The Need of Every Nation Micah Hendry

1906-29 The Need of Our Nation SLIDE-320x320

Truth transcends all language, time, and cultural bounds. There are no social, moral, economic, or political solutions to a spiritual problem. Therefore, the only hope of a nation is in what God can do, and the need of every nation is praying Christians.

This may be one of the most politically tumultuous times in modern history. There are many things totally out of our control that are threatening to undo our way of life, especially in America. So what is it that our nation needs most? Praying Christians.

This is not the same as Christian people who sometimes pray; every nation needs believers who can get ahold of Heaven for their own lives, families, churches, and nation. Unfortunately, there are very few such believers.

James 5:16 reminds us that “…the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” This year, will you determine to be the praying Christian that your country needs? Will you seek to please the Lord in all things this year?

The Need of Every Nation Bible App Plan

To encourage you in this area, we have created The Need of Every Nation Bible App plan. It is a five-day plan with key scriptures, devotional content, and personal application. One nice feature of these plans is that you can study through them with your friends/family/church. Encourage others to join you along the way! You can view the instructions here.

We look at current events and get the sense that our nation is coming apart at the seams. The foundations are shaking. What are we to do? The need of our nation is the need of every one of our lives—we must “have faith in God”(Mark 11:22). Begin seeking Him by faith today!

A journey through 1 John reveals our place in the family of God, how we can have assurance, and that our joy is rooted in Christ.

Journey through 1 John

“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.” (John 1:47-48)

Why the Story of Nathanael Sitting Under the Fig Tree Matters

It also discusses the Four Sermons in Haggai It is in that context that God raises up the prophet Haggai with four sermons in four months. The Word of the Lord comes to Haggai, and he preaches four sermons. Each one of them is dated for us. Each sermon targets a different problem. You can read them in Haggai chapters one and two. In his first sermon (Haggai 1:1-15), Haggai preached on the danger of waiting when we should be working. They were waiting for a sign to build. He said, You don't need a sign, you need to obey God. Haggai's second sermon (Haggai 2:1-9) explained the danger of lamenting the past and missing the present. They were sorrowing over the destruction of the past temple. God said, Build a new one. It was G. Campbell Morgan who said, “It is impossible to unlock the present with the rusty key of the past." Many people are bogged down in their past and miss the present. Keep in mind what is at hand and what is ahead. The third sermon he preached (Haggai 2:10-19) described the danger of seeing only the material and neglecting the supernatural. They could see the work that needed to be done, but they missed the fact that God had resources that would help them get it done. The Lord was behind all of this. The fourth sermon (Haggai 2:20-23) warned against the danger of recognizing who is against us and forgetting who is for us. They were concentrating on the opposition and forgetting that “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). A journey through Haggai shows us the importance of performing the work that God has told us to do, and His glory in our obedience. Image leads to an overview of Haggai
