The American church has more than enough critics pointing their fingers at its problems. From feminists to LGBT individuals to racial activists to homeless communities to doctrinal purists to politicians to whomever – all seem to have a bone to pick with the American church.
Here’s my challenge to every critic: are you willing to be a part of the solution? Or do you just want to keep throwing rocks?
You see, change will only happen when critics, like you and me, have a revelation of what the American church should be: the Bride of Christ. If we can just get a small glimpse of what this Bride should look like, we would fall in love with her. Then, we’d do whatever we had to do to bring the Bride into her fulfillment.
My prayer today:
Lord, help us. We believers are being tossed about by every wave of criticism, by the trickery of men, and by deceit, but if You would reveal a glimpse to us of Your Bride without any spots or wrinkles or blemishes, in all her holiness and without fault, we would use our revelations as lighthouses to draw us toward her. (Based on Ephesians 4 and Ephesians 5:27)
What do you think and has the Lord spoken to you today?
Join with me on Thursdays to fast and pray for America.
Wow Mr. Larry! Really beautiful. Thank you for leading us in prayer today! Blessings and joy and revelations!
