OK

 OK by Bill Keller

As I was in prayer this morning the Holy Spirit said that the word people needed more than any other today is that it is going to be OK!

It is easy to get weary fighting the evils of this fallen world.

It is easy to get weary fighting the battles each one has in their own daily lives.

It is easy to feel defeated.

You see evil flourishing around you, you see the unrighteous prosper, you see the injustice that exists, you see all of the pain and heartache each day, and you can get down.

Let me give you a word straight from the throne room of God today . . . IT IS GOING TO BE OK!!!

We have the promises of God in His Word that no matter what is going on in the world around us, no matter what is going on in our own lives, it is going to be OK . . . because of Jesus!

It is easy to look at this fallen and sin-filled world and become very discouraged. A world that is living in utter and total rebellion to God and His Word tries to impose its false values, its evil, upon you, but JESUS is beside you. HE will never fail or forsake you. HE will walk with you through the quagmire of sin and unbelief.

For many, looking at the current circumstances can be very discouraging. Financial problems, health problems, marriage problems, addiction problems, employment problems, children problems, legal problems, societal problems, political problems, and a host of other unrighteous scenarios cause many to look at life and there is literally nothing to be hopeful about until you factor in the hope you have in Christ.

I can say with 100% assurance that it is going to be OK because of Jesus.

It is Jesus who has overcome this sinful world.

It is Jesus who allows us to live in victory despite the problems we face.

That is why the only hope for this world is faith in Jesus Christ.

Those who put their faith in anything or anyone else will not only go through this life never knowing the true peace, the true joy, the true abundance this life can offer, they will also be lost for all eternity.

God so loves the world, He gave His only Son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish (in spite of the challenges of life) but they will have everlasting life.

It is Jesus Christ alone who enables us to live this life in total victory and to dwell with Him eternally in total glory!
