The Call

On Friday, I will be traveling to Sacramento for The Call.  I have set aside this time to join with hundreds of thousands of passionate believers in a time of consecration as we rend our hearts before the living God, in a place of united fasting and prayer as we seek God's face and pray for the heart of our nation to turn back to God.  I feel privileged that I get to take part in this moment in HIStory.

“Gather to Me my consecrated ones, who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice . . . call upon Me in the day of trouble and I will deliver you” —Psalm 50:5,15Ten years ago, four hundred thousand primarily young people, the consecrated ones, the Nazarites, gathered to the Mall in D.C. to fast and pray for America. Now, ten years later, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Seismic political, economic, and societal shifts are drastically reshaping California, every state, and the nation. This is the time for a great spiritual outpouring to be unleashed to meet the demand of these times.

God’s prescription in the day of trouble is to regather the consecrated ones to the place of the covenant, the cross, not just to be blessed, but to rend our hearts and call upon God. In that place of united fasting and prayer, God promises to release deliverance and help.

Therefore, we are again summoning thousands of young and old—those who have been marked by TheCall's solemn assemblies and those whose hearts burn for their generation—to gather in Sacramento as consecrated, intercessory representatives from, and on behalf of, California and every state to "altar" their lives, "altar" their states, and "altar" the nation.

Can California be changed? Can a nation be changed? Yes, but only if they are altar-ed!

“Elijah repaired the altar of the Lord that was broken down . . . then the fire fell.” —1 Kings 18:30, 38

Will you join with us?  You may not be able to travel to Sacramento, but will you commit to set aside some time on Saturday to fast and pray, crying out to God from a place of repentance on behalf of our nation, and asking Him to bring revival?  Our nation is in trouble, but God has the anwer!

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)

Will you cry out? Will you rend your heart, asking God for mercy? God is faithful to answer the cries of His children.
