The Lord is dealing these days extensively on LIFE and DEATH, for the entire spiritual battle along with our free will boils down to either choosing to walk with God (LIFE) or choosing the way of the world (DEATH). Regarding all the death, chaos, anarchy, violence and abuse in the world, there is a simple explanation why the world is witnessing so much tragedy and sadness. It is because so many people in the world have chosen not to believe and FOLLOW the one true God and His ways. There is a real difference between knowing of Him and knowing Him. In the Old Testament life and death translated into blessings and curses for the Israel nation. Under the Law of Moses, the Lord presented to His people a very simple choice – follow God and live, or disobey God and die. Today, even though under the Covenant of Grace, nothing has changed. We are either going to follow God and live in abundance – spirit, soul and body – or we are going to choose to allow ourselves to become infested by the world and therefore suffer the touch of death – spirit, soul and body.
