District of ColumbiaThe Spirit of the Lord initiated the call to visit every state when I [Chuck Pierce] was flying into Washington, D.C., in October 2002. Likewise, the Lord also told Dutch Sheets, while he was flying into Washington, D.C., for the meetings, to go to all 50 states. The Lord began to speak several other things to me. He said: “Pray for 17 days. Declare that the victory plan and strategy is secured. If you have My covenant desire in your heart, you will go forth in victory.” There were four issues that I believe caused the Lord to speak to me regarding these 17 days of corporate, focused prayer:
1. President Bush and the Cabinet needed to gain clear wisdom, timing, and direction for the war ahead.
2. Pastor Dutch Sheets, who was with me, received a tremendous burden for the judicial system.
3. The sniper who was randomly and rampantly bringing havoc in the D.C., Virginia, Maryland area needed to be found. The Lord said if we would pray for 17 days and declare victory, the sniper would be found. [The sniper was found by the end of the 17 days]
4. A manifestation of a new level of provision for us to move God’s covenant plans forward in the future was necessary.
“Protect, protect, protect that which is being planted in the Spirit now so that the darkness and the watchers in the night cannot uproot that which I am putting in now. You will overthrow that force from the outside that will uproot. So root now, protect, and watch the sprout occur. Do not be confused by that which will be flying through the air throughout the summer months of this particular city. For it will be like vultures in combat over this city. But they will not be able to remove this word. Even though the locust would come to devour you, I will restore. I have a restorative plan to not allow the locust to eat the crop where the seeds are being planted now. My restorative plan is being planted deep. Do not let the deceiver remove My restorative plan. Plant deep now! You will have victory, so you will have victory over those locust.”
