The Curse

The Curse

What it is? The curse is death. According to Genesis 2:17, the day Adam ate the forbidden fruit, he would die. The curse is the reversal of life

The day Adam ate the forbidden fruit, life departed from his soul and he knew he was naked. Did God put death on Adam? No! Death was a clause included in the contract. What contract? The covenant God made with Adam.

“And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou latest thereof thou shalt surely die.” Genesis 2:15-17

Where does the curse get its power? The curse gets its power from a broken contract. The curse automatically kicked into high gear when the contract was broken. The curse stripped of his clothing. Decay began to manifest in his body.

God defined the curse when he judged Adam’s transgression. The curse came through Adam’s sin because the contract was made with Adam.

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.”

God defines death

“And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat of the herb of the field; in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.”

The curse causes life to cease, to bring man to back to dust. The curse produces sorrow, sweat and toil.

God had to follow through with the curse

“And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he wads taken.” Genesis 3:22-23 (KJV)

IF Adam had gotten access to the tree of life, he could have lived forever in a fallen state.

Adam felled into darkness

Adam was created to be a servant; to serve, to turn soil. Adam functioned in the office of a steward. He was created to steward creation toward a finished product.

“… and there was not a man to till the ground.” Genesis 2:5 (KJV)

Revelation 22:3 (KJV) “And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it: and his servants shall serve him.”

Adam was formed from the dust of the earth. He was created a little lower than the angels,

“What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honor. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet.” Psalms 8:4-6 (KJV)

“Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands.” Hebrews 2:7 (KJV)

Adam exalted himself above God when he set aside the covenant and took the sacrifice for himself. The stated purpose for eating the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was to be like God knowing good and evil. Man has been on the journey of self-exaltation for the last six thousand years. We are in the period of time when the human race shall finally arrive to total rebellion against God.

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition: who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 (KJV)

Revelation 13

“… And the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority” Revelation 13:2

“And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.” Revelation 13:6 (KJV)

Man has and will curse God. They will speak evil against all that represents God. They will deny him.

“And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” Revelation 13:7-8 (KJV)

It’s critically important that we know what the curse is and how it works.

Satan has no power or authority in the earth apart from what is given to him by people. He needs people to carry out his schemes for world domination. Satan tempted Jesus after showing him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

“And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.” Luke 4:6-7 (KJV)

Jesus took Satan back to God’s original vision for man. Jesus said,

“And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, AND HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE.” Luke 4:8 (KJV)

Satan will always tempt you to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Then he will bring death into your life. He comes to steal, kill and destroy.

The curse is in the world and it is working everyday in every way to take you out. Because the earth is in continuously bringing forth the curse, the curse is growing in more ways than it has from the day it was released. Sickness and disease is growing at an alarming rates.

Jesus came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. He is the good shepherd and he leads his sheep to green pastures.

Jesus bore the curse for you so that the original blessing could be restored

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.” Galatians 3:13 (KJV)

“Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.” Hebrews 2:14-15 (KJV)

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 (KJV)

The Edenic Blessing is for the complete duration, from start to finish, of Adam’s assignment. Adam’s assignment will be completed at the end of Jesus’ millennial reign, which is detailed in Revelation chapter 20.

In Revelation 21, the city of the New Jerusalem descends from God. God makes all things new. He creates a new heaven and earth. The servants of the LORD shall reign on earth.

We have to take a deep dive into what the curse is so that we can appreciate God’s solution. Many people don’t think they need God. Christians are looking to the world system as their source. They don’t understand that the world system is cursed. The curse is in the world and on the world.

In our next segment, we will look at the curse as detailed in Deuteronomy 28:15-68.

Grace & peace!

Why Poverty?

Poverty is one of the symptoms of the curse.

The root cause for all things can always be traced back to the garden of Eden, to one tree, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

A contract was broken. Adam and Eve, our fore-parents, made a bad decision that resulted in the curse.

The descendants of Adam and Eve made bad decisions, which caused the human race to lose 90% of its lifespan. In Genesis 6, God said his Spirit will not strive with man, so his lifespan was cut 120 years:

“And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.” Genesis 6:3

Contractual agreement governed the garden of Eden Genesis 2:15-17

“And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: FOR IN THE DAY THAT THOU EATEST THEREOF THOU SHALT SURELY DIE.”

God bult the house, and he sets the rules. He knew man had the potential to know good and evil because man was created to be like God. God chose to retain that knowledge to himself. But a contract is a contract, and every human being on the face of the planet is subject to the contract.

In grade school, we had to stand every morning, place our right hand over our hearts, and pIedge allegiance to the flag of the United of America, and we sing, “My Country Tis of Thee.”

I enlisted in the military service and had to take the oath of office. I raised my right hand and swore allegiance to the Constitution of the United States of America. The moment I entered Marine Corp Recruit Depot, San Diego California, I got off the bus and stood on the yellow foot prints, I informed that I am now subject to the Uniformed Code of Military Justice. The moment I was honorably discharged from military service, I was reminded that I was still subject to the Uniformed Code of Military Justice for the next 24 hours.

We live in a land governed by a constitution. We live under the law, rules, and regulations of the land we were born in or currently reside. There are people who claim to be sovereign citizens not subject to the laws of the land. There are no sovereign independent agents.

Covenant

Adam was created from the dust of the ground. God breathed the breath of life into Adam’s nostrils, and man became a living soul.

Adam was placed into the garden of Eden, and the covenant/contract was explained to him.

Adam was governed by this contract. Contract is a present-day term for covenant. We have many names for covenant such as contract, binding agreement, pledge, compact, treaty, pact…

Covenants govern things like employment contracts, cell phones, and internet service. All things function under legal binding contracts. If you don’t agree to their contract, you can’t use their services.

Credit cards issuers make the users of their services sign a binding contract. Your payment for their services have to be in their office on a specific date, if not they can penalize you by charging you a higher interest rate.

The Curse

Genesis 2:17-19

“And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat the herb of the field; in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and dust shall thou return.”

The curse produces death. The purpose of the curse is to bring a person to a state of death.

The curse works in three ways: poverty, sickness, and disease. The curse causes struggle and sorrow. The curse brings about the death cycle. The curse is always working on the earth. The purpose of the curse is reduction. The curse increases effort or struggle. Instead of reaping an abundant supply, your supply is being reduced. You have to spend more money for less product.

The Curse is generational

“And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: and he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.” Genesis 5:29

The people of Noah’s day struggled with getting the earth to reproduce. The work and toil of their hands were cursed.

Romans 5:14

“Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.”

Each succeeding covenant

The terms of the contract become evident as God made succeeding covenants with man.

The Edenic covenant was made with Adam before the fall.

The Adamic covenant was made with Adam after the fall in the garden. It is detailed in Genesis 3:14-21. God added a redemption clause in Adamic covenant. God said, the Seed of the Woman would bruise the head of the Serpent, and Serpent would bruise his heel, Genesis 3:15. That covenant promise was fulfilled, Revelation 12:4-5.

“… the dragon  stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.”

From there, Satan was cast out of heaven. Satan, aka, the Serpent, Satan, the devil, and the dragon, which deceives the whole earth.

God’s covenant with Noah and his family

God made a covenant with man after the flood. In Genesis 9:9,

“And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you.

That covenant was broken at the tower of Babel.

God made a covenant with Abraham and his seed, Genesis 17:7-8

Abraham’s physical seed became the nation of Israel. God dealt with them about robbing him. The people were puzzled by God’s accusation. GOD SAID

Malachi 3:8-12

“Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have ye robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the DEVOURER for your sake, and he shall not DESTROY the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.”

Abraham’s spiritual seed came through the ministry of Jesus!

God made a covenant with Jesus and his seed in John 3:16. The covenant of grace, which is offered to whosoever believes.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Galatians 3:29, ‘If you be Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed and hiers according to the promise.’

One last thought about covenant:

God always gives man a way out. For example, in Genesis 3:24, God drove Adam out of the garden of Eden because he had access to the fruit of the tree of life, and could eat, and live forever in a fallen state. Therefore, it was an act of mercy that God drove him out of the garden.

“So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherbims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.”

A Detail description of the Curse

Deuteronomy 28:15-68

In Deuteronomy 28:15-68, is a detail description of the curse according to the law of Moses.

“But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:”

Below is some of the details of the curse. The curse is described as being brought upon by the LORD. The curse comes upon and overtakes in the following ways:

Cursed in the city, field, basket, storehouses,

Cursed is the fruit of your body, land, cattle, and flocks of sheep

Cursed coming in and going out

The LORD shall send upon you cursing, vexation, rebuke in all everything you put your hands to do until you perish quickly because of your wickedness

The LORD shall make pestilence cleave unto you until he have consumed you off the land

The LORD shall smite thee with a consumption, and with a fever, inflammation, extreme burning, with sword, with blasting, mildew and they shall pursue you until you die

The heaven that is over your head shall be brass. The earth under you shall be iron.

The LORD shall make the rain of your land powder and dust; from heaven shall come down upon you until you are destroyed

The LORD shall cause you to be smitten before your enemies: you shall go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them: and shalt be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth.

Your carcase shall be meat unto all fowls of the air, beast of the earth and no man shall fray them away

The LORD will smite you with the botch of Egypt, and with emeralds, with scab, with the itch which can not be healed

The LORD shall smite you with madness, blindness and astonishment of heart. You shall grope at noonday, as the growth in darkness. You shall not prosper in your ways. You shall be oppressed and spoiled always and no man shall save you

You shall marry a wife and another man shall lie with her. You will build a house and not live therein. You shall a choice vineyard and use it common grapes.

Your ox shall be killed before your eyes and you shall not eat of it. Your ass shall be violently taken in front of your face and shall not be returned. Your sheep shall be given to your enemies and none shall rescue them.

Your sons and daughters shall be given to another and your eyes shall look for and shall long for them all day long and there shall not be might in your hands to rescue them

The LORD will make your plagues wonderful, the plague of your seed, great plagues of long continuance, sore sickness of long continuance

He shall bring upon you all the diseases of Egypt, and they shall cleave upon you. Every sickness and plague which not written in the book of this law, the LORD will bring upon you until you be destroyed.

And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you. good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and bring you to mouth; and you shall be plucked from off the land.

additional curse of Revelation 22:18

“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophesy of this book, if any man shall add into these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that written in this book: and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.“

Final words

The curse was removed from off the ground in Genesis 8:21-22

“And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”

GOD WAS PLEASED with the sacrifice that Noah offered and then made promises, one which God would give consistent seed time harvest.

Portions of the curse were removed. The curse is still very much active. One of the manifestations of the curse is famine. Famines are still with us.

The curse is more active today because of corrupt people. Corrupt people are hoarding resources in order to charge exorbitant prices. They are using their God ordained dominion to profit off of people’s misery.

Covenant promises supercede the curse. 

Christ has redeemed us from the curse being made a curse for us so that the covenant blessings of Abraham may come upon the Gentiles. 

2 Peter 1:2-4

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as his DIVINE POWER HATH GIVEN UNTO US ALL THINGS THAT PERTAIN UNTO LIFE AND GODLINESS THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF HIM THAT CALLED US TO GLORY AND VIRTUE:

This is what mess a lot of people up:

“Whereby are given unto us EXCEEDING GREAT and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that BY THESE ye might be partakers of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that is in the world THROUGH LUST.“

They don’t know the contract. They never fully understood or walked out the terms of the covenant. So the curse is working on them. The curse is working on people around them. The curse is manifesting in so many different ways.

You could be thriving financially, but your family hates you! Or you could be plagued with medical issues.

On the other hand, no matter how much gasoline prices or food prices, medical insurance increases, my covenant, my contract with God promises me power to overcome the curse.

When you are functioning under the curse, you need credit cards in order to survive. You depend on man as your source.

The curse will be removed

Revelation 21:3-4

“And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with man, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

Revelation 21:5

“And he that sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto, Write: for these words are faithful and true.”

Grace & peace!

Give us a man to fight our battles!

The Man

Adam was the first man created from the dust of the ground to be an administrator of earth. His job was to plant seed to steward the earth into the garden of Eden.

Adam, the man, was created for a specific function. God created Adam in his image and likeness.

Adam was not created to be God or invited to be in the same class with God. Adam was given God-like abilities to steward the earth into a finished product.

In order for Adam to be in the same class with God, he would have to be able to handle the knowledge of good and evil.

This is why God said, according to Genesis 3:22-23

“And LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever: therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.”

We have been in this reality called the knowledge of good and evil for 6000 years!

Because of the reality of the knowledge of good and evil, Adam’s generation ended at the great flood of Noah’s days. The earth was filled with violence. Every thought and imagination of his heart was only to do evil. Man’s lifespan was reduced 120 years. These were the days of the gaints. Violence had filled the earth. Man took what wanted!

The conclusion is that man was never created to handle the knowledge of good and evil. He was created for God’s pleasure. 

Noah’s generation

Noah’s generation built a city called Babel. Their stated goal was let us build a tower to reach into heaven. Let us make a name for ourselves. They departed from their original instructions. They decided to build a city, a tower, and make a name for themselves. Again, they departed from the vision and wanted to make a name for themselves!

Each succeeding generation of man has fallen at trying to be God.

The same thing happened in the days of Samuel. The elders wanted a king to be appointed over them because the sons of Samuel were corrupt and took brides.

1 Samuel 8:6-7

“But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD. And the LORD  said unto Samuel. Hearken unto voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.”

God never walked away from the original vision he set up in the garden of Eden. God chose Israel to be the physical and spiritual model of his original vision. The promised land was a symbolic representation of the earth under God’s rule. The Tabernacle of Moses was a type of the Garden of Eden.

Samuel told the elders a king would diminish and take their inheritance. But the people refused to listen to Samuel.

1 Samuel 8:19-20

“Nevertheless the people refused to obey voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us: that we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.”

By the time Israel’s fourth king came into power, Solomon’s son Solomon had reduced the people to servants through heavy taxation.

The knowledge of good and evil has always been the front runner to tyranny.

This mentality prevails in our day

-But we will have a king over us- Somebody to take responsibility for us

-We will be like the nations- We want somebody’s esle benefit plan. 

-Our king will judge us- We want justice

-Our king will go before us – We want our someone to take care of us

‘Our king will fight our battles- We want someone to fight our battles.

Satan takes advantage of man’s inability to be his own God. Man was not created by God to be God.

According Revelation 4:11, the testimony of heavenly beings who worship in the presence of God:

“Thou art worthy, O LORD, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.“

All things have been created for God’s for God’s purposes and for his pleasure. God doesn’t get any pleasure out of people suffering violence. It grieves him.

Man takes the knowledge of good and evil to exalt himself.

Adolp Hitler started out with a noble vision to advance his people, which led to the holocaust and millions and millions of people being killed.

Anti-christ is coming

According to 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4

“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.”

This spirit is called the anti-Christ, in that it wants to be Christ. It is presently working in every part of society to bring everyone into global government. Every day, in every way, we are being brought into the system. 

The fore runners to global government are going: -give us a king to fight our battles, to take care of us, to heal our bodies to put food on our table to give us jobs.

The Anti-christ is going to answer all these questions. He is going to kill all those who oppose him. He is going to change laws. He is going to totally control the economics of buying and selling. No one will be able to buy or sell without the number of his name, Revelation 13:17

But this world’s system of things is swiftly coming to an end:

God is going to put it into their hearts to give their power to the beast, Revelation 17:17

God is going to send them strong  delusions

“Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all decievableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. AND FOR THIS CAUSE GOD SHALL SEND THEM STRONG DELUSION,  THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE.”

But why would God do something like that?

“THAT THEY ALL MIGHT BE DAMNED WHO BELIEVE NOT THE TRUTH, BUT HAD PLEASURE IN UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.” 2 THESSALONIANS 2:11-12

But why?

Just as the Anti-christ system has been working in the world, so has the goodness and grace of God.

“Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.” Romans 1:19

They are without excuse! Romans 1:20

Choice

Every day, you get to choose to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil or the tree of life.

Are you reaching for the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil, or are you reaching for the tree of life?

The answer is on the inside of you! It’s not in the world system!

The same life energy that gave breath to Adam is the same life God gives as a gift. We call it eternal life.

Notice that once life entered into Adam’s body, which was formed from the dust of the ground, it enabled him to have a relationship with the God of creation.

Life taught him everything he needed to know. It made his heart beat. It healed his body. God himself said that the fruit from the tree of life would have given him the power to live forever, even in a fallen state. Genesis 3:22

Life

This is what God is doing every single day, day in and day out, 

He gives the gift of life

Life is flowing like a well of living water and as a river of living water.

In Revelation 22:1, the last revelation of eternal life is revealed as a river of water of life flowing out of the throne of God!

But for now, in this reality of the knowledge of good and evil, God put the river of life inside of you!

1 John 5:9-10

“If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. He that believeth on Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.”

What is the record/witness?

1 John 5:11-12

“And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is on his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” 

We have the witness of the record living inside of us.

When need arises, who do you turn to in the time of trouble?

1 John 2:27

“But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and us no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.”

The anointing that the apostle John is talking about is the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of life (Romans 8:10).

I realize that if life is my choice versus the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, I have to make daily demands on this gift of life.

I have to take the promises of God and claim that I believe I receive life in my body, in my finances, and in my home.

Remember, God designed “seed” to transmit life. Seed is pro-vision. Seed is for the vision.

Seed contains a blueprint for life to flow!

“For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.”

Grace & peace!

One hour with the beast

“And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.” Revelation 17:12-13 (KJV)

There are ten kings which have no kingdom. They are NOT heads of government. They are powerful people they have power, strength, one common purpose to give their alliance to one man.

This was God’s original plan when he formed and created Adam. This is going to be God’s plan in the future to unify humanity under the leadership of Jesus Christ.

Jesus defeated Satan, took the key of death, hell and the grave. God raised Jesus up and seated him in heavenly places on his right hand. Satan was cast out of heaven to the earth where he has a limited time before being cast into a bottomless pit to begin a thousand year prison sentence (Revelation 20).

Before his prison sentence, Satan will convince ten powerful people to give their power and strength to one man known as The Beast, the antichrist. These TEN powerful people shall rule with The Beast for one hour.

Nebuchadnezzar’s dream

God revealed to Nebuchadnezzar the entire government history of man. The final system of man is represented by the toes of the feet.

“And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of the potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou safest the iron mixed with miry clay. And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.” Daniel 2:41-42 (KJV)

And whereas thou safest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one too another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.” Daniel 2:43 (KJV)

Who is, “they shall mingle themselves with the seed of man?” The battle that we fight particularly in the church is a spiritual battle according to apostle Paul. He said our warfare is not with flesh and blood but powerful demonic spirits who exercise global influence called principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places.

The other battle that we fight is equally probably more effective than demonic spirits. It is called “Division.” Two visions. There are two visions that compete one with the other for resources and power. In my experiences as a minister, I have repeatedly seen political agendas of people keep the Church from coming together to advance the purposes of God.

Mingling of political agendas inspired by Satan. It is globalistic! It is presently working in the nations of the world. The Obama Foundation Leaders Program is one such program with noble ideas, but it is a tool for training leaders from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the United States with a globalistic view.

It is a sign of our times, God is going to bring a swift conclusion to this madness.

“And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” Daniel 2:44 (KJV)

God has set up a plan from the beginning of time. He committed it to Adam. Adam lost it during the fall. Satan took advantage of Adam’s fall and set up a kingdom of his own.

During the last 2000 years of human history, God has raised his Son Jesus Christ to sit on Adam’s throne. After he put down all authority and power, when all things are subject to him, then Jesus will turn the kingdom over to God, 1 Corinthians 15:22-28 (KJV)

Shortly after WW1 and WW2, most governments switched from monarchies to republics. The human race is fast approaching another shift in government to global government headed by one man called the beast, the anti-christ.

Ten kings, powerful people, wealthy global elites, who are not heads of government; but they are going to dismantle the present governmental systems simply because God put it in their hearts to do so, to fulfill his will, Revelation 17:17. The human race will transition to a global government.

1 Thessalonians 2:7, the Bible calls it the mystery of iniquity doth already work!

According to 1 Thessalonians 2:4, talking about the man, the anti-christ, 

“Who opposeth and exalted himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.”

This is the final act of man’s rebellion and defiance

Revelation 18:7 “For in one hour so great riches is come to nought…”

Keep your eyes and ears open because this is the time to “Store your treasures in heaven.”

This is a good interview. Noble cause, but it’s not going to succeed, simply because God has put it into the hearts of the global elite to give their power to the beast, Revelation 17:17.

My question is, do people take into consideration that God has a plan?

There is going to be a global showdown. The Babylonian system of government, with its alliance of kings and merchants, is coming into judgment

We are coming to an end of the history of the governments of man!

We are in the ten toes of Daniel prophesy of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream!
