I believe that the Body of Christ, God’s Church, is the greatest organization on the earth today. As a local church in Brevard County we are similar to other churches, but we are also unique.
No matter how crazy our nation, or even the world gets, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ must never give up. As the people of God we are called to “stand in the gap” and pray for the healing of our society through prayer and intercession. God is calling us to be a people who believe that we “can do all things through Him (Jesus Christ) who strengthens” us (Philippians 4:13).
Believing that everything is possible with God, we are not naive about life, but neither will we allow ourselves to become cynical. As the Church we must seek God and ask for understanding concerning what He is doing in the earth today and how we can be a part of the solution. We have an incredible call on our shared life together. As we stand together in unity and intercede on behalf of the church, our community, and our nation, we can make a significant impact. There is great power in coming together in agreement with God and one another, and praying for a particular situation. Together we can be the house of God, a place where people can experience the life, power, and presence of God, grow in their understanding of truth and reality, and step into their individual call. Our walk with God is much more than going to heaven. God has us here for a reason. Together we can make an eternal difference.
What does the church mean to you? What can we accomplish together that we cannot accomplish separately? Have you experienced the power of the church praying together?
