Billy Graham's Daughter
Issues 'Mayday' Call to Intercession
This past Spring, Joel Rosenberg and I taught
through the book of Joel as we led a prophecy seminar at The Billy Graham
Training Center at The Cove. It was my privilege to give the first two messages
that covered Joel 1:1 through Joel 2:17.
The impact
on me was profound. Both times, when I stepped off of the platform, I knew God
had spoken. The messages almost made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
Why? Because God was clearly warning that His judgment is coming on America and
it's going to be ugly. I knew it then, and I know it now.
I believe
Jesus is soon to return to take all of His followers to heaven with Him in the
Rapture. While this will be deliverance for you and me, can you imagine the
impact on our nation, let alone the world, when suddenly every single authentic
Christian disappears?
Institutions
will collapse. Banks will close. The Stock Market will plunge. Planes will fall
out of the sky. Cars will crash on the road. Government in America at every
level will disintegrate. Families will be torn apart. In the unprecedented
turmoil, our nation will be vulnerable for our enemies to seize the moment and
attack us. There will be mass chaos, confusion, fear, grief, despair, anger,
threats, danger ... judgment.
Just as God
allowed the Israelites, His people, to go through three of the 10 plagues He
sent in judgment on Pharaoh and Egypt in Exodus 6-8, God may allow His people
today to go through a time of distress and trouble before the rapture takes
place. I believe we are in that time now. I believe it's time to not just pray.
It's time to cry out to God on behalf of our nation and our world.
MAYDAY!
MAYDAY! is an international distress call that signals a life-threatening
emergency.
The purpose of MAYDAY! MAYDAY!:
• To claim God our Father's promise of an
outpouring of His Spirit in these days following extraordinary signs in the sky
... I will pour out my Spirit in those days ... The sun will be turned to
darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day
of the Lord (Joel 2:29, 31).
• To implore God the Holy Spirit to compel the
church to repent of sin and our nation to return to faith in the living God,
that times of refreshing may come (Acts 3:19).
• To entreat God our Savior for an abundant
harvest of souls for His kingdom in the remaining days. Do you not say, 'Four
months more and then the harvest'? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the
fields! They are ripe for harvest (John 4:35).
• To delay or soften God's judgment that is
coming on America and on our world. Who knows? He may turn and have pity and
leave behind a blessing (Joel 2:13-14.).
One month after MAYDAY! MAYDAY! the Supreme
Court will make a landmark decision on marriage. And four months after MAYDAY!
MAYDAY! Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish Feast of Trumpets, will take place on September
13-15. Soon after Rosh Hashanah, the fourth blood moon will occur on September
28.
I believe God is signaling us to get our
attention. The time is critical, and the time is now ... to pray!
