Victor Davis Hanson | Restoring America

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!

The Anti-christ spirit working in the midst of us

Globalism

Globalism is the next form of human government. And it can not be stopped

Simply because God put into their hearts to give their power to the beast, Revelation 17:17.

Ten world rulers who have no kingdom. They are global elites. They will agree and give their power to the beast.

This plan has been in the works for 2000 years.

“And every spirit that confessed not that Jesus is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of anti-christ, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” 1 John 4:3

The apostle John says the antichrist spirit is in the world.

What does the antichrist spirit do? It denies Christ! It denies that Jesus Christ is of God. It denies the power of God.

Jesus has a global mission and government. 

According to Revelation 12:10, the power of God’s Christ is active now. But the problem is that it works through his disciples. Jesus has been set on the right hand of God until his enemies are made his footstool.

The antichrist spirit is going to bring the Anti-christ into power.

The Anti-Christ is going to come into power because people want him.

The other side to this equation is that believers in the Church are influenced more by the spirit of the antichrist.

1 Timothy 4:1 says some shall depart from the faith, and shall give heed to seducing spirits and doctrine of devils

2 Timothy 3:5 Some “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.”

This latter group is most troublesome. Those who have a form of godliness but they are denying the power.

They believe in God, but they don’t believe it’s God’s will to heal. They don’t believe it is God’s will to prosper people.

Jesus said, ‘You shall receive power after that the Holy Spirit is come upon you to be my witnesses’ (Acts 1:8).

The word “power” in the Greek language is “dunamis,” meaning miraculous, dynamic, explosive, and abundant abilities.

Jesus explained this in John 14:12,

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.”

One of the reasons why there is a sense of powerlessness in the Church is because of the influence of the world. In the great harvest of the endtimes, Jesus said, there would be tares planted in our midst by the devil. Jesus called these tares children of the wicked one,  Matthew 13:38.

The children of the wicked one will advance his agenda.

Tares are functioning at all levels of leadership in the Church.

The world’s system promises wealth, health, safety, and welfare. This is why the world is going embrace Anti-christ!

And he gave gifts…

“But to every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.” Ephesians 4:7

“Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.” Ephesians 4:8

A very dear man of God went home to be with the Lord about two weeks ago. This man had been a blessing to me over the years. In the difficult times of my life, he inspired me to expect the best concerning the things of God. I enjoyed his ministry.

As I look back over the years of his ministry; he stood out as a very dedicated and committed minister. He was a gift to the Body of Christ.

God is a giver

God has always been a giver of many good gifts. Creation is a revelation in motion if his faithfulness!

God has given many gifts, but as in many cases, we don’t appreciate those gifts because of the wrapping paper those gifts come in.

When Jesus ascended up, he gave gifts! The gifts are for people.

The gifts are to enable us to come into the image and likeness of God!

Let’s go back to the original gifts of God given in the Garden of Eden,

In Genesis 2:9, in the garden of Eden, God planted every tree that was good for food. And he planted trees that were pleasant to the eyes.

The fruit trees of the garden were different from the fruit trees of the earth. The fruit trees of the garden were beautiful and pleasant to the eyes, in that  the trees were meant to reveal the glory of God! The trees were unique in that they imparted knowledge of the glory of God!

For example, I am sitting in the library writing this post. I am literally surrounded by millions of books on every conceivable subject! 

Adam and Eve opened the door to the reality of the knowledge of good and evil by eating its fruit.

Even in this darkness, God’s glory is revealed in that he is faithful and merciful, and he gives grace and eternal life!

All the fruit trees of the garden of Eden were gifts with special abilities!

Eat

God said to Adam, in Genesis 2:16, concerning the fruit trees of the garden, literally, “eating you shall eat.”

The fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was his sacrifice of worship. It was his tool of service.

The fruit of the tree of life was his reward for faithful service! The tree of life could have imparted to Adam, an unending life even in a fallen state, Genesis 3:22

“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.”

Grace

“But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ” Ephesians 4:7

Every one of us has received an equal measure of the gift of grace that was given to Jesus Christ.

There is another scripture that says, “we are hiers of God and joint heirs with Jesus Christ.” (Romans 8:17).

So whatever has been given to Jesus by God has also been given to us!

There is no doubt that Jesus opened a tremendous door of opportunity for us!

Hebrews 10:19-20,

“Having therefore boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.”

The garden of Eden has been restored. Adam’s sacrifice was fruit that came from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Our sacrifice is the blood of the Lamb of God!

The battle that we face every single day, day in and day out, is making a deliberate decision to eat from the tree of life or eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Sorry to say, most believers are eating from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Grace is not grace until it shows up doing what grace was designed to do for that season in your life!

Every season

John 1:16, “And of his fulness have we all received, and grace for grace.”

Jesus is the living bread that came down from heaven, John 6:51

Living things have the gift of life in them. One of the amazing things about life is that it is associated with revelation through the light of knowledge. For example, John says,

“In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And light shineth in darkness; and darkness comprehended it not.” John 1:4

God breathed the breath of life in Adam. who was formed from the dust of the ground, and he became a living soul; 

Living Father, “For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.” John 5:26

“As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.” John 6:57

How do you eat?

Believe and receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. By feeding on the word of God daily and claiming by faith the promises. Thank God for his grace that comes to you on a daily basis. Look for it, expect grace to show up, turn to the promises first…

John 8:31-32

“Then said Jesus to those Jews which believe on him, if you continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

Grace & peace!
