Hello, John and Doves,

 

The LORD is allowing things to happen as they naturally will, in order to make

abundantly plain that democracy cannot solve all the problems it encounters.

 

Democracy cannot even solve the problem of spiritual wickedness in high places

to save its soul.

 

But remember,

    "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance."  2 Peter 3:9

 

The world is looking to 2012 for some kind of happy New Age to begin.

 

Instead, we read in Psalm 112:

5    A good man deals graciously and lends; He will guide his affairs with discretion.

6    Surely he will never be shaken; The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.

7    He will not be afraid of evil tidings; His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

8    His heart is established; He will not be afraid, Until he sees his desire upon his enemies.

9    He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever;

        His horn will be exalted with honor.

10  The wicked will see it and be grieved; He will gnash his teeth and melt away;              The desire of the wicked shall perish.     Psalm 112:5-10   Hang in there.  God is not finished with His plans yet. And remember, too, God has no plan B.  For it is written:     "So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void,         But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."

Isaiah 55:11 This is how our Lord could say, "Tetelestai."  It is finished, just as requested--no caveats, no excuses.

 

In HaShem,

Mike C.
