Perplexing Thoughts

Since the moment I heard about The Call, Washington DC I have been wrestling with perplexing thoughts. When I went to The Call, Nashville I had strong faith that our prayers would impact a nation. During that event I felt an open heaven. During the time of repentance for the sins of our nation I knew God's heart was touched. But, going into this Call I don't have that same hope. Prior to 2008 many Christians were predicting that America was about to face a financial crisis. Normally when I hear such doomsday reports I pay little attention to them. But, as people spoke about the coming difficulty I knew that this time it held weight. As I see difficulty unfolding these claims are being verified. The spiritual atmosphere has actually changed. I sense that the Lord is drawing back some of His protection. He is preparing to discipline a nation that has taken prayer out of schools, aborted fifty million plus babies, and fed on pornographic tolerance. I honestly have no peace about the upcoming elections. I really think no matter who wins the election America is in for a troubling four years. So, as I prepare to go to Washington DC I wonder what I hope to accomplish. I honestly think judgement is inevitable. Our prayers might help to shift certain matters, but overall I think America is in trouble. Today as I filled up my gas tank and saw the numbers climb to $57.77 I actually thanked God. I thanked Him for robbing me of the ability to just live in materialism. I thanked Him for waking me up and giving me a sober attitude about the years to come.
I actually had a dream where God asked me, "If America is overtaken by Islamic extremist would you still serve me?" I know the possibility of such an event occurring rarely crosses the minds of most Americans. I know that America has lived in security for a great while. But, I fear we have opened ourselves up for such events to occur. And even if it never happens it is important that we ask ourselves if we would be able to stand.
I am not a prophet, but I have a feeling that God is going to interrupt The Call Washington DC. I think deep repentance is going to shake the crowds. People are going to come face to face with the reality that 50 million lives have been eradicated of. We are living during a holocaust. They won't be able to return to their lives and be the same. I think sorrow will grip a generation and they won't be comforted.
