2017 EDITION

GATES OF FIRE
The Prayer Blueprint for Shocking
Breakthroughs in 2017
She Had Decided on Suicide
Until This Happened...

She knew how she was going to do it.

She was going to drink a deceptively mild

but fast-acting deadly poison.

Curl up on her designer couch.

Cover herself with a blanket to keep warm.

Put her favorite music on.

And allow the poison to take her … for good.

But first …

She decided to visit that curious prayer website one more time.

She found an email address on the site.

She wrote down her plans and pressed <Send>.

Within minutes a reply came back.

With a story.

Page 1 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

It wasn’t a dramatic story.

It was a short testimony.

It was about a woman who lost her husband.

To another woman.

The testimony had an unusual ending.

It ended with a “wicked” little prayer.

A prayer with razor-sharp teeth.

One hour later, the woman threw out the poison.

She never contemplated suicide again.

Testimonies (and the prayers that trigger them) change lives.

Testimonies send your enemies roaming the streets,

weeping and gnashing their teeth.

Testimonies bring heaven to earth.

Serious Question:

Do you want your life full of testimonies in 2017?

If so, you must read this Blueprint to the end.

Reading time: 37 minutes.

Fun and easy reading, nothing complicated.

One little prayer was all it took for that suicidal lady to change her mind.

Yes, one prayer.

Just one prayer prayed with FIRE in your spirit…

… can (potentially) change your entire destiny in 2017.

This Will be Shorter Than Usual…

I Have a Flight to Catch

From: Elisha Goodman Sunday, 2:30 A.M.

(Prayer Trenches, City of Roses)

Calvary greetings …

The experiences of yesterday, no matter how glorious,

cannot guarantee victory in today’s battles.

The challenges of today must be confronted with something

new and fresh… big, bold, and daring.

Before we go one step further, we need to pause for prayers.

Please close your eyes and take these 3 prayers like a volcanic eruption.

#1: Let the fire of the Holy Spirit heat every area of my life in Jesus name.

#2: LORD, quicken my spirit and supercharge my desire for the things
of Heaven in Jesus name.

#3: O LORD, let your holy fire generate power for victory in every
area my life in the name of Jesus.

Praise the LORD.

Since we’re praying about fire and power,

let me show you something I just received in my inbox…

… 4 days ago.

It is an email from a widow.

Page 3 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

A helpless, defenseless widow.

Terrorized by thieves and robbers.

It has a “dangerous” ending...

So, I have to warn you ahead of time.

Some people might say it has a bitter-sweet taste to it.

However, I’m sharing it here for a purpose …

and that will become clearer as we go on.

*** The Widow’s Story ***

She is a widow struggling daily to provide for her children.

Thieves broke into her house for the second time this year and had a field day with her
household goods.

They sprayed some chemicals to make her sleep so no one heard a sound.

She cried out to the Lord to expose these people.

Her niece joined her in prayer.

They held a prayer vigil in her church concerning her plight.

She prayed like this:

“O Lord, expose these thieves since you’re Father to the fatherless, and husband to
the husbandless.”

Then she was inspired to do something.

With her last savings, she put up an electric fence with a razor wire to safeguard her
home.

On Sunday, the thieves came back trying to gain access to her home.

ZAP.

Page 4 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

One was electrocuted.

He died on Tuesday.

He happened to be her neighbor’s son…

We’re going to
pray again ...

‘I barricade my family with the electric fence

of the Almighty in the name of Jesus.’

Now we’re ready to begin.

This is a true story. She sent me the email two days later, on the 22nd.

It is unfortunate that the young man met his untimely death in this manner.

I wish he had lived to repent and turn over a new leaf.

Now there are 3 crucial lessons here.

Crucial Lesson #1:

Prayer + Inspired Action

This widow prayed.

But she did not stop there.

She followed up with action. Inspired action.

She emptied her savings account to construct that fence.

Now, she could have done other things to avoid spending that money. After all, she
did not have much to spare. But that’s what she was inspired to do.

From now on, no thief would dare set foot in that place.

Page 5 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

The keywords here: Inspired. Action.

Throughout 2016 I talked about the need to take inspired action after prayer.

Thankfully, thousands listened … and that has released a flood of testimonies that you
will see shortly.

Crucial Lesson #2:

Prayer + The Word of God

Right here, you have an explosive combination.

She searched for the Scriptures to back up her petition before the Lord.

A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,

is God in his holy dwelling. – Psalm 68:5

For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name;
and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth
He is called. – Isa. 54:5

This is greatly important…

She combined these two verses into a ‘dangerous,’ blistering, targeted prayer… and
then fused her petition to it as she cried out:

“O Lord, expose these thieves since you’re Father to the fatherless, and husband to
the husbandless.”

She was asking the LORD of the heavens and earth to arise and defend her.

And answer He did.

She reminds me of two people in the Bible.

One was David.

The other? Job.

Page 6 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

Most people do not know this…

... but one of the greatest prayer warriors in the Bible was the man Job.

His prayers were astonishing.

You have to wonder how he had such insights about the heavens, without the benefit
of the space technology we have today.

No wonder the Lord specifically instructed his three erstwhile friends to go to him for
deliverance prayers… in order to avoid divine judgment.

(Hint: In the upcoming prayer session, so many exciting prayers are culled from the
book of Job. You are about to have a taste of these shortly.)

Crucial Lesson #3:

Prayer + Community

You notice she did NOT pray alone.

Her niece joined her. She took it to her church. Others believers jumped in. They held
a prayer vigil for her.

Now I can almost hear someone saying:

“My church is not a praying church.”

“No one would care to join me in prayer.”

Well… I can tell you this.

In 2017 a church that does not rally her members to pray and pray and pray will be
like an eagle trying to fly with one wing cut off.

Though an eagle… its potentials will be severely limited.

And the membership will be exposed to unnecessary risk… and all kinds of evil
attacks.

Page 7 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

That’s the reason the LORD led us to set up the Eagles Forum last year. Each program
has its own separate Forum.

All the participants sign into the Forum.

Other prayer eagles are in there day and night to lift up one another, encourage,
strengthen, and join hands with you to call upon the LORD in unison.

Inside the Forum, we take this scripture seriously.

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another
so that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous
man avails much. – James 5:16

During the upcoming prayer session, everyone gets to have a taste of what happens in
there…

… as we briefly open our new community Chat Forum to the public just for this
event.

Please do not dismiss the importance of being part of a battlefront praying community
like this one.

Drawing from these simple lessons we share, our prayer eagles found themselves
running rings around the enemy of their destiny all through 2016.

For some it was the best of years.

Yet for others… not so much.

So I will start off with this huge disclaimer.

Disclaimer
Please note that the testimonials and praise reports here
are NOT typical. You may or may not get any results from using the
principles taught here. In other words, this may not work for you at all.
On the other hand, they have worked for thousands just like you. Who’s
to say they will not work for you? May the Lord richly bless you.

Following the Prayer Blueprint…

"My fiance got fired, then re-hired and promoted by same company!"

I prayed and asked God to provide my fiance with a job since he lost his previous
post. In less than 30 days he received a call and he was hired by the same
company that fired him and this time he was now the branch manager, not as an
assistant as he was before. When praying for breakthrough in 2016, I joined the
prayer-fasting asking for a brand new car. In March 2016 I bought that car. Praise
the Lord. - Cebisile

"The enemy fought hard to stop me from getting married - and failed"

Jesus has done it for me. After the enemy fought my getting married, he failed. I
was involved on a fatal accident twice on the same day, the day I was traveling to
have my fiancée come ask for my hand in marriage from my family. My life was
spared with no bruises. That night, I cried to God to show me what's fighting me,
and I was shown a powerful ruler who is the strong man that was fighting me, and
he wanted me dead, because all else had failed.

I closed my eyes and prayed that God would answer me by fire, because I had
cried enough. Just a small fire that landed on our compound, then it spread all over
the compound, and then it turned into a big blazing fire. Then a voice thundered
from the fire saying, ask of me anything you want, anything at all, and it shall be

 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

done. I almost failed to speak, but I pushed the words out of my breath anyway, So
I asked for two things, that my wedding would be a success, and that God would
make my new family an established one in God. We just had a wonderful wedding,
praise the Lord - Betsy

"We wedded - nothing is impossible with God"

I joined the Prayer Academy in February 2010 – yeah it seems like a long time but
hey – Gods time is the best! I have done all the Golden Journey Levels, I have done
up to the Diamond edition level of prayer, I joined and did the singles marathon, i
also did the 1000 prayers for singles! Did i give up after I saw no answer? No i
didn’t, i kept soldiering on because I believe our God is faithfully.

I joined this site when i was beaten black and blue – no proper job that matched
my qualification, no relationship, no man to look at me as a worth wife. I had faced
disappointment after disappointment but but finally God gave me a husband and we
wedded on the 9th of April at a beautiful ceremony which has left everyone awed!
Our God is good and so faithful! - Eagle Dee

"Mine was a double portion"

Join me in praising Jehovah. In 2014 I participated in singles prayers. This year I
got a double portion of blessings. I say double because I was converted from
contract to permanent and in May this year I wedded my husband. I shout
hallelujah to the most highest in Jesus name --- Rita

"Delivered from a very long and wasted relationship

I have been reading your mails for sometime now and I thank God for how far He
has brought me. By the grace of God I’ve been able to get married to my childhood
fiancée. The good Lord delivered me from a very long n wasted relationship n
joined me together with the bone of my bones n flesh of my flesh. The devil stood
up against this divine marriage, but the God of Elisha intervene at the eleventh
hour. Praise the Lord. - Nana, Italy

"2016 was an incredible year of triumph for my family"

2016 has been an incredible year of triumph for my family and me. At the end of
2015 and into the beginning of the year, both of my children were out of college for
lack of funds, and both US visa were cancelled. In December my son and I stormed

Page 10 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

the gates as I introduced him to the prayers from the Prayer Academy. By January
he had gotten his bill for $11,000.00 cleared off and got a new visa, and a USD
7,500.00 came by scholarship.

We continued praying for his twin sister who had a outstanding bill of USD
$11,000.00, I was able to save only 6,000.00, but we kept praying. On April 30th, I
got a check delivered to my office for $5,000.00 on a debt that was 10 years old,
this allowed me pay off the bill, get her transcript released, and in July got a her
visa to attend school in Canada. My family is praising God and thanking Jesus,
every challenge we had this year, God has help us overcome. - Alicia P

"Surprised my friends and shocked my enemies"

Jehovah suprised my friends and shocked my enemies when I got a new
international job of my dreams. I went up 2 ranks from my former position, and
doubled my salary. A job I was not even qualified for but here I am... soooo loving
this job and its remunerations. Before now people used to see me as just an
assistant, paper pusher and nothing more. Now they are asking me to get them a
job. Surely our good God wipes our tears, lifts our heads and anoints us to do the
impossible. Everyday the Holy Spirit is teaching me how to do this job and all is
going on awesomely. Is there another word for great joy? - Eagle MG

"If God did it for them, He will do it for me"

I didn’t know how to pray aggressively until my immediate boss introduced me to
this website where I was inspired by other people’s testimonies. I said to myself, if
God has done for them surely He will address my issues. My contract expired May
2015 and I was told verbally that I will continue. Surprisingly it came to an end. In
December 2015 I came to know about this site and started claiming my job back
and indeed He is the God of all flesh. June 2016 I was hired back.

I got into a relationship on 29 August and got married 29 October just within 2
months. Praise the LORD - Chipo

"All the people were shocked, they never thought I could make it"
I have been believing God to become a leader in my country since 2006. For the 10
years I have been storming the gate together with other believers praying as
directed. And my God answered my prayer this year on the 18th February 2016
when I was elected as a Member of Parliament representing my area in the National
Parliament at the first time of contesting. May God’s name be praised. All people
were shocked, they never thought I could make it because I competed with very
rich people and the incumbent I removed was using a lot of witchcraft, threatened
to kill me but the Lord Jesus Christ made me victorious despite all the challenges I

Page 11 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

went through. Three days to elections I prayed the prayer points for success in any
competition and my God did not disappoint. - Eagle F

International Scholarships Galore …

I bless the name of the Lord for teaching his people to pray for themselves. I
applied for a training which is sponsored by the Indian government. I was called for
an interview and normally a reply is sent to people who were qualified at in two
weeks, but mine took more than a month. So during that period I started praying
the November 7 Furious Prayers for November. I prayed: 'covenant keeping God of
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the places where they have rejected me, cause them
to call me back and to fall over themselves to help in Jesus name.' And to God be
the glory I was sent an acceptance letter direct from India not even from the
mission in my country. Right now I am in India sending to you this testimony to the
glory of GOD. - Lydia

***

Glory to God. I am from Kenya and a beneficiary of the China scholarship. We share
the same testimony mine was through the government of Kenya for goverment
officials. As for me I was not an employee and every criteria was working against
me like age, work experience, etc. but after praying the targeted prayers God
answered me and now am in China doing my PhD. People think I had someone
pushing for me but no, my Godfather is our Lord Jesus Christ. Glory be to God -
Juniter, China

"She didn't know I was praying for her -- for over a month!"

A friend who shared with me a situation involving her family and the immigration
department,where the officer was very hostile,and insisted that she must leave the
country because she is a foreigner. They held her passport, and gave her a deadline
to leave as soon as the baby’s passport was issued. She has a two month old baby,
and if she leaves it would lead to the family being separated. Righteous indignation
encouraged me to take up the battle. I prayed, 'Oh God in the places where her file
has been rejected, let them call her back and fall over themselves to help her”

She didn’t know that I was praying that kind of prayer for just over one month. Last
week she messaged me to say that the Immigration department has called her
back and returned her passport. When she went they gave her an extension and
said next year she must return for another extension. Both she and her husband
are foreigners, but God intervened. Thank God he answers prayer. - Peggy

Praise the LORD.

So how about the others?

How did the rest of the eagles REALLY fare?

Exactly How They Prayed…

And the Answers They Received

No Sickle Cell Found!

From Twice Positive to Negative

I was introduced to the Prayer Cookbook about 5 years back, but never
really got to open the prayers though I tried going to prayer sessions.
Down the line, I lost my 6 year old son to sickle cell, and that was a big
blow. To cut a long story short, I lost some of my faith, but still led a
prayerful life.

God blessed us with another son 2 years ago, and my greatest fear
was, I hope, he doesn’t have sickle cell. He was a sickly child right from
birth, and I was so scared to go for the test. Later on, I convinced
myself that God was going to show me wonders through this child and
indeed HE DID!!

I was later reintroduced to the site in October 2015, and this time I was
down and wondering why my life doesn’t seem to prosper. I had a job I
didn’t enjoy doing anymore, and to sum it up that pays peanuts. So the
message was, struggling to get a job?” and it immediately lifted my
spirits up. I started following the site, subscribed and I can say it has
since changed my prayer life. I was tormented by dreams, but I learnt
to pray for them and have some peace of mind.

Page 13 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

I had one very important wish. God show me the miracle of healing for
my son. So I went about having my son tested of sickle cell. And did it
two times and on both times, the test came back positive. And I cried
out to God. Since October I had been praying for his miracle and when
I read all the testimonies I wondered if they were really true, or
fabricated.

Before storming the 2016 gates, we had left some blood samples at the
hospital for further tests. The doctor said he wanted a specialist to look
at his blood because she was not convinced the boy had sickle cell. On
the 8th day of the fast 8th January 2016, we went back to the hospital
for results, and the tests said NO SICKLE CELLS FOUND.

The specialist wondered what the lab technicians saw in the blood
previously. But I knew that my God was at work. God is good all the
time. Now I can be among the people to publish testimonies imagine
that!!!!!

"Are You Sure that

Surgery Was Not Done?"

Through these same bullets my nephew now 18 years who has

suffered from a CSF leak from the age of 10 years is now completely
healed in Jesus name. In August 2015 doctors recommended surgery
to seal the skull where CSF was leaking through. The surgery was
scheduled for November since we could not meet the cost in August.

I went down on my knees every midnight hour, took the Esther fast and
pleaded with God to heal my nephew. In November we went for an MRI
so as to give the surgeon a final report before the surgery. We had
raised enough money through friends by then.

Page 14 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

The radiologist could not believe his eyes. “Has surgery been done?”.
He asked. We said surgery would be done after the MRI. “Are you sure
that surgery was not done and that this MRI was not to confirm if the
surgery was successful?” He asked.

We said surgery is yet to be done. What he said surprised me. He

said.”Then you must be praying and worshipping a very powerful God,
the God of Abraham, Moses, Jacob, Elijah, Joseph, Mary and Baby
Jesus, because there is no more CSF leak, the nasap cavity is clear,
and the crack is completely sealed.”

I could not believe him. I was overwhelmed by joy. We took the report
to the surgeon who gave my nephew a clean bill of health. We sought
three opinions from different radiologists and surgeons and the report
was the same. My nephew was healed. He was healed without surgery
as recommended by doctors..Praise be to God.

Cancer Was Nowhere

To Be Found!

At the beginning of this year, I requested eagles to intercede for a

friend who the doctor decided to cut her breasts because of cancer.

After we did the 27 midnight for storming gates of 2016 with her, she
went on her test before her operation in February 2016, the doctor
could not find the tumors in her breast anymore. They sent her for
second screen by a different doctor. Cancer was nowhere to be found.

But the Dr said for them to be on the safe side, let them go ahead
and cut her breasts. after the operation, they send them to the lab to
test for cancer, result was zero. She now finished the Prayer Academy
and she is prayer warrior now.

Tested Negative This Week,

After Living With HIV For 8 Years

God is so good and ever faithful. Last month I lost my brother to HIV.
My sister who comes after him had also been tested for HIV way before
him but I’d always pray for her.

I started the midnight prayers for my sister who has lived with HIV for 8
years now. She tested negative just this week. I will worship the Lord
and shout his fame.

3 Job Offers in 7 Days

I was introduced to this site by a colleague at work in April 2016

just one month before my contract was ending. I have been using the
monthly prayer bullets and my life has changed for the better.

Actually I believe I now understand the term, 'God has smiled on me.'
In September, 2016 I got 3 job offers in 7 days. And God directed
me to pick the best one, I am working in a managerial position in
our department. More so, I used to struggle with lust but I am now
free. I thank God for teaching me how to pray and crave for his
holy word through this site.

I Want to Win More Souls!

Thank you for sharing some of our testimonies with others, because of
that, I've had people calling to ask me "is this you.." And that alone has
given me the opportunity to share my testimonies and encourage
others, even those that thought "these prayers do not work" now have
a different opinion and some have even joined the PA. I really love
what the Lord is doing.

My prayer has always been "Lord, let others see your glory through
me, I declare that my testimony shall shock my enemies and surprise
my family and friends" He is doing it.. Before I leave the house every
morning, I ask God to give me at least 1 person that I can share the
Word with and He does it, sometimes without me noticing it.

This really humbles me and it makes me want to do more for our Lord
and win more souls.

Long-Gone Husband Back -

After Just 3 Days of Prayers

Praise Jesus. A friend told me about her friend whose marriage

was on the rocks. The husband had left for another woman promising
to marry the second wife & finish the house they were building for
this second woman.

He stopped supporting the family let alone paying fees for their
2 children. If he came home he would just come to abuse & fight.
I sent her the half-year report which had 21 days marathon prayers.
As if she was only waiting for the prayer she started immediately.

3 days of the prayer her long-gone husband came back,

paid school fees, bought her clothes and household necessities.

This woman is seventh day adventist. She is in shock by the quick

response from God & amazed at her husband. The man is now
completing the house for her & by end of this week she will be in her
own home, no more rent.

"Sickness, I command You

Out of My Body By Fire!"

Since I started engaging in your prayer program using the FIRE

BULLETS, things started happening to me. In Feb 2015 after prayer in
went to bed, and I saw a strange black person leaving my body. (My
prayer point was spirit of disease & infirmity I command you out of my
body by fire & blood of Jesus).

I had a strange pain in my right side, after July 2015 prayer bullets,
something dropped out of my body where the pain was. My skin
dramatically begin to change due to midnight prayers, its much lighter

Dream Victory -
Almost Died In Her Sleep

Two three nights back I almost died in my sleep! I had a sleepless night
till at around 4am I managed to dose off abit. So as I sleept this strange
woman came at a terrible speed and pulled out my soul together with
my body and in the dream I was completely gone,could feel it! I started
thinking of where my body will be laid and very fast I said, I’m not
gonna let this happen to me so I started praying and saying repeatedly,
” In the name of Jesus I recover my soul…In the name of Jesus, I
recover…”

I must have said this over ten times then slowly my soul was
indeed restored! I woke up and couldn’t believe I was coming from a
dream coz it had sounded so real! when I woke up I thought about the
fact that if God had not given me the grace to recall the power in the
name of Jesus,how would i have recovered my soul! Praise the Lord.

Re-Married At 50,
After 10 Years of Widowhood

I used to run after the so called 'men & women of God' in my country,
flying from the Middle East to attend one conference or the other, but
there was no success in my life, instead the devil was beating me black
and blue.
Since I joined Prayer Academy in 2013 my life started taking divine
shape.

When I got a marriage proposal from a widower I couldn't act on it

because I was scared this might be a scam. The man kept calling and
following up, I told him I needed to deal with some spiritual matters
before I could get serious with any relationship. I have been widowed
for the past ten years.

It was my 50th birthday a few weeks ago, the man has constantly been
in touch with my children, planning for me to spend my 50th with my
children ( all of them in the USA studying). I walked into a surprise 50th
birthday celebration with a few of my close friends and relatives around
Houston. With my consent, we exchanged marriage vows and marriage
blessings followed.

I never thought of myself getting married again to a man that is so God-

fearing and caring. He bought me a brand new car for my birthday, and
keeps reassuring me that he is treating me as God directs. I never
knew there are still 'real men' out there. Praise the LORD.

"I Made All Sorts of

Excuses And Gave Up"

My testimony took me about 1 year 5 months. I have been running

away from God, procrastinating, wanting an easy way out, but I
realised a warfare is a warfare and there are not 2 ways about it.

I joined the PA in January 2016 and 3 months into the program I wrote
to you and you asked me to go back to the foundational prayers in
Prayer Cookbook. I did but I didn't do a good job on the prayers and
you told me to go back and redo. That's when I gave it up and gave all
sort of excuses.

But today I come to testify that the Lord never gives up on us, like the
prodigal son my Lord kept on waiting until I came back home, which I
did on 26th October 2016. I made the decision to do the prayers as you
had instructed. I was determined, filled with holy anger to change my
life.

Glory to God, 5 days into the prayers and fasting I got a job in another
country, aaah this God is good and powerful wooo. I give all glory and
honour to him. I have already started on my new job and I am loving it.

Sounds Like It Was Ripped

Straight Out of A Storybook

My story will sound like it was ripped straight out of a storybook. I will
make the story short and get straight to the point. I didn’t know that I
was pregnant for the entire pregnancy nothing in my body changed, no
signs of pregnancy showed up and on the 08/09/2016 I felt like I was
very constipated lo and behold I gave birth at home to a baby girl.

When we went to the hospital they told me that my baby’s leg was
bent and that she will be disabled but the devil is a liar my baby’s leg is
perfect she is healthy and growing up very fast. I thank God for the
precious gift that He's blessed me with. My family call her the miracle
baby which she is indeed. God is truly Great! Glory to God and praise
his Holy Name… Thank you Lord for your love and Grace. God bless

"I Refuse Miscarriage!"

I usually just read the testimonies but I have to testify too. Last
year in September 2015 I miscarried and it was so devastating to
me and my husband. I joined the Prayer Academy in November
2015 then fell pregnant again. A few weeks into my pregnancy I
started spotting again like i did the time I miscarried. My 1st
thought was oh no, not again! Then I remembered God’s Word
where different women were barren but ended up having children
also in Isaiah 54. I stood on that and believed that I will not
miscarry again but carry the pregnancy to term. I refused another
miscarriage.

Went to the doctor who scanned and said that the baby was alive
but the placenta was detached in some places which is why I was
bleeding. So she prescribed meds and bed rest, I continued to pray
and trust God. A week later the bleeding stopped, after 2 weeks the
placenta had reattached everything was looking fine. Fastforward,
in September 2016 I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. All glory to
God. I’m so grateful for His Word...

Spiritual Ears Opened

Your website has tremendously changed my life, family and everything

around me. When you sent me the ebook ” PASSION PRAYER OF
JESUS CHRIST” I read and used the prayer bullets,

‘O Lord open my spiritual ear in the name of Jesus.'

I repeated this several times. Then I felt like sleeping. This was in the
afternoon. When I went to bed, I dozed off immediately. Then all of a
sudden I felt a hand removing something from my ear. It wasn’t easy
for it to get out of my ear. It had tightly sealed my ear. Hardly had it left
my ears when it made a sound as opening a soda bottle - the pop
sound.

After that I woke up and started hearing things well. Before that I
couldn’t hear things clearly especially the preachings in the church.
Last Sunday when I went to church I was able to hear clearly what the
pastor was preaching. - Josephine

All glory and honor belongs to the LORD for these testimonies.

He is the One that made all this happen.

And He is about to do it again.

Every year for the past 12 years, at about this time...

… before the New Year comes around the corner, bristling with spiritual pitfalls, and
dangerous shifts that can eat most people alive...

The LORD releases a specific Blueprint for victory and success for the entire year ...
to His prayer eagles who have "hearing ears" in the spirit.

We receive instructions on how to enter the "Gates" of the New Year

Page 24 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

... and navigate our way to breakthroughs and testimonies in spite of the obstacles that
conspire to murder everyone else's hopes and dreams.

The 2017 Blueprint is entitled: Gates of Fire

What’s the Prophetic

Outlook for 2017?

We’ll start off with 2 prophetic scriptures.

Here’s the first one:

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they
journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelled
there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly.
And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.

And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach to heaven;
and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the face of the whole earth.
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this
they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have
imagined to do.

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand
one another's speech. So the LORD scattered them abroad from there on the face of all
the earth: and they left off to build the city.

Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the
language of all the earth: and from there did the LORD scatter them abroad on the face
of all the earth. – Gen 11:1-9

In the realm of the spirit …

Two things are going on at frenetic pace as you read this.

The first is a globe-spanning evil enterprise, whose origin we just read about in the
passage above.
Page 25 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

In a blatant opposition to the LORD’s commandment given to them in Genesis 1:28,

the inhabitants of the ancient world decided to strike out in the opposite direction.

Instead of heeding the divine call to go out, subdue the earth and exercise dominion,
they banded together, encouraged and stirred up one another to build that infamous
tower, in a vain attempt to avoid being dispersed.

This was not just a titanic attempt to scale the heavens and to make a name for
themselves. Using the best technology of the day, this whole project seemed
conceived and executed as a direct affront to God.

By the way, you hear of prominent technology leaders today bragging about how they
want to go to Mars and set up some type of living community out there.

Then, with more braggadocio they threaten to deploy an army of robots to take over
the jobs than human beings are doing here… while reducing almost everyone to
zombies.

On the surface of it, this sounds like exciting technological progress.

But underneath, implicit in their arrogant enterprise, is not so much a desire to use
their vast resources to help solve any of humanity’s most pressing problems.

No.

Their real purpose remains the same as it ever was: to look for every way possible
to disprove, even discredit, the truth that we know about the Living God as the sole
creator and controller of the universe…

… who has assigned us humans an important role to play right here on earth.

It should therefore come as no surprise that some of these same people are also
doubling as the chief promoters of some of the worst form of sexual perversions
today…

… the likes of which have not been seen since the demise of the Roman Empire
centuries ago.

In all fronts, they are set on a collision course with the Almighty.

But the LORD has a way of defeating the evil enterprise.

In ancient times, 3 things happened to the evil builders.

Page 26 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

1. Their language was confounded, i.e. confused.

God has power over the minds and tongues of
those striving against a divine sentence.
2. Their building project came to a screeching halt.
3. The builders were scattered.

What does that have to do with you in this 21st century?

Babel represents the sick foundation of idolatry (both ancient and modern) and all the
wickedness that flows from it.

The enemy of all mankind has been busily constructing, reinforcing and repackaging
ancient pagan practices into seductive new-age forms…

… and firing them like arrows into the hearts and minds of people, including believers
everywhere.

With an ungodly crew of invisible demonic entities and their human helpers, their
work is now reaching an advanced stage in the lives of many.

Today, no thanks to the Internet and social media, you find many believers wallowing
in the filth of pornography without even a pang of conscience.

Others would do anything for money. For some, their god is their belly (hint: such
people find it almost impossible to fast).

Plus…

It is getting more and more difficult to tell the difference between a believer and an
unbeliever, going by the way they talk, dress and act.

When we received salvation, the power of the Lord to save, to heal and to deliver
became available to us. In great measure.

But lured by ignorance or feel-good gospel into a false sense of security, many
believers simply stopped growing.

They were told that once saved, you’re always saved. Nothing more to do.

As a result, many became careless, and those things they were delivered from began
to creep back into their lives.

Page 27 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

Look at this verse:

Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it
was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly
contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Jude 1:3

In some cases, many have been unwittingly helping to rebuild the Tower of Babel in
their lives.

Or else…

Why would a Christian single even consider living in the same room and sleeping on
the same bed with someone (of the opposite sex) that they are not married to?

Some people do know how to court disaster.

We read this:

For if I build again the things which I destroyed,

I make myself a transgressor. – Gal. 2:18

Here Comes A Prophetic

Warning For 2017

The LORD is about to blast and bring to naught all the devices and designs of
modern-day builders of Babel.

He has various means, and effective ones, to battle and defeat the projects of those
who set themselves against Him.

Job 9 v 4 says this about the LORD:

He is wise in heart, and mighty in strength:

who has hardened himself against him, and has prospered?

In fact, the hand of the LORD has gone out against them.
Page 28 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

This year we must all get away from that which we see God fight against.

Get out of the blast zone!

For, behold, the day comes, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yes, and all
that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that comes shall burn them up, said the
LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. Mal 4:1

I pray you take this prophetic warning seriously.

You will spare yourself from most of the troubles waiting to trip up the rest of
humanity this year.

Onwards… to the next scripture.

One day the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came
with them. The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?”

Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on
it.”

Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on
earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.”

“Does Job fear God for nothing?” Satan replied. “Have you not put a hedge around him
and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that
his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But now stretch out your hand and
strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.”

The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the
man himself do not lay a finger.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.

One day when Job’s sons and daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest
brother’s house, a messenger came to Job and said, “The oxen were plowing and the
donkeys were grazing nearby, and the Sabeans attacked and made off with them. They
put the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”

Page 29 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The fire of God fell from
the heavens and burned up the sheep and the servants, and I am the only one who has
escaped to tell you!”

While he was still speaking, another messenger came and said, “The Chaldeans formed
three raiding parties and swept down on your camels and made off with them. They put
the servants to the sword, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell you!”

While he was still speaking, yet another messenger came and said, “Your sons and
daughters were feasting and drinking wine at the oldest brother’s house, when suddenly a
mighty wind swept in from the desert and struck the four corners of the house. It
collapsed on them and they are dead, and I am the only one who has escaped to tell
you!”

At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in
worship. – Job 1: 6-20

Hmmm. The fire of God fell from heaven.

Really?

Do we now know what happened here?

Yet there is a perspective I want you to consider today.

When you follow the narrative, you will realize that it is almost as if someone
‘flipped’ a switch in the spirit realm … against Job and his family.

One day, everything was going fine and dandy.

Next day, their whole world turned upside down.

Without so much as a warning, the man Job was pushed into the gates of fire.

If you were somehow in a position to observe him close up… maybe as one of his
neighbors, or even as someone who lived in the same community or worshipped at the
same church…

… you would have been left scratching your head in puzzlement.

How could this happen to such a godly man?

Page 30 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

OR…

As many modern-day intellectuals in the secular world (and even in the church) would
ask:

How could a loving God allow such calamity to befall anyone?

(As an exercise, google the words ‘why does God allow…’ and see what comes up.)

I just googled and what do I get?

About 4,060,000 results (0.46 seconds)

Without spiritual understanding, so many are stumbling at that question.

Remember I just said it’s as if someone FLIPPED A SWITCH?

As a matter of fact, someone did.

Stealthily. Behind the scenes. Away from human eyes.

The gates of fire were opened.

The fire of affliction has been a reality throughout human history since the fall of
Adam in the garden.

So many people reading this are even now in the fiery furnace – satanically
orchestrated, to be sure – through no fault of their own.

Like Job.

Like the 3 Hebrew children in Daniel chapter 3.

But here’s the good news…

The LORD is about to open the gates … for you to walk out of the fire.

Hear that again:

You are about to walk out of the fire.

Page 31 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

After all is said and done, the unspeakable horrors that Job went through became the
training ground that helped launch him like a rocket into a higher realm of power,
blessings and dominion.

Not to mention that it burnished his credentials as one of the finest prayer eagles to
ever walk the earth.

How about the 3 Hebrew children?

Once they walked out of the gates of fire, they stepped right into shocking divine
promotion.

Their great deliverance sparked a national spiritual revival, even as the bedazzled king
hastily set forth a new decree:

Then Nebuchadnezzar said, “Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and

Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him
and defied the king’s command and were willing to give up their lives rather than
serve or worship any god except their own God. Therefore I decree that the people
of any nation or language who say anything against the God of Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego be cut into pieces and their houses be turned into piles of rubble, for
no other god can save in this way.” – Dan 3:28 - 29

Please close your eyes and take this prayer with a holy shout:

‘My problems shall become my promotion in the name of Jesus.’

What is the prophetic equivalent of walking out of the gates of fire today?

If you take these lessons to heart, the LORD is about to use the 14-day prayers
starting December 30 to open the gates of fire…

… for you to step through victoriously to dominion and divine promotion in 2017.

Page 32 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

There’s Something Else …

When men built their Babel, the LORD released confusion into their midst.

He did not want this thing built.

But today there is something the LORD wants you to build.

And here it is:

But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in
the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus
Christ to bring you to eternal life.

Be merciful to those who doubt; save others by snatching them from the fire; to others
show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh. – Jude
20-23

Notice some important key phrases here (paraphrased):

- Build yourself up in your faith

- Pray in the Spirit
- Keep yourself under the umbrella of God’s mercy
- Then help to snatch others from the fire

On the last point…

Many years ago, I was deep in the fires of affliction.

Those were dark, dark days … with no sign of relief.

I would look at this scripture and wonder:

We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us
any that knows how long. – Psalm 74:9

Page 33 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

When the LORD eventually delivered me, He gave me this mandate to help snatch
others out of the fire.

That’s when it dawned on me…

You can only be truly effective at snatching others from the fire when you yourself
have passed through the fire.

No wonder the Bible says:

My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the
trying of your faith works patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be
perfect and entire, wanting nothing. – James 1:4

As you step through the gates of fire…

Lives will be transformed.

Situations will be changed.

You will be catapulted to the realm of signs and wonders all through this year.

How To Be An Overcomer
With This Year’s Prayers

As we approach the start of the program on December 30, 2016, there are 2 simple, but
VERY crucial, steps you must take, if you really want to see the finger of God manifest
speedily on your behalf:

Simple Step #1:

Make Doubly Sure JESUS
Is In the Driver’s Seat of Your Boat

"Not by works of righteousness which we have done,

but according to his mercy he saved us..." - Titus 3:5

No matter how far you may have strayed from the LORD this year, He wants you
back NOW.

He is able and willing to forgive your sins, cleanse you and give you a fresh new
start in 2017... if only you'd go on your knees and cry out for His mercy NOW.

YES, it is up to you to open the door of your heart for Him to come in and do a
work of transformation in your life right now.

Please take a moment to do this, if you need to. … before you even think of going
further.

Simple Step #2:

All Secret Sins Must Go
(And I Do Mean ALL)

Page 35 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

Realize that God sees your heart even now as you read this. He knows what you
do in secret. Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for your sins, mine… and that of the
whole world.

Of course this might sound like foolishness to the people of the world (in the
secular world I meet “sophisticated” people all the time who say so).

But you know the Bible says:

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing,
but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. – 1 Cor.1:18

Since you have read up to this point, I believe you are NOT one of those who are
perishing. So, let me congratulate you for that…

About our Lord Jesus Christ, we are assured this:

Who His own self bare our sins

in His own body on the tree ... - 1 Peter 2:24

Unto him that loved us, and washed us

from our sins in his own blood - Rev. 1:5

If you are new to this…

I must alert you that if you follow these 2 simple steps above with all sincerity …
before even firing the opening shots, you may not be able to handle the flood of peace
and joy that will invade your heart ...

… not to mention the testimonies to follow.

Last year by this time I challenged those who went through these simple steps
diligently to get ready for an overflow of breakthroughs in their lives.

They were NOT disappointed.

Page 36 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

Before we got to DAY 4 of the program, our testimony inbox was filling up so
fast we had to redirect people to go to the blog to post their testimonies under the
COMMENT section with their own hands!

Praise the LORD who delights in answering the prayers of His people.

Very Important:
The Proper Way to Break a Fast
(Suggestion only – not medical advice !)

You should not eat heavy meals at least 2 days before a long fast. Rather you
should take MORE fruits and drink a lot of water.

When you break your fast, you should never break with solid food. You
must break slowly. DO not take any cold water or drinks. Warm water is preferable.
Eat fruits such as oranges, paw-paw, etc. for a while and drink a lot of water before
attempting to eat any solid food.

When you have been on a long fast, you will need some days to slowly break.
For instance, if you fasted for 7 days, you’ll need another 3 days to slowly break –
meaning in the following 3 days you should be on a diet of fruits and water, before
introducing any heavy food.

This is because the end of a long fast is the most delicate time of a fast. For
those who did not conquer their appetite during the fast, there is a danger that they
might overeat right after the fast, thereby causing severe problems for themselves.

In the event of that happening, quickly stop eating and begin another fast
without food and water for at least 2 days and you should be alright.

Let me repeat this: Please NOTE that this is not a medical prescription.
Always seek the advice of your doctor before taking any action that could affect your
health. What I have just said here should NOT be taken as medical advice.

Now to the prayers…

All the prayers should be prayed AT THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. You should also find
time during the day to continue with the prayers.

Page 39 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

If, however, because of your work schedule, you are not able to pray at the midnight
hour, then you should pray VERY early in the morning before 6:00 AM.

No excuses please.

If you do this diligently, you will surely experience the visitation of the LORD,
the One who ordained this program.

Finally it is time to review our yearly message to prepare us for the gate of
the New Year...

--> Start of Review

For those who are here for the first time…

here’s a quick review from previous years

There are 3 fundamental principles that you need to arm yourself with, as
we prepare to crossover into the New Year.

Here’s the VERY first one. And you need to apply it diligently at
the “gate” i.e. midnight as Dec 31, 2016 transitions into Jan 1, 2017.

(The rest I will continue to share step by step in the Prayer Academy and
the SAPPHIRE program).

If you're ready, let's go...

We'll open this section with a short prayer. Please just close your eyes
where you are now and take this singular prayer point with fire in your
spirit:

"O LORD, open my spiritual understanding today

in the name of Jesus. Amen."

Page 40 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

We’ll take off by looking at the popular story of the ten virgins. In
Matthew 25:1-10 we read:

"Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins,

which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:
But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at
midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye
out to meet him.

Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the
foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for
us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that
were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut."

This is a familiar story.

Two phrases are of particular interest to us here:

(i) At midnight there was a cry made...

(ii) And the door was shut...

Here is Key #1...

Midnight is the time when "doors" are shut against people in the spirit.

Key #2…

It is also a time when satanic cries are made against people by the
evil powers operating along the bloodlines of their families.

Page 41 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

Please hold these thoughts while we back up to Psalm 24:7-10:

"Lift up your head, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting

doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD
mighty in battle.

Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting

doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of

glory."

Again we see the word “doors” but this time, at the appearance of a
Superior, Sovereign Power...

… Instead of being shut, the door (and gates) are

being commanded to “open.”

Putting what we’ve read so far together, we arrive at the

inescapable conclusion that doors can be opened and shut in the spiritual
realm.

In many places in the Bible, we see references to doors and gates.

For instance, we find them at the at the entry point to cities (1 Kings
17), temples (Acts 3), prisons (Acts 12), and palaces (Esther 5).

At the gates of the city, important decisions and verdicts were handed
down. Controversies were settled there. Financial transactions were
sealed there.

Honor was bestowed at the gate. Blessings were pronounced at the

gate… and curses were issued as punishment for offences at the gate.In
fact, the gate played such a pivotal role in the life of any community that
in times of war…

Page 42 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

The enemy’s first order of business was to seize control of the gate!

What’s this got to do with the New Year?

You can liken the New Year to a well-fortified city with a strong
gate.

The gate is the entry point into the city.

For the purpose of this conversation...

The door or gate of the New Year is currently shut. It is supposed to

swing open IN THE SPIRIT at 12 midnight on January 1st.

Notice that I used the word, ‘supposed’… that is what should

happen in an ideal situation...

The reality, however, is that for most people, the gate of the New
Year never opens to them spiritually… it remains tightly shut against
them year after year, often without their knowledge!

Why is this so?

The Bible reveals that there are invisible “horsemen setting

themselves in array at the gate” (Isaiah 22:7).

And here's the SECRET:

The entrance or gate to the New Year is the midnight hour between
December 31 and January 1st.

The truth remains that this gate is the point of the hottest spiritual
battle you can think of.

Whoever takes control of that gate in the crucial first few seconds
of the New Year determines what happens throughout the entire year!

What I’m sharing with you is well-understood by the children of

darkness. No wonder our Lord Jesus once said (in Luke 16:8b):

Page 43 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

… for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than
the children of light.

At the critical midnight hour of between December 31st and January

1st the children of this world (darkness) that Jesus is referring to here will
be busy taking off in their evil aircraft and making evil prophetic
pronouncements to renew age-old bondages…

… capture the entire year (and shut the gates of the next 12 months
against ignorant people).

At this exact same time, most modern day believers will be dancing
and partying the night away!

Unknown to them, at this critical hour of midnight when the new

year is being “delivered” (think of a woman in labor), whatever decrees
are issued (good or bad) have the capacity to alter the destiny of an
individual, family or nation.

You remember how many prophecies of greatness that Christians

usually receive at the beginning of every year?

How many of them ever come to pass?

You know why?

At the most critical first few seconds of the New Year, the enemy
gets busy "shutting the gate" and cancelling those prophecies by issuing
ungodly decrees against people, using words anointed with satanic
power!

No wonder:

• Doors of opportunity remained tightly shut throughout the year.

• The heavens refuse to open and pour out the

expected blessings in abundance.

• Divine benefits refused to manifest...

Page 44 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

• Divine helpers were nowhere to be found…

• Most prayers went unanswered... leaving many

believers scratching their heads.

If you keep records of all the wonderful prophecies received every

New Year (like I do) you’ll realize that most of them NEVER come to
pass.

It doesn't matter how many great men or women of God prophesied.

Why?

Because most Christians allow the enemy (either out of ignorance or

sheer laziness) to take control of the GATES when it mattered most…

... at the critical moment of transition… when most people are in

slumber.

You see, in the spiritual realm, just one second’s delay can cost a
person an entire year.

Like the prayer bullets you will see shortly, if you were to pray them
at any other time of the year, you won’t achieve the same results [except
in very few cases which we will discuss at various times during the year
in the Members’ Forum].

Thankfully, the Lord has not left us ignorant about this matter.

12 years ago He gave us a battle plan which has never failed.

If we execute on this plan diligently...

These 90 minutes AT THE GATE can save you 9 months of

frustration, disappointment and sorrow.

A Housekeeping Note

At this point I'm inspired to release the power of the spoken blessing on a VERY special
group of people on this site... they are silent co-laborers with me in the Vineyard.

Here’s one of them:

“Yes, indeed you never asked for any tithe/offering. The Holy Spirit laid it in my spirit to tithe to
your ministry and indeed I obeyed. I've never lacked anything ever since. I've grabbed the
revelation of obedience in financial giving. My husband and I are debt free as I'm writing. This
is one area where God is using me & I'm excited. I give to your ministry because my Father in
heaven instructed me so & I'm happy to please Him.”
– Eagle GW

Such dear people operating in stealth mode help make testimonies like this
happen:

“I Had Already Given Up on Life,

I Wanted To Commit Suicide”

I thank God that I came to know about your site i usually

say it was a real divine connection. I had already given up in
life to a point that i had declared to commit suicide.

I was on my way to work when just happened to sit next to a

lady who was reading your prayer points i got so moved by the
prayers points then she invited me to your site.

Since then i have really seen God i am totally encouraged

and i have come to know that God loves His people and He can
use anything to save you like He did to me.

Every testimony on this site will stand as a memorial before the

Throne of Grace, living PROOF of your faithfulness, forever speaking
favor, mercy and compassion on your behalf.

Even when I never asked, the LORD has spoken to your hearts and
you have obeyed His voice by sending in a portion of your tithes,
offerings and gifts monthly to help keep the sites, forums and blogs
humming with heavenly activity day and night.

LET ME SAY THIS:

I may not know you or what your circumstances are (but the LORD

Here's my prayer for you…

“LORD, Your Word tells us in Mark 9 verse 41:

'For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because

you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his
reward.'

As friends remember and send gifts to one another this season, O

LORD GOD, my Father, according to this Word...

...remember all your precious children who have supported this

ministry throughout 2016 through their gifts, tithes, offerings, volunteer
work, and their prayers.

LORD, I ask that You send them a surprise gift this season. Send them
divine helpers today and let the voice of their offering CONTINUALLY
speak on their behalf all the days of their lives.

In Jesus’ glorious name.

To you our partners, I now pronounce this blessing:

The LORD bless you and keep you. The LORD make His face shine
upon you and be gracious unto you. The LORD lift up His countenance
upon you and establish you in shalom in Jesus' name.

The God of Israel shall trouble the troublers of your Israel in Jesus'
name.

The LORD bless you out of Zion. May HE bless your staff of bread,
and open the windows of heaven and pour forth a thousand-fold increase
in response to your giving in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.

GATES of FIRE
The Prayer Blueprint for Shocking
Breakthroughs Throughout 2017

For reasons of space and time, we can only pray a tiny fraction of these prayers here.

But right after the 14-day prayers at the gate of 2017, we will continue (without any
break) with the follow-up programs I’ve mentioned already.

Please NOTE the following:

1. For those in the current Prayer Academy

You will suspend all the prayers of the Prayer Academy for 14 days starting on Dec 30.
At the end of the program (on January 12, 2017) you will resume with the Prayer
Academy lesson FOR THAT WEEK. Please make a note of the 14 days that you

Page 49 of 52
 WWW.ELISHAGOODMAN.ORG

suspended the lessons. You will go back and pray them at the end of the Post-Marathon
prayers.

2. For those in the Diamond Edition

You will suspend all the prayers of the Diamond Edition for 14 days starting on Dec 30.
At the end of the program (on January 12, 2017) you will resume with the Diamond
Edition lesson that FOR THAT WEEK. After the program, you will NOT go back to pray
those lessons you missed. Rather you will JOIN WHATEVER program is going on in the
24-Hour Forum.

3. For those in the Gold Academy (Marriage Restoration)

You will suspend all the prayers of the Gold Academy for 14 days starting on Dec 30.
At the end of the program (on January 12, 2017) you will resume with the Gold Academy

4. For those already in the Singles Program…

Please watch for an email alert to start the next module. The Forum will not be open to
new members until further notice.

5. For All Others

Please allow me to get

something off my chest

If I were to be your pastor, coach or mentor … you and everyone else would get
at least a taste of being a prayer eagle.

It will taste bitter to most people. And that's fine. No harm, no foul.

But for some... it will be SWEET nectar.

A thrill like nothing else they've ever experienced before.

Seeking to become a true prayer eagle will take you places in 2017 ... and
RELEASE to you things that were previously denied, delayed or diverted to someone
else.

As you may already know, if you want to excel at anything you need some
TRAINING.

Without proper training, you will just be beating the air... ... and wasting YOUR
time.

Please decide to take the time to learn HOW to pray result-oriented prayers in
2017.

It took me 16 long weary years to pray the way I teach here … longer than it
took me to get through school up to the graduate level and beyond ... and I'M STILL
LEARNING.

REMEMBER…

After performing miracles and walking with Jesus day in and day out, the
disciples pleaded:

"Lord, teach us to pray,

just as John taught his disciples."

If you are NOT greater than the disciples who walked, worked and lived with
Jesus, you too should learn to PRAY.

Make that a priority this year. It is never too late to start.

FIRST Prayer Academy for 2017 is just around the corner.

If you have never joined, I can't begin to tell you what you're missing.

Just 3 weeks into the program, and you will understand why some prayers are not
answered...

... so you can AVOID these mistakes.
