Just got back from a non-denominational gathering on the county courthouse lawn. The purpose was to praise God and pray for our county, nation, and the world. It was a very good, very well planned and organized and well done event. Pastors from several area churches offered prayers, and much of what was said would have gone over well in a Messianic assembly. The one where I worship was well represented there, though they didn't have our congregational leader (who doesn't really like titles) speak. But he was there, so there were many titzyot "flying the flag" there! There were also Hispanic, Russian, and Ukrainians there, all offering prayers in their own tongue (with interpretation).
Frankly, I think we need more of this. More coming together, less division. More public declaration for our God and less hiding behind differences. I didn't agree with everything said, but I did agree with most of it. And they were saying one thing I have said for a while now, but not enough and not loudly enough. The only thing that will save this nation is a revival movement!
2 Chronicles 7:14 (ESV) if my people who are called by my name 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.
This wasn't a revival. But it was a good start! I know some of the organizers, so I am going to try to talk with them and see if maybe ...
