    When There Is No One To Stand In The Gap Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 18, 2024
     | 1,159 views

    God makes a stunning statement here: there is no one left to stand in the gap on behalf of Israel. What does this passage tell us about the specific shortcomings of the people of God and the prophets of God in that day? And can this text encourage us today to stand strong amid a dark hour?

    OFF-TRACK: The American church is far from what we should be. - I think this is largely beyond dispute, so I won’t belabor the point. - Let me simply share one proof that I think is instructive. - When you look at the early chapters of Acts, there are many people who are coming to know Jesus.

    Ever wished you could have prevented a great tragedy? Just as there are great physical tragedies with lasting consequence, so there are great spiritual tragedies with eternal consequence. The Apostle Paul seeks to prevent a great spiritual tragedy in the fledgling church at Corinth, Greece.

    How many of you here have been associated with a preventable tragedy? What I'm talking about here are bad things that happened to people you knew or know which could have been prevented. These bad things would not have happened if someone hadn't been ignorant or naïve, or ...read more

    The power of evangelism is one of the most effective ways of reaching out to a world in search of answers with some looking for a reason to live. You cannot give what you do not have, and, to be a successful soul winner, you must know the value of what you are presenting to others.

    We as a church are a people blessed by God. God’s word teaches us how blessings and curses operate. Only when God’s blessings are on us can we remain safe and protected from the attacks of Satan.

    We read in Numbers 23:11, Then Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? I brought you here to curse my enemies, but all you have done is bless them." (GNB) As we continue these studies on the church, we realize that many people have not understood the importance of church, and ...read more
