Trust In HIS Protection

By THE SPIRIT the psalmist wrote in Psalm chapter 5:

​11 ​​But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;

​​Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them;

​​Let those also who love Your name be joyful in You.

12 ​​For You, O LORD, will bless the righteous;

​​With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

As the darkness intensifies so does the light grow brighter.  Nations are becoming polarized as the reality is setting in that there are no simple solutions to the problems each nation faces.  The U.S. has managed to grow due to its currency being accepted as the global standard but that era is just about over.  Other countries have effectively financed the growth and prosperity of the U.S. while they have suffered with less.  Fear and greed have been the basis of the current system which promotes scarcity among its participants.  I believe the current structure is coming to an end.

What will facilitate the end coming sooner rather than later?  The Truth being exposed for all to see.  This is one aspect of the ministry of The Holy Spirit and this exposure will cause the prevailing perception of how things ought to work to disintegrate before our very eyes.  Fortunes will evaporate and monetary systems will crash but those who “Love YOUR Name” will be joyful in FATHER for they trust IN HIM rather than man’s systems.  FATHER will defend and protect us as this global transition occurs.

FATHER has a history of delivering HIS Chosen out of harm’s way and we should expect HIM to do the same on our behalf because HE Loves us.  Our priority should be to change and align our hearts with HIS rather than expecting some external event to be the key to survival.  As we become mature IN HIM then we have positioned ourselves to flourish as the transition occurs.  Will there be turmoil and chaos in the world as this transition takes place?   I believe so but just as the children of Israel were spared during Passover, I believe we will be spared and protected as the world experiences judgment.

The end of an age is often accompanied by much turmoil.  In Mark chapter 13 Jesus described the end of the age:

5 And Jesus, answering them, began to say: “Take heed that no one deceives you.

6 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and will deceive many.

7 But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet.

8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

What should you and I be doing in preparation for such a time as Jesus described?  We should be equipping ourselves by aligning ourselves with FATHER’S Divine Intent and plan.  Where HE is there is no sorrow.  Where HE is there is no turmoil thus if we are with HIM then we will be spared the pain and suffering.  Jesus provides us with perspective of who is not “aligned” with FATHER and Him in Matthew chapter 7:

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

If you are practicing lawlessness then you are not under FATHER’S protection.  However if you are walking in Love and Truth then you will be lawful and under HIS full protection.  It is our choice of what path we take and what we should expect as the chaos increases.  I cannot overemphasize the importance of dealing with the internal rather than simply focusing on the external.  If the internal is taken care of then FATHER will take care of the external by leading us safely through the challenges ahead.  If we have been prepared internally then we are well equipped to affect the external under HIS direction.  We will not hesitate because we trust in HIS protection.
