Why Do Bad Things Happen?
Some folks look at bad situations and ask, “Why do these things happen?”
Some folks say evil in the world is caused by poverty, or lack of education, or other inequalities in the world.
Some say, “Well, it is just a difference of personalities.”
The Book of the ages tells us we are involved in a war whether we like it or not, whether we choose to admit it or recognize it. The only way to understand the battle is to go to the Word of God and see what God has to say. What He says may not be the popular opinion of the moment, but it is still the truth, even if it is an ancient truth.
Ephesians 6:11-12
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
In The Timeless Book we learn that all evil can ultimately be laid at the feet of the prince of the power of the air, the Devil. The Devil is the god of this world, and until he is put out of business we have to deal with his shenanigans.
God’s Word is a handbook on how to live in this present evil world victoriously through Jesus Christ. We cannot stop all evil from coming our way, but we can determine how we will handle it in our minds.
The Apostle Paul had some tremendously evil things happen to him in his life. When evil came his way, he did as many have done in the past; he called upon The Almighty for help. And help He did.!!!
Paul wrote at one point that he wanted the people of his time to know about the trouble he had in Asia, that he and those that were with him were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that they despaired even of life: But he also wrote that they did not trust in themselves to get out of the situation, “ but in God which raiseth the dead. This great Apostle also wrote that we are more than conquerors in every situation through him who loved us.
We may be cast down at times, but we are never destroyed because God has given us the victory through Christ Jesus our Lord. We can claim that victory in our lives every moment of the day. We may not know the details of each battle that we have yet to fight; but having read The Book and having read the end of The Book, we know that the cause of all evil dies to live no more, and we live to never die. So put on your armor, wake up and fight!
Till the devil, death and hell are cast into the lake of fire,
