The United States Reformation Prayer Network has implementied a national prayer strategy called "ROOT 52". This prayer initiative is a 52-week prayer strategy to bring the nation back to its covenant roots.
During the first two weeks of 2010, all 50 states will stand together to fast and pray for our national leadership and national governmental structure. Then, we will move forward with each state network continuing to fast and pray with a focus on government leadership and the seven mountains. The torch of prayer and fasting will go "en route" from state to state in the sequence that they came to form the United States of America, until we complete 52 weeks, equaling 1 year.

What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit that he has made to dwell in us"? But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble." Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
James 4:1-10

My dad used to say that a time is coming when it will be the best of the best and the worst of the worst. I believe that we are in the beginning of those times. For those who trust in the Lord it will be the best of the best, but for those who don’t it will be the worst of the worst. We are in a time when the world is raging all around us, but we can be at peace because the prince of peace, a peace that passes all understanding, lives inside of us. As the world is raging and groaning and darkness is all around we are to bring light into a dark and dying world, the light of life, Jesus Christ the Saviour of the world.
We believe that a triumphant reserve is being raised up in this hour, a people who have been trained and equipped for such a time as this to release the glory of God in the earth. We think that God is bringing us to a deeper place of faith and trust in him and if we will quit looking at the world around us with our natural eyes and begin to see with our spiritual eyes then we will begin to see the eternal things of God and become kingdom minded. You may see dry bones but I see an army!
