Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
-Philippians 4:6-7

This is the state the world is in. People would rather serve Satan than God.
.
.
⚪️“And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?”
-Mark 8:36
⚪️Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
-1 John 2:15-17
⚪️They send out their little boys like a flock, and their children dance. They sing to the tambourine and the lyre and rejoice to the sound of the pipe. They spend their days in prosperity, and in peace they go down to Sheol. They say to God, ‘Depart from us! We do not desire the knowledge of your ways. What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? And what profit do we get if we pray to him?’
-Job 21:11-15

[Having Faith in The Lord]
In Genesis 15:4, God had made a promise to Abram, telling him that he will have a son of his own. And Abram believed the Lord (Genesis 15:6).
However in Genesis 16:2, Sarai told Abram to sleep with her slave Hagar, hoping to build a family through her. And Abram agreed. But Abram knew better because God had made a promise to him.
This was an act of faithlessness on both Sarai and Abram. The lesson we can learn from this is that when God makes a promise to you, you mustn’t lose faith or rely on your own wisdom lest you become impatient and try to fix things yourself, which will only lead to self-destruction.
You must learn to be patient and trust God.
.
.
⚪️Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
-Proverbs 3:5-6
⚪️Those who trust their own insight are foolish, but anyone who walks in wisdom is safe.
-Proverbs 28:26
⚪️But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind. Such people should not expect to receive anything from the Lord.
-James 1:6-7
.
.
And remember, God is faithful:
⚪️if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.
-2 Timothy 2:13
⚪️And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise.
-Hebrews 11:11
⚪️God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
-Numbers 23:19
Do not allow delay to cause you to lose faith.

“For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. They will reject the truth and chase after myths.”

THE WORD FOR 13/4
When it comes to the battles we face, anyone can walk away. It takes no courage to walk away. It’s a lot less painful to turn our backs and leave. We may not have the courage to face up to the enemy. But our God provides a well of strength that we can draw from anytime we need. He gives courage to all who say “I cannot do this alone.”
Jesus assures us that the war won’t be easy but promises us that if we trust in Him He will fight the battle for us and let us share in the victory. Don’t give up. Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. Exodus 14:13

[God is Majestic]
In fields of gold, where sunbeams dance and play,
God's majesty shines bright, in a wondrous way.
His beauty's seen, in every single grace,
A reflection of His loving embrace.
The heavens declare, with voices loud and clear,
God's glory, and His power, so pure and dear.
The stars and moon, they dance and sing,
A celestial choir, with God as their king.
In the depths of the sea, where darkness reigns,
God's light shines bright, and calms the soul's pain.
The waves and tides, they ebb and flow,
A divine symphony, that we all know.
In the heart of every man, woman, and child,
God's love resides, and His beauty's wild.
For He is the one, who gives and forgives,
And in His love, our souls forever lives.

False prophets and false apostles need to step off the stage, shut their mouths and repent. They’re doing more harm than good.
.
.
They must be silenced, because they are turning whole families away from the truth by their false teaching. And they do it only for money.
-Titus 1:11
These people always cause trouble. Their minds are corrupt, and they have turned their backs on the truth. To them, a show of godliness is just a way to become wealthy.
1 Timothy 6:5
Having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
-2 Timothy 3:5
“Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.
-Matthew 7:15
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
-John 10:10

[Astrology Is A Sin ]
Astrology tells us we don’t need God, that all our answers are in the stars. But God warned the Israelites about sorcery and divination and commanded them not to imitate any of the detestable ways of the Canaanites. In Deuteronomy, God plainly says that anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord.
In 1 Samuel 15:23, God compares divination to rebellion and arrogance, calling it the “evil of idolatry.”
Anything we place before God is an idol. It can be something totally innocuous, but if it replaces God, it becomes sinful for us (Exodus 20:3).
The Bible explains this well in Isaiah 47:13:
“All the counsel you have received has only worn you out! Let your astrologers come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month, let them save you from what is coming upon you.”
Since we’ve already learned that astrology wisdom is not complete, do we really want to hold its hand for the next month, or the right hand of He who knows everything, including the number of hairs on our head?
We know Satan roams around the earth, searching for who he can devour. Many people get snared in his trap by seemingly good things. But anything that moves you away from light is moving you toward darkness. Satan knows that our flesh will do whatever will make us feel better, and he knows how to lure us in a particular direction.
So, while astrology can enlighten us as we discover so many coincidences and similarities, remember that Satan is a liar. He knows a lot of things about us, but he does not know God or what God has planned for us. He tells us half-truths. Like Eve tasting the fruit because it helped attain wisdom and looked good, we can do the same with astrology, not realizing until it’s too late the consequences of that decision.
If we truly trust in God alone, we know He works all things for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). All things have meaning, even the things that look unfair in this world. Eve thought she was missing out by not getting to eat all the fruit, but the Lord knew better.
So, if we trust God, why do we need to check another source to find answers? The Bible warns us not to bow down and serve anything aside from Him.
“And beware lest you raise your eyes to heaven, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, things that the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.” Deuteronomy 4:19
God tells us in James 1:5 that if we lack wisdom we should ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach.
If you ask me if, as a Christian, if we should follow astrology, my answer would be no. God’s Word says in Psalm 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye on you. With God’s Word as a lamp to my feet and a light to my path (Psalm 119:105), the only sign I want to claim is a child of God.
