Are You Ready

Are You Ready "And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years." Revelation 20:1-2 Our world is in turmoil and we can see the evidence that we are in the last days, from all the unrest and the threat of wars all around the globe. We are seeing a growing trend towards big government, and less and less power for the people, as our freedoms are slowly being taken away. People are becoming simply pawns of the government who want to control their life and control everything they do, and make them dependent on someone else. The days where people depended upon themselves for food, shelter, clothing and other necessities is slowly disappearing. The governments debts are increasing astronomically, and when the demand for payment comes due, there will be a great economic crisis on a world wide scale. We are seeing trouble in the middle east increase, and nations are coming under the control of those who have great hatred for the Jewish people, and the state of Israel. Chemical weapons are close to being used, and Iran will soon have nuclear capabilities. The world is looking for a savior, and one will come. He will be the Anti-Christ and will have great sway over the nations, and will have favor with all the peoples of the world. As Christians, we have the awesome opportunity to pray and to witness to those who are blinded as to what is going on in the world. We are not wrestling against flesh and blood but against the forces of evil. This should not be news to you however, as the Bible warns us this time is coming. It also tells us that Jesus will also return to claim all that have asked Him into their hearts. We will meet Him in the air, and He will reclaim the earth and all that have accepted Him as their savior. Our task is to be ready. Robert W. Brock My Daily Devotional Volume Seven​ June 26
