The\nquestion is \u201cAre you surprised that things are going the way they are in the\nworld today?\u201d You shouldn\u2019t be. It is all inevitable because there is a law of\nsin and death. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sin always produces calamity if there is no repentance.\nRighteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to any people. Moreover, it\nwas prophesied thousands of years ago by the prophet Joel 2:24 that these\nthings will occur and worse. But you don\u2019t have to participate in them because\nthere are two sides to the prophecy. There\u2019s the dark side for those that work\nin darkness and the light side for those who walk in the light. Not everything\nprophesied while we believers are here on earth. We will be raptured before the\nworst things happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SO WHAT DO WE DO NOW?\n<\/strong>We RELAX and WALK in the PEACE of God. <strong>HOW?\n<\/strong>Answer: Isaiah 26:3 \u201cHe will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are\nstayed on Him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your eyes on Jesus and on God\u2019s Word. Let his report\/Word\nbe your daily news because what you hear\/listen to is important in determining\nyour peace and joy in these troubled times. I encourage you to stay in the Word\nof God. It is life and it is what will keep you from experiencing any of those\nwoes of the world today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHOSE REPORT WILL YOU\nBELIEVE? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His report says: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You are rich.<\/li><li>He will increase you more and more.<\/li><li>He will supply all your needs according to His riches\nin glory by Christ Jesus.<\/li><li>By His stripes you were healed.<\/li><li>He will give you the hidden treasures of secret\nplaces.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I choose to believe the report of the Lord!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We\u2019ve all heard stories and the forecast of financial doom through the media, the health threat about the flu and everything else.
