Christians Fight Back in the UK
Christian leaders across the United Kingdom are sounding the alarm as government policies threaten to silence biblical truth and erase the nation’s Christian foundation. The issue at hand this time is a proposed ban on “conversion therapy” – a term for helping someone get rid of unwanted same-sex attraction.

The government has promised to push this ban through as a top priority, …

European Billionaires Funneled $2 Billion Via Transatlantic NGO Network To Erode U.S. Democracy, Finance Anti-Trump Protest Machine
A new bombshell report by Americans for Public Trust (APT), based on IRS Form 990s and media reports, reveals that five foreign “charities” have funneled nearly $2 billion into American leftist nonprofits, injecting what can only be described as a far-left extremist European policy agenda and toxic social-engineering campaigns into U.S. institutions like cancer. The report alleges that these foreign influence operations, exploiting the dark webs of the NGO world, also bankroll part of the protest industrial complex that has waged an ongoing color-revolution-style operation against President Trump, his supporters, and seeks to dismantle the Make America Great Again movement.

The Rise of Radical Jihadi Clerics, Activists, and Political Operatives in NYC Supporting Mamdani

They are using what they call “racism” and “religious persecution” as their political and PR strategy, and with so many Muslims and foreigners now residing in New York City, it is appealing to the core voting base there.

What Is There to Fear? :: By Nathele Graham

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).

Too many news headlines are designed to instill fear into the minds of people. Powerful earthquakes shake the earth, volcanoes are erupting around the world, major hurricanes cause loss of life and homes, war is a theme of news headlines, and internal strife within nations are just a few of the troubles here on earth. Look to the skies and see major sun flares and sunspots, electromagnetic blasts shoot toward the earth, and I just saw a headline that Earth is surrounded.

What are we surrounded by?

Comets, or what is seen as comets, whose names sound like something out of Star Wars. There’s R2 Swan, A6 Lemmon, K1 Atlas, and the mysterious 3I Atlas. That last one has scientists baffled. Some reports say it has started sending out a signal that is not random static, but an intelligent attempt to communicate with us. This can all be unsettling for many people.

Remember, scientists have been wrong about many things, such as evolution. Brothers and sisters, what do we really have to fear?

Life has always been a heartbeat-by-heartbeat existence. Death is one thing upon which we can all be certain will come to us one day, unless we are taken Home in the Rapture, which is what I am praying for. Either way, Christians have the assurance of spending eternity with Jesus. That is a comfort. A wise person will have placed their faith in the Lord long before death.

He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever” (Psalm 111:9-10).

As we see so many unsettling things happening, we all need to draw wisdom from the Lord and live our lives to please and honor Him. Live in Him and find peace.

As Christians, we can live our lives in peace and confidence no matter what is happening around us. “[[To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth.]] God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah” (Psalm 46:1-3).

As I write this, Jamaica is in the middle of a Category 5 hurricane; they need our prayers. We aren’t the first generation to have fears, nor are we the first to experience God as our refuge and strength. God is greater than our greatest fears and is ready for us to come to Him in our times of distress.

In the United States, we have some earthquake faults that scientists warn may soon cause powerful earthquakes. The most famous is probably the San Andreas Fault in California. We are told that it’s long overdue for a major earthquake. Another one is the New Madrid Fault, which is on the Mississippi River. The most powerful earthquakes in America were along this fault, and it’s also overdue for a large earthquake. Many people live on or near these faults, and if they do give us a major shake, it could be devastating.

Do we live in fear?

Most who live in California or along the Mississippi don’t spend a lot of time worrying. I lived for much of my life near the San Andreas fault and felt some quakes, and now I live near the New Madrid Fault; I don’t spend a lot of time living in fear. Christians should have no fear. God is our refuge and our peace.

What if Yellowstone erupts?

When it does, the entire world will be affected, or so they say. There are volcanoes erupting all around the world, and they will continue to erupt until there’s a new Heaven and new Earth.

Did I mention tornadoes?

They do much damage each year. It was Paul who wrote, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain (Philippians 1:21).

Christians should be thankful and embrace the life God gave us; we need to share the Gospel. We aren’t to seek death, but Christians should have no fear about what might happen around us, even if it means death. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “If you can keep calm while everyone around you is falling apart, you don’t understand the situation.” I think that is better said as, “If you can keep calm while everyone around you is falling apart, you’re a Christian who trusts God.” There’s nothing to fear when your faith is in God.

Don’t get me wrong, some fear is healthy. I grew up where we had rattlesnakes. I surely didn’t want to be bitten, and that fear kept me from reaching into a place where I couldn’t see if there was a snake there or not. When I was riding my horse out in a field and I heard the distinctive sound of a rattlesnake shaking its tail, I changed my path. That type of fear is a way of protection.

Another fear that is a way of protection is seen in Israel. When the sirens sound, the people have a very short time to get into a shelter before a bomb strikes. This fear protects those living in a war zone, but other fears show a lack of faith in God. Let’s take a look at Saul’s army.

Saul was a very poor ruler over Israel. He was chosen to be king because God answered Israel’s plea for a king like other nations. I’m sure you’ve heard it said, “Be careful what you pray for; you just might get it.” Well, Israel got Saul. God had a great king for them, but David wasn’t quite ready. God answered their prayer with Saul while David was being prepared. When it was time to go to war against the Philistines, the army wasn’t well prepared for battle.

One day, David took some food to his brothers who were in the army. That’s when the Philistines brought out their “secret weapon,” Goliath. “And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid” (1 Samuel 17:24).

David’s oldest brother was angry with him for being there and mocked him, but it was their father who had sent David. Even though David was young and merely a shepherd, God had been training him for the kingship. David had protected the sheep against a lion and a bear, and knew about battle. David had done more than just watch sheep; he prepared to protect them.

He volunteered to fight Goliath and told Saul, “Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God” (1 Samuel 17:36).

David had complete trust and faith in the Lord, so what did he have to fear?

Saul tried to fit him with battle armor, but David chose to only arm himself with what he was familiar with. “And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd’s bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine” (1 Samuel 17:40).

Goliath’s faith was in himself, not God. He mocked David and underestimated him. David knew his strength came from God and therefore had no fear. With one stone and a slingshot, David caused Goliath to fall, then cut off his head. Saul’s army hid in fear, but a young man who trusted God faced the giant and won the battle.

Fear can cripple an army, but when God leads our battles, what is there to fear?

It’s human nature to try to solve our own problems. Only God can bring true peace, and one day He will. It’s Satan who causes our worry and distress. If we would only follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and honor Him, we would have peace. Fear causes us to make poor decisions and we must learn to calm down and trust in the Lord with all of our heart.

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah” (Psalm 46:10-11).

This isn’t the type of stillness that is done in transcendental meditation or yoga, which no Christian should practice. The stillness named here is to relax and rely on God to see you through tough times. Instead of you controlling the situation, give God control, and take the action He tells you to take.

What is there to fear when God is in control? Nothing.

The first step in having no fear is to repent of your sin and accept the offer of salvation which God has given to you through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Are you facing a medical problem that could result in death? You have nothing to fear if you have the Holy Spirit living in you. That comes from your repentance and acceptance of Jesus. Are you afraid of the comets in the sky? Don’t be deceived; study Scripture and trust God.

Satan loves it when Christians live in fear because it shows a lack of trust in God, and he can befuddle our thinking and actions. When a person doesn’t know Jesus, there is a lot to fear.

What if you are unsaved when you die? You should fear that. “And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell” (Matthew 10:28).

The lake of fire isn’t a place you want to spend eternity. God has sent Jesus to offer salvation to lost and fearful people, but salvation must be accepted by each of us individually. If you were baptized as a baby and think that brought salvation to you, think again. The choice to accept Christ has to be your own choice, not that of your parents. You must repent of your sins.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Romans 10:9).

Baptism won’t bring salvation, nor will following rituals or sitting in a pew. It must be your own decision, no works involved. You cannot do enough good works to earn your way into Heaven, but good works should be evidence of your faith.

If you have accepted God’s free gift of salvation, then what do you have to fear? Share the Gospel with others.

God bless you all,

Nathele Graham
