Do you Want to Join Me?

My heart was so very heavy all day. I am certain many of you have felt the same way.

What will happen to our nation? How will this all turn out? Is this the beginning of God’s judgment on America? What will it look like next year for America? What will happen if the economy crashes and our kids we are all adopting aren’t here yet? What does this all mean?

I have a sense of urgency that we, who call upon the name of the Lord, must fast and pray! We must ask God for His mercy on our great land. We must ask Him to forgive us for our flagrant rebellion against Him and seeking, much of the time, only to please ourselves. If you are unfamiliar with fasting, it is merely giving up food to spend time in prayer. I have seen God move in HUGE ways when I’ve/we’ve fasted in the past.

Throughout scripture people of God would fast and pray when they wanted God to move in a big way. I am setting aside tomorrow (Tuesday) and also Thursday to spend some time praying and fasting for our nation – asking God to forgive us and heal our land. He is certainly capable.

If you would like to join in, email me pastorlinn@iriverchurch.com or post a comment. I could use some encouragement that we are doing this together.

  1. I couldn’t agree with you more. I also feel a terrible unrest and burden for our nation as we see hearts turning away from our founding fathers vision for our nation. While none of the presidential contenders are perfect, my choice will be the ones closest to the principles in His word. Thanks for posting this.
