Go up into Gilead, and take balm, O virgin, the daughter of Egypt: in vain shalt thou use many medicines; for thou shalt not be cured.

-Jeramiah 46:11

Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?

This Week's News

In this week’s news, we have the possibility of a nuclear attack dominating the headlines. The public’s reaction to this is painfully predictable. People are frenzied and scrambling about, the same way as when they were told killer particles were released from a Chinese lab.

I’m always amazed by the public relations campaigns that precede the dropping of bombs. Why would someone launching an attack advertise it ahead of time, except to get people to react in a certain way?

Manipulation is the sole function of today’s media and it works perfectly on a populace that’s disconnected from the Creator.

As we lose our understanding of the Word of God and outright reject it in some cases, we begin to lose our trust in the Lord’s provisions for us. Instead, we obsess over the possibility of our own deaths (which are imminent by the way) and turn to mortals for salvation.

God says:

I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye. Be ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding: whose mouth must be held in with bit and bridle, lest they come near unto thee.

-Psalm 32:8-9

This is not to discount the possibility of a nuclear attack or to say that we should not prepare for disasters, but we should always be turning our focus Godward and away from the schizophrenic media. God alone will instruct us and show us the path in this life.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

-II Timothy 1:7

Realize that you are no more at risk of dying today than any other day. This applies to the days of the staged pandemic as well. There is nothing to fear except your own soul being damned to hell for sin.

When it’s your time, God will take you, and when that time comes, the best-case scenario for you is a saved and washed soul.

Be led by the the bit and bridle of tyrants or put your faith in Jesus Christ.

Who Can Tell if God Will Turn and Repent?

Here is what “national salvation” looks like according to the Bible:

[7]] And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water: [8] But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands. [9] Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?

[10] And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.” Jonah 3

This is what America needs – true repentance and a turn away from the sin and wickedness that we have normalized in our society. Ninevah avoids becoming the next Sodom and Gomorroah (for a time) by hearing the sober words of Jonah. But what do our pastors tell us? That God has a wonderful plan for our lives, that Jesus is a long-haired hippy who wants to have a relationship with US, and that we should live our best “purpose-driven life” NOW.

Everyone knows John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

But what about John 3:18? “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

We need to be sober-minded about who God is. “The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.” Nahum 1:7. Amen.

But it’s the immediate next verse that will get people donning the sackcloth:

“But with an overrunning flood he will make an utter end of the place thereof, and darkness shall pursue his enemies.” Nahum 1:8

America needs some tough love. We have an opportunity to repent of our sins, pray for revival, intercede before God for the sins of our neighbors and country, and vote for principled candidates in the coming primaries and midterms. Who knows if God will turn away his wrath? If not, expect darkness to pursue us from now until America is utterly consumed.

Selah.
