Border Sheriff's Posse                        04-01-10         


Dear Posse,

 

RED ALERT 

 

At the town meeting on 03.30.10  in Ft. Hancock, TX, across the Rio Grande from Porvenir, MX, some townspeople said they wished there was an alert system for the border like the one that has been in place since 9/ll.  Sheriff Arvin West spoke up and declared (regarding the border) "We are in red alert."

 

At that instant the Holy Spirit washed over me as I was reminded of a gift I received five years ago - a painting by prophetic artist Jean Shen showing a horse running in the sunset.  Here is what Jean had to say about the picture: 

 

"The painting of the horse running along the shoreline in a red sunset is a call to prophetic intercessors to arise and protect the borders in this pivotal 'red alert' time.  May their 'hoof beats' be heard and their voices rise up in praise of Him, proclaiming the goodness and mercy of the Lord!" 

 

Jean also shared two scriptures verses for the painting.

 

"From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets the name of the Lord is to be praised."  Ps. 113:3

 

"Mercy triumphs over judgment."  James 2:13

 

The picture included this personal note, "Pam, if you start weaving, the Lord will provide the thread!"

 

Though I couldn't know it at the time, my networking with intercessors over the past 6 years has progressed into what is now the Border Sheriff's Posse.

 

Psalm 113:3 was easy to understand from the beginning, but only tonight as I wrote "Mercy triumphs over judgment," did I realize why the Lord gave that verse to Jean.  We are in a time when we, as a nation, deserve judgment.  Thank God His mercy does triumph over judgment!

 

When Sheriff West declared, "We are in red alert," I heard those words echo out into eternity, and I knew it was official.  WE ARE IN RED ALERT!

 

A DEADLY RESURRECTION SUNDAY


Tuesday's town hall meeting in Ft. Hancock was held because of the influx of people coming across the border due to the Sinaloa Cartel posting signs in Porvenir giving people 30 days to leave or they would be killed and their houses burned.  Today, April 1, was the deadline to vacate the town. The cartel is trying to forcefully take over the territory in the Valley of Juarez on the east side of the Mexican state of Chihuahua.  Signs have now gone up in 10 more towns, including Guadalupe and Caseta, stating the people need to be gone by April 4 or be killed.  Why April 4?  The Sinaloa Cartel and the Juarez Cartel, along with their enforcers the Azteca gang, are preparing for a major shoot-out on RESURRECTION SUNDAY.

 

One orphanage in Guadalupe had to evacuate today.  They were able to place 65-75 children in homes and vacate their property. 

 

I spoke with someone from another children's ministry, and they are staying put for now.  They have no place to go, even though they are seeking an evacuation plan.  Many of these ministries are at least partly staffed by U.S. citizens who won't return to the U.S. and abandon the children.   

 

Last night two homes were burned in Porvenir and two in Esperanza.

 

One critical piece of information... even though there are thousands of troops in Juarez, the Mexican military have not been seen in the Valley of Juarez, just east of the city, since these small towns were targeted a few weeks ago.

 

Another place where staging for a major battle is taking place is in Ojinaga, MX, across the Rio Grande from Presidio, TX.  It has been reported people are moving in with large weapons in preparation for a "major uproar."

 

If you have a TX map and look directly southeast of El Paso you can see many of the communities mentioned.  Record numbers of people are showing up at the border crossings asking for asylum.

OFFICER INVOLVED SHOOTING IN LAREDO

                       

Today a Border Patrol agent in Laredo, TX caught a load of drugs (Laredo sits on the border).  When confronted, the smuggler accosted the agent and tried to take his weapon.  During the struggle, the drug smuggler was shot to death.

 

Posse, this is a traumatic situation for any officer, but there is something else that now is always taken into account.  If you are new to the Posse, we closely supported the VERY UNJUSTLY convicted former Border Patrol agents who were grossly abused by our federal government to appease some in MX.  That incident and many more where officers were prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney, Western District of TX for doing their jobs sent a loud and clear message to agents that they better think twice because they might be prosecuted. 


An incident a couple of years ago in AZ clearly points out how these prosecutions affected officers on the border.  When a human smuggler was being stopped, he drove straight at a Border Patrol agent, ran him down and killed him.  There were officers on the scene who hesitated to stop the smuggler by shooting until it was too late to save the officer's life.  There is a bigger picture being painted here, and it has to do with the future of North America.

 

FYI.  You might wonder why a smuggler would take such a risk going for an officer's gun.  Well, if you could ask the man who was kidnapped from his home in broad daylight in Horizon City (a very few miles outside El Paso) a few months ago who was found dead in Juarez a week later with his hands cut off and a finger shoved down his throat because he lost (was caught with) a 670 lb load of marijuana, he would say it was worth his life to not lose the drugs.

 

PRAY

 

Let's cover this Border Patrol agent in prayer and pray he will be quickly cleared of any wrongdoing so he can go back to doing his job. 

 

Please continue to pray for safety for the dear people in MX who are caught in this terrible stronghold, especially those fleeing their homes on threat of death and those who may not have any place to go. 

 

Pray the Lord's light will shine brighter as the darkness continues to fall.

 

Please pray for the many ministries in these very poor communities.

 

Requests from the leader of one of these ministries from Juarez...

 

Pray the angel of death will pass over them and all those to whom they minister.

Pray God's protection for the people.

Pray they will not have to evacuate.

Pray they will remain invisible.

 

RED ALERT

 

I know many of you live so far away from all of this that you've had no idea how serious the border situation is.  THIS IS THE GREATEST THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY THE UNITED STATES IS FACING. 

 

WE NEED YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT ON OUR SOUTHERN BORDER.

 

CAN YOUR HOOF BEATS BE HEARD IN THIS "RED ALERT" TIME AS YOU RIDE TO THE DEFENSE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?

 

SOUND THE ALARM

 

More than a year ago the Lord spoke to me to "Sound the alarm," to call fresh troops to reinforce those who live in the WAR ZONE.  Driving through Hudspeth County, TX and praying for Sheriff Arvin West on New Year's Eve 2008, I was led to continuously play the bugle call, TO THE COLORS (flag), as the sun set over a West Texas mountain.

Never has the call been more urgent than it is at this moment.

 

Join me as we "ride" the borders of the United States in intercession.

ABOUT THE BORDER SHERIFF'S POSSE
LinkAmerica sponsors the Border Sheriff's Posse to "ride" the U.S. borders in intercession and to "pardner" with intercessors around the United States to protect the 26 counties along the US/Mexico border.  It is critical that we take our place on this fence. 

We support ALL law enforcement agencies, pray that illegal activity will be stopped (drugs, human trafficking, etc.) and declare that those who are slipping across our borders to cause harm be exposed and apprehended.

This is not about politics!  This is about the protection of the United States of America.  I was visiting with a prophetic intercessor who did not know about the Border Sheriff's Posse when she pointed her finger and said, "And right now God is pinning badges on hidden intercessors.....like a Sheriff's badge," and, with that, she poked her finger into my shoulder!   
 
Are you being "deputized by 'The Sheriff' to aid in law enforcement?"  Will you join me as we ride with the Lord, our Border Sheriff?  We'll "ride" the fence.  We'll catch rustlers, mend spiritual fences and sing some great trail songs along the way as we worship over our borders.
