Langley Christians blow the Trumpet
And Tony Blair is listening
A coach load of members of the
Langley churches travelled to the NEC Arena in Birmingham on
18th June to share in Trumpet Call II, the National Day of
Prayer and Proclamation for the UK and the World.
There were two themes of the day. We all blew the trumpets
physically and spiritually to call God’s people together, to go
into spiritual battle and to celebrate and to expect the walls
standing against God and his people to fall down like the walls
of Jericho. Secondly, we all fired spiritual arrows for victory
taking as our example of the word given by the prophet Elisha to
King Jehoash in 2 Kings 13: 14. We fired the arrows and blew the
trumpets for our nation, for the world, for the poor, for the
church and for Africa.
Tony Blair wasn’t there, but he too recognized that the trumpets
were being blown. In his speech to the European Parliament on
23rd June, he said,
“It is time to give ourselves a reality check. To receive the
wake-up call. The people are blowing the trumpets round the city
walls. Are we listening?”
Christians in the Langley churches continue to blow their
trumpets to bring down the walls erected against God and his
church.Bill
