What to expect about the future (Part 3)?

  • “And I saw. And behold a white horse! And he sitting on it had a bow. And a crown was given to him, and he went forth conquering and to conquer.” (Rev 6:2).

Whereas the antichrist will go forth conquering and to conquer, certainly the global elite will create new crises (more grievous than this one that we are living now) so that the antichrist can sort out and, thus, the terrified people can be more easily enticed to accept his world leadership.

It’s not in vain that Jesus warn us about this hazard:

  • “For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders; so much so that, if it were possible, they would deceive even the elect.” (Matthew 24:24).

I well know how much we long for ducking out of any predicament or ordeal. Nonetheless, if we don’t wish to be tricked by the antichrist, we need to hang on to Jesus’ promises and seek out to accept that His word be embedded in us (James 1.21) and save us from ourselves.

Of course, it is hard to give up our dreams and to accept the new reality in which Jesus put us through. Take the example of Joseph’s life. He lived four realities:

  • He was the favorite of his father;
  • He became steward of Potiphar;
  • He became jailer;
  • He became governor of all Egypt.

Certainly many people would like to live only the fourth reality. Notwithstanding, only can live this those who overpass the first three.

As Joseph, we need to be resilient, humble, meek, so that we can adapt with elation to the time that the Father prepared especially for us (see Ephesians 2.10).

Have a beautiful day musing on this.
