The U. S. Reformation Prayer Network has implemented a strategy whereby in each week of the year a different state is highlighted for prayer by all the nation in the order in which they joined the union. The initiative is called “Root 52” because it is a 52-week prayer strategy to bring the nation back to its covenantal roots.
The first two weeks encompassed all fifty states standing together in covenant fasting and praying in agreement for our national leadership and government to walk in Truth and in the fear of the Lord. Then we began our fifty state initiative with Delaware , the first state to join the union.
Virginia was the tenth state to join the union and our designated week is March 19 – 26. During that week of prayer and fasting over Virginia , there will be a focus on the governmental leadership, the seven mountains or gates, the founding documents, prophetic words, and covenantal roots. The gates of prayer include business, government, education, military, media, arts and entertainment, family, religion and church. Thousands across the state and nation will be joining in with us in prayer and fasting that week for God to move mightily in these areas.
We are encouraging churches, prayer leaders, houses of prayer, and ministries throughout Virginia to unite in corporate prayer and fasting throughout that week for our commonwealth.
In Hebrew, the United States is translated “Artzot Ha-Brit,” which means “lands of covenant.” Virginia is known as the “ Covenant Root State .” If we will covenant together as the body of Christ, we have an opportunity to turn the battle at the gates. We know that the Lord is faithful and He has a plan for good and not for evil; to give us a hope and a future and an expected end. Let us bow together and war together and stand together for the soul of Virginia and our nation.
