Lamentations 3:21 This I recall to my mind therefore have I hope. 22 It is because of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
The third and final issue we’ll address, as it pertains to spiritual darkness enveloping the earth, is that of protection, which has always been of great concern to earth’s inhabitants. In our day, it has morphed into an issue which many persons have decided to take into their own hands, and for this reason, the rest of the Bible study will center around some of the truths which need to be understood about protection.
God generally protects all the peoples of earth, and this has become necessary, because our mortal foe only seeks to kill and destroy. Were it not for God’s protection, persons and dumb animals would have been wiped off the face of the earth, many years ago. But God’s mercies are renewed to us every day, and this is why we continue to exist.
However, there were times, and there will be times when for some reason, God’s protection is removed, and there are other times when God’s judgment has and will become due. There’s no need for such cases to be a reason for stumbling, for God has given to us sufficient light and knowledge in His word, to dispel the darkness that pertains to protection.
Psalms 127:1 Except the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain that build it: except the Lord keeps the city, the watchman wakes but in vain. 2 It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
