Without a doubt, difficult times like today create panic and a lot of anguish. The problems when we do not have the courage that comes from God, make us people very full of fear.
The economic crisis continues to devastate society. Many people have lost their jobs and companies went bankrupt due to the pandemic.
The current situation that humanity is experiencing is very terrifying and it seems that the problem of "Covid-19" will continue for much longer.
The global panorama is not easy, however, the Christian people have many advantages in relation to the difficult times they have had to live. The Christian lives by faith and not by sight. The faith of the Christian is based on the trust that he puts in God according to the things that God promises if we believe him.
Facing the adversities of the present time leads us to believe in God and trust that "God has not given us a spirit of cowardice, but of power, love, and self-control" 2 Timothy 1: 7.
If we believe that within us there is a spirit of power that God has given us, then we have an advantage over problems and we have the ability to face and overcome them. We have to believe in God, we cannot doubt that God has endowed us with a spirit of power, which says the very word of God, which is the Holy Spirit.
But you will receive power, when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea, in Samaria and to the ends of the earth. Acts 1: 8 King James Version (KJV)
The Lord confirms to us through his word, that within each Christian is the Holy Spirit, who represents the power of God.
If we have the power of God within us, we must trust and maintain our courage to face all those challenges that come into our lives.
With the Holy Spirit we can face any giant that enters our lives as David did when he defeated Goliath. With the Holy Spirit we can open any Red Sea and Jordan as in the days of Moses and Joshua.
Maintain your courage in difficult times, because the one in us is more powerful than the one in the world.
Little children, you are from God and you have overcome them; because greater is the one that is in you, than the one that is in the world. 1 John 4: 4
