"SLEEPERS"

by: Christy Fast


There are those who sleep
so deep
they cannot hear
they cannot see.
If you ask them to speak
they open their mouths
but nothing comes out.
Like a dream
when you scream
but there is no sound.
Give them something to read
and ask"what does this say?"
it's just markings on a page.
Oh, sleeperswake up!
Don't you see?
There is so much more
than empty words
and lifeless rituals
enforced by mere men.
Who you worship
is so farfrom where you really are.
Again I saysleepers, wake up!
The Bridegroom
is coming.
Do you want to be asleep
when He comes for you?
If you don't arise
He will pass you by.
What then?
For He longs to be seen
to be loved
for who He really is
by who you really are.

Thank you, Christy, for that WAKE UP call! Oh, Lord! Wake us up!! Let us hear the sound, hear the sound of the coming King. Awaken love in our hearts. Make us ready for you. Open the eyes of our understanding, give us wisdom and revelation of the knowledge of YOU!!

CALL 2 FALL

From Lou Engle:

Friends of TheCall,

I am writing 2 days after the killing of Dr. George Tiller, the infamous abortion doctor of Wichita, Kansas, who has been responsible for up to 80,000 abortions. Many of those were late term abortions. We condemn this terrible killing and the use of violence as a means to ending the great injustice of abortion. There will be extremists and extremist groups, but we know that millions of pro-life people and activists in America are peace-loving, and this killing does not represent them in the least.

Justice belongs to the Lord

The Bible says that we are to forgive and even bless our enemies. We are never to take vengeance into our own hands, for ultimate judgment belongs to God. Violence reaps violence, and the shedding of blood reaps the shedding of blood. We urge the pro-life community to continue to stand for truth and to extend forgiveness to those who may use this sad and terrible event to hinder and possibly persecute wrongly those who pray and work peacefully to care for mothers in crisis, adopt children, and end the killing of pre-born infants.

Hope Beyond Politics

Once again America is reeling under the repercussions of its turning away from God and His benevolent rule. The economy is still on the verge of collapse. The upholding of Proposition 8 will further galvanize those who stand against the foundations of marriage between a man and a woman. There is no hope to be found in the political realm. America has one recourse – the church must turn to God in repentance and humility, by confessing her sins and the sins of her nation. Perhaps never before in American history has the moment been more pregnant with the need for the heartfelt enactment of the divine remedy for the crisis at hand.

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

Will you answer the call to restore HOPE?TheCall is fervently joining the burden and vision of Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council. On July 5th, the day after Independence Day, we are calling churches, houses of prayer, and families around the nation to literally get on there knees before the Lord expressing not just in posture, but in desperation our need to return to God. Millions of Muslims bow every day in reverence to their god. Maybe we have lost the deep, reverential fear of the Judge of nations and individuals. This could be a step leading to a lifestyle of humility that alone could magnetize God’s heart to save a nation in her blatant rebellion.

We encourage everyone in TheCall family to go to http://www.call2fall.com/ for the details and heartbeat of this national mobilization.

I will never forget the statement I read soon after 9-11 which said on September 11th America was brought to her knees, but the next day she stood up again. Brothers and sisters, that is my fear. On 9-11 millions of people fell to there knees to pray, and then we got back up again forgetting our national calamity. It’s time for America to fall on her knees in prayer and never lose that posture. On July 5th we join The Call to Fall.

THE MARCHING ARMY

by: zack hale

Amidst the chaos and the confusion

I practice my swordsmanship

In spite of the busyness of life

I polish and shine my shield

Some think I am crazy while others just ignore

But over the noise I soon hear a sound

It is far off in the distance but still there it is

Not many can hear it but I know what I hear

It is a quiet thud but I faintly hear it

It is a monotonous and dull sound

But it has a certain beat and rhythm to it

It is the sound of marching

Not like the sound of a marching band

And not even the sound of a company soldiers

But this is the sound of a mighty army marching

The marching slowly grows louder and louder

And now no one can deny that they hear it

It keeps getting closer and closer with every moment

Soon it drowns out all the chaos and noise

Many are afraid and some are confused

But my hope rises up and my faith is stirred

For I am ready with sword and shield in hand

For this is the day I have lived my entire life for

The day of the great army marching to battle

Many stay behind and they try to discourage others

But I am not deterred nor is does my resolve waiver

I was born for this moment…

I was created for this

To join the army for the Battle of the Ages
