"WHAT SHALL WE DO?"

In light of prophetic revelations and what we see happening in the world, if you, in response to those things, have been asking, like Elisha's servant once did, "What shall we do?", the answer is found in the passage of scripture below, and which is this- see things as God sees them! No force, no matter how numerous and powerful, is a match for the force that God has with us, His people!
To Elisha's servant, in the situation below, it would have seemed as though, at that moment in time, that it was just him and Elisha against the whole world- just the two of them! But that was far from the reality. It did not matter that they were surrounded, and it didn't matter that there was a massive force with all kinds of weapons against them- all that mattered was that they were under the shadow of His wings! So is it with all of His people!
It does not matter how small and helpless we are, and it matters not if there is nothing that we can do to practically help ourselves. Nothing that is coming is greater than our God- no matter how powerful! no matter how numerous! and no matter what weapons may come! God is the shield of His people- nothing has changed!
2 Kings 6v13-17:
13“Go, find out where he is,” the king ordered, “so I can send men and capture him.” The report came back: “He is in Dothan.” 14Then he sent horses and chariots and a strong force there. They went by night and surrounded the city.
15When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. “Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked.
16“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
17And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
