Shane Idleman emphasizes the urgent need for a sacred assembly among God's people to pray, fast, and mourn for the state of the church and the nation. He reflects on the historical practice of calling the community together to seek God's face during times of moral decay and spiritual apathy. Idleman shares his personal journey and the burden he feels as a preacher, distinguishing between the roles of pastor and preacher, and calling for genuine repentance and humility. He warns against the dangers of complacency and the necessity of afflicting the soul to experience true revival. Ultimately, he urges the congregation to return to God, promising that He will pour out His Spirit upon those who seek Him earnestly.

Shane Idleman emphasizes the significance of a Sacred Assembly, highlighting three key characteristics: the necessity of fasting to prepare the heart, the importance of gathering in a holy place to seek God, and the need for genuine repentance and brokenness before the Lord. He draws from the book of Joel, urging believers to turn to God with all their hearts, recognizing the urgency of the spiritual condition of society and the need for heartfelt prayer and worship. Idleman calls for a collective response to the moral decline around us, encouraging a deep, sincere connection with God that transcends mere ritualistic practices.
