What Lies Ahead?

God knows what He wants to happen in our world and in each of our lives. Every living soul is posed with the decision of whether to heed the leading of God or to choose an alternative. Many are struggling to define God’s purpose and will for today while others are literally giving their life’s blood in the name of Jesus. All over the world, every person has that choice and God’s Spirit is striving with us all. But, it shall not always be this way because the Bible says, “...My spirit shall not always strive with man...” Genesis 6:3.

God is dealing with all of us, urging us to follow His path. For some, God will make His presence known in a very strong and profound manner. For others, it may be less conspicuous. However, God will expose the world to His influence and every person will make the choice to follow or not. We choose the course of our lives and the inevitable end of that choice.

The leaders of governments are making decisions today that will bring them and their system of government more in line with the justice and rule of God’s law or their decisions will put them in opposition to God. It is called “anti-Christ” and the leaders of nations are making that choice today. Those choices will put them on an inevitable collision with the judgment of God. Many have already made their choice and are suffering the pains of Divine judgment. 

Our heavenly Father knows the way that we should take. Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” We must walk close to Him so He may convey His direction to us. He will direct our steps if we will hear and obey His voice. John 10:27, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:” Our relationship must be such that we will hear and willingly consent to His guidance. He will lead us! He will be all that we need Him to be! If we put our faith and trust in the Lord Jesus, it’s not so important What Lies Ahead!
