THE CALL BRAZIL 2008

A Holy prescription
When it seems that there is no hope for a nation, God still has His holy prescription.

In fact, God’s remedy for desperate times has always been the same – “if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked way, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and I will heal their land (2 Chron. 7:14).”

Joel said that in times of national crisis and moral collapse, the response of God’s people should be a solemn assembly of united fasting and prayer – Joel 2, verses 12-13, 15-16, 18 & 28:

“…Blow the trumpet in Zion, consecrate a fast, call a sacred assembly; Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children and nursing babes; let the bridegroom go out from His chamber, and the bride from her dressing room...And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions."

At the beginning of 2007, God spoke to us that He was opening the heavens over Brazil.

Like Daniel, when we heard the prophecy, we humbled ourselves in fasting and prayer to align ourselves with His will for the nation (Daniel 9:2-3). We called for a Solemn Assembly in Sao Paulo in August 18th, 2007.

Thousands of people showed up that day to do nothing but fast, pray, and seek the face of God. We all felt that a radical shift took place in the nation that day.

But we want more! We will not be content until the whole nation is turned to God. In order for this to happen, God is showing us that He is opening more doors of repentance in the nation.

So in 2008, thousands more will stand in one accord in city after city - all across Brazil - in the spirit of Joel 2 to fast, pray, and repent to see the nation fully turned back to God.

Come believe with us that a holy violence will hit Brazil. We will not stop contending until His glory comes. We want to see a move of God so big that it moves beyond revival (the salvation of souls) into a lifestyle of reformation– the shifting of every sphere of society (morality, education, business, government, family) to the will of God.

“This is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, O God of Jacob.” Psalm 24:6. Let it be said of us that we were the generation who sought His face and brought a nation to His feet. Come
and cry out to Him together with us.
