They Ignore It All
So, the plan is to push a narrative and do the things that bring that narrative to fruition. While doing that, they willfully ignore any information that rises to the surface that calls their narrative into question and will vilify anyone who sees behind the curtain and wants to bring that out into the open.
Science? Really?
So folks, in the coming weeks and months we will all be faced with the same mandates we faced during the original COVID. Mentally prepare yourself for the ever-widening mask, social distancing and even jab mandates. If and when that doesn’t cause enough fear in society, we should expect to see “climate change” lock-downs on top of that, which I’m assuming will mean little or no travel without express permission. Law enforcement will be just “doing their jobs” by ticketing and even possibly arresting people who ignore and set aside these mandates.
Can Society Survive This?
All of these things – the lack of discernment, the problems with a growing number of Christian leaders, etc. – all provide telltale clues that God’s Word is coming to fruition. People today – both inside and outside of the Church – are more concerned with racial reconciliation, embracing homosexuals, lesbians and transgenders and doing whatever they can to impoverish their congregations by not actually preaching God’s Word, but preaching around it; using a Scripture here or there as a spring board into brainwashing attendees rather than edifying them.

Full Control via Digital A.I.
I wish I could say that things will get better. They won’t. They are going to worsen. We can be assured of that so draw close to our Lord and hold on tight. He has your back. I’ll end with one of my favorite sections of Scripture that I’ve memorized and repeat often (along with Isaiah 41:10), Psalm 147:17-20 (ESV). Read it. Memorize it. Repeat it to yourself. Allow that truth to wash over you as you face each new storm in life. He has not forgotten or rejected you. Learn to fear offending Him through an increase in love for Him. Endeavor to be as truthful as you can be in your prayers to Him. Trust Him for His provision. Everything He does is righteous and gracious.
Normalcy is the Cure
So again, what should our response be to all of this? I can only think of one real substantive response that will allow us to retain our dignity and purposefully create for ourselves some semblance of well-being in the midst of the growing behemoth of corruption that seeks to swallow all dissenters up and conform us to the final global order.
Thought Patterns
I’ve always been a glass half empty kind of person. Always. It’s simply my nature and I realize it largely has to do with impact my parents made on the way I saw the world and think in general. I’m not blaming them. I’m simply saying that whether or not they realized it, they tended to pass down to me (and my sister), the negativism that was rife in their own lives and between my mother and father. That negativism was alive and often fearful to me and so based on what I saw and experienced from a young age, my negative patterns of thinking developed. The adage, “you live what you learn” is very true.
Inconvenient Truths
People need to wake up to what is happening in the world. However, we are up against people who are not saved who believe the lies, people who are saved, but who do not walk closely enough with God to realize they believe lies, and finally, people who may have an inkling of the truth, but out of fear, go along with the narrative simply because it’s easier.
In the Lion’s Den
I’m sure it was scary for Daniel. He didn’t know the outcome ahead of time (as far as we know), until the outcome happened. A scary situation became victory because of God. In truth folks, Christians are in the lion’s den today. The pressure is increasing and in the final analysis, the only thing we can do is trust our Lord who overcomes the lions.While we might not actually be in the lion’s den physically, we know that Satan roams around seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter ). His hatred of us is akin to Nebuchadnezzar’s anger at Shadrach, Meshach and Abegnego and wanted nothing more than to see them burn!
Enemy of the Matrix
Andrew Tate is speaking out with reference to men and applauding the male species, encouraging men to be men. This is problematic to the power elite who want everyone cowed, enslaved and controlled. Real men don’t cower easily. Real men do not take kindly to situations where they lose control. Real men want to protect, help, nurture and mentor. Power Elites want to destroy what it means to be a real man and to destroy the fabric of God’s created society.
Ignoring the Obvious
Unless the Lord intervenes, it clearly means that the world will be thoroughly overcome with evil and bring global society to the door of the coming Tribulation. We can give into the fear of what lies ahead or we can simply see it for what it is – warning signs that inform us – and do what we can to mitigate the effect of what is coming. Huge corporations are currently downsizing by closing stores, laying off employees and taking other cost-cutting measures to save a dollar. If this continues or even speeds up, it will create at the very least a trickle down series of downturns and at worst, possibly an avalanche of downturns, which will leave no one untouched by the fallout. Charles Hughes Smith goes into some detail regarding this problem, including what we may see in the near to far future and it’s not pretty, in his article, The Coming Crisis of Cities: Reinvention or Bankruptcy.
