Our Blessed Hope And Great Redeemer

 There are many times in history when the people of God could have asked this very question: why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? It is certainly a question that many of us have asked over the years as we see an increasing hatred of God, a growing contempt for Jesus Christ.. His anointed Son, a multiplication of sin and evil and an ever greater distain towards those that believe in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ.. for the forgiveness of sins and life everlasting.
The Bible tells us that a time of great distress and terrible trouble is coming when a great global federation of ungodly rulers and corrupt nations will unite in passionate hatred against God. They will come together with a unified resolution to prevent the prophesy, second coming of Christ. In their satanic hatred of God, these ungodly people will seek to wrench away Christ's legitimate authority and His God-given sovereign right to rule the nations of the earth, in equity and peace.
 But knowing that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief.. we are a people who by God's grace ought to walk in spirit and truth. May we seek to conduct ourselves in holiness of heart, as we look for the coming of the Christ - Our Blessed Hope And Great Redeemer.
Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain?

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that in Your grace You have told us the end from the beginning and have promised that we are safe and secure in Your gracious hands.. Lord there are many individuals, leaders and nations that are raging against You and conspiring against the Lord Jesus Christ.. The world seems to be spiraling out of control. Thank You that Your Word stands fast for ever and that the day is coming when Christ will rule this earth with equity and justice - and You will break those that oppose Your plans and purposes. Blessed are those that put their trust in You and blessed is the Lord our God, for His mercy and grace endures for ever and ever, towards those that love and trust Him, AMEN.
