Gaps Need Filling!

As we take a serious look at our nation today, we recognize very quickly that as a nation, we are in serious trouble. We sit and listen to those who are running as candidates to oversee our nation’s future and we quickly realize the agendas of the majority of them are not centered upon bringing our nation back to its grandeur and place of prominence worldwide that has been lost.

As I consider the state of the church in America today, I recognize why our nation is in the situation it finds itself in today. Certainly, the position of “President of the US” is extremely important and the occupier of that position should have the well-being of America at heart. Whether you agree or not, this nation was founded upon Biblical principles and standards and as such should be overseen by an individual who stands behind those principles and standards.

However, the root cause of America’s trouble today is the condition of her church. So many have sold out to political correctness, to whitewashing the gospel and the truths of the Word of God, to preaching a gospel that doesn’t offend anyone. Men are filling pulpits across America who have no spiritual calling on their lives to do so. The anointing and infilling power of the Spirit of God is not upon them. They have simply discovered an easy way to spout untruths and mistruths essentially leading people astray while lining their pockets.

The only hope for America today is for a body of true believers to rise up and fulfill the Words of the Lord that was delivered through the prophet Ezekiel. The Lord said: “I searched for a man among them who would repair the wall and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land so that I might not destroy it, but I found no one” (Ezekiel 22:30).

The Lord is looking for gap-men today—sold-out men and women of God who will rise up and take a stand against the evil pervading our society. Men and women who recognize the trouble the church, as well as America, are in today and refuse to allow this cycle to continue by praying, then standing up and speaking out against the evil. There are so many gaps in the wall that need filling today.

Are you one of these individuals? Do you care about the future of the church and America? Do you have what it takes to fulfill this role that is so desperately needed in America today? Prayerfully consider the message in Ezekiel 22:23-31 and how it corresponds to the plight the church and America are in today.
