Is. 15-18 [The Message]
God spoke through Isaiah to cities, countries, and people groups. More often than not, He identified their sin and moral decay with a verdict on their punishment. Sodom and Gomorrah are examples of God’s punishment upon depraved societies. Our country has some cities that no doubt have His attention. New York comes to my mind first.
David Wilkerson was called to minister and speak to NY as described in his book, The Cross and the Switchblade. Every Christian should read this book. It’s a classic. The church he started, Times Square Church, is still there in the midst of the culture preaching the Gospel and ministering to sinners. God also raised up the Brooklyn Tabernacle which has a large praying group that sings … Brooklyn Tab. Choir … which touches the lives of the city’s inhabitants.
Application: When we pray, we should identify a city before God’s Throne and ask Him to bring revival.
