Are we listening to the right message? Are we playing it right?



From where are we getting the information? Is the source reliable? Is it coming right out from the horse’s mouth?

All of it is very tricky because there are many books, movies, even live testimonies, for instance, that are made to misinform, for a bad purpose, and the people who sell them not only are going to get money out of you but will fool you into believing their lies. That is how “the enemy” works. I know, because I get my information from the Holy Scriptures which is the Word of God and though there are people who do not believe it, many of its promises have already been fulfilled which proves its authenticity. Therefore I believe it, from cover to cover to understand even the political issues that surround us now a day. The Bible clearly states: For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6.12) And these forces possess the will of many who are only thinking on themselves and doing wrong things against our Creator like legalizing what is wrong or an abomination to God on account of the people’s weaknesses and certain “liberties” that have been proven to devitalize. That is why our world is falling into pieces, and so is our country if we don’t take care of it. Our country which once was a glorious leader due to our Christian faith is falling apart for letting those powers interfere with God’s commandments, but the Christian community is praying for help. Perhaps we need a Moses to lead us out of the slavery of the wrong doing to have God’s peace like Jesus spoke: Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give you. (John 14.27a)  So let us take it

And let us not question God of the way He chooses to bring His peace (different to the anti-Christ´s); or the “Moses” He has prepared to serve as an instrument. He knows best.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts. Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55.8-9)

Listening to other people giving their opinion that might be different from ours, on the radio or any other means of communication, gives us the conviction of how God is in control of everything in spite of what unbelievers may think. He gave us intelligence to choose wisely and to listen to the right message and act accordingly. We must trust in the Lord and do good (Psalm 37.3)

And to those who fear for the “Establishment”, let us not be afraid of what should happen because whatever the outcome, God already overcame, for:

The Lord nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples.
The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of His heart from generation to generation.
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom He has chosen for his own inheritance.
Behold the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope for his lovingkindness.
(Psalm 33. 10-12, 18)
