Revelation 16:1 (LSB) 1 Then I heard a loud voice from the sanctuary, saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”
As I have recently been working my way through the book of Revelation, through the lens of Biblical prophecy I have seen confirmation of the great depravity of the world.
Now, this could cause great anxiety or depression.
But I am a child of God, And I know that this is all part of what was spoken of through the prophets centuries ago as He revealed His plans, that we might not be ignorant.
I rest securely in Him. I have no fear or worries.
Instead, I have great hope!
Because I am a blood-bought follower of Christ, I know who wins in the end. I’ve read the Book, and we already know how the story ends.
Does the condition of humanity, and the massive presence of evil in the world bother me?
Of course it does. It is devastating to watch people around the globe descend into what can only be described as demon-inspired sin and utter depravity, ignorant to the destruction they are hurtling toward at breakneck speeds.
But I also know that the love of God, and the plans He has, are bigger and more powerful than anything the devil can scheme up.
So, we would like to encourage you today. Do not let the difficulties of the days we live in cause you to become distraught or fearful.
God is giving us glimpses of His light and His power.
Set your face like a flint and fix your eyes squarely on Him, the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
He truly holds the future in His hands.
And if you are His child, He holds you in those same hands.
Take comfort in Him and rest in His peace that surpasses all understanding.
Amen 🙏
