I have taught this truth from Scripture, to number our days, for many years now, oftentimes in funeral sermons and eulogies. God has taught humanity for many thousands of years that man typically has only seventy years unless he is totally blessed and lives into his eighties. We have all witnessed precious souls, like my younger brother, who only lived one week, and my blessed grandmother who lived well into her hundreds. We have no way of knowing just how long we will be given to live on this planet, so it is necessary to number our days making every day count. Although we could only trust in the providence of God for my younger brother, my blessed grandmother had learned well how to make the most of every day to the glory of God. Contrary to how old we are and the trials that we are currently facing, we can still learn together how to number our days by making every moment of every day count for the best. If we don’t then time will fly by as a watch in the night as if our time on earth never existed; a thousand years in your sight would be like yesterday when it is past (Psalms 90:4-6).

There’s Power to Stand Firm
We are all facing unprecedented times with the next election in the United States looming closer and closer. There is a lot of apprehension as to which candidate will be elected and the formidable consequences facing all of humanity. Most Christians rely on whatever power they have to stand firm and not be led astray by the great deception. Unfortunately, many are relying on their own choices to determine their best course of action. The good news is that God has given us great power to stand firm on His truth alone and not be swayed by the world’s teaching, much of it manipulated by the powers of darkness under the cloak of religious morality. Yes, we all see the great daggers cast at the other political party; one claiming the other side is the “enemy within” essentially destroying everything Christ stands for and the other claiming the other side is on the dangerous path of “fascism.” Now, some on the right are going so far as claiming the other politician is the Antichrist as they fear the worsening depravity will bring us to the precipice of Armageddon. We must not be swayed by every political hyperbole or fine-sounding argument. Let’s examine everything with a sound mind. Last week we wrote about “Seeing Through A Glass Darkly” returning to the source and interpreting Scripture properly, today we will talk about the great power given to us to stand firm on the truth we have received.

Let God Lead You In Your Thinking
I have previously written much about how Satan and the powers of darkness are trying to lead you in your thinking. Everywhere we go, everything we see, and everything we listen to, Satan is right there trying to influence your thinking and your every thought. As we draw closer to the end this will increase exponentially. It will increase to the point of mass confusion where everyone is choosing their own path and expressing their own opinions. So, we must ask ourselves, are the thoughts coming from God or the powers of darkness? Remember, Satan has always been an expert at quoting scripture often out of context and totally unrelated to what God really wants to say to us. It may sound good and even cause us to rejoice believing that we just got a word from the Lord. It may even make perfect sense about our present situation or circumstance. So, you might ask, why is Satan doing this? What is the point? Well, the point is Satan does not care what you think about, nor does he really care what you do, but he does care if you listen to God and follow His express will for your life. Satan knows the moment you start listening ONLY to God’s voice and His direction for your life, then he will lose the war for your soul. He will be defeated.

What’s Really Wrong with America? (Video)
If we could open the door and see what’s really wrong with the world and particularly with America, what would it be? We could easily say its lawlessness or the lack of love and acceptance that’s created numerous divisions, which continue to splinter to even smaller groups. Or we could take a bolder approach and say its humanity’s rejection of their Savior, Jesus Christ, that’s causing the problem. All this is true but let me suggest that we use a scalpel instead of a sword to look at an even deeper truth that has adversely affected every single person upon the planet since the fall.

A Critical Time for Getting Direction from God (Video)
If God is really your friend, then you want to listen to Him. We need to hear what God really says, and not what we think He says. I can’t overemphasize how important it is to speak with one unified voice from God, who is One. This is a very critical time, not only for our country but for the entire world that needs explicit direction from God. After watching this video on my secure website, produced specially to help God’s children to stand firm, please share it with others.
