We may have heard the last Trump as president, but we haven’t heard the Last Trump of Revelation yet, and things are about to get real for Christians.

Genesis 49:24 (KJV) But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; (from thence [is] the shepherd, the stone of Israel.

Are you one of those people who still believe Trump is going to ride in on a white horse and save the USA from these awful Socialist Democrats who are now running our nation? You need to realize something. This last 4 years was not about Trump. This next 4 years won’t be about him either. Don’t get me wrong; I love the man. He did a great job as President. However, that does not make him our Savior. There is a huge difference in believing God placed him for a purpose and believing he’s the one who will save us. It’s not Trump who will save this nation. The destiny of our nation sits solely in the hands of the one true God: El Shaddai (Hebrew for God Almighty).

Genesis 22:14 (KJV) And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said [to] this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.

So many of you are discouraged by the election still. So many of you have given up. So many of you put your faith in a person. You missed the point. Jehovah provided Trump. The Democrats are feeling invincible these days because they stole this election. They think they can’t be stopped. Their policies could destroy this nation; BUT THEY WON’T!!!

Since the founding of our nation: GOD HAS BEEN IN CONTROL!!!

John 16:33 (KJV) These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Many believers in Christ have given up because they believe an AntiChrist is about to be revealed and they are on the verge of being raptured. These folks are putting their hope in a false prophecy. Between now and when Christ returns we are going to face tribulations. Many Tribulations!

Psalm 39:7 (KJV) And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope [is] in thee.

Romans 5:3-4 (KJV) 3 And not only [so], but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

Strong’s Definitions: †θλῖψις thlîpsis, thlip’-sis; from G2346; pressure (literally or figuratively):—afflicted(-tion), anguish, burdened, persecution, tribulation, trouble

So many are currently saying: “all hope is lost! Biden/Harris will destroy the USA! Things will never be the same. Doom and gloom are what we now what we have to look forward to.” STOP IT!!! That’s the wrong attitude! We are not watching the Biden/Harris show. We are not watching the Donald Trump show. We are watching a Spiritual War. An unseen war that though we can’t see it; we can feel it. We need to replace fear with hope. It will get tough though. We will face many tribulations before Christ returns.

2 Timothy 3:1 (KJV) This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

If you haven’t paid attention to any of my posts let me enlighten you. WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS! AKA the End of times. The Bible doesn’t say it will get easier. It doesn’t teach us that we will have abundant easy living lives. It says things will get tough. Being a Christian is not some walk in a park it’s a hard existence. I repeat SERVING CHRIST IS NOT EASY!

1 John 5:4 (KJV) For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, [even] our faith.

There is no need for doom and gloom. God has a purpose for this nation. He has a purpose for those who put their faith in Christ. We are living in exciting times. The enemy is losing. When the election was stolen; God did not lose. He has never lost. Don’t kid yourself either. When you declared Jesus Christ to be you’re Lord and Savior; you enlisted for battle.

Luke 19:13 (KJV) And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

As servants of Christ we were given gifts that we are to use for His cause. We are to engage in this Spiritual War with Him. We are not called on to be idle watchers. We are called to action. We are called to support Christ’s agenda. We are the keepers of the Gospel Message. This message needs to be given abundantly. This is our calling.

Luke 8:17 (KJV) For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither [any thing] hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

When Donald Trump became President were you aware of how bad the corruption in our government has become? We’re you aware of the child trafficking? How many Republicans did you think were trustworthy? How many Democrats did you think were trustworthy? How many Pastors showed their true colors? How many self declared prophets were proven false? These 4 years were not a defeat. God used Donald Trump to reveal some things. To move forward we can’t lose hope. It was awesome to see our President acknowledge Jesus Christ as his Savior. It was even more awesome to watch corruption being revealed. In combat the enemy is better off hidden. Suddenly, like frogs in a flashlight beam; they are out in the open.

Ephesians 6:11 (KJV) Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Are you ready for what is about to happen? Are you prepared for hard times? Are you wearing your Spiritual Armor? Are you prepared to be Victor or a victim in this Spiritual War? When it gets really hot will you be able to keep your faith? Remember, no matter how hard things might get. No matter how tough your situation might become. Don’t stop trusting in Christ; HE ALWAYS WINS!
