When we observe the breakdown of order in families, communities, and societies, we are witnessing far more than institutional failure or procedural collapse. We are seeing the manifestation of a profound spiritual reality: the deterioration of the internal systems that govern individual lives. Society is not an abstract entity but a reflection of the inner…
Vision is the foundational element that defines everything else. It determines the kind of mindset or disciplined lifestyle we must pursue, shapes our understanding of what society or community should be, and establishes the framework for the systems we construct. Without clarity about where we are going, we cannot determine how to get there or what tools we need for the journey.
We cannot build a successful, viable society without the right mindset and system that will make it work. These three elements (vision, mindset, and system) form an inseparable triad that determines whether communities flourish or flounder. The type of mindset we cultivate and the systems we build are not arbitrary choices but must be directly defined by the kind of vision we hold for our society, our family, or our community.

When a person’s internal system is weak or compromised, no amount of external structure can hold or compensate indefinitely. They may perform admirably for a season, perhaps even for years, but the lack of internal strength means their functionality depends entirely on favorable external conditions. When pressure increases, when temptation intensifies, when suffering arrives, the facade crumbles because there was no internal, well-built architecture to sustain it. The house is bult on a sinking sand. All external manifestations of systemic breakdown are merely symptoms, visible evidence of an internal collapse that precedes and produces the visible chaos. The collapsed bridge is a symptom of compromised engineering standards, which itself is a symptom of institutional corruption, which itself is a symptom of individuals whose internal moral and spiritual systems have failed. The chain of causation always leads back to the construct or deconstruct of the human heart.

Indecisiveness is often considered a defining characteristic of immaturity. On the other hand, individuals with maturity and strong character demonstrate the ability to make precise, well-considered decisions guided by knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. Many adults today, especially those in some form of leadership positions, often face significant challenges when required to make decisive choices they can support because they’ve thought through them.
As we enter the second phase of our September 2025 fasting period, it is essential that the Word of God to reflect key spiritual values and principles relevant to the significance and dynamics of this fasting.
