Using God’s Word to Pray - Terri Copeland Pearsons The Word of God is the foundation of our prayer life. This is so vital to know and understand. We need the grace of God to help us focus on uncovering His Word as that foundation for our lives, the source of our faith, and most importantly, our connection with God Himself. Imagine, when we hold our Bibles, we have in our hands the source of all created matter. God spoke and it was. From the tiniest particle to the explosiveness of the sun and how every part in between relates to each other. His Word is so infallible and so certain that God has bound Himself and the existence of all things to it. It is God’s most tangible gift of Himself to us. It is the cornerstone of prayers that receive results. Thankfully, the Lord did not leave us to uncover or understand the depth of such magnificence on our own. It is by the Holy Spirit that we understand, and by the Spirit that we also speak. The Father, the Spirit and the Word agree (1 John 5:7). By permission of the Father, the Spirit reveals to men what the Father said (John 16:13-14). continued on pg. 2 continued from pg. 1 Then He makes that Word relevant to our lives. He shines the light of the Word into the deepest part of our being so we can understand who we are, what we’ve been given and our role in God’s eternal purpose and plan. Many of us realize God’s universal plan is laid out in His Word. But not many have considered that the part our individual lives play in His purpose for mankind is in there as well. Not just what the plan looks like, but more importantly, within those words of God lies the power to bring destiny to pass. And within those same words lies the power to bring our own destiny to pass. The Word says the power of life and death is in our tongue (Proverbs 18:21). We actually give life to the plan of God when we say what He says. God has given us His Word so we can put it into our hearts and pray prayers back to Him that are productive and full of faith. Because the Word of God is the foundation of our prayer life, read and meditate it constantly. Talk to God on the basis of what He has already said to you in the Scriptures. It is our place to call forth those things that be not as though they were so we can fully accomplish all He has for us to do. It is our privilege to work with Him by speaking His Word so all He has in His heart will come to pass. Pastors George and Terri Pearsons are senior pastors of Eagle Mountain International Church on the grounds of Kenneth Copeland Ministries in Fort Worth, Texas. ...within those words of God lies the power to bring destiny to pass. And within those same words lies the power to bring our own destiny to pass. Is your prayer life EXCITING? Have you ever needed a BOOST to jump start your prayer times?

This nation is ours not by chance but by design. Acts 17:26 says that God determined our “times, and the boundaries of our dwellings….” So whether you were born here or this is your adopted nation. Canada’s future is your inheritance. Thrust into a world of unknowns as a young inexperienced pastor, Timothy was charged by the Apostle Paul to “ …wage the good warfare…” with “ … the prophecies previously made concerning you…” (1 Timothy 1:18). For Timothy, even in the midst of uncertainty as to how to affect change in this new “world” of pastoring a church, the Apostle Paul gave him only this charge. Pray about your future using the words you received prophetically. Bring those words to pass! Excerpts from Prophetic Words: Oct 26, 1995 Canada Victory Campaign – Hamilton, ON Kenneth Copeland: “…I have picked this spot, saith the Lord, to become a fountain…that will flow from here out to the rest of the nation…the rest of this part of the world…flow to the south and down through the Unites States…to the outermost parts of the earth.” June 7, 2002 Vancouver Victory Campaign – Vancouver, BC Canada’s future is in the hands of the “pray’ers”. Join us as we take the prophetic words spoken over our nation and “wage war.” Pray. Join with us as we allow these words from God over our nation to take root in our hearts and proceed from our mouth as we bring the future to pass.

Manifestations of great glory…manifestations of the Most High God. He has planned a major portion of it to take root…right out of the heart of the Canadian people. And it will grow and grow… it will explode upward first, then begin to spread out…downward from here into the United States…Mexico…around this world!” September 15th, 2006 KCM Canada Pastors Breakfast – Surrey, BC Pastor George Pearsons to Pastors in Canada: “To the Nation of Canada you must declare, ‘Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! It is time to get back up!’” Our Partners...and You? Partner Spotlight MY Canada/TheCry Canada - Faytene Kryskow We have been in what is arguably the most profound season of positive transformation that Canada has seen. Whether it is up-close here in Ottawa at MY Canada or through our national prayer meetings called TheCRY, we have been privileged to watch this change in our nation unfold. Through TheCRYs we have seen thousands of Christians, young, old and from every culture and denomination, gather to pray, fast and believe God to release heaven on earth in Canada. Thousands have rallied at TheCRYs from St. John’s, Newfoundland to Iqualuit, Nunavut to Vancouver, BC and many locations in between. It has been exhilarating to watch these fervent prayer events unfold and answers to prayer rush in on our nation! Through MY Canada we lead hundreds of spirit-filled young adults into what has been over 600 face-to-face meetings with our Parliamentarians to pray, prophesy and exhort them to stand for Godly values. This group of dynamic young adults has received audience with the Prime Minister and his office, on a few occasions. As believers like you have prayed, fasted and stepped out in prayerful action, a shift in our nation has occurred! As a nation we have begun to bless Israel, we have addressed historical ‘wrongs’ committed towards the First Peoples of Canada, raised the age of sexual consent, cracked down on human trafficking and child pornography and truly the list could go on. Recent statistics have shown a drop in youth drug, alcohol and cigarette addiction as well as a decrease in youth engaging in pre-marital sex. A recent report stated an estimated 40% of our Parliamentarians now profess to be believers in Jesus Christ. Recently our very own Prime Minister stated openly in a national interview that he fears the judgment of God more than what the history books will say about him. God has a plan for Canada. The Lord is calling all of us to maintain the ground that has been taken and continue to press forward in prayer. With the Olympics, “G7” and “G8” global leadership summits all landing within our borders in 2010, it is clear that God is positioning us as a model to the world! Canada needs faith-filled believers to pray for our leaders believing to see Canada blessed! That blessing looks like destinies being fulfilled, souls harvested and healing released to the “ends of the earth” (Psalm 72:8)! Thank you KCM Canada for your support and standing with us for Canada. God has a dream for this nation and together in prayer we will see it come true.

Karl was a powerful minister of the gospel, praying with many of you over the phones, proclaiming God’s Word with you and for you. It was a ministry he cherished. Karl was featured in our spring newsletter one year ago. It is much too early to be sharing the news of Karl’s passing into the presence of our Lord, as he was only 61 years of age. Karl was a man who was full of the love of God. That force flowed from a very real, moment-bymoment, authentic faith-walk with Jesus. It was seen daily. Though often quiet in demeanor, it was not uncommon for Karl to minister to the staff during daily devotions through a prophetic word or song. His beautiful singing voice, strong character and soft heart are dearly missed. The weight of his character left an imprint within every person ministering alongside him here. His legacy is this...he loved. We all endeavor to honour that legacy by being like him because he was so like Christ. With Karl’s passing we remember his family in prayer. We invite you to do the same.
