Americans Will Suffer Tribulation
Jonah 1:1-2, “Now the word of the LORD came
unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying. Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it;
for their wickedness is come up before me.”
There are many Christians and
followers of Jesus the Christ who truly believe that all the mayhem and
Christian prosecution happening in the majority of every other country will not
come to America.
Sadly, there is a great deal of loftiness with many Americans. As an American I
too had this characteristics and I believe it’s a characteristic that just
comes from being an American.
I have been guilty of watching
the news regarding famine, disease and genocides in other countries and saying,
“Glad I’m not living over there,” and that was as far as the concern went. Of
course I never wished bad events on anyone and I honestly believe the majority
of Americans want the best for everyone; however, if it’s not in our
backyard—literally, it’s—somewhere over there and we move on. Again, that type of
thinking just comes from being an American.
We have been the super power of
all nations. America
is the country where others have flocked in order to obtain the American Dream
and make a better for their families. I remember growing up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan
where the majority of dads either worked for GM, Chrysler or Ford…and life was
good!
Growing up the only things most
children in the area had to concern themselves with was getting the left over
food out of their lunch box, what trail will we take to go bike riding, what
will we wear to Bob-o-lo Island (amusement park), what new dolls or doll house
can we talk mom or dad into buying for us, and the main thing we had to concern
ourselves with was…being in the house before the street lights came on—or else!
Living in Florida you get the opportunity of meeting
people with different ethnicities, cultures and traditions. It was through the
many years of living here, moving from the North to the South, where I could
really appreciate the different cultures and ethnicities while humbling my
beliefs on other cultures and ethnicities. When you grow up in the North a
great number of us have this notion that we’re better than those who grew up in
the South. This notion of having better education, skills, mannerisms and just
overall status simply comes from being an American.
America has gotten to a point where
everyone is better and knows more than the next person. Where truth sounds more
like a fable and fables sound more like truth. II Timothy 4:3, “For the time will come when they will not endure sound
doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers,
having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and
shall be turned unto fables.”
As humans we enjoy messages that
sound good and tickle our ears and make us cheerful and happy. Any messages
that make us look at ourselves or the bigger picture of an issue as humans we
will turn away from hearing messages as such. There’s a reason why Jesus stressed
repentance, for the kingdom is at hand. Oftentimes, we enjoy messages or
teachings but sometimes there’s a part of us that knows deep down—hmm,
something is wrong with this teaching but as humans we ignore it and wish it
away because it feels good to the ears!
A great many has become cold
hearted, insincere, plainly out for themselves, a lover of themselves and
filled with greed and lusts…and this is the world that we live in. With all
this technology and the luxury of everything being at your fingertips has gone
way over the top.
Times have drastically changed
within a few short years. There was time when you could just turn the
television set on; now you have to pay to watch local television. We text more
than talk and we email more than physically writing to our loved ones. When we
think about it, what we do on a daily basis is no different than what a robot
could do if designed and trained.
Honestly, with all the
technology, there is really no need to think
or use common sense the computer or electronic device will do it all. We
don’t have to remember our relatives or friends’ phone number for it’s
programmed in our cell phone. We don’t have to map out our travel route; the
GPS will do it all for us.
There was a time when the
television networks went off air at midnight;
now we can watch television all day and throughout the night. There was a time
when people were literally keeping up with the Jones’ and now they’re literally
keeping up with the Kardashians! The United States has become a place where
you’re forced to upgrade what you have every couple of years. We’ve become
dependant on our—stuff.
America has become very relaxed and
lofty and will soon have to be humbled.
I hear and see the comments of my fellow Americans stating nothing will ever
happen to America
it can’t we’re too strong. I have even seen and heard comments of people
saying, “ISIS won’t come here! Their not that
bold!” I usually never comment on those types
of statements sometimes or I simply reply with, ‘Think again’ as I think about
one of leader’s messages to Americans:
“I say to America, that the Islamic State has
been established, and with god’s permission, it will not stop. You cowards, if
you are real men, we are here on the ground. Don’t send your drones, send your
soldiers whom we have humiliated in Iraq. And with God’s permission we
will humiliate them everywhere. And God willing, we will raise our {ISIS} flag in the White House/”
According to the report on CNN
this is highly unlikely that they will raise their flag at the White House and
the United States
officials are not looking at the possibility of anything happening beyond Iraq. Does this
sound familiar?! Revelation 13:4, “…Who
is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” I’ll say it
again, this type of attitude displayed by our leaders just come from being an
American. Most people don’t believe or consider the idea that something could
happen in America.
But we know that history repeats itself—with different characters and different
settings.
We have to remember America, Mystery Babylon, (Revelation 17:16-17)
is overthrown and destroyed by God’s enemies forever (Jeremiah 51:26). At some point in time this will happen. With each
generation that passes we get further and further away from God and closer to
the coming of Jesus.
Hosea 4:1-2, “…because there is no truth,
nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. Bu swearing, and lying, and
killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood
toucheth blood. Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth
therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of
heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.”
We can see Bible prophecy
unfolding right before our eyes—if your eyes are open. We are so close to the
birthing of a new age. We are no longer in birth pains but now it’s time for
the actual birth. As believers in the
Word of God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob we need to—get ready! We have
an appointment with the Most High God.
WHY AMERICA
Matthew
12:39, “…An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there
shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:”
In the Book of Jonah we read that
Jonah was to arise and go warn the people of Nineveh of their wickedness and idol worship.
Thus revealing to them that their sins went up before God and God was planning
to destroy them and have their city
overthrown unless they repented and turned from their wicked ways. And this
type of destruction is not new or out of character for the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob. When we hear about the wickedness of cities in the Bible and
God’s plans for their wickedness, which always is some type of destruction, I
can’t understand why it’s so hard to believe that one day God will judge America!
All the wickedness that America does in
the sight of God will one day be judged and the people will be humbled. There
will be much weeping and mourning under the sun when that day comes.
I understand that a great many
Americans love this country and will fight for this country to their demise. As
an American I understand but a great majority of Americans have forgotten all
of the wickedness, bloodshed, and malicious acts that have been done by our
leaders, politicians, law enforcement and the citizens as well.
So one can’t possibly believe
that our heavenly Father will accept sex trafficking. Once can’t possibly
believe that God understands and accepts the 3,000 abortions per week. We definitely
can’t believe that God is happy with a homosexual pastor leading His flock. Perhaps
there are some that do believe God is happy with the ways of America…I don’t
know.
Isaiah 26:11, “LORD, when thy hand is lifted
up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the
people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.”
A person can’t honestly believe
that God has forgotten all about slavery and the innocent murders and lynching
of young children, women and men. A person can’t truly believe God has forgotten
about the Native Americans that were slaughtered supposedly in the name of God while many Americans stood by and--watched. A lot of people don’t realize that
although there are/were a great many Native Americans who follow different
paths, a great number of them were followers of the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob but their style of worship was not considered—correct.
Deuteronomy 32:43, “Rejoice, O ye nations,
with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render
vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land and to his
people.”
God has not forgotten about all
the innocent lives that were taken on American soil. Hosea
7:2, “And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their
wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my
face.”
We can’t possibly believe that
the Father of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob willingly accepts the marriages of two
men or two women unified in the house of God! One can’t possibly believe that
God will accept and turn a blind eye to another Sodom and Gomorrah way of life!
In God We Trust is displayed on currency which the lack thereof and
the more thereof has led to the deaths and trafficking of many. And many of my
fellow Americans boldly yell, “God Bless
America!” Really! No Christian would actually have the audacity to believe that
the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob would bless this nation. Are we reading
about the same God? The God that put an end to all flesh with a flood; the same
God that rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah
with brimstone and fire; the same God that killed Israelite
men, women and children in the
wilderness…surely anyone who boldly states God Bless America is referring to another
God!
Jeremiah 51:9, “We would have healed Babylon, but she is not
healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her
judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.”
There are more examples that I
could give proving why judgment has to come to America but if you’ve been living
in America
your entire life there are plenty of examples you can offer as well. A person
can certainly pretend that none of these things happened and are still
happening today but just because a person pretends and wishes past and current
events away doesn’t mean they never existed and it certainly does not mean that
it does not exist today.
Right now America is a nation divided and we all know that
anything divided can’t stand. A family divided can’t stand and a nation divided
can’t stand and will surely fall. Right now our leaders are intentionally
pushing division with race relations; we are divided in the political arena; we
are divided by social status and class; we are divided even in our churches where division should not have a home.
Religion and race has been America’s biggest
divisions. In the name of God the KKK, along with law enforcement and other
citizens killed many Blacks, Native Americans, Jews, and other non-Whites—in
the name of God and purity on American soil.
And now America will fall in the name of Allah; and it will be overthrown by a different race than our leaders; and it will be
destroyed by our heavenly Father’s enemies according to His Will.
The angels and saints in heaven
and people standing afar off rejoice at America’s fall (Revelation 18:10, 21). There’s something to be
said about. What could a nation do that would make the angels, prophets, and
apostles in heaven rejoice at her
fall?!
Revelation 18:20, “Rejoice over her, thou
heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.”
That’s a hard message to take in
and it certainly is not a message to tickle the ears truth never is. As I
stated prior just because we sweep events under the rug it doesn’t mean that
event has vanished for one day that rug will be moved and the event will
no longer be hidden.
GET READY
As believers in Jesus and the
Word of God we don’t know exactly what will happen on each given day of God’s
judgment in America.
But we do know that
God’s judgment is coming. When God’s judgment comes on the land many will not
believe it is from God and will say, “…Our
hand is high, and the LORD hath not done all this.” Deuteronomy 32:27. However,
the faithful believers because we are awake and discerning the signs of the times
will know exactly what is happening and consider our latter end. Now is the
time to repent, pray and fast.
We know we must still occupy
until our Messiah returns. Spreading the Word, (not bombarding our message on
others), and doing our part as believers in Jesus by the means and gifts that
the heavenly Father has provided you with. And occupying doesn’t always mean
going door to door, street preaching, writing articles, or having a ministry.
There are many prayer warriors within the Christian community and some pray
many hours throughout the day.
I strongly believe when certain
storms are expected to hit an area and all of a sudden it turns without warning
and then goes back into the ocean. I believe that was the hand of God
redirecting the storm, answering the prayers of His children. Those prayer
warriors who may or may not be members of a church but they fervently stay in
prayer.
