I believe it is mandatory that God come to the Church today and move through His people.
Let us look for a moment at the great need upon the nations. Politics cannot solve it, leaders are dismayed, and there seems to be no earthly solution. Only an outpouring upon the Church will solve it. "To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God" (Eph. 3:10). Williams Translation says, "So that the many phases of God's wisdom may now THROUGH THE CHURCH be made known to the rulers and authorities in heaven."
I do not have space to elaborate on the world situation or that of our own country. Knowing the prophecies in the Bible and the times we live in, we know it is time for the intervention of God. Satan has come down in great wrath because he knows his time is short. "Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time" (Rev. 12:12). He has come to destroy every visage of truth, to pervert and to rob the Church and the nations, and to take peace from the earth.
In our own country Satan has managed to take the Bible and prayer out of the schools, and to place the theory of evolution above the Biblical account of creation. The media and press have been used to spread atheistic communism and humanism. Through the New Age movement, men have become gods unto themselves; repeating the scene of the Garden of Eden where Satan tempted Eve with, "ye shall be as gods" (Gen. 3:5). The plague of AIDS is on the very doorstep of our homes in epidemic proportions. Only the power of God and a mighty visitation upon the Church will save us.
I believe it is mandatory that God in a sovereign manner put His glory on the Church to counteract the wiles of the devil. The Church is the key to changing our destiny.
