Son, the leaders of your country spout empty words and make promises they cannot keep. They think that they control the future, but they will eat the fruit of lies. They trust in their military, believing that this will make them safe. But the time of punishment has come; the day of payment is here. It will be a terrible day when I turn away and leave your country alone and all because they will not listen to Me, or obey Me. I will repay those who oppose me and My children according to what they have done.
So, do not look at life merely from a human point of view. Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. If your wealth increases, don’t make it the center of your life. Remember, if you cultivate wickedness you will harvest a thriving crop of sin.
Son, look over the situation that faces your country, and call My people to come together and pray. Tell them not to be afraid of these leaders who strut about like they are people to be feared. Rather, remember Me and I will fight for you and your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wife, and your home! Now is the time to seek Me so that I can shower My righteousness upon you, and so that you will harvest a crop of wisdom and love.
Lord, I pray to You for help when my heart is overwhelmed. Help me to wait quietly for You. My hope is in You alone. You are my Rock of Salvation and my Fortress where I will not be shaken. My victory and honor come from You alone. You are my Refuge in times of trouble and the Place where no enemy can reach me. I will trust You at all times. You have spoken clearly to me; those things I have heard many times: My future is with You and not with the leaders of my country that oppose You. For even the leaders who love You are afraid to proclaim the truth of what You say to this nation. They have compromised, thinking the corrupt system is salvageable, when it’s not. Oh how I long for YOURS to come Lord and show all the nations what true justice and peace are, and where righteousness and prosperity come from. Come Lord Jesus – Come!
