DEAR FRIENDS,
FIRST—REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR 2-22—The Turnaround Tuesday Global Launch! Turnaround Tuesdays is God’s summons to prayer for a generation to return to Jesus. You will experience a turnaround! You will be equipped. You will receive impartation. You will have time to connect. We believe your life, and even the life of this nation, will change.
BUT DON’T WAIT FOR THE CONFERENCE. Begin now! Take time today to pray for your spiritual children and natural children. Decree also that God’s Eliakims arise to positions of leadership in their spheres. Remember Eliakim’s greatest qualification was that he was a FATHER to the house of Judah—the nation—and the inhabitants of Jerusalem—the capital city.
Amen!
Discovering the Power of God’s Turnaround
(Adapted from forthcoming book Turnaround Decrees)
Jolene and I have experienced miracles as we pursued God’s turnarounds, at His direction. It all began in 2014 when we were directed by Holy Spirit to a passage of Scripture we have since come to call “the Turnaround Verdict.” We gathered at Faneuil Hall in Boston on 7-22 to receive this Daniel 7:22 verdict. Historic Faneuil Hall is actually where many founders met to mobilize towards the American Revolution. And the gathering proved revolutionary for us. The trajectory for us personally, as well as for the nation, began to shift dramatically from that date forward. From Daniel 7:
I kept watching, and that horn was waging war with the saints and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed in favor of the saints of the Highest One, and the time arrived when the saints took possession of the kingdom (Daniel 7:21-22).
The “Turnaround Verdict” conveys a dramatic change of events. One moment the saints are being utterly defeated, while the next moment they are being released to possess the Kingdom. Wow does that sound familiar to our world.
The process shown—approaching the Lord as the Ancient of Days, and securing His verdict in your favor—is central to unleashing the potential of Heaven’s turnaround in your life and sphere.
So many miraculous interventions occurred immediately following the release of this verdict. Churches have come alive. Broken lives have been repaired. Physical healings have occurred. Lost people have discovered, or rediscovered, the power of their Redeemer. Longstanding promises seemingly stuck in a perpetual void have suddenly come to birth. The faithfulness of our God has become His real-time handiwork in the midst of everyday life, for all to see. Even government has shifted by God’s hand in an unmistakeable way, right before our eyes in Washington DC.
But by the grace of God, the greatest turnaround we’ve yet experienced actually came not to the nation or to the White House, but to our own house. It answered the deepest longings of our hearts for our son and daughter. And it framed much of this new expression of the movement He is initiating in our midst.
Many of you have already heard my son’s testimony, when it was shared by Lou Engle at the Global Prophetic Summit last November. In fall of 2014, shortly after the “Turnaround Verdict” was first released at Faneuil Hall, our hearts became strongly resolved to pursue His national turnaround. A gentle rebuke redirected our path. Before we even sought to attain His national turnaround, the Lord wanted us to prioritize family turnarounds. Malachi 4:6 makes this priority so clear.
“He will turn the hearts of the fathers back to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and strike the land with complete destruction” (Malachi 4:6).
So on Christmas Day 2014, we started a year-long project with our Lamplighter Family called “Turnaround Tuesday.” Every Tuesday was set aside for contending prayer, framed at God’s invitation by Daniel 7:22. We prayed fervently for our own children and for the children of those connected with us for the Lord’s turnaround to prevail.
And a genuine Christmas miracle broke forth exactly one year to the day we began. For discretion’s sake I won’t go into too many details. But our son Jonathan had fallen away from the Lord during his final few years in college. In early December 2015 our son Jonathan contacted us. For the first time in years, he wanted to spend his birthday and Christmas together.
And on Christmas morning in 2015, again a year to the date we first began to pray, Jonathan experienced a dramatic visitation from the Lord. Jesus Himself appeared to him in a vision. With hands outstretched and open arms, the Son of God compelled our son to “return home!”
You already know how Jesus rolls. The miracle we were all praying for became just the beginning of the turnaround story. We’ll save that for later.
But Jesus wants you to know that He loves your child, your son or daughter, even more than you. He will withhold nothing in pursuit of their hearts, their souls, their lives. Your part and mine is to pray. More accurately, to contend in prayer until the miracle you and God both want is manifested before your eyes, just as it was with us.
So lets train, lets pursue, lets contend together for a generation to break free and arise to God’s true destiny. And join us on 2-22-2022 for teaching, impartation and prayer as we launch!
OPEN DOOR PROJECT! 2-2 thru 2-22. Lets join together in prayer as the Lamplighter community in preparation for the turnarounds God is bringing forth in this season, including the launch of Turnaround Tuesday. A door of access stands open!
TURNAROUND TUESDAY! Focused intercession for sons and daughters as well as for God’s Eliakims to arise across the land (Isaiah 22:22). Take the day to pray!

DEAR FRIENDS,
FIRST—THANK YOU FOR ENGAGING in Turnaround Tuesday. Lets contend together for our spiritual sons and daughters, and our natural sons and daughters! And plan to join us on 2-22-22 for the global launch from Trinity Church Dallas!
SECOND—WE ARE CELEBRATING A DECADE IN DC! It was a decade ago this weekend that we settled into an apartment in Pentagon City, across from the Pentagon and just across the Potomac from Washington DC.
HAVE YOU EVER HAD YOUR LIFE UPENDED BY A PROPHET? Our lives certainly have been. Rick and Patricia Ridings both received the same prophetic directive from the Lord on a flight from LA to Washington DC. They cautiously brought up the subject in the car on the way to a dedication service for what became Davids Tent DC. Both Rick and Patricia felt that Joleen and I were being summoned to Washington DC… immediately!
Further, they both felt we were to begin by coming alongside Jason Hershey and his house of prayer project. The word was given in mid- January 2012, and we picked up our stakes and moved within a few short weeks.
Jolene and I were expecting to be gone from “home” for maybe six months at the most. Instead Washington DC became home. And it’s been an incredible journey ever since!
Turnaround Preceding the TURNAROUND
We have found that many times the turnaround in our sphere is preceded by a dramatic turnaround in our own lives. Remember this is Turnaround Tuesday. What the Ridings prophesied has largely come to pass. We have seen a dramatic turnaround in Washington DC and the nation. And by the grace of God, a decade later we are seeing grace released to complete the turnaround. His way!
Tomorrow as we begin the Open Door project, we will share more on the prophetic words that were given by the Ridings in conjunction with our sudden move.
The Open Door
But for now, our hearts are full of gratitude to Jesus for opening a door to Washington DC that has enriched our lives so greatly, and in process enriched the nation. We are grateful for the faithful, amazing friends we have come to know since connecting here. We are grateful for our home group, a wild bunch of high-level saints of God dedicated to seeing Jesus move in Washington DC.
And of course we are grateful for you, the ever-vigilant Lamplighter family. Your love, collaboration and generosity of heart have kept us strong, kept us advancing, and kept God’s lamp shining in our midst.
All that said, Jolene and I are looking forward to breaking new ground ahead with you, including engaging in the Open Door Project through 2-22, culminating with the Turnaround Tuesday launch.
From Washington to Washington to Jerusalem… No King but Jesus!
“And this one is really key for today. The door opens to the place where real-time revelation, and even end-time revelation is suddenly unsealed right in front of you”—Jolene
TURNAROUND TUESDAY—The Lord is moving in breakthrough for your children! Each Tuesday we are contending for God’s destiny to be released in the lives of sons and daughters. We are also asking the Lord to raise up His Eliakims as fathers and mothers to this generation. Please take time to pray!
CALL WEDNESDAY! 9PM ET. Phone: (425) 436-6287 access code 552-690. Use *6 to mute/unmute. Invite your friends to join us. Pre-broadcast prayer at 8:45pm!

DEAR FRIENDS,
IT’S A JOY to announce the global launch of Turnaround Tuesdays, with a special one-day conference on 2-22, 2022! We will share more details soon. But for now, mark your calendars and come join us!
Turnaround Tuesdays is God’s summons to prayer for a generation to return to Jesus. You will experience a turnaround!
We are honored to return to Trinity Church in Cedar Hill TX, where the movement was spontaneously birthed during the Global Prophetic Summit hosted by Mike and Cindy Jacobs last November. Lou Engle actually changed his message to birth this movement. I can still hear the roar that erupted across the auditorium as we began to contend in prayer! It was an unforgettable moment.
Mike and Cindy are returning to join us for the launch, with Chris Mitchell Jr, Becca Greenwood, and a special message by Lou Engle. You will be equipped. You will receive impartation. You will have time to connect. We believe your life, and even the life of this nation, will change!
We had an amazing conversation with Trinity pastors Jim and Becky Hennesy recently. Both were very strongly impacted by Turnaround Tuesday. Turns out that for an entire year before, they focused the Trinity church on family restoration, including fierce prayer for sons and daughters.
And since the beginning of the year they have been leading in fasting and turnaround prayer every Tuesday! with a primary focus on breakthroughs for sons and daughters of this generation—coming to Jesus and gaining the fullness of their destiny and purpose in life.
JOLENE AND I ARE DREAMING OF CHURCHES across the nation and world similarly engaging in Turnaround Tuesday prayer! I believe we are going to see spontaneous groups coming together in person, on video and conference calls, in homes and churches and even offices to engage in intercession for our spiritual and natural children. Because this movement has been initiated by the Father for every son and daughter. It’s time for you and I to engage!
“He will turn the hearts of the fathers back to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and strike the land with complete destruction” (Malachi 4:5-6)
NOTE: Jolene and I were hoping to get this posting to you Friday. A last-minute push to finish the “Turnaround Decrees” book kept us both engaged through yesterday. That said, it seems only appropriate to announce this global launch of Turnaround Tuesday on an actual Tuesday 🙂 No King but Jesus!

DEAR JUSTICE CONTENDERS,
FIRST—THANK YOU FOR GIVING! Every Hanukkah the Lamplighter family celebrates with special gifts to the ministry. Jolene and I want to thank everyone who already responded with such generously of heart! Thanks to you we are well on our way to the goal we feel the Lord gave us, believing God for $22,000 to launch us into 2022.
The funds will go such a long way towards funding our FIRST-EVER ASSISTANT, so needed as we move forward on this Turnaround Tuesday project as well as the upcoming 2022 Glory Train tour, media upgrades and many other projects. Above all your continued gifts help us remain and thrive in Washington DC. We are grateful!
Jolene and I were actually married on the first day of Hanukkah—when our unity candle supernaturally lit. Remember the miracle that defines Hanukkah—where the Maccabees relit the menorah to reconsecrate the Temple to the Lord. They only had enough oil for a day. Yet fresh oil supernaturally flowed for the lamp to blaze for eight days! We feel strongly that, as you sow into the release of fresh provision for Lamplighter, the Lord is unlocking for you fresh oil, by His Spirit and in the natural, to advance you through 2022. We are grateful to shine together in this season! TO CONTRIBUTE CLICK HERE
The Hanukkah Hearings
At the forefront of our prayer project, which runs through 12-12, is the Supreme Court hearing on legalized abortion, which will be held tomorrow. Ever since September 11 of this year, Exodus 2 has been highlighted by the Lord for the hearing. It is as though Heaven’s Court is convening over this same period.
“And the sons of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry for help because of their bondage ascended to God. So God heard their groaning; and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob” (Exodus 2:23-24).
This passage at first seems truly disconcerting. Why did it take 400 years of slavery and abuse for the Lord to “hear” the cries of His people? Noise-cancelling headphones? A lack of caring engagement on God’s part?
Neither. Because that’s just not who our God is! The word “heard” in this context, the Hebrew word shama, refers to a courtroom hearing. God brought the groanings of each of His covenant people over 400 years of bondage into a courtroom hearing. Heaven’s Court reviewed each case. And the Lord as judge remembered His covenant. The Hebrew word for “remember” is “zakar,” and it means to take to heart and then set a course of action.
That’s exactly what a judge does in court. And that’s exactly what God did. He set in motion the miraculous deliverance of His covenant people from the subjugation of Pharaoh’s bondage. LET MY PEOPLE GO!
The question must be asked—why after 400 years? Because it was during this time that Pharaoh mandated the firstborn of Israel be cast into the Nile River. Exodus 1:22 records this. Abortion and infanticide were both legalized, by the way, by then-governor Andrew Cuomo of New York on 1-22, 2019. Then came some major shakings.
I believe we are in an Exodus 2 moment in America over abortion on a national level. I believe Heaven’s Court will even be tangibly perceived within the US Supreme Court as the Lord makes His own case very plain. The testimony of Heaven will be joined by the testimony of the land. And I even believe the cries, the groanings of those who have suffered, even whose lives were cut short in the womb, will be heard.
However the Court decides, know this. As Daniel 7:22 conveys, Heaven’s Court prevails unto God’s turnaround His way. A freedom movement is accelerating.
Vision—God Redeems the Bride, and Child of Promise!
A ruthless enemy is seeking to force an abortion of God’s covenant purposes in America. Meanwhile the Lord desires to grant a new birth of freedom for our covenant nation.
God’s passionate intentions on this are pictured in a prophetic experience back in 1996. It remains the most impactful of my life, and defines the overarching mission of Lamplighter Ministries to this day.
I was praying over Provincetown, the historic Cape Cod harbor where the Pilgrims wrote the Mayflower Compact, when I had the vision. For context, a local pastor had asked me to seek the Lord with him over a recurring dream. He saw himself prophesying “LIVE!” to someone in a large casket. Each time he expected a resurrection. Yet each time, nothing happened.
Immediately when he shared the dream, I somehow saw a vision of what the pastor was dreaming. It was like I was entered into it. Suddenly the hand of the Lord came to the casket and thrust it open. His hand then pulled out what looked to be an Egyptian mummy. Slowly and carefully He began to unwrap the grave clothes, beginning at the top. When the white bands were removed below the eyes, I saw that it was a woman. And as the cloths were removed from around her chest, to my astonishment there was a baby nestled in her bosom.
I knew immediately the woman represented the bride of Christ in the nation. And not only did the Lord resurrect the bride, but also the child—the covenantal heritage of the Bridegroom and His bride!
Immediately I heard these words. “Where you have felt like a widow, abandoned by Me and far from My hand of provision, instead I am bringing you into a season of intimacy with Me, and abundance from My hand, and indeed I have saved the best wine for last!”
Beloved, we have not yet gone past the expiration date of this vision. The Lord is still after our children. He is still after the preservation and perpetuation of our covenantal heritage. He is the God of the turnaround. And He will be faithful to bring it His way, for His glory. The best wine is saved for last!
But to gain this new birth of freedom, all that holds the bride and her child in the casket must be overcome. We must shift from a covenant with death empowering a culture of death to a covenant of life empowering a culture of life. Covenant with death and hell annulled! (Isaiah 28:14-15).
Finally, remember Isaiah 54, God’s promise that defines the turnaround for LIFE. We have entered through this time-gate. And there is truly no turning back!
CALL WEDNESDAY! 9PM ET. Conference Call: (425) 436-6287 access code 552-690. Use *6 to mute/unmute. Invite your friends to join us. Pre-broadcast prayer at 8:45pm!

DEAR FRIENDS,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Last year in 2020 we celebrated the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower Compact, committing our nation to the Lord Jesus Christ. This year marks the 400th anniversary of the first Thanksgiving! What an incredible time to worship the Lord with our families and friends.
Remember that after 400 years, God moved to bring His people out of subjugation and into freedom. I feel that this 400th anniversary has also captured His attention. This time to deliver our nation from the Pharaoh structures embedded in government and culture to drive us into the very totalitarianism He delivered His people from in Egypt. LET MY PEOPLE GO!
And it’s extraordinary how this 400th anniversary converges with both Hanukkah and the upcoming Supreme Court hearing regarding abortion. That said… not that you don’t do this anyway… but let me compel you to read this post through to the end! Because the culminating point is the most important. It’s incredible preparation for every moment of your times ahead.
The Hanukkah Hearing
Note the Dobbs v Jackson hearing on restraining abortion begins at the Supreme Court on December 1. Scholars have called this Mississippi case the strongest challenge to Roe v Wade in decades. I’m calling it “the Hanukkah Hearing” because it’s no coincidence the case will be heard by the highest court in the land OVER THE CELEBRATION OF HANUKKAH.
I promise you that Heaven’s Court is also being convened during this time. The nation is in the balance. Remember that Hanukkah marks a season of visitation. I believe we are going to receive dimensions of His verdict in the days following the hearing. Maybe this is why Lynnie Harlow saw the hand of the Lord sealing four verdicts with a signet ring over each of the four days of Revolution 2021, which is being held the week after the hearing.
You don’t want to miss it. Promise.
Of course, Jolene and I almost always host Revolution directly over Hanukkah. The Festival of Lights celebrates the victory of the Maccabees over the strongest known army of the time. A group of spiritual revolutionaries broke through the strongest army in the known world in order to take back their desolate heritage.
Just like the Maccabees, and very much like David just before he was crowned king, we are facing a fierce, defiant and determined army seeking to rob us of our covenantal heritage. This army is first targeting our children, either to take them down down or hold them captive to their hostile intentions. Either we engage as the Lord leads us, or we yield our freedoms to an extent they may never be able to be recovered. The turning point is that serious. If they can do it, we can do it!
And the good news is that a long-prophesied FREEDOM MOVEMENT is now arising by God’s hand. Across the nation parents are awakening to the reality of this decisive hour. You are engaging! The trajectory of our land is already beginning to turn. As we prophesied over Passover 2021—just as with the Exodus miracle, a RESISTANCE REVIVAL is now breaking forth!
When God Holds Court
All of which brings us to the Supreme Court hearing on December 1. The Lord has strongly emphasized to me Exodus 2 as a prototype of what He is about to bring forth on our watch.
“…The sons of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry for help because of their bondage ascended to God. So God heard their groaning; and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob” (Exodus 2:23-24).
Note that God is not hard of hearing. His ears remain finely tuned to the pleas and cries of His covenant people. So what does it mean when God heard their groaning?
The Hebrew word is Shama. And one of its most important definitions is as a COURTROOM HEARING. The Lord was about to unleash the greatest freedom movement in the history of the world. This freedom movement would bring down both the gods of Egypt and the pharaoh government tied to these principalities.
So what did He do to prepare? The Lord held court.
And He brought the accumulated groanings of His covenant people over 400 years into His courtroom as evidence demanding the verdict He was about to bring. With great attention, He heard each case. The cries of helpless children targeted for the abortion of their lives through government-mandated infanticide were heard. The mothers whose children were ripped from their arms and thrown into the Nile were heard. The fathers humiliated by the lash of the whip were heard. The economic hardships suffered by God’s covenant people were meticulously reviewed. The centuries of suffering and subjugation under governmental rulership that invoked the occult for empowerment and direction became met with the fierce justice of the Lord.
Note this. Idolatry is always at the core of subjugation. And Jesus is always on the move to bring His people into freedom. Let My people go! Or in this hour… LET MY CHILDREN GO.
In this Hanukkah Hearing, I believe the Lord Himself is going to hold court. It’s almost like Heaven’s Court will somehow be superimposed on the Supreme Court. The groanings of His people, children especially, will absolutely be heard. Occult roots will be exposed for what they are. And America will be held to account according to the commitment of our founders from the very document that gave birth to our nation, the Declaration of Independence.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Note that our founders declared that we are created. From their view Life begins at creation, not at birth. Further, they clearly conveyed that the unalienable right to LIFE is conferred at creation!
LIFE Begins at Conception! Messiah Conceived Over Hanukkah
This fact is most clearly demonstrated by God Himself. It’s no coincidence that this hearing on LIFE is being held over Hanukkah. Lets consider the significance this holiday again. According to Messianic Jewish scholars, Jesus wasn’t actually born over date we celebrate as Christmas. Instead, most likely He was born over one of the fall feasts, most likely Yom Kippur or Tabernacles.
All of which means Jesus, Light of the world, was most likely CONCEIVED OVER HANUKKAH.
You have to see this to appreciate it. Because for some 2,000 years the body of Christ has been celebrating the birth of Jesus AT HIS CONCEPTION. Just in case you’ve been wondering when God believes the right to life is conferred!
And now, in today’s convergence with Hanukkah, the 400th anniversary of Thanksgiving, and the Supreme Court hearing on abortion, the Lord is arising to establish justice over the nation. He is about to do something unprecedented among the nations once again. Pharaohs fall. A covenant people arises to LIFE. We pray our government aligns accordingly. But no matter what, this freedom movement conquers. And our nation shifts accordingly. I say, LET THERE BE LIGHT!
NO KING BUT JESUS…

DEAR FRIENDS,
TURNAROUND TUESDAY LAUNCHED GLOBALLY ON 11-11 at the Global Prophetic Summit, hosted by Mike and Cindy Jacobs. Lou Engle initiated this call in a fiery message in which he prophetically commanded the body of Christ to war for our sons and daughters. He shared the story of our son’s dramatic turnaround after a year of “Turnaround Tuesday” prayer. Cindy Jacobs called Jolene and me up to pray and seal the release.
And thanks to high level prophets representing 20 nations, as well as a global online audience, Turnaround Tuesday has instantly become a global phenomenon!
I’ll never forget the living thunder of Lou Engle’s message. “Just as Elijah stretched himself out over a lifeless child to raise the child from the dead, so we are stretching ourselves in prayer for our sons and daughters to LIVE!”
TODAY MARKS OUR FIRST TURNAROUND TUESDAY after the global launch! Lamplighter family we are grateful for your vigilant engagement in Turnaround Tuesdays since Lou and Therese Engle originally called us in mid-June. They took the time to call us personally because, in the midst of their community, they had earlier received a very specific word about “Turnaround Tuesdays” to contend for the next generation. Cheryl Amabile mentioned the Lamplighter family had been engaging in “Turnaround Tuesdays since 2014, and that my son Jonathan got radically saved one year to the date that we originally began.
And the date happened to be Christmas 2015. More on this in a moment.
This project is focused on one primary goal. We will be praying for our sons and daughters in the spirit and natural to come fully into alignment with God’s heart and destiny for them. Many will be contending for our moms and dads as well! Our dream is that Turnaround Tuesday catches fire throughout every church and prayer movement nationally and globally. It’s already begun. But please pray God’s rapid expansion!
Parental Uprising and the Jesus Revolution
America right now truly stands in the balance. Our covenantal inheritance as a nation is far more vulnerable now than most leaders care to admit. Governmental structures on a local, state and national level are seeking to capture our children through unprecedented impositions of warped morality. The most recent example is the sexual assault of a young woman in her school’s women’s restroom. The perpetrator was a biological male who identified as trans-sexual. Because of this it was covered over by school officials all the way up the ladder.
And when the girl’s parents and friends pressed to get the truth, they were literally labeled DOMESTIC TERRORISTS by the White House and DOJ.
This incident has sparked a revolution. From Virginia to California, parents across the nation are rising up. En masse!
We as a nation seem to be in a time similar to the 1960s, when new levels of sin and vileness became embraced as a cultural norm. And a generation who previously considered Judeo-Christian values normative found themselves suddenly on the precipice.
Then God broke in with a Jesus Revolution. A massive tsunami of evangelism swept in multitudes.
What sparked this Revolution? Pre-eminently, a massive uprising of prayer. Fathers and mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers, teachers and leaders fell to their faces and engaged with God over the destiny of their children. Their intercession forged a Glory pathway for revival to sweep the land.
We are in the exact same moment of history right now. Which is why it is now time nationally and globally for TURNAROUND TUESDAY.
Contending for Destiny
We cannot expect another Jesus Revolution when we only softly contend for the destinies of our children, naturally and spiritually. Once again it is time for mothers and fathers in Jesus to rise up and engage. It’s turnaround time!
Remember how the Lord highlighted Isaiah 54 earlier this year. When read through this lens, the whole chapter focuses on turnaround for the Bride and her children—for ensuing generations! Jolene and I STRONGLY SUGGEST using Isaiah 54 as a prayer guide for the project. Devour this chapter! Read it out loud. Write down the key points the Lord highlights personally to you. And pray!
“All your sons will be taught by the Lord; and the well-being (shalom) of your sons will be great!” (Isaiah 54:13)
Christmas Turnaround—When our Son Came Home
Towards this end I want to remind you of our first“Turnaround Tuesdays” project, which began seven years ago. We prayed from Christmas Day 2014 to Christmas Day 2015. As Mom and Dad to the Lamplighter family, Bill and Marlene Brubaker took the lead. We saw tremendous breakthroughs across the nation. I believe this year of contending even contributed to the massive governmental turnaround we recently experienced.
But the greatest turnarounds were actually very personal, from family to family. For us, of course, the greatest miracle was our own. On Christmas Day 2015, one year to the date from the beginning of the project, our son experienced a visitation in which the Lord Jesus Christ summoned him to “return home” to Him. This actually occurred in my father’s house in Sarasota as we celebrated Christmas as a family.
Please get this. One year to the date of the Turnaround Tuesday launch, on the day we celebrate the birth of Christ, our son was born again!
If it can happen to our son, it can happen to your sons and daughters too. Remember the Lord loves each one of them even more than you do. He can make a way!
So join us please. Take every Tuesday beginning now to pray and contend for your sons and daughters. Tell your friends in Jesus about the effort. Connect with prayer groups and start your own. Knowing that your brothers and sisters across the nation and world are contending with you. This movement is literally spreading like wildfire!
And please remember—covenant with God unlocks both glory and inheritance, personally and nationally. Truly it is time for a turnaround. NO KING BUT JESUS!
“Even the captives of the mighty man will be taken away, and the prey of a tyrant will be rescued; for I will contend with the one who contends with you, and I will save your children!” (Isaiah 49:25)
“I kept watching, and that horn was waging war with the saints and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days came and judgment was passed in favor of the [x]saints of the Highest One, and the time arrived when the saints took possession of the kingdom” (Dan. 7:22).

DEAR FRIENDS,
TURNAROUND TUESDAY LAUNCHED GLOBALLY ON 11-11 at the Global Prophetic Summit, hosted by Mike and Cindy Jacobs. Lou Engle initiated this call in a fiery message in which he prophetically commanded the body of Christ to war for our sons and daughters. He shared the story of our son’s dramatic turnaround after a year of “Turnaround Tuesday” prayer. Cindy Jacobs called Jolene and me up to pray and seal the release.
And thanks to high level prophets representing 20 nations, as well as a global online audience, Turnaround Tuesday has instantly become a global phenomenon!
Lamplighter family, we’ve been talking about the potential for this for a while now. Lou Engle called us in mid-June. Out of the middle of nowhere. As we shared in our relaunch posting, Lou and Therese had been praying that morning and received a very similar word to our “Turnaround Tuesday” mandate. When mutual friend Cheryl Amabile heard Lou describe it, she immediately referenced our Turnaround Tuesday prayer projects and the miracle salvation that accompanied it.
Then last week at the ACPE, our paths crossed in an unmistakeable, sovereign-hand-of-God kind of way. We cut out time early Wednesday morning to connect. Amazingly, just a few hours before, Lou’s wife Therese called to tell him how mutual friends had heard the Lord say to take every Tuesday to pray for their children. Like just the day before!
Can’t make this stuff up.
Lou was literally scheduled to launch the Global Prophetic Summit. And he completely shifted his message to TURNAROUND TUESDAY. Such a fiery word on the Elijah call to contend for our children and rescue them from the grip of the enemy!
Again. Very simply, you cannot make this stuff up.
Before I go on, LAMPLIGHTER FAMILY YOU HAVE BEEN THE FORERUNNERS OF THIS MOVEMENT. Not a coincidence it was birthed with Heaven’s grace—and then went global instantly! Our gratitude is immeasurable. And so is your reward from the Throne.
Now, lets do this together!
Here are three major goals to achieve together.
1. LETS CONTEND! This movement is at the core of a holy uprising by parents to rescue their children from the abhorrent dictates thrust upon them in this season. Lets engage together in fasting and prayer each Tuesday for our sons and daughters. Set your course now to engage both immediately and long-term. Pray not only for your children, but for the Turnaround Tuesday movement to flourish and expand.
Note that special “Turnaround Tuesday” calls are in the works. We are projected to begin on Tuesday, November 30, the night before the Supreme Court hearing on the Mississippi abortion case. It’s also the second night of Hanukkah. Mark your calendars now!
2. START A GROUP! Get with your friends and establish prayer together every Tuesday. Encourage your pastors to start Turnaround Tuesday prayer meetings.
3. SPREAD THE WORD! Overload the inboxes of leaders and friends with this post and others. Pass it on through social media. Write your own post. Get it out!
4. SHARE YOUR TESTIMONY! Maybe you have a story of God’s dramatic intervention for your son or daughter. Write it up and share it! A new website is going up as soon as we can put it together, and we’d like to showcase many of your stories.
5. LETS COME TOGETHER IN OUR GIVING! Obviously funding is needed immediately. Infrastructure for the Turnaround Tuesday project, including prayer calls, the new website, videos, graphics, and communications nationally and internationally, must be built with excellence. Please sow to the Spirit and lets together reap the harvest so profoundly close to Jesus’ heart!
I know this is a lot to absorb. So let me close with a final prophetic story.
Last Tuesday, a day before Lou and I talked, the Lord gave me a vision. I was worshiping during the opening of the GPC, eyes closed and hands up in front of me. My eyes opened, only to see a NEWBORN BABY cradled in my hands! The child was dressed in blue and was sleeping soundly. Not knowing what the Lord was saying or even what to do, I raised this baby in my hands and committed him to the Lord.
Our prophetic roundtable had fervently prayed the day before over the abortion issue. We sought the Lord to annul covenants with death and hell empowering abortion at a root level. I felt the sudden appearance of this baby was Heaven’s confirmation that the shift has been mandated—and backed by God’s own hand—from death to LIFE. Cindy invited me to share the vision with the prophets gathered.
Lou Engle actually referred to the vision during our meeting. “Jon, maybe the child you saw is actually this turnaround movement!” And all I could say is YES…
“Sing o barren woman, break forth into shouts of joy, for more are the children of the desolate woman than the children of the married wife. Expand the curtains of your tent. Lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes. You will break forth to the right and to the left, and your offspring will possess the nations!” (Isaiah 54).
