Day 33: Persevering in Prayer and Faith
Galatians 6:9 (NIV):
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Dear Friends,
As we approach the final stretch of the "40 Days to Save America" campaign of prayer, fasting and repentance, Day 33 reminds us of the importance of perseverance. In moments when challenges seem overwhelming, God calls us to keep pressing forward in prayer and faith. His Word encourages us that perseverance will produce a harvest, even when the results are not yet visible. Today, let us renew our commitment to seeking God, knowing that in His perfect timing, He will bring about the breakthrough we long for.

Special Feature #1: Breaking: “Snakes in the Water” | Sunday Night Live with Pastor Paul Begley
What a truly remarkable show from Pastor Paul Begley’s Sunday Night Live broadcast. The message, titled “Snakes in the Water,” delved into much more than just a literal storm and snakes—it carried a prophetic urgency that resonates with the unfolding events happening around the world right now.
From an undisclosed location, Pastor Begley began by addressing the recent cyclone that struck Odisha, India. The cyclone not only caused severe flooding but also unleashed an unexpected menace—venomous snakes forced out by the storm. Twenty-eight people were hospitalized after being bitten, and the eerie image of “snakes in the water” became the symbol for more than just a natural disaster. As Pastor Begley revealed, this phenomenon is also a spiritual sign—a warning that serpents of deception and chaos are lurking, ready to strike, even in our most critical moments, like the ongoing global crises and the upcoming U.S. election.
Israel Under Attack: A Prophetic Battle
The service quickly turned to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, where Pastor Begley highlighted Israel’s relentless battle against multiple enemies. After Hamas’ brutal attack in Gaza and Hezbollah’s threats from southern Lebanon, Israel now faces the challenge of rooting out terrorist cells in the West Bank, while also preparing for the looming Iranian threat. The prophetic nature of these events is undeniable, echoing through the Bible’s promises and warnings.
Begley connected this back to biblical history—Abraham’s covenant, the Exodus, and the conquest of the Promised Land under Joshua. Just as Israel fought against the Nephilim and other ancient enemies, today’s battles are a continuation of that age-old spiritual warfare. Iran's ambitions, Hamas' brutality, and Hezbollah’s threats align with what the Bible foretold, and Begley warned that this war is far from over. Israel’s restraint in not striking Iranian nuclear facilities may be temporary, but prophecy suggests Iran’s downfall is inevitable.
A riveting account of current events as foretold in the mysterious Book of Revelation. Are we teetering on the edge of the end of time? Discover more in Pastor Paul Begley and Troy Anderson’s #1 bestseller Revelation 911.
Signs in the Heavens: Solar Flares, Comets, and Asteroids
In addition to the earthly conflicts, Begley pointed to the heavens, where signs are appearing just as Jesus predicted. The sun has been erupting with powerful X-class solar flares, releasing intense radiation and causing geomagnetic storms. As Begley reminded viewers, these cosmic events are part of the biblical prophecy that speaks of signs in the sun, moon, and stars.
Comet Atlas, one of many fragments from a larger comet that disintegrated a thousand years ago, is headed straight for the sun. At the same time, asteroid 2024 UQ1 is set to scrape past the Earth tomorrow at an incredibly close distance—only 0.6 lunar units. These celestial warnings, combined with the tremors of recent earthquakes in Russia and the threat of a super-volcano under New York City, suggest we are in the midst of the birth pangs Jesus described in Matthew 24.
The Election: “Snakes in the Water”
But perhaps the most profound message from Sunday night’s service was the warning about “snakes in the water.” Pastor Begley used this as a metaphor for the deception and corruption plaguing the current political atmosphere. As the U.S. heads into what could be the most pivotal election since the Revolutionary War, Begley likened the political forces at play to serpents lurking, ready to deceive and destroy.
Trump’s rally in New York City, with 15,000 people lining up early in the morning, signals a shift in the atmosphere. The battle between good and evil, truth and deception, is intensifying. Just as Israel faces enemies at its borders, America is grappling with its own spiritual warfare. These snakes—symbolic of lies, manipulation, and betrayal—are striking at the heart of our nation.
Spiritual Warfare: Protecting Against the Serpents
Throughout the broadcast, Pastor Begley emphasized the importance of spiritual protection in these chaotic times. Drawing from Ecclesiastes, he reminded us that when the foolish rule, serpents bite. But wisdom is our weapon. Just as the Apostle Paul shook off the deadly viper in the Book of Acts, we too must be vigilant, shaking off the lies and schemes of the enemy.
Ultimately, Pastor Begley called us to remain steadfast in prayer, armed with the knowledge of Christ’s ultimate victory over sin, death, and deception. As the Bible tells us, we are in the midst of the final battle, but we can take heart—Jesus is coming soon, and our redemption is drawing near.

Special Feature #2: A Gift as Part of Our "40 Days to Save America" Initiative
We are thrilled to share a very special gift from our Brother-in-Christ, Bill Siegel: his thought-provoking booklet, Trump and the War Against the Babelists. Bill Siegel has graciously offered a free download of this booklet for our cherished community. We believe this insightful read will be a blessing to you and provide valuable perspectives on the real-world and spiritual battles we are facing during this critical time.
In Trump and the War Against the Babelists, Siegel delves into the intense and multifaceted struggles surrounding President Donald Trump’s political journey, including Trump’s potential connection to the biblical figure Job, enduring relentless trials and tribulations for a greater purpose.
Siegel’s short booklet explores the spiritual and ideological battle he believes is at the heart of Trump’s story, pitting him against the “Babelists”—those who, like the builders of the Tower of Babel, seek to challenge divine authority and establish global control. The booklet addresses themes of faith, power struggles, and the enduring clash between those who seek to uphold America’s spiritual foundations and those who advocate for a new world order. Through this lens, Trump and the War Against the Babelists offers a unique interpretation of contemporary political events, placing them in the context of a timeless spiritual struggle.
We hope you will take advantage of this generous offer as we join together during these 40 days, seeking God’s guidance and strength for America’s future.

Prayer by Rev. Kevin Jessip, Co-Founder, The Return
*Sunday's Prayer Points* October 27th, 2024
Good Morning Holy Spirit! Thank you, Lord, for this beautiful day that you have made! We will rejoice and be glad in it. With your help, we shall succeed in our prayers and declarations today, in Jesus Name!
Prayer #1: *Today, we pray that any and all of Satan's spiritual blindness and darkness over Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Joe Biden, and President Donald Trump be removed from their hearts and that the Holy Spirit would convict them of sin, righeousness, and judgement. We pray that their spiritual eyes be fully opened and that genuine salvation and repentance toward God, the Father of all Creation, take place in them, in Jesus Name! Further, we pray that they all receive the infilling of the Holy Ghost!*
- Acts 26:16-19
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. 19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:
*1st Tim. 2:1-3
2. Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,
*2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance
3. *In the Name of Jesus, we break and destroy the wicked and demonic counsels of evil men of the deep state over Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz and that their own conscience show them that they are not qualified to the President and Vice President of America, respectively.*
— 1st John 3:20-22*
20 Whenever our conscience condemns us, we will be reassured that God is greater than our conscience and knows everything. 21 Dear friends, if our conscience doesn’t condemn us, we can boldly look to God 22 and receive from him anything we ask. We receive it because we obey his commandments and do what pleases him.
— 2 Sam.15: 31
And one told David, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” And David said, “O Lord, I pray Thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”
— 2 Sam. 17:14
14 And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the Lord had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the Lord might bring evil upon Absalom.
— Prov. 19:21* NKJV
There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the LORD’s counsel—that will stand.
Prayer #3: *We are praying and declaring that the finances, the systems, and the resources of the financially powerful businessmen of corrupt minds and the climate change pseudo-science men of the earth who are adversely affecting America, its Elections, and its righteous, morally based judicial system, COLLAPSE and PLUNDER, in Jesus Name!*
These are lovers of money and power rather than lovers of God and the American People. Let their wealth and influence over America and the nations collapse and plunder before their eyes, in Jesus Name.
*1st. Tim 4:4-10*
1 Timothy 6:3-10
King James Version
3 If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. 6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. 9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with *Many (George) Sorrows.*
— *Rev. 18:23*
23 And the *light of a candle (The Church)* shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom *(Jesus)* and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men *(businessmen)* of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
*For the sake of those who do not know and understand here this:*
*Sorcery in the Greek*, is the word: pharmakei. It has to do with pseudo-science... witchcraft, misuse of drugs, and occultic practices.
*1st. Tim 6:20.*
20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called. *They oppose truth and real science.*
— *Matt. 16:17-18*
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven..18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will *BUILD MY CHURCH*; and the *GATES OF HELL (Bill Gates)* shall not prevail against it.
— 1st Cor. 15:51-52*z
51 Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, tbut we shall all be changed, 52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the *LAST TRUMP (Donald Trump's Generation)* . For the trumpet will sound, and vthe dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.
Let's Declare together:
As the Lord's Rapture is imminent and near upon us, *We say the Lord’s Church and The Last Trump shall prevail against all Antichrist Agendas and Administrations, in Jesus Name!*
Let us pray!

Presidential Reflections: A Call to Prayer and Repentance
Each day, we draw inspiration from historical figures who called the nation to prayer and repentance during times of great challenge. Today, I’m reflecting on President Ulysses S. Grant, who, in 1871, issued a Proclamation for Thanksgiving Day. In this heartfelt message, Grant reminded the nation of the blessings bestowed upon them by Almighty God, while also calling for compassion for those less fortunate.
In his proclamation, Grant acknowledged the nation's blessings
"Industry has been generally well rewarded. We are at peace with all nations, and tranquillity, with few exceptions, prevails at home."
He recognized the nation's success and merciful protection, urging the people to gather in their places of worship on November 30, 1871, to offer thanks to God for His kindness and blessings.
Grant also called for humility and empathy for those who had faced hardships, reminding us to support our neighbors through prayers and acts of kindness:
"Invoke His protection and kindness for their less fortunate brethren, whom in His wisdom He has deemed it best to chastise."
As we reflect on Grant’s words, we are reminded that, even in times of peace and prosperity, we must turn to God in gratitude while extending compassion to those in need. Let us offer our prayers with humble hearts, seeking to uplift others and express our thankfulness through acts of charity and care
By President Ulysses S. Grant, 18th President of the United States: 1869 ‐ 1877
Daily President’s Prayer: President Ulysses S. Grant’s Proclamation 202—Thanksgiving Day, October 28, 1871
A Proclamation
The process of the seasons has again enabled the husbandman to garner the fruits of successful toil. Industry has been generally well rewarded. We are at peace with all nations, and tranquillity, with few exceptions, prevails at home. Within the past year we have in the main been free from ills which elsewhere have afflicted our kind. If some of us have had calamities, these should be an occasion for sympathy with the sufferers, of resignation on their part to the will of the Most High, and of rejoicing to the many who have been more favored.
I therefore recommend that on Thursday, the 30th day of November next, the people meet in their respective places of worship and there make the usual annual acknowledgments to Almighty God for the blessings He has conferred upon them, for their merciful exemption from evils, and invoke His protection and kindness for their less fortunate brethren, whom in His wisdom He has deemed it best to chastise.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington, this 28th day of October, A.D. 1871, and of the Independence of the United States the ninety-sixth.
U. S. GRANT.
By the President:
HAMILTON FISH, Secretary of State .
