"Put a stake in the ground and declare that we will no longer be divided and that we will allow the Lord to be Lord, and that the church will rise up and say ‘Lord, let Your Kingdom come, let Your will be done.'"

(London, England)—Hundreds of Christians, representing many denominations, gathered at the Emmanuel Centre Church in London last weekend to cry out to God over the moral and spiritual crisis in the UK. As reported in Christian Today, The State of the Nation gathering also focused on repentance over the church's silence in the face of immoral legislation passed over the decades, particularly in the areas of the unborn child and marriage.

"There are many people in great despair because the whole world system is coming down around them. God will bring many people into the light of salvation out of that darkness and they will come back again to a fear of the Lord," he said.

"Dr Clifford Hill, agreed. "God loves to use people who have been found out of distress," he said. "We will see that increase in this generation."
