God is intervening in the affairs of this world. The hearts and minds of people are becoming enlightened with truth and wisdom by the Spirit of God to the ways of life and peace.
Many very bad decisions have been made in the governance of nations, tribes, families, and individuals. The gross errors have brought and are bringing severe tribulation to the earth and all that is on it.
God is sending strong correction and renewal to Planet Earth.
The fresh reality of the function and substance of true governance under God is being revealed in this season. Even as the old systems of governance are bitterly failing and tribulation is wreaking havoc on earth, the wisdom of a godly relationship of Spirit and natural governance is being birthed.
GOD’S GOVERNANCE OF LOVE
God’s governance is a government of LOVE flowing by the Holy Spirit into and through human beings to bring heaven’s order to the natural world. God’s government is the Kingdom of God that is Christ in His people that flows out to govern all aspects of life in this world. The kingdom of God incorporates the love, power, and wisdom of God to govern Planet Earth.
God’s governance of love can never be completely separated from or removed from the world. God loves the world and always is affecting it in some way. If not in the forefront of governance then behind the scenes working all things together for good to those who love Him and are called according to His purposes. (Romans 8:28).
Many different forms of natural government can work for the good of mankind and the systems of the planet. The form is not nearly as important as the Spirit or spirits that work in and with the person or the people who are the governing body.
God’s design for created earth and mankind is that Spirit God abides in and with mankind and flows the governance of Spirit God’s heavenly wisdom and order to Planet Earth. The family, tribe, or nation prospers and increases when its government is in intimate relationship with Spirit God Almighty; the fruits of righteousness, peace, and Joy are prevalent in and among the people. (Psalm 33:12) (Malachi 3:12) (Romans 14:17).
THE FALSE CONCEPT OF SECULAR GOVERNMENT
One of the worst and most devastating blunders that mankind has made is the attempt to separate Spirit governance from natural governments.
In reality, it is completely impossible to separate spiritual governance from natural governance. If Spirit God does not rule in people, another spirit or spirits will guide their minds and hearts. There is never a spiritual vacuum or neutral spirit affecting and guiding the minds and hearts of the people. Where there is no light darkness prevails. When the light comes the darkness is driven out.
Mankind is designed to be spiritually led and will be led by one spiritual inanity or another. There is NO NEUTRAL spirit. To not be aligned with Spirit God is to be aligned with an anti-God spirit or spirits. Those who are not for God are against God and His ways.
The result of governance that is not properly connected to and emanating from Spirit God is governance led by Satan and his evil spirits of darkness. The great deceiver poses as an angel of light, gradually but steadily implanting vile darkness into the minds and hearts of the people. As a roaring lion he goes about seeking to devour any who are not connected into Spirit God through Christ Jesus by His Holy Spirit. (2 Corinthians 11:14) (1 Peter 5:8).
That being said, it is also true that God can use the actions of even those aligned with other spirits to His advantage for good. What the enemy means for evil, God will use for good in the final outcome of situations. One of the results of suffering under evil governance is that people seek freedom from the oppression and turn toward the loving governance of God. (Romans 8:28).
THE SPIRIT KINGDOM GOVERNANCE OF GOD
The Spirit kingdom governance of God can work through most any form of natural government structure, if the governing people are led by Spirit God internally. The kingdom of God is within and flows through His people to the world.
A democratic form of government can only prosper in a nation of godly people in whom Spirit God abides. A natural kingdom form of a government can bring forth the kingdom of God if the king is led by Spirit God. The same is true for parliaments, prime ministers, or tribal chiefs or heads of families.
THE CURRENT TRANSFORMATION TOWARD THE GOVERNANCE OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD ON EARTH
The United States of America and other believing nations are chosen by God to be spearheads for kingdom of God transformation. God is bringing about the redemption of the world from the oppression of the evil one to the glory of the kingdom of heaven on earth.
Currently the USA and most of the world has been largely cunningly deceived and generationally led away from its deeply rooted connection into Spirit God. Much of the substance of America and other nations of the world that had been growing in the governance of God has been deceived and taken over by the ungodly spirts of darkness.
THE AWAKENING OF AMERICA AND NATIONS OF THE WORLD
The evil plans of Satan and the powers of darkness are bringing great tribulation to the world. The failure of America and the nations to continue to honor Spirit God and be led by Him has allowed the enemy to take over the hearts and minds of the people. This has opened the door for the enemy to inflict massive darkness and thereby cause self-destruction of the peoples and nations of the world.
Even the natural created order of the systems of Planet Earth are thrown out of balance by the darkness ruling in mankind. This imbalance in nature causes increasing storms, floods, droughts, fires, and earthquakes bringing death and destruction to the nations.
The nations of the world are in dire straits for lack of wisdom for governing the affairs of life on Planet Earth. In general the nations of the world have lost the way of governing for life. There is debate, strife, and separation from the ground up and from the top down: brother against brother, families fragmented, tribe against tribe, nation against nation, and female against male. Immorality, violence, and war are everywhere causing great destruction of life. Nations are failing, and the people suffer starvation and lack of the basic needs of life.
AS BAD AS ALL THIS IS, IT IS A PART OF AWAKENING THE SLEEPING PEOPLE OF GOD.
We are awakening to intimate connection and relationship to our loving Spirit God Almighty. God is now becoming the Spirit behind all that we do or think, the strength and wise leadership for governance of our lives.
The gospel of the kingdom of God is again being proclaimed and demonstrated on earth. Truly a people is coming forth that SEEKS FIRST THE KINGDOM of GOD ruling in the governments of the world. Christ Jesus the Lord and King is growing in the hearts and lives of His pure holy sons and daughters on earth by the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 6:33) (Romans 8:9-11) (Galatians 4:19).
Be strong and very courageous in the Lord, knowing that the Lord and His kingdom are planted within you and will not fail even in the tribulation of the clearing of the land. In the cleared land the kingdom within you is planted to restore the kingdom of this world to the kingdoms of our God. (Joshua 1:7).
“Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, ‘The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!’” Revelation 11:15.
“Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32.
