How is this relevant to a modern-day believer like you? In our world today, the enemy has all but pluckedout the "right eye" of most believers in the spirit. As a result, they cannot discern when a wicked attack has

been launched against them from the pit of hell. It used to be that the believers were the first to receiveadvance spiritual knowledge in dreams or visions well ahead of time so they could prepare to strikeaggressively against the hordes of darkness.

Alas, no more. For many believers, their visions are so blurry and fuzzy as to be meaningless, or downrightconfusing. Others claim they don’t even dream anymore (not true …what the enemy has done is use aspiritual eraser to wipe off all their dreams so they wake up blank). Some who still have divine dreams

don’t remember them when they wake up, or they find the dreams so mixed up, it is impossible to makehead or tail out of them. There are serious, severe consequences here… We are talking about a spiritualepidemic of great proportions in our generation. It is a grievous situation when most believers cannot“see” the enemy diverting their blessings into his evil warehouse, while they are left scratching their headsand wondering why so many of God’s promises have not been fulfilled in their lives. In fact, any believer

who cannot receive direct revelations, divine dreams and visions from the LORD at this hour needs todeclare a spiritual state of emergency. The Bible says:“Where there is no vision, the people perish.” Prov. 29:18aI don’t know whether you’ve allowed people to (mis)interpret that scripture for you. The serpent has

blinded so many believers to what is really going on in the spirit realm … that his agents are already bragging and boasting in the spirit because they think their armies are well positioned to capture the blessings of God’s people at the hour of transition, as this year gives way to 2011, the eleventh year. I don’t

know about you, but I have decided, along with a small band of prayer warriors, to side with the Almighty to disrupt, disappoint, and dismantle their carefully laid out plans. After all, the scripture confirms thatthe LORD Himself:

Disappoints the devices of the crafty so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise. Job 5:12 You may be reading this and thinking: He is talking about arcane, ancient subjects in the Old Testament… You’d be wrong, because if you are expecting a primitive horde of attackers, armed with swords and sticks,coming out to attack, you’d be sorely mistaken. The new face of invisible aggressors warming up for theNew Year are armed to the teeth with the latest tools, tricks and technology… and they are about to turnthe very things that are supposed to enrich our lives into a weapon of war. Here’s just a taste of what I’mspeaking about here:

"I stumbled upon your website. I was searching for prayer suggestions on my broken

marriage. I have been married 31 years. This past June (5mths ago), my husband was going back to another city to paint his mom's house. The day before he left his high schoolgirlfriend friended him on Facebook. When he arrived in that city, he met up with her. Hecalled me on June 13th to tell me he met with her and decided to stay there and spend therest of his life with her..."- Name Withheld to Protect Identity Now do you see how the enemy is cleverly trying to use Facebook to destroy a 31-year-old marriage? Inthe coming year, this wicked spirit will desperately try to turn the most unlikely things (or people) against

you… and that includes your loved ones, your workmates, even your spiritual leaders. At the same time,the enemy will try to engineer disorder, chaos, breakup in every conceivable way… but armed with thiskind of advanced information you are reading now, you will be well prepared to turn the tables againsthim and his agents, no matter how well disguised. That is the first thing to note.Question #2: Thank you. What is the second big lesson?

Answer: The second big lesson to learn is that the LORD has given His prayer eagles a rare blueprint for victory against every enemy, in every situation imaginable. I am beginning to get excited here … this is theGood News! What I’d like you to notice here is my choice of words: “The LORD has given His prayereagles…”Look closely - there's a key in here, because there is a subtle distinction between an average believer and atrue prayer eagle, or prayer warrior. For one thing, the average believer feeds on only the milk of God’s

Word, while the prayer eagle goes way beyond the milk and honey messages, to embrace the strong meat.Such eagles literally run away from every appearance of sin because they understand the awfulconsequences that sin has in stunting spiritual growth, not to mention opening the door to defeat and



disgrace in the theatre of combat in the spiritual realm. In the scheme of things, these eagles are to befound in either level 3 or 4. How do I explain this? Let’s see now… please go with me to the book of Ezekielchapter 47: Afterward he brought me again to the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under thethreshold of the house eastward: for the forefront of the house stood toward the east, and the waterscame down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar. Then brought heme out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without to the utter gate by the waythat looks eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side. And when the man that had the

line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through thewaters; the waters were to the ankles. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through thewaters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; thewaters were to the loins. Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not passover: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over. And he said tome, Son of man, have you seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of theriver. Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one sideand on the other. Then said he to me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down intothe desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.

And it shall come to pass, that everything that lives, which moves, wherever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for theyshall be healed; and everything shall live where the river comes. Ezek. 47:1-9

Please pay special attention to what you're about to see now. There is an endless flowing river in the spiritright now. It is the river of the Holy Spirit. Complete and total immersion in this river is the key of powerand authority that every believer has been offered (sadly only very few are taking advantage of this greatoffer) if you are to turn the tide against every marauding enemy, and recover all that the enemy hasalready stolen from you, be it in the area of your health, your marriage or even your finances.There are 4 levels of immersion:Level #1: Ankle level – everyone starts their Christian journey from the dry land of sin and sorrow. Thenthe Lord invites us into the river of power (of the Holy Spirit), washes away our sins and baptizes us intoHis Spirit. This is our first level of relationship with the Holy Spirit. We are supposed to make progressand grow from here. But many believers are content to settle at this level, without aspiring to a closer walk

with the Spirit. Consequently their spiritual growth becomes stunted, leaving their lives bracketed withconfusion and crisis after crisis.

Level #2: Knee level – this is the second level of relationship with the Holy Spirit. At this level, the believerhas made a few strides and to her surprise and joy, she finds herself beginning to flow in one or more giftsof the Spirit. She may be able to prophesy at this level, and even discern a few things in the spirit. Howeverher commitment is rather haphazard – hot today, cold tomorrow – because she is only partially submittedto the Spirit at the best of times.Level #3: Waist level – once a believer progresses to the waist level, a real, intimate relationship begins toform. The Holy Spirit becomes her constant companion and guide. He begins to share deep secrets withher. Like the children of Issachar, she could well begin to discern the times. At this point the enemy beginsto show her a bit of respect. She is on her way to becoming a powerhouse in the spirit. But because theriver has not yet reached up to her heart and head region, she sometimes finds herself trying to use her

brain to figure out the things of the Spirit. She finds herself not always sensitive to the gentle promptingsof the Holy Spirit and may still see herself grieving the Spirit from time to time.Level #4: Overflow – this is the realm of the spiritual eagles. It is the level that we should all aspire to be.Once the river of power overflows and you’re submerged then this scripture will really come alive in yourlife:

He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) Jn. 7:38-39It is here that you become a real terror to the camp of the enemy. They cannot steal from you and get away

without being punished severely. Your word is their command. Your life becomes a flaming fire in thespirit. Your relationship with the Spirit is that of confidante, friend to friend, and He speaks with you“mouth to mouth.” At this level He will show you the secret behind most of the problems confronting youand others in your generation… and how to deal with them. He will give you words of power and dominion



to speak and destroy age-old problems, sicknesses and infirmities. He will fill you afresh everyday andsharpen your eyes to see divine opportunities like an eagle. Herein lies the blueprint of outstanding

breakthroughs and victory over every circumstance and situation in the New Year. As you aspire to thisglorious level of companionship with the Holy Ghost, the common problems plaguing most people such asconfusion, lack of divine direction, fear, dream attacks and fuzzy spiritual vision will become a thing of thepast. Yes, this is the blueprint that will turn you from spiritual underdog to spiritual champion. Andpeople around you will notice it, without you having to say a single word.Question #3: And your third major lesson?

Answer: Finally, as we advance towards the New Year, I’d like to remind my readers that every blessingGod pours out usually has four parts. I call this the 4P’s. We deal with this idea extensively in the Prayer Academy, and the LORD has graciously put His seal of approval by answering our prayers and giving ussome peculiar testimonies that, quite frankly, we cannot share on this public site. Here’s a brief peek atthis principle. The very first thing about any type of divine blessing is that it comes based on the promiseof our God in scripture.

• This is the First P – the Promise The second thing is that God Himself makes every provision, in fulfillment of His promise.

• This is the Second P – the Provision These first and second P’s are God’s responsibility, not ours. He never makes a promise without theprovision, and He never makes a provision without the promise. After that, the ball is in our court. Andhere’s where things can get a bit tricky. Why? Because every promise has an enemy and every provision

has an enemy.Their sole purpose is to make sure that believers NEVER receive the promises, and if they do, then their

job is to make sure they never have them for long.

• So there is a Third P – your PursuitHoly pursuit is required before you can really “taste” the deeper blessings from the LORD, or sustain themafter being blessed. I mean pursuing (i.e. going after them with single-minded focus) what the LORD haslaid on your heart through persistence … persistence in prayers, persistence in studying the Word and inmeditating upon it, persistence in living a holy and blameless life, even under intense pressure andprovocation, persistence in taking inspired ACTION, targeted at the intersection where His promises meet

your desires. You see a powerful example of this in the Bible. There was a time that the man David losteverything to the enemy, even though he’d already been anointed king. Here’s what he did:

And David inquired at the LORD, saying: shall I pursue after this troop? Shall I overtake them? And HE answered him, pursue: for thou shall surely overtake them, and without fail recover all. 1 Sam. 30:8So David went off in hot pursuit of the enemies who had attacked his city and carried off everything, in hisabsence. After a spectacular victory, he had this testimony to share:

I have pursued mine enemies, and overtaken them; neither did I turn again till they were consumed. Ps.18:37 Did you see this principle at work here? Sadly, here’s where most people fall down. My inbox is crammedto bursting with desperate emails from believers who somehow believed that their blessings will just falllike manna from heaven, without them having to lift a finger. They somehow think that all of God’spromises and provisions should be delivered to them on a platter of gold. What’s more, they expect God tostand guard over their blessings day and night while they do nothing. No work. No stress. No fight. They read the testimonies on our websites from those who are earnestly contending for their blessings at the

midnight hour, and they convince themselves that God is not fair to them at all. They should be sharingthose testimonies too. Well, if you are reading this, and you happen to belong to that school of thought,I’m sorry to disappoint you. It takes MORE than prayer to pull your blessings through the unseen curtainthat separates the visible from the invisible, into open manifestation in the physical world. What does ittake? A combination of aggressive prayer and divinely-inspired action. Please read your Bible well:David first prayed then took action. And the LORD backed him up. It can sometimes take a sustained

battle to enter into the deeper blessings of God.

• And that brings us to the Fourth P – long-term PossessionLook, it’s no use getting married today only to end up in the divorce court 10 months from now. The LORDmay not want to release His blessings to you until He has ascertained that you’ll be able to maintain /



sustain them over the long haul. The case of Adam is instructive here. It is a telling example of what canoccur when someone has (almost) everything delivered to him / her on a platter of gold, so to speak.

And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed. And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Gen.2:8-9

What’s the danger to a person who did not have to labor much before being blessed abundantly like this? And the serpent said to the woman, ‘you shall not surely die: For God does know that in the day you eat

thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.’ And when thewoman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also to her husband with her; and he did eat. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed

fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking inthe garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORDGod among the trees of the garden. And the LORD God called to Adam, and said to him, ‘where are you?’

And he said, ‘I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.’ And He said, ‘who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded youthat you should not eat?’ And the man said, ‘the woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.’ And the LORD God said to the woman, ‘what is this that you have done?’ And thewoman said, ‘the serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.’ Gen 3:4-13

Here the LORD did almost everything for the man Adam. The only thing left was for him to “tend” or“guard” or “protect” his blessings. Maybe because he really didn’t have to work or fight too hard to enterinto this wonderful blessing, he was a little bit negligent in keeping watch over it. This is a powerfulprinciple. Did you notice that he was not warned of the presence of a very subtle enemy, just waiting topounce and dispossess him of his inheritance? That was his job to find out, as part of guarding the garden.

After that disastrous incident, the LORD may have decided not to leave us in any doubt at all. There is anenemy, a very formidable one at that. You find that Jesus mentioned the enemy Satan more than anyoneelse in scripture. He knew the enemy. You see, not knowing that your real enemy is a spirit -- or that hehas spirit beings using human vessels and even the elements in your environment to attack you -- can lead

you to fight the wrong target, leaving the real culprit free to roam around and do much damage. To detectand deal with the real enemy in any situation you face, will require that you learn to flex your spiritualmuscles in violent, aggressive midnight prayers.

There is no shortcut to this one... It takes discipline. You’ll have to forgo your sleep some nights. Becauseany believer who refuses to learn how to flex their spiritual muscles at the midnight hour, even afterreading this special report, should not be surprised to see their divine blessings and provisions leakingaway in the year ahead. For one, it grieves me to hear how believers are losing their marriages, sometimesever so casually. And I’m not going by statistics in the public domain. I can easily show you 20,000 emailsin my inbox as evidence that the enemy has been successfully ripping apart many Christian marriages,often without any resistance at all. You hear of a well-meaning spouse, who has been a believer fordecades, suddenly running off with a younger woman. You even hear of some pastor somewhere divorcinghis wife, and getting married to some younger, more “elegant” woman in his congregation… not realizingthat he has just exchanged his ministerial calling for a pot of porridge, like Esau of old. Of course there area couple of (misinterpreted) scripture to justify this type of activity but that doesn’t make it biblical. Orright.Please take this as a spiritual call to arms! Make no mistake about it. I’ll be really saddened if, afterreading this special report, you still allow the devil in whatever guise, to steal your marriage partner or

your relationship, or your finances, or your peace, or your job, or your salvation!This is advanced spiritual warning that most people might be unwilling to share with you, because they donot want to burst your cocoon of false security or cause you alarm. But in the year ahead, it is importantfor you, the believer in Christ Jesus, to learn to defend yourself and your loved ones against your spiritualenemy/ies whose sole intent is to kill, to steal and to destroy your blessings in the spirit realm, sometimes

before they even get into your hands. Our Lord Jesus Christ said it best:The thief comes not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life,and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10



Here’s an important question for you: Do you really want to experience this abundant life that Jesus talkedabout? I believe that the three most rewarding lessons you should take into 2011 are the three foundationlessons I’ve just shared. To sum up, they are:

(1) Your knowledge of God’s blueprint for victory against the enemy (2) Your willingness to go deeper into the river of God’s anointing(3) You desire to do your part to possess your possessions

You do not have to fly blind, without knowing your left from your right. You need to thirst and hunger toknow the mind of God in every situation that confronts you. If you are willing to drink thirstily from God’sinexhaustible founts of knowledge (three of which I’ve briefly touched upon here) you can rest assuredthat the LORD is poised to manifest Himself in full force in your world throughout the New Year 2011.

Here's Your 14-Day Prayer Plan At The Gate of 2011This year we will begin our close-out prayers at the midnight hour of December 29. We will enter into theNew Year, firing on all cylinders, praying fervently and aggressively through December 31 to January 1,2011. We will continue our prayers every midnight till January 11, 2011: a total of 14 days.To All Our Prayer Eagles, from December 29, 2010 fasting is compulsory (unless you have a medicalcondition that precludes fasting – please check with your doctor). All prayer eagles on this site are toembark on a fasting-prayer program as follows:

- December 29, 2010 - Partial fast (Morning until 2:00 or 3:00 PM as the LORD gives you the grace).- December 30, 2010 - Partial fast (Morning until 2:00 or 3:00 PM as the LORD gives you the grace).- December 31, 2010 - Start of Esther Fast – DAY 1- January 1, 2011 - Esther Fast Cont’d – DAY 2- January 2, 2011 - End of Esther Fast (12:00 Noon) – DAY 3- January 3, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 4, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 5, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 6, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 7, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 8, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 9, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 10, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)- January 11, 2011 - Partial Fast (Morning till 2:00 PM)

All the prayers should be prayed AT THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. If, because of your work schedule, you arenot able to pray at the midnight hour, then you should pray VERY early in the morning before 6:00 AM.No excuses. If you do this diligently, you will surely experience the visitation of the LORD, whocommanded this march.There are 3 basic fundamentals that you need to arm yourself with, as we prepare to cross over into theNew Year. Here’s the VERY first one. And you need to apply it diligently at the “gate” i.e. midnightDecember 31, 2010. If you're ready, let's go...

We'll open this section with a short prayer. Please just close your eyes where you are now and take thissingular prayer point with fire in your spirit:

• LORD, open my spiritual understanding today in the name of Jesus. Amen.

We’ll take off by looking at the popular story of the ten virgins. In Matthew 25:1-10 we read:"Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth tomeet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took theirlamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While thebridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, ‘Behold, thebridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.’



• Doors of opportunity remained shut throughout the year.• The heavens refuse to open and pour out the expected blessings in abundance.• Divine benefits refused to manifest...• Divine helpers were nowhere to be found…• Most prayers went unanswered... leaving many believers scratching their heads.

If you keep records of all the wonderful prophecies received every year (like I do) you’ll realize that most ofthem never come to pass. It doesn't matter how many great men or women of God prophesied. Why?

Because most Christians allow the enemy (either out of ignorance or laziness) to take control of theGATES when it matters most… at the critical moment of transition when most people are in slumber. You see, in the spiritual realm, just one second’s delay can cost a person an entire year. Thankfully, theLord has not left us ignorant. He has given us a battle plan. If we execute on this plan diligently...these 90minutes AT THE GATE can save us 9 months of frustration, disappointment and sorrow.
