Stand Firm!

CALLED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS



We are living in the best and the worst of times. Jesus said that a mans enemies would be those of His own household. Perhaps you are one that is living in this situation. Jesus spoke about it and forewarned us that this would happen. We are told to take up our cross and follow Him. It seems that the division is becoming greater and greater and that we have nothing in common with those that are of this world. Be of good courage today for the Lord is going to strengthen your heart. As I looked out into the sky and saw the dark clouds, the sun shone brightly through. Your light is shining and the Lord is saying stand firm. You have taken on My name and it is because of Me that your are being persecuted for righteousness. Stand strong, be still and allow Me to fight for you. I am mighty in battle and am working on your behalf. The light shone in the darkness and the darkness comprehended it not. Unless the Spirit of God draw a man He cannot come so pray that those that are opposing you are drawn by My Spirit. Else the Spirit of God draws a man He cannot come to Me. Be of good cheer for I overcame the world and you too will overcome.




1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. John 1:1-3
