The Word of God was written to help us know God, but it can also help us to cope with our current situation; that’s why we call it the living word. It seems like everything I read in the Bible points to what is happening right now. 

He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him. Colossians 2:15

We cannot forget this verse as we hear devastating news spewed all day and all night. Our world is not coming to an end; it’s the end for the powers and principalities, or as this verse says, the rulers and authorities. You see a last-ditch effort to confuse us and take our minds off the truth about what is happening. Our power to overcome lays squarely on the shoulders of Jesus, and he has already triumphed over them. We are seeing them scrambling to try and save themselves, and because there is no truth in them, their lies have become bolder. When you hear the news, remember we are safe from the consequences they face. The end is coming, but it’s the end of them, not us.

Generations have been waiting for this moment, but we are the ones chosen for such a time as this, and I couldn’t be more excited!
