My story goes back to one of the mission trips we had taken to Juarez Mexico. On this trip we encountered the federales and many of the law enforcement that had been ordered by the government to come into the city. They were waring against the drug lords. They were trying to over throw the Mexican government;  Many killed before we arrived.  As we drove up and down his streets we found the streets deserted for many were in hiding the whole city was afraid of what was happening.

As I looked at the situation I could see the difference for I had travel into Juarez for the last 13 years. This town was always busy because it sits near the United States bordered to the city of Texas tourists come and go into the boarders but this time it was different the streets were empty.

That night I my spirit was sadden because of what I had seen. We were on this mission trip to encourage our brother in Christ. As we entered the church we could feel the spirit of fear and discouragement this saddens me more.

When we arrived at the hotel after the meeting I talk to God because of the sadness I felt. As I was praying I heard the Lord tell me that it was not the drug lord we were to fear, but the Taliban.  I kept on hearing this word the Taliban. That they were hiding behind the drug lords and were trying to over throw their government and were in the process of over trying to over throw ours. That they were using the drug lords as a cover up.

 He also said, “Tell my people to pray for the time is short that my return is near”. “Tell my remnant that I am there for their protection, but those that are not under my covering will suffer much”.

Psa 61:2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Psa 61:3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

Psa 61:4I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

Psa 61:5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

As we look around us we see that the man does not have the answer. We know that GOD IS THAT ANSWER and He is there for us.
