One thing is for sure, the only way big vision is accomplished in the life of a church is through people looking out for one another, fighting for one another.  There no doubt will be people who come against you. Get used to it.  But, let us start to count all the people who are for the vision.  No one ever accomplished a vision with all the people who didn’t believe in it, or had special interest in making sure it didn’t happen.  Let us rise up and build with those who are committed and realize opposition is going to happen.  After all, if God is for us, who can be against us? May we never forget this as we participate with God in the building of His kingdom for His purpose. “May the God of heaven make us prosper.”

Watch Week 3 of Relaunch:  “Fighting For The Church Family” Here:

When the work on the wall is in full swing the people of Jerusalem are attacked fiercely by the opposition.  They are jeered at, humiliated and their physical well being is even threatened.  Like the people rebuilding the wall, as we rebuild lives one person at a time we must come together and fight for our church family through praying continually, working tirelessly, and motivating constantly.
