"Do Not Fear The End Times"

I watched a very encouraging message this week by  a messianic rabbi, Jonathan Cahn, in which he

said those very inspiring words: "Do not fear the end times." He reminded the audience that though the end times are full of fearful signs to the world and  persecution against both His people Israel and the Church of Jesus Christ, they are also a sign if impending return of our Lord and wonderful sings and wonders of God among those of us who remain holy and faithful to Him.

God is doing amazing things around the world, and we should not be afraid or discouraged by the evil we see daily around us. Instead, we must come closer to the Light and be more dedicated to what is holy and good, only then we can overcome the darkness that is deepening day by day.

But in the deepest darkness the light always shines brighter. We are living in the times when the culture of the world is hostile towards the gospel of Jesus, just as it was when our message just began to be preached. And we know what happened. The empire that persecuted the Church and destroyed the Temple fell apart, her might is no more. So, it will be with that last of empires that is rising now as well as with any other anti-Christ ideology or movement, such as Islam.

The more they will persecute the Church, the greater their fall will be. We must have a long view of things, just as our eternal Father who has an eternal view of things. He may allow evil to triumph for a time, just to uproot and destroy it completely later on. He is the one who fights our battles, so do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but can do no harm to your soul. The victory is on our side.

Below is the link to that video message. Please watch it in your free time and do not fear the end times. I dedicate it especially to our brothers and sisters in Russia, who are also mentioned in this video.
