I've been studying Church history lately. It's a seminary class I'm taking but it's incredibly fascinating. It's interesting how the Body of Christ (the Church) has become what it is over time and how it's changed directions many times over what is theologically orthodox. I could write about that for a couple weeks worth of blogs but that's not what I'm getting at.

God has shown up in revivals and awakenings throughout the course of Church history and although the repercussions of these events vary the initiation of them has common denominators. Upon further inspection these revivals and awakenings are spread throughout the Bible and they contain the same kinds of commonalities. Guess what the primary indicator of coming revival or awakening is?

Prayer.

When God's people in small groups that grew into large ones began to earnestly and fervently pray God came and when He did change spread across the globe. Is that what we're doing here with the WindFarm? God only knows. I don't know that we can put revival on the calendar for this time next year but I don't know that we can't either. What I do know is that revival and awakening are a byproduct of God's people calling to him earnestly from a pure heart. I believe the heart cry of the WindFarm is a clear and resounding, "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on Earth." It echoes down the hallways of my heart. It beats in time with the times. I have to believe that if God's people pray after this fashion (the very fashion Christ taught us to pray) that change can occur. We genuinely can arise up and say ENOUGH to the things that are standing opposed to the Kingdom of Heaven. I'm talking big talk here. These words are far too big for my mouth. I can't carry this alone. I can't carry it at all but I can participate. My prayers joined with yours are going to change things. We can push back the darkness and reclaim what has been lost.

To the left is the beginning. Sign up! Enroll. Enlist. Type your email address and you'll get a response. Let's get 1000 people praying. Let's go after 10,000 then 100,000 then a million of God's people around the world enlisted in this prayer army. This is an elite list. This is a sacred list. This is a private list. It will never be spammed. It will never be exploited. It's this community. This is where we start. STAND UP AND BE COUNTED.

Onward Comrades,
