We’re called by
the Lord to occupy the land. In 2009, given the course of our nation,
there is no city more critical to occupy than our Nations Capital!
Recently the Lord directed us to go to the White House & wait for
His strategy. For two days we sat in front of the White House, observed
what was happening in the natural while paying close attention to the
atmosphere. The uncertainty and confusion of the day has its epicenter
in Washington.
The church must occupy the land! We are calling for ‘boots on the ground’ in DC. The strategy is simple yet critical.
- Each state will select and send a small team of mature believers who
love God, love this nation & know how to pray with Kingly authority.
- Each State will be responsible for one week which includes the prayer
team on the ground in DC for a minimum of a 3 days and a State wide,
coordinated prayer surge for our Nation.
- Each team will have in their possession the ‘US Capital City
Reformation Torch’ which symbolizes the fire of God expanding in all
spheres of National culture & in every State.
- This will be a coordinated, synergistic Prayer Union involving representation from the Nation.
- We’ll have an online map showing what states are involved, what dates
are available, frequent updates posted from the teams in DC so the
nation can pray in agreement.
- Frequent updates from leaders in the Nation.
The official launch of the “Convergence in DC - A 50 State Strategy”
will be during our National Conference on Capitol Hill August 6 - 8.

IGFA, on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., trains believers serving in the governmental sphere to maximize their influence for the Kingdom of God. Our mission is to build relationships with those known as ‘staffers’ (apx 20,000, predominately in their 20’s & 30’s who serve in the offices of our elected officials), equip them with a Biblical World View while helping them fulfill the call God has placed on their lives.
In recent weeks we’ve seen several important pieces come into place that will allow the IGFA to reach many with top level training. Here are a few:
- A mature core team of staffers have gathered and are serving as the apostolic council to help build the ministry.
- Well known & respected Christian leader Dennis Peacocke will be one of the primary teachers.
- A couple who recently retired from the U.S. Army, were last stationed at the Pentagon & live in Maryland are now part of the team.
- A businessman/Pastor gave a generous $6,000.00 gift to help IGFA move forward in this pivotal moment for the nation.
- As the training center progresses it will offer weekly sessions by some of the Nations top leaders addressing key issues of our day.
God is saying the church must move trans-generationally and with this team we span 3 generations.
We believe in the future that thousands of staff members, many elected officials & even those serving at high level positions in the government will have been equipped through the IGFA.
