The world is a scary place right now. If we look at the world and all that's happening, we will be afraid.
If we take our eyes off Christ we will be open slather for the evil one to make our fear palpable. It is of course, the direct opposite of faith.
We need more than ever to pray, read the Word and focus on the Blessed Hope of the rapture of the Church. We must keep the Sword of the Spirit in our hand at all times.
To know the Word of God and what He says in these last days, you have to be in the Word. If we are not, our Sword of the Spirit, the Word is going to be rendered useless.
Our battle in these last days is in heavenly places and the weapons of our warfare are not carnal. But to fight the evil one, we must be clothed in the armour of God and wielding the Sword of the Spirit.
We must remember to Whom we belong and know who we are in Christ. We are His.
The devil knows we are His and would love to snatch away our salvation if he could. But he can't take it, but he can take our peace and joy.
The days are dark, but The Day is approaching. Cling to Jesus. Take thoughts of fear into the captivity of Christ and fight the evil one with the Word.
We are born again- conquerors over evil through Jesus Christ our LORD.
Let us hold fast to our faith and not grow weary.
Let us speak of our hope and exude strength so that the lost will see that we serve a mighty King Who is coming soon. Pray for the lost that will come to know Jesus as their LORD and Saviour.
All that is happening is coming to pass as it must. Jesus is coming for us, but while there is yet time, let us pray for a revival with many coming to Christ.
Jesus has gone to prepare a place for us. Hang on to Truth. Devour the Word. Cling to what is good.
Above all, fear not! Maranatha!

John 14:1-2 Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
You have a beautiful site. I love your pictures. And yes, the Day is drawing near. I like how you remind us that through Christ we are conquerors.
