Prophetic Words & Declarations from the 50 State Tour: These prophetic words were given in August, 2003 by Chuck Pierce, and are ongoing needs for prayer and intercession:

Because Illinois is apostolic, many local expressions of my Spirit (local churches, ministries streams) - many of them are very well connected but they've not gone to the next level of the apostolic and been able to connect properly outside of their own realm, outside of their own church.

Some would look at this state and say no, no, no this is not true. There's good connection here, there's good apostolic order. And the Lord would say to that yes there is good connection and there is apostolic order but He's going to take it to a level now that goes outside of the local expressions.

You're not only going to have a good connection and joining together, you're not only going to have that in your local expressions but eight of you are going to get together the Spirit of the Lord said, eight of you are going to come together. But I say to you not only are the eight going to come together but the eight are going to multiply again to sixty-four, and so on. They are going to come together until there is a new connecting in the State of Illinois that takes the apostolic anointing to a higher level. It’s going to extend the authority of God over the battlefield on this state in a way that it hasn't been connected before and you're going to begin to see the armies of God prevail in ways that they have never prevailed before.

Demons are going to be disempowered in a new way. Breakthroughs are going to come. Deliverance is going to come. People are going to be set free. On the battlefield there's going to come a turning of the tide because the apostolic order goes to another level of connection...

Agree with me right now. Lord, we just tear down everything that the enemy has brought and will try to bring. We not only tear down what he's done already, we tear down what he's trying to do. We say in the name of the Lord that there is not going to be a successful disenfranchising. There's not going to be any disconnecting. There's not going to be an altering of the time or the season or the decree of God…. Every ministry, every church, everyone is going to be afforded the opportunity, the Lord says, to go to another level of connecting (across) denominational lines, racial lines, genders lines. “I'm going to do it all,” He says. “I'm going to connect you at another level. Streams are going to come together.”

The Lord says, “The grace is coming on the place, the grace is coming on the place. The grace to come together is coming on this place. For I say you've been here and you've been there but I'm giving you the grace to come on the place and the supernatural abundance of an alignment is falling in this region. I say let it begin and watch things change,” saith the Lord.

We decree there is a connecting of the Body of Christ coming in the State of Illinois, going to another level. God is snapping things into alignment. He's healing dislocation and broken places and snapping them back. He's mending the nets so He can bring a great harvest to the State of Illinois. The Lord says “I'm going to have a net that will not fail this time. I'm going to have a net that can hold the Harvest. I'm going to have a net that won't let one fish out.” Just like the Lord, you'll be able to say: “Of those you've given to me, not one has been lost except the son of perdition that the scriptures might be fulfilled.”

“I'm telling you, you're going to go to another level of getting fish, keeping fish, mentoring fish, discipling fish because you're going to have healthy nets,” the Lord says.

August 2003, Chicago

During the Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets’ 50 State Tour to Illinois in August, 2003, Chuck gave the following word to John Eckhardt and the state of Illinois.

We are standing and believing that what the Lord has spoken will not return to Him void: “I'm about to visit Illinois a second time. You will be a prototype for the states. You'll begin to build what it takes to house My glory. There will be six weeks of rearranging. You will have an order and an anointing to put things in order. Many will come to this state to be a part of that glory. The glory will not only be in the house, but without this house, says the Lord. From this state My glory shall proceed forth as a wheel that shall turn this nation.”
