To the Righteous Remnant
Day 20
REBUILDING THE WALL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IN OUR NATION, STATES, AND TERRITORIES
To the Remnant Rising,
The Lord is calling you to birth a burden in prayer to see the manifested plan of God for our nation come to pass. Today is the 20th day of the 70 Day Decree. This marks the beginning of the 50 State prayer focus. Twenty is the number for redemption. The Lord has a redemptive plan for this nation and each of the 50 states within.
“I looked for someone who might rebuild the wall of righteousness that guards the land. I searched for someone to stand in the gap in the wall so I wouldn’t have to destroy the land, but I found no one.”
(Ezekiel 22:30-31; NLT)
“The words of Nehemiah son of Hacaliah: In the month of Kislev in the twentieth year, while I was in the citadel of Susa, Hanani, one of my brothers, came from Judah with some other men, and I questioned them about the Jewish remnant that survived the exile, and also about Jerusalem. They said to me, “Those who survived the exile and are back in the province are in great trouble and disgrace. The wall of Jerusalem is broken down, and its gates have been burned with fire.” When I heard these things, I sat down and wept. For some days I mourned and fasted and prayed before the God of heaven.” (Nehemiah 1:1-3; NIV)
Nehemiah was willing to birth a burden in prayer when he heard about the broken down walls and gates in Jerusalem. For some days He mourned, fasted and prayed before the Lord. God answered Nehemiah’s prayers and gave him favor with the king so that he could answer the call to rebuild and restore the wall. He faced opposition and overcame because He was a man of prayer who held fast to the Lord His God.
“So, the wall was completed on the twenty-fifth of Elul, in fifty-two days. When all our enemies heard about this, all the surrounding nations were afraid and lost their self-confidence, because they realized that this work had been done with the help of our God.” (Nehemiah 6:15-16; NIV)
The Lord is seeking gap standers for this nation. Are you willing to birth a burden in prayer for each state to see the manifested presence of God come in our land?

Prayer:
“O Lord, God of heaven, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and obey his commands, let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servants are praying before you day and night for this nation, the people of America. I confess the sins we Americans, including myself and my father’s house, have committed against you. We have acted very wickedly toward you. We have not obeyed the commands, decrees, and laws you gave your servant Moses. “Remember the instruction you gave your servant Moses, saying, ‘If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations, but if you return to me and obey my commands, then even if your exiled people are at the farthest horizon, I will gather them from there and bring them to the place I have chosen as a dwelling for my Name.’ “We are your servants and your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand. O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of this your servant and to the prayer of your servants who delight in revering your name. Father, we acknowledge and come into agreement with your kingdom plan and purposes for our nation and the state of Delaware. We ask that you plumb line Delaware in your righteousness. We call Delaware into the original intent of her birthright and destiny as ordained by Almighty God. Delaware, we bless you as “The First State” bringing a firstfruits offering of liberty and independence to America. You are known as the “Cradle of Methodism”. We declare that you are reconnected to your roots of revival. Let the breaker anointing arise within you Delaware to break spiritual impasse off this nation. Lord, we celebrate the victory vote in the Methodist Denomination this week upholding the Traditional Plan that holds to the foundational truths of the Bible. Lord let your revival glory fire breakout in Delaware and spread throughout our nation. Lord, rebuild your wall of righteousness around this nation and restore the gates of this nation and the state of Delaware. In Jesus Name, Amen.
