Praise Jesus For A Bad Economy!

Even though we see countless times in God's word to rejoice in times that are good, we also see reason to praise Jesus in times that are bad. We see Paul writing from prison to the Philippians, and any logical person would say that if your writing from prison your theme should be sorrow. However, as Paul was writing from Prison, his theme was Joy. We see also in God's word that Job was a major highlight of trusting in the Lord no matter the present conditions. But what about our present circumstances? Here are a few reasons to praise Jesus for this present time!

1) First and foremost - the Gospel should be heard clearer, now more than ever. People are starving for answers in the midst of bad circumstances.
2) True Identity is not found in our bank account but in our view of who Jesus is! Is Jesus the Christ, or our wishing well and crutch? Who is your Messiah?
3) The Prosperity Gospel is out of commission!!!! AMEN! Burn your "Best Life Now" books and read Lamentations! Find a church that preaches the deep waters of God's Word, no matter if the shallow one's claim that they are fastest growing in America! The Churches that preach the true Gospel are the fastest growing churches in heaven, not in the eyes of the sinful religious.

"If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory" (Colossians 3:1-4).
