“Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.” (Romans 1:32)
“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” (Prov. 29:2)
In many nations today the wicked are indeed in positions of the highest authority, and while they have either enacted laws or lobbied for them that will benefit themselves financially, there has of late been a modification to the reach of their wickedness, and it has been towards what are considered moral constructs, those which reside in the basest of people.
The thoughts of those that would once never be expressed openly in the light are now not only being acted upon publicly, but legally enabled and protected by those wicked men in positions of authority. And so, it reveals their true heart as well.
“Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.” (Eccl. 8:11)
There is a very important truth here that perhaps many who have been born-again have forgotten, or chosen to not accept as truth, it is the Almighty that has placed those wicked and vile men in those positions of authority, and for a very specific reason.
The Rapture and the days of Jacob’s Troubles will not arrive when the righteous are ruling, evil does not grow and expand unless the Lord allows it to. The truth of Matthew 24:22, “And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” must be preceded by those with itchy ears, those who are lovers of self, by iniquity abounding, by men placed into positions of power who will enable the brute beasts to sin willfully and without consequences.
Evil my friends must be called good first.
As in the days our Savior walked upon this earth and the only sign was the sign of Jonah that would be revealed, these are the signs we should have already recognized. As the Most High set up Pharoah and Nebuchadnezzar, He has placed these wicked men in those positions of highest authority to bring about His will on this planet, and His will is being done on earth as it is in heaven. What is approaching cannot be stopped or hindered, only accepted by and stood firmly on the truths and promises of His Word.
Watching how wickedly the wicked are behaving will avail you nothing, looking for, searching continuously for some new “next sign” will cause you to stray off the path, attempting to remove these people from the places God Himself has set them in is honorable, but a fruitless endeavor. This is not a defeatist mentality, it is truth, it is the will of God, and He has chosen us to live in these days.
“And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.” (Rev. 16:7)
“And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matt. 3:2)
The warnings have not changed, eternal salvation or eternal damnation.
This is the truth that those who will be left behind and will be called by the Almighty for His glory will profess, not the length of time the days of Tribulation will last, not the signs and wonders of the Lord that will be clearly seen by all during those days, but of the same truth that has always been offered by men of God, the offering of eternal life or eternal damnation.
Focus on what matters my friends, do not get caught up in the present, you have already looked up and seen that your redemption draws nigh, the signs, if you like, have been visible for quite some time. Get back to what you have been called to do, stop thinking of yourself, stop offering portents of doom, of the approaching darkness, and start offering them the truth of living in His eternal light.
The wicked are ruling by God’s design, stay on the path as it grows darker.
