Friends:

 

As you know, we don't normally send extra letters.  However, this one merits our attention.  I hope you will do as we have done, and that is to send this on to other believers in your circles.

 

In His Bond,

 

Bob

Subject: Important Message from Ted Haggard, President of The World Prayer Team

> Dear Praying Christians,
>  
> The headline in the Chicago Sun-Times today is "U.S. Offers Saddam a 1-Way Ticket Out." The article opens by saying, "The Bush administration, weighing whether to set a deadline for Saddam Hussein to disarm, offered on Wednesday to try to help find a haven for the Iraqi president and his 'henchmen' as a way to avert war." The next paragraph warns that time is running out, "We're entering the final phase."
>  
> The article uses Idi Amin, Napoleon, Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier, and Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos as examples of leaders who went into exile in order to avert disaster.
>  
> It's time for us to pray specifically. Today, The World Prayer Team is calling a world-wide prayer focus for Saddam to receive a desire from God to leave Iraq.
>  
> On Sunday night, January 19th, 1,500 people attended a prayer meeting at New Life Church in Colorado Springs, to pray for Saddam. The Lord directed us to pray these three sets of Scripture. All of them were written dealing with Nebuchadnezzar. They apply to Saddam because he currently rules over the same geographic area that Nebuchadnezzar ruled.
>
> * Daniel 4:31 "This is what is decreed for you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your royal authority has been taken from you."
> * Daniel 4:4-5 "I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at home in my palace, contented and prosperous. I had a dream that made me afraid. As I was lying in my bed, the images and visions that passed through my mind terrified me."
> * Daniel 2:1 "In the second year of his reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; his mind was troubled and he could not sleep."
>
> Please forward this email to the praying Christians within your sphere of influence to pray that God would deal powerfully with Saddam while he sleeps, just as he did Nebuchadnezzar. If we can motivate over a million Christians to pray for Saddam, God will deal with him, remove his royal authority, and he will leave Iraq.

> God bless you. Let's pray!
