"In the day you eat of it, you shall become as God deciding for yourself what is right and wrong." Genesis 3:4 paraphrase

While this is typical of anyone disregarding YHVH's instruction, it becomes especially grotesque when power is used to establish personal agenda at any cost. Law is subject to the whims of the person who then becomes his/her own law, ever changing to suit the flavor of the day. Under this form of government, either self or national, destruction and deterioration are the only result.

I am not a political activist. I am a watchman on the wall. I follow trends and watch with expectation as current events mirror Scriptural prophecy. I realize that legally I am a citizen of the United States of America, but spiritually I belong to a kingdom not of this world. This kingdom has absolute and unchanging authority that can be trusted because it is absolute and unchanging. Think about it. How much confidence is it possible to have in something that is ever changing? Today, you can do this or that, but tomorrow it will get you arrested. With YHVH there is no variableness nor shadow of change. He is ever faithful! Who ya gonna trust? Government? Yourself? Or the One who by definition cannot fail? 

1 Timothy 3:3-8

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,5 holding to a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 7[They are] always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 As those who resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, disapproved concerning the faith.

The following quote is from the article linked below:

“We now know that PDD [25] sanctioned American armed force participation in U.N. multilateral peacekeeping operations without any regard to whether the Clinton administration’s new policy complied with UNPA requirements limiting U.S. participation in either U.N. peace enforcement or peace keeping operations,” a support brief said.

“Indeed, there is strong evidence in the classified versions of PDD 25 and PRD 13 to support a claim that the Clinton administration viewed UNPA (read - existing law) as an obstacle to be avoided, rather than a law to be obeyed.”

The brief continued, “Now that PDD 25 has been declassified, obtained, and reviewed, the executive order can be seen as little more than camouflage for a presidential administration to do what it wanted to do, irrespective of the law.”

There are many questions about what is going on with politics in the world. The U.S. presidential election is set to take place in November. Our choice options are six of one and half a dozen of another, or in other words, no choice at all. The only difference between party lines is the spelling of their respective names. It is not my intention to be negative or bitter. It just is what it is. I pray for my leaders and my government. It is a commandment.

YHVH appoints the governments and leaders according to the faith or lack thereof of the people. In other words, we get what we deserve. I am not saying as believers we deserve it, but we will witness and be exposed to it.

Here is a quote you might find interesting:

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. ” 
― Alexis de Tocqueville

With the national economy approaching auto destruct for this very reason and everything in place to secure a dictatorship, I am not sure there will even be another presidential election, if you can call the current electoral process an election. Scripture speaks of this One World everything and we are privileged to have been selected to witness prophecy fulfilling itself! We are also told not to be anxious because of it. Prepare your hearts, and establish His Truth deep within. That is the warfare. That is the security we have in and through Messiah! He is our provision, our protection, our healing, our righteousness and our peace, not government. 

YHVH keeps track of His own and does not forget their deeds. When times get rough, we will not bow to another, and when the shelves are stripped bare, we will not go hungry. When we are weak, HE is strong. He is our portion, He is our help, He is ALL in ALL!
