In a world of so much uncertainty and turmoil we are
constantly wondering what is going to happen next
if things come to a point of war or disaster.
Then where will we find safety?!?
While preparation of a strong military is good,
today’s scripture verse reminds is that in the end
our true safety is not in armies, countries, or politics,
but ultimately in God.
The Apostle Paul confirmed this assurance by God
for his people saying “We are troubled on every side,
yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair.”
(2 Corinthians 4:8) Indeed, though it might feel (and indeed be)
like the world is about to explode with war, financial collapse,
or political conflict keep in mind that God Is In Control
and He knows exactly what is going on,
allowing perplexing human actions to occur
unwittingly by those that do them to accomplish
His purposes in His time.
The state of today’s world is indeed worrisome,
but remember this —
the most often used phrase in the entire Bible
is FEAR NOT! Our ultimate protection
is NOT in the temporal
ARMS of Men Or Nations, but in the
Loving Arms Of God
in His Kingdom!
