Building the Church to Be Unified in 2011

By: Pastor, Bryant L. McNeal

GENESIS CHAPTER 11:1-9
________________________________________
Read the scripture lesson found below:


1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.
> It’s time to be one language and one speech as a church.
______________________________________________

2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.
> When things are as one people, come together and the vision can be implemented and executed.
______________________________________________

3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter.
> They worked together to make the resources to build the tower.
______________________________________________

4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
> Working together, to leave a legacy.
______________________________________________

5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded> It’s time to get the Lord’s attention. Things can only happen with unity.
_____________________________________________
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
> The Lord should be able to notice our oneness. We can do ANYTHING when we are one
_______________________________________________

7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
> Unity causes God to respond in this context in an unexpected way, but in this dispensation of time He responses with gifts due to unity.
_____________________________________________

8 So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
> The strategy of the Lord regarding scattering them is to populate the earth with more like minded people to build the world.
______________________________________________

9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
> This place was named according to the works of the Lord.
