Not the minority. ( Romans 8 v 31 - 39 )
I remember a missionary telling about two brothers who were the only Christians in their school,when asked about this,one of the lads said,' we are many'. What did he mean by that?well I believe he was saying that when God is with you,then God and all of heaven are for you. In 2 Kings 6 we read that Elisha and his servant were at a place called Dothan and they were under attack by the army of Syria.. It all got a bit to much for Elisha's servant, and he cried out in fear 'what shall we do?'.Elisha replied,''Don't be afraid'... Those who are with us, are more than those who are with them''.The servant may have wondered why he said that,for the reality staring him in the face did not appear good. Elisha stopped trying to persuade him that what he said was true,so he prayed,and asked God ,to open the eyes of his servant.The Lord answered,his eyes were open,and what did he see?, he saw the hills all around them were filled with horses and chariots.In Romans 8 v 31, we read,'If God is for us, who can be against us,and in v 37,we read,'we are more than conquerors through him who loved us'. Like that servant of old you may be very afraid,difficulties are piling up,the enemies at the gate,there is no way out,you are not on your own,you are not the minority,for God and all heavens resources are your's.
