God’s instructions are precise.  His guidelines for mankind’s welfare are determined according to the righteousness and holiness of God.   The divine decree is not without warning.  God very clearly states the case for men and women to live according to the decrees of the living God.

There is a verse that stands like a brilliant lighthouse visible throughout the whole world, and this is it:

Proverbs 14:34 “Righteousness exalts a nation, BUT SIN IS A DISGRACE TO ANY PEOPLE.”  Some know this better in the KJV translation – Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”

That verse is not in isolation, for the two previous verses are these: Proverbs 14:32-33 “The wicked is THRUST DOWN BY HIS WRONGDOING, but the righteous has A REFUGE WHEN HE DIES.  Wisdom rests in the heart of one who has understanding, but in the bosom of fools it is made known.”

The contrast is made.  The wicked will come undone by his wickedness, but the child of God has his eternal refuge in the Lord.  Verse 33 is so important.  There is one who has understanding, and there is one who is nothing more than a fool.

This introduction leads us to the American Mid-term elections.

THE UNITED STATES ELECTION 2026

Before you read this, let me make it clear that I am expressing my thoughts as a person who is not American, nor do I reside in the United States.  Does that give me a more impartial view?  I do not know.  Am I correct?  Maybe; maybe not.

THE AMERICAN ELECTIONS

I have been saying and writing for a while that this mid-term election would see Democrats in power.  Part of my reason is based on the way it has played out in my own nation.  And not only here, but throughout the world, there is a rush to what is called the left of politics.  Why is that?

The left ranges from socialism to communism.  In fact, all of those flavors are under the umbrella of socialism, and all socialism is communism depending on the degree.  The United States has made its choice, and it is no surprise.  Where there is no vision, the people perish, and visionless people vote for their own destruction.

In the introduction, we looked at wisdom and fools.  Wisdom is based on knowledge, and knowledge from God leads to His instruction and to His righteousness.  I find it inconceivable that a true Christian could ever vote for a Democrat in the USA or for the Labor Party in Britain and Australia.  Those Marxists/socialists have as policy, full promotion of homosexuality in legislation; have abortion up until the day of birth (at least in Australia); have a policy to abolish religion; and have a seething hatred for Israel and the Jews.

For what it is worth as an outsider, I don’t think this result of a landslide Democratic victory had anything, or very little, to do with President Trump personally.  The factors are being determined by the prince of this world.  I think Satan, who is not omnipresent, has based a lot of activity in Iran, as it is the powerhouse that drives the world down.  That is strategic for his attack on Jews.

Energy prices affect everything, and Americans are very particular about their fuel prices.  For too many years, there has been a propaganda of false materialism in many nations, but more so in the USA, and when the bubble bursts, people get resentful and violent.  My Government has all sorts of taxes on fuel, and the higher the world price goes, the higher the tax take of the greedy and irresponsible Government.  They rub their hands together in glee.

Diesel right now is $11.35 for us (for an American gallon).  It has hugely affected our cost of living, but the Government has spent many hundreds of billions in putting windmills all over the place even though Australia has enormous supplies of coal, gas and uranium, among the greatest resources on Earth, but we can’t use it, for the Government has placed it off limits for windmills!   It has swallowed the green agenda hook, line and sinker.

I can tell you now, the United States will never recover from this election.  It is going to usher in some terrible things in policy and backwardness.  The nation is going the same way as what mine has done.  I see the United States following that.  Inflation here is out of control.  Every form of tax is thrust upon us.  Decency is squashed, and the promotion of all sorts of deviant policies comes from those who fit the Romans 1 mold.

The people of the United States, detached from God, have voted for their own downfall, and that is not trying to be dramatic.  I have listened to the elected Democrats, and it is horrifying what they want to do.

In my nation, greed is paramount.  It costs me several hundred dollars to get an electrician to come and fix something.  It is the same with plumbers.  This year, my home insurance for a simple, average home is one thousand dollars every three months with a good percentage of that being Government tax.

Grocery prices have doubled in a lot of cases in the past two years.  It costs me just over $150 to fill an average 4-cylinder car with fuel.

Why am I telling you this?  We are under socialism, the Federal Government being Marxist, just like your Democrats.  You will follow the same way, you people in the United States.

It is a worldwide trend.  That is why I mentioned Iran earlier.  We are now influenced by globalism because the world is being wrapped in control mechanisms, and climate change is a major contributing factor for this.  God gives all nations their chance.  I truly believe that in these past two years the United States pulled back on the evils that were starting to overtake the nation, but the people in blindness did not like it.  Now the rush into further evil will take over.

God’s children must not be alarmed.  This is to be expected according the 2 Timothy 3:1-5.  The concepts in Romans 1 are operating, and the “God gave them over” is why nations have lost control and are being swept away in a tide each can’t control.  Man now controls his deep spiritual blindness.  Take a look at Europe and even my nation.  This is the way it will be.

When the Rapture happens, it will create such a vacuum that chaos will ensue.  We are already seeing that chaos in many nations.  The United States had it under Biden, and it will return even worse.  If the Lord tarries, the USA will have a Democrat President in two years, and he will be more evil than any who went before.  Newsome wants the position, but I doubt he will get that.

Am I being dramatic or audacious in saying that?  No, I am not.  2 Timothy 3:13 “Evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.”  What is bad today will be worse tomorrow.  We are in the last days.

The Antichrist is not going to step into a “good and decent” world.  He will fit nicely into the environment because people are already wicked and well down the path of absolute godlessness.   I see such a hardening where I am, and I know the people are darker and darker in their behavior and attitudes.

The United States has a residue of godliness because of the true children of God, and this will form a buffer for you for a time, but it won’t last.  The churches are becoming liberal and so way out, so the salt of the Christians will soon get neutralized.  I am astounded when I study the word of faith movement (prosperity teaching), and I have set about to do that because it is now a driving force in the religious life of many nations.  It is a distortion and is so false.  For any who belong to one of those churches, please examine what your church does – and go to Justin Peters on YouTube and listen to him.

Christians need to be sincere about their faith.  The time for play acting and lip service must end.  You are in a minority.  There are more Christians in China than in the USA.  They live under threat of persecution, but their faith in the main is genuine.  It needs to be.  We are too entangled in materialism and personal image and status.  Does God have to strip these away from us so that we see more clearly and are single-minded?  I think so.  Repressive governments will do that, so be prepared.

Many of us who have studied the prophetic scriptures for decades (68 years for me) know that God allows things to get really bad before His intervention.  Think of the times of Noah

Genesis 6:12 “and God looked on the earth, and behold, it was corrupt, for ALL FLESH HAD CORRUPTED THEIR WAY upon the earth.”

Genesis 6:5 “Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth and that EVERY INTENT OF THE THOUGHTS OF HIS HEART WAS ONLY EVIL CONTINUALLY.”

And the situation in Judah – Isaiah 1:5-6 “Where will you be stricken again as you continue in your rebellion?  The whole HEAD is sick and the whole HEART is faint.  From the sole of the FOOT even to the HEAD there is nothing sound in it, only bruises, welts, and raw wounds, not pressed out or bandaged, nor softened with oil.”

HEAD = all the thinking processes

HEART = the essence of man (the whole makeup)

FOOT = walking and progression – what is being achieved.

All has been corrupted, and increasingly so.

I continue to wonder about one verse relating to the last days – 2 Timothy 3:1 “Realize this, that in the last days DIFFICULT TIMES will come.”  Some of you will know this as “perilous times.”  Most translations use the word “difficult,” and a few use “terrible.”  Strong’s says this: “Perhaps from chalao through the idea of reducing the strength; difficult, i.e. Dangerous, or furious.”  I believe the word means times of hardship, even “great hardship.  What I wonder about is “how difficult is difficult going to become before the Lord returns?”

I will always say the Rapture is close, imminent, and the key to prophecy is Israel, and in the Middle East, all is ready, but I do wonder, “how long?”  How difficult is difficult?  To what degree must difficulty mature until it is REALLY times of hardship (great hardship)?  I have no answer for that.

WHAT WAS TRUMP’S LEGACY?  I THINK THERE ARE TWO THAT I WOULD HIGHLIGHT

[1].  I believe Donald Trump stopped the rush to the precipice for two years.  In that time, it gave Christians a voice to declare the decision at the crossroads.  To continue in evil would lead to destruction.  To repent would see God look favorably on the United States.  We know that nation has not repented but has increased its wickedness that has spread through the world.

Islam calls America “The Great Satan” (especially in Iran), and in some regards they are right, but I would never line up with Islam.  Immorality, all manner of WOKE, greed of monopolies, advancing AI, full greed of Tech Companies, and exorbitant profits are just a few problems exported to the world from the USA.  Islam sees that, but has its own satanic evils.  It can’t speak.  It must be silent before God.  It is a murderous religion.

The rush to the precipice will resume, and it will not stop.  The last days mean the last days, and there is no turning them back.  I do believe America has had its last chance, but my own nation is beyond its last chance.  The United States assessed its position and has decided against God.

[2].  The second legacy of Donald Trump cannot be fully assessed yet.  He sided with Israel for its immediate protection from Iran’s nuclear weapons, and that was correct.  The Democrats hate Israel.  My government hates Israel.  The Australian media hates Israel.  The left-wing media in Australia, the socialist Marxists, have not stopped gloating over the Democrat victory.  Is that surprising?  No, it is not, because the world will run after the beast, the man of sin.  Revelation 13:3 “I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed and the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast.” Men will honor wickedness.

I reviewed a documentary of 6 of the newly elected Democrats, radical left and progressive socialists.  It is horrendous what they stand for, and this will be the path now for the USA.  Time won’t permit a summary of these, but just one will do.  Here it is:

[[ Dalia Lissa Avila Chevalier from New York, the organizer for the wicked Mamdani, Mayor of New York.  Her agenda will be to abolish ICE and prisons.  She attended a pro-Palestinian demonstration one day after the Hamas massacre of October 2023, rejoicing over the attack on Israel.  One comment she made was, I forgot to get napkins, so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me.” ]]

I think the two hotbeds of iniquity and God-hate in the United States are New York and California, specifically Los Angeles.  Are you surprised that God’s wrath is about to be unleashed in the Tribulation for the stored-up wickedness?

Anyone who supports Hamas in its vile killing and torture of 1300 people, where pregnant women even were killed, is seared with Satan’s venom.  The hate of Satan for Israel, God’s earthly people, is intense and his own adherents all over the world hate Israel.  Chevalier is demon possessed or demon controlled/influenced because no one can gloat over that shameless atrocity against Jews and not be in Satan’s camp.  That woman is cursed by God as are all Democrats who oppose Israel, and the Labor Parties of Britain and Australia.  Here it is:

Genesis 12:2-3 and I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, and so you shall be a blessing.  I will bless those who bless you, and THE ONE WHO CURSES YOU I WILL CURSE.  In you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”

The USA will now be solidly against Israel as it was under Biden and Obama, two evil men, and will join with nearly all nations of the world today as enemies of Israel.  People and nations hate Israel and the Jews.  It is awful in my nation.  Why do they hate the Jews?  Well, I think most of them don’t really know themselves, but they do hate Israel.  We know why.  It is demonic, and the demonic influence in men’s minds will turn them against the truth and against God’s earthly, and God’s heavenly people, even if they know not why.

Let me share something here.  I have met only a few Republicans and Democrats, as I do not live in the United States.  This is going to be a very subjective statement, but the Republicans I have met are decent and accepting, but the Democrats were fierce and overbearing.

THE RED HORSE

As you ought to know, the red horse, the second seal of Revelation 6, means wars and rumors of wars because peace is taken from the earth.  That is right, “is taken” or removed.  I have frequently said that this horse will see international wars and national, civil wars.  I still remember the riots and chaos of the Black Lives rampage.  Around 90% of the black people in the USA vote Democrat, and this is a huge divide in the country.  Once the lid is taken off and peace is removed, the nation is in great trouble.  Christians, though, will not be here for that, because we believe in the Rapture.

This will happen all over the world.  Revelation 6:3-4  “When He broke the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, ‘Come,’ and another, a red horse, went out, and to him who sat on it, it was granted TO TAKE PEACE FROM THE EARTH, and that men SHOULD SLAY ONE ANOTHER, and a great sword was given to him.”

Do not consider me in an offensive manner, but as an outsider, I think this might happen racially in the USA. And if that is so, it will be the legacy of slavery.  God’s account of sins can be very long.  It was hundreds of years before action was taken against Moab.

I hope what I said does not happen, but I have that confirmation through the scriptures.  Look at the world.

Have you given any thought as to why the world is a state of great tension – look at Britain and France and Spain.  There are several reasons for this existing.  Here are some:

[1.]  Men’s hearts and lives themselves are so corrupted that truth and error are not discerned.  Jeremiah 17:9 “The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick.  Who can understand it?”

[2.]  Satan’s time is short, and the demonic world is frantically, actively promoting confusion, violence, hardship, cohesion of all nations in wickedness, and globalism allied to socialism and Marxism.

[3.]  Nearly all the world, and especially so in the Western world, has thrown God out of schools, Parliament, literature, music, Easter, Christmas, and so much more.  Godlessness and paganism rule.  God says, “Go your own way,” and this is what we see.  Romans 1:22-24 “Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures.  Therefore GOD GAVE THEM OVER in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, that their bodies might be dishonoured among them.”

Final word to Christians.  Those who study the Bible know what is happening.  The time is short.  Be into God’s word and do not forget this verse that has its setting in the Tribulation, but we can apply it to ourselves as we wait for the Lord coming to remove His Church.

Luke 21:28 “And when these things begin to come to pass, then LOOK UP, AND LIFT UP YOUR HEADS; for your redemption draweth nigh” (KJV).

Luke 21:28 “When these things begin to take place, straighten up and lift up your heads because YOUR REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR.”

The Lord bless and keep all His true saints.

“These are the times that try men’s souls.” –Thomas Paine

As the world becomes increasingly unhinged, dark, and lawless, just remember that for most of our short history on this planet, that has been the norm.

The United States, born out of a righteous anger against injustice, sought reprieve through petition. But when ignored, censored, and abused, it left no other option than revolution. France would undergo similar circumstances years later, but with a drastically different result.

Why was the American experiment so successful when others weren’t?

The primary factor was the wisdom nested in the founder’s core understanding of where freedom truly comes from. Instead of placing the ultimate authority with human government, the founders, instead, pointed to God as the ultimate arbiter of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. They rightfully realized the fallen condition of man, and man’s propensity to abuse power once in power.

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” –President John Adams

Behind the scenes, and moving unseen, dark spiritual forces were surprised at this turn of events. Therefore, the plot was hatched that the United States would have to be throttled in its cradle to prevent it from becoming a sanctuary and a beacon of light for a world shrouded in darkness.

It’s no wonder that since our founding, the United States has been consistently attacked, subverted, and corrupted. And all this from the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, to the Civil War.

Europe had long hoped that the US would collapse and fracture so they could come back in and plunder its wealth and people as they’d done in so many other parts of the world under the banner of colonialism.

They didn’t care how we collapsed, only that we did.

But God.

When external threats proved unfruitful, Satan turned to his old tactics of corrupting from within. This had worked marvelously over the millennia with Christendom. After three centuries of merciless persecution by pagan Rome, Christianity only spread faster and farther.

Thus, it has been the satanic agenda for the better part of 180 years to buckle the pillars of our once great nation by destroying our common faith, the family unit, and confusing mankind with all manner of perverse ideologies and religions.

The parable of the mustard tree talks about a naturally small tree that grew insanely large, in which all manner of birds came and nested in its branches. In the context of all the parables in Matthew 13, the birds were viewed in a negative light (see the parable of the Sower and the Soil). The point being conveyed by Jesus here was that instead of the great commission given to the Church to take the gospel unto all the world, the world came into the Church.

Comparably, the United States grew insanely large and became a sanctuary for all beliefs and peoples. However, instead of immigrants assimilating together under a common identity and purpose, we are fracturing into countless tribal enclaves divided by religion, culture, identity, and allegiances. This division has been greatly accelerated and exacerbated by the infusion of false religions, progressive socialism, and postmodernism.

Even though it took time, the poisoned fruits are now fully ripe, and we are in the season of sifting. The truth of the matter is that we are so divided now, there is simply no putting this humpty-dumpty back together again. Thus, we are again at the precipice of another major turning point in our nation’s history. Our fourth, as it were.

This is not accidental; it is by design.

The Bible tells us who presently holds sway over this broken-down kingdom we are living in Luke 4:5-6, Ephesians 2:2, 1 John 5:19).

Satan intends to drive men to the point of desperation that they would willingly abandon their hope in Christ, His institutions for family, government, and salvation, and cry out for a modicum of peace and safety (1 Thess. 5:1-4).

But peace and safety can only be found in one Person; that is Jesus Christ (John 14:6, 27-29).

Admittedly, I was despairing until the rainbow reminded me of the promise God gave to Noah (Genesis 9).

And as we near the two-thousandth anniversary of our Lord’s death, burial, and resurrection, we should not despair in our present political situation but take comfort in the promise He gave us.

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also” (John 14:1-3).
