The Spirit is moving across the San Francisco Bay Area, and it is on the brink of revival and the greatest harvest of souls ever. Several years ago, the Lord visited renowned prophet, Bob Jones, and showed him that there is actually a Heavenly power switch, and once that switch is turned 'on' it will launch the greatest move of God in North America that we have ever seen. The Lord also told Bob that He would not flip that switch until the Body of Christ is properly grounded. For the last several decades, seasoned apostles Georgian and Winnie Banov and Kris Vallotton have been busy 'grounding' the Church on the firm foundation of Christ and His finished works. Stacey Campbell has seen a generation that is coming, and has prophesied that the Lord would pour His Spirit out in a distinct way for national transformation. GLORY REIGN is not just a conference, it is a prophetic act to open up the West Coast gates for the King of Glory to establish the rule of His Kingdom! In dreams and visions, we have seen Tsunami waves of Grace headed straight for the Bay Area -- This is a trumpet sound for the emerging apostolic generation, called to reign in life with great power and great grace. Come for a fresh impartation and receive supernatural soul-winning equipment needed for the last days harvest and revival.
And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all. -- Acts 4:33 For if by the one man's offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ. -- Romans 5:17 Thursday – Oct 16, 2008

TheCall CA - November 1, 2008 - Qualcomm Stadium, San Diego
They came like waves crashing onto the shores of California. Leaving behind a legacy of glory and apostolic influence, great manifestations of the power and love of God broke in on past generations of hungry saints. Waves of God's great presence cascaded upon her shores in 1906, 1919, 1947, 1948, 1967, 1971, 1980, and 1994. These waves are California's revivals.
In the midst of unspeakable decadence, corporate greed, cultural trend setting, and global pornographic exportation, there lies deposited deeply below California's crusty surface gold-there's oil in her hills. Something continually draws God to the scene.
Could it be that God is drawn to her pain? Maybe God sees her shores as hosting a planet's lost prophets with misplaced passions, or maybe He is drawn to the cry of her wandering masses. Whatever the case, He comes, and when He does, the entire world is changed.
The revivals sown in Hollywood loosed great evangelists like Bill Bright and Billy Graham. The Jesus Movement gave us Calvary love songs that have kissed the youth of the globe. The new wine of worship and healing came from California's vineyards. These ancient songs awaken us from our nightmare and remind us of something that was and can be again. Hollywood, the "woman at the well," could become the great evangelist again in these last days.
In 1946, Franklin Hall launched a fasting and prayer movement out of San Diego with a book called Atomic Power with God through Fasting and Prayer. Thousands were stirred to enter into extended consecration fasts. Shortly thereafter, the great healing revival broke out in 1947, followed by the campus revivals and the Hollywood revivals of 1948. In that very same year across the globe in the heart of the Middle East, by God's divine mandate Israel was again called a nation.
Could it be that there was a connection between what God was doing in California and the orchestrating of His divine purposes in the creation of the nation of Israel? Is it possible that the outpouring of God's presence and the igniting of prayer in California were in reality connected with God's heart to birth an entire nation? I believe that it was a global Joel 2 moment-that after the fast, God restored the land and poured out His Spirit on all flesh, just as He promised He would in scripture.
Now 50 years later, California sits within a fog of moral confusion, and I hear TheCall again: "Gather the people, call a fast, and afterward I will pour out my Spirit."
Recently the Supreme Court of California disregarded the votes of the people and legalized homosexual marriage. The entire world listened attentively as the mayor of San Francisco boasted: "As California goes, so goes the rest of the nation. It's inevitable. This door is wide open. It's going to happen whether you like it or not. This is the future, and it's now." The world is looking to California for moral leadership while California finds herself caught in the snare of idolatry and self-worship.
Recently, I received an urgent call on behalf of hundreds of pastors in California who are challenging the Supreme Court ruling with Proposition 8, which thousands are being mobilized to vote for on November 4 to restrain homosexual marriage. They asked me to bring fasting and prayer to the state, understanding that this is an ongoing spiritual battle that wouldn't be won through political petitioning alone. They recognized the reality that only the weapons of fasting and prayer will turn the tide. So they asked us to bring TheCall to San Diego, not knowing that we had already received several powerful directives from the Lord a year ago that TheCall was to go to the stadium in San Diego.
The situation in California is a reflection of how far down the line we have come in removing the very moral foundations that preserve our society. The moral levies in America are breaking and once marriage is redefined, it will only be a matter of time before the entire structure of morality collapses within our nation. In one sense, this California Supreme Court decision mirrors our own inward moral concessions as a church to the prevailing culture, and it is the fruit of a compromising silence that has failed to confront the rising spiritual and political contenders.
But it is not too late! This is not a time for hiding in caves. It is time to stand up in the face of this prevailing darkness and resist mightily the spirit of peaceful coexistence and apathetic resignation. We are coming to a Mount Carmel moment, which I believe could be the church's finest hour-the hour in which she challenges her own compromise and gains authority through prayer and action, which is her true vocation. Then our light will break forth like the dawn and truth will no longer be trampled under the feet of renegade kings and judges.
The church is not at the mercy of political decrees of destruction. Jesus is the Lord of history! Though these decrees stand today, they will not stand forever. God is the one who reverses the edicts of man, using the church as an agent of righteous revolution to displace kings and overthrow their decrees through the weapons of fasting and prayer.
To this end, we are summoning believers from all across the state of California and the nation to a 40-day season of fasting and prayer, beginning September 24 and ending on November 2. Like Daniel, we face principalities and powers and can only contend with them through extended prevailing fasting and prayer. Chuck Colson, quoting a professor from Princeton, declared that we are in "the Armageddon of the culture wars of America." If that is true, then we have no tomorrow. We must fast and pray and win now through costly intercession! Stay tuned to www.TheCall.com/TheCaliforniaFast during these 40 days for daily devotionals to help focus and fuel your heart during this fast.
At the end of the fast, on November 1 we are summoning the entire nation to gather for a Joel 2 moment. When there is no remedy, when there is no natural hope, God still has a holy prescription: blow the trumpet in Zion, gather the people, and call a fast.
Let the believers of this great state gather and cry out to God believing that California could become the flashpoint of real change in America and not the open door to societal collapse. Let us return to the fasting, praying womb in San Diego and seek the face of God on November 1, 2008 at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, CA.
