The terrorist attacks on the United States has changed our world. Many will wonder how God could allow such a thing but the Bible makes it clear is that God is in control and not even this tragedy happened without God allowing it to take place.

Those who say that God could not allow such an act of evil have never read the book of Job. The attacks on our nation were certainly inspired by Satan but to say this happened outside God’s permissive will is to ignore the Lord’s Almighty nature. God is sovereign and there is nothing that happens, good or bad without His permission.

We don’t always understand what God’s purpose is because we do not have His omniscient perspective...

Isaiah 55:8-9 - "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.

God allows bad things to happen to serve a higher purpose. but we can trust that whatever He allows to happen will be used in the best interest of His people...

Romans 8:28 - And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

While this is a scary era for the world, Christians can take comfort in knowing that God is still in control. And as we see events taking place that show the Lord’s return as being near, this should cause us to draw near to Him and get on with doing what He has called us to do.

Maybe you don’t feel any comfort from knowing that God is in control. If this is the case, you should see this as God calling you into a relationship with Him so that He can bless you with His comfort. I would encourage you to let Jesus into your life immediately before it is too late...

2 Corinthians 6:2 - Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

Jesus has already done everything necessary for you to have eternal life by paying the price for your sin. All that needs to be done is receive Him into your life.

Acts 2:21 - whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Right now, where ever you are at, you can pray to God acknowledging your sinful condition before Him and ask Him to save you and bring Jesus into your life. If you need to, you can also ask Him to give you the faith to believe that Jesus paid the penalty for your sin. God always answers those who are sincere in this prayer.
