Targeting South Africa

Prayer Target: Mobilizing Intercessors to Break The Power Of The Enemy

I visited Rhode's memorial (in Cape Town) in January of 1999 with a number of friends to intercede for the city of Cape Town and the nation of South Africa, and to break the power of evil that has exalted itself at that place.

God showed me that the demonic power at Rhode's Memorial is like a lion that is roaring and making a lot of noise, but has no teeth. Over this lion I saw Jesus -- the Lion of Judah -- standing and roaring loudly over South Africa, with incredible authority and power.

God then told me to anoint the statue of Cecil Rhodes with oil, in order to cancel the curse of his kingdom over Africa.

I then turned and stretched my hands out over Cape Town and began to prophesy God's Kingdom to come in to the city, and called for His warriors to arise and do battle against the devil.

I sensed the anointing and fire of God going out from there across South Africa. God will build His Kingdom from Cape Town to Cairo and then across to Jerusalem, before it spreads outwards across the earth.

Where Cecil Rhodes wanted to build a human kingdom through Africa, using corruption, abuse, destruction and death, but failed to complete his task, God Himself will build a highway of love, holiness, prayer and revival glory.

God also showed me that Rhode's memorial will become a place of prayer for Africa, and that many people will come and pray there. There will come a time when those who come to Rhode's Memorial to take part in witchcraft and occult practices will be saved by the power and love of God in the place or will flee in terror from the holiness and glory of God's presence.

We shared communion in front of Rhode's memorial (12 of us in the group) and we experienced a very powerful breaking of evil in front of the statue, and I felt God's fire going out from there across the city.

Please join me in praying:

Lord, we lift the nation of South Africa to you. Lord, we ask that you would break down each of the spiritual strongholds that the enemy has established against this nation. Lord, if spiritual warfare is needed for any of these, raise up the warriors. Give them supernatural insights into the schemes and strategies of the enemy. Give them your strategies to tear down Satan's strongholds and to advance your kingdom.

Lord, raise up the intercessors from Your people in South Africa. Anoint them and teach them to pray your will into existence on earth, just as you have already declared it in Heaven. Empower them to pray your heart for their nation and for the Nations in Africa.

Lord, we ask that you put a special anointing and covering over Rhode's Memorial. Make it a place of prayer. Hear the prayers of your people there, just as you heard their prayers at Solomon's temple after it had been build to honor you. We repeat back to you Solomon's prayer of dedication for the temple, and ask that you would do this for Rhode's Memorial as well, since You have chosen and anointed that as a place of prayer:

1 Kings 8

28. Yet have thou respect unto the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplication, O LORD my God, to hearken unto the cry and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee to day:
29. That thine eyes may be open toward this place night and day, even toward the place of which thou hast said, My name shall be there: that thou mayest hearken unto the prayer which thy servant shall make toward this place.
30. And hearken thou to the supplication of thy servant, and of thy people, when they shall pray toward this place: and hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place: and when thou hearest, forgive.
31. If any man trespass against his neighbor, and an oath be laid upon him to cause him to swear, and the oath come before thine altar in this house:
32. Then hear thou in heaven, and do, and judge thy servants, condemning the wicked, to bring his way upon his head; and justifying the righteous, to give him according to his righteousness.
33. When thy people be smitten down before the enemy, because they have sinned against thee, and shall turn again to thee, and confess thy name, and pray, and make supplication unto thee in this house:
34. Then hear thou in heaven, and forgive the sin of thy people, and bring them again unto the land which thou gavest unto their fathers.
35. What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
36. Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men;)
37. That they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.
38. Moreover concerning a stranger, that is not of thy people, but cometh out of a far country for thy name's sake;
39. (For they shall hear of thy great name, and of thy strong hand, and of thy stretched out arm;) when he shall come and pray toward this house;
40. Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and do according to all that the stranger calleth to thee for: that all people of the earth may know thy name, to fear thee, as do thy people.

AMEN.
