As we consider the lessons from the recent elections, a major factor was that more moral firewalls were breeched as America continues down the road defined by the Lord in His Word as “wickedness.” This is the road He affirms that He will judge the world for. We are no doubt headed for increasingly severe judgment. We must keep in mind that God’s judgment is not condemnation or destruction but discipline from the Lord for those He loves.

          The Lord usually calls, beckons, and even reasons with nations before He sends judgment. When judgment is necessary, He is...

         Last week we began addressing some of the lessons we received from the recent U.S. elections. I would like to carry the truth of Psalm 115:16 just a bit further, “The heavens are the heavens of the Lord, but the earth He has given to the sons of men.”

          As stated, this is why the Lord will not do things on the earth until we pray—He has delegated authority over the earth to men. This is also why the Lord would allow us to vote for a President that may not have been His choice and why He...

         Our world is becoming more polarized. This is to be expected. We are coming to the end of this age, which will be the ultimate battle between light and darkness.

         Now that the elections are over, the real work begins. The greatest event in human history after Jesus walked the earth is about to begin—the harvest that is the end of this age. Fulfilling the Great Commission will again become the focus of the body of Christ. The world will soon hear the gospel of the kingdom to prepare the way for the King.

          We also will see troubles in this world increase. This should encourage us, not discourage us. Paul quoted in Acts 14:22 that he went about “strengthening and encouraging the churches, telling them that through...

          Jesus Christ is the answer to every human problem. Every problem on earth is basically the result of man thinking that we can run our lives and this world without God. The answer to every problem is found by returning to Him. It is that simple.       

          Jesus does not just have the answer for us—He is the answer. He is the path of life, and He is the true desire of every human heart. We were created to have fellowship with Him. We will never be fulfilled or have peace until our lives are knit together with...
