Conspiracy Theory

Posted in Fear, Trust, Worry, tagged on March 17, 2011| Leave a Comment »


Conspiracy theories are rampant! The world bankers are plotting this, the Rothschilds are planning that, the government is secretly conducting one thing and another.

It has always been such and they may all be true! But there there is a higher planner!

Take a moment to read what the Bible says about that,

“Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.

They sharpen their tongues … aim cruel words … shoot from ambush … encourage each other … they say, “Who will see it?”

But God will shoot them with his arrows … turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin” – Psalm 64:2-8 (NIV)

A friend years ago told God in prayer, “Lord, since you are going to be up all night anyway, I’ll let you worry about that; I’m going to get some sleep.”

>The Fear of God

“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. – 2nd Corinthians 7:1

We don’t like the word, “fear”. How can we fear God and love him, too? Think of the fear of God like the fear of law.

I am not afraid of the police, I have friends who are police and love them dearly, but I treat them all with the utmost respect realizing they have the authority and ability to make my life very difficult.

Some see the uniform and miss the person; some do that with God, too. Jesus shows the person behind God’s law and He is good, kind, and worthy of our love.

>No Fear in Troubled Times

“And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be … nation shall rise against nation … and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles – Mark 13:7-8

Jesus predicted that before his return some fearful things would happen.

Could he have been referring to just the sort of things we see now – terrorists, Middle East wars, global warming fears (real or imagined); political and geological problems increasing everywhere? I think so.

Ahead of time he told us this so his people would trust his care and not be afraid like those without hope or faith.

We choose to believe in his personal care, acting from faith not fear.
