“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His. And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding.” (Daniel 2:20-21)
“O Lord God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations, and in Your hand is there not power and might, so that no one is able to withstand You?” (2Chronicles 20:6)
“Thus I will punish the world for its evil And the wicked for their iniquity; I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud And abase the haughtiness of the ruthless.” (Isaiah 13:11) (KJV)
“Rise up, O Judge of the earth; Render punishment to the proud. Lord, how long will the wicked, How long will the wicked triumph?” (Psalm 94:2-3)
This is a hard time for many in the Church. A great segment of believers, either in person or virtually, repented and marched with Jonathan Cahn and Franklin Graham on the Washington Mall back in September. They looked for a better / different result. They watched as an insurmountable election night lead for President Trump disappeared amidst the fog of statistical impossibilities. They heard of massive vote switching, watched videos of votes magically appearing – of hundreds of thousands of votes being counted with not a one for Trump, heard tell of the thousands of affidavits and watched in wonderment as no court would even look at the evidence. The courts and institutions had failed the American people. They looked on the corruption of their elected officials, the wickedness of the censoring media and Big Tech giants. They saw how the President exhausted every legal avenue – to receive not even a hearing. Then came January 20, a date that may well be remembered as the day the American Republic died.
In the weeks that followed January 6, when the election was certified on the heels of engineered violence, Trump took his case to the generals. There are reports that he made an in depth presentation of the evidence to the military leaders. Would they support him in using the Insurrection Act of 1807? The Joint Chiefs were against him from the start. The second level brass, the base and theater commanders like those in the underground base in Cheyenne Mountain listened. They are constitutionalists and patriots. They saw the volumes of evidence including “verifiable electronic signatures from China.” In the end, they believed the Insurrection Act to be a legally iffy venture that would cause violent division, and so they declined to support Trump in its invocation. Now, the massive occupation of DC may be part of a deal that was struck….and there were rumors of Military Tribunals and cases before SCOTUS to take up the matter of election fraud. But I’m not holding my breath on that.
ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES…EVEN IF FRAUDULENT
So, just what happened on January 20th? With the inauguration of Biden the whole game has changed. We now have in place an electoral infrastructure that has very likely produced an illegitimate president. We are entering an era very much akin to the first century BC slide that Rome took as they transitioned from a republic to an autocratic empire. The Biden / Harris team was totally selected. The President’s ties to China, his corrupt links to Ukraine, and his various other compromising positions have inevitably positioned him as a danger to this nation. That combination of a poisoned electoral system – replete with vote switching technology & algorithms – buttressed by foreign ties means that henceforth, there will never be another free and fair American election again. They will always be subject to theft and manipulation. The ‘Fix’ will ALWAYS be in! It will take an act of God to reverse such damage and restore the American Republic.
So What May God Have In Mind?
Here’s where it gets quite dicey. But recall the Babylonian Captivity, that God visited upon Israel when they would not desist from their rebellion. In a series of actions, King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon, served as God’s instrument of punishment against Israel. In the last invasion, Nebby laid siege to Jerusalem, destroyed the Temple and marched many thousands of Jews to Babylon. In Jeremiah 25:8, the prophet pronounced that judgement would come a rebellious Israel. “Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts: Because you have not obeyed my words.” They would be destroyed and taken to Babylon. And then in verse 11 he wrote: “this whole land shall become a ruin and a waste, and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.” It was at the beginning of this 70 year period that Daniel and his buddies, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were taken away. But they were favored and protected through this time of exile. So while the rebellious nation was punished the believing were given favor to persevere through the trial.
Now perhaps, this is what is happening in America today. Many millions did pray and repent. Many continued in prayer throughout the election season. But the sins of this nation are many. We are in the process and have been so for a long time now – of throwing God out of the public square. The Left routinely talks about persecuting and marginalizing Christians. Biblical beliefs are mocked and shamed. Scriptural ‘takes’ on gender and sexual issues are deemed intolerant and are to be punished. The murder of the unborn is sanctioned and even celebrated. Perhaps this is God’s punishment on a nation that refuses to recognize its sin. That refuses to repent.
Now God made that promise of deliverance to Israel – after it had served its sentence of 70 years. It was Daniel that after the 70 years had nearly passed, that remembered the words of the Prophet Jeremiah and approached God in prayer, repenting for his nation and reminding God of His promise. And God did honor that Word and delivered the Jews from their captivity right on time. And through it all He had preserved the people – in Babylon – so that there would be a remnant to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple.
THE PROGAM REVEALING ITSELF
In this first week we are beginning to see the outlines of just what a Biden administration will bring to America. His initial executive orders brought some big changes to the nation’s landscape. They include:
- Required masking for Federal employees & contractors and social distancing & masking while on Federal property
- We rejoined the insanity of the Paris Agreement regarding the environment
- Ended construction on the Border Wall
- Effectively ended the Keystone Pipeline
- Non-citizens will be included in the census
- Reversed the ‘Mexico City Policy’ – which blocked Federal funding for organizations that do abortions in foreign countries
Those moves are already calculated to cause the loss of 11,000 jobs in the energy sector. Union jobs. And they say they love the unions so much! All of this coming at a time when there are about 900,000 new unemployment claims each month. Is this cluelessness or perfidy?
Those are some of the official policies already in place. But friends of the administration are calling for harsh penalties for just about anyone who supports Trump or the Constitutional protections found in the Bill of Rights. The Left is calling for “a new system of domestic surveillance” aimed at what they are terming “domestic terrorism,” but what actually means anyone opposed to the new socialist bent of the US. Alex Stamos, a former security official for Facebook, is publicly calling for “social media companies to use the same tactics against U.S. citizens that they used to remove ISIS from the internet — ‘in collaboration with law enforcement’ — and that those tactics should be directly aimed at what he calls extremist ‘conservative influencers. Press freedoms are being abused by these actors.” [So to object or state a view other than one approved by our overlords is to abuse freedom of the press. That is exactly the type of speech the Founders were seeking to protect.] Some are even calling for members of Congress to be expelled or prosecuted for sedition for objecting to the certification of the Electoral College.[i]
Then you have Jeff Stein, using the platform of The Daily Beast to call for the creation of a “secret police” force reminding one of the Soviet NKVD or the East German Stasi. And calls are being made for a network of citizen informers.[ii] [How very Left-Wing Fascist of you, Jeff.]
The Church of Fear
Now much of the Church is living in fear of what’s to come. They hear the talk of camps and cancellation. But that is not where we are to live. God’s word assures us of our place in the center of His will. Isaiah 41:10-11 tells us: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.” (NIV)
And Deuteronomy 31:6 assures us: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.” (NIV) So, be courageous Church! Stand up for what we believe; the unadulterated word of God as laid down in the Holy Scriptures. We are the light of the world….Let’s not hide it under a basket.
