In this week’s news, we have the possibility of a nuclear attack dominating the headlines. The public’s reaction to this is painfully predictable. People are frenzied and scrambling about, the same way as when they were told killer particles were released from a Chinese lab.
I’m always amazed by the public relations campaigns that precede the dropping of bombs. Why would someone launching an attack advertise it ahead of time, except to get people to react in a certain way?
Manipulation is the sole function of today’s media and it works perfectly on a populace that’s disconnected from the Creator.
As we lose our understanding of the Word of God and outright reject it in some cases, we begin to lose our trust in the Lord’s provisions for us. Instead, we obsess over the possibility of our own deaths (which are imminent by the way) and turn to mortals for salvation.
God says:
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.
-Psalm 32:8-9
This is not to discount the possibility of a nuclear attack or to say that we should not prepare for disasters, but we should always be turning our focus Godward and away from the schizophrenic media. God alone will instruct us and show us the path in this life.
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
-II Timothy 1:7
Realize that you are no more at risk of dying today than any other day. This applies to the days of the staged pandemic as well. There is nothing to fear except your own soul being damned to hell for sin.
When it’s your time, God will take you, and when that time comes, the best-case scenario for you is a saved and washed soul.
Be led by the the bit and bridle of tyrants or put your faith in Jesus Christ.
