<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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
“</span><u>Break-through”</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">.
</span>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">God at the last minute helped
Marie with a back problem, so that she was able to go too.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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
</span><u>withdraws man</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> from
</span><u>his</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> </span><u>purposes</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">!”
“He </span><u>hides pride</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
from man!” “He keeps back his soul from the pit,” and - “his
life from perishing.”</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">Through “Prayer Multiplication”
</span><u>much</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> can be
accomplished. See Deuteronomy 32:30 - one - 1000; two - 10,000!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 - “</span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>Two
are Better than One!” </b></span><span style="text-decoration: none;">Matthew
18:19 - </span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>“If </b></span><u><b>two</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>
of you shall agree (symphonize) concerning </b></span><u><b>anything</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>
they ask, it </b></span><u><b>shall</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>
be done for them by my Father in heaven,” </b></span><span style="text-decoration: none;">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 </span><u>as God</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
- one million fold! Two, 10 million; 4 couples - </span><u>one
billion</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">! 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!</span></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">“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. </span><u>Then</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> -

<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>

</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">On Saturday morning on the “Net”
I came across Lee Grady's “</span><u>God has Pushed a Great Big
Reset Button</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">.” Cindy had
it run off for us, and one of the leaders completely read it at the
3</span><sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">rd</span></sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">
Leader's Meeting. It was “powerful.” 4 key thoughts emerged from
this reading: </span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">1, The charismatic movement as
we know it has ended.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">2. A “New Generation” church
is emerging.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">3. God is tearing down the walls
that divide us.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">4. We face an unprecedented
global opportunity for evangelism.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;" align="left">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="text-decoration: none;">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, </span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>“Be
it unto me according to your word (R</b></span><b>E</b><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>ma}.
</b></span>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">It was the 25</span><sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">th</span></sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">
Anniversary for New Wine Christian Fellowship. To launch this in an
effective way, we made use of the 27</span><sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">th</span></sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">
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, “</span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>May
my men so cut me, if I break the covenant made at this border!” </b></span><span style="text-decoration: none;">How
solemn!</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">Marie then showed Ern Baxter's
diagram of the triangle representing the individual's </span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>di-aTH</b></span><u><b>E</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>k</b></span><u><b>e</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;">”
Covenant with God: a Greater with a lesser; the lesser can accept or
reject His terms and conditions; but he </span><u>cannot</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
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!</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">But these 2 individuals can then
make a covenant between 2 equals, a marriage covenant, a </span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>sunTH</b></span><u><b>E</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>k</b></span><u><b>e</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>
</b></span><span style="text-decoration: none;">covenant. It is here
that “Prayer Multiplication” commences! One a thousand, but two -
ten thousand! 4 couples - a million fold. But for those who </span><u>dare</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">,
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
</span><u>activate</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> this
vision!</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">And - one doesn't have to be
married to enter into this: 2 prayer partners can be every bit as
effective, and sometimes - </span><u>more so</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">!</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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 25</span><sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">th</span></sup><span style="text-decoration: none;">
Anniversary of “New Wine Christian Fellowship.”</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">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.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0.01in; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="text-decoration: none;">But the key to all of this is -
</span><u>not</u><span style="text-decoration: none;"> what Jim &
Marie did, but what </span><u>GOD</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
did through Jim and Marie. Our Heavenly Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ and the Anointing of the Holy Spirit - </span><u>here</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
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. </span><u>God</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
answered their prayers too. So, all in all, only God deserves the
glory and the thanksgiving. He says, </span><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>“My
glory, I will </b></span><u><b>not</b></u><span style="text-decoration: none;"><b>
give to another.”</b></span><span style="text-decoration: none;">
Over 20 times in one short passage in the New Testament, Paul and
Barnabas state what </span><u>God</u><span style="text-decoration: none;">
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</span></p>
