Overcoming The Difficulties Of The Latter Times

 2 Timothy 3:1-5

It is people in the world that make the latter times perilous.

We have perilous times because we have perilous people.

People become perilous because of the kind of spirits that have gone out into the world.

1 John 4:1

The spirits of this age are making people very difficult and hardened.

It will take more than having money to overcome the challenges in the world today, and the challenges to come upon the world.

There are challenges money cannot solve.

There are challenges money cannot fix.

Money does not cure many illnesses and diseases in the world today.

At best money can get you medical treatment and medication that suppresses the ailment.

Money does not cure, it only gives you options.

There's so much emphasis on money in our generation, unfortunately many have allowed money to replace God in their hearts.

Matthew 6:24


The spirit with an individual will determine how well that individual prevails and triumphs in these times.

God's Spirit and presence is a necessity at this time.

The Spirit of God is your biggest asset in this day.

You need God's divine presence.

Luke 24:29


Daniel was a man who lived in an ungodly and perilous environment.

He triumphed in the midst of setups, wickedness and attacks against him.

The same can be said about his friends - Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego.

God's presence with Daniel and his friends is who saw them through their challenges and delivered them.

Daniel 3:24-28


If you want to escape the traps, evil schemes, and conniving of the wicked in these times you will need divine presence.

Daniel 6:1-28

The end times is a time of betrayal according to the scriptures.

Matthew 24:10

Daniel was betrayed by colleagues.

Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego were betrayed by those who were close to them but envied them.

Babylon of old can be likened to the state of the world in the latter times- ungodly, evil, and perilous.

Daniel, Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego can be likened to the saints or the church.

Just like Daniel and his three friends we will need God's Spirit, God's presence to prevail in a dark world.


May the Spirit be with you!

John 16:7

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
