Late in the evening, and time to retire (go to bed, that is), I am thinking of all that has transpired today. Am I worried? I shouldn’t be. I serve the King of the Universe who is still on the throne. His scepter shall not be given to another.
Thy kingdom [is] an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion [endureth] throughout all generations. – Psalm 145:13 KJV
With so much unrest in the world, it is a wonder anyone has any sanity left, especially those who continually bang their heads against the wall trying to figure it all out. What kingdom will be the next to fall? What riot today will lead to anarchy tomorrow? Who knows, but nothing suprises God. Jesus is the Sovereign King of Kings.
“I was watching in the night visions, And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him. Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, That all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, Which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one Which shall not be destroyed. – Daniel 7:13-14 NKJV
Am I nervous? Maybe a little. I would prefer peace and tranquility. But we are not promised those things, are we. Things could get really bad all over the world, even in America. But one thing remains true: “this world is not my home – I’m only passing through…”
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. – Hebrews 12:28 NKJV

Amen. I sometimes get a little nervous about the things going on in the world, but I do not worry for the Lord is my provider and my protector. He will see me through whatever comes.
