“The Lord has chastened me sore, but he has not given me over unto death”-Psalm 118:18
There is no doubt looking around our world that life is harder than it used to be! And sadly, a lot of this is our own fault. As a nation, we turned our backs on the Lord; we disobeyed God repeatedly. Yes, absolutely, there are many who still Follow Jesus and obey God, but our country is led by those who do not. And there are a number of countries led by those who do not obey God. And sadly, we all pay the price.
But there is also a passage in the Psalm that says:
“The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
The Lord taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.”
-Psalm 118:6-8
For those who Follow Jesus, we need not fear :). For those who do not Follow Jesus, it is not too late-yet.
Prepare, Pray and Be Ready!
