Genesis 11:5-9 – “But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower that the people had started building. 6 And the Lord said, “If as one people all sharing a common language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be beyond them. 7 Come, let’s go down and confuse their language so they won’t be able to understand each other.” 8 So the Lord scattered them from there across the face of the entire earth, and they stopped building the city. 9 That is why its name was called Babel—because there the Lord confused the language of the entire world, and from there the Lord scattered them across the face of the entire earth.”
As I read, prayed, and meditated on the Word of God today, I was reminded of how detailed God is in dealing with mankind. He who knows everything intricately plans everything. He dots every “I” and crosses every “T.” Nothing is left to chance.
God laces His accounts of history with powerful revelation. In Genesis 11, in the story of the Tower of Babel, we immediately see the power of communication. “The whole earth spoke one language and had one manner of speech.” Even in the church today, we may speak the same language but do not have the same manner of speaking. We say the same thing and use the exact words, but mean different things. There is no unity because there is no common understanding. In verse 6, God said, “They are one people, and they have one language, and they have reasoned to do this thing…”
Communication grounded in commonality enables reasoned plans to become anchors for the community. God said that because of this, they can do whatever is in their hearts.
Alone, we may dream but are unable to implement the dream or vision. But unified, nothing is impossible! We can achieve to the extent we can dream.
The New Testament principle: In unity, we are undefeatable. Through communication, we overcome the limits of individualism. Threefold cords are strong, but an entire community unified is undefeatable.
That’s why we need others. That’s why the family unit is so important. That’s why husband-and-wife teams (unified) are so formidable. It is communication and unity. When we are unified in Christ, operating in the power of the Holy Spirit, NOTHING is impossible!
We have a commission, a mission, and as a unit (if we die to self), we can bring the kingdom to earth. Paul instructed the church to “say” the same thing. We need to learn the language of the Spirit of God! Access to the Unlimited is before us!
Observe and implement the revelations God gives daily and walk in His planned victory!
