Matthew 24: 6-14
You shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you are not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in many places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many…And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold…But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
I’m sure many can never remember another time in history like the time we’re in right now…Violence…anarchy…and chaos is everywhere…
Maybe Noah is the only one who could relate to the times we are in right now…
The signs of the times are all around us and we must be discerning and attentive to the days we are living…
When Jesus comes to get us…
let not our lamp be burning low…
let’s be attentive and ready…
let’s be prepared to go…
Matthew 24: 36-39
But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. For the coming of the Son of Man will be “just like the days of Noah.”
For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so shall the coming of the Son of Man be
As we head into the final chapters of 2020 and continue to navigate the storm that’s been brewing….let’s remember that it was God himself that shut Noah and his family in the Ark…We can trust Him to keep us safe… no matter what!
There’s nothing that we can do to keep ourselves safe in this season. We are in a season of ever increasing faith and total trust. God is in charge and we must constantly endeavour to lean on Him knowing that He is the true “commander and chief” and there is nothing that can stop His plan… He has the whole world in His hands…
Regardless of the outcome of the next week..there will be unrest and upset in the Country… God knows the end from the beginning and He will empower us to navigate through the rest of the storm…He is working behind every curtain that’s hiding perilous political performances and He will bring about the ending that suits the furtherance of His plan and His timing… NO THING…NO MAN..NO PLOT…EVIL ASSIGNMENT OR POLITICAL PLOY…will STOP God’s hand from being played out…
We are headed into a winter of God’s wonder…The BEST is yet to come!
