The author presents cogent reasons why it is so important that we pray at noontime. He traces the Biblical history that honors "noon" as important time in the day. He reminds us that it was the "sixth" hour (noon=12 pm) marking that time when Jesus was suffering on the Cross. Matthew, Mark and Luke all center on noon as a critical time regarding the crucifixion. "When it was noon, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon" when Jesus cried out with a loud voice and died (Mark 15:33-34). The book also acknowledges that the number 12 is a symbol of God's authority handed over to human leadership which obviously in today's world does not work for God's kingdom on earth when one examines the ever-growing secularism in our country, the increasing assaults on religious freedom here and around the world and the disintegration of the traditional beliefs and the moral integrity within the church. A current website called "12 O'Clock Prayer Challenge-God's Answer for America" is mentioned in the book that coincides with the author's call out for people to seriously consider praying specifically at 12 noon to God for our country and for us.
