Thank You for Fasting and Praying with Us and for Participating in the National Day of Prayer!
Thank you for continuing to pray and fast with us! The gospel is changing lives!
Let’s keep pressing in for the 12-12-12-12 vision at the Atlanta high school club — believing for a gospel outpouring and for a consecrated revivalist to rise up and lead these gatherings! Also, let’s lift up the five clubs in Montgomery, especially the university club, where 5-10 students have recently begun attending a staffer’s church. We believe God is stirring hearts — and He is on the move! There’s still much to map out technologically and financially, but by God’s grace, this vision will grow and multiply.
The gospel is being proclaimed and the Atlanta club is bearing fruit! This year, one young man was a strong leader in our club — praying, sharing Scripture, and challenging his peers. But about a month ago, he drifted, missing meetings and Zoom revival prayer times, distracted by other influences. At the same time, as we stopped offering food and focused only on the Bread of Life, the numbers dropped — but true disciples began to rise. We’ve witnessed powerful deliverances, healing, and the Holy Spirit moving every week.
Recently, his mother shared a prophetic word over him — that he’s called as an apostle and prophet, but warned of danger if he turned from God. That word shook him. Last week, a staff member invited him back, and he showed up transformed — leading prayer, reading Scripture, joyfully passing out flyers, and for the first time, asking about joining our Zoom revival prayer for young men! Another leader who had been missing also reached out, eager to return. It’s miraculous to see God stirring these young inner-city men, overcoming the traps of gang culture, fatherlessness, and lies of the enemy — and igniting a passion for revival and discipleship. God is moving, and we’re witnessing a miracle unfold! The gospel is powerful!
As we reflect on this past Thursday’s National Day of Prayer, let’s carry this same urgency and hope into our prayers for America. Below is a shortened excerpt from Dutch Sheets’ Give Him 15 post:
“As I watch what’s happening in America, it’s clear: we desperately need revival. Evil and deception run so deep that human effort alone can’t fix it — only a true move of God can. Thankfully, revival has already begun and will prepare the way for reformation.
When people are truly born again, God’s laws are written on their hearts, their spirits come alive, and their minds are transformed. Revival and reformation must go hand in hand: revival changes hearts; reformation changes minds and culture. In past revivals, we saw many saved, but without discipleship, culture was handed over to unbelievers. Today, we can’t repeat that mistake — revival must ignite reformation so its fruit lasts. Let’s keep praying and working for both revival and reformation in our time!”
“Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?” -Psalm 87:6
Thank you again for your faithful partnership in bringing the gospel to our precious students!
United for the harvest,
