A Better World Ahead of Us

Ps: 108: 10. Who will bring me into the strong (cannot be shaken) city?

Today More than 3.4 million infections confirmed in at least 212 countries and territories, including at least 2,50,000 deaths.

Coronavirus is now shaking the nations of the world, and it will Change the World Permanently

People thought Gulf Countries are safe to live, now people are fleeing from there

People thought European countries are safe to life, the whole world thought more than any country in the world America is safe to live

North Indian people thought Kerala is their Gulf and America, today they all are fleeing for life

All dream lands are becoming fear lands and all paradises are becoming problematic lands

Ps: 108: 10. Who will bring me into the strong (cannot be shaken) city?

But now we know that there is no place on this earth as safe place to live, no place as dream land and no place is paradise

2019 in Australia the fires burnt an estimated 186,000 square kilometers, and destroyed over 5,900 buildings - including 2,779 homes and killed at least 34 people.

The 2019 in California, ,860 fires have been recorded and total 259,823 acres (105,147 hectares) of burned land.

On average, 800 tornadoes hit the United States each year.

Ps: 108: 10. Who will bring me into the strong (cannot be shaken) city?

Everyone is looking for a safe place to live, a strong (unshakable) city to live – looking for a better world,

Place where there is no Virus attack, Wildfire attack, no terrorist attack, no heart attack, no Earth quake, no Flood, no Hurricane and Tsunami and no Tornado attack.

Who will bring me into such a strong (cannot be shaken) city?

I want to live in a strong city where there is no shooting, no war, no bloodshed, no accidents, no cancer and no divorce and no suicide.

I want to tell you, God’s people there will not be a better day ahead of us in this world, instead we are heading towards worse and worse and worse days.

Our Lord Jesus never promised a better world here on this earth for God’s children and a better life for His disciples on this earth

Lk: 21: 9-11. 9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

Paul’s warning about the end time:

2Tim: 3: 1-5. . But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. But understand this, that in the last days dangerous times [of great stress and trouble] will come [difficult days that will be hard to bear].

2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money (greedy), boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents (evil generation), ungrateful, unholy (wicked lifestyle) 3 without love (no affection in relationships), unforgiving (for everything they argue) , slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power.

Lk: 21: 35. For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth.

Since we are not of this world, we children of God do not need to be panic

Mk: 13: 23.. So be on your guard; I have told you everything ahead of time.

Mk: 13: 33. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.

Lk: 21: 36. Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

Lk: 21: 18. But, not a hair of your head will perish.

Ps: 34: 9-10. Fear the Lord, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing. 10 The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.

Who will bring me into the strong (cannot be shaken) city?

No one, in this world can take you and me to such a city which cannot be shaken by Virus attack, wildfire attack, no earth quake, no flood, no hurricane and tsunami and no tornado attack. terrorist attack, no heart attack, no shooting, no war, no bloodshed, no accidents, no cancer and no divorce and no suicide.

We are being deceived by the empty promises of the politicians that everything is under control and we will have a better tomorrow.

Hag: 2: 7. I will shake all nations, and what is desired by all nations will come,

Ish: 13:11. I will punish the world for its evil,the wicked for their sins. I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty and will humble the pride of the ruthless.

God Almighty is going to shake every nations because of evil and wickedness of the mankind:

There are more than 2000 churches are being closed every year in Europe and becoming Mosques, Museums, Art galleries, Theaters and Libraries

The sodomic sin has been legalized in many countries. Sin shakes the world.

Over 42 million abortions are taking place globally in every year.

245 million Christians in the world experience high levels of persecution for their choice to follow Christ.

It's often claimed that 100,000 Christians are killed every year because of their faith in Christ.

Gal: 1: 3. who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age,

Heb: 12: 26-27At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”27 The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain..

Heb: 11: 9-10. By faith Abraham made his home in the Promised Land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. 10 For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

But there is answer of this question: Ps: 108: 10. Who will bring me into the strong city?

Ps: 107: 7. He (The Lord) led them by a straight way to the strong city where they could settle.

As a child of God beyond this shakable hopeless world, we have a living hope.

Our dream land is unshakable, our promise land is a glorious place

Jn:14: 3a.I am going to prepare a place for you. 14: 2a. In my Father's house are many mansions t

Heb:11: 16. For He has prepared a city for them

1Cor: 15: 19. If we who are [abiding] in Christ have hoped only in this life [and this is all there is], then we are of all people most miserable and to be pitied.

Heb: 11: 38.. The world was not worthy of them.

15 Through Him, therefore, let us at all times offer up to God a sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of lips that thankfully acknowledge and confess and glorify His name. 16 Do not neglect to do good, to contribute [to the needy of the church as an expression of fellowship], for such sacrifices are always pleasing to God.

Mtt: 6: 19-21. . Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.

20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

Heb: 11: 13- 16. All these died in faith [guided and sustained by it], without receiving the [tangible fulfillment of God’s] promises, only having seen (anticipated) them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

. 14 Now those who say such things make it clear that they are looking for a country of their own. 15 And if they had been thinking of that country from which they departed [as their true home], they would have had [a continuing] opportunity to return.

16 But the truth is that they were longing for a better country, that is, a heavenly one. For that reason God is not ashamed [of them or] to be called their God [even to be surnamed their God—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob]; for He has prepared a city for them

Heb: 12: 28-29. .Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,

1Cor: 7: 30-31..Those who mourn, as if they did not; those who are happy, as if they were not; those who buy something, as if it were not theirs to keep; 31 those who use the things of the world, as if not engrossed in them. For this world in its present form is passing away.

Ps: 107: 7. He (The Lord) led them by a straight way to the strong city where they could settle.

Jesus said I am the way towards the strong city and mansions where you and me can settle for ever and ever

Why the Israelites couldn’t enter the promise land?

Lord made a serious complaints about them:

1Kg: 11: 33b. They have not walked in my ways

Lev: 26: 40-41. - They trespassed against me -they have walked contrary -I also have walked contrary unto them

2Kg: 17: 22. . The children of Israel walked in all the sins

Ps: 81: 12.. and they walked in their own counsels.

Jer: 7: 24. And went backward, and not forward.

14: 2a. In my Father's house are many mansions –

Take a U turn and submit our ways to the Lord –

Who will bring me into the strong (cannot be shaken) city?

Ps: 107: 7. He (The Lord) led them by a straight way to the strong city where they could settle.

For here we have no lasting city,

but we are seeking the city which is to come. For we are looking forward to

the city with foundations whose architect and builder is our God.

For He has prepared a city for US

And the Lord will lead us by a straight way to the strong city where we could settle.

Let us continue to serve the Lord with this hope and confidence
