As I observe world events unfold before our very eyes I am amazed of the lawlessness that prevails at the highest levels. The fraud, extortion, lies, and manipulation are at levels I would not have dreamed possible thirty years ago. Nations are now reaping the reward of the seeds sown in the past when THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY was no longer truly worshipped and central to a nation’s moral fiber. Spiritual blindness has replaced the light of Christ in many nations and the world is on the verge of a major change. Fortunately, there are those of us who continue to press toward the high calling in spite of the pressures all around us. As long as there is a flame being sheltered in the remnant, the passion for the unsaved and blind will remain. We must not let the current disarray cause us to be discouraged but instead we must continue our trek up the mountain of Our Heavenly Father one step at a time.
In Philippians chapter 2 Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT:
13 for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
14 Do all things without complaining and disputing,
15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,
I suspect previous generations might have considered their particular time in history as reaching some sort of crescendo. The current generation has the means by which the crookedness and perverseness can be exposed in an immediate manner via the Internet. Technology has allowed us to record and expose the corruptness of the world like never before. As our exposure to this lawlessness increases, let us rise above the chaos and know that FATHER will reward the just and the unjust according to their works. It will be according to HIS Wisdom, judgment, and mercy that all men will receive their appropriate reward. We must endeavor to proceed forth without complaining or disputing as we continue on the narrow path of Christ. Accept the reality that FATHER has placed us here at this particular time in history and our individual callings are part of HIS ultimate plan of deliverance.
When we are treated in an unjust and unfair manner, it sets the stage for FATHER to judge and righteously compensate us for our loss and suffering. Paul wrote by THE SPIRIT in 1 Timothy chapter 4:
1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons,
2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron
The times we are now in would certainly fit the description Paul conveyed to Timothy. Deception continues to grow among the nations of the earth as men exploit the masses out of greed and the quest for power. The unsuspecting are manipulated through the media to believe the persistent lies being spewed out of froward mouths. The Truth is being perverted using every means possible yet the remnant are not moved by the attempts. FATHER has sufficiently warned us and prepared us for what lies ahead. HE continues to encourage us by HIS SPIRIT and direct our paths to navigate through the ugliness at hand. HIS Love is the foundation we stand on and it cannot be shaken by the world’s vain attempts to sway and misdirect us.
The United States is as polarized as never before and many have warned of chaos ahead. In Matthew chapter 12, Jesus spoke this Truth:
25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.”
This Truth is applicable to every nation on earth and it would appear that there is no nation existing in a unified state today. Greed by the worldly bankers have made sure of that. The economic stress found throughout the world has been met with feeble attempts of solutions by those who follow worldly wisdom. Their solutions will surely fail as they have in the past for history is simply repeating itself. Love is the only answer to the issues at hand. Answers motivated by Love will confound the “wise” and will solve the massive problems of mankind. Love can and will tap into the Wisdom of FATHER and provide mankind with the solutions that are desperately needed. As our lights shine brighter in the gross darkness at hand, mankind will finally be drawn to the light. Only then will a new day arrive.
