I wish I could say that things will get better. They won’t. They are going to worsen. We can be assured of that so draw close to our Lord and hold on tight. He has your back. I’ll end with one of my favorite sections of Scripture that I’ve memorized and repeat often (along with Isaiah 41:10), Psalm 147:17-20 (ESV). Read it. Memorize it. Repeat it to yourself. Allow that truth to wash over you as you face each new storm in life. He has not forgotten or rejected you. Learn to fear offending Him through an increase in love for Him. Endeavor to be as truthful as you can be in your prayers to Him. Trust Him for His provision. Everything He does is righteous and gracious.
Lessons from a Pup
I personally believe God created animals that humans ultimately domesticated and became pets to enhance our lives. I know some folks are not animal lovers. To each their own, but I believe they’re missing some wonderful blessings. Since adopting Scooby, we’ve learned a lot about him as he’s acclimating himself to us and us to him. I’m not sure what he went through for the first five months of his life before we adopted him, but I’m thinking not much of it was good at all except for the boy in his life and possibly the grandmother.
Normalcy is the Cure
So again, what should our response be to all of this? I can only think of one real substantive response that will allow us to retain our dignity and purposefully create for ourselves some semblance of well-being in the midst of the growing behemoth of corruption that seeks to swallow all dissenters up and conform us to the final global order.
Predictive Prophecy
We cannot possibly know all aspects of the End Times events and timing and I’m beginning to wonder if much of that pursuit is a fruitless use of energy. God’s primary purpose in telling us ahead of time is not to cause us to focus all of our energies into trying to figure out everything but to shout hallelujahs to Him when those things occur because their fulfillment proves once again that He and He alone is God!
Thought Patterns
I’ve always been a glass half empty kind of person. Always. It’s simply my nature and I realize it largely has to do with impact my parents made on the way I saw the world and think in general. I’m not blaming them. I’m simply saying that whether or not they realized it, they tended to pass down to me (and my sister), the negativism that was rife in their own lives and between my mother and father. That negativism was alive and often fearful to me and so based on what I saw and experienced from a young age, my negative patterns of thinking developed. The adage, “you live what you learn” is very true.
God’s Perspective vs Ours
Sometimes, I wish I was more like Job who put his hand over his mouth to keep from saying something stupid. What he was saying was “I’ve already complained too much and to ensure that it stops, I will physically block my mouth!” Job realized he added nothing to the conversation as he sat in abject awe of God. Though Job started out perplexed, frustrated and almost indignant, he realized ultimately that God is God and His purposes are often way too high for us to comprehend.
Do you think Job ever questioned God again? Do you think he approached life differently from that point on? Do you think he had a greater (though still imperfect), understanding of God’s perspective after what Job went through? I’d prefer not to go through any of that to arrive to the same conclusion.
Rethinking Revelation 6 Part 5
Bottom line for me is that Christians today will very likely feel the uptick of “persecution.” Here in the USA, that means as we stand against LGBTQ+ we will be demonized for it. As we resist the wave of Marxism in all its tenets (i.e. Critical Race Theory), as it tries sweeping across our communities, we will experience the wrath of the Left increasingly. We can somewhat guard against that if we are further away from the larger cities, but it will still likely find us where we live. We will also likely have to deal with more health “pandemics” with officials issuing more health mandates to gain more control of society. You need to decide now how you will react to those mandates.
In the Lion’s Den
I’m sure it was scary for Daniel. He didn’t know the outcome ahead of time (as far as we know), until the outcome happened. A scary situation became victory because of God. In truth folks, Christians are in the lion’s den today. The pressure is increasing and in the final analysis, the only thing we can do is trust our Lord who overcomes the lions.While we might not actually be in the lion’s den physically, we know that Satan roams around seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter ). His hatred of us is akin to Nebuchadnezzar’s anger at Shadrach, Meshach and Abegnego and wanted nothing more than to see them burn!
Enemy of the Matrix
Andrew Tate is speaking out with reference to men and applauding the male species, encouraging men to be men. This is problematic to the power elite who want everyone cowed, enslaved and controlled. Real men don’t cower easily. Real men do not take kindly to situations where they lose control. Real men want to protect, help, nurture and mentor. Power Elites want to destroy what it means to be a real man and to destroy the fabric of God’s created society.
Rethinking Revelation 6 Part 4
What if the first horse and rider represent something else, other than the Antichrist? What if without this particular horse and rider, the other seals (2, 3, and 4), could not really occur? Everything then is based on what the first horse and rider will be and do. By the way, I will state this up front as well. I fully believe the first four seals all clearly pave the way for the man of sin/son of perdition/Antichrist to rise to the top of the heap. If not for the opening of the first four seals (Seal 1 especially), I don’t believe Antichrist would have an opening. The first four seals lay the groundwork, building on the previous seal, making his appearance a reality. Each seal does something to global society that pushes the world toward the point where Antichrist can and will make his appearance.
