A Biblical Perspective Unfolding with Current Events!

By Mari Anne Andersen

 

I am writing to you this day to release upon you His love and His faith, trusting that God is still THE Supreme Being and still Sovereign in ALL His ways.  I am also writing to you giving you some “spiritual muscles” to exercise so you can stand firm in His Place as the days in which we live are truly numbered.  This is Good News, and this is exciting because we are all witnessing Biblical events that are written, documented, and prophesied.

“Now when these things begin to occur, stand tall and lift up your heads (in joy), because (suffering ends as) your redemption is drawing near.” 
Luke 21:28 (Amplified)

There is no question in any of our minds that America is going down the wrong path.  We see it, we hear it, and we read it.  America is stumbling in darkness on many fronts. We have lost our moral and spiritual compass; all kinds of immoral and political corruption is running rampant and along with it is great incompetency in our leadership at the White House.

Never in our history of our great nation has there been such absolute corruption in our government, such as an “Anti-Christ” movement, a “Socialist/Communist Agenda,” a “Corporate Stronghold of Madness” with transsexual ideology, and a strong “Anti-Semitic Movement” growing profusely daily.

It’s as though the the current Administration is under the influence of evil and is allowing the destruction and failure of our nation on every front.  There’s intimidation and injustice against Christians and our beliefs, the raging woke and liberal media, far left cities being burned down, far left drug infested homeless encampments all over on city properties, skyrocketing overdoses on fentanyl on a daily basis, police shot and murdered in the streets being targets of hatred and disgust, and brainwashing of our young children in the Public Schools about transsexual ideology and its deceitful philosophy.

Add to all of that, having a President and his son under the influence of a foreign country, allowing wide open borders where 6.2 million migrants have “Illegally” crossed the southern border since the current administatrion took office with at least 1.5 million “Gotaways” evading law enforcement entirely.  More and more gang members, drug traffickers, sex traffickers, and even individuals are on terrorism watchlists.  Border Patrol agents are exhausted, discouraged, and depleted emotionally and physically as they cannot do their due diligence as patrol agents.

It’s pure madness—pure chaos, crisis, and confusion that swirls all around on a daily basis.  This is not the land of the free but the land of captives and prisoners under the regime of the current Adminis-tration which continually moves further and further into lawlessness and insanity.
The New Testament term “lawless” is used to describe those who knowingly, deliberately, and willfully rebel against the laws of God and man.  They refuse to be under God’s rule and God’s government.  This is the current Administration, and the far left that is intentionally and purposefully going against God’s Holiness and Righteousness.  And when government and society ignore God’s law and the law of the land there is more lawlessness, resulting in ensuring chaos.  Of course, this is Satan’s final attempt to halt God’s work through a massive onslaught of evil and quite frankly he is succeeding on a massive scale!

Psalm 94:16 is now a rising chorus!
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? 
Who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity? (KJV)

Let me say clearly, I do not believe any politician can save America.  The only remedy is a full-blown revival and reformation taking place for the return to righteousness.

Proverbs 10:10 Winking at sin leads to sorrow; bold reproof leads to peace. (TLB) How many of us are winking at sin that is raging all around us and yes, even in some churches?  How many are turning a deaf ear and a blind eye to God’s truth regarding “alternative lifestyles?”  God created only two  genders —male and female.  There is none inbetween.  It’s clear in His Word!  We cannot reinterpret what gender we are to fit the political narrative of the day or the feelings of the day.  He or she is what God designed and created.  Let’s get back to sound doctrine—the truth—and refuse to listen to or apply false doctrine. 

However, one of the many signs of the End Times is lawlessness that will abound in cities, states, and regions that will cast off the rule of law, and anarchy will reign.  Basically, it’s now everyday news from the pandemic to lawlessness, to corruption, and to anarchy that prevails .

Also, we see the world-wide great falling away from the faith and the church as Jesus warned the disciples in Matthew 24:10-12 – “At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.  Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” (NIV)

 Yet, there is good news, too.  People in all nations, people of all tongues, people of all tribes are hearing the gospel and responding in huge numbers in China, Africa, and the Middle East.  So, while the great falling away is happening there is a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit bringing untold millions into the Kingdom.  Matthew 24:14 – “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.”  (NLV) We live in a world today where the Gospel—the Good News of Jesus the Messiah—is going around all the world via satellite TV, Internet, email, podcasts, YouTube and other video resources and for this we can celebrate and pray.

Israel & The End Times

Israel is God’s prophetic clock and so much of what is happening in Israel is prophetically unfolding with Biblical events.  Dear family of God, I urge you, encourage you, and strongly advise you to know what the Bible records historically and currently about Israel.  It is so essential that we keep an eye on Israel and know what scripture speaks about concerning Israel and the End Times.

Here are a few links: the best and most concise understandings of Israel, Hamas, and End Times. Pastor Gary Hamrick at Cornerstone Chapel Church and John Hagee are some of my references regarding this topic so please take time to listen to these in their entirety.

A Brief Summary of the End Times Signs

What is most amazing is that each of these prophecies listed here are now being fulfilled before our very eyes.  For more in depth of understanding go to www.evidencetobelieve.com and click on the “End Times” tab.  Scroll down to “A Brief Summary of the End Times Signs” to read more details about each aspect listed here:

  • Israel being gathered from among the nations, and made a nation once again
  • Travel and knowledge will be greatly increased
  • Global real-time communications will become a reality, so that the final two witnesses will be seen simultaneously around the world
  • Lawlessness will be abounding so that cities, states, and regions will cast off the rule of law, and anarchy will reign
  • World-wide falling away from the church, and at the same time an outpouring of the Holy Spirit
  • A developing one-world political and economic system, to be headed by a world ruler (the anti-Christ)
  • The coming one-world system will require everyone to receive a “mark“ to buy or sell
  • Rebuilding of the Jewish Temple upon the temple mount in Jerusalem (destroyed since 70 A.D.)
  • People scoffing and mocking at the notion of end times, saying “where is the promise of His coming? (2 Peter 3:3-4)
  • The Spirit of Anti-Christ will begin to grow in media, politics, and culture
  • Once the final One World Order begins to take final shape, the Anti-Christ will be revealed 
Why Am I Sharing All This?

Because God calls us to be alert. He calls us to know the signs and the seasons we are in and to keep our eye on Israel because God recorded historical things about Israel and the Bible records prophetical things that are yet to happen in Israel.

“Hamas” in Hebrew means “violence” and Hamas does NOT care about anyone—only their assignment to destroy Israel and the Jewish people.  That is written in their Hamas Covenant.  There has been great animosity and hatred going all the way back to the Book of Genesis between the children of Ishamel and the children of Issac and the jealousy of the promise God gave to the Israelites.

And don’t forget this plan of hatred by Hamas is incited and motivated by Satan himself.  Satan hates God’s Redemptive plan which was centered and located in Israel which is where the Savior was born, died, and rose again, and ascended from and is coming again.  Put simply, Satan is doing everything in his power to bring attention of an evil world with all their hatred against one location BECAUSE it represents the COVENANT REDEMPTIVE PLAN OF GOD. 

The Jewish people are NOT just inhabitants or occupiers of the land. It is so important to know the history, so please view the YouTube videos and read the articles on the “Evidence to Believe” website that I mentioned above.  The Jewish people are indigenous people of the land, and the Bible records the fact that the Jews were living there thousands of years before.  Through time the Jews were dispersed from their land, they were killed around the world, and they were oppressed around the world.  God titled the deed of the land of Israel to the Jewish people way back in the book of Genesis.

Given the current state of affairs in the world, it certainly looks and feels like the Messiah may be returning soon and the Bible instructs us to be vigilant but also states no one knows the hour or the day.  How should we prepare, how to be vigilant and how to respond?  Let’s hear what Peter says,
1 Peter 3:10-12 – For, “Whoever would love life and see good days must keep their tongues from evil and their lips from deceitful speech.  They must turn from evil and do good; they must seek peace and pursue it.  For the eyes of the Lord are n the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” (NIV)

So, draw near to Him so that YOU can hear the clouds of glory coming and the sounds of Heaven’s Spirit will empower us to stand and be strong, to see great and mighty miracles take place.God will shine His Light brighter and greater into our lives IF we let Him. This is not a message to shrink back from nor to be fearful.This is a message to say, “I know who holds tomorrow in the palm of His Hand because He will NOT forsake the righteous

Pray With Me

“Dear Father, we thank you, for Jesus our Messiah, who reigns and rules.We thank you for Your Word that we can trust and hold fast to the promise that Jesus is coming soon.We ask in the meantime to give us a heart to follow hard after You, that we will remain strong and steadfast in YOU even in this turbulent time so that our faith will grow stronger and stronger.

We pray for the peace of Jerusalem and ask that You give the leaders Divine Wisdom and keep the innocent from all harm and destruction.  We pray in Your Name for the Jewish people and the Muslims to come to know You as their Lord and Savior.  And let us lift our heads to the soon coming King of kings and Lord of Lords—Yeshua! In Jesus’ Name, Amen
