“Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:4-6
I am sick for the nation I grew up in, the United States of America. It is broken beyond any remedy I can imagine and all I can do is cry out to the Lord! Lies are given credence while truth is denied, disrespected and discarded. Free and fair elections are made null & void by ongoing organized fraud. The highest offices of law enforcement are corrupt, selectively enforcing laws according to their corrupt agenda. The courts wink at those complicit in defrauding the American people, while declaring whoever stands for the truth guilty. The innocent are imprisoned, but legitimate felons are released to prey on the public. An invasion is welcomed across our southern border, yet citizens’ rights are being stripped away a little more every day. And those in authority who supposedly “represent” us call US anti-American, terrorists & extremists, projecting their evil onto us shamelessly.
I want to vomit when faced with this reality; then I remember what Jesus said. “When you see all these things come to pass, look up, for your redemption draweth nigh.” Luke 21:28 It is devastating to watch the nation I love and cherish, governed of the people, by the people & for the people, being subsumed by globalists who view us as no more than a drain on resources! I mourn now, but Jesus sent me a Comforter. Per His instruction, I received Him, so the nearness of His loving Presence reminds me how I am loved. I am not able to set things right in this world, but He who holds it in his hand declares that my brethren and I who stand by faith in His word will inherit it!
We hunger and thirst after righteousness. The promise is that we shall be filled! What defines righteousness? Only the judgment of God can do it. It establishes His blamelessness, first among his own household, then to the world at large. Judgment begins in the house of God, then goes on to fill the earth with the knowledge of the Lord. A counterfeit church will be exposed by it, and the earth will experience tribulation as all the rebellious stand defiant against His call to repent and be saved. They are engineering their own demise. They cannot win, because “the earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.” I Corinthians 10:26
