Good morning, everyone! I hope you're all doing well. Today, I'm thrilled to share some insights from the Bible, a source of guidance and light in our lives. But first, let's appreciate our amazing worship team and my wonderful wife, who has been my partner in life and faith for over four decades. We're blessed with a beautiful family, and I'm excited to share that I have a book coming out soon, focusing on the spirit, soul, and body, and how we can live in alignment with the Holy Spirit.
The topic for today is "The Last Days." It's a subject that many of us ponder, especially with the current events unfolding around us. I want to address a few questions that might help us understand the times we're living in and our role as believers.
Let's start with Israel, a nation that holds a pivotal place in biblical prophecy. The history and the ongoing conflicts in Israel are not just political but deeply spiritual. The Abrahamic covenant, as outlined in Genesis, promised the land of Israel to Abraham's descendants. This covenant is still relevant today and is a key factor in understanding the tensions in the Middle East.
As followers of Christ, we are grafted into this rich history. Our support for Israel is not just political but stems from a deep spiritual connection. It's crucial to discern the spiritual battles behind the physical conflicts and stand firm in our faith and support for God's promises.
The spiritual warfare around us is real. The battle is not just against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces. Understanding this helps us navigate the complexities of the world with faith and wisdom.
As we delve deeper into the topic of the last days, it's important to equip ourselves with knowledge and understanding. Here are some key points to consider:
In conclusion, as believers, we are called to be lights in these last days. By understanding the spiritual significance of current events, especially concerning Israel, we can navigate these times with faith and hope. Let's commit to praying for peace, standing firm in our faith, and spreading the love of Christ in a world that desperately needs it.
