From the desk of Steve Shultz:
This word by John Sielski is short and to the point. We, as a united Body, need to pray fervently for our nation in this hour. We're overdue for another great awakening and many have been saying it's the time and hour for the biggest we've seen yet.
Also, would you do me a favor? Please help us keep sending you words by buying as many prophetic items as you are able to from the Elijah List at this link: www.elijahshopper.com. You might save a buck by buying it online through Amazon, but you'll help us build the Kingdom more effectively if you buy things through us. Will you consider that "proposal"? Thank you for supporting us!

Lord, Will You At This Time Restore Again the Kingdom to Our Country?
The exact same politically charged issue which divided, or circumcised, and kept away over 380 people from remaining in the upper room at Jerusalem to wait for the Promise of the Father (500 who saw Jesus at the same time – 380 = 120 on Pentecost) is the exact same politically charged issue which now is, and will be dividing, or circumcising, and keeping away many from not only receiving this same Promise of the Father, but also from flowing in their divine inheritance – their land of milk and honey in Christ Jesus.
Acts 1:6 "Lord, will You at this time restore again the Kingdom to Israel (or, insert your own country's name here)?"
Imagine being one of the chosen, "lucky 500+" who had the privilege and honor of witnessing the bodily resurrected Christ Himself; yet because you are a political zealot, your preeminent interest while seeing Him is whether or not He will strip the reigns of authority and control out of the hands of Rome (the foreign, yet present governing power), and restore those reigns of authority and control back into the hands of your own natural government. Sound familiar?
Notice Jesus' response to His disciples' political concerns in the next verses: "It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in His own power... But [then, almost as if Jesus is ignoring their question] you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth."
Was there a falling away? Yes, there was! Will there be a falling away? Yes, there will! See, hear, and understand: Over 380 political zealots deemed the resurrected Christ's answer to their politically charged question – to be both inappropriate and unacceptable!
1 Corinthians 15:3-6 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures: and that He was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: after that, He was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
Acts 1:12-15 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a Sabbath day's journey. And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James. These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brethren. And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)...

John and Kelly Sielski reside just outside of Reading, Pennsylvania. They are called together by God "to reconnect the hearts of people back to the heart of the Father." This is their passionate desire and ministry focus. They have co-pastored Today's Voice Christian Fellowship in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania since July of 1999. John began his prophetic journey in the Lord as a child. After being given two days to live, he was healed supernaturally of an incurable auto-immune disease. As a guitarist, John also now writes his own songs which are complimentary to the love message that both he and his wife share. Since December of 2007, John and Kelly have been writing "Today's Voice" – a daily prophetic word and teaching via the internet, which has been published in over 50 countries.
