Please don’t worry about things you cannot change! God is bigger than your problems.
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.” Matthew 6: 25-34 (NIV). prayer #worry #trust #God #Christian #Jewish #Muslim
Here’s how we ought to behave as Believers.
“Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.
But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.”
Colossians 3: 12-16 (NIV).

Why are we surprised that the world hates us?
Didn’t Jesus tell His disciples what to expect when He sent them out?
Let’s pause and let the verses below sink in!
“Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and scourge you in their synagogues.
You will be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how or what you should speak.
For it will be given to you in that hour what you should speak; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.
“Now brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.”
Matthew 10: 16-23 (NKJV).

In a world gone mad, where evil is called “good,” darkness is praised as “light,” and bitter is sold as sweet — God’s Word and warnings ring louder than ever:
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!”
Isaiah 5:20-21 (KJV).
Our leaders are fighting wars on multiple fronts at once. Israel is under siege. America is stretched thin. Ukraine is mired in what seems to be a never-ending war.
China, Russia, and Europe are opportunistic players in this global crisis.
Favor from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is our only hope.
We don’t need another congressional hearing or another speech about red lines.
We need God’s wisdom!
Let’s stop scrolling. Bow our heads and pray as the Lord leads.
Lord Jesus, grant our leaders supernatural wisdom and discernment.
Expose every lie and deception.
