WARS & RUMORS OF WAR

From the beginning of time, and after the fall of man, the perfect paradise of Eden was destroyed, demolished, never again to be the same. The real war against sin was underway. When we look at all the battles from then on, each one seems to be consumed with greed, lust for land and property, man’s inhumanity to his fellow man and everything that corrupts us – SIN! We’re even warned in the above Bible passage, Matthew 246, that there will be wars and rumors of more wars, but they must happen until Jesus returns to us.

Our news reports are filled with stories of hostages being taken – innocent children being killed, women holding tightly to their children for fear of having them snatched out of their arms. There is the more to war than the ugliness that we see on a daily basis. We are fighting a battle that has already been won in our own lives. The victory occurred many years ago when Jesus died on the cross to defeat Satan and give us eternal life. That war is over, but the battles go on. The devil is active and determined to make mankind his slaves and hold them captive within his own misery.

We will see these wars and hear rumors of more as time goes on. There’s no escaping man’s desire for more. Knowing that our victory has been won and we are assured a place in heaven, death no longer holds the sting it once did. What can we do about the situation currently going on in Israel and Ukraine? Please don’t underestimate the power of your prayers. God hears them. He is in control. He will always be with you.

Dear, Heavenly Father,

The world is very evil. The wars around us prove that. Only you can bring peace to this world and it starts with our returning to a relationship with you. Wars have been waged for centuries, but you alone have won our eternal victory. Heal our land. Help us to come to you in prayer, repentance and the knowledge that you provide a solution for everything. In Jesus name, Amen!

About atimetoshare.me

As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

    And these are the only two on the News. There are wars around the world, but they only attract the local news. We need to all pray. Thank you.
