Preface: God has severely judged America....the world also....particularly Italy....but so far it's mostly in our way of life. In America....that which we are known for....that which is the basis for our constitution....is gone. Government can now do what it wants. It can take our money....and confine us to our homes....if it deems an emergency worthy of such measures. It was designed to work for us....but now it owns us. All of the warnings from some Christians over the past half century on a one-world government....and buying and selling only if the government allows you to....all of this which was ignored at best and ridiculed at worst...is so real now that you can taste it. As for the church in America....we lost our moorings in the gospel of Jesus Christ itself....and in what God required of us as a people set apart....as we fashioned a gospel that fit nicely into our desires....and a patriotism that supported it....and having lost this way of life....we want it back....and will petition God for it....instead of admitting that what we had was not what God demanded of us. We cherish religious liberties...but not what God requires of those liberties.
The Return....But To What
We do not schedule or orchestrate God's revivals. We schedule Woodstocks and Lollapaloozas and Creation Festivals.....but not awakenings. God does that. We pray for mercies.....but praying for a humbling is not the same as praying that our man wins an election. A world day of prayer and repentance is scheduled in our capitol for this September. They are calling it.....The Return. Not coincidentally it will beheld 40 days before the election of the man who this event is really about.
I listened to Jonathan Cahn's very professional video presentation....typical as with haunting music and passing clouds and images of the Washington Monument and Old Glory and steeples topped with crosses. Music and the image sells well....but that's not where the power is. There were words that were true....there always is....in fact it's almost required....but there was also in the background of their vision a giant image of Donald Trump who would surely speak to the throng of believers.
It may very well be that America is in full repentance on these ten days that are scheduled around the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.....but it won't be because of the orchestrated "sacred assembly." It would be because God humbled us in spite of it....through other means. Were this not right at the election....and were it not Donald Trump....a man who prophesies great things....and who has entered the sheepfold....but not by the door....and who is therefore a robber and a thief....who leads evangelicals astray.....the effort could at least claim sincerity.
