Courage? Discouraged?

There is a short passage in the Bible that reads, “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous! Do not be terrified nor dismayed, for the LORD your GOD is with you wherever you go.” This verse is found in the Old Testament book of Joshua 1:9.

GOD has indeed given us commands. Though this one was directed to Joshua as commander of the army, we need to listen carefully to these words. It is us that have entered into a great time of uncertainty about the future for this country. Evil, yes it is evil, that seems to have the upper hand right now. There have been many lies told as truth, truths have been withheld, deception appears to be at every turn. Even the news media is adding to this false narrative that some want us to believe as true. Up is Down. Left is Right. Bad is Good. Down is Up. Right is Left. Good is Bad. Confusing isn’t it?

But we are not to be discouraged or worried; not to be terrified of unseen enemies or dismayed by real and ‘false flag’ events. Like a lion, let us follow this command to be strong and courageous. For the Almighty GOD has given His promise to be “with you (and me) wherever you go.”
