HOW THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS WON THE BATTLE OF IMMORALITY IN AMERICA...

here is a difference between a war and a battle. Many battles are fought in a war. In World War II for instance battles were fought in different locations from Iwo Jima in Japan to Omaha beach in France. In America's civil war, battles were fought in Trenton, in North Carolina, in Delaware etc.

Spiritually we are engaged in battles, in a war that is already won. On the cross, Jesus not only reconciled us to God, but He defeated the kingdom of darkness, took the sting of death away, however, judgment based on that defeat was deferred till after the millennia. Those who are believers in the world who are citizens of the kingdom of heaven have been given tools and weapons needed to fight spiritual battles, until the Satan, demons and unrepentant humans are judged to hell.

Although kingdom citizens, God allows us to engage in these battles, for so many reasons. Through the lives of patriarchs and saints in the bible, we read of many reasons God let's us go through battles. We know for instance, that battle ready saints like Joseph and David do well when executing their purpose. James the apostle, wrote that battles increase our faith, develops our perseverance and help our maturity (spiritually and emotionally).

The kingdom of darkness (satan, demons and human agents) know categorically that they cannot touch a true believer, but from time to time God allows test, or sometimes God uses the enemy to carry out judgment in unrepentant situation, such was the case of Jews in Babylon for 70 years.

America's foundation was undeniably based on Judeo-Christian values and principles. Every document that established this nation made reference to Providence [God], as much as the founders did not want a state religion they realized the importance of values gotten only through faith in Christ (many of them voiced that opinion). Over the years the enemy sought to attack Christianity, and the best attack seem to be in ways that seems right to man particularly what is natural to our sin nature.

Liberalism (however you define it) is an ideology that puts humans on the throne of their lives, not God. As this ideology has permeated America (it has been sold well). It changed our thinking, replacing God with Self (and government) in our hearts. The academics were the first place to buy into and sell this crazy ideology (from the pit of hell), then media and entertainment, then religious institutions joined in with liberal theology and it even gained ground in traditional theology with SELF gospel which distracted true believers. The economic and political class finally joined the bandwagon, and we are now where we are. Self-interest (economic, skin color, politics, etc.) has clouded us from Godly principles.

The so called body of Christ is now divided and any house divided against itself cannot stand. We have been divided based on the wrong theology, basically wrong interpretation. Even amongst traditional theology, our emphasis have shifted from Christ and His Kingdom to the others things that will be added, so we lack power because all our gains are man-made, hence the lack of contentment. We forget this is about Souls - going to hell or heaven and our Father in heaven getting the Glory.

Knowing that Christ already won the War and the battles are left to us..., and He has given us a way out when we've been distracted as we have been (His Word, His Name and His Spirit). We must first repent and turn from our wicked ways, then we ask Him to heal our land. His Blood has already been shed for our Redemption.

Part of the healing is pointing out evil or wrong, whether it is a person or a theology that soothes our sinful nature - be ready for persecution from those who follow man, not God. Part of the healing of the land is teaching God�s Truth, not our truth - the church must stop entertaining to saying Truth even if it hurts. In Holiness of heart, we must now invite God back to our land to have His way - like the king of Nineveh did but not the leaders of the twin cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

He/She who has hears, let them listen to what the Spirit is saying to His church (the remnants). Don�t expect revival in America, if it is not starting in your home.

Remain blessed
