Why Is Everyone on Edge?

Why Is Everyone on Edge?

When you can't hide the threats...

Defensive people push... and those threatened rarely ever lead in the right direction.

Favor with God means favor from God.

Leviticus 26 ; 2 Kings 8

Terror and fear and misery... they have a way being a three cord bond that's not easily broken.

Beyond popular belief, sometimes the three are a grace gift to reveal a waywardness within the hearts and lifestyle of those that bear the name of God. Remember this... ignorance is not your friend. Well, let me qualify that, being ignorant of God, His irreplaceable word and His kingdom ways is not your friend.

It's usually an automatic assumption that terror, fear and misery couldn't be FROM the Lord... because Paul told Timothy that God will not give us a spirit of fear. And that is true... but it's a conditional truth! Let me explain. We must consider what His entire word reveals about a kingdom principle before we run with a thought and blank check on what we've heard someone say what God can or cannot do. We must ask, "What else has God said about fear, terror, misery, peace, joy, faith, hope and love?" ...if we're going to understand the conditions that usher these things in our lives.
