their slavery (to the gods of this world) so that they can pursue God and serve Him.
2.5 To speak into the removal of the spiritual enemies of God resisting the life and
kingdom of God in France. We will do that by:
Asking forgiveness for the sins of France. Bloodshed, idolatry, immorality,
broken covenants.
Praying for the destruction and removal of idolatrous altars [and their demonic
influences] in France.
Praying against the influences that have historically destroyed the kingdom
work of God in France, i.e. the Roman Catholic System and governmental
systems (including the Royal houses of the past).
Praying against the secular influence of humanism and atheistic philosophies
that has entrenched itself so deeply in French society, causing generations to fall
away from God and godly living.
Praying that the people of France’s eyes will be opened for the gospel and truth of

God’s love and kingdom so that they can possess their God-given birthright and
fulfil their God-ordained calling.
2.6 To encourage, support and recognize the local Body of Christ and to strengthen
them in their endeavors.
2.7 To establish true worship to the King of kings and Lord of lords on the soil of
France by ministering to, establishing and strengthening the altars of Almighty God.
3 About your role: Qualified servants of God
3.1 There are many reasons why God shouldn’t have called you. But don’t worry. You’re in
good company. Moses stuttered. David’s armour did not fit. John Mark was rejected by
Paul. Timothy had ulcers. Hosea’s wife was a prostitute. Amos’ only training was in the
school of fig-tree pruning. Jacob was a liar. David had an affair. Solomon was too rich.
Jesus was too poor. Abraham was too old. David was too young. Peter was afraid of
death. Lazarus was dead. John was self-righteous. Naomi was a widow.
Paul was a murderer. So was Moses. Jonah ran from God. Miriam was a gossip.
Gideon and Thomas both doubted. Jeremiah was depressed and suicidal. Elijah was
burned out.
John the Baptist was a loudmouth. Martha was a worry-wart. Mary was lazy. Samson
had long hair. Noah got drunk. Did I mention that Moses had a short fuse? So did
Peter, Paul -- well, lots of folk did.
As much as we try, God’s gifts are free. We could do wonderful things for wonderful
people and still not be ... Wonderful. Satan says, “You’re not worthy.” Jesus says, “So
what? I AM.” Satan looks back and sees mistakes. God looks back and sees the cross.
He doesn’t calculate what you did in ‘88. It’s not even on the record.
Sure, there are lots of reasons why God shouldn’t have called us; but if we are utterly
in love with Him, if we hunger for Him more than our next breath, He’ll use us in spite of
who we are, where we’ve been, or what we look like. I pray that as Christians, we will
step out of our limitations into the illimitable nature of who God is. Then our passion for
God and our passion to communicate Him will make mince-meat of our limitations.

4 About intercession - a call to serve
4.1 Firstly, intercession is serving. It is making oneself available. Consider the example of
Jesus, our chief intercessor. He said: “And whoever of you desires to be first shall be
the slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to
give His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:44-45).
4.2 Servanthood is at the very heart of intercession. No one prays effectively for others
who do not have the servant Spirit of Christ. The Greek word for “serve” in Mark 10:45
is “doulos”, which means “in bondage by choice”. It means to subject oneself
voluntarily to the ministry of caring.
4.3 Secondly, intercession is identifying. As Paul reminded the Corinthian believers:
“Though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant of all, that I might win

became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I
might by all means save some.” (1 Cor 9:19-20a; 22).
4.4 Intercession is ruling. It is commanding with authority. To the prophet Jeremiah, who
might be described more aptly as a “prophetic intercessor”, God said: “See I have this
day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms to root out and to pull down, to
destroy and to throw down, to build and to plant.” (Jer 1:10). His calling begins with the
assignment to “root out”. To be an effective intercessor means going to the very
source of a problem - its roots. Roots are the hidden supply source of a plant. When
dealing with moral decay, roots refer to unseen forces of evil that feed the decay.
Thus, Jeremiah was assigned to, through intercession, remove the “roots of decay”
polluting his nation. To “root out” in prayer is to penetrate so deeply into a spiritual
circumstance that we are able to deal directly with the primary source of that condition.
4.5 Beyond that, Jeremiah is committed to “pull down” obstacles that have been raised
up in opposition to God’s best for His people. To “pull down” means to remove any
obstacle that has been elevated and is fixed in a high position.
4.6 Next, Jeremiah is instructed to “destroy” these obstacles. To “destroy”, means to
subdue or to defeat someone or something utterly! Then Jeremiah is instructed o
“throw down” that which Satan enthrones. To “throw down” is even stronger that to
“pull down”. It means to discard or remove something quickly with great force.
4.7 Jeremiah’s calling is not complete - two vital responsibilities remain. What began in
the negative suddenly becomes positive. Jeremiah is now told “to build and to plant”.
To “build” means to give form to something according to a definite plan or process
or to establish and strengthen. Intercessors must not only remove obstacles through
their prayers but they must help put something in the place of what has been removed.
4.8 Finally, there is an aspect of intercession that births things in the Spirit. Jesus
said in John 7:38 “He who believes in Me - who cleaves to and trusts in and relies on
Me - as the Scripture has said, Out from his innermost being springs and rivers of
living water shall flow (continuously)”. Innermost being is the word “koilia”, which
means “womb”. We are the womb of God upon the earth. We are not the source of life,
but we are carriers of the source of life. We do not generate life, but we release,
through prayer, Him who does. We are "builders" for God. The Holy Spirit wants to
“bring forth” through us. See this extract out of Zech 4:1-6 “And the angel who talked
with me came again, and awakened me... and said to me, What do you see? I said, I
see and behold, a lampstand all of gold, with its bowls for oil on the top of it and its
seven lamps on it and there are seven pipes to each of the seven lamps which are
upon the top of it... So I asked the angel who talked with me, What are these, my
Lord?... Then he said to me, ... Not by might, not by power, but by My Spirit of
Whom the oil is a symbol, says the Lord of hosts.”

9 Group dynamics
9.1 During war times big and small groups were used by God.
In the times of the Old Testament God used the whole nation of Israel in battle

19

during their desert episode and invasion of Canaan (Jericho).
At another time the Lord used 300 men like in Gideon’s case (Judg 7).
Two in the case of Jonathan and his weapon bearer (1 Sam 14:6-15).
In Gideon, Ehud, and Jonathan’s cases God used a few individuals to start a war
wherein the rest of Israel participated (Lev 26:7-8; Jos 23:10; Judg 15:15).
9.2 Every individual as well as the leadership should seek God’s face continually to
know God’s plans in connection of the group, individual, and enemy. It is good to have
confirmation before you react on thoughts or information. To be in God’s army, to
make a choice for Jesus, implies immediately that you become part of a group or
nation of priests and kings for God (Rev 22:24 and Rev 7:9). That is God’s choice, not
man’s. To understand the dynamics of a group will help us fit into the group more
easily and will make us wise in the use of a group.
10 Management of a group
10.1 Regular group meetings for the team. Group meetings are essential to receive
strategy from God, build unity among group members and lead all the group members
in cleansing their lives before God.
Identify and recognise the different giftings and talents in the group.
Each group member has different giftings and talents and each one must be able to
fulfil his or her specific function within the group. The other group members need to
acknowledge this and make room for the different giftings and characters.
10.2 Each group will need to have individuals that would take responsibility for
different aspects of the functioning of the group. The following functions could be
very helpful.
A scribe - This person has a very important role. It should be someone that can
accurately document all aspects of the group planning and execution of the prayer
action. This person will then also be responsible for giving feedback to the group on
what they received from God and play an important role in compiling a feedback
report after the prayer action.
An administrator - Someone who enjoys organising and has the ability to deal with
practical aspects for the group and the prayer actions. He/she can take
responsibility for logistics, or be responsible to administrate the finances for the
group (this might include shopping needed for the group).
A support person to the group leader - Sometimes it helps when someone
undergirds the group leader in any assistance he/she might need, in order that
he/she can focus on the leadership responsibility. This support person(s) can assist
with spiritual matters or practical aspects.
When we travel as a prayer group by car (especially in an overseas country), there
is a need for someone to do the driving and another person to help with
navigation (reading the maps etc.).
When travelling abroad in a big group it is also very helpful if we have one person
responsible for the luggage (checking that nothing is left behind) before the group
departs to a new destination.
A direction giver - This normally is the work of the group leader himself. As word
and vision etc. come out, it is very important that someone can give clear guidance
on how that word should be practically understood and be put into place for the
group to be able to move on it. This person normally has a prophetic gifting, and
does not get entangled with detail but understands how to fit things into a whole.

This person will be able to discern Gods leading within the group.
It is important for group leaders to understand that they are part of the team,
though different in function to the other members. They cannot force their opinion or
decisions on the rest of the team. The team as whole must have consensus on
everything planned. The team leader must facilitate the roles and activities of the
group according to the mandate God has given them.
11 The advantage of a group
11.1 There is diversity, because people are different in temperament, maturity, knowledge,
training, experience, and ability. In such a diverse group of people it should be possible
to cover most of the group’s functional needs to reach the desired goals. Because of
the diversity of strengths in the group it should be possible to overcome the weak
areas in the group (Neh 3).
11.2 The principal of agreement is also an advantage (Matt 18:16, 19-20).
11.3 When a task needs to be done, the burden can be shared, and with a group there are
always people available to help.
11.4 In the group there must be understanding that the capabilities and abilities on every
level will differ and that group members must accommodate each other. Ignorance and
inexperience doesn’t mean the person is stupid or inferior to another in Christ.
11.5 In an army setup a group can more easily defend themselves than being alone or
single. Here every person in Christ becomes a weapon against the enemy. If trust and
understanding were practiced beforehand, it will be easier to work together under
stressful times.
11.6 A few points that may help to handle differences.
Confront privately - don’t terrorise each other in front of an audience.
Confront as quickly as possible - delay can make bitterness grow.
Confront one problem at a time.
Don’t repeat the same point again and again.
Confront the person - if he / she can do something about it.
Avoid sarcasm - you will loose the other person’s trust.
Avoid the words “always“and never“.
Criticise by making proposals and asking questions.
Don’t apologise for conflict.
Don’t forget the compliments. (Compliment - Confront - Compliment).
11.7 Personal safety
Be intimate with God (seek His face daily).
Listen to His voice.
Check your armour.
Wait for the command of the Holy Spirit, before you act.
Let the Holy Spirit show you the most effective weapon to use.

12 Intra group relationships – keeping team unity
Whenever we take part in a project like these ministry tours, God tends to do more
in us than through us.
God will challenge our comfort and boundaries. We will see things that surface that
have never become visible in normal circumstances. We must be willing to change
and grow when we are challenged in these areas.
12.1 Fleshly behavior and reactions
Offence – in the team or towards our hosts. How to do deal with it:
• Bring it before God
• Share with an individual
• Pray together and forgive
• Prov 18:19
19 “A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city, And contentions are
like the bars of a castle”.
• Mat 24:10-12 – In the Last days
10 “And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one
another. 11 “Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 “And
because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 “But he who
endures to the end shall be saved”.
• Heb 12:15
15 “looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of
bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;…”
• 2 Cor 6:3
3 ”We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed”.
• Act 24:16
16 “This being so, I myself always strive to have a conscience without offense
toward God and men”.
Irritations
• Personality quirks
• Habits
• Tiredness can cause us to be less able to tolerate irritations.
• Discomfort
• Being late
• Difficult Circumstances
• Fixables vs. non fixable – it does not help if we harp on issues that a person
cannot easily change. In some things we will just have to be patient and
gracious.
Anger
• Be angry but do not sin (Eph 4:26).
Attention seekers / love spotlight / self promotion / own kingdom.
Comfortable / not serving (being served) / Abusing and misusing team members.

Staying together and in unity.
• It is essential that we do not stray from the group in whatever setting we may
find ourselves. The team integrity is of the utmost importance to ensure our
personal and team safety as well as success in our purpose.
Keeping focus and always participating.
• Tourist attitude / wanting to take too many photos and a shopping spirit will
cause the team to be distracted from their purpose.
Isolation / self separation / not contributing.
• You are part of a team and need to contribute to the success of the whole.
Isolating yourself will cause the team to be lacking your gifting and input and
therefore success will be less likely.
• Prov 18:1-
“ 1 A man who isolates himself seeks his own desire; He rages against all wise
judgment.”
Pride / judgmental attitudes / negativity.
• Pride is a difficult vice to discern. It is important that we evaluate our own
actions, reactions and motives to see if we are misrepresenting Gods heart. God
does not judge others and He is not negative about people, doesn’t matter how
misguided they may be in your eyes.
• We must help one another to not get stuck in these attitudes so that we do not
disqualify us in God eyes, because then it becomes impossible for us to
represent God accurately.
Strong opinions.
• We must remember that our opinions are just that, our opinions. None of us can
pride ourselves as having the perfect perspective on truth. So let us be careful in
promoting our opinion. Our opinions will not save people and meet their needs.
Only God can do that. For us to be effective instruments in God’s hands we
have to lay down our opinions and be open to do things as the Spirit leads us.
Submission issues.
• Scripture calls us to submit one to another (1 Pet 5:5), thereby we recognise the
Spirit of God in our fellow team member. The way we handle one another says
something about the way we relate to God.
• We also have to understand the importance of submitting to local leadership.
They were appointed by God and recognising them as God representatives
provides us with spiritual covering and protection.
Haste
• Being in a hurry will cause us to miss the mark. Never rush into things.
• Prov 19:2
2
“…he sins who hastens with his feet”.
• Is 28:16b
“… whoever believes will not act hastily”.
Presumption / method
• We have to make sure that what we do is inspired and directed by the Holy

23

Spirit. Presumption and method reveals flehly functioning and can be very
detrimental to a project.
Self pity / “smart vrate”
• Ministering to team members and counselling team members on tour is
unacceptable. This must be handled in preparation for the tour so that we can
focus on ministering to the French in France. Make us of praying together on
tour to deal with things that surface and then move on.
Wrong packaging
• Emotional / dramatic / loud / pushy / super spiritual.
• Often we find persons in the group that are very dramatical in the way they
express their revelations / points of view. These individuals are often very
prophetic. It is important to receive their contribution to the group and not to
dispel what they receive from God, simply because their presentation may be
irritating due of its dramatic tones. It would be very helpful if these persons could
be coached beforehand [ahead of the prayer action], to correctly package their
contributions to the group, so that it is more easily received.
Overbearing / forcing things / not honouring boundaries
12.2 Tongue problems
Gossip / talking behind the back / criticism / exposing the faults of others.
• Remember if we walk in love we will cover the multitude of transgressions (Prov
17:9).
Compulsive verbalisers / expressive people
• Learn to hold back so others can develop and so you do not become an
irritation.
• Remember Scripture states that if we do not have our tongue under control we
will multiply our transgressions.
Verbal abuse
• IS, unacceptable. Have the maturity and respect to take things up in a proper
manner. Don’t attack a team member or our hosts. We are on the same side.
We are never one anothers enemy.
12.3 Team dynamics
Communication
• From the leader. Team members must also ask the leader if things are unclear
to them. The leader is often under a lot of stress with many different
responsibilities.
• A lot of the logistic are in the booklet – do not ask if you already have the info.
• Translation – be patient. Realise it will not always be possible to be kept
informed accurately. Focus on God.
Beware of Partisanship
• We have to be willing to ride in different cars and be willing to make turns to
share rooms with other team members.
• Reach out to all team members and build relationships with all.

24

Handling of finances
• Transparency and stewardship is important.
• Sowing and receiving money must be handled in such a way that every team
member is aware of what is happening with the finances. We need to make
decisions together when it comes to sowing of money.
Team responsibilities
• Every team member must take responsibility for the vision and work of the team
as a whole. None of us can sit back and wait for someone else to get the job
done. Take a step of faith and allow the Holy Spirit to give you insight of what
you can do to address the needs of team members and French believers.
• Be ready to share / teach etc.
• Scribing is a hard and difficult work. Let us be sensitive to the person
responsible for scribing and help them wherever possible.
• The leader has to take initiative and take spiritual responsibility for the team.
Help the leader and do not make things difficult for him / her.
12.4 Spiritual Issues
Manipulation.
• Jezebel (manipulation, intimidation, domination, control)
• Confront it head on, we cannot allow it.
The foreign Spiritual environment.
• We must remind ourselves that we are moving into a foreign spiritual
environment and things will be different to our own country. Once we discern
this dynamic we will be watchful that we are not influenced by negative aspects.
• Remember the people will also differ from us. Do not get negative about this.
Understand this dynamic and learn from it.
• The influences of the spiritual atmosphere can often give rise to
miscommunication (twisters and turners), disunity and other manifestations
(such as immoral thoughts etc).
• Some experiences might be very emotional and or traumatic for some team
members. Brace yourself for the possibility and allow for other team members to
pray with you in order to help you through such patches.
Adhering to Godly Mandate
• Whenever other opportunities and possibilities present themselves, make sure
you do not move out of the parameters of your mandate.
Insensitivity to others and Holy Spirit.
Put pressure on your gift; it is the only way you will grow in your spiritual abilities.
Religious Spirit / legalism / no grace / inflexible deadens a group spiritually.
We have a send back policy in cases where individuals are not willing to submit
and cause great disruption to team functioning.
Discernment.
• When we discern negative things it can so easily distract us from being focussed
on God. We need to be weary that we rule in the midst of the circumstance and
that we do not over react to negative things arounds us.

12.5 The French
Loving the French
• Ther is a communication barrier that we will be confronted with, but remember
that the language of love knows no cultural or language barrier. It ministers to
the heart of another peson and cannot be misunderstood. Let us be elequant in
this language as we try to minister to the needs of our hosts.
• We will be staying in the homes of the French. Sometimes we may encounter
spiritual influences that have a legal right to be there. We cannot evict such
influences but we should stand in our positional authority to neutralise such
influences while we are there (for example Madonnas, images etc.).
Wisdom in Public places and with French
• We are not supposed to make a scene. Make sure that what you do is clearly
the instruction of the Spirit. Be wise in how you go about in doing the things God
leads you to do.
• Be aware of prophetic actions with such a swords etc. in public places.
Submitting to local leadership
• We cannot force ourselves on the French believers. We only use the platform
they give us.
• We do not represent a denomination, but the kingdom.
• Our job is to serve, not dominate.
• If they do not want to allow us, then we submit humbly without reaction. It is
more important to win the relationship than being right.
Do not expose the French and put them in danger (ex. backlash)
• We have to remember we come to France and leave. Our hosts stay behind and
are spiritually exposed because of many of our actions. Be wise as to not
endanger them.
12.6 Some Scriptural instructions to ensure godly functioning
Eph 4:26-32
26 “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath,
27 nor give place to the devil. 29 Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but
what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of
redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away
from you, with all malice. 32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one
another, just as God in Christ forgave you".
Col 3:8-16
8
But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy,
filthy language out of your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off
the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who is renewed in
knowledge according to the image of Him who created him, 11 where there is neither
Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free,
but Christ is all and in all. 12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on
tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one
another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another;
even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14 But above all these things put on
love, which is the bond of perfection. 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts,

26

to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ
dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms
and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Col 4:5-6
5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time. 6 Let your
speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you
ought to answer each one.
Mark 9:41
41 “For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong
to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.
Luk 6:27-31, 37-38
27 “… Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 “bless those who curse
you, and pray for those who spitefully use you. 29 “To him who strikes you on the one
cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not
withhold your tunic either. 30 “Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who
takes away your goods do not ask them back. 31 “And just as you want men to do to
you, you also do to them likewise. 37 “Judge not, and you shall not be judged.
Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
38 “Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together,
and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you
use, it will be measured back to you.”
Joh 13:13-16,20,34-35
13 “You call me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. 14 “If I then, your
Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s
feet. 15 “For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.
16 “Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he
who is sent greater than he who sent him. 20 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who
receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who
sent Me.” 34 “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I
have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 “By this all will know that you are
My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Prov 17:14,28
14 The beginning of strife is like releasing water; Therefore stop contention before a
quarrel starts. 28 Even a fool is counted wise when he holds his peace; when he
shuts his lips, he is considered perceptive.

Section C: Travelling to and in France
13 Travel tips
13.1 Before departure
Drink a lot of fluid, preferably water, the day before and the day of departure to
prevent dehydration in the airplane. You will be served something to drink at least
four or five times during your flight.
Pull up a checklist for yourself - Of course, you would never forget important
items like passport, plane tickets, etc. when you travel - right? WRONG! It is best to
make a checklist of everything days in advance. When you are in a rush it is easy to
forget your carry-on or passport wallet on the kitchen table as you rush out the
door.
13.2 Baggage advice and regulations
13.2.1 Looking after money and documents
Small, flat “moon bag” made of natural fibre e.g. cotton, to be worn against
the body (invisible), which contains your passport, travel documents,
travellers’’ cheques and spare key of your suitcase. Important: Fasten the
moon bag with a big safety pin as a precaution against snatchers! Neck
wallet or money belt can also be use.
Keep most of your money hidden away underneath your clothes. You might
even want to go to a two or three level system: keep passport, airline
tickets, and the bulk of your money in a money belt, about 50 -100 euros in a
neck wallet, and about 5 -10 Euros in your jeans’ pockets.
13.2.2 Small day bag / back pack to contain daily requirements. (Not too much
money!)
13.2.3 Hand luggage / Overnight travel bag
Important: Passengers to and from Europe will only be allowed one piece of
cabin baggage not exceeding 56 cm in length by 45 cm in width and 25 cm
in depth. All other hand carried items, including hand bags, laptops and cell
phones MUST form part of this one piece of cabin baggage and may NOT be
carried loose.
Camera and Mobile phone (remember to switch it off).
Small supporting / inflatable cushion.
Toothbrush and toothpaste.
Deodorant (see Toiletries below).
Brush/comb, make-up, razor (razor blades not in a cartridge are prohibited)
etc.
Chronic medication (if any – see Exceptions below).
Small plastic bag with face cloth to freshen up before arrival.
Panty liners (for ladies), clean underwear.
Toilet paper (remove centre core and press flat).
Sleeping tablets (if necessary).
Spare set of clothes in case your hold luggage goes AWOL at the other
end.
Tiny flashlight (this is optional, you can get really tiny flashlights, and they
can come in very handy).
Small amount of cash for when you arrive.
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009
Compiled by UPF (South Africa) - Cell: +27 83 559 5486 / Email: upfsa@absamail.co.za
28

Phrase book and guide book, Don’t forget something to read – tour books
especially.
Glasses, spare contact lenses.
For less chance of getting disturbed by a chatty neighbour or by cabin staff,
take an eye mask.
Sleeping pills to help you sleep on the plane. We cannot arrive in France
tired. Drink half a pill early in the flight otherwise you may be drowsy at
arrival.
13.2.4 What you are not allowed to take:
For some (strange ☺) reason axes, brass knuckles and fire extinguishers are
prohibited. As are metal scissors with pointed tips, pepper spray and
portable power drills…
No swords, tear gas, ski poles or screwdrivers…
13.2.5 Toiletries may be carried, provided that:
Items are packed in a resealable clear plastic bag not exceeding 1 litre in
size. The items in the sealable bag may not exceed 100 ml per item.
The bag must be sealed (zip lock bags will do).
Contents must fit comfortably in the bag.
Bag must be given to security staff at the boarding gate for screening /
inspection separate from cabin baggage.
Items exceeding the above requirements must be declared to security staff.
All passengers will be subjected to secondary boarding gate screening /
searches.
Liquids (perfume, make-up) purchased at Duty Free must be in a tamper
evident clear plastic bag; the receipt must be visible in the bag; the liquid
must have been purchased on the day of travel.
Duty Free liquid carried by passengers traveling from a destination outside of
the EU on a non-EU airline is not allowed and should be voluntarily
abandoned.
13.2.6 Exceptions:
Prescription medicine (liquid and gels).
The passenger will be required to taste the medicine to verify that it is
genuine. If the medicine cannot be tasted, the passenger will be referred
back to the airline who will accompany the passenger to an airport
pharmacist to verify the medicine.
Essential non-prescription medicines not to exceed 120 ml per container, to
include saline solution and eye care products, such as eye drops and contact
lens solution.
Syringes and hypodermic needles should be declared to the checkpoint
security staff. These items will only be allowed if accompanied by clearly
labelled medication, such as insulin.
Solid cosmetics and personal hygiene items, such as lipstick in a tube, solid
deodorant, lip balm and similar solids.
Jackets and coats must be removed and screened.
13.2.7 Main luggage
Don't pack what you don't need. There is nothing worse than lugging around
a pile of bricks when arriving in a new city and trying a find a place.
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009
Compiled by UPF (South Africa) - Cell: +27 83 559 5486 / Email: upfsa@absamail.co.za
29

Remember you will have to carry your own luggage. One needs less than
one thinks.
Maximum weigbht of 20 kg is alowed.
Do not take a separate vanity case: pack all toiletries in a small watertight
bag.
Name tags on the outside as well on the inside of your suitcase.
Customize the look of your suitcase to make it easy to identify.
Because there may be many bags with a similar design on a flight,
customizing the bag will make it easy to spot on a baggage carousel. This
will also help prevent another passenger from taking your bag by mistake.
Make sure that your suitcase has a lock with at least two or three keys. One
key in your carry handbag; spare key in your moon bag. Both keys should be
attached to a piece of elastic – this piece of elastic should be sewn into your
moon bag and handbag – you will still be able to unlock your suitcase by
stretching the elastic and you will always know where the keys are!
Pack items such as sun tan lotion, moisturiser and perfume into individual
bags (like ziplock bags), just in case the packaging gets smashed or the
contents leak.
With strict security checks in place, items such as razors, penknives,
hypodermic needles and nail files / sets must rather be packed into your hold
baggage, not your hand luggage.
After having checked in: Make sure that you keep the stub from your
checked luggage. This stub is a critical document that will be needed if your
luggage is lost by the airline or if you are trying to prove that you own a piece
of luggage.
Keep your boarding pass save between checking in a boarding. If this
document is lost you cannot get onto the plain.
13.3 In-flight comfort
Walk or move around as much as you can during the flight to help prevent deep
vein thrombosis (DVT). Drink plenty of clear fluids (water, not gin or vodka...), to
help make sure you keep hydrated on your flight, as cabin air is very dehydrating.
Avoid alcohol at all costs.
Chewing gum or sucking a mint can really help prevent your ears popping during
take off and descent.
13.4 What to wear (important - travel light!)
Whatever you have – casual to smart – comfortable and some warmer clothes.
Crease-resistant clothes as far as possible - three pairs of trousers (jeans always
work well as you can wear one pair for several days without othe people noticing),
three skirts, six shirts to mix ‘n match (three hangers).
One pair comfortable walking shoes + one pair casual/smart.
Underwear and pajamas.
One good jacket (a Dry Mac is always helpful and doen’t take up a lot of space).
Hat.
13.5 Other tips
Have certified copies made of important documents: Passport, air ticket and
travellers’ cheques (make a list of the serial numbers of the travellers’ cheques).
Keep originals in your small body “moon bag”, one set in your suit case and one set
in your carry handbag.

30

Don’t forget an alarm clock.
Small container Woollite or Omo for your washing.
Crease-resistant clothes as far as possible – otherwise a small “dream steamer” /
iron.
Small sewing kit.
Travel plugs / adaptors. The electricity current in France is 220 volts. Circular twopin
plugs are the rule. Adaptors should be bought before you leave home.
Bible, notebook, koki pens.
Sun block.
Ear plugs in case your room mate snores.
Snacks: Vacuum packed biltong and droë wors (small amount if you have to -
customs are very strict about such items); provitas, cheese wedges, dried fruit and
nuts; beskuit; Cadbury Snackers; peanuts and raisins.
Extras: 1 tea towel; knife (packed in your main luggage not hand luggage),
teaspoon, coffee mug.
13.6 The weather in France
Northern and north-western France is most affected by the changeable weather
brought in by Atlantic disturbances and its climate is rather similar to that of Britain.
Southern France has a Mediterranean-type climate and is a bit warmer than the
north.
Central and eastern France, roughly east of a line through Dunkirk, and, has a
more continental climate which bears some resemblance to that found in West
Germany and Switzerland. The high mountain areas have their own distinctive
climates with heavier precipitation, much of it snow in winter; these areas are colder
all the year round. In France the weather can be changeable at all times of the year.
The average temperatures and weather conditions expected are given below.
Between 14 and 15 hours daylight are expected throughout.

13.7 Driving in France
13.7.1 Basic Driving Rules
The French drive on the right, safety belts are required for all passengers,
and honking your horn in the city (unless it’s to prevent an accident) can
result in fines.
Do not use the bus lanes, even in heavy traffic.
Priority is given to cars coming from the right (even from smaller roads
onto larger ones). In roundabouts, cars already inside have the priority but
this is often ignored so watch out. No right turn is allowed at red lights unless
there’s a blinking yellow arrow.
Speed limits are rarely posted except as a reminder. These are the
guidelines:
• In towns and urban areas: 50km/h
• On main roads: 90km/h or 80 km/h in rain or fog
• On dual carriageways: 110 km/h or 90-11 km/h in rain or fog
• On autoroutes / motorways: 130km/h or 110km/h in rain or fog
Some traffic signals and signage:
• A flashing red traffic light means ‘Do not enter’
• Flashing amber means ‘Caution’.
• Flashing yellow arrows mean ‘give way’.
• A sign reading “danger prioritè à droite” reminds you that traffic on
the right has priority at intersections.
• A sign reading “passage protégé” indicates that you're approaching a
road that has priority.
(Image below: sign 1: blue; sign 2: red; sign 3 yellow)
• Traffic in a roundabout (rond point) has priority, this is indicated by a
red-bordered triangular sign bearing the roundabout symbol and the
33

words “vouz n'avez pas la priorité” (you do not have right of way) or
“cèdez le passage” (give way).
• You must give bicyclists a clearance of at least one metre when you
pass them.
Broken centre lines indicate a section of road where passing is allowed. On
the autoroute a double-thick white line designates the mandatory slow lane.
A moving tram on a two-way street may be passed on the right only. A
moving tram on a one-way street, however, may be passed on the left. Do
not pass a stopped tram of which passengers are boarding or disembarking.
Some police are empowered to collect fines of up to €380 on the spot. If you
cannot immediately produce your vehicle registration document and driving
licence, you may be fined €15. And if within five days you do not present
them at a police station, €150 may be tacked on. For minor offences a fine is
payable within 30 days. A deposit might be required if a serious offence is
committed by a non resident.
13.7.2 Toll
An autoroute on which tolls are charged is indicated by a sign, usually blue,
reading “péage”. Green signs indicate non-toll expressways.
• Major roads are designated as Routes Nationales (RN), and tend to be
much slower since they go through town centers, while the smallest
roads are the Routes Départmental (RD).
On sections of autoroute in the proximity of large cities no toll is charged.
Toll can be paid with coins or credit cards. Visa and MasterCard are among
the cards accepted.
When you enter an autoroute, take a ticket from the gate machine. This
ticket identifies your starting point on the autoroute. You do not pay a toll
until you reach your exit point. Automatic toll machines at exits take credit
cards or coins and give change and, if required, receipts.
13.7.3 Don't drive in Paris. Just don't.
Traffic is dense, parking is expensive and almost impossible to find in the
center (hotels rarely have private parking), and it’s not a very nice way to see
the city. And then there's that very peculiar way that Parisians drive. Double
parking, going backwards down one-way streets, running red lights and
dangerous speeding are quite common.
The Roads around Paris - The main ring road or beltway around Paris is
called the périphérique (the périphérique interieur runs clockwise around the
city, the périphérique exterieur runs counterclockwise). There are five major
motorways in Ile-de-France (les autoroutes): the A1 (north network), the A4
(east), A10 (west and southwest), A6 (southeast) and the A13 (to
Normandy).
13.7.4 Parking
Do not double-park or park in no-stopping zones or areas reserved for
deliveries (livraisons) or the disabled. Street parking in most cities are
limited to 2 hours.
Pay-and-display machines (horodateurs) are common throughout France.
• Larger cities have Blue Zones where parking discs or tickets must be
displayed on vehicle dashboards. Discs should be displayed on the
inside of the windshield, with the clock hands set to show time of arrival

34

and planned time of departure.
• The limit in Blue Zones is 1.5 hours from 9am to 7pm, except from
11.30am to 2.30pm, with no tickets required on Sundays or public
holidays.
Many coin-operated parking meters though have been replaced by cards –
(cartes de stationnements) which you can purchase at tabacs.
Parking is free on Sundays, public holidays, after 7pm, and in residential
areas in August (indicated by a round yellow sticker on the meter). Provincial
towns often offer free parking from noon to 1.30pm.
Vehicles parked in dimly lit public places must have their parking lights on.
Getting Towed:
• In Paris and some other large cities, illegally parked vehicles may be
wheel-clamped or towed.
• Look carefully for tow-zone signs, usually placed at the ends of the
street (with a little pictogram of a tow truck). Other cars may be parked
there, but don’t let them fool you. If you get towed, your car will
impounded at La Fourrière, Tel: 01 53 71 53 53. You’ll need to show
proof that it’s your car (keep the paperwork on you, not in the car) and
pay a fine to get it back.
13.7.5 Fuel
There are four types of fuel (essence or carburant) in France:
• super (leaded) – blue pump,
• sans plomb 98 (unleaded 98) – green pump,
• sans plomb 95 (unleaded 95) – green pump,
• and gazole (diesel).
Be sure you know what kind of gas your rental car takes before filling up!
Petrol is expensive in Europe around €1.20/liter.
Gas stations are all self-service; pump your gas and pay inside. Large
supermarket gas stations have credit card operated pumps. Gas is cheaper
outside cities, so wait until you’re out of the city to fill up (in the small towns,
not at motorway gas stations).
Major credit cards are accepted. You can pay at a booth or by inserting your
card into a machine near the pumps. If the person who preceded you
chooses to pay at the booth and hasn't yet succeeded in doing that, you may
have to wait to pump your fuel until they pay.
13.8 Pharmacies and medicine
Pharmacies are easily recognisable by the illuminated green cross and are run
by highly trained staff. Not allowed to dispense prescriptions from a foreign doctor.
Chronic medication (for blood pressure, etc): make sure that you take enough. If
you are taking a prescription, ask your doctor for a letter explaining that it is for
health reasons. All prescription medicines should be clearly labeled.
First aid kit for the team must include: Panado (for headaches), Neurofen (for
muscle / joint pains), Voltaren Gel, Valoids (for nausea), Lomotil / Kantrexil (for
diarrhoea), NB! Pectrolyte or Buscopan (for stomach cramps), Corenza C, cough
syrup, Andolex (for sore throats), Bandaid plasters, Betadine (for small injuries),
Senokot (for constipation), ear and eye drops, throat lozenges.

13.9 Public toilets
Do not be surprised if, in France, you land in a wet, smelly WC with foot rests and a
hole in the ground (for squatting).
Modern pay toilets are now found in many towns. These are Self-flushing WCs
that can only be opened by a coin.
The best policy is to use toilets in cafes or restaurants where you are a customer, or
go to a department store. It is customary to leave a tip in a basket (clearly visible)
for the lavatory attendant or sometimes you will have to buy toilet paper from them.
Toilet facilities are provided on the autoroute at drive-in rest areas every 20km
(often not clean) as well as major service stations.
It is an excellent idea to pre-pack small bags of tissues for daily use.
13.10 Crime and safety
Be alert at all times and never wander off alone. Trouble spots are the large cities
and airports. Avoid attracting attention by flaunting expensive jewellery or camera
equipment and never leave your baggage unattended. If anything should happen
and you find yourself alone, alert the police at once by dialing 17 in France. This is
necessary if you wish to claim on your insurance.
Emergency Numbers:
• Police / Gendarmerie: 17
• Fire (Pompiers): 18
• Ambulance (SAMU): 15 / 112
Don't draw unwanted attention to yourself - When travelling, it is best to leave
your jewellery at home - the richer you look, the more of a target you'll become for
pick-pockets.
Beware of pickpockets especially on the Paris Metro during the busy ruch hour
(particularly just as the carriage doors are closing). Keep all valuables securely
concealed and, if carrying a handbag, never let it out of your sight.
Keep a close eye especiaaly on your mobile phone and camera.
Never take out a stack of money in public view. Plan for the day and make use
of the 3 level sysem mentioned at 13.2.1. Then you can access smaller amounts of
money without having to take our all your money at once.
Your valuables and possessions are your own responsibility. You cannot expect
other team members to look after it.
Please do not embarrass your host/hostess by not wearing your seat belt – when
caught not wearing it, you can be fined heavily.
Never leave valuables and travel documentation in the car when you have
parked it in public places.
13.11 Etiquette
The French have rituals of politeness which are easy to pick up. In shops be ready
to day “Bonjour monsieur / Madame” before asking for what you want, then “merci”
when you receive your change, and “Merci, au revoir Monsieur / Madame” when
you get your purchase and leave.
Language Politeness - When travelling in France, don't just assume that the
person you are asking speaks English. First ask, 'Do you speak English?' and, after
receiving an appropriate response, proceed with your question.
The French love their country and everything French. Their little homes are their
pride and joy and they are happy while caring for visitors and blossom if you enjoy it
too.
Take small (not heavy) gifts for your hosts in the different countries. (Rooibos tea

and typical African gifts are always popular).
13.12 Tourist and town Information
All major cities and large towns have “office de tourism”. They can provide town
plans, advice and information.
Please gather relevant spiritual and historical information and pamphlets at places
visited so that future teams that will visit the area may inform themselves more
thoroughly.

Section D: Important teachings and Biblical principles
14 Developing strategy (practical group prayer actions)
14.1 The process
Any effective prayer action will have to go through the following steps:
R - Research = H2O H - Hear
S - Strategy H - Hear
A - Attack O - Obey
14.2 Research
14.2.1 Information is a vital part of any modern day warfare. It helps you to make
accurate decisions, develop effective strategies and successfully defeat the
enemy.
14.2.2 For us as spiritual warriors there are two ways of acquiring information that
would lead to effective spiritual warfare and prayer:
Information relayed to us by the Holy Spirit.
Jer 11:16-17 “For the Lord of hosts, who planted you, has pronounced doom
against you for the evil of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah,
which they have done against themselves to provoke Me to anger in offering
incense to Baal.” 18 Now the Lord gave me knowledge of it, and I know it; for
You showed me their doings.”
1 Joh 2:27 “But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in
you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing
teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it
has taught you, you will abide in Him”.
14.2.3 Knowledge acquired through research material and investigation
(interpreted under the guidance of the Holy Spirit).
Is 5:13 “Therefore my people have gone into captivity, Because they have
no knowledge; Their honorable men are famished, And their multitude dried
up with thirst”.
Hos 4:6 “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have
rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
Jer 4:22 “For My people are foolish, They have not known Me. They are silly
children, And they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, But to do
good they have no knowledge.”
14.2.4 Examples from Scripture
In Num 13 we read about Moses who had to send 12 spies to explore
Canaan.
• They had clear instructions (v.17-20).
• Different fields to investigate (v.18-23):
- Geographical / topographical
- Sociological and statistical
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009
Compiled by UPF (South Africa) - Cell: +27 83 559 5486 / Email: upfsa@absamail.co.za
38

- Cultural
14.2.5 Report back (v. 26-29)
14.2.6 We also see the effect of a negative decision, made because of the flesh
interpretation instead of the Spirit interpretation (v.31-33).
14.2.7 The final Scorecard:”All saw giants; most saw grasshoppers, two saw God.” –
George Otis, jr.
14.2.8 Jos 2
After Moses’ death Joshua led God’s people.
Two spies were sent to Canaan, in particular to Jericho
They had clear instructions
Different fields of investigation (v.2)
• eneral observation
• Reading the situation in Jericho
• God gives information through Rahab (v.9-13)
• They then have to give report on what they learned (v.23-24)
Acts 17:22
• What Paul saw and learnt about Athens concerning its culture, art,
statues, and poetry as he walked around the city, determined his
approach of ministry to them!
• Just as Moses, Joshua and Paul we might need to investigate an area
before evangelising or reaching out to the people.
Prov 19:2 “It is not good to have zeal without knowledge, nor to be hasty
and miss the way.”
• Warning: We are never led by information, but by the Holy Spirit. Don’t
be led by fascination instead of revelation.
1 Chron 12:32 “..Issachar, men who had understanding of the times to know
what Israel ought to do.” (Amp)
14.2.9 Different kinds of research
Historical research.
Cultural research.
Geographical / topographical research.
Contextual historical research (finding the roots or foundations. The roots
produce certain fruits).
Contemporary research (reading the current situation. What is going on
now?).
General sins.
This is a process with ongoing revelation, ongoing prayer and intercession.
Revelation knowledge is absolutely essential.
14.2.10 Documentation
Information should be easily accessible and presented in a usable,
orderly, pleasing display. The write-up of information is a continuous
process. It needs to be done with discipline. Facts should be given while
opinions should be stated as opinions and not as facts. Give background
and local information. Always state the date and time, place, people and
source of information.

14.3 Strategy
14.3.1 We always need to remind ourselves that our battle is not against people and
things, but against spiritual forces and enemies (Eph 6:12)
Ps 149:4-9 “For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the
meek with salvation. 5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud
upon their beds. 6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged
sword in their hand; To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and
punishments upon the people; 8 To bind their kings with chains, and their
nobles with fetters of iron; 9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this
honor have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
Jer 1:10 “See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the
kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down,
to build, and to plant.”
14.3.2 Interpretation and strategising
Wisdom, insight, revelation knowledge and strategies must come from God
and should be based on TRUTH and not on presumptions. Spies were sent
to both Jericho and Ai. In both cases strategies were in place before any
action was taken. With God’s strategy Jericho was taken while man’s
strategy failed tragically at Ai.
14.3.3 Godly strategy - hearing the voice of God
Three steps to hearing God - (Joy Dawson)
• Take Christ’s authority to silence the enemy (take authority over the
enemy)
• Ask the Lord to clear from your mind any presumptions and
preconceived ideas.
• Wait - believing He would speak in the way and time that He chooses.
14.3.4 Three voices - mine, the enemy’s and God’s.
14.3.5 Ways God speaks
Hearing scripture reference, without knowing what the Word says. The key
is yielding to Jesus - not pulling references out of the air.
Wait, listen, and focus your mind on Jesus alone.
A word comes up in you mind.
A mental picture comes up in your mind (in this you need to say Lord help
us to understand what You are saying through the picture).
Peace of God (or the lack of it / unrest) in your spirit.
Holy Spirit reminds you of word He gave you earlier - and says this is what
it was for.
Through dreams: Job 33:14 “For God may speak in one way, or in another,
Yet man does not perceive it. 15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, When
deep sleep falls upon men, While slumbering on their beds,”
The Word becoming a guide to us under the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Ps 119:105 - “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path”.

14.4 Group dynamics in compiling strategy
14.4.1 Strategy development
If you get words and visions do not try to interpret it as you think - allow
God to show you what it means.
Be in unity about deciding what you’ll do.
Do not change direction and go against the flow of things, make sure
you’re through with what God started before you move on.
Be careful of saying “the Lord said / showed me” etc. Let’s be transparent
and talk about, “I feel / think the Lord is saying” etc. So that we do not
pressurise one another.
Distance yourself from the word that you received – it’s not a criticism on you
if it wasn’t correct - it is the only way we will develop and discern.
Practice yourself in discernment and gifts. Heb 5:14 - “But solid food belongs
to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their
senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”
Can we discern His voice? John 12:29 – “Therefore the people who stood
by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken
to Him.”
To discern the will of God we need to give our bodies (lay down what the
flesh wants) as a holy living sacrifice to God. (One of the steps to hear Gods
voice is to silence your own flesh). Rom 12:1
As group members you must submit yourselves to one another = unity.
Eph 5:21 – “submitting to one another in the fear of God.” 1 Cor 14:29 – “Let
two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.”
There is wisdom in many counsellors; together we discern what God is
saying to us.
Prov 12:15 – “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But he who heeds
counsel is wise.”
Prov 11:14 – “Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude
of counsellors there is safety.”
Prov 24:6 – “For by wise counsel you will wage your own war, And in a
multitude of counsellors there is safety.”
Document everything you receive - later some of it might become clear.
Hab 2:1 – “I will stand my watch and set myself on the rampart, And watch to
see what He will say to me, And what I will answer when I am corrected.”
Beware of super spirituality - Be transparent.
Ecc 7:16 – “Do not be overly righteous, Nor be overly wise: Why should you
destroy yourself?”
Jesus never dominates, He directs
Jesus never intimidates, He inspires
Jesus never manipulates, He motivates
2 Cor 5:14 – “The love of Christ compels us.”
We shall be lead by the peace of God. Is 55:12.
Phil 4:7 – “We shall go out with joy and be led forth with peace”, “the peace
that passes all understanding” - it’s not whether we understand it but whether
we obey.
If the team cannot confer how to act and proceed on a specific word - either

41

don’t do it (an army cannot fight with one half following one strategy and the
other half another strategy) or decide as a group you’ll choose the safer
option - least chance of backlash.
The law and method cuts off the voice of the shepherd. We cannot fall
back on previous experiences of similar prayer actions.
We are not led by fascination but revelation.
We are not led by our senses or understanding, but by faith (walk by faith
and not by sight) Rom 8:14. Remember it’s the sons of God (those that are
lead by the Spirit of God) that will free creation.
He will lead you everywhere no matter how difficult the situation.
Is 58:11 – “The Lord will guide you continually, And satisfy your soul in
drought, And strengthen your bones; You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.”
Never be hasty. God will show you how and what. Be patient.
Prov 19:2 – “Also it is not good for a soul to be without knowledge, And he
sins who hastens with his feet.”
We must always be careful that we do not move into prayer actions simply in
reaction to what the enemy is doing. We must be led by the Spirit of God.
Offence is sometimes the best defence. God wants to lead us to pray
even before the enemy can accomplish his purposes.
14.5 Attack
Never be in a hurry to apply the strategy.
We must always first deal with anything that might stand between us and God.
Again submitting every thought to Christ.
Ask God to guide you and show you what to pray even though you have already
prepared your strategy beforehand.
Always be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and hear Him. He might lead you to other
things first or together with the strategy received previously.
Act on God’s command.
God’s strategy might look strange to man but should be applied in humble
obedience and in faith. God instructed Gideon and his 300 men to come to the
outskirts of the Midianite camp, blow their trumpets, smash their pitchers and cry
out ”The sword for the Lord and Gideon!” The result – the Midianite army fled.
In obedience, Jehoshaphat appointed singers to go out before the army of Judah.
As the singers began to sing and praise the Lord, the men of Ammon, Moab and
Mount Seir rose against each other and destroyed one another. Jehoshaphat and
his people took the spoil.
Do not move out of the mandate God has given you. The mandate equals the
place of protection for you and your group.
15 The Holy Spirit – Your advisor
I think we often forget that the Holy Spirit is a person, i.e. someone we can
communicate with and who communicates with us. The scriptures clearly define His
desire to communicate with us.
John 14:16-17 (AMP)
16 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor,
Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with
you forever—
17 The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive (welcome, take to its heart),

42

ecause it does not see Him or know and recognize Him. But you know and
recognize Him, for He lives with you [constantly] and will be in you.
We are not made to live our lives in our own strength and our own power. This may
go against your grain and make you feel uncomfortable, but it is a truth. Our desire
for recognition leads us into an egocentric realm in which we have to make our
mark in and on life.
Our theology is often based on us telling God what He should be doing instead of
finding out who we are in Christ and what we’re directed to participate in, in and
through the Holy Spirit. We may spend our time whining for answers to our
problems instead of getting directives. This could be why the book of Acts starts the
explanation for life as we know it with:
Acts 1:4-8 (AMP)
4 And while being in their company and eating with them, He commanded them not
to leave Jerusalem but to wait for what the Father had promised, Of which [He said]
you have heard Me speak. [John 14:16, 26; 15:26.]
5 For John baptized with water, but not many days from now you shall be baptized
with (laced in, introduced into) the Holy Spirit.
6 So when they were assembled, they asked Him, Lord, is this the time when You
will reestablish the kingdom and restore it to Israel?
7 He said to them, It is not for you to become acquainted with and know what time
brings [the things and events of time and their definite periods] or fixed years and
seasons (their critical niche in time), which the Father has appointed (fixed and
reserved) by His own choice and authority and personal power.
8 But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit
has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and
Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.
We are to WAIT until we receive POWER. POWER is ABILITY, EFFICIENCY and
MIGHT. The reason for this is that we do not know what is coming; only the Father
knows that and has set it in motion. We will, however, be able to live out our season
in and through the ability, efficiency and might given to us by the Holy Spirit in
reliance (faith) that our Father knows what He is doing.
When last did you experience the presence and the power of the Holy Spirit
tangibly? This is the degree to which we should let our relationship with the Holy
Spirit develop. We should not become fearful when “tongues of fire” are upon our
head as He speaks volumes to our inner man, building His capacity in us. The idea
is not just to get instruction (word), but also the ability, efficiency and might to
perform His will in His ability.
Eph 3:19 (NLT)
May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully
understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes
from God.
So, our functioning may need to become a little more supernatural and powerful in
and by the Holy Spirit. Notice the words “power(s)” and”ability” in the following
passage:
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

1 Cor 12:8-11 (AMP)
To one is given in and through the [Holy] Spirit [the power to speak] a message of
wisdom, and to another [the power to express] a word of knowledge and
understanding according to the same [Holy] Spirit;
9 To another [wonder-working] faith by the same [Holy] Spirit, to another the
extraordinary powers of healing by the one Spirit;
10 To another the working of miracles, to another prophetic insight (the gift of
interpreting the divine will and purpose); to another the ability to discern and
distinguish between [the utterances of true] spirits [and false ones], to another
various kinds of [unknown] tongues, to another the ability to interpret [such]
tongues.
11 All these [gifts, achievements, abilities] are inspired and brought to pass by one
and the same [Holy] Spirit, Who apportions to each person individually [exactly] as
He chooses.
We have grown used to a very theoretical teaching model in which we sit in rows to
gain knowledge which we then go to try and apply in our own abilities.
We may now need to step this up into an experiential realm that seals in the words
(knowledge, wisdom, prophecy) with the seal of POWER of the Holy Spirit.
In this way we continually incorporate more of what we discover that the Lord has
already done for us, into our everyday life. The scriptures teach us that we should
walk and live by the Spirit, so let’s discover more of Him empowering our everyday
walking, talking, planning, relating and eating lives.
Let us forcefully and practically seek the Holy Spirit and His power in our lives.
16 The four sins [bloodshed, immorality, injustices (broken covenants) and idolatry]
16.1 Introduction - stewardship
16.1.1 Steward = Handling the property and possession belonging to somebody else.
16.1.2 The land belongs to God. We are just stewards of the land.
Lev 25:23 – 23 “The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine; for ye
are strangers and sojourners with me.”
Ps 24:1 - 1 “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fullness thereof; the world, and
they that dwell therein.”
Ps 115:16 – 16 “The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’S: but the earth
hath he given to the children of men.”
16.1.3 God appointed Adam as His representative and steward.
Gen 1:28 - To rule over the works of God’s hands.
Gen 2:15 - To take care of the garden.
= shamar - to hedge around, to keep, to guard, to watch as a watchman, to
protect = stewardship responsibility - to keep the land.
16.1.4 Stewardship = Managing
16.1.5 Stewardship = The material means by which the spiritual end is achieved.
(Douglas John Hall).
16.1.6 As stewards we have an influence over those things that fall under our sphere of
responsibility. The influence is either positive (Godly) or negative (wicked /
defiled), depending on how we fulfil our responsibilities.
16.1.7 Because man falls into sin, his stewardship has a negative effect on those things

that was placed under his authority over which he had responsibility.
16.2 Sins’ effects on the land - Biblical principles
16.2.1 The secular society we live in wants us to believe that we have the right and
freedom to do as we please, and that it has nothing to do with others = human
rights.
2 Pet 2:19 “While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of
corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in
bondage.”
16.2.2 But the Bible makes it clear that sin has grievous consequences - not only for
the one participating in it. We see the following effects of sin in the Word:
Sin has an effect on the individual and his family.
Gen 4:10, 11 - Cain
“And now art thou cursed... a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the
earth”.
Jos 7:24 - Achan
“And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah,... and his
sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his
tent, and all that he had:... And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned
them with fire, after they had stoned them with stones”.
Sin affects the next generations.
Lev 26:39-42 – 39 “And they that are left of you shall pine away in their
iniquity in your enemies’ lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall
they pine away with them. 40 If they shall confess their iniquity, and the
iniquity of their fathers,... 42 Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob...”
Ex 20:5-6 - ...I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of
the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them
that hate me;...
Sin has an effect on the nation.

“Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but
turned their backs before their enemies, because they were accursed:...”
1 Chron 21:14-15 - David
“So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy
thousand men. And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it:”
Sin affects the land.
Gen 3:17 – 18 “And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast... eaten of the
tree, of which I commanded thee,...Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the
ground for thy sake;... 18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee;...”
Gen 4:10-11 “And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened
her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand; 12 When thou tillest

the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength;...”
Sin brings curses.
Deut 28:15-16 “But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the
voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his
statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come
upon thee, and overtake thee: 16 Cursed shalt thou be....”
Sin brings judgment.
Gen 15:16 (when the measure is full)
“But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of
the Amorites is not yet full.”
Ezek 14
Sin gives the enemy a legal and territorial right.
Eph 4:27- 27 “Neither give place [topos - any portion or space marked off /
district] to the devil.”
Sin causes and influence of death.
Rom 6:23 – 23 For the wages of sin is death;
Jam 1:15 – 15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin,
when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
Are the abovementioned effects of sin not Old Testament? Did Jesus not deal with the
curse and did He not take God’s judgment upon Himself so that we are delivered from
these consequences?
16.2.3 The spiritual laws
The law of sin and death vs. the law of the Spirit and life.
Gal 4:3,9 - 3 “Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under
the elements of the world: [elementary teachings of the world]... 9 But now,
after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye
again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be
in bondage?
Gal 5:16-18 - 16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the
lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit
against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other:... 18 But if ye
be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
Rom 5:9 “Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be
saved from wrath through Him”.
Rom 8:1-6 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in
Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 2 For the law of
the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and
death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh,
God sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin,
condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of the law might be

46

fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. 5 For they that
are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the
Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be
spiritually minded is life and peace.
16.2.4 Scripture refers to two laws
The law of sin and death - the first / elementary principles.
The law of the Spirit and life - The new / latter principles.
16.2.5 That’s why Jesus did not come to abolish the law (first principles) but to fulfil it,
i.e. make it possible to be victorious over the law and live in such a manner that
we fulfil it (live above it).
Matt 5:17-19 17 “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I
did not come to destroy but to fulfil. 18 “For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and
earth pass away, one jot or one title will by no means pass from the law till all is
fulfilled. 19 “Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments,
and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but
whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of
heaven.
16.3 The four sins – Bloodguilt
16.3.1 Bloodguilt / the shedding of blood refer to:
The taking of innocent lives.
The untimely death of people.
The slaughter of suppressed people groups.
The shedding of animal blood for idolatrous purposes.
16.3.2 Cain sheds his brother’s blood.
Gen 4:10-12 10 “And he said, What hast thou done? The voice of thy brother’s
blood crieth unto me from the ground. 11 And now art thou cursed from the
earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy
hand; When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her
strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth.”
The blood calls from the earth, unto God, for revenge.
Cain (the individual) is cursed.
The ground / soil is cursed - it no longer produces according to its full
potential. (Refer to Almolonga, Gautamala - Transformation 1 Video.)
Cain becomes a fugitive and vagabond, an outcast and an exile.
16.3.3 Judas’ suicide
Acts 1:18-20 18 ”Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and
falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.
19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; in so much as that field is
called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood. 20 For it
is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man
dwell therein: and his office let another take.”

Num 35:33-34 “So ye shall not pollute the land wherein ye are: for blood it
defileth the land: and the land cannot be cleansed of the blood that is shed
therein, but by the blood of him that shed it.”

doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the
indignation be overpast. 21 For, behold, the LORD cometh out of his place to
punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall
disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.”
Lam 4:11-13 “The LORD hath accomplished his fury; he hath poured out his
fierce anger, and hath kindled a fire in Zion, and it hath devoured the
foundations thereof. 12 The kings of the earth, and all the inhabitants of the
world, would not have believed that the adversary and the enemy should
have entered into the gates of Jerusalem. 13 For the sins of her prophets, and
the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst
of her,”
Is 59:1-3 “Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save;
neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: 2 But your iniquities have separated
between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he
will not hear. 3 For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with
iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered
perverseness.”
Causes a separation / walls between us and God.
God cannot hear us.
God cannot help us.
God turns His face away from us / His face is hidden from us.
16.3.4 God’s true standard
Jam 4:1-2 “From whence come wars and fighting’s among you?Come they not
hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? 2 Ye lust, and have not: ye
kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not,
because ye ask not.”
Matt 5:21-22 “Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not
kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 22 But I say unto
you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger

of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in
danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of
hell fire.”

any beast to defile thyself therewith:... 24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these
things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you: 25 And
the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land
itself vomiteth out her inhabitants. 26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my
judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your
own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you: 27 (For all these
abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the

fornication with the Egyptians thy neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased
thy whoredoms, to provoke me to anger. 27 Behold, therefore I have stretched
out my hand over thee, and have diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered
thee unto the will of them that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which
are ashamed of thy lewd way.”
Your pre-ordained part / territory / food will be diminished.
You will be delivered to your enemy / those who hate you.
Jer 3:1-4 “They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and
become another man’s, shall he return unto her again? Shall not that land be
greatly polluted? But thou hast played the harlot with many lovers; yet return
again to me, saith the LORD. 2 Lift up thine eyes unto the high places, and see
where thou hast not been lien with. In the ways hast thou sat for them, as the
Arabian in the wilderness; and thou hast polluted the land with thy whoredoms
and with thy wickedness. 3 Therefore the showers have been withholden, and
there hath been no latter rain; and thou hadst a whore’s forehead, thou
refusedst to be ashamed”.

therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. 7 The new wine
mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh. 8 The mirth of tabrets
ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. 9 They shall
not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it. 10 The city of
confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in”.

committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood. 3 Therefore shall the
land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the

seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. 17 And I will set my face against you, and ye
shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall
flee when none pursueth you. 18 And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I
will punish you seven times more for your sins. 19 And I will break the pride of your

Gibeonites, and said unto them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of
Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn
unto them: and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and
Judah.) 3 Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and
wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the
LORD?”

16.6 The four sins – Idolatry
16.6.1 Definition of Idolatry
Idolatry is when we allow anyone or anything else to take priority in our lives
over God. It is always connected with worship and involves honouring a spirit
form other than God.
Idolatry takes place when we worship the creation and ourselves more than
our Creator (Rom 1:24-25).
Ex 20:3-6 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make
unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven
above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD
thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;..”.
God visits the iniquity of the fathers to the third and fourth generation.
Jer 16:11-21 “...Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the LORD,
and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have
worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law; 12 And
ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after
the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken unto me:
13 Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not,
neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and
night; where I will not shew you favour... 16 Behold, I will send for many
fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and after will I send for
many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from
every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. 17 For mine eyes are upon all
their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from
mine eyes. 18 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double;
because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the
carcases of their detestable and abominable things... the Gentiles shall come
unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have

inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit. 20 Shall a man
make gods unto himself, and they are no gods?”
The people will be cast out of the land to another country they do not know.
The land is defiled / polluted.
God will show them no favour.
The hand and power of God will be against the nation to punish their sin.
Jer 3:6-10 “Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? She is
gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there
hath played the harlot. And I said after she had done all these things, Turn
thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.
And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed
adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her
treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also.
And it came to pass through the lightness of her whoredom, that she defiled
the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stocks.”
Defiling / polluting the land (v.9).
16.6.2 God’s true standard
Jam 4:4 “Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the
world is enmity with God?”

inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.”
1 Sam 15:23 “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as
iniquity and idolatry.”
16.6.3 Identifying idolatry today
The primary focus in prayer for idolatry is repentance for worshipping or
revering something/someone other than the God who revealed Himself in Jesus
Christ, idolatry in the form of images, ideologies and philosophies that raised
itself against the knowledge of God, all forms of witchcraft, manipulation and
control through casting spells or curses, all forms of contacting spiritual forces
that are prohibited in the Bible and any rituals or initiation ceremonies through
which people, places or objects are dedicated to someone or something else

16.7 Curses as a result of sin
16.7.1 Deut 27 / 28
16.7.2 A curse is when the enemy has a free hand because God’s protection is
removed from man, because of sin. The enemy can then come to steal, kill and
destroy (Joh 10:10).
16.7.3 A curse = a prayer for injury, harm, or misfortune to befall someone.
16.7.4 In Bible times, a curse was considered to be more than a mere wish that evil
would befall one’s enemies; it was believed to possess the power to bring about
the evil the curse spoke.
16.7.5 We can see that a curse is negative words spoken over something / someone,
which has a negative manifestation as its final outcome.
Prov 33:3 “The curse of the LORD is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth
the habitation of the just.”
16.7.6 A curse can only have an effect if there is a legal right / cause.

Prov 26:2 “As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse
causeless shall not come.”
16.8 God’s judgment because of sin
16.8.1 Ezeg 14:13-21 “Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing
grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of
the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast
from it: 14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should
deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord GOD. 15 If I
cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be
desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:... 17 Or if I bring
a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off
man and beast from it:... 19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out
my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:... 21 For thus saith the
Lord GOD; How much more when I send my four sore judgments upon
Jerusalem, the sword, and the famine, and the noisome beast, and the
pestilence, to cut off from it man and beast?”
Famine (of God’s Word [Amos 8:11], physical hunger [Ps 105:16], lack of
harvest, famine of witness, famine of identity, famine in relationships).
Ecological devastation (floods, droughts, earthquakes, pests, volcanoes,
insect infestation, to much rain / sun / wind, etc.).
War (quarrelling, disunity, violence, murder and death, physical wars, hatred
and bitterness, partisanship).
Disease / pestilence (among animals, humans, etc.).
16.8.2 The purpose of God’s judgment is to bring people back to righteousness.
Is 26:9, 10 “With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit
within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the
inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. 10 Let favour be shewed to the
wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he
deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD.”
But in Jesus God has made a way for us to live in the higher law of the Spirit so
that curse and judgment will no longer have an affect on our lives.
16.9 Identificational repentance (the Biblical principles)
16.9.1 As Christians we need to acknowledge the reality of the effect sin has on our
communities.
16.9.2 The question is: Now that we know what effect sin has on the individual, family,
community, city, country and following generations, how do we deal with these
effects and consequences of these sins?
16.9.3 Again, the solution lies within Jesus Christ!
16.9.4 Dealing with sin = dealing with the legal right
Time can never bring the forgiveness of sin.
The Word says:
Heb 9:22 “And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood,
and without shedding of blood there is no remission.”

1 Joh 1:7 “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship
with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all
sin.”
We see therefore that only the blood of Jesus can remove sin.
1 Joh 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins
and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”
God pours His forgiveness out over those who ask Him forgiveness in the
Name of Jesus. Not only will God forgive but He will also cleanse us from all
unrighteousness. (Thereby working the opposite of sin that defiles, pollutes,
etc.)
Without repentance, we cannot expect the cleansing. Repentance and
confessing of our sin is therefore the key to the removing of sin and its
influences through the sacrifice of Jesus.
Repentance also needs to continue towards the people that you have sinned
against so that God’s restoration can come in the relationships between
peoples. (Matt 5:22-26)
16.9.5 What happens if the sinners have already died?
Can the present generation remove the effect of these sins?
Can the present generation repent of the sins of the previous generations
and ask for God’s forgiveness concerning those sins?
In Daniel’s time Israel is taken into captivity because of the accumulation of
sin of a few hundred years. When the full measure of sin was reached, God
poured out His judgment upon the nation.
Dan 9:4-20 - Daniel’s generation did not do all the sin he repents of, but they
were under the influence and effect of the sin of generations that were there
before them.
Daniel stands in proxy for his forefathers and identifies himself with their sin.
He repents on behalf of the sins of the present and past generations.
• v.5 - we have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly
and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments
- Daniel includes himself.
• v.8 - O Lord, to us belongs shame of face, to our kings, our princes, and
our fathers, because we have sinned against You.
• v.16 - O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger
and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy
mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers,
Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us. - He
asks for Gods wrath to be turned away = consequence of sin.
• v.20 Now while I was speaking, praying, and confessing my sin and the
sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord
my God for the holy mountain of my God, - Daniel confesses his and his
people groups sin. He prays this for Gods sake not for own comfort
sake.
Nehemiah also confesses the sins of his forefathers, the same as Daniel did.
Neh 1:6-11 “…please let Your ear be attentive and Your eyes open, that You
may hear the prayer of Your servant which I pray before You now, day and
night, for the children of Israel Your servants, and confess the sins of the

children of Israel which we have sinned against You. Both my father’s house
and I have sinned. 7 “We have acted very corruptly against You, and have not
kept the commandments, the statutes, nor the ordinances which You
commanded Your servant Moses. 8 “Remember, I pray, the word that You
commanded Your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter
you among the nations; 9 ‘but if you return to Me, and keep My
commandments and do them, though some of you were cast out to the
farthest part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and bring them
to the place which I have chosen as a dwelling for My name.’ 10 “Now these
are Your servants and Your people, whom You have redeemed by Your
great power, and by Your strong hand. 11 “O Lord, I pray, please let Your ear
be attentive to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants
who desire to fear Your name; and let Your servant prosper this day, I pray,
and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” For I was the king’s
cupbearer...”
In Neh 9 the whole gathering of the Jews repent of the sin of their ancestors
and their own generation.
The prerequisite for us, as priests of God, is to have clean lives and then
God’s salvation can be released.
Job 22:30 “He will even deliver one who is not innocent; Yes, he will be
delivered by the purity of your hands.”
16.9.6 Identification
Identification = to consciously identify yourself with a certain group or
category of people.
When the high priest had to go into the Holy of Holies, he was a
representative for the people, identifying with and confessing the sin of the
people as a whole. He brought a sacrifice for the whole nation’s sin to be
covered. In the Old Testament the priests looked forward to the salvation
that would be found in the Messiah. In the New Testament we look back to
the finished work of salvation in Jesus. Therefore we as the priests of God
bring the sacrifice of Jesus before the Father in order to see the cleansing of
sin in our communities.
In the New Testament all believers are supposed to be part of God’s royal
priesthood - 1 Pet 2:9.
As God’s priests every believer can come before God to pray / intercede by
identifying themselves with the sin and unrighteousness of their family,
generation, race, culture, city, sex, congregation, denomination, ideology etc.
Jesus stood as a representative, identifying with our sin, and taking it upon
Him as if it was His own, to bring salvation to all.
In the New Testament believers simply bring the blood of the sacrifice of the
true Lamb before God to remove the effect sin has on the corporate whole.
NB! NB! We cannot remove individual sin through identificational
repentance. Every person will stand before God for his own deeds and sin.
But we can remove the influence and consequence of other people’s sin on
our communities by repenting of these sins with Godly sorrow.
Who must confess the sins of a group
• Only Christians have access to God.
• Only saved people have to right to ask forgiveness for sins.
• Only Christians can bring the blood of the Lamb into situations.

59

• Only Christians can do identificational repentance.
The Church first need to deal with its own sin, before it can deal with the sins
of families, cities and nations. Chron 7:14
Godly repentance can never be a mere mechanical action.
2 Cor 7:10 “For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not
to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death. For observe this
very thing, that you sorrowed in a godly manner: What diligence it produced
in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what
vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you proved
yourselves to be clear in this matter.”
17 Understanding spiritual altars
17.1 What is an altar?
17.1.1 This forms part of the category of the sin of idolatry.
17.1.2 All three the other main sins (bloodshed, immorality, injustice/broken covenants)
can be connected back to the idolatry of our hearts.
17.1.3 Understanding idolatry
Ex 20:3,4 “Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make
unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven
above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD
thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the
children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;…”
Every altar has a god. How do we identify that God?
The image tells you about the god.
I Cor 10:20 “What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is
offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? 20 But I say, that the things which the
Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God: and I would not
that ye should have fellowship with demons. 21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the
Lord, and the cup of demons: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table, and
of the table of demons.”
Lev 17:7 “And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto demons, after
whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them
throughout their generations.”
Deut 32:17 “They sacrificed unto demons, not to God; to gods whom they
knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.”
Ps 106:37,38 “Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto
demons, 38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their
daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was
polluted with blood.”
N.B. - The spiritual warfare on the earth is a war of altars!
An altar is a place of:
• Sacrifices and offerings (candles, flowers, food, libations, gifts etc.)
• Worship (kneeling, praying, praising through song and literature etc.)
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

60

• Meeting with a god (calling for help, asking for intervention etc.)
You can identify altars by the actions that always take place there
• Symbolic.
• Emotional.
• Religious.
An altar is always more important than the building that it’s placed in.
17.2 An altar has a priesthood
17.2.1 All altars has a priesthood. The priesthood will be one of the following:
A Godly priesthood Priests appointed by God to service His altar (Levites
and New Testament priesthood of believers).
I Pet 2:9 “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation,
a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath
called you out of darkness into his marvellous light…”
A Godly priesthood ministers to God.
A demonic priesthood
1 Kin 18:26, 27 “And they took the bullock which was given them, and they
dressed it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even until noon,
saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And
they leaped upon the altar which was made.”
The priests of Baal fulfil a demonic priesthood.
Demonic priesthood ministers unto demons.
A mixed priesthood (mixed seed)
King Jeroboam fears that the 10 tribes of Israel would want to go to
Jerusalem to worship God. He therefore creates a counterfeit worship at
Bethel and Dan. This leads to total idolatry.
God can never be worshipped by mixing the truth with lies. It will end up in
demonic worship and idolatry.
I Kin 12:26-32 “And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom
return to the house of David: 27 If this people go up to do sacrifice in the
house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn
again unto their lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill
me, and go again to Rehoboam king of Judah. 28 Whereupon the king took
counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said unto them, It is too much for
you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up
out of the land of Egypt. 29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he
in Dan. 30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before
the one, even unto Dan. 31 And he made a house of high places, and made
priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi.”

17.3 The dynamics of an altar
Priests that ministers mixed seed does not minister unto God but unto
man. This will lead to giving legal right to demonic influences and right.
17.3.1 Spiritual gates
Abraham, a man who came from the background of idolatry understands the
concept and power of altars. In Gen 12:7, 8 we read that the first thing that
Abraham did when he came into the Promised Land was to build an altar
unto His God.
He also goes to Bethel and erects and altar there to call unto the Name of
the Lord.
Three generations later Jacob comes into the same area and here we see
the effect of Abraham's altar.
Gen 28:11-18 “And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all
night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and
put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep. 12 And he
dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached
to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
13 And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of
Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac: the land whereon thou liest, to
thee will I give it, and to thy seed; 14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the
earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the
north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of
the earth be blessed. 15 And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all
places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will
not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of. 16 And
Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place;
and I knew it not. 17 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place!
This is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.
18 And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put
for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it.”
Jacob sees a ladder with angels into the heavens and when He awakes he
declares that the place he was in was the gates to heaven.
17.3.2 Thrones
An altar ultimately establishes and strengthens a throne. Many spiritual
forces establish and increases their spiritual power and authority over areas
by means of altars. The actions at the altar establish and strengthen these
thrones as people covenant with spiritual powers.
The frequency, multitude and stature of people worshipping at the altar will
indicate the strength and influence of the specific altar and therefore the
strength and influence of the throne established over a certain area or
region.
Compare dynamics of an altar with the typology of the tabernacle of Moses.
Actions that establish, strengthen and maintain an altar and actions that
indicate altar:
• Covenants (to deities for protection / victory etc.)
• Dedications / consecrations (cities / nations dedicated to gods)

17.4 Dealing with altars
• Pilgrimages (increasing the international strength of an altar)
• Rituals
• Ceremonies
• Feasts (also think of modern feast that equals idolatry)
• Processions
17.4.1 Declaring God’s judgment over altars.
I Kin 13:2, 3 “And he cried against the altar in the word of the LORD, and said,
O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house
of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high
places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee.
3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which the LORD
hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall
be poured out.”
17.4.2 What we do with the altars will determine what the future will be.
2 Kin 18:3-7 - Hezekiah
“And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that
David his father did. 4 He removed the high places, and break the images, and
cut down the groves, and break in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had
made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he
called it Nehushtan. He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him
was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.
For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his
commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses. 7 And the LORD was
with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled
against the king of Assyria, and served him not. 8 He smote the Philistines,
even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to
the fenced city.”
2 Kin 23:1-25 - Josiah
Judg 6:25-26 - Gideon
True blessing and prosperity will only return if nations deal with their altars by
repenting of their idolatry, removing their ungodly altars and establishing
God’s altar.
Our aim therefore needs to be to repent of the idolatry that we find in our
communities or in countries, and speak God’s judgment against these altars.
Weaken (destroy) the altars of idolatry and establish the altar of the true and
only God, whom brought salvation unto man through the sacrifice of His son
Jesus Christ.
As part of this strategy it is always good to pray for the priesthood of
the idolatrous altar to come into the salvation of Jesus Christ. If there
is no priest there is no one to strengthen and maintain the altar.

18 Queen of Heaven
18.1 Introduction
18.1.1 Man was made from the earth (soil) - Adam means “red earth”.
18.1.2 In the ancient world we find the worship of earth as a goddess called the
Earth Mother. This was introduced after the fall into all ancient cultures.
18.1.3 Nimrod built a kingdom and introduced idolatrous worship.
The worship of the Queen of Heaven started through Semiramis and Nimrod.
Biblical references:
• Nimrod (Gen. 10:6-12) - Nimrod was the son of Cush, son of Ham, son
of Noah. He was a mighty warrior and hunter. He built Babel and
Nineveh and ruled Babylon.
• Semiramis was Nimrod’s wife. She is not mentioned in the Bible.
Traditionally, she is said to have been a woman of doubtful moral
values. While Nimrod was at war or hunting, she used to sleep around,
during which one such episode she fell pregnant. Planning to fake a
story to make people believe that this was Nimrod’s child, she learnt that
he had died on his trip. So she had to make up another. She told her
subordinates that Nimrod’s (he was the King and regarded as a god)
spirit had visited her and impregnated her. Hence the son that was
conceived should also be a King and god. She called him Tammuz.
• Now, since she was the queen, and had a king-god son, the well-known
mother-son worship started in Babylon. Semiramis became known as
“The Queen of Heaven”. This worship spread throughout the ancient
world. In Egypt Nimrod was known as Osiris, Semiramis as Isis, and
Tammuz as Horus.
• Tammuz: (Ezek. 8:14) - Then he brought me to the entrance to the north
gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw women sitting there, mourning
for Tammuz.
18.1.4 Ancient Babylon worshipped innumerable gods, which could influence human
affairs. They saw God as far away and unapproachable. The popular religion of
Babylon consisted of the worship of mother and child.
Semiramis was worshipped as the first queen of ancient Mesopotamia
(Babylon).
She was served by eunuchs and worship included unbridled lust and
licentiousness (immorality).
Semiramis was the “mother of god”, or “the queen mother”, or “the queen of
heaven”.
Together Semiramis and Nimrod developed the worship of Baal – the fertility
god, to rule over the land. All the ancient cities Nimrod built had the worship
of these fertility gods, represented by the moon.
In time Semiramis became the female part of the god (symbolised by the
moon), while Baal became the male part (symbolised by the sun).
Introducing a trinity – god, goddess and child.
18.2 The Queen of Heaven worship spreads
18.2.1 From ancient Mesopotamia, the worship of fertility spread to:
Babylon = Ishtar

64

Egypt = worship of Isis (Queen of Heaven), Osiris (god) and Horus (child),
• Isis is the goddess of wisdom with winged arms.
“I am she that is the natural mother of all things, mistress and governess
of all the elements, the initial progeny of worlds, chief of the powers
divine, queen of all that are in Hell, the principle of them all that dwell in
heaven. Manifested alone and under one form of all the gods and
goddesses. At my will the planets of the sky, the wholesome winds of the
seas, and the lamentable silences of hell be disposed. My name, my
divinity is adored throughout the world, in divers manners, in various
customs and by many names.” (Quoted from Lucius – the Golden Ass).
Canaan = Astarte, the wife of El and the mother of Baal. (Also known as
Ashtoreth).
Greece = Rhea, Cronus and their son Zeus.
Roman = Diana.
India = Isi and Iswara with the destructive part of the goddess known as Kali.
Asia = Cybele and her son Attis.
Southern Arabia = Atharath, the moon god.
18.2.2 This same principle later entered the church in Rome where today we find the
God the Father, Mary and Christ religion in the Roman Catholic Church. This is
intrinsically a pagan religion.
18.2.3 Throughout the world the Queen of Heaven surfaces one way or another. It
has succeeded much to spread her power to keep people from the Gospel.
18.2.4 How does the spirit operate today?
Adaptive deceptions.
Subtle interfaith movement.
Keeping people in spiritual darkness / veil them.
Culture.
Syncretism.
Jewellery.
18.2.5 Manifestation in the Church
The Queen of Heaven (Diana in Ephesus) lost her power in Ephesus when it
became the world centre for Christianity. Satan was through with Diana but
the QOH job was still to keep people in deception. “Would it be possible to
fabricate a counterfeit Mary within Christianity who could be empowered by
the QOH to do miracles and make appearances, and thus attract the
worship, even in Christian churches, that should be given only to Jesus
Christ?”
Mary is seen as the second Eve “The Mother of all living”.
In 1950 Mary was declared “Assumed into Heaven, Body and Soul”.
Newsweek: “Mary’s idol is actively worshipped 365 days a year with
candles, gifts of flowers and other things.
• Devotees bow down, honour her, and pray to her as if she were
somehow going to transmit their prayers to Jesus.
• Peter also notes that while he was in the Vatican a years earlier, that
there was a statue of the Diana of Ephesians in a room with other
statues of Christian saints (Newsweek Magazine, 25 Aug 1997, p.33).
• Many pictures of Mary have her standing on a crescent moon, or with

one around her head. Others have a crown on her head, and she is
called the “Queen of Heaven (Newsweek Magazine, 25 Aug 1997,
p.33).
Newsweek magazine reported in the 25 August 1997 issue, that the pope
had received a petition with 4 340 429 signatures encouraging him to declare
officially that the Virgin Mary is the “Co-Redemptrix” or co-redeemer with
Christ.
• While in Cuba in 1998, the pope crowned the idol of the Virgin of
Merced, declaring her to be the Queen of Cuba. It is the same idol
worshipped by the satanic cult known as Santeria (Newsweek
Magazine, 25 Aug 1997, p.34).
18.3 Other roles of the Queen of Heaven
Virgin: Defending modesty and love as the goddess of love. In this role, she can
have many children, but always stays a virgin. She can flirt with men, have sexual
relationships, but never marry. Names of her in this role: Diana, Artemis, Athena,
Minerva, Hathor, Ishtar.
Mother goddess and mother of gods. Names of her in this role are: Cybele, Rhea,
Juno, Hera.
Fertility, especially as the Queen Mother, through her son, the king. Names of her
in this role: Isis, Ishtar, Astarte, Mary, Cybele, Durga, Hera, Juno. In this role she is
the protectress of women in labour and newborn children.
As the mother goddess, her symbol was the moon, connecting all fertility cults
with the moon cycle. These connected to the monthly cycle of women
In the role as Cybele, she is a hermaphrodite (having both sexes.) Cybele’s
priests were eunuchs, dressed in women’s clothing and decked out like prostitutes.
The trance dance was used to worship her. Part of her cult was the castration of
males, so that she could take the male role. (Physical castration depicts here how
this spirit overthrows authority – this we find in all areas. Think about Jezebel
provoking the Ahab spirit.)
Warrior: Violent and avenging, demanding sacrifice, especially blood. Names:
Diana, Athena, Minerva, Ishtar As Diana, she carries the bow and arrow of a
hunter. In this role, she is a very demanding goddess, craving worship in forests
and especially worship of trees, where the oak became the focus in Europe. (Celtic
gods in Germany depicted with oak leaves on their foreheads)
In her role as Athena/Minerva, the warrior goddess, she became more closely
associated as city goddess. In this role she was a virgin, but lived among men as
one of them. One quote: "In all things my heart leans towards men, except in
marriage." This may have been the cause of feminism and gender confusion. In this
role she carries a shield to magically protect her.
Mistress of the Waters
18.4 The various symbols used with the Queen of Heaven
Male regenerative organ – phallus, obelisk, pillar, tree, etc. The cone is the origin
of the Mountain Mother, and symbol of Astarte. The cone as crown represents the
earth’s navel and is seen as a sign of stability and represents the womb. It later
became the pyramid. The great mother was worshipped as a cone on high places,
hills or mountains. Especially by women seeking fertility.
Moon
• Artemis / Diana – wear mural crown with moon disk. Worshipped as the Divine
Virgin, revered as deity of the sun and moon, Queen of Heaven and finally

ecame the Goddess of the New Moon.
Horns
• The horns of her crown are the curved posts of the gate between heaven and
earth, a channel of vital force.
Water - Lady of the Waters.
Stars
• Milky Way comes from the Great Mother Goddess. The milk-bringing mother is
shown with pronounced breasts – like Artemis. Five pointed star of Ishtar stands
for Mother Goddess.
Throne
• The throne controls all beneficial relations between heaven and earth; through it
the spiritual force passes to the rulers who occupy it. Enthroned female deities
use this seat of power handed down from the Creatrix.
Evil eye
• Inanna-Ishtar was called the Eye Goddess and had her own Eye temple at Tell
Brak in eastern Assyria. As such, the protection of this goddess is used against
the evil eye.
Black Vibrgin
• See point 17.5 below.
Lion
• They fulfilled the role as guardians of the great mother. Guardian of initiation.
Ishtar in Babylon and Cybele in Asia Minor.
Fertility is one of the functions of the queen of heaven.
The Queen of Heaven is seen as the giver of Life / Creator, even though she is
not the wife of a male god.
Mother, as protector. Psychic reality = symbol of beginning. Positive and negative
images – good and bad.
The Great Goddess – absolute rule, creative, destructive and regenerative powers.
The power of the Life Creatrix and Regeneratrix was in animals, plants, water,
mountains and stones.
Unity with nature
• Snake / serpent
o Immorality of the snake because of its renewal when shedding its skin.
o Link between dead and living.
o Embodies the energy of the ancestors.
Other functions
• Fertility, multiplication, and renewal.

In European transformation: Goddess religion went underground. Became
assimilated into Indo-European ideology. Athena, Minerva. Mother goddess lost her
ability to give birth without the intervention of a male god. Started to be invoked as
Queen – Queen Artemis, Regina.
In later Christian times, the Great Goddess fused with the Virgin Mary. She is still
connected with life-water, healing springs, trees, blossoms, fruits and harvests. She
is the Mother of God, huge and powerful, holding a tiny Christ on her lap.
Other names
• Great mother.
• She of the throne.
• Queen of the gods.
• Mistress of the gods.
• Many named lady of Heaven.
• Mother of God.
• Great Enchantress.
• Mistress of Magic.
• Speaker of Spells.
• Giver of barley.
• Teacher of agriculture.
18.5 Confirmation from popular writings: Black Virgin
Ean Begg ends his book, “Cult of the Black Virgin”, with: “Meantime let us hope that the
Virgin turns towards us her ‘most merciful face of night’ as we recall that, to the Sufis,
blackness is the final stage of the journey of the soul towards beatitude.” The following
confirms the abovementioned information, but does not even cover the tip of the
iceberg. It does, however, emphasise the Lady’s agility and persistence in
adapting to changing times, while holding fast to the same characteristics under
various names and guises. At first glance the following may seem like random
statements; however, there is a thread to be followed from the earliest times to the
recent ‘revival’ of the Black Virgin. Note the repetitive symbolism, characteristics
and recurring mythology.
18.5.1 Historic similarities
It is generally accepted that early images of the Madonna and Child are
based on Isis and Horus. The cult of the Black Virgin is a product of the 12 th
century and was established by the Gothic renaissance. However, legends
connect the 12 th century Black Virgin with much earlier origins dating from
the Merovingian period.
The Order of the Prieuré Notre Dame de Sion is a secret society in
France with features of an order of chivalry and religion, a political grouping
also interested in ancient esoteric wisdom and hidden mysteries. Its chief
aim is to restore the Merovingian bloodline to the throne. It is passionate
about the cult of the Black Virgin and holds a remarkable record of equal
rights for women. It has a predilection for the town of Blois as a meeting
place. It is here that the Black Virgin was venerated until the revolution.
Authors identify the Black Virgin as “who in the era that is drawing to a close
is called the Virgin Mary and who remains the eternal Isis.”
What is the link between the two cults (Prieuré and the Black Virgin)? A

huge idol to Diana / Arduina once towered over Carignan (north-east France)
between the Black Virgin sites of Orval, Avioth, Mezières near Stenay, where
Merovingian king (and saint), Dagobert II, was murdered in 679. One of
most important acts of Dagobert, when acceding to the throne after his Irish
exile, was to continue the ancient tradition of Gaul – worship of the Black
Virgin. He insisted the Black Virgin is Isis and her name is the Notre-
Dame of Lumière.
In Gaul, Isis is not more prominent as a universal goddess than Cybele and
Artemis / Diana who may also be considered precursors of the Black
Virgin. Maybe Prieuré’s insistence on Isis’s primacy is due to some
importance attached to an Egyptian connection. Victor Belot says in La
France des Pélérinages, referring to Sara, the black Egyptian servant who
accompanied her mistresses to Les Saintes Maries de la Mer: “Sara will give
birth to the cult of the Black Virgin… although many authors leave this
privilege to Isis, the Egyptian goddess.”
These suppositions are not mutually exclusive as Sara, beloved of the
Gypsies, is also said to be the avatar (incarnation) of Egyptian Isis.
St Mary Magdalene is said to be the most important of the three Marys to
‘arrive’ at what was the Isle of Ratis where Artemis, Isis and Cybele had
been worshipped since the 4 th century BC. Her cult is intertwined with
another repentant harlot, St Mary the Egyptian.
At Orléans, where there was an ancient cult of the Magdelen, St Mary the
Egyptian was known as the Black Virgin. If there is some linkage between
Isis, Egypt, Mary the Egyptian, Mary Magdalene and the Black Virgin – how
does this involve Prieuré?
Kings often claim illustrious ancestry, e.g. Mikado, son of Heaven; British
royal line descended from gods of the North and heroes of Troy; the
Ethiopian empire from the son of the Queen of Sheba and Solomon.
According to Lacordaire, Louis XI, a most enthusiastic votary of the Black
Virgin, saw Mary Magdalene as the royal line of France. Authors say she
brought with her to Les Saintes Maries de la Mer; her and Jesus Christ’s
son. Somehow he became the founder of the Merovingians – although this
honour is usually accorded to Mérovée (374-425), the son of King Clodio
and an aquatic beast from beyond the seas.
By the fourth century the religion of consensus was based on the worship of
the universal Great Mother and her son, sacrificed for the salvation of many.
At the same time, the Christian church of Constantine went through a strong
masculine phase. In Edessa, the head quarters of Syrian Christianity and
home of first Christian church, freer reign was given to the imagination. The
earliest version of the Assumption of Mary and the first hymns in her honour
stemmed from this era. To discourage heresy, while still honouring the
Virgin, Ephesus in AD431, declared her Theotokos – Mother of God – in
the home town of the first temple of Artemis and also of Mary in later
years.
18.5.2 Black Virgin cult in the West
The temple of Isis at Soissons was rededicated to the Blessed Virgin in the
fifth century and in 410 Cybele processed her ox-cart for the last time
through Autun. Le Puy was consecrated to Mary by AD 225.
Many of the Black Virgin shrines of France originated from the Merovingian
period (AD 500 – 750).

In the 12 th century, St Bernard of Clairvaux, born at Fontaines, possessed
his own Black Virgin on the outskirts of Dijon where the Lady of Good Hope
reigned. He received, while a boy, three drops of milk from the breast of the
Black Virgin of Châtillon. Inspired, he took the ailing Order of Cîteaux and
turned it into a vast, multinational enterprise spanning Europe and
prospering through hundreds of Abbeys from Russia to the West. The now
flourishing order was dedicated to “Our Lady”.
In 1128 he writes the Order of the Temple. The Templars’ founder
members were Bernard’s uncle, André de Montbard and Hagues de Pagen,
first Grand Master of the Temple and of the Prieuré. After the coup of
1307, a group of Templars awaiting death in the Castle of Chinon, composed
a prayer to “Our Lady”, acknowledging Bernard as the founder of her
religion. He wrote numerous hymns to her and approximately 280 sermons
on the Song of Songs on the theme of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. “I
am black, but I am beautiful, O ye daughters of Jerusalem” is a
recurring refrain of the Black Virgin cult.
Bernard is said to have understanding of her as “that lady who lies at home
paralysed and grievously tormented”, (remember the focus on women’s
rights in the cult of the Black Virgin). Bernard is said to be her first
troubadour.
Neither the cult of the Black Virgin, nor the act of the troubadours died during
the 12 th century, but the flowering of the feminine principle to which it gave
birth, suffered a blow when Rome allied itself with the king of France. The
courts of inquisition replaced the “courts of love” and witch hunts
followed.
In the 19 th century, popular enthusiasm broke through the intellectual
superiority of the clerisy in direct experience of “Our Lady’s” manifestations
in Lourde, La Salette, rue du Bac and Knock. A wave of emotion reanimated
ancient devotion to the Black Virgin and many were solemnly crowned by the
authority of the Pope during 1860–90. More apparitions reported - either
viewed as hysterical mass hallucinations or psychic realities.
The most striking and influential sociological developments of the past
century is surely the sexual revolution. The return of the Black Virgin to the
forefront of collective consciousness coincided with the psychological need
to reconcile sexuality and religion. She is said to: “help her supplicants
circumvent the rigidities of patriarchal legislation and is traditionally on the
side of the physical processes – healing the sick, easing the pangs of
childbirth, making milk flow.” The Black Virgin apparently knows how to
break the rigid masculine rules, bring dead babies back to life long enough to
receive baptism and escape from Limbo to paradise. She looks with
tolerance on the sins of the flesh as when she acts as midwife to a pregnant
abbess or stands in for a truant nun tasting for a time the illicit pleasures of
sin. Politically, she is in favour of freedom and integrity, rights of people, and
for cities and nations to be independent from outside interference.
18.5.3 Influence from the east
The Queen of the South (Sheba) also has the title of the Countess of
Toulouse. This city’s Black Virgin, La Dourade, originally the goddess of
wisdom, is also known as Pallas Athene.
The founder of the Ethiopian dynasty is Menelek (Son of the Wise), offspring
of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. The Ethiopian constitution of 1955

70

states that Haile Selassie was a direct descendent of Menelek. The Queen’s
name is also Makeda, the fiery one, and it is said that it was her fiery star
that led the Magi to Mary at the birth of Jesus.
Author Gérard de Nerval (1808 – 55) says of the Queen of the South: “…
such as I saw her in my dreams … crowned with stars, in a turban
sparkling with the colours of the rainbow … her face is olive-tinted … one
foot is on a bridge, the other on a wheel … one hand rests on the highest
rock of the mountains in the Yemen, the other stretched out to the heavens
holds … the flower of fire … the celestial serpent opens its maw to seize it
… the Sign of the Ram appears twice in the zodiac, which reflects the face
of the Queen as in a mirror, a face which takes on the features of St Rosalie
… she appears, crowned with stars, ready to save the world … on the peak
of the highest mountain of the Yemen a wonderful bird is singing in a cage …
it is the talisman of the new ages … Leviathan with black wings flies heavily
around … beyond the sea there rises another peak on which is written this
name: Mérovée.”
Nerval hanged himself from a lamppost at dawn on 26 January 1855 with the
manuscript (from which this quote is taken) in his pocket. In 1862, Gounod
produces the opera, The Queen of Sheba, based on this story.
A mentor of Nerval and successor of Charles Nodier, Grand Master of
Prieuré de Sion, Victor Hugo, calls her by her name under which she is
now presenting herself to the world: Lilith.
18.5.4 Lilith
Alfred de Vigny, friend of Nodier, writes of her as a spirit of the night;
Adam’s mistress, rival and enemy of Eve and her children. He makes of her
Satan’s eldest daughter, black soul of the world, great woman of the
shadow, who is fate and Isis. Lilith and Isis have in common their
knowledge of the secret name of God. She is said to have come to stand for
feminine rebellion against masculine denial of women’s right to
freedom and equality. In the earliest known portrait of her in 1950 BC in the
British Museum, she is depicted as a beautiful, winged, naked woman with
feet of a bird, standing on two lions and flanked by a pair of owls with
an ephah for measuring grain in her hand. Her turban reminds of that of the
Black Virgin of Meymac and her hands are raised hieratically (priestly) to
shoulder height.
The task of the maiden Lilith in Erech is to gather men from the streets and
bring them to the temple of the goddess. She is best known as one of the
Sumerian demons of storm and night. Her main function was as a vampirish
succuba (evil spirit), with its original nest in the middle of a Huluppa tree
(willow) – a position much favoured by many Black Virgins. She is said
to have power over all new born babies – eight days for boys and 20 days
for girls. Children out of wedlock belong permanently to her. An amulet with
angels’ names is said to protect babies. The power of life and death over
new born babies are also attributed to Black Virgins. In the 16 th century she
is seen covered with hair from head to foot, like Mary Magdalene, Mary
the Egyptian and other repentant harlots.
Lilith is strongly linked to the cabbala and associated with the following:
Isaiah 34:14, screech owl (name still given to witches of Italy and
Switserland); the Septuagint calls her Lamia; the French Jerusalem Bible
has Lilith (Job 18:15) dwelling in the tent of the wicked. She is also depicted
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

71

as the Queen of Sheba in the Cabbala; a concubine of Abraham (Hagar);
one of the two women before Solomon about the dead baby’s ownership;
Moses’ first wife Zipporah (also re-incarnated as his second wife); Rahab
the Harlot, said to have seduced the prophet Elijah without his knowledge
and had a child by him. The Order of Our Lady on the Mount Carmel (1154)
by St Berthold and Frankish hermits claims continuity with and spiritual
descent from Elijah and the sons of prophets. The Carmelite churches are
associated with the Black Virgin.
18.5.5 Lamias and sphinxes: Lamia (name of Lilith in Septuagint) is originally a
bisexual Libyan Queen, the daughter of Belus, beloved by Jupiter, robbed of
her children by the jealous Juno. She is the Libyan version of the Egyptian
goddess, Neith, similar to Athene or Anath. She is said to devour young
children. The sphinxes are female or hermaphrodite with animal attributes that
carry off boys and youth to satisfy their lusts. Lilith is also shown as a mixture of
wolf, lion and scorpion. Many dragons, vipers and lizards are found near
Black Virgin sites – symbolising the presence of a goddess or priestess.
18.5.6 Inanna: She is a universal goddess of the heavens, fertility, war, justice,
sexual love and healing, who was demoted and demonised. She becomes
like Lilith, the Shekinah of the exile and like Jesus in Matt 8:20, not having a
place to rest. She descends to hell to attend the funeral of the raging bull of
heaven. In the underworld she is stripped, humiliated, whipped and hung on a
peg. On the third day, Enki, god of waters and wisdom, releases her. She
returns to the world of light and assumes power of Ereshkigal – Queen of the
Dead.
18.5.7 Kali: Inanna is a precursor to Ishtar, Astarte, Aphrodite and Venus. Kali is a
contemporary of Inanna – goddess of time. Kali is also one of Lilith’s 14
names.
18.5.8 Neith: The Goddess of Egypt, conveying many qualities of the Black Virgin.
She is the oldest and wisest of goddesses and is considered a universal
goddess like Isis. On her temple is written: “I am all that has been, that is and
that will be. No mortal has yet been able to lift the veil which covers me.” Her
epithet calls her Libyan (Lamia). As the patroness of marriage, she wears a
red crown and forms with hand and feet the gateways to life and death. She is a
self-fertilising virgin and her symbol is the shuttle with which she weaves the
fate of individuals and the universe. The French word for shuttle is navette, it
also means incense-boat and refers to the roll eaten in honour of the Black
Virgin of Candlemas in Marseille.
18.5.9 Anath: She unites within her opposing qualities, virginal and whorish,
maternal and destructive. The apostate Jews in Egypt at the time of Jeremiah
worshipped divine wisdoms in the form of the “mighty virgin Anath”. Ramases II
(Pharaoh of Exodus) refers to her as “Queen of Heaven and mistress of all the
gods”. She is associated with Yahweh as His female companion, in the
same manner as Christ and Mary Magdelene is linked by the Gnostics of
Alexandria. Anath is a possible direct predecessor of the Black Virgin, La
Daurade of Toulouse, originally the statue of Pallas Athene. Anath’s legend
links her to the web-footed Queen of The South, La Reine Pédauque – credited

72

with building the aqueduct, which supplied Toulouse with water.
18.5.10 Hathor: The fairy god mothers of the Egyptians – seven or nine in
number – appeared at birth to prophesy a baby’s fate. Hathor is the
Aphrodite of the Greeks. Said to be a bestower of joy and love, a celestial
cow who nourished all living creatures with milk (including the Pharaoh).
She shares the title of Queen of the West with Neith and is also known as
the Lady of the Sycamore – a symbol she shares with Nut and Diana.
Like Lilith, she is said to be the ladder on which the righteous could
ascend to heaven.
18.5.11 Sekhmet: More bloodthirsty than any other warrior goddess, she is the
lion-headed deity that boasts “When I slay men, my heart rejoices.” She is
described as personification that brings light out of ignorance.
18.5.12 Classical tradition
The feminine principle is represented by the Black Virgin, White
Virgins and a host of female saints. As Christianity asserted itself,
the great bronze and marble statues of pagan deities were
destroyed. Smaller household images or votive offerings, hidden
in earth, clefts of rocks, or hollow trees survived, particularly in
the country.
At the time of the crusades original pagan statues were brought
back from the east by returning warriors as Madonnas. Apart
from the candle smoke theory (given as reason for blackness), this is
the most widely held explanation of the existence of the Black Virgin
in Europe.
Three images that continued their fame through Europe, represented
as black, are Artemis, Isis and Cybele.
18.5.13 Artemis
Artemis was originally worshipped in Greece. Her name is derived
from “Artamas”, meaning slaughterer, giving a possible link with a
Black Virgin with a special affinity with the Guild of Butchers (Murat).
The best known image of Artemis is that of Ephesus, a Roman
alabaster and bronze statue showing her with a black face, hands and
feet. On her head she has a mural crown or tower and on her dress
images that include bulls, goats, deer and a bee. The Phocaeans
brought the image to Gaul in 600 BC where they founded Massilia,
now Marseille. There is a great incidence of Black Virgins in the
areas where the Phocaeans had settlements – Augergne,
Provence, Rhône, Catalonia and eastern Pyrenees. Artemis is said
to be hostile to love and punishes sexual transgressors severely.
Unawakened little girls are her favourite. Boys in Sparta, on the other
hand, are flogged in front of her statue in a combination of fertility rites
and painful puberty initiations.
A notable cultic feature of these images is that they like to make
their homes in trees where they are later ‘found’. Artemis is also
identified with Hecate, an underworld power (Notre-Dame de Sous-
Terre). As the invincible Queen of the Dead, she resembles the Black
Virgin, Lady of Avioth. The latter was found in a hawthorn tree, where
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

73

dead babies are offered to the Black Virgin (Artemis and Hecate both
care for babies and bestow a quick death).
In Marseille, Notre Dame de Confession presides in a crypt over
the tombs of martyrs. Hecate presides over purification rites, so
February, month of the dead which begins with the feast of the
purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is her time. Torchlight
processions in honour of Persephone and Lupercalia take place
during this month. Dogs and goats are sacrificed to a wolf god and
young women are ritually beaten with goat skin thongs. This tradition
continues with the “beating of the bounds”. Candlemas (sic) is the
oldest feast of the Virgin and represents the presentation of Christ in
the Temple.
18.5.14 Cybele
First worshipped as a black stone, to the Romans she was the
“Magna Mater”, the Great Mother. In the third century AD, Cybele is
the supreme deity of Lyon. She is presented as a mountain
goddess, accompanied by lions, a deity of cities and frontier citadels,
protecting people from war and pestilence. Her name is linked with
words for crypt, cave, head and dome, distantly related to ka’aba,
the cube-shaped holy of holies in Mecca that contains the
feminine black stone venerated by Islam. In Lyon her temple (86 x
53 m) was supplanted by the great basilica of Notre-Dame de
Fourvière (the old forum) and oratory of the Black Virgin.
A souvenir of Cybele persisted in Lyon until the 16 th century in the
form of a statue of the goddess Copia (Abundance) in the Church of
St Ettiene. On Christmas night, women presented candles and
offerings of fruit and animals to the goddess and departed walking
backwards. In a painting of the 19 th century by Orsel in the basilica,
Mary is enthroned in the sky, saving her city Lyons. Under her
throne there is a lion. As lionesses lick their cubs into shape and
life, Black Virgins apparently help infants speak and protect their
‘cubs’.
18.5.15 Isis
Prieuré insists that the Black Virgin is Isis, whether worshipped
under other names or not. She is said to be the true goddess of
France – Our Lady of Light. According to the Golden Ass of
Apuleius, she says of herself: “I am Nature, the universal Mother,
mistress of all the elements, primordial child of time, sovereign of all
things spiritual, queen of the dead, queen also of the immortals, the
single manifestation of all gods and goddesses that are. … the
primeval Phrygians call me Pessinuntica (i.e. Cybele), Mother of the
gods, the Athenians, spring from their own soil, call me Cecropian
Artemis; for the islanders of Cyprus I am Paphian Aphrodite; for the
archers of Crete I am Dictynna, for the trilingual Sicilians, Stygian
Proserpine (Persephone); and for the Eleusianians their ancient
Mother of the Corn (Demeter). Some know me as Juno, some as
Bellona of the Battles; others as Hecate, others again as Rhamnusia
(Nemesis?), but both races of Aethiopians, whose lands the morning
sun first shines upon, and the Egyptians who excel in ancient

74

learning, worship me with ceremonies proper to my god-head, call me
by my true name, namely, Queen Isis.”
Other symbols identified with Isis: the rose, lotis or Nile water lily,
boat, nursing mother, ankh, colour green. Diana is the queen of
night for witches; Isis for masons and Rosicrucians. In terms of
cities Lyon is ruled by Cybele, Marseille by Artemis, Toulouse by
Pallas Athene (Queen of the South), and Paris by Isis.
In etymology (study of words), there is some importance attached to
the syllable “is” – a pre-Celtic word for holy place where there is a
subterranean current of water or energy that creates special
conditions for divinatory and initiatory purposes. Paris = Par-Isis
= grave or barque of Isis.
18.5.16 Other goddesses
Aphrodite and Venus: Often represented as black. The main
survivor of Venus cult in Christianity is Magdelen and allied saintly
penitents.
Atherel / Minerva: Depicted as a little carving of an owl that brings
good luck on outside wall of church Notre Dame of Dijon. Name of
Black Virgin is Notre-Dame de Bon Espoir. In Toulouse, church of La
Daurade built on site of temple of Pallas Athene.
Bona Dea: The Black Virgin called “La Bonne Mère” may derive from
her as would Sicilian St Agatha (Good). Place in calendar is 5
February, makes her part of the Candlemas cycle.
Ceres / Demeter: Corn goddess and minder of children. Sometimes
shown as black.
Fortuna / Fors: Linked to wheel of fate and ports, and the forum.
Juno / Hero: Goddess of marriage and childbirth, often enthroned,
carrying pomegranate and a flower.
Vacuna: Associated with Mars.
Vesta / Hestia (Shining one): Virgin fire goddess. Veiled and
symbolising real motherhood.
18.5.17 Gods associated with Black Virgin
Apollo (sun god)
Hercules (wanderer)
Hermes / Mercury
Janus: Two faces, looking to past and future.
Jupiter: Perceived as too heavenly to be associated directly with
Black Virgin, but he looks down from his mountain sites onto a
number of her shrines.
Mars: Associated animals are the wolf, horse and woodpecker held
by child on lap of Notre-Dame de Verdelais and possibly Black Virgin
of Einsiedeln.
Saturn: Merovingian holy place of Stenay connected with Saturn.
Saturnalia began 23 December, feast day of St Dagobert.
18.5.18 Natural religion
Many Black Virgins are found in forests or bushes. The statue is
then taken to the parish church, only to miraculously return by night

natural phenomena, such as healing waters, striking geographical
features, such as extinct volcanoes, confluences and subterranean
lines of force.
Original Black Virgins of Chartres and Longpont probably started life
as Celtic fertility idols. In 1984 about 200 small wooden statues
excavated from pool in sanctuary of Sequana, near source of Seine.
Celts considered rivers to be goddesses – also wells, lakes, springs
honoured by images of feminine, life-giving spirit, sometimes in the
form of a single goddess, but often triple Matres.
Symbolic value of the tree is hermaphroditic – manifestation of
phallic power and firmness linking earth and heaven, but life-force
interpreting the divine will speaks with the voice of the goddess.

18.5.21 Saints of the Christian era with affinity to Black Virgin
St Dagobert.
Saint Roseline de Villeneuve (1263-1329): Feast day 17 January,
great day in Merovingian blood line. Some authors see St Rosaline as
Gerard de Nerval’s “Queen of the South”.
St Sulpice (647): Contemporary of St Dagobert. Also feast day on 17
January. Connections with Prieuré.
St Vincent de Paul (1580 – 1660): Known to have fervent devotion to
Black Virgin in Paris, Notre-Dame du Paix, Notre-Dame de Bonne
Dèlivrance.
Gerbert of Aurillac, Pope Sylvester II (940 – 1003): Said to have

77

feminine quality – wisdom. Also associated with Nerval’s Queen of the
South.
St Anne: Cult of the Mother of Our Lady in Brittany. Her cult generally
replaces that of Black Virgin.
St John the Baptist: Merovingians also never cut hair. Templars also
said to be his disciples. Apparently he remained master, because his
knowledge is said to have been greater.
18.5.22 Symbolic meaning
“The Black Goddess is so far more than a world of hope whispered
among the few who have served their apprenticeship to the White
Goddess. She promises a new pacific bond between men and women
… in which the patriarchal marriage bond will fade away … the Black
Goddess has experiences good and evil, love and hate, truth and
falsehood in the person of her sisters … she will lead man back
to that sure instinct of love which he long ago forfeited by
intellectual pride.” Robert Grave in his book, Mammon and the Black
Goddess.
Striking characteristics – extraverted, uninhibited sexuality.
Demand that absolute equality and degree of independence for
women be recognised by men.
Can resuscitate dead babies long enough to receive baptism and
escape limbo.
Would often find cult of Black Virgin and Mary Magdalene in same
place.
Cult of Black Virgin linked to hidden secrets of past, i.e. descent
of Mérovée from child of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. Said she is
“the spirit of evolutionary consciousness that lies hidden in matter”.
Stand for healing power of nature, alchemy principle that works
against nature can only proceed in and through nature.
Often associated with esoteric teaching and initiation – wisdom
always cries on rooftops or street corners (Proverbs) and spirit of this
world always punishes those who buy her wares.
Looking at Tarot cards “To the more licentious it represented the
‘virgin quality’ that is gained, not by pure living, but by plunging into
the abyss of sexual indulgence; there we have the exaltation of the
prostitute as a saint and the saint treated as one who is ‘impure’.
Hence, Gypsies often call this the Magdelene card and say that it
is under the patronage of Sara, the Negress Saint of the
Romany.” (Rakoczi)

18.6 Influences on “Christian Feasts”
18.6.1 The term Easter is not of Christian origin.
It is named after Isthar, another form of Astarte, one of the titles of the
Chaldean goddess - the Queen of Heaven.
She was worshipped through fertility symbol such as eggs, rabbits etc.
The festival of Pasch held by Christians in post–apostolic times was a
continuation of the Jewish feast, but was not instituted by Christ, nor was it
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

78

connected with Lent.
From this Pasch the Pagan festival of Easter was quite distinct and was
introduced into the apostate Western religion, as part of the attempt to adapt
Pagan festivals to Christianity.
18.6.2 Christmas
Worship of the tree during Christmas.
Cybele (the Queen of Heaven worshipped in Asia Minor) had a son who was
called Attis. To commemorate his death a pine tree was brought into the
houses and decorated with purple decorations as worship to Attis and
Cybele.
Jer 10:1-3
“Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:
2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not
dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. 3 For
the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest,
the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. 4 They deck it with silver
and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.”
18.7 The political influence of the Queen of Heaven
18.7.1 Europe was consecrated to Mary by the Vatican in 1309, and placed under her
patronage.
18.7.2 The Shrine of “Our lady of Europe”, in Gibraltar was instituted at the
consecration. The shrine is being renovated with a £200.000 grant from the EU
about which the Vatican announced: “It is the prayer of His Holiness that the
shrine will be an evermore effective centre of unification, a place where, under
the patronage of Mary, the human family will be drawn evermore closely into a
fraternal unity and peaceful co-existence”.
18.7.3 Most countries in Europe were dedicated to the Queen of Heaven somewhere in
their history.
18.8 Scriptural base for the Queen of Heaven
18.8.1 Jer 7:17
“Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of
Jerusalem? 18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the
women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour
out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. 19 Do
they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to
the confusion of their own faces?”
18.8.2 Jer 44:17-19
“But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to
burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her,
as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of
Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and
were well, and saw no evil. 18 But since we left off to burn incense to the
queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted
all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. 19 And

when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink
offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out
drink offerings unto her, without our men? 20 Then Jeremiah said unto all the
people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given
him that answer, saying, 21 The incense that ye burned in the cities of Judah, and
in the streets of Jerusalem, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes,
and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them, and came it not
into his mind? 22 So that the LORD could no longer bear, because of the evil of
your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed;
therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without
an inhabitant, as at this day. 23 Because ye have burned incense, and because
ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD,
nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this
evil is happened unto you, as at this day. 24 Moreover Jeremiah said unto all the
people, and to all the women, Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah that are in
the land of Egypt: 25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye
and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your
hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to
burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto
her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.”
Here we see that Israel is charged with idolatry:
• v. 18. Their idolatrous respects are paid to the queen of heaven, the
moon, either in an image or in the original, or both. They worshipped it
probably under the name of Ashtoreth, or some other of their
goddesses, being in love with the brightness in which they saw the
moon walk, and thinking themselves indebted to her for her benign
influences or fearing her malignant ones (Job 31:26).
• The worshipping of the moon was much in use among the heathen
nations (Jer. 44:17, 19). Some read it the frame or workmanship of
heaven.
• The whole celestial globe with all its ornaments and powers was the
object of their adoration. They worshipped the host of heaven (Acts
7:42). The homage they should have paid to their Prince they paid to the
statues that beautified the frontispiece of his palace; they worshipped
the creatures instead of Him that made them, the servants instead of
Him that commands them, and the gifts instead of Him that gave them.
• With the Queen of Heaven they worshipped other gods, images of
things not only in heaven above, but in earth beneath, and in the waters
under the earth; for those that forsake the true God wander endlessly
after false ones.
• To these deities of their own making, they offer:
- Cakes for meat-offerings, cakes, possibly in the shape of figurines or
crescent moons, were made for the gods of the heavens by the
inhabitants of Jerusalem (Jer 7:18) and incense burnt as to a deity
(Jer 44:17-19, 25). The unusual word is rendered as ‘queen’ and
may be Phoenician, a title of Astarte, Assyrian. Ishtar. It may refer to
*Ashtoreth or to the Canaanite Anat (so Egypt. 19th century
*Bethshean); cf. the female personal name (1 Ch. 7:18).
Alternatively, this may be a rare writing of ‘heavenly handiwork’ (i.e.
stars), also denoting an idolatrous practice.

- and pour out drink-offerings, as if they had their meat and drink
from them and were obliged to make to them their acknowledgement
and see how busy they are, and how every hand is employed in the
service of these idols, according as they used to be employed in their
domestic services.
- The children were sent to gather wood.
- The fathers kindled the fire to heat the oven, being of the poorer
sort that could not afford to keep servants to do it, yet they would
rather do it themselves than it should be undone.
- The women kneaded the dough with their own hands, for perhaps,
though they had servants to do it, they took a pride in showing their
zeal for their idols by doing it themselves.
18.8.3 Acts 19:24-36
“For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines
for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen; 25 Whom he called together
with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we
have our wealth. 26 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but
almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much
people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands: 27 So that not
only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the
great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be
destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth. 28 And when they heard
these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of
the Ephesians. 29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught
Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they
rushed with one accord into the theatre... 35 And when the town clerk had
appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that
knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great
goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter? 36 Seeing then
that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do
nothing rashly. 37 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither
robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.”
Paul preached against this goddess. Left Ephesus. Later John, the apostle
returned and confronted this goddess in her temple. The whole area became
Christianised. Ephesus became the first Christian capital of the ancient
world.
John brought with him Mary, the mother of Jesus. She died at Ephesus and
was buried there. In AD 380 the shrine of Diana was rededicated to Mary.
Mary was officially declared the mother of God, not only the mother of Jesus.
Since then the worship of Mary became official in the Roman Catholic
Church.
The Church fathers discouraged Mary worship, recognising her as one with
the ancient mother goddesses such as Aphrodite, Ishtar, Isis, Shakti, etc. By
the Middle Ages she was firmly entrenched in the hearts of the common folk.
All great cathedrals were temples in honour of the “Notre Dame”.
With the spread of Christianity, the worship of Mary, also came to other
nations, which syncretised it to suit their own religions. As such, a weak
gospel came to many nations with no or little confrontation of ancient rituals
of witchcraft.

18.8.4 Rev 17
“1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked
with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the
great whore that sitteth upon many waters: 2 With whom the kings of the earth
have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made
drunk with the wine of her fornication. 3 So he carried me away in the spirit into
the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of
names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was
arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones
and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness
of her fornication: 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY,
BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS
OF THE EARTH. 6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints,
and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with
great admiration. 7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I
will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which
hath the seven heads and ten horns. 8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is
not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they
that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book
of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was,
and is not, and yet is. 9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven
heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. 10 And there are seven
kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he
cometh, he must continue a short space. 11 And the beast that was, and is not,
even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 12 And the
ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as
yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. 13 These have one
mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 14 These shall
make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for He is Lord of
lords, and King of kings: and they that are with Him are called, and chosen, and
faithful. 15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the
whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”
The Queen of Heaven is the “great harlot who sits on many waters”. The
waters where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and tongues.
18.9 Declarations - destruction of the Queen of Heaven
18.9.1 Isaiah 47 - “Lady of the Kingdoms”
“ 1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the
ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more
be called tender and delicate. 2 Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy
locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers. 3 Thy
nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take
vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man. 4 As for our redeemer, the LORD
of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel. 5 Sit thou silent, and get thee into
darkness, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called, The
lady of kingdoms. 6 I was wroth with my people, I have polluted mine inheritance,
and given them into thine hand: thou didst shew them no mercy; upon the
ancient hast thou very heavily laid thy yoke. 7 And thou saidst, I shall be a lady

for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst
remember the latter end of it. 8 Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to
pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none
else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of
children: 9 But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the
loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection
for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine
enchantments. 10 For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None
seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast
said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me. 11 Therefore shall evil come
upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall
upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon
thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know. 12 Stand now with thine
enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast
laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest
prevail. 13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the
astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save
thee from these things that shall come upon thee. 14 Behold, they shall be as
stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the
power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
15 Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy
merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none
shall save thee.”
18.9.2 Nahum 3:4,5
“ 4 Because of the multitude of the whoredoms of the wellfavoured harlot, the
mistress of witchcrafts, that selleth nations through her whoredoms, and families
through her witchcrafts. 5 Behold, I am against thee, saith the LORD of hosts;
and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy
nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame. 6 And I will cast abominable filth upon
thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a gazingstock. 7 And it shall come
to pass, that all they that look upon thee shall flee from thee, and say, Nineveh
is laid waste: who will bemoan her? Whence shall I seek comforters for thee?”
Nineveh = “abode of Ninus”
• The capital of the ancient kingdom and empire of Assyria.
• The name appears to be compounded from that of an Assyrian deity,
“Nin,” corresponding, it is conjectured, with the Greek, Hercules, and
occurring in the names of several Assyrian kings, as in “Ninus,” the
mythic founder, according to Greek tradition, of the city.
• Nineveh is situated on the eastern bank of the river Tigris, 550 miles
from its mouth and 250 miles north of Babylon.
• Assyria was known to the Jews as “the land of Nimrod”.
• In the 2nd and 3rd millennia BC Nineveh was known primarily as a
religious centre. The healing powers of its statue of the goddess Ishtar
were renowned as far afield as Egypt.
18.9.3 Rev 18

great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily
with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become

the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every
unclean and hateful bird. 3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of
her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her,
and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her
delicacies. 4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her,
my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her
plagues. 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered
her iniquities. 6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her
double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment
and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow,
and shall see no sorrow. 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death,
and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is
the Lord God who judgeth her. 9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed
fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her,
when they shall see the smoke of her burning, 10 Standing afar off for the fear of
her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in
one hour is thy judgment come.... 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are
departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed
from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. 15 The merchants of these
things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her
torment, weeping and wailing, 16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was
clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious
stones, and pearls! 17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And
every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as
trade by sea, stood afar off, 18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her
burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! 19 And they cast dust on
their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city,
wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness!
for in one hour is she made desolate. 20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye
holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her. 21 And a mighty
angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying,
Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be
found no more at all. 22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers,
and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of
whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a
millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee; 23 And the light of a candle shall
shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride
shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of
the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. 24 And in her was found
the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.”
After that, there will be time of warfare between Jesus as the Commander of
the Heavenly armies and the beast.
Then comes the climax, the Revelation of the true bride of Christ, adorned in
all her splendour (Rev 21:2).

18.10 The Counter Reformation - Mariology / Maryolotry
At the council of Ephesus in 431, Nestorius, the patriarch of Constantinople,
refused to accord to Mary the title “Mother of God’. St. Cyril, the patriarch of
Alexandria, deposed Nestorius and approved the title “Mother of God” for Mary.
By the end of the 5 th century the adoration of Mary was already practiced in the
Church.
Pius lX’s encyclical – 1849, Ubi Primum, declared that Mary’s foot has
crushed the head of Satan. It was also Mary who always delivered the Christian
people from their greatest calamities and the snares and assaults of all their
enemies. In Catholicism one becomes a ‘child of Mary’ with the promise that ‘no
true child of Mary will ever perish’.
On November 1, 1950, Pope Pius Xll made an allegedly infallible ex cathedra
declaration in his Apostolic Constitution Munificentissimus Deus that “the
immaculate Mother of God and ever Virgin Mary was at the end of her life
assumed into heaven with body and soul”. The most authoritative book on
“Catholicism’s Virgin Mary” by Cardinal and Saint Alphonsus de Liguari [the Glories
of Mary] declares that she is a perpetual virgin.
According to modern popes, Mary is the ‘Queen of Heaven’, Queen of the
Universe, Seat of Wisdom, etc. There are many Marys: Our Lady of Medjugorge,
Our Lady of Guadlupe, Or Lady of Lourdes, the Black Virgin of Jasna Gora, Our
Lady of Fatima [she was the daughter of Mohammed].
According to Time magazine there have been so many sightings of the Virgin
Mary around the world, that the late 20th century has become the age of Marian
pilgrimage of the many shrines established to commemorate these appearances [in
France alone there are 937 Marian shrines).
Consecration of countries to Mary:
• Ukrainian people 1037
• Hungary 1037
• Europe 1309
• England 1381
• France 1638
• Poland 1656
• S. American Spanish Colonies 1643
• Portugal 1664
• Austria 1665
• U.S.A. 1846
John Paul ll has dedicated himself and his pontificate to “Our Lady’.

19 Redemptive gifts of cities
(Compiled from the teachings of Arthur Burke of Plumbline Ministries, USA)
19.1 Introduction
In the last years there has been the articulation of a new idée, that there should not
just be a focus on individuals but that we should focus also on communities, in
reaching whole cities.
For 2000 years we have missed that 50 – 75% of Scripture was written to groups,
nations and peoples rather than to individuals.
Time and again God judged entire nations even though there has been a righteous

emnant in a community (ex. Daniel, Jeremiah).
In the New Testament there are major portions that were written to the collective
Church in the City, not just to individuals.
Revelations is written to a world as a whole even though there were righteous
individuals; judgement was still brought on the world.
Act 17:26,27 - 26 “And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on
all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the
boundaries of their dwellings, 27 “so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that
they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.”
Five observations:
• From 1 man God made very nation – ethnos – every ethnic group, socio
economic group, political, identifiable civil unit. God crafted every city and
nation intentionally
• God’s intent is that the entire earth be populated. It is only by the presence of
people on the land that the redemptive gift can be released and empowered.
• God determined the times set for people groups. When the nations will be
born and when they will die.
• God determines the exact places where people groups should live.
• God designed these redemptive Gifts for a purpose. V.27 The objective of the
redemptive gifts is to create a hunger for God to reveal Gods nature and to
cause people through these gifts to turn to Him.
Rom 12:6-8 – Prophet / Servant / Teacher / Exhorter / Giver / Ruler / Mercy.
Every city; every nation has one of these seven redemptive gifts.
By looking at the behavior of a city – the obvious seemingly secular, social
components of the city and identify the gift of the city based on behavior. And from
that we can go to the 7s in scripture and find a great deal of the DNA.
Within the gifts there is immense latitude for the superficial variations of culture.
Even though there is great diversity – still the diversity stays in certain bounds. So
within the parameters there is room for the cultures to make a superficial and visible
difference on the surface – but the root issues are the same.
19.2 Root issues
If you identify the redemptive gift of a city, you immediately know what the central
demonic stronghold is. As we are dealing with territorial demonic forces – the
issue is not the demons. They are almost irrelevant.
• Demons are primarily the markers of where sin and wounding is.
• There is a central sin in every community that is the exact perversion of the
redemptive gift. So we must significantly down play the demonic presence and
focus on the human responsibility to deal with the sin issues.
Amos 1 and 2 makes use of reductionaism. God takes all of the sins of a nation
and reduces them to a handful of the root sins. Separating the root sins from the
fruit sins.
It is fascinating to look at the specific iniquities that God focuses on – to see that
which is conspicuous by its omission. Particularly the fact that in none of the
gentile nations does God identifies idolatry as a reason for their destruction. And yet
all of them were idolatrous nations and we know that idolatry is always wrong and
iniquity in God eyes. So you have nations that are pathologically idolatrous and God
is silent about them, because the idolatry was fruit not root.
• However you come to the nation of Judah and idolatry is one of the central
issues. By definition they were destroyed because they were worshipping the
Gods of other nations around them.

• For Moab the worship of Chemosh was fruit sin – and therefore not central to
establish the demonic stronghold.
• For the Israelites the worship of Chemosh was root not fruit and God weighed it
more heavily against that community.
Essentially in every community we have every sin, rebellion and iniquity practiced.
In some places there is more of one than the other but the intensity or prevalence of
the sin is not the issue. The issue is that in the eyes of God when a community
perverts their strength, when they take their strength and turn it into the
iniquity – take the redemptive gift and reverse it, that offends God to the
utmost and it is those root iniquities that specifically empower the stronghold
and invoke the destructive wrath of God.
We have a second tool that goes with the list of sevens and that is the prophetic
Words.
• One illustration: Sodom. Most believers would say God destroyed the city of
Sodom for the sin of homosexuality. This was a dominant component of
Sodom’s culture (and it did offend God) yet according to the prophets in Ezek
16:49, homosexuality was not one of the root sins; it was not the reason God
destroyed Sodom. It was fruit.
• So our spiritual mapping strategies become more precise. Dots on map that
confused can now be ignored and we go to the 3 or 4 root sins. Though they are
the most difficult to deal with we will get infinitely more return on our effort and
time if we deal with these issues.
The next question is: How do we deal with the demonic strongholds and the
iniquities?
For that we come to the 4 different authorities:
• Governmental authority
• Positional authority
• Special anointings
• Authority rooted in virtue – this is central for city reaching. Developing virtue
opposite to the vice. Coming in the opposite spirit.
Illustrated in Eph 4:28 – 28” Let him who stole, steal no longer, but rather let him
labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him
who has need.”
After finding the root sin; the intercessors the core group need to develop virtues
that is the opposite of the vice that needs to prayed about and dealt with.
19.3 Catalytic institutions
We need to look at the place where life flowed the first time in the community.
That institution will be a catylitic institution where life will flow from again, and this
should form the focus of our prayers in order to bring a life changing influence on
the whole community.
Five authority structures:
• Marriages
• Parenting
• Church
• Government
• Business

19.4 Gift 1 – Prophet
19.4.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (Dan / Edom / City of Damascus)
Present nations (Scotland / Uganda / Eritrea / USA)
Cities / communities (Atlanta / The Apache Indians / Boston)
19.4.2 Behavioral characteristics
A profound resistance to bondage or being told what to do. This is central
to the spiritual DNA of the prophet. The prophet is one of Gods primary tools
to bring freedom to the people because they so absolutely despise bondage.
Look for Bitterness. Example: Are the elections hotly contested and do the
memories of the election last for months or years after the elections. Another
example: Stalemate between groups because of things that happened in the
past between groups.
We look for schizophrenic package of extreme discrimination while at
the same time a profound desire to help the poor. Commitment to the
underdog while at the same time practicing discrimination. This is the bizarre
but highly predictable characteristic of the prophet community. These
communities many times champion and fight for the rights of those who are
trampled.
Look for excellence. If it is not a very wounded prophet community there will
be a drive to do things better.
There is normally a high investment in infrastructure. Buildings that are
built are more decorative and have more resources than is necessary for
functionality.
The prophet community is an ideological seedbed. Ideas are birthed and
flourish there.
Radicalism flourishes. It is alright to color outside the line, in fact they
rarely color inside the line.
It can be confused with the gift of teaching community because of the
proliferation of colleges and universities and yet a closer look indicates a
difference. The birthing of new ideas in the schools / churches / political
arena etc. is hallmark prophet.
We also see a profound capacity to communicate. Intensely rooted oral
communication or a technological communication is established.
They are very quick to take the initiative in conflict. The prophet
community is always intruding where they have not been asked.
We also find that where hope has been taken away – where the future has
been stripped from them there is a depth of despair that you don’t find in
any other community. The prophet does not know how to function on survival
mode. Where hope is removed and bondage is institutionalised the prophet
will tend to give up and the brokenness and grief, alcoholism, despair in the
community becomes extremely destructive.
Ideologically driven communities. Attempted to create a model.
High level’s of autonomy. Rebelling against those that want to lord over
them. Normally at the forefront of agitation against such powers.
You many times see the creativity and capacity to adapt.
Pride in military strength.

19.4.3 Stronghold
The stronghold that needs to be torn down in the prophet city is an
ideological one and is laid out in the book of Obadiah.
Obadiah is a one chapter prophecy against Edom where God describes why
He is going to destroy them. In this passage God identify the specific
iniquities that are at the root. This reductionism needs to be practiced to
find the sin that forms the foundation for demonic entrenchment / stronghold.
Obad 1:2,3,8 “Behold, I will make you small among the nations; You shall be
greatly despised. 3 The pride of your heart has deceived you, You who dwell
in the clefts of the rock, Whose habitation is high; You who say in your heart,
‘Who will bring me down to the ground?’ 8 “Will I not in that day,” says the
Lord, “Even destroy the wise men from Edom, And understanding from the
mountains of Esau?”
One of the core components of the prophet community is pride; pride in their
invincibility, heritage, knowledge and basically a lack of need for God.
The second issue for which God confronts Edom is a false sense of
security. V.4 – 4 Though you ascend as high as the eagle, And though you
set your nest among the stars, From there I will bring you down,” says the
Lord. V.9 – 9 Then your mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, To the
end that everyone from the mountains of Esau May be cut off by slaughter.
Wherever you have a prophet nation – you will find that pride in military
strength and it is a stench in the nostrils of God. There is no security to be
found in the army.
The third root and piece of defilement is by far the worst. This is in verse 10-
14. “For violence against your brother Jacob, Shame shall cover you, And
you shall be cut off forever. 11 In the day that you stood on the other side— In
the day that strangers carried captive his forces, When foreigners entered
his gates And cast lots for Jerusalem— Even you were as one of them. 12 But
you should not have gazed on the day of your brother In the day of his
captivity; Nor should you have rejoiced over the children of Judah In the day
of their destruction; Nor should you have spoken proudly In the day of
distress. 13 You should not have entered the gate of My people In the day of
their calamity. Indeed, you should not have gazed on their affliction In the
day of their calamity, Nor laid hands on their substance In the day of their
calamity. 14 You should not have stood at the crossroads to cut off those
among them who escaped; Nor should you have delivered up those among
them who remained In the day of distress”.
Understand that the judgment that came against Judah came from the hand
of God. However it was inappropriate in the eyes of God, it was a root sin, it
was a travesty for the Edomites to take advantage of the destruction of
Judah and to exploit Judah even more. The reason v. 10 – because of the
violence against your brother Jacob. They were brothers – Jacob and
Edom. God still put a priority on this because of the blood relationship.
When God brought Israel in the Promised Land God instructed the tribes to
leave Edom alone. They were relatives through Lot, the land was theirs. God
puts premium on family relationships. Because Edom violated that family
relationship God said I am going to exterminate the nation of Edom from the
earth.
This is the Edomite Heresy. There are three different curses under which all
evil can be summarised.
• The Edomite curse: The Edomite heresy perverts the meaning of God
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

the father.
• The Babylonian curse: It is in Babylon where man first deified the
political head of government – like Roman Empire. It negates and
contravenes the fact that Jesus Christ alone is fit to be both the political
and religious head of a nation.
• The Egyptian curse: The Egyptian heresy is the perversion of the work
of the Holy Spirit.
The Edomite heresy has everything to do with the defragmentation of the
family relationship. So the racism / abortion / divorce / child molestation /
abandonment of children / the abuse of the elderly / euthanasia – all of these
things come from that Edomite heresy that the prophet so quickly goes into.
They are so willing to embrace certain truths and quick to abandon the
family relationships and there by they mock the reality of God the
father from whom the nations were formed.
19.4.4 The virtues needed (earned authority)
The issue of relationship with God. The core group of intercessors in this
community will have to embrace relationship first and foremost. They will
gravitate naturally to strategy and wisdom and to doing war in the
heavenlies. But this will be meaningless until the intercessors in this
community are anchored solidly in relationship and know God the Father.
The second virtue that needs to be developed after relationship with God is
the dependence on God. The ability to walk by faith and not competence
and believing in human ability.
If an intercessor in any prophet city wants to be effective they are going to
invest in relationships at personal expense. Do you make a priority out of
building and rebuilding broken relationships? So look first at the family. Are
you distant from your family, alienated? Is you family broken. That is not the
issue. The issue is: what did you do about your broken family?
19.5 Gift 2 – Servant
19.5.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (Simeon)
Present nations (India / Sudan / Elsalvador / Suriname)
Cities / communities (Almolongo / The State of New Mexico / The Basques
people group (of Spain and France))
19.5.2 Behavioral characteristics
There is no fame for the community. In fact there is mostly overt dishonor
and that community is the object of endless jokes that are dishonoring and
not realistically true.
The reputation attached to servant cities consistently is far below the
reality of who they are and that is one of the indicators.
It is also a city that attracts a disproportionate number of predators and
victims of every sort. Predators are business men that are unashamedly
exploitive in their practices. Employees in a servant city are consistently
complaining that their bosses are not even obeying the minimal laws for
employers.
You will find in these cities, an extraordinary high amount of victimisation
in families. Child abuse / child molestation and wife beating will be higher in
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

90

those cities than any other.
These cities seem to attract those who have been wounded in other cities.
A significantly high proportion of woman that moved from outside into the
servant city were molested as children. The demonic stronghold over the city
centers around victimisation.
Typically the city is primarily involved in agriculture or the service
industry, including at times hospitality such as hotels.
Within the structure of the city (or nation) there is a major problem with
leadership. The city only functions well when there is strong leadership at
the helm and yet historically leadership has tended to be exploitive.
The final consistent characteristic of a servant city is that they are never
offensively disruptive.
19.5.3 The stronghold
The stronghold in any servant city will center around what we call the victim
spirit. The victim spirit is a term that describes a particular demonic pattern –
it is one that is aided and abetted by self deception.
In a whole city you see victimisation in a wholesale level and you see it
normalised. The city also attracts the predators that overtly come for control
and community. There might be a fear of leadership because so much
leadership was abusive. The demonic presence over the city agitates that
aspect. Even when there is not a problem and leaders walk in integrity still
this presence maintains that undue fear.
19.5.4 The virtues needed (earned authority)
The opposite spirit to these demonic aspects is dominion. Walking in
dominion and being a life giver. Fine line between dominion and
domination. Domination is exploitive and is what the predator spirit does.
Dominion is what somebody does with righteous authority in a stewardship
context to bring about Gods kingdom on earth.
Intercessors in the city – without having position, or being visible or
recognised has to start ministering to people in the city that are wounded – to
come against the victim spirit.
• They can complain that the spiritual eldership does not back them or
they can embrace the fact that they have been called by God and the
dominion mandate does apply to them and they can walk forward using
the resources they have, embracing the authority to be life givers.
There is a second facet and it is difficult to separate it from the victim spirit –
yet it has a life of its own – just a little bit separated from the victim spirit and
that is a pervading sense of lack of legitimacy.
• We see the same thing between the intercessors and the pastors. The
intercessors do not trust the pastors and therefore they cannot get
covering from spiritual leadership. Pastors are afraid to trust each other
– so they do not want to get together in a group to extend blessing to the
work in the city. Pastors in the city are afraid to trust any intercessors
that are covered by any individual pastor. Distrust all around and so it
strips the intercessors of the formal external legitimacy. And so they
stand alone under the credibility they find from God.
Acts 17:26 – God determines the times and place where every people group
should be established. If the city exists today – then God determined that it
should exist today and so the intercessors need to confront these aspects of

91

19.6 Gift 3 – Teacher
illegitimacy head on and regardless of what the state legislature said – God
determined that the city is legitimate. God determined that it has purpose
and they reject the lie of the spirit of illegitimacy that lies over the city and call
people forth to the dignity of who they are the city. But they cannot do that
until the individuals themselves embrace legitimacy.
And we need to separate out in our minds the authority that comes directly
from God and governmental authority that comes through the church. God
called every single believer to be a member of the royal priesthood under the
order of Melchesedek.
• The priesthood as first – it is foundational. Even if they had
governmental authority but did not walk in this priesthood they still would
not have dominion.
Two other passages where Paul talks about his apostleship.1 Cor 9:1.
The fruit is the seal of their legitimacy and God by this fruit has validated
their legitimacy and their work. 2 Cor 10:13
19.6.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (Levi / The Ancient Medes (today called the
Kurds))
Present nations (Nepal / Tibet / Uruguay / Barbados)
Cities / communities (Katmandu (Capital of Nepal) / Philadelphia / Jerusalem
/ Colorado Springs / Long Beach, California / Nashville, Tennessee /Cape
Town)
19.6.2 Behavioral characteristics
Look to see how many hospitals there are. Healing is a core component of
the redemptive gift of teachings DNA. There are normally a disproportionate
number of hospitals; typically you will also have teaching hospitals, research
hospitals, specialisation in the medical field and cutting edge medical
provisions.
These cities normally have fine cuisine. They have many restaurants, many
of them small, niche restaurants that deal with specialty foods. You eat well.
Looking back at the map another simple indicator is the amount of parks.
The gift of teaching city is going to have more parks / open space / green
areas on average than any other community.
We also see a focus on the past (e.g. Musuems, art centres etc. look at the
past). Historic place and street names. Old has legitimacy and gives them
value.
We also look for schools. A disproportionate number of schools, either
specialty private schools or colleges and universities will be clustered in a gift
of teaching community. The quality of education even in the lower grades will
be above average.
We look for transportation. It is highly unusual to find a gift of teaching city
that does not have multiple major arteries in and out. Many times it is rail, or
a port or major highways that crisscross and put them in connection with
other cities.
We are also going to find a strong religious spirit in any gift of teaching
community. There are going to be lots and lots of churches. More than the
population merits.
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

92

There will be an independent spirit too, that the churches will tend to be
divisive. The difference between the independent religious spirit of the giver
and that of the teacher city.
• Giver – the churches are independent, there are lots of them
(manifestation of the religious spirit) and they are independent in that
they want to maintain control, they do not want anybody else controlling
them.
• In your gift of teaching community – there is a religious spirit that breeds
many churches but they are independent because each one believes
that they have a corner on the truth. They believe they are theologically
much more correct than anybody else and they would not want to
pollute their pure theology with anybody else’s stream. That is an
underlying theme that you find more theologically militant churches in
the teaching community than any where else.
A surprising component of teaching communities is a passive presence of
war machinery.
The teacher’s community is many times a place of refuge, a safe place for
those who are overtly oppressed (looking for freedom).
The gift of teaching city develops prototypes. They do not necessarily
produce and market these things. They birth the new ideas.
There is inherent in the DNA of the teacher city a death spirit (as seen
through Freemasonry influences).
19.6.3 The strongholds and virtues needed (to have authority)
There are three highly predictable strongholds that we draw from the
prophetic words. If you would take all the prophecies that were spoken
against Jerusalem and distill them into the most frequently repeated issues
and root pattern you would find these things.
False worship. Worship is a core component of the spiritual DNA of the
teacher. And in its territorial application the gift of teaching attracts
worshippers. It attracts people who have a heart to know their God.
• In any gift of teaching community you are going to have the highest
level of satanic covens. They are not evident from mapping and
research. But anybody that works in deliverance will tell you that these
teaching cities provide many people because the covens are there.
• You are not just dealing with some eastern mysticism and new age in
these cities, but hardcore committed perverted demonic individuals that
are involved in satanic ritual abuse.
• Obviously the flip side of that is to worship from the heart as opposed to
worshipping from a religious spirit, going through the motions or doing
things that work somewhere else. Worship from the heart of somebody
that just enjoys being in the presence of God.
• God has called the gifts of teacher cities to experience the manifest
presence of God. It is more than just making time for God or
worshipping God from the heart. There is this whole issue of the art form
of worship. Once the motive of worship is right God welcomes in the
religious expression in their creativity, in their beauty and in their purity.
Worship that is responsive. It flows out of being in the presence of
God – in response to His presence a new genre of worship comes forth.
• The stronghold of false worship will only be dealt with if people city wide
starts moving in pure worship, in the manifest presence of God. Then

93

19.7 Gift 4 – Exhorter
the occultist will start to leave the city.
• Believers earning authority by bringing worship to its highest peak – so
that the worship of God can gain authority over false worship.
The second issue that supports the strongholds over teacher cities is
leaders who make soft choices. Their choices are for the immediate good
or control.
• Many teacher cities, in the political arena, has had leaders that cannot
take a strong stand, that there is anarchy on the streets. Then there has
been teachers cities with leaders that were too harsh and tried to crush
out those that oppose them and that has been wounding to the city as
well.
• No short term investment – but having a vision to invest long-term for
the benefit of the entire city. It may not give a return in a few years. They
have to pay the cost in the short term to rather choose that which will
have long term benefit and seek going forward with God rather than
going forward with man. This has earns great authority.
There is a third issue – that is the defilement of the land. The iniquity is
most deeply rooted in the land.
• For all the occultic power resident in the land, the issue is not the
demonic, but the people. Ezek 36:17 “Son of man, when the house of
Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own ways and
deeds;”
• God gives us some models. Deut 21:1-9 – cleansing the land. But we
must go beyond dealing with the defilement on one occasion and go
further into maintenance. Jer 31:23 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the
God of Israel: “They shall again use this speech in the land of Judah and
in its cities, when I bring back their captivity: ‘The Lord bless you, O
home of justice, and mountain of holiness!’ 24 “And there shall dwell in
Judah itself, and in all its cities together, farmers and those going out
with flocks. 25 “For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished
every sorrowful soul.” This passage is referring to the millennial
restoration of the city of Jerusalem and the temple. With all of that
holiness in place God still requires that the land and the buildings be
maintained by the verbal blessings of people = the art of blessing.
God calls the believer to regain the lost art of blessing. Unless land
issues are dealt with in teaching cities there will not be a full release of
the gift. The two are permanently intertwined.
19.7.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (Ephraim / The city of Corinth)
Present nations (Italy / France / Argentina / Ghana / Mexico / Sweden)
Cities / communities (Amsterdam / Paris / Los Angeles / Pennsylvania /
California)
19.7.2 Behavioral characteristics
It is a bit more difficult than most because the exhorter community has
characteristics from both the giver and the ruler. Both the giver and the ruler
have a huge amount of diversity, particularly diversity of cultures being
brought in.
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

94

Both the exhorter and the ruler have an empire, expansionist component
to their DNA.
We find that the exhorter because of its diversity and drawing from so many
different facets, seem to have something of everything that one of the other
gifts have except for the fact that they are not low profile (servant gift). The
exhorter gift does not even know how to be low profile even if they tried to
be.
Perhaps one that stands out more than others – is the normalisation and
standardisation of sin, particularly sensuality.
And so the entertainment, the focus on self within the cities may begin with
merely acceptable soul pleasure, but more often than not it descends into
overt sensuality.
Your exhorter city frequently has a major commercial component to it.
Especially retail. And they have the ability to receive conflicting groups of
people; make room for them and to keep them from amalgamating. The
presence of diversity without the tension or conflict and hostility.
In a modern city or nation we tend to see centralized city planning, very
restrictive building codes, and a high degree of control from the state
level.
19.7.3 The Stronghold
With any exhorter community self-centeredness forms the kingpin on
which all the aspects of the demonic are hanged on in such a community.
The cult of comfort is more deeply enshrined in an exhorter community than
any other community.
• The self-centeredness (and self-gratification), the commitment to
relationship above principle manifests in socially acceptable ways at
first.
The 1 st is sensuality that becomes sexuality and perversion. Sensuality
within the church. Believers – their primary goal is to be happy in church and
have church minister to them. There is a lack of vision; there is a lack of
commitment, a lack of willingness to pay a price for kingdom work. Rather
each individual comes to church asking what he can get out of it (whether
there is a good program for the children, whether the music is according to
his style, whether the preaching and the scheduling suits him). Out of that
flows the iniquity of self centered worship – defining worship as their own
good feelings.
2 nd component to the stronghold is a profound spirit of denial. An inability to
see reality as it really is. Being spin doctors when something bad happens.
The reproofs of the Lord are interpreted differently so that they are no longer
reproofs of the Lord. Anything to explain away the consequences of sin as
long as they do not have to repent. The pride is immense. The denial of
sin is pervasive.
• Leaders are paralysed because they are unable to embrace the reality
of sin because they do not want the people to leave.
• Coupled with this denial, Scripture shows that when an individual is in
denial regarding the discipline of the Lord, they are also unable to
approve of and receive Gods vision. Then there is no sense of
expectancy – the vision fall to the ground. There is complacency and a
self absorption. It is rooted in the issue of pride.
The third component to the stronghold is that there is no long-term plan.

There is no long term vision. They are opportunistic. When something
comes to town they take advantage of it.
Many leaders who are exhorters will demonstrate the propensity to take
opinion polls, testing the waters – to see where the open door and receptivity
is. There is a time and a place for that, but there is also a time and place to
determine what the will of the Lord is and walking it out, regardless of
whether it seems feasible.
19.7.4 The virtues needed (earned authority)
First understand the opposite of self-centeredness and comfort is to be
centered on others particularly on Gods agenda and to sacrifice your
comfort for the well being of others.
• We would look for men and woman who have high moral standards.
Who do not compromise themselves with the movies they watch and
the activities that they engage in. Men and woman who have
appropriate boundaries with members of the opposite sex.
• Also in this package is the willingness to lay down relationships. This
is probably the most difficult in exhorter cities, because relationships are
revered, frequently above God’s will.
• It is not wrong to lead with relationship. But it is wrong to let lack of
approval by someone with whom you have close relationship paralyse
you and keep you from doing what God has called you to do. That is
iniquity.
• Those that have honored God more than their own comfort and
relationship. Having paid a high price when they obeyed God without
others approval, instead there was overt disapproval from those around
them. They hold the key of authority because they paid the price.
The second thing that they need to develop and to have virtue – is to walk in
reality regarding sin in the camp. It is time to call sin, sin and let the chips
fall where they may. Fourth letter of churches of Revelations – they seem to
have vitality because of the programs etc. but all this is undermined by a lack
of holiness. “I have given her time to repent of her immorality, but she is
unwilling.” The church is in this denial. It is not an issue of needing more
time, but an issue of leadership that does not want to confront the sin
aspects.
• The Church needs to start focusing vertically away from the horizontal.
Raise their vision above comfort and start focusing on the mind of God,
the power of God, the ways of God. It is those that are more focused on
God, on the glory stories and things that God do (more than other
people and the horizontal relationships) that will have authority and
power in the city.
The third area is the long term vision. Those intercessors that have
received a plan from God after they have heard the heart and voice of
God. The plan may be difficult. But the ones that have authority are the ones
that ask – how do we get there rather than asking what is do-able. Their
needs to be intentionality in the city. Focusedness in prayer is important
for the intercessors. Not just prayer where we enjoy one another’s
presence, and then pray about everything and the other. Focused prayer
according to an objective alone will bring forth results and give rise to
authority.

19.8 Gift 5 – Giver
19.8.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (Israel)
Present nations (Japan / Philippines / Netherlands / South Africa / Brazil /
Kenia / South Korea)
Cities / communities (Florida / Alaska / New York State)
19.8.2 Behavioral characteristics
Look for three dominant things that mark the gift of giving. First of all a very
independent community. Independence from the outside communities, even
in the city each part of the city has an independent spirit. People often
criticise this independence when they try to bring people together, but this
independence is God ordained for good and not for evil. They are
independent in the sense that there is no welfare mentality. They solve their
own problems and they are not looking for outside help. This is wholesome
and healthy.
You also find a religious spirit – there is a proliferation of religious
activities. There is a tendency when you look a little bit closer – there is
more activity and less spiritual life in a gift of giving city than other cities.
The most dominant characteristic is immense diversity. In any giver city
there is diversity on every front. Diversity in politics, religion, economic
facets, in the history, in the races. Just massive diversity.
These three things come together to create a diversity of churches in the
city – each one standing alone. By looking at one particular statistic in the
Operation World book we can easily determine whether we are dealing with
a giver city. Is there great diversity in the expressions of faith? Specifically
the number of protestant denominations represented in each country. Where
you have a non gift of giving community there are going to be fewer than the
giver city or nation.
There is a diversity of food. Food is central to the culture, the enjoyment of
food establishments are high profile and plenteous. There also tends to be a
definite high profile entertainment industry.
A birthing anointing. New industries, ministries and organizations are
birthed there and go from there out to the rest of the land or world.
There tends to be a high focus on safety as in fire and police departments.
In most giver communities you will find that the caliber of police and fire
department or the amount of money invested into them is higher than the
national norm.
You will find businesses that are more opportunistic than being militantly
aggressive. Businessmen are able to see opportunities that no one else
sees. To take the pieces of the economy, and weave those together to
create a niche in the market place, a means that others have not seen. They
are masters at finding the opportunities that others overlook.
These cities tend to have extraordinary complex politics. There is such a
need for control on every level. Even with that control there is a desire to
be non-confrontational as much as possible. To work through finesse to
work through relationships.
The gift of giving provides vital resources to communities outside of them,
for them to do what they need to do. Resource is far more than money.

19.8.3 The strongholds and the virtues needed to come against it
The first stronghold that is predictable: an independent spirit in order to
control their own safety. The need to control and the drive to be in control
for safety is central to these cities. As you go through the prophetic words
spoken over Israel – God rebukes them for refusing to be dependant on Him.
He rebukes them for tending to turn to other nations for alliances, such as
Egypt; refusing to look to Him for safety and protection.
• We come against that in the opposite city – intercessors to be the initial
thrust, by laying down their safety and to live a life of vulnerability. To
expect and anticipate that God would provide their protection in every
realm. They are opportunities and choices to control safety yourself or to
be vulnerable in some tiny way (in a thousand little things in your walk).
We need to be vulnerable and thereby be willing to risk on His
intervention.
The second stronghold is the death spirit. The devouring of life and
especially of new birth. This is not seen on a statistical way. But through the
prophetic etc. it becomes clear that there is a whole host of occultic
organisations that are rooted grounded in the death spirit. There will be more
false religions where there is death as a component of worship in a giver city
than any other community.
• How can an individual earn authority over the death spirit? We are not
able to create life. The issue is not creating or initiating life, but learning
to be life givers in the normal course of our walk. Again it is a myriad
of simple things, very diverse. It is the smile to bank teller that has just
been chewed on by someone else, it is the word of encouragement,
remembering the prayer request, it is sharing the glory story, and it is a
hug a touch, choosing to sit next to the newcomer in church. Many
small things that will build and individuals authority and cause them to
walk as life givers. This is vital for overcoming the death spirit. It must be
a lifestyle.
There is another core component to the stronghold – that is pacifism vs.
obedience in warfare.
• So the majority of the churches in the city will be involved with many
programs and this is right; evangelism as the sign of the birthing
anointing will be prevalent. But for the city to be taken we need the
small group that would be willing to embrace the concept of warfare,
who will lay down their right to have a peaceful existence, to walk in a
ordinary fashion and will embrace warfare as necessary, as vital for the
saving of the souls in the city.
19.9 Gift 6 – Ruler
19.9.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (The tribe of Judah)
Present nations (Egypt / China / Russia / England / Ethiopia)
Cities / communities (Santa Anna / Washington D.C. / Pretoria)
19.9.2 Behavioral characteristics
Aside from the empire building component. We look first for endurance and
resurgence. Although the ruler does not have a monopoly on this, we see
the vast dynasties that came out of countries such as Egypt, China, and
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

98

Ethiopia over the centuries.
There is a less elegant component of the behavior and that is exploitation.
The masses are generally exploited for the sake of the ruling class.
Regardless of the political structure. Whether we are dealing with
communism in China and Russia or the ancient Egyptian deity king there is
still the tendency towards vast exploitation of the people.
You also see an obsession with expansionism as we say the empire
building gene is there. None of these nations are ever content with the
borders that they have. They are always willing to do battle in order to extend
their borders.
You typically will find governmental presence in the city. With Washington
DC it is for the nation or then for county’s / provinces etc. Not every gift of
ruling city has a government seat, and not every city with a governmental
seat is a ruler, but there is normally a very high correlation.
If we look at their effectiveness in the political scene we see that the gift of
ruling tends to be very politically adept. They are able to out maneuver
others politically. They are skilled at accomplishing on the political arena
what they need to get done.
There is a very healthy independent spirit within such nations, there is no
welfare spirit, not looking for validation or verification from others. They
particularly do not need world opinion.
19.9.3 The strongholds and the virtues needed to come against it
There is a predator spirit. It not only does empire building, but it destroys
for the sake of destruction.
We need to understand how to come against it. People will need to come in
the opposite spirit. The virtue is for leadership, to protect, to provide and to
nurture.
Different basis of authority.
• To degree that a leader walks according to Gods moral law. In that
degree he is under limitations and will not be exploitive.
• The whole issues of Korahs rebellion was an issue of anointing verses
sovereign appointment. But the fact that somebody is anointed does not
mean God as position them for governmental authority. So Korah
rebelled against God instituted government and God killed them.
• The third one is the most important – the jar of Manna which was a
symbol of feeding Israel. If Moses had led them into the wilderness and
had not been able to provide for them, his leadership would have been
completely invalidated. The provision was part of Moses’ authority.
He who meets the need had the right to make the laws. Mankind
understands that leadership that only takes and does not give is illegitimate
leadership.
So the Church made a colossal mistake by giving welfare responsibility over
to federal government. God intended the Church to meet those needs in the
community so the church will have the moral authority in the community to
lead.
In a predatory community it is the individual that meets needs, that
protect provide and nurture, without controlling and exploiting, it is that
individual or intercessors that will have moral authority in the heavenlies first
and then speaking to earthly authority.
The second component of the stronghold is the spirit of control. It attempts
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

99

19.10 Gift 7 – Mercy
that only leadership think and direct. A command and control type of
organisation that permeated Washington DC. It is right and proper to have
organisation. But God’s best plan is not for control from the top but for
empowerment. For people on grass root levels to know what to do and how
to do it.
Those in the city who teach by principles will have the highest degree of
authority. It is not wrong to have organisations, but those who lead by
empowerment, and teach by principle – releasing the troops. They will have
the greatest authority. It is the guerilla force not the standing army that will
win in this generation. These are the people, the ones that do not need
control, or seek to dominate other people, those that are not dependant
on the organisational masses – they will have significant authority over
the demonic force of control over the city.
There is a third component to the stronghold and that is the dependence on
human resources instead of supernatural power.
So God is looking for intercessors in the city that have learned to pray
for the small things, experiencing God intervention everyday, having no
confidence in their own strength, money, power or position in the city. Having
a spirit of dependency – the ones who cry out to God for everything they
need whether it is a parking space, or favor with the right people. The ones
who daily experience God’s provision in their life. Being needy before God.
They have the high authority to tare down the confidence in the arm of flesh
that besets the city.
Thus these three principles: of protecting, nurturing, to come against the
predator spirit. The principle of empowering to come against the spirit of
control, and the principle of dependence on God to come against the
confidence on the arm of flesh.
Sam 21:1-14 A problem David inherits from Saul’s reign. Drought was not
ordinary. V.14 - And after that God heeded the prayer for the land.
David asked the Gibeonites – what shall I do so that you will bless the Lords
inheritance.
The principle here – it is the victim that has the highest authority to pray
either blessings or curses upon the one in authority over them.
19.10.1 Introduction
Biblical nations with this gift (tribe of Benjamin / City of Sodom)
Present nations (Canada / Hawaii / Norway / Tanzania)
Cities / communities (San Francisco)
19.10.2 Behavioral characteristics
It is one of the easiest cities to identify. First it is a city of refuge,
especially for those that have been rejected.
The core value of nations and cities of refuge is tolerance. The ability
to tolerate diversity, different views etc. They are willing to tolerate
everything except intolerance.
Another indicator is the relatively high level of immorality and
sexual perversion.
There is also a diversity of worship. It is not that there is vast
number of religious organisations (like giver communities) but there is
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

100

a much broader cross section of worship other than Judeo
Christian worship. You are going to find every cult and -ism
represented there. A great deal of Eastern mysticism, a broad
collection of ways in which men seeks to contact God.
You will find a drive toward creativity and a drive to self
expression. Whether it is in the stores, boutiques, restaurants,
architecture etc.
In a gift of mercy city there is a tendency to not reject, but tolerated
any group. They allowed the rejected to come and express their
views. They tolerate and accept those who are roundly rejected and
repudiated elsewhere.
Even the Church is tolerated as long as you do not preach
intolerance.
19.10.3 The Strongholds
The core stronghold and fundamental root sin in mercy communities
is the issue of pride. Ezek 16:49 – the reasons that God gives for
destroying Sodom - arrogance.
• 7 th letter in Revelations – You are neither hot nor cold. V.17 – You
say I am rich and do not need a thing yet you a pitiful, poor, blind
and naked.
• We see this with the tribe of Benjamin. Jud 20:12-14 –
homosexuality in a town in Benjamin. Israel asks of Benjamin to
give over the wicked men. The entire city does not participate in
the different iniquities within the city. But the entire city is guilty
before God of a level of pride that refuses to acknowledge that
there is wrong in the city, that refused to accept what is God
measure of right and wrong and this is so tragic, because they are
so close to the truth and yet lacking a piece.
• God intended the mercy city to not just be a place of refuge,
but a place of restoration. Because the mercy gift does not
understand how to restore, therefore all they were able to do, is to
change the standard and to say homosexuality is not wrong, and
therefore the people are not wrong. God calls the city to a higher
standard, to be life giving; to know how to restore lives that are
broken.
Let’s use two terms carefully here. God has called the city to
dominion, and the city has violently rejected domination. There is a
world of difference. Domination is the destructive control of others –
dominion is extending life in a wholesome way.
As Adam was to extend the dominion of God so the mercy city is still
called to this aspect, allowing thereby the life of God to flow. The
mercy is to draw on all the other gifts. Every life giving thing
from the other gifts is to be a resource that the mercy draws from
to mingle with their capacity to embrace the wounded, those who
have fallen into sin and to use it to repair, restore and rebuild people
to become whole again and walk in dominion.
• The fall in the garden hinged on the passivity of the gift of
mercy. Scripture is precise – Eve was deceived, Adam willfully
chose the wrong. He was responsible for sin coming into the world.
Sin was primarily passivity. He was expected by God to do
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

101

something about the situation. If Adam went to God, God would
have enabled Adam to do that what is necessary to restore his
wife. But he opted to join her, cherishing the relationship with Eve
more than the dominion God had called him to exercise.
So in the city, for lack of understanding on how to be a city of refuge
that is a safe place and yet a city of restoration at the same time. The
city walks in passivity, allow iniquity to abound because they do not
have the answers.
The second component to the stronghold in the city is selfgratification.
The principle for the gift of mercy is the principle of
fulfillment. God has designed the mercy to experience a wider range
of fulfillment than any other gift (body, soul and spirit). Therefore it is
no surprise that sex in its fullest display, its full range of behavior and
misbehavior is a key part of its culture.
There is a wide spectrum of soul issues – the business community,
the arts, the buildings everything is an expression of the multi facetted
soul of the city. There is also the spiritual fulfillment. Unfortunately, too
often that is through occultic sources rather than through God.
19.10.4 The virtues needed (earned authority)
So the Churches and believers that want to earn authority to have a
voice in the city, wanting to push back the stronghold, the demonic
spirit of toleration need to learn how to find fulfillment in the body,
soul and spirit in accordance with God design.
Even married people that seem to have appropriate aspects on paper
can have lust driven marriage and they will not have authority to deal
with these spiritual issues in the city. Until you know how to walk in
your marriage in moral freedom.
God desires this city to have the finest set of tools of any city in
knowing how to bring people to moral freedom so that they can
thoroughly enjoy the sexuality that god has given them. The gift
of mercy is designed to be sexual and to find fulfillment in sexuality –
but that which comes from God not that which violates natural law.
The same is true of the soul. It is a city with the widest expression of
joy. A fulfillment in the art of living. Make what they do as art form,
celebrating with the soul.
Rom 1 – talks about Gods ideal for nature. Even nature is a
celebration. God’s nature is expressed in creation. Celebrating nature
and recognising God. That is a high form of fulfilment for the gift of
mercy.
Adam (mercy) in the Garden of Eden. There was very limited worship
as we know. All there was were Adam and Eve enjoying the
presence of God. Talking about the garden; celebrating the garden
that God has made. To celebrate with the soul the things that God has
done. This is high worship.
People that go into wrong fulfilment, perverting things, can only be
redeemed by those, in the body of Christ, who have learned the art of
celebrating the natural life. Enjoying the right satisfaction, celebrating
God will give rise to authority for believers in this community.
That brings us to the spirit. Obviously there is a measure of fulfilment
that comes from overt occultic worship. There are so many forms of

102

different worship. Each one striving to find fulfilment in the spirit. God
reserves for the Body of Christ the greatest fulfilment. For them to
move into the presence of God and celebrate. Then believers will
move into the highest form of authority. If you are to busy for this you
will not attain the authority.

20 Daily Spirit Blessings
20.1 Background
God is the fountain of every blessing and of the abundant life that blessing brings.
The Bible was written in and to a culture that was steeped in blessing the blessing
of shalom, blessing the child with his name, the patriarchal blessing to the sons.
The blessing of God for his people, the blessing of Jesus, of the disciples, of the
early church and of Peter, Paul, and James in the New Testament, and the new
kingdom of priests that we are since the cross. But our culture doesn’t understand
blessing as it was practiced in the Bible.
The most profound blessing we need and can receive is the Father-heart of
God, his special creation of us, his kind intention toward us, his matchless
love for us, his glory revealed in us.
Some of Father God’s best healing work today is establishing our true identity in
him with his rich blessings. He reveals to those who we really are and affirms and
restores us in the image of Christ in us the hope of glory. These short blessings
from our Father bring forth our birthright of being all he wants us to be so that from
that place of wholeness we can do all that he designed us to do.
The blessings of the Father are designed to tune our spirit to our Father’s heart.
This is a treasure of identity and legitimacy from which to live confidently and
purposefully.
The blessings focused on the names of God will settle our spirit into the eternal
realities of the magnificence, authority, and dominion of God in whom we live, and
move, and have our being. Our spirit was made from the beauty of the Spirit of
God. Our spirit finds its true home in the Spirit of God.
20.1.1 Why Bless Our Spirits
God is spirit and we are made in his image. He created our spiritual DNA.
God already had our spiritual inheritance planned before he ever spoke “Let
there be light.” Our human spirit was made of the essence of the living God.
He breathed his spirit into man, and man became a living being. “The spirit in
a man, the breath of the Almighty, gives him understanding” (Job 32:8). We
encounter God in our spirits. We are designed for communion with our
Father spirit to Spirit. There are over 1 30 verses in the Bible that speak
specifically of the human spirit.
Two names of God in Scripture refer to the human spirit - God of the
spirits of all mankind (Numbers 16:22) and Father of our spirits (Hebrews
12:9). Our spirits need relationship and encouragement to come alive and
fully respond to him.
Paul signed four of his letters with a blessing for the spirit of his
readers (Galatians 6: 18, Philippians 4:23, Philemon 25, 2 Timothy 4:22).
Blessing your spirit is life-changing truth and revelation straight from
Scripture. This is a journey of joy, and peace, and hope, and strength, and
fulfillment, discovering the wonder of who you are; a unique spirit.
Paul commended saints for refreshing the spirit of others.
• How have we missed it? Paul said such people deserve honor. “I was
glad when Stephanus, Fortunatus and Achaicus arrived... For they
refreshed my spirit and yours also. Such men deserve recognition” (I
Cor. 16:1 7-18). “In addition to our own encouragement, we were

104

especially delighted to see how happy Titus was, because his spirit has
been refreshed by all of you” (2 Cor. 7: 13).
God made us to be complete spirit, soul, and body.
• 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 says, “May God himself the God of peace,
sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept
blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls
you is faithful and he will do it.”
• Our Creator wonderfully designed our spirits to him complex and to do
for us what our souls and bodies can’t. He wants to invest in the nurture
of our spirits as we have never experienced it before.
We are made to distinguish what is spirit and what is soul.
• Hebrews 4:12 says “For the word of God is living and active. Sharper
than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and
spirit Our Father appreciates the unique design of our spirits and souls
and knows their strengths and potential.
The Bible contrasts spirit with the body and with the sinful nature.
(Matthew 26:41, Galatians 5:16-I7). Receive these blessings in your spirit,
not your mind. Blessing others with these blessings is a most effective way
to leave a generational legacy, a trust fund of blessings for your generations.
Jesus was prepared, empowered, anointed, and appointed by God to bring
good news to our spirits, to release captivity of spirit and soul, to lift those
who are down trodden, bruised, crushed, and broken in spirit, and to call us
all forth to become the true sons we are created to he. Some of the blessings
will bring tremendous self-recognition. Some will strike a spark that you have
never recognized before but that you immediately say ”Amen” to as your
spirit awakens to new levels of life, authority, and joy in Christ. Many lives
have been healed, changed, and enlarged by’ the Spirit of God through
these blessings and they will profoundly impact you and those you love.
20.1.2 How to Bless Yourself and Others
Be intentional. Start with yourself so that you can bless others from a full
cup. Pray one blessing a day several times during the day. Begin each time
of blessing by saying something like, “Spirit, come to the front to receive
God’s best.” The soul will be listening, but these blessings are intended to
build up your spirit to more easily connect with God’s Spirit and receive
identity and legitimacy and direction from him. As you pray these one-a-day
for others, you might begin with “Beloved one (or use their name), I call
your spirit to the front to hear God’s blessing for you today.”
You have been blessed to be a blessing. Refresh and build up the spirits of
others.
20.2 14 Days of Blessings from Your Father’s Heart
Day 1 — I bless you with identity and legitimacy.
Spirit, your Father made you special. You are a very special person, created and
crafted and designed by God your Father. He planned for you. You are no accident.
Your Father made you beautiful and beloved. God invested an incredible amount of
effort and concentration in designing you. You are unique, one of a kind. God has
thought extensively about you. He smiled on the day he created you. He designed
your spiritual heritage. There is a spiritual treasure chest of generational blessings
with your name on it. I bless you in the name of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and

Jacob.

experience of the ages.

Spirit, I bless you with knowing the truth of the nature of Yahweh, the immensity of
his love for you. I bless you with experiencing the all- sufficiency of God, not just

you, as he makes a way for you, as he brings resources and gifts into your life in
many different ways. I bless you with having the eyes of your spirit open to
recognize the gifts that Yahweh gives to you through different means and different
people at different times.
Day 10 — I bless you in the name of El Shaddai, all-sufficient God.
Spirit, the skills God has given you from his own character are more than enough
for you to bring life to many individuals, and your battle in life will be the temptation
to stay with those things you do exceptionally well, where you are celebrated, loved,
and affirmed. You will not be celebrated for the larger task that God has called you
into. I bless you with finishing your life with the power of El Shaddai flowing to you
and through you. I bless you with experiencing the victory of El Shaddai enabling
you to heal what the world has said cannot be healed.

that handcrafted experience that only God can design. You must be so confident,

enemies in such a way as to make a public spectacle of the enemy.

heavenly Father’s heart, not just his strength. I bless you with seeing your Father in
many ways. I bless you with seeing Abba Father and having intimacy, safety, joy,
and security with him in the church, out of it, at work, in your home, in times of pain
and times of joy.
Day 13 — I bless you in the name of the Ancient of Days.
Spirit, you serve the Ancient of Days who will sit on the throne, and he will decree
justice. His justice is not just to defeat the enemy but to give the enemy’s treasures
to the saints to rule over. Spirit, look at the Ancient of Days who transcends those
short seasons when he allows the enemy to act as if he is in control. You are the
apple of the eye of the Ancient of Days. He cares for you, life is grooming you for
triumph, not just survival. I bless you with lifting your eves high against every work
of the enemy that has come in and will come into your life.
Day 14 — I bless you in the name of the God of your spirit.
The Lord who stretched out the heavens and laid the foundation of the earth forms
the spirit of man. Spirit, he stirs you up and moves you. I bless you with uniting

soul, the thoughts of your spirit from the attitudes of your soul. I bless you with

21.9 Some French Worship songs
Nous voulons voir Jésus élevé,
Comme un étendard sur ce pays,
Pour montrer a tous la vérité
Et le chemin vers le ciel.
Nous voulons voir, nous voulons voir,
Nous voulons voir Jésus élevé. (2x)
Pas à pas allons de l’avant,
Peu à peu gagnons du terrain,
La prière est notre puissance,
Les murailles s’écroulent a terre,
A terre, a terre, a terre.
Car Dieu est un Dieu puissant.
Il règne de son saint lieu
avec sagesse, amour;
Oui Dieu et un Dieu puissant.
Il est Seigneur, il règne dans les cieux,
Il est Seigneur.
Dieu parla dans la nuit et la lumière jaillit.
Il est Seigneur.
Qui d'autre que lui vit éternellement,
Il est Seigneur.
Quand nous invoquons son nom,
Il vient avec puissance, Il est Seigneur.
Envoie ta puissance, Seigneur notre Dieu[x2]
Car ton évangile est l'espérance des nations,
Tu es Seigneur.
We want to see Jesus lifted high,
A banner that flies across this land,
That all men might see the truth and know
He is the way to heaven.
We want to see, we want to see,
We want to see Jesus lifted high. (x2)
Step by step we’re moving forward,
Little by little we’re gaining ground,
Every prayer a powerful weapon,
Strongholds come tumbling down
And down and down and down.
Our God is an awesome God,
He reigns from heaven above,
With wisdom, power and love,
Our God is an awesome God.
He is the Lord, & He reigns on high;
He is the Lord.
Spoke into the darkness, created the light,
He is the Lord.
Who is like unto Him, never ending in days;
He is the Lord.
And He comes in power
When we call on His name. He is the Lord.
Show Your power, O Lord, our God. [x2]
Your Gospel, O Lord,
Is the hope for our nation. You are the Lord.

Seigneur, je célèbre ta bonté
Quelle joie, tu vis en moi !
Quelle joie, tu viens pour nous sauver.
Tu viens du ciel sur la terre montrer la voie,
De la terre à la croix payer pour moi,
De la croix jusqu’au tombeau,
Et du tombeau jusqu’au ciel
Je loue ton nom, Eternel.
Jésus, Jésus, toi le Saint et le Messie, Jésus.
Jésus, Jésus, élevé, glorifié, Jésus.
Ton nom est du miel à mon palais.
Ton Esprit désaltère mon âme.
Ta parole éclaire mon sentier.
Jésus, je t'aime, je t'aime.
Le chant termine,
Le rideau retombe, je viens simplement
Porter mon offrande car j’ai le désir
De réjouir ton cœur.
J’apporte plus qu’un beau chant,
Chanter ne suffit pas pour répondre à ton
appel.
Les apparences sont trompeuses,
Tu vois bien au-delà,
O Dieu, tu sondes mon cœur !
Je reviens au cœur de la louange,
Tout est centré sur toi, centré sur toi, Jésus.
Oui, je renonce à tous mes faux-semblants,
Pour tout centrer sur toi, centrer sur toi, Jésus.

You came from heaven to earth
To show the way,
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay;
From the cross to the grave, from the grave to
the sky, Lord I lift Your name on high.
Jesus, Jesus, holy & anointed one, Jesus.
Jesus, Jesus, risen & exalted One, Jesus.
Your name is like honey on my lips,
Your Spirit like water to my soul.
Your Word is a lamp unto my feet.
Jesus I love You, I love You.
When the music Fades
All is stripped away, & I simply come.
Longing just to bring something that’s of
worth,
That will bless Your heart.
I’ll bring You more than a song,
For a song in itself is not what You have
required.
You search much deeper within,
Through the way things appear;
You’re looking into my heart.
I’m coming back to the heart of worship,
And it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus.
I’m sorry, Lord, for the thing I’ve made it,
When it’s all about You, all about You, Jesus.
King of endless worth,
Though I’m weak and poor, all I have is yours

qui peut exprimer ,Ce dont tu es digne?
Bien que faible et pouvre, je te donne tout
Prends toute ma vie !
Les cieux proclament a gloire du
Ressuscité,
Rien n’est égal a la beauté du Seigneur.
A jamais il sera l’Agneau sur le trône.
Je fléchis le genou pour l’adorer lui seul.
Je veux chanter la gloire du Ressuscité,
L’Agneau immolé nous a rachetés pour Dieu.
A jamais tu seras l’Agneau sur le trône.
Je fléchis le genou pour t’adorer toi seul
Viens, ne tarde plus, adore.
Viens, ne tarde plus, donne ton cœur.
Viens, tel que tu es, adore.
Viens, tel que tu es devant ton Dieu,

no one could express how much you deserve!
Every single breath
All heaven declares the glory of the risen
Lord,
Who can compare with the beauty of the
Lord?
Forever He will be the Lamb upon the throne.
I gladly bow the knee, and worship Him
alone.
I will proclaim the glory of the risen Lord,
Who once was slain to reconcile man to God.
Forever You will be the Lamb upon the
throne.
I gladly bow the knee, and worship Him
alone.
Come, now is the time to worship,
Come, now is the time to give your heart,
Come, just as you are to worship,
Come, just as you are before Your God,
Come.
One day every tongue will confess
You are God,
One day every knee will bow,
Still, the greatest treasure remains for those
Who gladly choose You now.
22.1 1st Step: is to study the history and demographics
Begin by looking at the founding:
The person who founded it;
• Why he founded it? Its vision and its purpose? What were his motives? Why
was it founded here instead of 10 km in another direction?
By looking at the founder, frequently a lot of information is found about the
redemptive gift of the founder and the city will often have the same redemptive gift
as the founder. That is not a hard and fast rule, but certainly the majority of cases.
22.2 2 nd Step: Identify the gift of the city
Look at the geography first of all to see if there is a clear demarcation of 2 parts.
• Every teacher city is clearly divided into 2 parts. The simplest division is with a
river running through the middle. The fact that a city is divided in 2 definably
parts whether geographically or culturally does not necessarily mean it is a gift
of teaching city, but it is one of the quickest and easiest things to see in terms of
the nature of a city.

Get out the phone book and look up churches.
• A city with a high percentage of churches is probably a teacher or giver city.
• Both lean towards a strong religious spirit. The teacher city will have more of the
older streams of denominations.
• A giver is much more apt to have the more modern stream as well as many
independent churches.
Look at the medical industry. Is there a medical presence that is disproportionate
to the population? This is typically a sign of the teacher city especially if it has
teaching hospitals.
Look at education. If there is a very high presence of education that would
suggest a giver, prophet or teacher.
• If the education permeates just about every institution (every church has a preschool,
school of hairdresser’s etc. myriad of small schools) it is probably a
teacher city.
• If the schooling is primarily universities, higher education especially vested in
technology that could suggest a prophet community.
A third thing we look at is businesses. Businesses can be a significant indicator of
the gift. Not just the number of businesses but the type of businesses. Here you
have to be careful at reasoning to the root causes.
• One paradox – the servant city that will either attract very big business or very
small business. The reason is the servant is so subject to being exploited by the
predator and their laws make it beneficial for these large corporations to be
headquartered in these states – making exploitation easier.
• The flip side – you can go to a city that have no significant business (little
service industries, mom and pop businesses with 2-10 employees), it could also
be a servant city with the inability to attract life giving businesses to it.
22.2.1 The Prophet City - Characteristics
A profound resistance to bondage or being told what to do.
Look for Bitterness. Examples: Elections hotly contested and or stalemate
between groups because of things that happened in the past.
We look for schizophrenic package of extreme discrimination while at
the same time a profound desire to help the poor.
Look for excellence.
There is normally a high investment in infrastructure.
The prophet community is an ideological seedbed. Ideas are birthed and
flourish there.
Radicalism flourishes.
It can be confused with the gift of teaching community because of the
proliferation of colleges and universities and yet a closer look indicates a
difference. The birthing of new ideas in the educational institutions.
We also see a profound capacity to communicate.
They are very quick to take the initiative in conflict even intruding where
they have not been asked.
When hope has been taken away – where the future has been stripped from
them there is a depth of despair that you don’t find in any other community.
Ideologically driven communities.
High levels of autonomy. Rebelling against those that want to lord over them.
You many times see the creativity and capacity to adapt.
Pride in military strength.

22.2.2 The Servant City – Characteristics
There is no fame for the community. In fact there is mostly overt dishonor
and that community is the object of endless jokes that are dishonoring and
not realistically true.
The reputation attached to servant cities consistently is far below the
reality of who they are and that is one of the indicators.
It is also a city that attracts a disproportionate number of predators and
victims of every sort. Predators are business men that are unashamedly
exploitive in their practices. Employees in a servant city are consistently
complaining that their bosses are not even obeying the minimal laws for
employers.
You will find in these cities, an extraordinary high amount of victimisation
in families. Child abuse / child molestation and wife beating will be higher in
those cities than any other.
These cities seem to attract those who have been wounded in other cities.
A significantly high proportion of woman that moved from outside into the
servant city were molested as children. The demonic stronghold over the city
centers around victimisation.
Typically the city is primarily involved in agriculture or the service
industry, including at times hospitality such as hotels.
Within the structure of the city (or nation) there is a major problem with
leadership. The city only functions well when there is strong leadership at
the helm and yet historically leadership has tended to be exploitive.
The final consistent characteristic of a servant city is that they are never
offensively disruptive.
22.2.3 The Teacher City – Characteristics
Look to see how many hospitals there are. Healing is a core component
of the teachings gift’s DNA. There are normally a disproportionate number of
hospitals; will typically have teaching hospitals, research hospitals,
specialization and cutting edge medical provisions.
These cities normally have fine cuisine.
Looking at the map another simple indicator is the amount of parks. The gift
of teaching city is going to have more parks / open spaces on average than
other communities.
See a focus on the past.
Look for schools. A disproportionate number of schools, either specialty
private schools or colleges and universities will be clustered. The quality of
education will be above average.
Look for transportation. It is highly unusual to find a gift of teaching city that
does not have multiple major arteries in and out.
We are also going to find a strong religious spirit. There are going to be
lots of churches.
There will be an independent spirit too, the churches will tend to be
divisive.
A surprising component of teaching communities is a passive presence of
war machinery.
The teacher’s community is many times a place of refuge, a safe place.
The gift of teaching city develops prototypes. They do not necessarily
produce and market these things. They birth the new ideas.
There is inherent in the DNA of the teacher city a death spirit.

22.2.4 The Exhorter City – Characteristics
Exhorter community has characteristics from both the giver and the ruler.
Both the giver and the ruler have a huge amount of diversity, particularly of
cultures being brought in.
Both the exhorter and the ruler have an empire, expansionist component
to their DNA.
The exhorter because of its diversity and drawing from so many different
facets, seem to have something of everything that one of the other gifts have
except for the fact that they are not low profile (servant gift).
The normalization and standardization of sin, particularly sensuality.
So the entertainment, the focus on self within the cities will be evident.
Your exhorter city frequently has a major commercial component to it.
Especially retail.
They have the ability to receive conflicting groups of people; make room
for them and to keep them from amalgamating.
In a modern city we tend to see centralized city planning, very restrictive
building codes, and a high degree of control from the state level.
22.2.5 The Giver City – Characteristics
First of all a very independent community. Independence from the outside.
They solve their own problems and they are not looking for outside help.
You also find a religious spirit – there is a proliferation of religious
activities. There is a tendency of more activity and less spiritual life.
The most dominant characteristic is immense diversity on every front.
Diversity in politics, religion, economic facets, in the history, in the races.
A diversity of churches in the city – each one standing alone. Is there
great diversity in the expressions of faith? Specifically the number of
protestant denominations represented.
There is a diversity of food. There also tends to be a definite high profile
entertainment industry.
A birthing anointing. New industries, ministries and organizations are
birthed there and go from there out to the rest of the land or world.
There tends to be a high focus on safety as in fire and police departments.
You will find businesses that are more opportunistic than being militantly
aggressive.
These cities tend to have extraordinary complex politics. There is such a
need for control on every level.
Even with that control there is a desire to be non-confrontational as much
as possible. To work through finesse to work through relationships.
The gift of giving provides vital resources to communities outside of them,
for them to do what they need to do.
22.2.6 The Ruler City – Characteristics
Aside from the empire building component. We look first for endurance
and resurgence.
There is exploitation. The masses are generally exploited for the sake of
the ruling class.
You also see an obsession with expansionism as we say the empire
building gene.
You typically will find governmental presence in the city. Not every gift of
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009
Compiled by UPF (South Africa) - Cell: +27 83 559 5486 / Email: upfsa@absamail.co.za
120

uling city has a government seat, and not every city with a governmental
seat is a ruler, but there is normally a very high correlation.
If we look at their effectiveness in the political scene we see that the gift of
ruling tends to be very politically adept. They are able to out maneuver
others politically.
There is a very healthy independent spirit, no welfare spirit, not looking for
validation or verification from others.
22.2.7 The Mercy City – Characteristics
First it is a city of refuge, especially for those that have been rejected.
The core value is tolerance. The ability to tolerate diversity, different views
etc. They are willing to tolerate everything except intolerance.
Relatively high level of immorality and sexual perversion.
There is also a diversity of worship. Not the vast number of religious
organizations (like giver communities) but there is a much broader cross
section of worship other than Judeo Christian worship. You are going to
find every cult and -ism represented there.
You will find a drive toward creativity and a drive to self expression.
Whether it is in the stores, boutiques, restaurants, architecture etc.
There is a tendency to not reject, but tolerated any group, allowing the
rejected to come and express their views. They tolerate and accept those
who are roundly rejected and repudiated elsewhere.
Even the Church is tolerated as long as you do not preach intolerance.
22.3 Step 3: Identify the principle of the gift
Prophet – The principles of Design
Servant – The principles of Authority
Teacher – The principles of Responsibility
Exhorter – The principles of Sowing and Reaping
Giver – The principles of Stewardship
Ruler – The principles of Freedom
Mercy – The principles of Fulfillment
22.4 Step 4: Identifying the stronghold over the city.
Understand that every city has all the different sins most of the time – murder,
pornography, greed, molestation etc. Yet there is a principle demonic stronghold
that we need to identify, isolate and identify because if we don’t we will be
ineffective in our warfare.
Prophet – Fractured Relationships
Servant – A Victim Spirit
Teacher – A Religious Spirit
Exhorter – The Cult of Comfort
Giver – Ownership
Ruler – A Predator Spirit
Mercy – A Stronghold of Self Gratification
These strongholds are predictable and the flow from a perversion of the principles.
22.5 Step 5: Root Iniquity
We are not so much concerned with the stronghold. Demons are secondary. The
only reason they have power is because of sin. The problem is people.
We need to find the root iniquity that empowers the demonic and therefore supports
“EMMISSARIES OF THE KING” – MINISTRY TOURS – INFORMATION BOOKLET – MAY 2009

121

the specific stronghold.
Prophet – Focusing on the rights of individuals
Servant – Peace at any Cost
Teacher – Selective Responsibility
Exhorter – Denial
Giver – Spirit of Control
Ruler – Exploitation
Mercy – Stubbornness
22.6 Step 6: Essential Virtue
City reaching is not just all about iniquity we are more interested in the
righteousness because of the principle of coming in the opposite spirit. For every
iniquity there is a virtue – the opposite of the iniquity. And for the church to have
authority it needs to overtly embrace the virtue that is the opposite of the iniquity
that is supporting the demonic stronghold. The virtue flows from the principle.
Prophet – Being a rebuilder
Servant – Walk in dominion
Teacher – Sanctifying his own family
Exhorter – Embracing the pain
Giver – Walking by faith
Ruler – Being life giving
Mercy – To please God
22.7 Step 7: The Catalytic institution
Once you have developed the right virtue you are ready to move towards the
specific action in the city. We strongly recommend working with the catalytic
institution in the community (the first life giving institution in that culture).
22.8 Step 8: Birthright of the city
God will reveal this when it is His time. We cannot release the birthright if we do not
have the structures ready to hold the ground.
Let us look at the issue of curses and blessings that are on entire communities.
There are 7 different ways in which the enemy devours especially finances. They
parallel the redemptive gifts.
These are normally curses on the entire birthright keeping the church or city from
moving forward.
Prophet – The Aramean Curse (Cannot get justice)
Servant – The Moabite Curse (Cannot get started)
Teacher – The Philistine Curse (Lack key resources)
Exhorter – The Canaanite Curse (Incredibly oppressive workload)
Giver – The Midianite Curse (Seasonal devouring of money and
family relationships).
Ruler – Jotham’s curse (Perpetual betrayal from within).
Mercy – The Ammonite Curse (Barrenness and lack of fruitfulness).
These curses are connected to the gifts but no exclusive to the gifts.
• Example: Israel is giver community. Yet they suffer under the Aramean Curse in
that they cannot get justice in the international community.
So though you may know for sure that one curse is operating there may be many
more curses – even all seven.
The good news is that there are not just 7 curses but also 7 blessings. They have to
be put in place sequentially in order for us to possess our birthright.

122

Prophet – Favor
Servant – Secure borders
Teacher – Supernatural strategies
Exhorter – Time to develop your finest abilities
Giver – Being able to accrue financial and relational capital
Ruler – Building synergistically life giving institutions
Mercy – Possessing the birthright
Therefore we walk through these 7 and see what level of blessing is functioning and
where the glass ceiling is so that we can work on the next blessing that needs to be
appropriated in the process.
These are tools that affect how we approach the catalytic institution. We are
beginning to focus on the curses that are over the whole city that were typically
brought in by the catalytic institution and then seeking to release the blessings over
the catalytic institutions for the transformation of the entire city.

26 Scripture to Sow – French
Eph. 1:21 "Là le Christ est placé au-dessus toute autorité, de tout pouvoir, de toute puissance,
de toute domination et de tout autre nom qui puisse être cité non seulement dans ce monde à
venir."
1 Pierre 3:22 "Il vous sauve grâce à la résurrection de Jésus-Christ, qui est allé au ciel et se
trouve à la droite de Dieu, où il règne sur les anges et les autres autorités et puissances
célestes."
Phil. 2:9 "C'est pourquoi Dieu l'a élevé à la plus haute place et lui a donné le nom qui est plus
important que tout autre nom, afin que, par respect pour le nom de Jésus, tous les êtres qui se
trouvent dans les cieux, sur la terre et sous la terre, se mettent à genoux, et que tous
proclament que Jésus-Christ est LE SEIGNEUR, à la gloire de Dieu le Père."
Rom 14:9 "Car le Christ est mort et revenu à la vie pour être le Seigneur des morts et des
vivants." Jésus est le Seigneur de tous!"
1 Tim. 2:5 "CAR IL Y A UN SEUL DIEU, ET IL Y A UN SEUL INTERMéDIAIRE ENTRE DIEU
ET LES HOMMES, L'HOMME JéSUS-CHRIST!"
1 Cor. 8:6 "Il n'en est pas moins vrai que pour nous il n'y a qu'un seul Dieu, le Père, qui a créé
toutes choses et pour qui nous vivons; il n'y a également qu'un seul Seigneur, Jésus-Christ,
par qui toutes choses existent et par qui nous vivons."
Luc 13:3 "Non, vous dis-je; mais si vous ne changez pas de comportement, vous mourrez tous
comme eux."
Actes 3:19 "Changez donc de comportement et tournez-vous vers Dieu, pour qu'il efface vos
péchés. Alors le Seigneur fera venir des temps de repos et vous enverra le Messie qu'il avait
choisi d'avance pour vous, c'est-à-dire Jésus."
Jér. 33:6-9 "Ecoutez la France, ce que le Seigneur vous dit: "Je m'occuperai de vous comme on
signe un blessé; je vous guérirai et vous rendrai la santé; et je ferai connaître à vos habitants la
paix et la sécurité… Alors j'aurai du plaisir à prononcer le nom de la France; c'est vous qui me
ferez honneur et qui sera ma parure devant toutes les nations de la terre. Quand elles
apprendront tout le bien que je vais vous faire, elles trembleront de crainte et seront troublées
devant tant de bonheur et de prospérité. Donc, priez le Seigneur pour la nation de France, car
plus elle sera prospère plus vous les serez vous-mêmes." (Jér. 29:7b)
Prov. 1:7 "Reconnaître l'autorité du Seigneur est l'a b c de la sagesse. Ceux qui méprisent les
enseignements et les avertissements des sages sont des insensés."
1 Cor. 1:19,20 "Voici ce que l'Ecriture déclare: "Je détruirai la sagesse de sages, je rejetterai le
savoir des gens intelligents. Alors, que peut encore dire le sage? ou l'homme instruit? ou le
discuteur de ce monde? Dieu a démontré que la sagesse de ce monde est folie!"
1 Cor. 3:19 "Car la sagesse à la manière de ce monde est une folie au yeux de Dieu. En effet,
l'Ecriture déclare: "Dieu atrappe les sages au piège de leur propre ruse."
NOUS DECLARONS QU'UN ESPRIT DE SAGESSE ET DE CONNAISSANCE REGNE SUR LA
FRANCE!!!!!!!
1 Cor. 2:3-4 "C'est pourquoi je me suis présenté à vous faible et tout tramblant de crainte; mon
enseignement et ma prédication n'ont pas été donnés avec les paroles habiles de la sagesse
humaine, mais avec la manifestation convaincante de la puissance de l'Esprit divin."

2 Cor. 10:4-5 "Les armes que nous utilisons dans notre combat ne sont pas celles des hommes
de ce monde: ce sont les armes puissantes de Dieu qui permettent de détruire des forteresses.
Nous détruisons les faux raisonnements, nous renversons tout ce que l'on dresse
orgueilleusement contre la connaîssance de Dieu, nous faisons prisonnière toute pensée pour
l'amener à obéir au Christ. Et nous sommes prêts à punir toute désobéissance, dès que vous
aurez manifesté une parfaite obéissance."
Ps. 101:7,8 "Parmi ceux qui m'entourent il n'y a pas de place pour les tricheurs. Quant aux
menteurs, ils ne tiendront pas devant moi. Chaque matin je réduirai au silence tous les
malfaiteurs du pays, pour éliminer de la cité du Seigneur tous ceux qui font le malheur des
autres."
Ps. 37:10,11 "D'ici peu le méchant aura disparu; tu auras beau chercher, tu n'em trouveras plus
trace. Mais les humbles posséderont le pays et jouirront d'un large dédommagement."
Ps. 37: 13 "Mais le Seigneur se met à rire des méchants, car il voit venir le jour de la revanche."
1 Tim. 2:1-4 Nous venons pour prier et intercéder "pour tous les hommes. Il faut prier pour les
rois et tous ceux qui détiennent l'autorité, afin que nous puissions mener une vie tranquille et
paissible, avec un parfait attachement à Dieu et une conduite entièrement respectable… afin
que tous les hommes soient sauvés et parviennent à connaître la vérité."
1 Tim. 2:5 "Nous déclarons que "Il y a un seul Dieu, et il y a un seul intermédiaire entre Dieu et
les hommes, l'homme Jésus-Christ."
Eph. 1:21 "Là le Christ est placé au-dessus toute autorité, de tout pouvoir, de toute puissance,
de toute domination et de tout autre nom qui puisse être cité non seulement dans ce monde à
venir."
1 Pierre 3:22 "Il vous sauve grâce à la résurrection de Jésus-Christ, qui est allé au ciel et se
trouve à la droite de Dieu, où il règne sur les anges et les autres autorités et puissances
célestes."
Phil. 2:9 "C'est pourquoi Dieu l'a élevé à la plus haute place et lui a donné le nom qui est plus
important que tout autre nom, afin que, par respect pour le nom de Jésus, tous les êtres qui se
trouvent dans les cieux, sur la terre et sous la terre, se mettent à genoux, et que tous
proclament que Jésus-Christ est LE SEIGNEUR, à la gloire de Dieu le Père."
Rom 14:9 "Car le Christ est mort et revenu à la vie pour être le Seigneur des morts et des
vivants." Jésus est le Seigneur de tous!"
1 Tim. 2:5 "CAR IL Y A UN SEUL DIEU, ET IL Y A UN SEUL INTERMéDIAIRE ENTRE DIEU
ET LES HOMMES, L'HOMME JéSUS-CHRIST!"
1 Cor. 8:6 "Il n'en est pas moins vrai que pour nous il n'y a qu'un seul Dieu, le Père, qui a créé
toutes choses et pour qui nous vivons; il n'y a également qu'un seul Seigneur, Jésus-Christ, par
qui toutes choses existent et par qui nous vivons."
Luc 13:3 "Non, vous dis-je; mais si vous ne changez pas de comportement, vous mourrez tous
comme eux."
Actes 3:19 "Changez donc de comportement et tournez-vous vers Dieu, pour qu'il efface vos
péchés. Alors le Seigneur fera venir des temps de repos et vous enverra le Messie qu'il avait
choisi d'avance pour vous, c'est-à-dire Jésus."

Jér. 33:6-9 "Ecoutez la France, ce que le Seigneur vous dit: "Je m'occuperai de vous comme on
signe un blessé; je vous guérirai et vous rendrai la santé; et je ferai connaître à vos habitants la
paix et la sécurité… Alors j'aurai du plaisir à prononcer le nom de la France; c'est vous qui me
ferez honneur et qui sera ma parure devant toutes les nations de la terre. Quand elles
apprendront tout le bien que je vais vous faire, elles trembleront de crainte et seront troublées
devant tant de bonheur et de prospérité. Donc, priez le Seigneur pour la nation de France, car
plus elle sera prospère plus vous les serez vous-mêmes." (Jér. 29:7b)
Prov. 1:7 "Reconnaître l'autorité du Seigneur est l'a b c de la sagesse. Ceux qui méprisent les
enseignements et les avertissements des sages sont des insensés."
1 Cor. 1:19,20 "Voici ce que l'Ecriture déclare: "Je détruirai la sagesse de sages, je rejetterai le
savoir des gens intelligents. Alors, que peut encore dire le sage? ou l'homme instruit? ou le
discuteur de ce monde? Dieu a démontré que la sagesse de ce monde est folie!"
1 Cor. 3:19 "Car la sagesse à la manière de ce monde est une folie au yeux de Dieu. En effet,
l'Ecriture déclare: "Dieu atrappe les sages au piège de leur propre ruse."
NOUS DECLARONS QU'UN ESPRIT DE SAGESSE ET DE CONNAISSANCE REGNE SUR LA
FRANCE!!!!!!!
1 Cor. 2:3-4 "C'est pourquoi je me suis présenté à vous faible et tout tramblant de crainte; mon
enseignement et ma prédication n'ont pas été donnés avec les paroles habiles de la sagesse
humaine, mais avec la manifestation convaincante de la puissance de l'Esprit divin."
2 Cor. 10:4-5 "Les armes que nous utilisons dans notre combat ne sont pas celles des hommes
de ce monde: ce sont les armes puissantes de Dieu qui permettent de détruire des forteresses.
Nous détruisons les faux raisonnements, nous renversons tout ce que l'on dresse
orgueilleusement contre la connaîssance de Dieu, nous faisons prisonnière toute pensée pour
l'amener à obéir au Christ. Et nous sommes prêts à punir toute désobéissance, dès que vous
aurez manifesté une parfaite obéissance."
Ps. 101:7,8 "Parmi ceux qui m'entourent il n'y a pas de place pour les tricheurs. Quant aux
menteurs, ils ne tiendront pas devant moi. Chaque matin je réduirai au silence tous les
malfaiteurs du pays, pour éliminer de la cité du Seigneur tous ceux qui font le malheur des
autres."
Ps. 37:10,11 "D'ici peu le méchant aura disparu; tu auras beau chercher, tu n'em trouveras plus
trace. Mais les humbles posséderont le pays et jouirront d'un large dédommagement."
Ps. 37:13 "Mais le Seigneur se met à rire des méchants, car il voit venir le jour de la revanche."
1 Tim. 2:1-4 Nous venons pour prier et intercéder "pour tous les hommes. Il faut prier pour les
rois et tous ceux qui détiennent l'autorité, afin que nous puissions mener une vie tranquille et
paissible, avec un parfait attachement à Dieu et une conduite entièrement respectable… afin
que tous les hommes soient sauvés et parviennent à connaître la vérité."
1 Tim. 2:5 "Nous déclarons que "Il y a un seul Dieu, et il y a un seul intermédiaire entre Dieu et
les hommes, l'homme Jésus-Christ."
