Insurance Versus Assurance. Part [14] 04/14/2025 (Morning thought)

Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

The Bible prophets predict a dramatic increase in the frequency and intensity of storms tornadoes, wildfires hurricanes and earthquakes, and because we know that God’s word never fails, it behooves us to position ourselves intelligently, based on the info He has given in His word. As it pertains to assurance versus insurance, we will need to follow the direction God will give us in some circumstances.

We are strongly advised, both in the Bible, and in the writings of the servant of God, to remove to the country wherever, and whenever we can. In doing so however, we may want to consider that passage we read of earlier, which says: “Where two or three are gathered together in My name, there I am in the midst of them. Thus, in following the counsel given, God may direct two or three families to make their move to some particular location, so that there would be a heavy concentration of holy angels in the area, to stave off whatsoever may be coming down the pike.

This will also provide much needed support systems so that in the event of emergency and calamity, you would not be out in the boon docks all alone. This is not to say that God cannot or will not protect the singular Christian living in the boonies; He can, but there is very strong evidence in the Scriptures for joining forces with other believers.

Acts 2:44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common; 45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. 46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

Insurance Versus Assurance. Part [13] 04/14/2025 (Evening thought)

Matthew 5:13 You are the salt of the earth: but if the salt has lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

When salt is sprinkled or added to food, it changes the taste dramatically, so that everything in your pot is affected. Similarly, God has sprinkled His remnant people strategically throughout the earth, so that in certain instances, the inhabitants thereof might be beneficiaries of His assurance.

[The Great Controversy pp 631] The Lord delights in mercy; and for the sake of a few who really serve him, he restrains calamities, and prolongs the tranquility of multitudes. Little do sinners against God realize that they are indebted for their own lives to the faithful few whom they delight to ridicule and oppress.

Acts 16: 23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely. 24 Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. 25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

Acts 16:26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
