Someone on another thread wondered if we will ever get back to normal. I'm guessing she meant living the way we have been accustomed to for the past 60 years. My thoughts on her comment were as follows:
"I don't believe we will get back to what we thought of as normal. These are the end of the end times and the new normal is different from anything we ever experienced before. People will become used to being controlled by the government and living in fear of disease."
Born again believers are not fearful but they are often astounded at what they see because they realize they are watching the end times prophesy unfold before their eyes.
We all believed prophesy but didn't realize many things that were being done in the government were happening, they were hidden.
Now that the government has learned how to work the emotions and perceptions of the public they know what they can get away with and how to manipulate many people to fall in with their deceptions.
Matthew 24:24
"For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect."
1 Timothy 4:1
"But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,"
2 Timothy 4:3-4
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths."
2 Thessalonians 2:3
"Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,"
We do not want to be fighting with the authorities over things that are not against God. We can comply while we pray, praise God and keep on with what He has given us to do. We do not fear anything that is coming. God said He would take care of us and I believe Him. It just might not look the way we expect, since we have been pampered and indulged for many years.
We have all had far more than we deserved and far more than we needed. We have had so much that many people think some things are needs that are not needed at all, but playthings, indulgences and completely unnecessary.
We are all guilty of indulging ourselves because we could. Born again believers who understand what is important will not be in shock or devastated when their indulgences are taken from them. WHY???? Because they have Christ and they know He has a purpose for us.
Romans 8:28
"28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."
This verse was written for every born again believer alive today. We all have a purpose, we all have something to do that God wants us to be engaged with before He comes to take us Home. No assignment is too small.
There is an old saying: "Nothing is too small when God is in it!"
Whatever He tells us to do we do with gusto without wondering or worrying is it big enough.
Matthew 16:24
"24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me."
