Naniniwala tayo that the bible holds all the wisdom we need as we go on.
Saan?
Sa kung ano man ang dumating na pagsubok at sa katapusan. Maging covid19 man yan, o ang pagdating
ni Kristo.
Bakit?
Luke 21:11, Jesus says that one of those signs would be pestilences, “And there will
be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be
fearful sights and great signs from heaven.”
Parang old school yung signs diba? So nagbigay din ang bible ng makabagong signos na si kristo ay
babalik sa wakas ng panahon.
Matthew 24:7-8 (NASB) Jesus says, “For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom
against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes. But all
these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs.”
Birth pangs was used to describe labor pains, labor pains that signify that something is coming, that
someone is coming.
Marami nang plagues and pestilence na dumaan pero dadating ba talaga si Kristo?
Yes. Nananampalataya tayo na dadating siya. We must take note of the prophetic signs given by the
bible. At tulad ng panganganak, the more pain, nararamdaman natin na paparating na sya.
Isaiah 41:10, NKJV. "Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your
God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous
right hand."
Kapag natatakot tayo, kailangan natin maalala na ang Panginoon ay nagbilin sa pamamagitan ng bibliya
at ang sabi nya ay
Joshua 1:9, NKJV. " Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do
not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you
go.”
Inassure ng Panginoon na sasamahan nya tayo, hindi natin kailangan matakot.
Kaya tayong ipagsanggalang ng Panginoon tulad nang ginawa nya sa malakas na bagyo sa dagat,
Matthew 8:26, NKJV. "But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little
faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm"
Hindi natin kailangang matakot. Dahil mahal tayo ng Diyos.
1 John 4:16-18, ESV. "So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has
for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of
judgment, because as he is so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but
perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has
not been perfected in love."
Ngunit ano nga ba ang gustong ibigay ng Panginoon sa atin.
Luke 12:32, NKJV. “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to
give you the kingdom"
We are the Future Lawyers of Christ’s Kingdom, hindi tayo dapat matakot.
Deuteronomy 7:21, TLB. "No, do not be afraid of those nations, for the Lord your
God is among you, and He is a great and awesome God."
Eh paano kapag everything else fails but we chose to stand by the truth? Tulad ng nangyayari sa China
na sapilitang pagtatanggal ng krus sa lahat ng lugar ng pagsamba,
Matthew 10: 28-31, NKJV. "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill
the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Are
not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart
from your Father’s will. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear
therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows."
Psalm 23:3-4,
paano kung dumating ang panahon na kailangan nating harapin ang kadiliman?
NKJV. "He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His
name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me"
Isaiah 43:1-2, NKJV. "But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob, and
He who formed you, O Israel: 'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by
your name; You are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and
through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you
shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you.'"
Kaya sa mga panahong ganito, manalangin tayo sa Panginoon, nawa ay tanggalin nya
ang takot sa ating mga puso, lumagay tayo sa kaniyang presensya, kumalma dahil
alam nating mahal tayo ng Diyos.
Sabay sabay nating sabihing,
