Pastor Rajiv: The Church That Should Be

 

The Bunker of God

As we hear / see the news about the Iran Isarael conflict and other conflicts around the world, there are so many stories of missile attacks and bombings. We hear and see people running to bunkers to keep safe. Cars get into tunnels to escape the bombs. Everyone runs for the cover of safety - a good man, rich man, poor man, rebel, criminal, murderer, they all try and get to safety in  the bunkers. 

There is also a war which is going on around us, against us waged by satanic forces, luring us, tempting us, scaring us, threatening us with even death. But human bunkers cannot protect us from those attacks.

Yet, There is another bunker which is available for all those who are afflicted, to run to. People who are suffering not only in physical war but from pain, sickness, pestilence, emotional trauma, loneliness and any kind of danger - even the war or attacks of Satan and his cohort of spirits. That is the bunker of God. The secret place where God keeps everyone who comes there , keeps them and provides for them.

God makes a promise through Isiaah in Chapter 44 verse 3 and 4

For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, and floods upon the dry ground: I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring:

And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses.

The way to the bunker is free, no tolls or tax and certainly no barricades saying it is full. There is always space.

How does one get there? The way is through Jesus. Believe in Him. Ask Him and let Him guide you. Let Him show the way.

What It does need is for us to trust Him completely. Make no others' God's and idols; not money not man nor nature, nor fortunetellers or stones or diamonds. He alone is God, the Almighty and who knows us from when we were formed in the womb. Who designed us. Who created us. We need to, humbly, depend on Him alone. He will protect us. There is no situation so bad that He cannot solve, so ask Him. 

As the world around us erupts in violence and tragedy, or maybe we ourselves are going though a period of need, or are suffering from the wiles and attacks of Satan, let us go the  Bunker of God and find refuge, healing and peace.
