SURVIVING IN AN UNCERTAIN WORLD
November 13. Acts ch 21-23
SURVIVING IN A WORLD OF LIES AND CONSPIRACY THEORIES
““Behold, as for the proud one, His soul is not right within him; But the righteous will live by his faith.” (PERSONAL FAITH)
Habakkuk 2:4 NASB1995
“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “But the righteous man shall live by faith.”” Romans 1:17 NASB1995
GOOD DAY. Do you feel what I feel? How does one survive in a world of contra and counter conspiracy theories and you don’t know what is true and what is not. Every establishment is interested in their own gains and how they can keep the whole of humanity under their grip. Today they formulate that one food is good, and in a few months, you get a serious counter report on how damaging the food is. A group will say some medication is best, another group will come up with a counterclaim. The naturalist will say orthodox drugs are a big pharma game of exploiting people and making money only to come up with the natural alternative that is beyond the reach of the common man. Every group says they are fighting for the masses only to discover that all is for self interest. It is such a world in disarray.
How then does one survive in this kind of world? Prophet Habakkuk lived at a time like this when wickedness came with a lot of masks. He took the matter to God and see the reply he got from God.
““Behold, as for the proud one, His soul is not right within him; But the righteous will live by his faith.”
Habakkuk 2:4 NASB1995 (PERSONAL FAITH)
It means that these groups of people making various counter proposals will not stop till perhaps the end of time; however, the just or righteous person shall live by his (PERSONAL) faith. If you are wondering what to believe or how to survive at a time like this, then ask ‘how do you generate your faith’? You generate faith from what you hear.
“So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.” Romans 10:17 NASB1995
This is faith in Christ but the same principle applies to faith in other things as well. The more you hear of a person or system or thing, the more faith you have in it. This is why a lot is pumped into advertisement and social media. You then build your faith in the person or system by trying what you hear and seeing the result. If you want to be stable in this constantly changing and uncertain world, you need to choose what to believe and understand it enough to live by it. You should also determine the result that you desire from your belief system. It is your belief system that you should be rooted in and let it motivate you to take actions no matter what any conspiracy theory states. Your faith should be the center point of your thoughts and action. Whoever must live a stable life must be anchored in his faith.
PRAY: Dear Lord, help me to understand you enough to have an unwavering faith in what You say in Your word.
