About 8 years ago the Lord spoke to me and said, “I have enough people above ground, but I have very few people underground. Would you be willing to go underground for Me and do some work?” I immediately said, “I would be honored to do anything you need Lord.” 

A friend of mine, once said, a healed land is a healed people. The Hebrew people understand the land, they are not just a nation, they are a nation, a people and a land. The connection is so tight, it is inseparable. As Americans we do not have this understanding, but the Lord has taught me how much He loves the people and the land called America and so do I. 

Going underground meant redigging wells according to Genesis 26; salting rivers according to 2 Kings 2; pouring oil on the soil and salting the land (very rarely) according to Genesis 19; and releasing the sound of salvation for the nation by blowing the shofar according to Joel 2. All of these things and more was God bring healing to the land He called me to preach to called America. 

I am in Mississippi right now and right before we crossed into the city we would be staying in, I got a phone call to pray, then the next thing we saw was the Pearl River. The very river that flows through this city. We got out of the car, blew the shofar and declared this city will recognize Jesus as the pearl of great price. This 444 mile long river, was tuned to the frequency of heaven through the sound of the shofar, then we salted the river declaring neither death nor barrenness any longer in this location and region. 

This river is the border for Mississippi and Louisiana of which we are literally 10 miles from the border. Then after a powerful meeting outside under the stars as the glory of God wafted into that location as we worshipped, we stopped at a store on the way home. Then after young people in the store said, be careful at your hotel, for the gangs in this city are mean. They told us to be careful multiple times. 

God knew about this city and what they needed, we didn’t, but now the Pearl River is salted, the sound of the shofar has been blown and whether they know it or not, their land is being healed. What was run by gangs of people who wanted to cause harm will now be run by the kingdom of God that comes to heal, save and deliver. We are called to heal the land. 

Psalm 115:16 “The heavens belong to our God; they are his alone, but he has given us the earth and put us in charge.”
