Today Reminder (Hope) – 23 May 2018


A reminder for today
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. (James 1:12)

When you look at our current situation in South Africa hope can seem as something that looks as a distant dream. The far left is shouting for land reform in the case of taking land and giving it to the black people. Their argument is a flat and unrealistic believe that all the land was taken by force and that white people own the most land. This has been proven by research and historical fact as one of the worst lies ever propagated. Land in South Africa was taken by force by black over black and when the white settlers arrived here there was already a genocide done by the Zulu people over their neighbouring black tribes. In fact, Shaka Zulu nearly wiped out all the other black races to the extend that they had to fled for the lives. The white settlers that arrived at that time purchased land from Dingane after which he brutally murdered them. This led to the famous battle of blood river where God delivered the settlers from the hands of the Zulu’s. We still celebrate this day, today on the 16th of December. Now, I do not promote the injustices done by the apartheid government just as I do not promote the injustices allowed by the current government.  

So, the whole outcry that the left is making to take land back is a complete lie, because all they want to do is to nationalise the land which means no one will own any land. The state, that has shown us how corrupt they truly are, will own all the land. This is communism at its best. Again, hope seems a little far.

If they really want to change the lives of people in South Africa, they should start by stopping crime and uplifting our education system. Almost 80% of our schools is not working, because of violence and crime. This means that instead of uplifting their people they are in fact breaking them down. If we educate people and stop crime and bring down inflation you will see a massive change, but it is not about that. Once again it is all about the riches and greed of a corrupt government. Therefore, you can see that hope is not easily found.

I can go on, but I will stop with this. In a study only 1% of our population said that their lives will improve with land reform. So, what does God say about this. God said that if His people will stop their ways and return to Him, He will heal their land. Many South Africans are finding their way back to God and I believe He will come and He will save His people, no matter who you are or what colour you are. God says that He will bless those who endure, because we will be tested and tried and in the end, we will receive the crown of life that is promised by God.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers
