Do you ever feel like you are all alone and that you are the only one who understands what’s happening? You are not alone. There are others out here who feel the same way. And we too when we try and warn our friends and family about what’s happening, many times they look at us and say, “That will never happen, things will continue on like they always have.” I’m sure they used to say this in Rome also.
And it can be frustrating as we see the majority slipping into a state of confusion and being deceived by the Strong Delusion (II Thessalonians 2). However, keep in mind that the majority has rarely ever been right and probably never will be right in this earth age.
I don’t like to say it, but its going to get worse before it gets better my friend. Eventually it will get to the point where the majority of the world will worship the false Christ and submit themselves to his Socialist New World Order. And they will love it!
As it is written in the Great Book of Revelation:
“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” –Revelation 13:8
Even at this time the stage is being set for his arrival as people everywhere clamor for hope, change, peace, and prosperity. If you think you are not popular among the majority now, at that time you are going to look like a fruit cake. The world will think that they’ve finally found peace and happiness with the false messiah and they are going to think you are a freak for not participating (Daniel 11). Even to the point where your own friends and family members will deliver you up to the false one. And they will put an immense amount of pressure upon you to bow a knee to him and to accept him as your Messiah.
Just as Jesus foretold us:
“But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them…And ye shall be hated of all men for My name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” –Mark 13: 9,13
But beloved fear not because you are not alone.
Our Heavenly Father is always with us. For during those times He will pour upon us the Holy Spirit like never before in history to give us strength and courage so we can stand and endure until the end (Joel 2). We don’t have to be afraid of anything. With God we are the majority! So when the majority casts you off as an outcast for not believing in their Socialist Utopia, remember the story of Joseph. Although his brothers forsook him and sold him into slavery, he was never alone, God was with him. This is not to say that Joseph never felt lonely there in that dark gloomy pit (Genesis 37). But he had the faith to know that God would see him through and that this was all part of the plan.
And just as Joseph’s brothers realized their error after Joseph was elevated by God to be second in command to Pharaoh. Your friends and family will one day thank you for all that you stood for and for all that you suffered as you stood for truth. And they will love you ever so much when this is all said and done.
It’s worth it my friend to stay the course, regardless of how unpopular you are in this world. And when you do feel like you are all alone, remember that you are no different than any of the rest of God’s servants, for we’ve always been in the minority.
As David, the man after God’s own heart, said in his prayer:
“Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; Hold not Thy peace at my tears: For I am a stranger with Thee, And a sojourner, as all my fathers were.” –Psalms 39: 12
God bless you as we approach these days. Hang in there. I love all of you, and more importantly He loves you, because you are a Christian Overcomer!
