 Through a series of supernatural happenings, Jerry and Sandra Murphy became the owners of 444 acres in Poplar Bluff, Missouri: the address--444 County Road 543; the elevation at the giant cross on the property--444 feet; number of years from when Jerry was handed the key to the property--44. Through the years, as Jerry prayed Isaiah 44:4 over this farm named "Moriah" (the mountain in Scripture on which the cross occurred), he believed a generation would one day gather there to cry out to God for awakening in America.
In September of 2009 Lou Engle and I stood on this property praying about using it for just such a purpose. It is very hard to describe the feeling that overtakes a person as he or she steps onto this beautiful land--God's presence truly hovers over it. As Lou and I prayed, dreaming of thousands of people gathering there before the Lord, Lou, knowing nothing about the 444's, suddenly began to exclaim, "this is Isaiah 44:4!"
 God is indeed coming to Poplar Bluff, Missouri this summer to fulfill Isaiah 44:3-5, "I will pour out water on the thirsty…I will pour out my Spirit on our offspring…they will spring up like poplars by streams…one will say, 'I am the Lord's'…and another will write on his hand, 'Belonging to the Lord'…"
In his day, John the Baptist became a "voice crying out in the wilderness, preparing the way" for the Lord. It is significant that God required John's generation to leave the comforts of home and meet Him in the wilderness. There is something significant about "unplugging" from our modern conveniences, humbling ourselves and, with undistracted devotion, seeking only Him. Join us as we do just that at Wilderness Outcry. Be a part of God recapturing His dream for America. I assure you this is His idea--and He will come!
It's not a camp, it's a consecration!
