DO NOT FEAR

Part Three of Three

Nothing that is happening today has caught God off guard or by surprise. He is not perplexed or in a quandary as to what He should do next. The prophetic message of the hour is that. . .God is in control.

Before the foundation of the world, God’s original plan was a bride for Christ and children for Himself. Christ is coming soon for His Bride, and it is why things have to end like they are. A new heaven and a new Earth are coming. Gen 6:3 says that His Spirit will not always strive with man.

The Bible also says that we will not know the day or the hour of His return, but we will know at the door. We need to discern the lateness of the hour. The shofar is about to blow.

Four things must happen before the new world order can come to fruition:

1. The destruction of the monetary system
Do the words stimulus, bailouts, and the nationalizing of the auto industry, banks, mortgage companies, and student loans ring a bell? Then there is Obama care and etcetera. These create an astounding debt and high unemployment and destroys the dollar because of the lack of it.

2. The death of patriotism
Why do we think that the establishment is trying to discredit the Tea Party movement? What about the three young men the school sent home for wearing “T” shirts depicting the American flag. And the poor 14 year-old girl that the teacher castigated in front of the classroom for drawing a picture of an American flag with “God bless America” written across the top of it.

3. The destruction of the evangelical faith
Just the other day, a judge ruled that the National Day of Prayer was unconstitutional. The schools have removed prayer and God from the classroom. Then there’s the separation of church and state fallacy. Unity, at the expense of the truth, is the gospel of the new world order.

4. The destruction of the traditional family
The courts have allowed children to sue their parents. Young ladies receive abortions without the consent of their parents. The objective of the state is to remove and transfer the authority from the parents to the state. Then there is the push for homosexual marriages. The family is falling apart.

So far I have given you a taste of the enemy’s plan and a picture of the new world order. I hope that these three blogs have helped you in understanding the times that we are in. It is a lot deeper than this but this gives you an idea for your own research.

The Bible is very clear as to what we are to do and not do in these last days. I see three things:

Number One: (Matthew 24:6)
Jesus told us that in these last days that “. . .ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass. . .” The message here is: Do not fear! While the world is worried about the things that are coming upon them, we have the blessed hope of Christ’s return. So. . .do not fear!

Number Two: (2 Peter 3:10-13)
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,

Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

We are to get our eyes off of this world. God has not called us to restore or save the world. Our concerns should be for the lost in these last days as we discern the lateness of the hour. Colossians 3:2 says to Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Number Three: (Luke 21:28)
Set your eyes on the skies. And when these things (signs of the times) begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh. The good news is that Jesus Christ is coming soon for His Bride. He has waited 6000 years for her.

The whole world is birthing right now and they see the same signs of the times as we do. However, they have rejected the only hope. They’ve determined to forget and reject God and build a man-made New Age of Peace and Prosperity here on Earth. So:

Do not fear
Get our eyes off of the world
and
Set our eyes toward the skies

Because our redemption draweth nigh.

When I received this, the pump was broken which was unfortunate. However, I love this product for my extremely curly

hair. Don't use too much or your hair looks greasy.
