An Appeal to Heaven

The American Revolution was beginning in 1775. The British, the most powerful military in the world, was occupying Boston and problems in the colonies were rising. George Washington and the Continental Army were besieging British held Boston at the time. The British troops were trapped in the city and the only way to receive food and supplies was by sea. Washington wanted to harass and capture as many ships bringing supplies to the troops in Boston as possible, so he formed a small squadron of ships, outfitted at his own expense, for the task. Each schooner was to have a special flag flown from its mast. All boats were to have "An Appeal to Heaven” flags upon them. This flag, also known as "Washington’s cruiser flag.” was a white flag with an evergreen tree in the middle and the words “An Appeal to Heaven" stitched across.

On November 29, 1775, the USS Lee captured the British brigantine Nancy. Captain John Manley was given command of a schooner named the USS Lee, after General Charles Lee. The brigantine Nancy was a massive 250 ton British ship bringing supplies to Boston. Unknown to Captain Manley and the crew of the USS Lee, the ship was carrying tons of ammunition and weapons. The prize was so great that it was said our country would have taken well over a year to produce. Not only was this the greatest capture of the entire Revolution, it also inspired all the founding fathers and the birth of our countries United States Navy as we know it today.

The original schooners bearing the "Appeal to Heaven" flags continued capturing British ships and performing special services for the remainder of the war as our new Navy was being formed. In addition to the schooners, the flag was also flown on floating batteries, river banks, in  towns, battlefields like Bunker Hill, and even places of most importance like our nations capital in Philadelphia.

The Pine Tree, also known as the "Tree of Peace" has been sacred by the Iroquois Indians for over a thousand years in America. At a very troubling time in their history, a peacemaker united six great tribes from the Great Lake areas and established unity.. This great treaty was symbolized by burying their weapons under a pine tree and this tree was to be guarded by a bald eagle at its peak clutching six arrows.

The truth is, our founding fathers and early settlers were very much influenced by the Iroquois Indians. Just around the time of the signing of The Declaration, The Iroquois attended a Continental Congress meeting in Philadelphia. This meeting was one of the many were the Indians would inspire our founders to unite with them in their ways of living, laws, and style of government. It was just after this that the "Tree of Peace" became known as our new "Liberty Tree" and it would show itself on flags of all kinds, especially those in the fight for our freedom.

The phrase “An Appeal to Heaven “ comes from John Locke from England.  Locke was one of the great philosophers of his time. He, like other English Philosophers, was also influenced by the Iroquois in America. "An Appeal to Heaven" comes from his studies on “Natural Laws", a system of right or justice common to all humankind and derived from nature rather than from the rules of society and the only judge is that of our Creator. Thomas Jefferson penned it well in our Declaration of Independence:

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

Let's us boldly make our Appeal To Heaven in this hour.

5775

Here are a few the words for the Year 5775 Ayin-Hei
 

Robert Heidler – “The Hebrew letter Ayin is a picture of an eye. This is a year to see again; God wants to restore blind eyes. God wants to increase our ability to see! This is the year to see again! We call forth regenerative miracles. The Hebrew letter Hei is a picture of a window. The letter Hei represents the sound of the wind blowing through the lattice. This is going to be a year of roaring, encircling wind. This is a year to abide under the shadow of His wing. Psalm 91 is key this year. Live in the eye of the storm.”

Chuck D. Pierce – “There is a divine unlocking in you that will cause God to be seen like never before. Heaven is opening up in a different way. There will be a shifting of authority structures in the earth. The whirlwind is going to unlock the seed to be sown for the future. At the bottom of the whirlwind are seeds and jewels. I am going to show you and reposition you with seeds for the future. I am creating a new book of war! Let me unlock the seeds within you to sow seeds in famine.”

Paul Keith Davis – “It is God’s heart that the bride will be given access to the treasury room of heaven. We are entering a seven-year season of divine access to the heart of God. I saw a diamond heart and a blue light hitting the heart and spreading in seven colors horizontally. We are entering a season of time when nothing will be held back, but the nature, character, and treasures of Christ will be revealed through the bride of Christ.”

Dutch Sheets – “Enlarge the place of your tent. No more delay! Personal delay, Generational delay, Historical delay!  No more delay! We decree the Lord is bathing your bloodline with blood-covered mercy, to awaken and live in the fullness of original intent planned for you and yours from the foundation of the world. Shalom. Nothing missing, nothing lacking, nothing broken!
