Powering UP America!

Key Scripture:  “But its not just Abraham, its also us!  The same thing gets said about us when we embrace and believe the One who brought Jesus to life when the conditions were equally hopeless.”  Romans 4:23, The Message

Power Point:

     You’ve heard my favorite quote from “The Shack” many times but I want to say it again. When Mack, the main character, is telling Jesus about his future and how bad it looks, Jesus replies to him, “Mack, do you realize that the only time you fear is when you don’t see your future with Me in it?” America, do you think we’ve forgotten to look at our future with Jesus in it? Do you think we’ve listened to all the talking heads that say, “God is dead” and believed it at some level? Are you wavering over the thought that Jesus is still able to bring heaven to earth and life from dead things?

Allow me to remind you, that Jesus reminds us, that He’s never going to leave us to our own devices, our own weaknesses, or our own failures. He’s definitely here for the long term. He has plans for us. Remember? Plans to bring us peace and not evil; plans to give us a future and a hope. Do you remember that He also told us He would leave us His own peace that is available every day of our lives to guard our hearts and minds so that we think His thoughts and speak out powerful words of Life?

That should be the bottom line shouldn’t it? What do you think that Jesus is thinking about America?

He’s thinking we should stand firm.

He’s thinking we should be thinking about what He’s thinking about. And He’s thinking that if the same Holy Spirit that got Him through and over the cross is in us, there's no problem.

He’s thinking we should stir up the anointing and take courage.

He's thinking we should fight back to possess our land.

He's thinking we are more than conquerors!

He’s thinking that it’s not over until God says its over.

And its not over.

Power Prayer For America

Father, today I intend to “take courage” from your character and your promises. You’ve said that they provide every thing I need to sustain real life. I intend to decide and declare that You are not dead but very much alive and that You still have the ability to bring life from death, to overcome evil with good, and to bring this nation back to its foundation in You. It was a very strong foundation, and it still is. Lord I ask that You raise up Joshua’s all over this land to reclaim our land and possess what You gave to our Fathers. We are not innocent.  We probably don’t deserve it but that’s the advantage of Your great mercy. Let that mercy and grace hunt us down and pursue us until it catches up.

Let Your Truth keep marching on!

In Jesus Name.  Amen.
