High School Prayer Rally You Will Not Want To Miss!

In years prior, 456 has hosted several events called the "Heal Our Land Project" where we shared the message and vision to see revival in our generation through the power of prayer.

This year (2010-2011), there will be a brand new event on October 2nd: High School Prayer Rally. This rally takes the Heal Our Land Project to another level. On the heals of See You At The Pole (September 22nd), an IHOP team will be leading the worship and prayer time and we'll get to hear from local youth leaders on the prayer movement that is sweeping through schools across our nation. I have been mobilizing prayer in Kansas City schools for many years now and I must say that the most exciting days are just ahead in the next 2-3 years.

Today, the youth of America and the schools of America are faced with a massive crisis due to a destructive culture fueled by demonic influences. Depression, suicide, rape, violence, and every addiction you can imagine has plagued our children. It all can be traced back to one moment in history that opened the flood gates of immorality in our schools: the 1962 Supreme Court Case Engle v. Vitale. This court case removed school sanctioned prayer from public schools and effectively built the foundation for the wall of separation of church and state as it relates to the classroom. In the years following, national test scores decreased, teen pregnancy increased, teen violence increased, teen STDs increased, and even the national divorce statistics increased at a rate that has not declined since.

The removal of prayer from schools also opened the doors to dozens of other court decisions removing God from the school system, even down the history books. What most people do not know about public schools is that prayer really has not been removed. School sanctioned/facilitated prayer has been removed, but not student-led prayer. Therefore, it is essential that we put prayer back on school campuses through student-led gatherings. If we want to make a difference in this generation, and we want to learn from history, the place to start is prayer in the youth.

That is why I am urging you to attend this High School Prayer Rally on October 2nd, a followup event to See You At The Pole in Kansas City. Whether you are a student or a youth leader, if you want to reach the schools and see revival in Kansas City, this event is for you. I will see you there!
