Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end… (Isaiah 9:7).
The Church of Jesus Christ isn’t a mere organization or association of worshippers. It’s God’s agency for executing His will and agenda across the nations. The Church is the pillar and ground of Truth (1 Timothy 3:15).
Everything God wants to do in a nation, He initiates through the Church, which is His body (Ephesians 1:22-23) and you’re a member of that body: “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular” (1 Corinthians 12:27). This means you’re part of something global and divine, something powerful, full of glory and dominion.
When Jesus said I will build my Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it, He emphasized the dominion and supremacy of the Church over hell, Satan and the forces of darkness. God put all things under the feet of the Church: “And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all” (Ephesians 1:22-23). How glorious this is!
Can you see why no one in the Church should be a weakling or live as a victim? We’re the expressions of His reality, of His fullness, His grace, glory, Kingdom, power and personality. Glory to God! We hold the keys. We carry His divine presence and authority. Through the Church, God enforces righteousness in the earth and unveils His manifold wisdom to angelic beings and principalities: “To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God” (Ephesians 3:10).
Take your place in the Church; contribute to its growth, strength and expansion. Ephesians 4:16 (NIV) says, “From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.” Participate actively in soul-winning. Think impact; be effectual for Christ in your world, for He wants to change the world through you.

Amen.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
