Shalom! Greetings of Peace to CBN Partners
This September, we welcome the Partners who have joined hands with us to reap the yellowed fields. God's call is urgent and time is so short, we together while it is still day to cultivate the interests of the Lord in this generation.
Did you know that today the world distorts the truth? In Isaiah 5:20, God says, 'Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.” Isn't this what we see in the world today? We are in an era where there are so many voices, discordant tones, posts, opinions and philosophies of life that contradict the truth.
Therefore, the Lord said to Joshua, as Joshua 1:8 says, 'Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.' If we do not cultivate a close relationship with the God, our vision becomes blurred, and our hearing becomes dull. And when we can no longer distinguish between right and wrong, one thing is certain: the generation of children will be adrift in this murky current and led far astray from any truth.
So we need to help this generation, how do we do it? We can live out the truth, strive for holiness, and be witnesses for Christ. No matter the times we face and the circumstances that arise, we can still stand firm and rooted in the word of God.
I believe that every CBN Partner will live within the truth of God's word. And my prayer is that your love will abound in knowledge and all kinds of good understanding.
