THE ESSENTIAL MELT-DOWN

If there is one thing that we must learn from the current meltdown in the financial markets, and a shaking of the world’s economy, is that we cannot trust the various systems of this world. Our trust must be in our God. It is ironic that the starting point of this turmoil started in a country where the dollar note states “In God We Trust.” Yet that is exactly what we did not do. Instead we have placed our faith in money, and man’s ability (or rather clearly revealed now, his inability) to manage it.

A ‘melt-down” is probably the most accurate word to use. Before we can get pure gold, the ore has to be melted down in liquid form, and from this we will be able to extract a very refined state of the element. Our trust in the world’s system has melted down, and it is the correct time for us now to extract from this situation the pure kind of realities we need in order to overcome.

In the light of eternity, our money and material wealth are worth nothing, and cannot be carried forward into our future. Most of us know this for a fact. Yet, when it comes to living day by day, our worldview is framed by what we see in this world and what we work with in this world, even though we know that they will not last for eternity. We become dependent and in a large way have placed our trust in money in order to survive, even though we say we trust God.

What will last in eternity are the things of God, especially the Word of God. The Living Word of God is God Himself. In communicating to us, this Living Word comes to us in the written Word. God has allowed Himself to be understood in the written words of Holy Scripture. However, these written words are not to be understood only as coloured words printed on a white sheet of paper. Neither is it to be understood only as English, or any other human language. The Word, in written words, is more than just what we see on the pages of the Bible. They commit to us the very truth of God. The words in the Word are the truths of God, truths that last for eternity. When we believe these truths, we receive eternity into our lives.

2009 - The acceptable year of the Lord

2009—THE GLORY WILL SHINE!

Well what about 2009? Shall it be a time of darkness? Or shall this be a place where the Glory shines? Yes, the Glory is here. The Glory has come and things in 2009 that you thought were absolutely never, ever going to come to pass are going to happen so smoothly and so easily you’re going to say, “My, my, my, I don’t see why I ever was disturbed about that. Why, Glory to God!”
And it’s going to increase and increase and increase. And before the end of 2009 you won’t be able to recognize yourself or your nation, because the Spirit of the Living God will be moving in ways that you’ve only dreamed about up till now and you’ll be on your way to more wonderful and greater things.
Praise the Lord!
