What is a mobilizer?
A normal everyday Christian who walks with God yet has a global perspective
and who stays on the home front to rouse others to action.
What
is mobilization?
When a country goes to war, it isn't just the frontline soldiers whose lives
are affected. An entire line of support personnel must stand behind them,
supplying whatever the combat troops need to do battle. And back on the home
front, massive mobilization is required to keep people aware of their part
in the war. Posters and radio programs, small-town parades and publicity campaigns
urge people to pray for their troops, to write to them to keep up their battle-fatigued
morale, to sacrifice luxuries for the sake of the war effort, to give up the
use of items that are more desperately needed on the front lines, to volunteer
for support positions from medical assistants to entertainers, to put their
personal money into special accounts such as "war bonds" so the proceeds can
be used for the war effort, to go to work at new jobs in order to produce
materials needed in the conflict.
Think
back over the items of this analogy and ask how you might motivate, train,
and activate people in your culture to such vital responses to a national
crisis. Those ideas are probably exactly how you can motivate, train, and
activate believers to their part in the global spiritual warfare against Satan's
false kingdom of darkness. To mobilize is to get them moving.
