 *NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER**, Thursday May 7, 2009*

We flew into Sacramento earlier that afternoon, and were able to lead in
this special event at 7:00 pm. in a home of one of the New Wine leaders.
Some score or so were present. As some of you may remember, Pastor Joe
McIntyre of the SeaTac Metroplex introduced me to Al Houghton in the early
90's. Al was interested in my relationship with the 1948 Visitation in North
Battleford, Saskatchewan, Canada. Because I am the last living elder of the
7 original elders of the Camp Meeting that summer, he suggested to the
Placerville Congregation that they should have me come and share the high
points of that time. In the Spring of 2006 they acted upon his suggestion,
and we had a very profitable weekend together.


 Cindy Cowper met Marie at Port Townsend WA last year at a meeting with
Rolland Baker, grandson of H.A. Baker, author of “Visions Beyond the Veil,”
and husband of Heidi Baker of Mozambique. Cindy then invited both of us for
Mother's Day of this year, with the assigned subject of “Prayer
Multiplication,” the basis for local and city church “*Break-through”*.


 God at the last minute helped Marie with a back problem, so that she was
able to go too.


 We majored on Israel at the National Day of Prayer service, showing that
there is national blessing for the nation that blesses Israel. President
Truman and Nixon did so in their day. The prayer participation was
excellent. For our second point we prayed for President Obama. The apostle
Paul by the Spirit exhorts us to pray for our rulers, that we may live in
peace. Tom Hess of Israel encourages us to pray for our President that the
“Fear of God” may enter his heart and soul. One way to accomplish this is
through Job 33:14-18. There Elihu shows how God through dreams and visions
does 4 things for a sleeper: “He *withdraws man* from *his* *purposes*!” “He
*hides pride* from man!” “He keeps back his soul from the pit,” and - “his
life from perishing.”


 See how God used dreams for Pharaoh and Nebuchadnezzar to accomplish His
higher purposes through them! He can do the same for our President! One
doesn't have to be a “believer” to have God do so! He has converted whole
Muslim villages in one night through dreams and visions. We believe God
heard our prayers that night on our President's behalf. Join us in continued
prayer until it is fully answered.


 Through “Prayer Multiplication” *much* can be accomplished. See Deuteronomy
32:30 - one - 1000; two - 10,000! Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 - “*Two are Better
than One!” *Matthew 18:19 - *“If **two** of you shall agree (symphonize)
concerning **anything** they ask, it **shall** be done for them by my Father
in heaven,” *Jesus said! And in Zechariah 12:8 God assures inhabitants of
Jerusalem and all Gentiles of the “One New Man” according to Romans 11, that
the feeble will be as David, 10,000 fold in prayer effectuveness; and mature
leaders like David will be *as God* - one million fold! Two, 10 million; 4
couples - *one billion*! Satan and his principalities and powers over
cities, counties, states and nations will be defeated and cast down just as
when Daniel prayed, and had the help of Gabriel and Michael over Iran!


 “Meditation,” by vocally praying over select portions of Scripture back to
God, enables us to fulfill Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1; 1 Timothy 4:15; James 1:25
and portions of Jeremiah. *Then* - whatever we do in “Prayer Multiplication”
will *prosper*; and *then* we shall have *good success*.


 Friday May 8 at noon in Sacramento we met with a Chinese group, very hungry
and thirsty for God. Many were young people. Marie and I shared our
testimonies, and many responded for healing and the baptism in the Holy
Spirit. We sensed a unity, hunger and earnestness on a very high level. Many
received their heart's desire. Oswald Chambers, Rees Howells, John Wesley
and George Muller - all were ardent exhorters for disciples to be filled
with the Spirit.


 Friday and Saturday nights we again shared with the leaders of New Wine
Christian Fellowship. We majored on the tremendous blessing that comes forth
from the practice of Biblical Meditation and the use of our devotional
Prayer Language. Paul says he made use of these more than any of the
Corinthian believers. Smith Wigglesworth said it was the main secret why God
used him.


 Marie introduced McIntyre's “Corporate Warfare Prayer”, which fortunately
Cindy had copies made ahead of time. Every leader had a copy, and
corporately we read it completely through under Marie's leadership. This had
a tremendous impact no doubt. Only heaven knows what was accomplished
through this.


 On Saturday morning on the “Net” I came across Lee Grady's “*God has Pushed
a Great Big Reset Button*.” Cindy had it run off for us, and one of the
leaders completely read it at the 3rd Leader's Meeting. It was “powerful.” 4
key thoughts emerged from this reading:

1, The charismatic movement as we know it has ended.

2. A “New Generation” church is emerging.

3. God is tearing down the walls that divide us.

4. We face an unprecedented global opportunity for evangelism.


 By all means “surf the net” and download the complete article.


 Marie ended up the Saturday meeting by reading the introduction to Kelley
Varner's “The Corporate Anointing”. The complete book published by “Destiny
Image Publishers” is a vital key for God's purposes in these last days. It's
only the Corporate Body Anointing that will break through, loosing God's
plan and purposes - His power for today.


 But the Capstone of our time in Placerville with the New Wine Christian
Fellowship folk was Sunday morning - “Mother's Day.” Cindy Cowper honored
Marie as a “Mother in Israel” like Deborah by an emerald and diamond
presentation. She also likened Marie to an Esther, a Ruth, a Rahab, a Hannah
(mother of Samuel), a Hulda, Anna the prophetess and Mary the mother of
Jesus after the flesh. It was Mary who responded to Gabriel the angel's
message with, *“Be it unto me according to your word (R**E**ma}. *


 Because it was Mother's Day, I read from Proverbs 31:10-31, Solomon's
eulogy to an ideal mother - probably his own! I then had Pastor John Cowper
and Pastor Bob Gay lead us in a prayer of blessing for all mothers.


 It was the 25th Anniversary for New Wine Christian Fellowship. To launch
this in an effective way, we made use of the 27th marriage anniversary of
Pastor John & Cindy Cowper. I read the marriage portion of Ephesians
5:22-33, and pointed out that a husband and wife united as one flesh with
each other, and individually one spirit with the Lord Jesus - have a rich
basis for “Prayer Multiplication.” I also pointed out how “The Marriage
Covenant” by Derek Prince sets it out in a very clear and practical manner.
We use it all the time in pre-marital counsellings. “The Border Crossing
Sacrifice” practiced by the tribes of N.E. India, including the Hmar tribe
of Assam, present a marvelous illustration of what Christ did for us at
Calvary. When 2 chiefs in that part of the country want peace, they signal
by way of drums or a horn, meet at their respective borders, and if open,
cut a sacrifice there, and by doing so say, “*May my men so cut me, if I
break the covenant made at this border!” *How solemn!


 Marie then showed Ern Baxter's diagram of the triangle representing the
individual's *di-aTH**E**k**e*” Covenant with God: a Greater with a lesser;
the lesser can accept or reject His terms and conditions; but he
*cannot*change them! God is at the apex of the triangle, and the 2
individual
believers at the sides, progressing from 10-fold, 100-fold, 1000-fold,
10,000 fold, and in Zechariah 12:8, a million-fold!


 But these 2 individuals can then make a covenant between 2 equals, a
marriage covenant, a *sunTH**E**k**e** *covenant. It is here that “Prayer
Multiplication” commences! One a thousand, but two - ten thousand! 4 couples
- a million fold. But for those who *dare*, take Zechariah 12:8, and believe
for a billion-fold with 4 couples, elders in the gate of the city. God has
indicated that He is about to *activate* this vision!


 And - one doesn't have to be married to enter into this: 2 prayer partners
can be every bit as effective, and sometimes - *more so*!


 We called the leaders forward, prayed over John and Cindy Cowper for the
“Renewal” of their marriage vows - and also for all other couples, married
or prayer couples - who desired to enter into much more of the
“Prayer-Multiplication” potential! John and Cindy could be a leading example
of this challenge from God. This would be a worthy “break-through” for the
25th Anniversary of “New Wine Christian Fellowship.”


 When Marie entered the church that morning, Cindy Cowper and Carol Cantrell
arranged for Carol with her husband Ron to be there for the honoring of
Marie. We have known the Cantrells as a couple since February of 1990, when
Ron served as Associate Pastor at Congregation Beth Simcha of Federal Way WA
- under Murray Silberling, the Senior Pastor. What a surprise for Marie! The
shock and surprise of it brought tears to her eyes.


 Then at the close of the service, John and Cindy Cowper asked Marie and me
to sit in their chairs, so the leaders could bless us. What a blessing! Then
Ron & Carol Cantrell shared what our relationship had meant to them through
the years, and also prayed for us.


 You might say - with all that took place in one weekend, what more can
happen? Well - Marie and I turn 86 this summer, and what we shared at this
time was scarcely “the tip” of the iceberg! So it looks like we'll be
returning sooner than the last time to pick up the unused pieces.


 But the key to all of this is - *not* what Jim & Marie did, but what
*GOD*did through Jim and Marie. Our Heavenly Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ and
the Anointing of the Holy Spirit - *here* lies the Key that made this
weekend fruitful and blessed. And - plus - the prayers of many of you -
especially an intercessory prayer team in Tacoma, and the Placerville Prayer
Team. *God* answered their prayers too. So, all in all, only God deserves
the glory and the thanksgiving. He says, *“My glory, I will **not** give to
another.”* Over 20 times in one short passage in the New Testament, Paul and
Barnabas state what *God* did through them. We are merely channels.
“Channels only, blessed Master - But with all Thy wondrous power - flowing
through us - Thou canst us us - Every day - and every hour.” - Jim & Marie
Watt
