 Are you paying attention to what's going on around us? The enemy is strategizing to keep the church silent in the Gospel at bay. Those who speak truth are often labeled as bigoted, small-minded, or old-fashioned. Persecution is on the rise, but take heart. Even with great pressure coming against the church, it's important that we keep a victorious mindset for Christ has already overcome. The Gospel hasn't lost its power. The Great Commission will not fail. Christ is seated in the highest seat of authority. Don't be afraid or full of doubt. Have faith in God. A great harvest of souls is inevitable. The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. So instead of hiding in the corner and waiting for a retreat, advance. Move forward. Spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.
