Ohio is key to this election: Pray! Pray! Pray!

I just read this on the Elijah List.   Please read and start mobilizing prayer!

Lori Willmann: "Wake Up Call to Ohio!
A swing state in the elections"

Dear Watchman and Reformers,

We want to send this out to you today as we are in the midst of the Days of Awe to sound the trumpet and the WAKE UP CALL to OHIO! This is an "ALL HANDS ON DECK" call to the WALL of INTERCESSION as perhaps never before to STAND and FIGHT FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS NATION!

Once again, Ohio is at the center of the National Presidential Elections. Both presidential candidates have targeted Ohio as a "must win" state. Historically, no Republican presidential candidate has ever won the national election without winning Ohio. Knowing this, Ohio's Secretary of State deliberately changed the rules of the election process in ways that have greatly compromised the integrity of the voting process in Ohio. We may never know how many fraudulent votes will be counted, as there is no way to separate these votes from valid absentee ballots until after the election has occurred!

BUT GOD! In the midst of this chaos and confusion, we received a video clip that was posted on the website of Eagles Wings Ministries, during their Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets) gathering. The prophetic word released is from Julie Meyer, a nationally known and respected prophet. In her word, God is saying that Ohio holds the KEY to tipping the scales of this election - specifically, THE INTERCESSORS! Please view this powerful video clip (click here to view. Note: you may need QuickTime to view this; follow the prompts to download it before viewing).

In addition to this, I received two emails from a separate source that included a postscript on this word from Julie Meyer:

"Also be praying for Ohio again. I had an encounter with the Lord where I heard a song coming out of Heaven and it was:

If I can just get to Ohio
If I can just get to Ohio.
Ohio will be given the golden key
To tip the scales of justice for the babies.
Ohio will be given the golden key
to tip the scales of justice for the babies. 
Pray...for...Ohio..."

And another word two days later:

"I was also in North Carolina last week and I spent the evening with Bob and Bonnie Jones. Bob actually told me the identical word that I had just prophesied at Roberts Stearns' conference:

"This is about the VP.
This election, we are not electing a President.
We are electing a Vice President.
All eyes will be on Ohio
And intercession is the key that will tip the scales."

But Bob said that he thought people are not taking this seriously and people were not praying right now. So we need to get the word out to "pray, pray, pray."

The elections have not been decided because God is giving us the opportunity to intercede and tip the scales for righteousness."

In response to this trumpet blast to WAKE UP OHIO, we are calling for:

• ALL to FAST and PRAY throughout this month until the week following the elections! SET UP WATCHES of the LORD, ESPECIALLY THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT. PASTORS - SET UP 24/7 PRAYER IN YOUR CHURCHES!

• ENCOURAGE REGISTERED VOTERS TO VOTE EARLY BY FILLING OUT ABSENTEE VOTER BALLOTS AT THEIR LOCAL COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS.

They can avoid long lines at the precincts on Election Day, make sure they voted, and they can do it when it is a convenient time for them. This will also free them up to help on Election Day and spend time in intercession throughout the day. Call and/or email everyone on your contact list to get out and vote, and to vote righteously!

• We have posted the 40-Day Prayer Directive from the National Governmental Prayer Alliance on the Ohio Governmental Prayer Alliance website. The prayer goes through November 3rd, and there is still time to jump in and pray (click here to view).

• We will be holding a special solemn assembly in Chillicothe, Ohio - this Thursday, October 23, 2008 at 7pm. This is for Ohio and for those in other states who feel led to join in with Ohio to raise up a standard and a cry for righteousness, justice and mercy! Join Dutch Sheets, Tim Sheets, Robert Henderson and other state and national leaders as we gather together to cry out for mercy, justice and righteousness to be done in the upcoming elections! We will be hosted byOpen Door Ministries, located at: 3130 S. Bridge St. in Chillicothe, Ohio 45601. For more information visit www.ohgpa.org.

This is a crucial time as we approach the upcoming election, the state of our economy, and so much more. The prophetic words being spoken over Ohio breathe a fresh mandate for us to come together on this day, fasting, and taking seriously the role of Ohio regarding all that is going on in our world.

Chillicothe was the first capital city of Ohio. It is important that we go back to the place of our historical roots as a state to cry out to God for His Mercy to cover us as we prepare Ohio for the upcoming elections on November 4.

We have truly entered a pivotal time, not only our state, but in our nation. Now, more than ever, we believe it is critical that we gather together corporately to raise our voices in unity for God's will and rule to be established and fully functioning in Ohio and the nation.

We need focused and strategic intercession to go forth without ceasing, not only in the governmental realm, but in all the mountains of our society!

We look forward to having you join us for this crucial Solemn Assembly in Chillicothe. Also, there are still some spots open for the Convergence '08 Conference in New York City, which will be held on October 30-November 1. It will be an opportune moment in time for us to gather in unity and oneness of heart to seek the Lord's face during this time in our nation's history.

Standing and warring for the soul of our nation,
