Revelation 4:1-11OPEN: Fifteen years ago, two of our families went on vacation. They went to NYC and had gone to see the sights and enjoy the pleasures of the city.
But their plans were shattered in a moment’s time… along with the plans of millions of Americans across the nation.
19 evil men, with hearts filled with darkness and hate and their minds dominated by a sense of self-righteousness and vengeance, hijacked 4 airliners and carried out suicide attacks against specially selected targets.
They murdered over 3,000 people were killed during these attacks, including more than 400 police officers and firefighters.
Osama Ben Laden took immediate credit for the attack and Muslims across the Mid-East rejoiced in the crippling of the “Great Satan” (Us)
Expecting further potential attacks, commercial airlines were immediately grounded. The nation was paralyzed and businesses ground to a halt.
America was shocked and devastated and on the verge of financial collapse.
What our nation needed (and what we received from President Bush) was someone who could say:
I understand you fear.
I know the enemy and I have a plan to deal with them.
I know what we’re going to do to face the coming days and we will overcome this hardship and tragedy together.
That’s essentially the message of Revelation 4.
God is saying:
I understand you fear.
I know the enemy and I have a plan to deal with them.
And I know what we’re going to do to face the coming days and we will overcome this hardship and traged ...

19 evil men, with hearts filled with darkness and hate and their minds dominated by a sense of self-righteousness and vengeance, hijacked 4 airliners and carried out suicide attacks against specially selected targets.
- 2 of the planes were flown into the towers of the World Trade Center
- A 3rd plane hit the Pentagon just outside Washington, D.C.,
- And the 4th plane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania before it reached its destination because of the courage and sacrifice of those on board.
They murdered over 3,000 people were killed during these attacks, including more than 400 police officers and firefighters.
