california: we are NOT too far gone.

Today in my city the Student Call is being held.  I am blessed to be able to be apart of it by watching live video during my study breaks, but I still wish I could be there.  It is truly incredible to see so many kids coming out of their universities and really seek God with their whole hearts.  


Leading up the call was a Daniel fast and I proudly witnessed some of the students I lead in my Alpha group participate.  It was so encouraging and great to watch them pursue after the denial of comfort and seek after the comfort of God.


During one of my study breaks, I heard this verse being proclaimed by Lou Engle and it reads,

"From the west, men will fear the name of the LORD, and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory. For he will come like a pent-up flood that the breath of the LORD drives along." 

Isaiah 59:19

"From the west," meaning California, WILL fear the name of the Lord, was what he proclaimed and it was so encouraging, because, I believe so many people have given up hope on this state. I myself have believed this state was too far gone to be redeemed, but today I was encouraged and reminded of the power of God.  California, as well as the rest of the world, is so consumed with money, media, sex, new age thinking, etc. but I believe we have a God that LOVES this state and YEARNS to see it turn to Him.  What a refreshing message!
