Without Fear

The strong man down the street, the one filled with pride because he knows full well that no one in the area can best him, who throws his weight around, so to speak, exerting his will upon those he meets, he is going to die someday.

The wealthiest man in the world is not always the most powerful person my friends.

“And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.” (Luke 4:6)

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” (Matt. 28:18)

The Lord places all those that are in authority, whether great or small, for His purposes, and not always are they emulating His goodness and mercy, but many, if not most, have learned to feign it quite well. When we say that evil is growing exponentially, that wicked men are deceiving and themselves being deceived, we must realize these truths, no one is in any position of authority unless the Almighty places them there.

And so, as we travel through these days of the beginnings of sorrows, there is one thing that should never enter your mind, fear because of these days.

“For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.” (Romans 9:17)

Four hundred years of bondage for a singular reason.

Name any despot, any man that came to rule either over a nation or the entire world at that time in history, and you will find that for His glory and for His purposes the Living God placed them there. Here my friends, is what we are waiting for.

“And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.” (Luke 21:24)

Our adversary can only give what he has been given himself, and I do not pretend to know or understand how all this comes to be in the Spiritual realm, but Satan cannot affect those in authority towards his intended goal unless the Almighty allows him to.

Men of God, no matter what position they hold, can be tempted, can be deceived, it is not that they will not serve the desires of Satan, they cannot. God will not allow it. I speak of those in the highest positions of authority, rulers over nations, no man of God, called for His glory, can intentionally and with intent of malice, serve evil, that man, if he did so, would not be born again.

“A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.” (Prov. 16:9)

Not only the steps of the righteous, but the steps of those wicked men, that for His purpose He has placed in positions of authority. He did it to Pharoah, Nebuchadnezzar, to those in power today. And as the Living God has done since Satan said, “I will,” He is using him for His glory as well in these days.

“The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” (Psalm 27:1)

The most powerful being ever created, just like that strong man down the street, is going to be gone someday, forever cast away, we, in the patience of our souls, and in the surety of the promises of the Most High, are not to fear what is now and what is approaching. We are to continue in whatever work that He has set before us, willingly, gladly, and with great joy and anticipation, without fear.

If you can understand the truths written here for you, then the fear of both the wicked and our adversary will begin to dissipate, for if indeed the Living God has placed wickedness in high places for His glory, then He has placed you, no matter where you are, for His glory as well.
