           GOD IS STILL KING OF THE                                 FLOODS
PSALM 93:3...THE FLOODS HAVE LIFTED UP, O LORD, THE FLOODS HAVE LIFTED UP THEIR VOICE, THE FLOODS LIFT UP THEIR WAVES.
   The floods represent the rising waters of afflictions, the overwhelming crises that are coming on the earth affecting multitudes. This is the flood of unemployment, housing nightmares, ever-growing financial difficulties. We now face a great flood of fear and confusion about what to do to survive the storm.  
   It tears my heart to have a single mother stop me on the street weeping, “Pastor,  what am I going to do? I lost my job, and I may lose my apartment, I have nothing to live on.  Where will I go?”  Top-level executives are being laid off with no warning. Workers tell me that see bosses crying at their desks, asking, “What will I do? I’m broke.  What about my mortgage? I have no benefits.
   Some terrible things are happening , even to some of the godliest believers. I ask God, “Lord, what do I tell them? They are in the flood. “ I know these saintly people pray and read God’s Word. Indeed, they have learned to trust the Lord. But now their faith is being tested to the limit.
   There are some who are soon to lose everything. I can’t just give these people a pep talk and a few Scriptures and ask them to cheer up.  I am not suffering the way they are. I still get paid.
   I have ask the Lord to please hear my heart as I say this; the time is not far away before we all will be deeply affected by the economic flood coming to the whole world. Great trials are ahead for all of us who deeply love the Lord.
   Here is what I am led to do by the Holy Ghost. I ask the following of my family also.
1. No more buying of luxuries. Cut all spending except absolute necessities.
2. Sell every unneeded item, You have.
3. Downsize as much as possible. Be willing to let it all come to this. HAVING      FOOD AND RAIMENT, LET US BE THEREWITH CONTENT.  I     TIMOTHY 6:8.
4. Build up your faith by reminding the Lord daily of his promise.
   PSALM 29:10..THE LORD SIT’s UPON THE FLOOD; YEA, THE LORD   is   KING OF R IVER.
   PSALM 31:1...IN THEE, O LORD, DO I PUT MY TRUST. LET ME NEVER     BE ASHAMED; DELIVER ME IN THY RIGHTEOUSNESS.

If we did not know that God is in charge then we would certainly loose our minds trying to figure out what to do but God knows what to do..so let's put our trust in Him but yet do all that we can through Him..thank you Shepherd for this message...
