In a world where troubles, disappointments, dangers, wars, and uncertainties is at an all-time high, many people may wonder, what's the use in believing on their fellow man or the hopes of dreaming of a better life on this earth or even if it's worth the effort.
So many are ready to throw in the towel, maybe excepting the false fact that there is no good in the society of mankind, especially when our daily news broadcast in television, radio, and in newspapers reinforces the fears of the public, because very seldom do we hear good news. Taxes on the rise, war skirmishes, and mass killings, by some hate group or a mentally deranged person (the list goes on). These stresses only add to people's personal problems. This hopeless mental state can and oftentimes lead some people to some destructive ends, even contemplating suicide and some doing it.
Thanks be to God that all hope is not lost, that there is a bright light at the end of the dark tunnel, and that after the storms of life, the sun, and the blue skies return. So there is a lot of good news for those of us who hold on trusting and believing in GOD and his precious promises. If we believe that the Old Testament was written for our learning, we see that GOD delivered Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Moses, just to name a few. How they had many trials and tribulations, and they all overcame their troubles by their faith in the one true GOD and his precious promises.
So here in this work, The God Who Encourages, I would like to remind all who trust in GOD that his powers of deliverance has not changed (see James 1:17) as the scripture say he is the same Lord today, yesterday, and forever (see Hebrews 13:8).
