Last night I was troubled through the night about the situation in Ukraine and spent time praying.
I woke early this morning with a few lines from Maverick City’s “Build Your Church” going round my head. The only lines that I could recall and were repeating in my head were:
Build your church
The gates of hell will not prevail
Build it from the ground up.
I checked the lyrics later and these are the only lines that make sense to me regarding Ukraine.
Jesus is building his church there - we know of many examples of this and salvations since the war started.
The gates of hell will not prevail. Satan and war will not have the victory - God will.
Build it from the ground up - seemed to speak to me about all the buildings being razed to the ground but that God will raise his church from the very ground up.
Praying for you all, for safety, provision and God’s glory to be seen.
