There continues a pattern of economic turmoil throughout the earth. A multi-decade abuse of credit is heading toward the "day of reconciliation". The books must be reconciled. Man’s blind eye to the mess that Wall Street facilitated will have its consequences. The blindness of mankind is nothing new. The Pharisees in New Testament were blinded to the arrival of the Messiah. Throughout history kings have used and abused power only to be replaced. Mankind is reaching a crescendo in human history. Knowledge is truly circling the earth via the Internet. What happens in one country is immediately reported around the world. The expansion of knowledge is not the solution to peace on earth.
Cycles are fundamental to living. The earth has cycles, people have cycles, and economies have cycles. Expansion and compression are simply a fact of life. The Bible speaks of cycles in detail. The lunar cycle determines the feast dates. Our Heavenly Father established a 3 feast cycle: Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles. Economic Theory has 4 cycles: expansion, contraction, compression, recovery. These cycles are similar to the four seasons.
Everyone agrees that we are now in a "contraction" or recession and the only question will be how severe and how long. Everyone is seeking an oracle to tell them what to do, where to go, and how to retain the wealth they have accumulated- real or perceived. People crowd around Warren Buffett hoping to glean a piece of investment advise to make them rich. Prosperity by association is nothing new. Close associates to the Google founders are now millionaires. This is also true for close associates in Microsoft’s early days. Everyone cannot be financial millionaires but everyone can be wealthy.
There are plenty of resources to go around. Potable water is in short supply and is thought to be next "big thing" in commodity investing in spite of the fact that 80% is covered with water. Now there’s an irony! We are in short supply of a resource that covers most of the earth! The only issue is the salt. There are desalination plants that provide fresh drinking water from salt water but they are expensive to operate due to the amount of energy they use to complete the process.
There is an abundant supply of free energy to fuel the energy need of the entire globe. The only issue is extraction from its current state.
Mankind is moving toward the "compression" cycle in Economics, otherwise known as "Depression". Compression is necessary to cleanse the system of its illusions. An illusion of wealth from home equity caused American consumers to go on a buying binge over the last several years. An illusion of wealth in the stock portfolio added to this excess consumption. Corporate America accommodated this illusion. This compression may be severe. Will the system be fully cleansed of the excesses? Will this be the time where mankind turns (repents) to Our Heavenly Father?
Revelation of free energy and potable water would change the world. Our Heavenly Father has withheld those two revelations from man. Why? Mankind has sought wealth and power rather than the Face of God! Mankind’s arrogance and defiance have placed us in this critical juncture. In the Parable of the rich landowner, Jesus revealed the perverted focus of priorities that mankind suffers from. His perceived value of wealth was great one day but became worthless to him within 24 hours. Had he focused on the "wealth" or treasures in the Kingdom of God, he would not have been destitute at death. Jesus provides us the key to wealth and prosperity. The promise includes sustenance while living on earth:
Luke 12:16-34
Then He spoke a parable to them, saying: "The ground of a certain rich man yielded plentifully.
"And he thought within himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no room to store my crops?’
"So he said, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns and build greater, and there I will store all my crops and my goods.
‘And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years; take your ease; eat, drink, and be merry."’
"But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul will be required of you; then whose will those things be which you have provided?’
"So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God."
Then He said to His disciples, "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on.
"Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing.
"Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds?
"And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
"If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest?
"Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
"If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
"And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind.
"For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things.
"But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.
"Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
"Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys.
"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
There is a wealth that is locked up in the Kingdom of God waiting to be release to mankind. There is a corporate need to repent or turn away from the current direction of force based economics. This form of economics thrives on scarcity and a quest for power. Attraction based economics thrives on Love. Men were attracted or drawn to Jesus, similar to a magnetic pull. The earth is held in orbit by magnetism, not force. Love serves and attracts. Lust takes by force. The Key of David is Love for David was a man after GOD’S own heart. For mankind to be transformed, Love must and will take center stage. The doors of revelation and mysteries will open with this key.
During the Christmas season, people proclaim "Peace on Earth". The only way you can have peace on earth is for Love to arrive first. There will be no lasting peace until Love is the primary motivator of men, not lust.
