MIDNIGHT OIL PRAYER PROJECT JUNE 2-22. Friends, your lamps need fresh oil! And many arenas where initial breakthroughs have led to stalemates need to turn. From stalemate to checkmate! Lets remove the remaining blockages to breakthrough. Lets engage in fasting and prayer. Beginning on Turnaround Tuesday! 

DEAR FRIENDS,
A JESUS REVOLUTION swept through the nation back in the 1970s. The relentless prayers of mothers and fathers redirected one of the most restless, radical, rebellious and innovative generations to ever walk the planet to the Lord. They didn’t “go back to the Lord” in the traditional sense. No, they stepped forward to the Lord, leaving behind the rituals of religion and embracing genuine encounters with the Lord. 

Worship changed. Prayer changed. Missions changed Services changed. The world profoundly changed. 

Back in 2023, Cindy Jacobs prophesied to us that a Jesus Revolution would again be ignited—and that we would have a role to play. To paraphrase her prophecy, “When the Spirit of Elijah Tour comes to the United States, it will ignite the next phase of the Jesus Revolution!”

This word was a follow-up to Cindy’s first revolutionary word to us. She prophesied that we would be “Spiritual Paul Reveres, holding out the burning lamp, going from city to city and instead of saying the British are coming, you will be saying ‘the Lord is coming!’”

Well, on April 18, 2026, these words converged. On the anniversary of Paul Revere’s ride, over the 250th anniversary of American independence, we launched the Spirit of America Tour in Faneuil Hall Boston. Known as the Cradle of Liberty, it was the very hall where Revere, Hancock, Warren, John Adams, Sam Adams and many others met to ignite the American Revolution.

And very intentionally, the tour we launched is the American counterpart of the Spirit of Elijah Tour, with all the same leaders. 

There’s no turning back. A Jesus Revolution has been ignited. The nation and world have already changed, and great things are yet ahead.

Visitation on a Midnight Watch
CHUCK PIERCE PROPHESIED during our Faneuil Hall gathering that, as of April 18, the anniversary of Paul Revere’s ride, America now enters a midnight watch. He was given the passage beginning in Matthew 14:22 where Jesus appears to the disciples during a perilous midnight watch, with storms everywhere. He calmed the turbulent waters that had nearly capsized their boat. 

Remember Jesus was literally leading a revolution—a spiritual revolution which would realign, transform and even forever redeem humanity. 

His disciples were the founders chosen by Him to establish the movement. And they were about to capsize. 

Have you ever felt that way? I have. More times than I can count.  So glad we serve a God who walks on the turbulent water for the rescue!

To our continual astonishment, our friend Rachel had just painted a version of this very experience with the Lord. With Jesus walking on water towards Donald Trump in the Oval Office. Chuck looked at the painting and exclaimed, “that’s exactly what I saw!”

To say the least, we took this as confirmation. Jesus is coming to America, and even to President Trump, to ignite His revolution. He is coming on a midnight watch. 

And on May 17, just a month after the April 18 word, on the evening of America’s rededication to God, we were honored to launch a nightly prayer watch culminating at the midnight hour. 

When I say “we,” I mean a threefold cord of ministries—Lamplighter Ministries, 24-7 Prayernet with Sherry Eifler, and ROAR House with Matt and Kimberly Ennis. They have done an incredible job building a solid foundation for the watch. 

America’s Big Ben Moment has Arrived
And if you want some company for your Big Ben Minute prayer time, all you have to do is dial into the watch! Because every night since we began, we have engaged in America’s Big Ben Minute at 9pm sharp. We are now starting each watch with a Big Ben Minute to accommodate intercessors from other time zones.

A SHOUT OUT TO ALL WHO ARE ENGAGING! The watches are already becoming busy. The flow of prayer has been powerful. And revelatory. Thank you Holy Spirit! 

Sometimes it takes a prayer watch to actually gain the urgency to pray. Because this kind of clarity cannot be inspired by circumstances alone. It can only come by the Holy Spirit. 

And as we’ve been praying, I have come to see what Lynnie Harlow was conveying when she warned this January that America is in a “Big Ben Moment” requiring a “Big Ben Minute” of prayer. I can no longer hide from the urgency I sense in this season. Over Israel especially.

From Stalemate to Checkmate
Friends, it’s time to gain your fresh oil for the midnight hour. Again we’ll share more on this Tuesday. So join us for 21 days of watchman prayer with fasting. It’s time to identify and remove all remaining blockages to breakthrough, so we can move from stalemate to checkmate! 

Without question the Iran crisis needs to move from a perpetual stalemate into a checkmate. But wait, there’s more! What areas in your life have you found yourself at an impasse? Are you running short of oil in your devotional life? Maybe you’ve found yourself at a relational impasse? What does breakthrough in each case look like? 

Lets get on it! By the way, the declaration “from stalemate to checkmate” was birthed in the midst of Friday night’s prayer watch. May it describe your journey in the days ahead. 

Come on. This summer, be a revolutionary. No King but Jesus!
