“And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” I John 2:17
It is so amazing that we focus so much on the things of the world and take lightly the things of God.  How much do we care about the worldly lifestyle?  We want everything the world has and sacrifice to get it but at the same time we neglect our spiritual life.
The above Scripture says the lust, “desire”, of the world is passing away.  Earthly things will lose their glitter during the passing of time. When we reach the sunset of life what will we have?  Will there be a future or will we just regret the past?
In Christ we have the hope of eternal life and He promises never to leave us nor forsake us.  Being right is always important and we need to know about being right.  Who is correct?  Who has the answers?  Is it man, the government, society, or God?  Maybe it is an alien race that came to earth a million years ago.  Whatever the answer you must decide what you believe about life.
I have made a choice and will stand by it until someone can prove me wrong.  I believe God is correct.  It seems we have arrived at a point in history when it is either choose God or Government.  Who will see you through this “evil day?”  Will it be God or man(the lesser god)?

And I told them of the hand of my God which has been good upon me, and also of the king’s word that he has spoken to me. So they said, ‘Let us rise up and build.’ Then they set their hands to this good work. But when Sanballet the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard it, they laughed at us and despised us, and said, ‘What is this thing that you are doing? Will you rebel against the king?” (Nehemiah 2:18-19)
Whenever you attempt to do anything for the Lord there will be critics. They may deliberately or mistakenly give out false information that will affect the work you are doing. Nehemiah’s enemies falsely accused him of rebelling against the king. They did not agree with what Nehemiah was doing. But, because he was in the right, his cause was defended and completed with God’s blessing. If what you are doing is right and based on the truth of God, He will bless the work of your hand. You cannot fail. “With God all things are possible.”
