Yes, these are terrible times. Terrible times! Jesus made that clear. Paul made it clear.
And yes, we know the Lord is returning soon.
But that does not mean we are to sit and do nothing. We must – as always – acknowledge the Lord before people if we expect him to acknowledge us before God. We must be about his work, which is our work if we are believers.
We must tell others the truth. Only the truth will set people free.
We live in a time of massive lying and deception, of graft and moral and financial corruption on the part of government and business and media and education leaders. It is a time we have not seen before in America.
This is a unique time. It is the last days.
We are not seeing one or two problems. We are seeing a great unending number on a national and world stage.
And they are being made worse by the behavior and actions of deceived, confused evil persons – inept persons – operating in key positions.
Massive phony issues occupy the attention of the media and government, and thus of the people, while real life and death issues play out on the world stage.
A terrible pestilence – covid – rages throughout the world. Yes, it is serious and it is deadly for some people who catch it. But not for most. Pestilence is one of Jesus’ prophecies about the times we are living in. Covid is a pestilence.
In recent months there has been a great fall in the death rate from this disease. That death rate is still low, basically at the low levels of a little more than a couple months ago when we were all exulting at the demise of covid. You don’t hear that do you? No, you just hear the panic and scare tactics of the media and government bureaucrats citing the great increase in cases. But just who are these in the hospital today? And who are the ones dying? Overwhelmingly, they are people who are not vaccinated.
Yet the government - national, state, local - in so much of the country has responded again with inane tactics, forcing everyone to wear masks, even the great number of vaccinated people! Why?
- Where do the local boards get this authority?
- Where are the courts in all this? The Supreme Court may as well not exist.
Yes, it seems the Delta variance of the virus is highly contagious. Yes, hospitals are more crowded and cases have increased greatly. But no, there is not a really great increase in deaths. Either the hospitals are better at treating covid or this variance is not as deadly as the original disease.
In places where almost all adults are vaccinated, local authorities have still ordered masks! It is inane. It is frightening, the power and megalomania of those in positions of governmental authority.
Have you seen some wearing masks even while driving by themselves? So many Americans just cannot think clearly in all this confusion.
The medical world has failed us greatly. Not the individual doctors and nurses who have sacrificed greatly and risked their own lives to care for covid patients. No, the establishment – the national health organizations. They have sold themselves out for political gain and expectations of the groups in charge, those ungodly who seek more and more control of the populace.
Of course, I am sad when anyone dies from covid. But the death rate is far less than that from cancer, from heart disease.
Looking further, our authorities and media and TV personnel have been so focused on horrible, false issues that they totally missed real survival issues. They rail about imaginary harmful political theories like critical race theory or woke and cancel culture politics that seek to change even common sense things (calling a pregnant woman a birthing person). While they are so focused on spending more and more imaginary money, crime and violence grow greatly and violent groups assault and attack and destroy without fear of being arrested or stopped. At the southern border hundreds of thousands of unknown and illegal aliens come easily into the nation.
Throughout history the United States has had immigration policies to protect the people of the nation and to provide for orderly immigration of people who will be a positive addition to the country. All nations have immigration controls. Other countries do not allow anyone to just come in. The policy at the southern border is a death wish for the nation.
And this list just goes on and on. For some time now there has been great effort of government and media and entertainment and business to back the LGBTQ movement and the transgender movement. The effort is obviously to make this lifestyle look mainstream. But it is not. It is a small minority of the population. Just a couple years ago the LGBTQ group was way below 5 % of the population, more like 2% according to Gallup. And the transgender movement was a tiny fraction of one percent.
So these deceived false leaders are busy training the military about critical race theory and getting balance of every conceivable group in there, all the while evil operates throughout the world. And now we have this current Afghanistan catastrophe. Those in power in the US do not understand how things happen in the world. That they were surprised the horribly evil Taliban took over Afghanistan so quickly tells you all you need to know about our American leaders.
The US is in great trouble. It has lost, confused, deceived, and in many cases evil persons in positions of leadership in all areas. The devil has been at work a long time. He knows the end is here for him, but he is putting up a fight, isn’t he.
Keep your eyes on Jesus. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you every step of your day. Ask him to orchestrate your life. Represent the Lord in all situations. Tell others. Ask for divine encounters.
Time is short. How short? Don’t know specifically. But obviously very short.
Stand up for the Lord, for truth. Be bold. Remember those who built America, who conquered the West, who crossed the Atlantic to start a new life, who went to the moon.
Keep focused on God’s priorities. They are your priorities.
Use the tools God has given you for health, protection, and all aspects of life.
This is not a game we are living in. Most of those in authority do not know what they are doing. Yes, it is a frightening time.
But we believers know Jesus.
