The Weight of the World

 So in addition to trying to kill us (succeeding in too many cases) with their vakseen bioweapon, and starting WW3 now they are also trying to starve us as well. Mr Biden's time if office has marked one crisis after another non stop with no end in sight.  So, what of it?  This hasnt changed:

Phil 4:8

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

and

Isa 3:10

10Tell the righteous it will be well with them,

for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.

11Woe to the wicked!

Disaster is upon them!

They will be paid back

for what their hands have done.

The other day this servant was thinking the walls are closing in on us as the enemy attempts to erase most of humanity from the face of the earth.  It started to feel like some serious weight being carried around when the Spirit of the Lord commented "I never intended for you to carry around the weight of the world on your shoulders."

Mt 11:30

For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Right, our shoulders arent big enough to carry around the weight of the world.  His shoulders however can carry any load.  The Lord went on to describe the mechanics of how we should be dealing with "the weight of the world."  

Ps 55:22

Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.

Phil 4:6

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

1 Thess 5

16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

So, do this ^^ while the enemy and his servants are doing their best to exterminate us from the face of the earth?  Yep.  The Lord explains things to this servant in military terms since yours truly "gets it" the best that way.  It comes back to the infantry soldier in a foxhole close to being surrounded.  What to do?  Use the daylights out of your radio.  A lone solider is just a soldier but a soldier with a radio can be a real problem for the enemy.  Radios can call in air support, artillery, armor support, naval support etc.  As Christians our "radio" is prayer.  So as the various thoughts and concerns arise throughout the day we do not try to carry them on our shoulders because we were not built for that.  We are to transmit all of the thoughts and concerns with our requests to Him who was built for that and has the shoulders to carry it.  Thus He tells us "pray without ceasing" and "be not anxious."

The worse things get in this world the more we must follow the orders given by our Commander in Chief to the letter.  The reason this world is in the mess it is in is because mankind decided to side with the enemy and "build back better" than the Creator Himself could.  Good luck with that-they are doomed.  

The answers we need have been available to us our entire lifetime.  The best selling book in world history is the book of answers.  So lets do what we were told to do and see how that works out :)

Grace and peace
