Hand of God
The hand of God is moving. Recently, as I was praying about all the predictions, estimations and concerns coming in over the internet I had a vision of a hand moving and very active. It was moving people from one location to another. It was moving money and buildings and equipment here and there. As I watched this busy hand I realized that a veil was beginning to form between the busy hand and myself. Finally I could not see anything the hand was doing. The Lord spoke to my heart that the reason so many of His people are losing heart is because their fears and despair have formed a curtain between them and what His hand is doing. His hand is still moving and working but we can’t see it because of what we have allowed in the forefront of our thoughts and considerations.

Living Beyond Eclipses, Illusions and Fears
MARTY—While there are people in every generation who have illusions and fears about moons, eclipses and calendar dates, let us all fear GOD and walk before Him uprightly through all the comings and goings of signs and dates and books and videos on social media. In spite of illusions, may the people of God live fruitfully and effectively while perfect love is casting out fear created by those illusions (1Jn.4:18). “But against all illusion and fantasy and empty talk There’s always this rock foundation: Fear God!” (Eccl.5:7, Msg)
Dates, predictions and signs come and go in every generation and during and after the book writing and prophesying of it all, and after the hubbub, frenzy, fear and debates subside, creation is still left groaning for the manifestation of the sons of God. We are surrounded by masses who wish their lives were different. It would not do creation nor the miserable masses an ounce of good for sons of God to be manifest somewhere out there in the distant, eternal future. Creation is not groaning for the cessation of time but for the benefits received when the King’s sons/daughters rule wisely and authoritatively with their Father’s character and enablement in real time, in present circumstances (Matt.10:7-8; Mk.16:17-20).

WEIGH AND JUDGE
We are in a time when there is a great need to weigh matters and judge words rather than just taking everything that we hear and zealously trying to get it to fit into our theology and our eschatology. There are even some folks who are willing to adjust their theology to get it to fit words coming from voices that are continually predicting near events even though many of them have not come to pass. Some of those people and their words are finding acceptance because of what seems to be widespread fear and despair. If someone is in fear or suspicion, they can find a word that will accommodate it. (Let’s start a new fad: Let’s all go to the Word of God to interpret the Word of God instead of going to the news!)

It is time to come to balance and one of the best ways to do that is to realize who God is in this hour. His throne is not and cannot be shaken. His plan has not changed nor has He throttled back on His purposes in this earth.

Solutions to Present Challenges
Those trying/challenging circumstances that made a pronounced entrance into the
history books in the early part of the 20th Century drove some to excel. They also enabled some who had certain knowledge, skill-sets, personality wiring, and creativity to get traction in spite of the slippery pavement of uncertainty. For those who will stand on tiptoe and stretch their neck to look beyond fears, immediate obstacles and predictions based on limited knowledge, there will always be solutions and vision waiting that can be applied to present challenges.

Dates and Groaning
Dates, predictions and signs come and go in every generation and during and after the book writing and prophesying and after the hubbub, fear and debates subside, creation is still left groaning for the manifestation
of the sons of God. For many, these things are not about Jesus, they are about events. We must get back to a Christocentric message and lifestyle (one in which Christ is central, not just a ticket out of here). ”[ The Centerpiece of All We Believe ] So, my dear Christian friends, companions in following this call to the heights, take a good hard look at Jesus. He’s the centerpiece of everything we believe, faithful in everything God gave him to do.” (Heb.3:1, Msg)
