God’s Faithfulness in the Midst of Chaos
In a meeting, suddenly my spirit was gripped by the reality of God. Then I started to see a vision like a movie playing with a fairly wide screen in front of me. I saw there was a very great battle. Bomb after bomb was launched into the air. The soldiers were running and attacking each other and many victims were scattered. Immediately I wanted to stop the vision because it was quite horrible and suffocating.
But the Spirit restrained me saying: “Watch further!”. Then I focused my eyes on the area in the middle of the battle. There I saw a ‘different world’ like a very cool, beautiful, and peaceful garden. There were many people in it who moved happily without being disturbed by the battle around it. I was amazed, even though they were in the middle of battle.
Then I heard the Spirit of God say: “Don’t be afraid! I will take care of My people and keep them in peace and joy. Even though this world is increasingly uncertain and it is predicted that it will get worse, I will be with My people and make it feel like they are living in Goshen and Eden where they are perfectly preserved.”
Instantly my heart was flooded with abundant gratitude. It’s true, our guarantee is the WORD OF GOD! When God spoke then actually it happened! So, our part is just to be grateful for what God has done.
Jeremiah 32:39-42 (NKJV) then I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me forever, for the good of them and their children after them. And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from doing them good; but I will put My fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from Me. Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul.’ “For thus says the Lord: ‘Just as I have brought all this great calamity on this people, so I will bring on them all the good that I have promised them.
The verse above has become very alive in my heart, and made me even more sure of God’s faithfulness and goodness. He never plans an accident, He always wants to do good to us, His people with all his heart. Our part is not difficult, just believe, something that is not difficult. We only love God and do His will only. That’s it! Living straightly is not difficult, it is very easy!
I want to keep thinking simple when looking at the future. God’s promise is yes and amen! I want to continue to focus on His Word and always be grateful. The rest is God’s portion! Amen.
