Evangelist Franklin Graham is calling on Christians to participate in a day of fasting and prayer for our nation today. Graham, the president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and of Samaritan's Purse , an international Christian relief organization, believes the church needs to call upon the name of God and ask for Him to move in this country. He stressed that our nation is facing multiple crises - from a pandemic to a turbulent presidential election, and widespread racial unrest. "I am urging followers of Jesus Christ to fast and to pray for our nation on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25. Mark it on your calendars and prepare now. I hope individuals, families, and churches will join me in asking for the Lord's help and for His will to be done in this critical election. Will you?" Graham wrote on Facebook.

The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound
thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so
is every one that is born of the Spirit (John 3:8
).
).
There’s a message that’s reverberating throughout the world; it’s the
prophetic word that was given many years ago about the “sleeping
giant.” The world has heard that there’s a “sleeping giant” somewhere in
the world, and every nation has been on the alert. They’ve discussed
this at the highest levels; they’ve tried everything to assess various
nations to ascertain who this giant is, but no nation fits the
descriptions.
Every time something happens in any nation, the world gets in a
frenzy, because they were told that the “sleeping giant” will arise from
the distress of others. So, they wonder what kind of distress would
awaken this “sleeping giant.” It’s a message with a strong signal; and
intelligence officials at the highest levels around the world are alert
and waiting for the emergence of this giant.
But you see, this ‘sleeping giant’ isn’t one of the countries in the
United Nations, no; it’s the Church of Jesus Christ! Glory to God!
Truly, for many years, it seemed the Church was sleeping. But it’s not
so anymore; the Church has awakened. The world may not know it, but
they’ll find out soon.
Our theme scripture says, “The wind bloweth where it listeth, and
thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and
whither it goeth….” The Church is a mystery, and we’re unstoppable! The
Church is the greatest nation on earth, with the power and glory to
tame this world. This isn’t something to try to figure out with your
brain; you can only relate with this truth with your spirit. When you
look at the things happening in, with, and through the Church in
different nations of the world today, you’d know that indeed, the Church
is taking over, and the gates of hell can’t prevail. Glory to God!
CONFESSION
The Church is marching on, and the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it. Christians around the world are encouraged and fortified to
stand strong and tall for the message of the Gospel, against every
adversity and adversary, establishing the kingdom of heaven in all the
nations of the world, to the glory of God, the Father! Hallelujah!

Revelation 11:15-17
And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven,
saying, The kingdoms of this world are become [the kingdoms] of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. And the
four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon
their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God
Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken
to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
