Sunday Prepper Bible Study- John 16:33
“In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
If your translation of the Bible says “In this world, you might have trouble” , throw it away. Jesus told us in this verse that we WILL have trouble. There is absolutely no way around it. Since the fall of man in the garden, this world has been broken. This is not Heaven and it is not supposed to be. Don’t expect good things all the time.
Sooner or later, hard times will come upon you. Whether it is a bad report from the doctor, a lay off from your long time employer or court papers that show up on your door step for something that wasn’t your fault, rainy days happen to us all. Perhaps it will be worse than that. Perhaps the collapse of the fiat monetary system is upon us. Jesus told us to “Take heart, I have overcome the world.” What does that mean? Does that mean the disease will go away, I’ll get a better job the next day or that the court case will be dropped? Does it mean a stronger America will rise from the ashes of this failed empire? Probably not. It means he overcame this world. He has made a way for us to be with him in Heaven. More than that, he will be with us to walk through the fire while we are here.
Everyday, as Christians, we should focus on our eternity in Heaven rather than this world which is quickly fading away like a morning fog. If we do that, we will be better prepared to get through the tough times when they come. And they will most certainly come.
If you are new to prepping or would like to learn more about how to prepare for tomorrow, please read our 7 Step Preparedness Plan. The most important prep of all is knowing GOD. Jesus said “what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his own soul?” Prepper translation: “What good will it do you to survive the coming economic collapse, nuclear war or even a zombie apocalypse if you don’t know you will go to heaven when you die.” A recent study found that 10 out of 10 people die! On that day we will meet our Maker. It only makes sense to be prepared for that day. Click here to learn more about knowing GOD.
Have a blessed week and happy prepping!
