Don’t Worry The Apocalypse is Coming. Isaiah 54:10. NIV Movies come out about global destruction every season. In these doomsday movies a disaster of unimaginable propitiations threaten earth and a man or team of men who with courage and science and good scripting save us all. We are fascinated with the apocalypse, and we await the auspicious date of doom be it Y2K or 2012 or some other global catastrophe. Doomsday may be imminent since we live under the shadow global warming, nuclear disaster, even annihilation. The Bible says there will be an apocalypse, and a post apocalypse; a time where there will be a new heaven and a new earth, the old will pass away, (Revelation 21:1). No doubt that the new heaven and new earth will be far superior to the old. No one knows if any of us will live to see the days of Great Tribulation like in the movies but many of us have our own personal ordeal. Do not worry, instead consider God’s offer. “Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed says the Lord, who has compassion on you.” Isaiah 54:10 NIV Whatever your personal disaster the almighty God of heaven and earth loves you and sees you. The highest mountains are weak compared to Gods love. His love will never erode or crumble; it is not affected by the forces of nature or our universe. His love is above our disaster and reaching down into it to demonstrate to us his compassion. The opposite of apocalypse is peace, and God offers us a “covenant of peace” through Jesus. “Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, (Paul’s Epistle to the Romans 5:1). A covenant is a contract, or promise; and that the God of heaven and earth makes a contract is the most solid promise there ever could be. His promise of peace will stand high after the mountains are dissolved. Our part of the covenant is “Faith,” we must trust in Jesus. Jesus came to rescue us from the personal individual apocalypse of eternity without God’s love. He came to deliver us from death and to give us eternal life. He bought that deliverance by his own blood on the cross for us. We may never have peace in this world and may experience disaster but we will have something far better, “Peace with God.” If you are suffering through a personal tribulation then accept the promise of peace that God offers through Jesus. Your Friend Adron A prayer Father God, I am powerless to fix this disaster. I come to you in weakness, please give strength to my faith, And I ask for deliverance, from my life and my sin. I know Jesus came to bring peace, in my soul and with God. I know his death on the cross pays for my sins, Those sins have robbed me of peace with God I accept Your covenant of peace through Jesus. I trust Jesus as my Savior from this life. I will obey You Father God, even though trials come. I thank you for the peace You give me. Amen
