Jehovah Will Protect You - How?

 JEHOVAH WILL CONTINUE TO PROTECT US

The world under Satan's control has many reasons to hate us.  We remain strictly neutral politically and do not take up arms.  We proclaim God's name, promote his Kingdom as the only hope for peace, and uphold his righteous standards.  We expose the world's ruler as a monstrous liar and murderer.  (John 8:44)  And we announce the imminent destruction of Satan's world.  Yet, we will never be silenced by Satan and his followers. On the contrary, we will keep praising Jehovah, using every means at our disposal to do so!  As powerful as Satan is, he has not been able to prevent the Kingdom message from reaching people around the globe.  Only Jehovah's protection can account for that. - Read ISAIAH 54:15, 17. 

What lies ahead? During the great tribulation, Jehovah will save us in two amazing ways.  First, he will save his loyal servants during the time when he causes the kings of the eath to destroy Babylon the Great, the empire of false religion.  (Revelation 17:16-18; 18:2, 4)  Then, he will save his people when he annihilates the remaining elements of Satan's world at Armageddon. - REVELATION 7:9, 10; 16:14, 16. 

When we remain close to Jehovah, Satan can do us no lasting harm. In fact, he is the one who will suffer permanent harm.  (Romans 16:20)  So  put on the suit of armor-and leave it on!  Do not try to fight the battle on your own.  Support your brothers and sisters. And follow Jehovah's direction. If you do, you can be confident that your loving heavenly Father will strengthen uyou and protect you. - ISAIAH 41:10.
