About a year ago I heard Dr. Lance Wallnau speak on the 7 Mountains Mandate. You can see the video here:
The experience I had listening to him was like the 1st time heard Bill Johnson speak in 2004, my mouth fell open and I thought to myself, “Wow, what did he just say!” Very deep intelligent men of God.
So why am I bringing this up here on an Prophetic Words and Intercession Website? Because I believe that these Seven Mountains are part of what we need to be interceding for here in our region for breakthrough revival and habitation.
The original mandate was given to Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade and Loren Cunningham, founder of Youth with a Mission in 1979 by the Lord. The message was that if we, Christian, are to impact any nation for Jesus Christ, then we would have to affect the seven spheres, or mountains of society that are the pillars of any society.
These seven mountains are:
1) Business
2) Government
3) Media
4) Arts
5) Education
6) The Family
7) Religion/Church
On a local level, Southern Oregon, the same holds true. As time goes on, I’ll bring more on these and try to catch News Articles related to these seven mountains so that we can be praying with understanding and strategies targeting these areas of our culture.
Honestly I don’t know what that is going to look like, but I’m open to any of your comments or weblinks that might point us in the right direction.
