God's word concerning the frightening future (Rev. 22:13): "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." All you need to know about the future is that I am already there, and I am good. I am the End, the destination to which the whole Creation is going. I am already seated at the end of time, with the victory in my hand, looking back at you. I control the outcome, tomorrow as always. Do not worry about the future or attempt to manipulate it by worldly means. Do what I've told you to do and trust me with the future.
Concerning the confused politics of the world, remember (Dan 4:17) that "the Most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men." But at the same time remember (Prov 21:1) that "the king's heart is in the hand of the Lord." This is as true tomorrow as it was in Bible times. He has never changed. He has the future in His hand.
