It’s been said that everything rises and falls on leadership, and the world’s leaders completely broke in 2020 like never before. Throughout history, leaders have dismissed God. They have been deceived, and in their deception, they force citizens of their countries to suffer by dictating compliance with their agenda. Deception excuses sin and causes suffering. Isaiah 24:4-5, 19 (LB) explains that “the land suffers for the sins of its people… they have twisted the laws of God and broken His everlasting commands… the earth has broken down in utter collapse”.
It seems that there are leaders today who are creating problems on purpose because they think they benefit from going against God, creating chaos in all cultures and societies. The current global leaders (i.e., political, business, and religious) are a collection of weaknesses who lack essential moral character. They proclaim a false reality that says everything is getting better. The false reality is a powerful tool in today’s media and government efforts. A false reality is a façade that presents a veneer that everything is better than or worse than what it actually is according to the false reality. Behind the false reality is chaos that creates emptiness, vanity, confusion, and a lack of law and order, resulting in total disorder. The world as we know it is collapsing. Deception is everywhere, and it seeks to influence global culture in a way that devastates all relationships with the Creator. We live in dire times, and our time on earth is running out.
However, there is good news. God has provided salvation and a path to develop your relationship with Him. God uses situations and circumstances as an opportunity to build your faith. Your faith is the only thing you take with you into the afterlife. Your life is caught up in the mundane. Your faith is limited and extra ordinary. This is detrimental to your existence in eternity. You can experience an extraordinary faith where you experience a rich and vibrant relationship with God. It starts with humiliation and grows into humility. That is where your relationship with God must begin.
Believers must break through to the other side of faith, a full-functioning faith. Isaiah 6:1-6 (AMP) explains that understanding God’s holiness is humbling, challenging, and exhilarating because as you are purified by God in Christ’s sacrifice, you begin to experience the fullness of your potential.
In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw [in a vision] the Lord sitting on a throne, high and exalted, with the train of His royal robe filling the [most holy part of the] temple. Above Him seraphim (heavenly beings) stood; each one had six wings: with two wings he covered his face, with two wings he covered his feet, and with two wings he flew. And one called out to another, saying, “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of hosts; The whole earth is filled with His glory.”
And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, and the temple was filling with smoke. Then I said, “Woe is me! For I am ruined, Because I am a man of [ceremonially] unclean lips, And I live among a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.” Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs. He touched my mouth with it and said, “Listen carefully, this has touched your lips; your wickedness [your sin, your injustice, your wrongdoing] is taken away and your sin atoned for and forgiven.”
God is not broken. God’s love is not broken, which means hope is not broken. Lots of people have given up hope in life. People are bored with their extra ordinary lives and live recklessly because everything has become mundane. They like to take risks by ignoring the mental, social, physical, emotional, and spiritual health elements of life. Living recklessly keeps you from thinking about significant matters and meaningful issues like your purpose, work, relationships, life after death, and eternity.
