What Do We Need Right Now?
That's easy!
We need an army of soldiers dedicated to Jesus Christ, who believe not only that He is God, but that He will fulfill every promise He ever made and there isn't anything too hard for Him.
That is the only way we can accomplish the thing that is on His heart - getting the gospel to every creature.
So the need of this hour is to believe that our God controls the universe, and when He said, "The earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God," (Habakkuk 2) He meant it.
We see in Revelation that this will someday all be fulfilled just as prophesied. And right now, we need to start the battle for souls of mankind.
Too often we look at the church as if it were a cruise ship, a Carnival for salvation. But it is more like a battleship, not a holiday cruise ship, but a warship equipped for the battles we are facing against the enemy who wants so desperately to retain possession of his stronghold here on earth. He is dedicated to keeping his kingdom in power, and we must be even more dedicated to bringing Christ's kingdom to earth. Every soul saved right now will return with Jesus when He comes back to reign, and they will lead the celebration when the world bows in recognition at who Christ is and what He did.
And that is what is going to happen. "And every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord." (Philippians 2).
