IMPORTANT NOTE BY STEVE SHULTZ, THE ELIJAH LIST:
------------------------------------------------

It is common for people to write and ask, "Why didn't the prophets see 'this' coming?" Below is an example where the Lord specifically showed Chuck Pierce 23 terrorists attempting to simultaneously attack the U.S. While we cannot prove that these are the same 23 that Chuck saw in his vision, it serves as an excellent example of how a prophet or "seer" sees specifics from the Lord, and it also shows the direct and immediate results when the Body of Christ is called to prayer over what a prophet sees.

WORD OF KNOWLEDGE BY CHUCK PIERCE CONFIRMED BY NEWS REPORT
-----------------------------------------------------------

By Chuck Pierce:

June 5, 2002

I am forwarding a recent Reuters news release on terrorists in America. Only last week I received a word of knowledge concerning the number 23. I saw 23 consecutive attacks that would physically, spiritually, and emotionally devastate our nation. You already received this prayer focus.

Now, the Justice Department has identified 23 people with terrorist ties in our nation. Please pray that each one of these people are found, and that any strategy would be exposed and removed from this land.

23 PEOPLE IN U.S. HAVE 'TERRORISM TIES'

----------------------------------------

Tue Jun 4, 7:02 PM ET

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Justice Department (news - web sites) has identified 23 people in the United States who have various levels of "terrorist ties" and at least one with links to Osama bin Laden's (news - web sites) al Qaeda group, U.S. officials said on Tuesday.

"The (Foreign) Terrorist Tracking Task Force has identified, acknowledged and handled 23 individuals in this country that have different levels of terrorist ties," a Justice Department official said.

-------------------------

ONE HAS TIES TO AL QAEDA

-------------------------

At least one has ties to al Qaeda, the organization linked to the deadly Sept. 11 attacks on America.

The official did not know what level of ties that individual had to al Qaeda, and did not know what other organizations the other 22 were connected to.

"Their identities and whereabouts have been given to the appropriate Joint Terrorist Task Forces around the country," the official said.

As part of an effort to prevent another attack on the United States, Joint Terrorist Task Forces have been set up in FBI (news - web sites) field offices around the country to investigate people accused of having connections to extremist groups.

The Justice Department announcement that 23 people have been identified by the task forces comes as the FBI and CIA (news - web sites) defend themselves against allegations they did not do enough to prevent the Sept. 11 attacks, or make information about possible threats available to the public.
