John 12:34, The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?
Would it be out of place to say that America is for the majority, a gentile nation? In aspect of that statement, this is in relation to the Jewish people who are the chosen people of God according to the Bible.
If I understand correctly, since I am a gentile, I was never chosen by God as the Jew was, but instead, I am a recipient of the overflowing grace of God. I am the dog receiving the crumbs, I am the fortunate due to the unfortunate fate of the Jew and their blindness due to rebellious spirits.
Where then do I come from if I have a self-righteous attitude that says, see me, look at my works, look at my ministry, look at our life, we have done good for God have we not? Who can approach the Lord with this spirit when their Nation is crumbling around them and there appears to be no hope for the future generations to come.
Dear Christian, we must let go of that American mindset that everything will work out as always. We who have the truth know that a nation who turns away from God loses the protection of the Holy Spirit. Our example is living right now and it is called Europe.
Can God warn us any more than He has? Is there more that we must loose, do we need to turn away from more, do we need to add 100 million more baby killings, do we need more same sex acceptance in more of the Christian culture, do we need more creations of act – alike and look-alike Hollywood Christians, and can we give up more of God in our public institutions? In the midst of all of this and more, do we just continue with our weekly rituals of the same things we have always done for worship and church and training and ministering?
My prayer for the Christians in America is this, God help us to let go of America so that we can again have America. Burden our spirits for repentance and let the sins of this nation be confessed before You by our lips. Send us revival and start with your born again children.
Will you stand with me on Christmas day? Will you pray for yourself, your neighbor, your city, your state, and your Nation? Will you come to this Prayer Pilgrimage believing the Lord will hear our prayers and heal our land?
Born Again Christian, you know who this son of man is and He is calling you out. From the shores of California to the borders of Canada, from the tip of Florida, to the Alaskan Mountain peaks, the son of man is calling out his saved, His grafted in, His blood bought and Holy Spirit sealed followers.
By some miraculous way this message shall resonate across America. This is not the work of man but the call of the son of man. Jesus is tired of our complaining about the liberals and the politicians, and the Hollywood crowd, and the public schools, and so on and so on!
It is decision making time. It is time to step out or shut up. We can fall down with the Nation we are so proud of and the Nation that so many have shed blood for, because it is falling and fast. Or we can humble ourselves and pray.
But we have put ourselves in a situation that requires a public disclosure of our faith and the Lord needs us to reveal this to Him by coming together. The Muslims can gather millions for a false prophet, the Hindus as well, the Catholics will throng the Pope by the thousands, yet will we who claim to be born again blood bought followers of Christ come together for the hope of this nation, the Glory of God, and the sake of Jesus Christ?
Will we lift up our voices in unison of humility and repentance? Will we be bold and come to the only real prayer pilgrimage America has ever been asked to assemble? Will we do this or will we forsake this opportunity because of our selfishness and denial. Will we do what is right according to the Holy Spirit or will we do what we think is right according to our own minds?
I do know one thing, this opportunity will be known and there is no excuse we can offer to God once it is past. And again, let me say, if not here then where? Is there a better place or a better time? Should we wait, should we plan more, should we, should we, should we?
The Lord has said, fine I will start this for you. I will pick a place and a time. All you have to do is show up and prove to me and this world that you do love me and you do depend on me to petition the Father on your behalf and your Nations behalf.
But you know what I am afraid of; we will not take this serious. Some big name is not behind it, or it is not in a better location (you know, for our convenience), or we need to plan it more, or whatever the excuse we can come up with we will use.
I go on record, I am contacting certain men and women whom appear to have God’s ear today, and they are being informed of this prayer pilgrimage. If they are blind to this, then I do not know if there is any way people like me will see the importance of this pilgrimage.
But, I trust the Lord for this. It is His and I am but a small voice, a small servant of Christ.
Wake us up oh Lord, wake us up to see your glory, to see your magnificent mercy and grace poured out on a people and a nation who have lost their way. Let us not grow weary, but let us see the truth and the opportunity being set before our eyes. Help us to see past our own feelings, our own righteousness, our own schedules, our own plans, our own ideas, our own churches, our own ministries, and basically our own life. Let us see this as we saw the new life we gained when we believed in the son of man and was born again, amen.
John 12:35-37, Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them. But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
John 12:38-43, That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed? Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again, He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
Isaiah 53:1, Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
Romans 10:16-21, But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you. But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me. But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
Romans 11:11, I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
Rom 11:17-22, And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree; Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in. Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
