WASHINGTON, (christiansunite.com) -- As Christians gather in stadiums across America on Saturday 26 April for a national day of prayer and repentance, under the umbrella of 'ReignDown USA,' GOD TV will be in Washington, DC to broadcast the event's main draw- card direct from the National Mall.The US capital, where GOD TV has studios near the White House, will be abuzz with believers from many different denominations as they come together to worship and pray, and the four-hour broadcast will be televised LIVE at 6pm (EST) throughout the USA on GOD TV (DIRECTV 365) as well as internationally to nearly half a billion people.
ReignDown USA is a broad coalition of Christians who have a vision for believers in every State to humbly seek God's presence and forgiveness so that His mercy would reign free across the nation, bringing healing and restoration. It is headed up by veteran Lutheran minister Walt Kallestad and his daughter Shawn-Marie Cole, who personally received a powerful vision from the Lord of Christians rallying together to cry out for God's mercy upon America.
This is in keeping with 2 Chronicles 7:14: "...and if My people, My God-defined people, respond by humbling themselves, praying, seeking My presence, and turning their backs on their wicked lives, I'll listen from Heaven, forgive their sins, and restore their land to health" (The Message version).
ReignDown USA is supported by many high profile ministries and churches including Prayer Watch International; the Presidential Prayer Team; Congressional Prayer Caucus; and the Awakening America Alliance. Top US recording artist Michael W Smith will lead worship during the broadcast and prayers will be said by many different ministers including Cindy Jacobs of Generals International and Lou Engle of TheCall.
"The USA is entering a time of desperation for our Lord Jesus Christ," said Walt Kallestad "We've witnessed firsthand the threat of terrorism, natural disaster, broken marriages, moral depletion, denominational division and denying Christ as the center of everything we do. The time has come to repent and put God back in the center of our lives, our relationships and our nation.
"We are so pleased that GOD TV will be broadcasting ReignDown USA LIVE which will allow the broadest possible coverage of this event so that the entire Body of Christ around the world can unite simultaneously in worship and prayer as we lift up this nation."
Prayers during the four-hour ReignDown broadcast will include intercession for the President and future presidents, as well as prayers for the US Congress and Senate and judges serving in the Supreme Court, governors, mayors, state employees, pastors, teachers and other leaders, ending off with prayer for one another.
"As a ministry GOD TV is committed to praying for America, the president and for revival." said GOD TV co-founder, Wendy Alec. "There is enough power in the Church today to change the destinies of our nations, and so we encourage viewers across the world to tune in to ReignDown USA as we humble ourselves and pray together corporately. As we come into agreement, we will see breakthrough in the great nation of America."
