How do we cope with living in a world that appears to be on the precipice of devastation?
Some say that Bible prophecy scares people. I beg to differ. It’s the news headlines of our day that frighten those paying attention. Furthermore, a look at what Scripture says about our future prepares us for what lies ahead, produces hope in our heart, and generates a peace that truly goes beyond anything we can explain.

How do we get to such a place of such confident assurance amid the violence that threatens our wellbeing?

Recognize That God Is Sovereign​

God is sovereign over all things. He not only oversees the raging of the nations, but He also controls their destiny. Because of this, He’s able to reveal the distant future from ancient times (Isaiah 46:8-10). His ability to declare “the end from the beginning” demonstrates his sovereignty over all government leaders in our world.

What we see happening today is precisely what the Lord, through His prophets, said the world would look like in the end. Regardless of how chaotic our world appears, God will accomplish His purposes for both our lives and the end of human history as we know it.

The Lord’s supremacy over all things resounds in the words of Isaiah 46:10, “My counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my purpose.” He will not fail to bring us to glory and fulfill all His promises to us.

Believe What Scripture Says​

Today’s convergence of signs screams that the world is headed in one direction: God’s judgment on the ungodly during the Tribulation period followed by Jesus’ thousand-year reign over the nations. We not only see this sequence in the book of Revelation, but also throughout the writings of the Old Testament prophets.....
