Build Up The Breach! Conclusion

According to George Barna, following 9/11 “churches succeeded at putting on a friendly face but failed at motivating the vast majority of spiritual explorers to connect with Christ in a more intimate or intense manner.” Within a few weeks, we went back to the way we were before this horrible and tragic event. There was no appreciable change in the life of the average US citizen but the landscape of this country and the world was changed forever.

I am compelled by the Spirit to ponder what would have happened after 9/11 if we had stayed on our knees in prevailing prayer seeking for the divine intervention we so desperately need? Would circumstances be any different than they are today? Only God knows for sure but the Word of God advocates for the idea that man controls his own destiny. Our obedience to God's leading determines the outcome. As individuals and governments, we will determine our future. Yes, prophecies will be fulfilled as written and the end will come just as prophesied, but we will determine the role we play by our obedience to God or lack thereof. 

We are fighting against the ruler of the darkness of this world. Satan is behind all this chaos. He is the enemy and his goal is to destroy the soul and body of all men. But the army of Jesus Christ must rise up against him. How, you may ask? We must have the direction of the Lord Jesus Christ. He has empowered His Body to fulfill His ministry in this world. We need the Holy Spirit to give us His instructions to combat the enemy. Human resolve and determination alone cannot win this war. We must have the Holy Spirit to help us understand the enemy, connect with God's plan, and empower us to complete His mission. That will lead us to VICTORY! Build Up The Breach!
