The Bible describes the last days as troubled ones. Times full of persecution, famines, diseases, conflicts, a one world government, a one world religion, and a ruler that demands worship of himself at the cost of one’s life if they do not. This leads many Christians to ask, how do I prepare for this. It is tempting to follow the lines of a doomsday prepper: building an underground shelter, storing food, medicine, and guns, and digging in until the end. However, this is not to what Jesus calls us. In Matthew 24 Jesus exhorts to prepare for the coming Kingdom by living our lives in watchful, humble, expectant and faithful service to Him.

When looking at the apparent chaos in the world it is too east to lose hope. We find ourselves wondering if anyone is really in control and where God may be. The biblical reality is that God is on the throne and still sovereign. He is working through the signs and the times which will culminate in a final seven years of our current age.

Sometimes the world seems like it is stuck in its own proverbial game of thrones. One group vying for power over another. Sometimes we feel anxiety and worry as we wonder how it is all going to play out. Spoiler Alert! God has already revealed how the game of thrones will play out. Jesus wins. In the end he will return and establish the Kingdom of God in justice and righteousness; a kingdom that will never end.
