"Standing firm in our Faith in Times of Crisis" 10-10-23
This is not a time to be afraid, but it is a time to be wise. We must wake up to the reality of a changed world and be listening to what the Lord will say to us all to be doing. Your security is not based on what you have or in who you know. Your comforts can be gone tomorrow, but our God is always with us and is also within us, and He is eternal. When times change, we are to change with it. New alignments for new assignments. Are we doing all that the crisis in the world demands? Are you willing to change? Put your trust fully in Him today.
Gather together in groups, homes, buildings, wherever the Lord says to gather, and strengthen one another in the faith, and pray for the nations. Darkness will never defeat the Light, but we are to be wise and wage a good warfare in agreement with Gods plans for our times. The nations are going to shake even more.
Be strong, and fear not. God is at work. We are all fully in the Big Wave now. Allow the Lord to unveil things to you, and to show you His will for you. Our God knows more than we do, and our current paradigms must change! Rise up above the clamor, the news, the upheavals, and look at Him! Love one another and help those who are fearful and in need. Shine your love and light everywhere you go.
We must each stand in faith looking at our Lord, doing whatever He shows us to do, and trusting Him to guide and to provide. We must pray for each other as well as our enemies. God looks to the heart of a man, and He also listens to the prayers of those who believe in Him and seek Him. He will answer!
These scriptures stand out to me today:
Ephesians 6:10 In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides].11 Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil.12 For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. 13 Therefore put on God’s complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day [of danger], and, having done all [the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your place]. 14 Stand therefore [hold your ground], having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God, 15 And having shod your feet in preparation [to face the enemy with the [a]firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness [b]produced by the good news] of the Gospel of peace. 16 Lift up over all the [covering] shield of [c]saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked [one]. 17 And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit [d]wields, which is the Word of God. 18 Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people).
- Those in Great Darkness will certainly see His Great Light!
