Handling Corruption

This is not Breaking News: Our world is corrupt! I know, this is not a pleasant thought for a Monday. But the corruption in our world affects everyone of us. However, there is a way we can escape the corruption which is caused by the evil desires of men. The word of God says that we can have grace and peace in abundance if we devote ourselves to seeking knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ our Lord. It says, “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.” In this we may participate in
God’s divine nature thus escaping the corruption in the world.

Study the word of God and pray. In this your fear and anxiety concerning the evil in our world will lessen. Peace and grace in your life will increase. Knowing more about Jesus and the precious promises of God will strengthen  and prepare you for anything the world does to you. Remember, “If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31 “You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” 1 John 4:4 Christians, we’ve got this! We are winners, overcomers. Don’t let this corrupt world frighten you or get you down.
