IN CHRIST: ALL THINGS WORK FOR OUR GOOD

As we watch for and anticipate the Soon Return of Christ Jesus
In answer to the Prayers of the Saints down through the Ages,
Combined with those of our own,
That the Kingdom of God come and His will be done on Earth as in Heaven;
Which is as Certain as the rising of the Sun every morning.

As we watch the Wickedness of mankind become greater every day.
Knowing that this will Culminate, as Scripture has told us,
In this Wickedness causing the love of most to Grow Cold;
In a Great Apostasy among God's people that is already underway,
And that the Whole World will receive the “mark” of the Beast
And worshiping him.

We know and understand that God Almighty pursued every person,
Revealing the Truth to them, but Most REFUSED TO LOVE THE TRUTH
(2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)
Yet, all of this will work for our good.

We are assured and know that [God being a partner in our labor],
All things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good
To those who love God
And are called according to [His] design and purpose.

For those who He foreknew--
Of whom He was aware and love beforehand--
He also destined from the beginning (foreordaining them)
To be molded into the Image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness],
The He might become the First-born among many brethren.

And those He thus foreordained He called;
And those who He called He also Justified--
Acquitted, made Righteous, putting them into Right Standing with Himself.
And that those who He Justified He also Glorified--
Raising them to a Heavenly Dignity and condition [state of being].

What then shall we say to [all] this?
IF GOD BE FOR US, WHO [CAN BE] AGAINST US?
Who can be our Foe, if God is on our side? [Ps. 118:6.]

He who did not withhold or spare [even] His Own Son
But gave Him up for us all,
Will He not also with Him freely and graciously give us all [other] things?

Who shall bring any Charge against God's Elect
[When it is] God Who Justifies—Who puts us in Right Relation to Himself?
(Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach
Those whom God has chosen?
Will God, Who acquits us?)

Who is there to Condemn [us]?
Will Christ Jesus, the Messiah, Who died,
Or rather Who was raised from the dead,
Who is at the Right Hand of God actually pleading as He intercedes for us?

Who shall ever separate us from Christ's love?
Shall Suffering and Affliction and Tribulation?
Or Calamity and Distress?
Or Persecution, or Hunger, or Destitution, or Peril, of Sword?

Even as it is written,
For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long,
We are regarded and counted as sheep for the slaughter. [Ps. 44:22.]

Yet amid all these things WE ARE MORE THAN CONQUERORS
And gain a surpassing victory though Him Who loved us.

For I am persuaded beyond doubt—am sure--
That neither Death, nor Life, or angels, nor principalities,
Nor things Impending and Threatening, nor things to come, nor powers,

Nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all Creation
Will be able to separate us from the love of God
Which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
(Romans 8:28-39, AMP)

Christ Jesus warned us all:
Be always on the Watch,
And pray that you will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be able TO STAND before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)

Today, the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
