A TURNING POINT: Communion AmericaAt the memorial service [for Charlie Kirk], despite the obvious pain in her soul, Erika extended forgiveness to her husband's killer. In doing so, she bore witness to Christ and the forgiveness He extended to us all at the cross. In that moment of surrender, her act of forgiveness intersected with the greatest turning point in all of history...
"O Lord, God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel... answer me, so that this people may know that you, O Lord, are God, and that you are turning their hearts back to you" - 1 Kings 18:36-37 In March of 2012, a group of thirty-nine women embarked on a 250-mile prayer journey from the nation's largest Planned Parenthood clinic in Houston to the federal courthouse in Dallas, where Roe v. Wade first began. This "Back to Life" campaign was more than a prophetic act—it became ground zero for the prayers of the saints contending to overturn the death decree of legalized abortion and to restore a culture of life in America. On April 5th and 6th of that year, we converged in Dallas for The Esther Call. One morning before the event, our intercessory team was crying out for an Elijah Revolution—the turning of the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the children back to the fathers. There was a palpable weight on those prayers as renewed faith ignited within us to see Malachi 4:5–6 fulfilled on the dates of 4/5–6. "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." - Mal 4:5-6 A few weeks later, one of our leaders was visited in the night with a message from the Lord. She was told that we had indeed been granted the Spirit of Elijah in answer to our prayers and that he would cause many "u-turns". Ten years later, Roe v. Wade was overturned. Just last week the Houston Planned Parenthood clinic closed its doors and went out of business. .
And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. In Cindy's dream, she was in a Bible school praying for the nations when suddenly she found herself standing with Donald Trump. She said, "I felt the weakness of our own understanding—even in this Bible school—we didn't know enough. Yet I knew I was to declare to him: 'God will turn your greatest enemies into your greatest allies. The tables will be completely reversed.' Then I looked to a group of millennials and asked, 'Who will stand for honor? Who will honor the President?' Yet none rose—only one or two at most. I pressed them again, but still they remained seated." Cindy felt the Lord say, "This generation must be turned. We need to focus our prayers on the millennials, that God would turn their hearts. For honor's sake, He will take those who have said, 'Not my President,' and those who have opposed him the most, and He will turn Trump's greatest enemies into his allies." Last month, our attention was dramatically drawn to Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA. It became evident how powerfully God has been using this young man to fulfill this prophecy and answer these prayers. His very life seemed marked by the Spirit of Elijah as he gave himself to turning his generation back to the wisdom of our founding fathers and to faith in God Himself. In the wake of Charlie's assassination, Erika Kirk has been thrust into the forefront of this move of God. Spiritually, she has become a living example to us of aligning with God's heart even in the midst of unbearable grief and injustice. At the memorial service, despite the obvious pain in her soul, Erika extended forgiveness to her husband's killer. In doing so, she bore witness to Christ and the forgiveness He extended to us all at the cross. In that moment of surrender, her act of forgiveness intersected with the greatest turning point in all of history.
In a recent exhortation, Lou Engle asked, "What would happen if we all came to that table - every tribe, every ethnic group, every church, division, denomination - with a heart that says, 'Father, forgive them, they know not what they do'? Lou went on to acknowledge, "It wouldn't mean that all the questions are answered or all the issues taken care of. However, we must begin where Jesus began. He did not ask for an apology before offering forgiveness. When the church begins at that place, we could possibly experience a baptism of love that is stronger than all the wounding of our hearts." Let us, therefore, prepare ourselves to partake of the Lord's Supper in a worthy manner - not just for ourselves, but for this generation. We believe God has brought us to another climactic moment for spiritual breakthrough. May He find a remnant in this hour through whom He can glorify His Son and turn many hearts back to Him.
