What Is - "Mission for America?"
A brief explanation that describes the purpose for this ministry - by Pastor Robert Thibodeau
Let me tell you what "Mission for America" is all about. I have been praying for some time…over 6 months (this is now November 2013)…for “revival to come to America again.” I now believe that revival HAS COME. It is here – NOW. Revival IS NOT a one week or two week thing at church and then that’s it…it is a renewing of Spiritual Authority in a city or country…and it usually spans a period of DECADES in the process.
Consider, for example, the ongoing abortion rights battle in this country. Now Christians have been praying against this for 40 years….and a recent survey found that, young people, between the ages of 16 and 25, there is a majority…53 or 54 percent of them…that are pro-life! We are winning this battle…because, despite the efforts of the liberals and the teachers and professors and all the other voices…these are learning to seek and hear from God on this issue. And these very same young people will soon be - in just a few short years - our new Congressmen and women and governors and they will be shaping the future of this nation.
I said all of this to bring you to this point…REVIVAL IS HERE, in AMERICA, right now. It is also under attack by the enemy. This same group of people that believe in pro life…75% of them, according to recent studies, will come out of college rejecting their belief in Christianity. So the devil is working against this same group of people. That is why it is so important to continue praying, to continue fighting this battle…and we fight until we win! Amen!
Now, for “Mission for America” – the Lord has laid on my heart to travel to very strategic - geographic points and locations in the US… for the specific reason and purpose of speaking into the atmosphere in these locations that “Jesus is Lord over the United States of America.” We are to video tape these prayers…they do not last over, probably 10 minutes…we are to come back and put them on our website and post them to YouTube for everyone to see.
These locations are the farthest, geographical regions in the USA and our territories. But, we are to begin in very important, symbolic cities. Our first one was held in Philadelphia on November 2, 2013. Why Philly? Because it is the home of the Liberty Bell and Indpendence Hall – two iconic symbols of the Faith our founding fathers had as they formed this nation. In addition, the Lord spoke to me from Revelation 3:7-8 where he said, “behold, I have put before you an open door, which no man can shut.” He was speaking to the “church in Philadelphia.” I know the "American Philadelphia" is not the Philadelphia he was speaking to in the Bible….but our city of Philadelphia took their name from THAT Philadelphia…so again, there is symbolism involved. So, we went to Philly first – so I could boldly go through that OPEN DOOR the Lord said, He has opened for us.
Next up was the nations Capital - Washington, DC! We traveled there on November 15, 2013. We did the same thing - a public prayer while video taping - out on the National Mall with the Capital building as our backdrop. Now, I don't believe I have to tell you the symbolic significance of praying in Washington, DC - it IS the center of power of this nation (and home to some of the most powerful demonic influences that affect our governmental leaders).
Next up, New York City! We traveled on November 20, 2013 to a place called St. Paul's Chapel, just a stones throw away from ground zero at the World Trade Center. The Spiritual symbolism for this location is in this nations history as well. After being sworn in as the First United States of American President in 1789, President George Washington then led the members of the First US Congress into the Chapel for prayer…a prayer for our nation. During our prayer session in NYC, I ended the video with the actual prayer spoken by President Washington.
Next up - well…you will have to click over onto the upcoming schedule for that! I don't want to write it here - and THERE!
