The LORD is for me; I will not be afraid. What can a mere mortal do to me?—Psalm 118:6
Humanly speaking, God’s people have cause for alarm and insecurity in our day— whether on national or international fronts, or simply as families, churches, and individuals. As has always been the case, the forces of Satan and evil are arrayed against the kingdom of God and His people.
Yet God has proven that He is more than able to strengthen, sustain, and support His people and to accomplish His eternal purposes, even in the midst of great turmoil and unrest.
Try as they might, no earthly edict, monarch, or efforts can hinder God from fulfilling His will. And when God wants to use someone like you to address a need or take an unpopular stance, no opposition can take you down. When you feel swallowed up and overwhelmed by the forces set against you and your family, know that a faithful, courageous minority in God’s hands can still make its voice heard in heaven and can be instruments of His will being done here on earth.
