“A dying world: Where is God?”
Counselor England writes
Habakkuk 2:1-2 1I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. 2And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. (KJV)
I was troubled by what I observed; I asked difficult questions of God. I see a dying world and it breaks my heart. Why is there so much evil in the world? Why do the wicked seem to be winning? I boldly and confidently took my complaints directly to God! For the Lord Jesus Christ says I can call upon Him in my day of trouble, Amen!

When a multitude of questions trouble my spirit, I will go to God in prayer. Then I will stand still and wait for his answers to get my understanding.

It’s because of the fall of Adam sin prevailed.The Bible says people’s hearts will wax cold specially in these last days.There are no morals in this country, no compassion on our fellow man, no love of the brethren toward one another, even in some churches.But there is a great wave of Gods love and presence coming and I believe its now in our midst, just a breath away.
