DEAR GOD: You Are Our Keeper of Light, Victor Over Darkness~

Posted on by

The Light of Christ in a World of Darkness

My heart and spirit are highly grieved by the state of affairs in this world today.  My soul is crying and my heart aches from this suffocating evil that is swirling around today. It is an amass of sadness. It is horrifying and it is beyond human comprehension. It is traumatic and it can be overwhelming even to the most faithful. But it is our faith – that keeps us going – through it all.

  Jesus warned us – Matthew 10:15:

“Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.”

Jesus said this to His disciples as He sent them out—warning that towns rejecting the Gospel would face a harsher judgment than even Sodom and Gomorrah. There are so many who are “rejecting” the gospel openly and defiantly.  Those who have no regard for humanity, and who cheer in the face of egregious wrongs, and violent killings and senseless monstrosities of action.

Luke 17:28–30

“It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.”

Jesus compares the end times to the days of Noah and Lot—times of worldly distraction, moral decay, and sudden judgment, with prolific non feeling and indifference to all of their brothers and sisters – and His creatures as well.

What Mirrors These Warnings Today?

We see echoes of these warnings in our world now:

  • Moral confusion and inversion—where what is evil is called good, and what is good is mocked or silenced.
  • Rampant materialism and distraction—just as in the days of Lot, people are “planting and building,” yet spiritually asleep.
  • Rejection of truth—even in places where the Gospel is freely preached, hearts grow cold, and miracles are dismissed.
  • Violence, division, and desecration of sacred things—from the land to the womb to the sanctuary.
  • Open and careless destruction of human beings – and laughing and mocking in the aftermath of such evil perversion.

Jesus is victorious. He reigns now, not just in heaven, but over every shadow that tries to rise. No matter how dark the world may seem—how twisted, how desecrated, how wearying—His light is not dimmed. His promises are not broken. His return is not delayed by chaos. It is drawing near.

The days may echo Sodom, the nights may tremble with uncertainty, but we are not abandoned. We are the remnant, the watchful, the faithful. And we hold fast to this grain of hope:

“Behold, I am making all things new.” — Revelation 21:5 “Your reward will be great in heaven.” — Luke 6:23 “He who endures to the end will be saved.” — Matthew 24:13

One day, every injustice will be overturned. Every tear will be wiped away. Every act of stewardship—every prayer over the world, every defense of sacred land, every quiet obedience—will be remembered and rewarded.

So, we wait, not in despair, but in Holy expectation. Because Jesus reigns. Because He is coming. Because the victory is already won!

“LORD – We look to You knowing You are in control and that You defeated death, and You reign victorious now and always, may we cling to You and follow You through all the days of our lives, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

Gods Mercy And Grace

“Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.” -Psalm 90:2-4

 

 

The Eternal God: Before Time, Beyond Time

Psalm 90:2:4- speaks to the unfathomable nature of God’s existence—before the mountains rose, before the earth itself took form, He was. He is not bound by time, nor does His power diminish. From everlasting to everlasting, He is God. This truth is a foundation upon which faith finds its strongest footing, reminding us that before our worries began, before our struggles arose, before even our sins existed God was already present, already sovereign, already full of mercy.

The world changes. Mountains erode, seas rise and fall, generations come and go. But God remains, untouched by the passing of years, unwavering in His dominion.

Isaiah 40:8 echoes this truth: “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.” His Presence is not momentary or shifting—it is eternal, firm, and faithful.

This verse calls us to reflect deeply: If God existed before creation, holding time in His hands, how could any problem we face be beyond His wisdom? How could any burden outweigh His ability to sustain us? It reassures us that no failure, no sorrow, no fleeting trouble can alter the eternal goodness of His love.

Reflective Questions:

  • Do I live with trust in God’s eternal presence, or do I allow temporary struggles to shake my faith?
  • How can I honor His timeless nature in my daily walk, recognizing that His plans extend far beyond my own?
  • Am I grounding my heart in what is eternal, or am I clinging too tightly to what is passing away?

Moral Thoughts & Obedience:

Recognizing God’s eternal nature calls us to an obedient heart—one that worships not in fear of what is fleeting but in faith of what endures. We are called not just to believe, but to rest in the promise that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). That means submitting to Him fully, acknowledging that He sees beyond what we can grasp and trusting His guidance even when the path seems unclear.

 “LORD, You are from everlasting to everlasting—unchanging, unshaken, eternally faithful. Before the mountains rose, before the stars were placed in the sky, before time itself unfurled—You were. We bow in awe before Your majesty, Your holiness that spans beyond our understanding. Teach us to trust You as the Author of eternity, surrendering our fleeting worries to Your unchanging love. May our obedience stem not from fear but from deep reverence, knowing Your ways are higher, Your promises secure, and Your mercy infinite. Hold us in Your timeless grace and guide our steps to honor You in all we do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

Meditative Question for the Day:

How does knowing that God existed before all things deepen my trust in His plan for my life?

DEAR GOD: How Do I Protect Myself Against Evil People?

The Holy Spirit Leads Us Through the Valley of Circumstances - Hallelujah

We can’t protect “ourselves” it is God that does it for us. He reassures us that He goes before us on all levels and mentions it throughout the Bible. We can be careful while following His Word and the practicality of life in general. But it is God that goes before us. It is He that gives us the strength and the ability to sustain and maintain our morality and vitality in all things.

He is with us. No matter what. He goes before us at all times. We are to have no fear. That includes those who hate and despise us or are jealous of us.

Jeremiah 1:8 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

He commands us in many places not to fear, and to trust Him above all else. When we put our trust in God, he guides us, shows us, supplies us with wisdom. All these things fall under the auspices of His Sovereign supernatural power. He guides our paths. He brings us health.

Proverbs 3:5-8 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

There is no fear in humans or what they can do to us. They can’t kill our souls. Only God can. He created our souls only He can destroy our souls. He alone can do ALL things.

 

“Father God, thank You for protecting me in all matters of my life, day in and day out, You are my source of strength, I receive You and Your promises today and always, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
