Jan. 2, 2021 (19th of 10th month)
On Oct. 24, 2015, I did a sermon called "The Devil is NOT the GOD of this World".
This week, Jesus has led me to refresh our memories on that sermon, as well as to see this truth in the new light (new context) of current events and future events.
Please listen to that old sermon from 2015 if you have not yet listened to it in the last 6 months.
It is linked below at the end of these notes.
Confirmation: On Dec. 29, the words came to my mind "the devil is not The GOD of this world. GOD is still in control."
Then just a few short minutes later, like 5-15 minutes later maybe, I was looking online and saw the words that "....GOD is in charge..... GOD is in control."
2 Cor. 4:4 Entire chapter.
:2 adulterating = handling deceitfully
1 Cor. 10:26 quotes Psalm 24:1 Everything belongs to Jesus
This doesn't mean that you can eat halal certified/marked foods.
What it means is that if you do not know that it is halal, then you are not held accountable for what you eat when others serve you.
Romans 8:28 All things work together for our good.
GOD appoints even the wicked rulers and allows suffering & persecution for our own sake, to build our spiritual and mental strength, so that we become strong, mature individuals. Not cry babies.
No matter who the president of the USA is on Jan. 21, GOD is in control.
He alone appoints kings & presidents & kingdoms & empires. He exalts them and He pulls them down.
No matter if there is civil war in USA, or if there is invasion in USA, or invasion in your nation, GOD is in control.
This doesn't mean that every pain and every persecution and every stumped toe is GOD's will.
(And it also does not mean that Americans must follow, honor, respect or obey or accept Biden. Biden will never be the true president, no matter what!)
But rather, that He controls the overall plan, and you are part of that plan.
He is the author and the finisher of our faith.
And whatever He has planned for us and for the world, will occur.
