Prayer during the 9th hour, 3pm, is highly strategic scripturally and the signs are pointing to this important intervention now. The 9th hour is 3pm, or the 9th hour after sunrise in Hebraic tradition. For explanation click here. The 9th hour is significant scripturally:
- Salvation: It was the hour when Jesus died and the veil was rent in the temple. Mt 27:51.
- Healing: It was the hour when Peter and John performed the first healing after Pentecost. Acts 3:1-10.
- Kingdom advance: It was the hour the angel appeared to Cornelius and said, "Your prayer has been heard, and your alms are remembered in the sight of God," Acts 10:31.
9th Hour Initiative Focus: Salvation, Strength and Security of Israel

“Cornelius!” And when he observed him, he was afraid, and said, “What is it, lord?”
So he said to him, “Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God.
Now send men to Joppa, and send for Simon whose surname is Peter." Acts 10:3-5
