What a testimnony to the power of prayer!

Concerted prayer in Great Britain during WWII is credited with the ultimate overthrowing of the Third Reich.

Brad FenichelBrad Fenichel, founder of Saddle Mountain Communications, has republished the WWII book The Big Ben Minute, by Andrew Dakers, because he feels it is extremely relevant for today's world

In the preface to the book, Fenichel quotes a high Nazi official under post-war interrogation saying, "During the war, you had a secret weapon for which we could find no counter-measure… but it was very powerful… the 'Silent Minute.'"

Big BenIndeed, in Britain during WWII, everyone reportedly stopped to pray when the Big Ben chimes would ring at 9 p.m., and Fenichel hopes his "Minutemen" movement will also see Americans praying likewise at 9 p.m. Eastern Time every day.

Referring to the upcoming National Day of Prayer, Fenichel said, "Let the National Day of Prayer be our opening volley, followed by daily, concerted appeals to Heaven."

"I don't want to project my agenda about what needs to happen in this nation," he added. "I think each of us can search in our hearts and immediately write down at least a half-dozen major things that need to happen in this nation for a turnaround. As God reveals to us what to pray for, let's all pray for it. I feel that it's never been more critical than now."

"Our nation is at a turning point," he concluded. "I have hope. I'm not one of the doomsday people that say our nation is gone. I believe we can turn it around if we all get praying, but it has to start with the people of God."
