It Should NOT Be an Industry
By the 1980’s, people had simply lost interest in the prophetic industry as a whole because none of the prophetic highlights panned out. Few, except diehards wanted to hear anymore of “Jesus was coming back soon!” or anyone’s guess about who the Antichrist would be. They turned their thoughts from prophecy and moved on to living; families, jobs, school, marriages, kids, vacations and everything else connected with simply being human. This led to a common belief among Christians and pastors, that the end times events will “just pan out” and take care of itself.

Lying for Gain and Control
Lying is done for a variety of reasons. It may be done to control others, to protect self-interests or for self-preservation or self-promotion. People who lie do so because there is something in it for them. That’s really the bottom line.
Always Trying to Cancel God
The prophet Micah was rebuffed and rebuked for daring to tell the people what God wanted him to tell them, but what the people preferred not to hear. The kings, priests and average Israelite tried their best to “cancel” Micah because of his message. They pushed back by demanding that he stop telling them what he was telling them. In essence, they were ultimately trying to cancel God.
Artificially Constructed
Jesus specifically warned that deceivers would come. Paul echoed that sentiment as did Peter, John and other New Testament writers. It’s a very important subject and one that needs our constant attention, yet we often ignore the possibility that we can be deceived. All of this growing deception will ultimately lead to the entrance and acceptance of the coming man of sin or Antichrist; that one final satanically-infused individual who will lead much of the world astray and that’s what Jesus’ main point to His disciples was all about. That is why He warned them to “take heed” or “be totally alert” and even to watch for it to happen. Be aware that it will happen so be on guard. Are preparations in the works now?
Consider Your Ways!
Christian, is your house in order? Are you focused on God, not the issues of this world? Sure, feel free to notice what is going on but do so through the lens of Scripture. God wants our hearts. He wants us to worship and adore Him, to give Him thanks for everything that comes our way. Are you doing this? If not, please repent of that and get right with God.
Euthanizing Common Sense
Today, the Left sees themselves as virtuous “servants” but in reality they serve the lie (2 Thessalonians 2:11), which ultimately means they serve themselves. They do whatever it takes to make themselves feel good, but in actuality, they are literally walking dead, having terminated common sense via wokeness long ago. This is part of God’s judgment on them as Paul clearly delineates in Romans 1. The saddest part is them thinking they have taken the high road when in fact, they are actually taking the low or wide road that leads only to more lies, heartache, despair and ultimately, eternal separation from God.
Micromanaging Mayberry
There are numerous dictators highlighted in Scripture that evidence so much evil, corruption and a desire to control that they stand out as types for the coming Antichrist. One such individual is Antiochus Epiphanes IV. We actually read about this unnamed historical figure several places in the book of Daniel, but it is far more pronounced in Daniel 11:1-35. Here, Antiochus Ephiphanes didn’t seem to care about money, but gathered it for use as a tool. He’d bribe people with it and got folks to do his bidding. Beyond this, he could flatter the clothes off your back with his words and demeanor. He had a habit of coming alongside of someone, taking them into his confidence and making them feel extremely important and needed. Once he had gained their respect and admiration, he thought nothing of throwing them under the bus.
Revelation 9: 5th and 6th Trumpets
The first woe, also known as the Fifth Trumpet Judgment, occurs when a “star” falls from heaven and is given the key to the bottomless pit (literally, the shaft of the abyss). This angel appears to be one of the angels that never rebelled by following Satan. This angel does God’s will perfectly and voluntarily. After being given the key to the pit, he opens it and out flows tremendous smoke (v. 2). Following this smoke, hordes of what appear to John to be a type of locust flies up out of the pit. The question is are these locusts, demons or something else?
Satanic Tsunami
What the world is moving toward is something created and directed by Satan and using numerous willing globalists to accomplish it, all with God’s permission and for His glory. In order for the final global government to come to fruition (first mentioned in Daniel 2), what exists currently must be destroyed. Without it being destroyed, the current system cannot be replaced. I’m guessing Satan has been given the go-ahead by God, permission to build the final kingdom and eventually introduce Antichrist to the world. I could be wrong, but it just seems to be the case to me. Things are moving very quickly and the level of blindness that keeps much of the world entrapped and enslaved seems to prove it.

Revelation 8: The Seventh Seal
Revelation 8 opens with the Seventh Seal, from which come forth the Seven Trumpet judgments, ordained by God and emanating from His throne. The world is not prepared for these terrible judgments and unwilling to repent.
