You know we all go through a lot of stuff in life. Troubles and trials, we all have them during our lifetime. Some more than others but we all face them. Just when you get through one, many times it seems another is on the way. There may even be times when troubles seem to come at us in waves!

In my lifetime I have seen them. Yes I have seen plenty of them. Many I had nothing to do with I was just born into trouble it seemed. Others I caused all by myself with help from no one. Stupid decisions, I have made plenty of them. Much of the troubles I have faced I brought them on myself. Yes I could blame this or that. In the end thought it always falls back on me. Yes, I have been pretty stupid at times. In fact I haven't overcome it yet!

But through it all God has always been faithful. Many times I didn't realize it at the time but he was right there with me seeing me through. In fact I haven't been in a single scrape yet that he didn't bring me through. Everything I found myself in and everything I have jumped in he pulled me out. Yes I have come through some skirmishes battered and bruised but I came through them.

The biggest battle I will ever face will be death. Yes it's coming! I just don't when. Could be today or next week or twenty years but it is coming. But, Hallelujah I am going to come through that one as well. Yes I don’t have anything to be afraid of at all. When I get to that great event I will finally leave all these other troubles behind once and for all. Hallelujah! But just as with all these troubles the Lord is going to see me safely through death to the other side. How do I know! Because he has already gone through it for me. The last enemy death has already been conquered! Jesus said it all when he said "Be of good cheer I have overcome the world." Because of that I can say "Hallelujah bring it on I am ready." The question is are you?

I'm ready because my faith in him has made me ready! Do you share that same faith? Have you repented of your sins? Have you confessed Christ as you Savior and Lord? Do you know that you know that you know? Have you committed your life to him? If so then you can say Hallelujah!!! Now I have no fear!

See ya Sunday,

The Preacher
