THE POWER WE ARE GIVEN!

” You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet.” Psalm 91:13

There are too many Christians in today’s world who are running scared. There are too many churches that are succumbing to the pressures of the world. We are doing things, teaching things, and becoming a part of things, that are openly in disagreement with what the Word of God teaches us. Little by little we see our ways begin to transition into a church that is unrecognized by our God in heaven. We see the church begin to claim ideas and ways that are the exact opposite of what we are taught by the Bible. It happens in such a way that many do not even notice the differences, or they believe that we must change our ways as followers to be able to reach those who live in the ways of this world. What we are doing is becoming a part of the problem. Our God created us to give us all that he has. He gave us his one and only son, Jesus, as an example of the ways we are to live our lives. The world is not the definition of life, Jesus is. We as Christians are not to be conforming to the world but the world is to be conforming the ways of God. Psalm 91:13 represents the strength our God has given us. It does not matter what stands in our way. We are to continue to read the Word of God, meditate in His Word and live it! Our Lord has little patience for the evil of this world. He will soon return and destroy those who follow the earthly ways. You and I are a part of a great army. We are included in the battles that are being fought spiritually and physically. We cannot doubt and we cannot fear. We must stay strong in our faith and use the strength, wisdom and understanding our God has given us. God will have the last say. It is His plan that is taking shape. It is he who will be the victor and you and I are a part of his team. Never let down! Always stay the course and keep your focus on what God says and not the world. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
