This message has been over a week in coming. The Lord did not release me to release it till today.

On a day that turmoil in the financial world has engulfed all the stock markets and banks; where terrorism has struck in many places simultaneously across the globe we seem to be entering into a time of living in constant turmoil. This in itself is dangerous because once the fabric of our lives is threatened we immediately descend into violence and aggression. 

When I went to bed last night the Lord spoke to me clearly;

The deception that is the gateway for every evil to enter comes on the back of SELF PRESERVATION.

I was reminded of the words of Jesus;

He who wants to save his life will lose it but he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

This is the gateway to the Kingdom. 

The fact is hidden forces are producing this atmosphere of constant crisis and turmoil because on the back of self preservation will come every anti-God and Anti-Christ machinations . Because we crave for business as usual we will accept everything.

We need to see ultimately God is challenging our trust in the systems of this world.

We need to accept our enrollment into the School of Faith.

This school will teach us that the currency of our survival is the intimacy of faith. The same that Abraham was noted for by God Himself as being the Father of Faith.  A friend of God. 

It will be uncomfortable as we exchange our trust in currency for Trust in Christ.

We will have to learn the precepts of the Kingdom ECONOMY.  They are not as modelled as the world where speculation moulds the trading.

The Word is the bedrock for trading in the Kingdom where the promises are yea and amen in Christ.

Where terrorism comes with fear we must combat by faith knowing that they can only harm the body but the eternal assurance can only be given by God.

So my closing words are; do not get drawn into the whirlpool of turmoil.  For there is an agenda in it all. It is not God’s agenda. It is to rob the very attention away from Christ.

As you meditate in His Word may the stability of the Kingdom reign in your day.

Paul was persuaded that neither death or any negative thing was to separate him from Christ because he had seen Him and seen Him manifest. Rely today on that love of Jesus to make you enter that conquest that was won at Calvary

Shalom!
