The Hedge & The Gap . . . 

Abba Father, Your sons & daughters by the redemptive work of Christ Jesus, come before You making-up the hedge & standing in the gap in prayer that those set over the affairs of this great country which You love remain strengthened even in the very midst of intimidation (just as Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow down under the pressure of the thief that only comes to steal and kill and destroy); May all who comprise the Body of Christ by the Blood come into the “reality of redemption” which placed them under a protective umbrella with authority, and the devil underfoot, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.

The Elect . . . 

By the redemptive work of Christ Jesus, it is true according to Romans 8:1-2 unto all “in Christ”. For only those with reborn or re-created or regenerated spirits by the blood of Jesus are reconciled unto God the Father. Upon belief in the Lord Jesus the spirit is made new in an instant (Acts 2:21; Romans 10:9-13) whereas the soul (i.e., intellect, will, emotion) require continual or ongoing transformation in God’s Word by the Teaching of the Holy Spirit Who was sent to help prepare each comprising the Body of Christ. Therefore, the elect may truthfully say: “I am forgiven” in the knowing that the LORD God remembers their sins no more (Jeremiah 31:34c; Hebrews 10:17).
