Thirty years ago this month the Berlin Wall was torn down, and the course of history changed. A video (commemorating the 20th anniversary) gives a glimpse into the account of this iconic representation of the Cold War. I thought you might find it interesting.
Larry and I were shocked to have front row seats as this modern day miracle played out on the world’s stage. And truly, it was our indescribable privilege to walk shoulder to shoulder with the godly, heroic men and women featured here.
Living With Eternal Intentionality®
The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of the LORD; He turns it wherever He wishes ... (Proverbs 21:1).
Let them give thanks to the LORD for His lovingkindness, And for His wonders to the sons of men! For He has shattered gates of bronze, And cut bars of iron asunder (Psalm 107:15-16).
1. How do you see the Hand of God in bringing about the collapse of the Berlin Wall?
2. Why do you think the Lord wanted to bring about this dramatic change? Keep in mind that the world thought this event would, most likely, never occur.
3. Where in today’s world do we see impossible situations, which likewise, need God’s supernatural intervention?
4. How can you lead your church, your Bible Study, or your home group to pray to such an historic end elsewhere?
Note: For further reading, I commend to you the book, The Collapse: The Accidental Opening of the Berlin Wall, by Mary Elise Sarotte.
