We would like to share with you a highlight in the life of our good friend Aisha, a Muslim convert to Christianity. Last month she was baptized in front of thousands of people at local church, boldly proclaiming, “I left my household to give my life to Christ, without fear. I want to be baptized today…to proclaim my whole heartfelt love for Jesus Christ.” Afterward she ran up to both of us screaming in excitement and almost knocking us over with her hugs. She later told us that she is so thankful for us in her life. Praise the Lord! We encourage you to watch her baptism, it’s really moving.

Yesterday, June 9th, Bill Lewis was the featured guest on Janet
Folger’s Faith 2 Action radio program. The overarching theme was
“Seeking God’s Face.” In the stirring hour-long discussion, Bill
and Janet cover the link between personal and corporate revival,
as well as the need for a holy desperation for God…in our lives,
the Church, and the nation.
PARADISE is a gathering of thousands of college and high school students on May 25 in the center of the nation. Called by the Father and empowered by the Spirit, they will assemble before King Jesus to worship Him in all His majesty from sunrise to sunset.
The multitude will surround “the foundation of the heavenly throne,” built in the center of a rural field.
Many members of Christian bands and worship teams will use their instruments and voices to lead the multitude in pure praise to the very Son of God. In humility, the musicians will be hidden so all focus will be on Jesus.
Interwoven with music will be times of absolute silence and awe in the presence of His majesty. At other times worshippers will connect with one another to unite their voices in deep prayer.
Nothing will be sold or advertised. The only name called will be Jesus. No agenda will be promoted. No one will become more famous. No organization will make money. The only cause will be His glory and reign.
Like Simeon and Anna, some members of the adult church long to see the full glory of Christ revealed before they die. They may follow the students to the center of the nation in order to intercede over them . . .
. . . and to wonder whether maybe, just maybe, an awakening back to Christ—for all He is today—is about to begin.
This week in Kansas 24-7 Prayer USA is hosting a national gathering for those individuals and ministries interested in 24/7 praying communities on college campuses.
Campus America, a ministry associated with 24-7, will be leading a track focused on college campus ministry:
There is a movement of God underfoot in this nation on our colleges and universities, and it’s starting with prayer. Campus America is an initiative responding to God’s word spoken to us to “Call Campus America to pray!”, and we want to see 24-7 prayer on every one of the 2,582 campuses in America – and then we long to see students engage with the needs of the world out of this place of prayer. The Campus America Track is for students (or soon-to-be students), campus ministers, faculty, parents with kids in college, or those who have a heart and burden for the university. We’ll gather to hear each others’ stories, to pray, and to scheme how each of us can be part of this wave of God sweeping the nation.
This Friday, April 11th, Bill Lewis will be the featured guest on Janet Folger’s Faith 2 Action radio program. In a stirring hour-long discussion, Bill covers Prayer, Revival, Israel, America, and the Millennial Generation. The show will be broadcast from 2-3pm EST on the VCY America radio network.
