There's a condition. It's not that someone else prayed that there would have been victory. Moses was holy.
Moses was holy. And God sought for a man among them and he found someone in Moses. He found someone in Moses.
But he looked at a generation at some stage and said, of the people of God and of their land, I found none. Is it possible? Is it possible that the church is in such a state? That God, who looks for a man whose heart is perfect toward him, that he can show himself strong on the behalf of, that he can do great things. You know, I found none.
I sought for something. He wondered that there was no intercessor. Do you know what that means? God was staggered.
The Bible actually said something staggered God. He was staggered that no one was praying while their land was being destroyed. He was staggered.
Will the children of God sit back and allow their land to be destroyed in this land? That's what I'd like to ask America. War is war, beloved. It's not something for one night when the church decides to do something.
War is when you get down until the battle's won. And you don't withdraw from war until it's won, if you're any army that has any consequence on the enemy. We have weapons.
The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. I guarantee you, American Christians, I guarantee you that what the devil has taken 50 years to do in this land, in bringing demoralizing things, in undermining integrity and decency, in defiling your land, so that your land faces judgment. I guarantee you that what the devil has taken 50 years to do, we could do, we could undo in a few days as the people of God on our knees in prayer.
But do you honestly believe in that? Or is it just a statement that stirs you but won't motivate you into warfare? Will you wake up when your country has totally destroyed America? I'm speaking to the Christians. Thank God you've got a president who is the only president in the whole world. There's not one nation on earth apart from America whose president has said publicly he's saved and loves Jesus Christ.
You are the only nation on earth with such a man. Don't condemn him. Don't criticize him.
He's only saved seven years, I believe. He's a babe in Christ. Be careful.
Just thank God he's saved. And pray for him. Pray for him.
That's your duty. The Holy Ghost is in him that he is saved. But I'm going to stagger you, Mr. President, if you ever get to hear this.
And I'm going to stagger your military armies. America has a greater need than you, sir, being saved. America has a greater need than armies.
America's only hope, sir, is not you. It's God's people across this land of all denominations, the true born-again believers getting right with God. If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, was said in the Old Testament to Israel, that's its context.
But there was not one verse in the Old Testament God didn't have in mind for you and me to tell us his heart. People of God, that promise was meant with you in mind when God gave it, because it's the word of God. If my people in this land, now in the gospel dispensation who are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways, from their sins, confess their sins, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sins and will heal their land.
That word heal their land is an amazing statement. God will heal this land when the people of God get right with God, when they get holy hands, when they begin to pray effectual, fervent prayers in their righteous people, when their hearts don't condemn them in the light of this book, and they get on their knees, they will undo every stronghold the devil has in this world against them, and they will undo every stronghold the devil has built up above 50 years and even more to bring this land to a place where judgment could come upon it, unless we start praying. Christians, you could turn this back to this land back to God.
In days the strongholds of the devil will crumble when the people of God get right with God and storm heaven in prayer. God has a holy obligation if we do that, and he's waiting for it, brother, otherwise all these verses mean nothing. We have weapons that will startle you to the degree that when you start seeing what God can do, I don't think any of us will recover at what God will do to us.
We'll be so startled. I've often been amused, I've often been amused at the testimonies of men who had no idea of the power of prayer. I have often been amused at the testimonies of men who had no idea of the power of prayer until they prayed a burdened prayer in desperation against the devil, in indignation.
I know a minister, I won't tell you what denomination it is, he was telling me in our country where I come from it is the denomination you don't go where you want to go, you go where you're sent after a certain term. It's not up to the minister where he goes of this particular denomination. He was sent to a new town in our country to a new pulpit, the same denomination but a new congregation.
He stood up his first sermon Sunday morning and he preached faithfully for God, he preached about hell. He preached the judgment of God on unrepentant sin and sinners and he cried out, except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of heaven. He cried out, there's no hope of you going to heaven unless you're born of God, born again, which results through repentance and faith by grace, through faith in the blood of Jesus Christ and receiving Christ as your Savior.
He cried out, repent or be damned. Well, thank God someone's still crying it out because that's the whole Bible from the heart of the God of love that you say wouldn't say those words you liberal theologians shame on you, sending people to hell just so you can have a job. But you don't live from this book, sir.
God will require of you and their blood will be in your hands. You better start preaching truth or get out of the pulpit, you liberal theologians. You're in for a terrible shock.
In the next moment you'll be in front of God, not only with your own soul to give account for but those you kept from truth. This man didn't hold back. This man preached truth and thank God for such a man.
But after he preached the sermon of hell and repentance, oh, and being born again, all hell broke loose in the church. Where did it come from? The chief elder. Before he was at the bottom step of the pulpit, the chief elder with all the elders and all the deacons, they were all upset, but the chief elder was the voice.
He came and did he bless this man while the congregation was still standing there. You will never, ever, ever preach like that again in this church. Don't you dare ever preach these things again.
You will never use the word hellfire in our pulpit. You will never use the word born again. Oh, my, in our church, don't you ever tell us or imply to us that we are going to hell.
We're Christians!
