I went to a conference with some very respected speakers at it and I was both encouraged and challenged by their words. But a sadness settled over me because the things they spoke were not foreign to me or probably you. It is a dream that thousands of people in our land, carry in their heart.

They spoke of God's desire to pour out His Spirit in an unprecendented way in this nation. They spoke of the great need for prayer to rise from the heart of the Church and of unity and a great gathering of kindred hearts to the feet of Jesus.

I take nothing away from what they said and am grateful for their visit but my australian comrades, where is your voice. Speak to your mountains of indifference and fear, do not apologize for your passion, or for your great expectations of a glorious Church who bears His image and His name. We are a people who defy the status quo and do what's right. And what is right is that our sons would flourish in their youth and our daughters be pillars in God's house.

It is not OK with me, for them to stray from His love and mercy. He wants to fill them, bless them, give them the desires of their heart but we must pray and see His Kingdom Come in this way. What we ignore today, will demand our attention on a later date. But we are not of those who draw back but pressing on, we will see Him.

On the 10/10/10 all over our nation people will gather in groups small and large and Ask for our Nation. Let's be the movers and shakers of this moment and gather others in His name and for this cause.

When I think of all this I fall to my knees and pray...
