When The Mountains Crumble!

"God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear when earthquakes come and the mountains crumble into the sea. “Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” (Psalm 46: 1, 2, 10 NLT)

It appears that all is falling apart, all around us, no matter where we look.

Chaos in The Middle East.
Chaos in Canada.
Chaos in Europe.
Chaos in Asian Countries.
Chaos in Africa.
Chaos in South America.
Chaos in North America.

Everywhere we look--according to media reports--there is chaos and unrest! People are rebelling against governmental authority across the world. Social media provides the means for many to instigate hatred and bigotry against and towards anyone who dares to offer a differing opinion about the state of the world and current events.

For those of us who know and understand God's Word--we know what time it is, yet we have no need to join in the uproar or fear, we simply need to be still and know--all of this has been predicted and is coming to pass--just as God showed it to us.

Yesterday, I wrote about the devil notching his belt every time someone falls under his influence and at this point, he must have started notches on more than one belt or--the belt he notches--is equal to the circumference of the entire world--and is being notched moment by moment.

Kids killing classmates, madmen running the streets with axes, angry people trespassing government buildings and shooting the innocent--when will it all stop?

When we are convinced as a people--united by the fact that we all belong to the human race--all created by God and Loved by Him and will be obedient to Him--the chaos and destruction will stop, but not until then. Will we see the change in our lifetime--within the next fifty years? It is doubtful, but we can remain hopeful that we will start by turning again to Him to loves us and will never give up on us.

Obedience to Him--our Only Wise God--provides us the space to not fear what man may do, but just know--if we will just be still and not worry, we will see the mighty works of God change nation after nation until peace is obtained throughout the land.

So, while it seems like everything is falling apart and the end is near, just be still and know that He is God and we have nothing to fear--even if we see the crumbling mountains fall into the sea--we have a home in heaven for all eternity. Our future with God is secure as long as we are obedient to Him in all things!
