You don’t have to be a financial genius to see that right now the world’s economy is under assault. With people talking about recession, depression and inflation everywhere you turn, it’s easy to get the picture—and it’s not very pretty. In fact, it’s downright dark.
But, thank God, if you’re a believer that picture doesn’t include you. The Bible assures you of it. It says to those who have been born again:
You aren’t in the dark…dear brothers and sisters…. For you are all children of the light and of the day; we don’t belong to darkness and night. So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. Night is the time when people sleep…. But let us who live in the light be clearheaded, protected by the [body] armor of faith and love… (1 Thessalonians 5:4-8, New Living Translation).
Isn’t it wonderful to know that even in the midst of an embattled economy, we can live in peace? We can strap on our faith/love body armor and prosper—no matter what’s happening around us. We can be like the soldiers we see on television who wear their protective gear and stay safe right in the middle of a combat zone.
