Another vision...
I'm beginning to think that my abortion strategy and my strip club strategy are and will overlap tremendously... And the wonder of it is that I'm still downloading.
Call a Joel 2 solemn assembly. This is not just the "sacred" assembly that the Church of Fort Wayne had last week, but a truly solemn one. One where there is literally weeping and gnashing of teeth!!
Anyways, I've thought of the solemn assembly as a one-day, 24-hour IHOP-style prayer meeting. I know we aren't 24/7 yet by any means but I believe that God would release the right pieces to bring one 24 hour set to fruition. This would be followed by 40 days of prayer and fasting, and perhaps a literal taking-on of sackcloth and ashes. I believe we need people committed to 40 days straight to pray and fast in both the foreground and the background; those willing and able to mount physical and spiritual protests at the doors of the abortion clinic as well as those who would pray for them from across town in the prayer room. God wants us to go after the closure of the clinic.
I believe this must be a none-stop 40 day event - not partial, not half-hearted. It must be a complete, total and utter statement of the people's belief that this place should close down. This will not be a "weekend warrior" event like those in the past who held weekend protests, went to jail for the cause, received their own glory and honor from man, and were bailed out to return to work on Monday.
I believe God is asking for a continual 40 days. And I believe he wants to use this event to raise up a generation of teens and young adults into passionate pursuit of the Bridegroom. God wants to use them because they are not afraid yet of what the world thinks of them. Those who are willing, if it comes to it, to be arrested for protesting the abortion clinic and joyfully go off to a weekend of bible reading, prayer and fasting in the jailhouse. If you're arrested and bailed out (I believe God would also set up financial supporters throughout the city to aid this effort also), then you walk out of jail, get picked up and go right back to praying, petitioning, fasting and protesting in front of the abortion clinic. So shall it continue to 40 days. 40 days of unstopping, unrelenting, uncompromising, uninterrupted expression of desire to bring life back to Fort Wayne through prayer seeking God's favor, His forgiveness, His justice...
In your majesty, ride forth!
Come to us. Victorious!

I really agree about the weeping insight. Just praying monotone that God would intervene is often evidence that we are unaware of what we pray. Babies are dying and woman are devalued in the sight of man when God abundently loves them. Can we not mourn!? Such an assembly should be completetly devoid of hype. We should cry out till things change. Contend for God's righteousness to reign. For His kingdom to come down in power and conviction.
Wow man - Lord reveal your will. Bring us the understanding of how to do this in this hour. How do we stand with you God What does that look like? Show us how to love in the midst of terror and murder. Show us how to have compassion as you did Jesus. Show us how to go and take up the cross for ones who would murder the next generation.
