BE HUMBLE

“SO HUMBLE YOURSELVES UNDER THE MIGHTY POWER OF GOD AND AT THE RIGHT TIME, HE WILL LIFT YOU UP IN HONOR. GIVE ALL YOUR WORRIES AND CARES TO GOD FOR HE CARES ABOUT YOU.” 1 PETER 5-7

As we travel through each day it seems, that in many instances, trouble, anxiety, pressures of the world, worry, doubt and fear all seem to find us. We continue to live in unparalled times. Times of confessed lying, cheating, fear and terrorism. Without our God in heaven, and his heavenly army, these strange struggles seem unbearable. The devil is fighting very hard. Without the knowledge of who we are fighting and without knowing how to fight the fight it is very easy to concede and to go along with the ways of the world. We are in a spiritual battle. It is a battle of good verses evil. It is God against the devil. I think that as we read God’s word he has made it very clear that we are living in the end times and that we should take heed. It is necessary that we humble ourselves before the Lord and allow him to take the lead. Without him it is a lost battle. However, the good news is that the devil has already been defeated. Jesus defeated him when he was sent to the earth, died on the cross with the shedding of his blood and then he went to hell and now sits on the right hand of God our Father. He did all of that for each and everyone of those who have accepted him as their Lord and Savior. We should humble ourselves not only before our God in heaven but also before others, thinking of them as better than ourselves. Be humble. Don’t fear spreading the word of God and the salvation message. Time is running out. We may not know exactly when our Lord is returning but we do know he is at the door. We do know we are living in very exciting times. Take heed. PRAISE THE LORD!
