South Carolina Root 52 Prayer Guide
Dear Prayer Warriors,
For those who do not know me, my name is Frank Seignious. I am the State Coordinator in South Carolina for the Reformation Prayer Network. (RPN) This is our Root 52 Prayer Document to be a guide our 5 March - 12 March fasting and prayer over SC.
I am a native South Carolinian who loves this state and her people. Except for the years I served in the United State Army (1971-1973 - Georgia / New Jersey / Tennessee / Kentucky) and the head pastor of a church in Virginia (8 3/4 years - 1984-1992) - South Carolina has been my home. My forefather arrived in Charleston in 1789 / 1790. My roots run deep in SC - my heart is tied to the land and her people.
RPN - Root 52 is a intercessory prayer / spiritual warfare initiative for America. The purpose is to turn each State and eventually America back to her biblical values / heritage / roots - to establish or deepen biblical covenant roots - to thrust each State and America into divine destiny. Each week prayer warriors across America - all 50 States - are praying with His authority to change the atmosphere over a state and our nation. Revival does not last Lord - transformation is what we seek - transformation is what we are fighting for! Spiritual Warfare. We love all people - but we war against all spiritual sin and evil. Use this prayer guide - be guided and empowered by Holy Spirit. Below is my personal reflection.
When we finished on Friday about 7:15 pm ... exhausted mentally ... and read over the history of SC ... one word stood out in my heart and mind regarding my beloved home state of SC ... War! To be honest, I was a bit stunned! War - with the resulting fruit - is the single thing that dominates our state history. War - rebellion - bloodshed - violence - lawlessness - hate - anger - strife - poverty. These spirits of the evil one - continue to operate - hidden from the natural eye - but empowering the powers and principalities that negatively affect SC and America.

In South Carolina, many prayer warriors (apostles / prophets / intercessors / pastors / evangelist / teachers) have faithfully repented individually and corporately via Identificational Repentance for all of the above in the last 30 or more years. Our prayers and actions of the past have been heard in heaven and their spiritual impact has weakened the demonic structures over South Carolina. In our spiritual warfare, beachheads have been established / the atmosphere has been altered. However, none of the above arms have been completely severed. We believe we are now at a point of spiritual breakthrough that will bring transformation. We have made considerable progress as God's people fighting to bring in HIS KINGDOM rule of Justice, Peace and Righteousness. Please join us as we Decree and Declare the in breaking of God's Kingdom as South Carolina intentionally moves into destiny.
