Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my Holy mountain. Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is night at hand. Joel 2:1

Where did God tell the Prophet Joel to blow the trumpet?  In Zion among the people of God. God did not say blow the trumpet in the world among the wicked. He said, “Blow it among the people of God.”   Today, we hear a lot of preaching concerning how America needs to repent. Some preachers are continually preaching about how America needs a revival. I believe we can all agree that our nation needs to repent and that we need a heaven sent revival, but do we really expect to see our nation turn back to God if the church does not first turn back to God? How can we expect our nation to repent if the church refuses to repent?

Some preachers want to blame the homosexual community or the abortionist for the shape that our nation is in. While it is true that God hates the sin of homosexuality and also the sin of abortion. The reason we are in the shape we are in today is not because of the homosexual or the abortionist it is because of the church. THE CHURCH HAS FAILED!

Today, the church must have holy men and women of God who are full of the Holy Ghost who are not afraid to preach and proclaim the true word of God. We need ministers who refuse to be controlled by some organization, denomination, or deacon board. We need men and women who can not be bought by money, who refuse to be controlled by the spirit of Jezebel that is operating so rampant in many of our churches.

If the meteorologist refuses to warn of an upcoming storm lives may be lost. If a policeman refuses to protect a city the city might be destroyed. If a fireman refuses to put out a fire, great loss will be experienced. If a doctor refuses to treat a sick man, the sick man may die, but if God ministers refuse to blow the trumpet and sound an alarm, multitudes will continue to die in their sins and go to a place the Bible calls Hell!

Ministers today seem to be afraid to preach the truth, they are afraid they will offend somebody. If the word of God offends someone then they need to change, but do not change the word of God. If God’s ministers would take a stand and preach the truth, lives would be changed. Once again people would be set free from addiction, disease, and evil spirits. But it will only happen when the truth is preached under the anointing of the Holy Ghost.

Too many ministers today are trying to preach what is politically correct. We are not called to preach what is politically correct we are called to preach what is Biblically correct. THE BIBLE IS RIGHT! The Bible is right even if people do not like it. The root of the problem today is the pulpit. If we can ever get God’s ministers to get right with God, then I believe the church will follow and once the church gets right with God our nation will also get right.

Now more than ever God’s ministers must BLOW THE TRUMPET IN ZION AND SOUND THE ALARM! The future of our nation depends upon it. The future of millions of lost souls depend on it. The future of the church depends on it. Blow the trumpet in Zion!
