We have witnessed several evils in the world. We are living in a world so full of evil. The evil in the world is so thick. It is a terrible darkness. We experience different kinds of suffering because of this evil. What a world dominated by evil.
1 John 5:19 (KJV) And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
The two forces dominating the world are the forces of light and darkness. Light brings peace and happiness but darkness brings evil and wickedness. The Bible says that the whole world lies in wickedness. This wickedness makes life difficult and terrible.
The original plan of God for man was not to suffer. We were created by God to enjoy the blessings of life. This would have been the case if we had been cooperating with God. From time man turned his back against God and cooperated with the devil, he brought darkness into the creation of God. This darkness is the cause of all the evil which we are experiencing in the world.
Isaiah 60:2 (KJV) For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
To overcome the force of darkness, we must cooperate with God. We must turn back to God. We must surrender our lives to serve God. We must repent from our evil ways and believe in the doctrines of God. We must give God the chance to deliver our world from the dominion of darkness.
