--No Fear in the Days of Evil~~ "Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?" --The "days of evil" seem specifically to refer to old age. Solomon reminds young people to "remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them."Those who have not "remembered their Creator" may one day come to realize that their iniquities actually involved the venom of that old serpent, the devil. Their sins might even destroy them both now and eternally. But because of Christ's great victory over Satan--when He both died for our sins and then defeated death by His resurrection--we need no longer fear death, even when the evil days are near. Though it is far better to accept His gift of salvation from sin and death while we are young, it is never too late, as long as we live. So, "wherefore should I fear in the days of evil?" "We have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and..perfect love casteth out fear."--Scriptures: Psalm 49:5; Ecclesiastes 12:1; 1 John 4:16,18 --Days of Praise~~ -< http://youtu.be/SHKi2fbbnEQ> -----------
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
