Isaiah 2:1-3 KJV — “The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. [2] And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. [3] And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.“
Micah 4:1-5 KJV — “But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it. [2] And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. [3] And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. [4] But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken it. [5] For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.
I believe the church must be exalted and established on the tops of the hills. The prophetic provision and insight into the last days is the fact that the church must be influential on the hills of the city and the world at large.
The church must influence the marketplace, the missions field, the ministry and the homes. Every member of the body of Christ must resolve to influence the hills of the world.
It begins with
Believing that you can influence the hills.
Admit that you can make a massive impact on the field where the Lord has appointed you. Let us admit that impact is possible. It’s possible to influence cities and sectors of the economy. We must do business for and with Jesus.
Praying, crying, supplicating, and fighting until our church is set above the mountains and hills
Let’s pray and start asking the right questions. Ask how you can create impact and influence around you. Stand upon your watch and write the visions. Decide to see and run with the vision.
Purpose (set goals) and plan the next moves
If the apostle Paul and the church could reach a whole region in 2 years, then we can if we study their system and move.
Acts 11:25-26 KJV
[25] Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: [26] and when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
Acts 18:9-11 KJV
[9] Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: [10] for I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city. [11] And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Acts 19:8-12 KJV
[8] And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. [9] But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. [10] And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks. [11] And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: [12] so that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
Get to work
Prepare and get to work; we can not plan forever. We must implement the plans and work at it. You must work and work; keep at it until it works. This is how we can influence cities and nations.
Stay blessed
An encouraging exhortation against self centeredness…thank you
