Disarmed.

We live in a world of natural disasters, murder, terrorists, domestic violence, much like in the days of Noah. Thieves are rampant, people breaking into homes, taking what they want and disrupting lives, even killing innocent people.

A home security system is almost a must in today’s society. It’s simple to arm the house at night and comforting to know that you will be alarmed if someone breaks in the house.

But, in reality, what’s going on in our own lives is a matter of arming ourselves 24/7. Satan is around every corner, in the most inconceivable situations, ready to invade our lives.

Thankfully, if you’re a Christian, you can rest in the security of Jesus. His life was ransomed for every one of us. The only true freedom is knowing and following Christ, reading God’s Word and being prepared for whatever the devil throws at us.

Our eternal security is based on God’s love for those whom He has redeemed. Our eternal security is purchased by Christ, promised by the Father, and sealed by the Holy Spirit.

Are you armed and ready for battle, or is your security not as it should be?

Isaiah 41:10 - “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”
