What can we do to be prepared?

1.)    Make sure that your relationship with God is right.

Many preachers are trying to convince others that the wickedness in our country is responsible for the actions of the terrorists this week. Some pastors are preaching that this devastation is a judgement of God against America. I do believe the Bible teaches that the sin of nations will be judged, however the terrorist attack on America is not that judgement. The nation judgement will take place during the tribulation.

II Chronicles 7:14 If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

This verse is written to God’s people, to people called by his name. As Christians, we must humbly seek God and pray for personal forgiveness. We must turn away from our wickedness so that God can use our witness to show others His love through Christ Jesus.

2.)    We must pray for the leaders of our country no matter how we feel about their politics. Praying for the world’s leaders is not just a good idea, it is a commandment.

I Timothy 2:1-4 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Daniel 2:21-23 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

3.) We must pray for each other and uphold each other in the truth of the Bible. Are you receptive to the Holy Spirit? On September 11^th the Holy Spirit convicted me of the need to pray for the GI’s from Viet Nam. They were not awarded the respect that the US military personnel from previous wars had received. Their personal battles with post traumatic stress syndrome were ignored for years. Their justifiable fears from exposure to Agent Orange were brushed away as being insignificant.

On September 11, 2001, many men and women were transported, in their mind’s eye, back to the horrors they endured in Viet Nam. Pray for them, as their struggle continues.

I Samuel 12:23-24 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you: but I will teach you the good and the right way:

Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.

4.)    We must pray that God will fight for us.
