One of my readers told me the posts of the past week on both blogs have been on fire. That’s how I felt writing them. I can’t find words to express just how big this thing is for me right now.
Today I took a walk around the old Heritage Park Mall. I stopped on the north side from whence I took this image, and I prayed. The two anchors on either end were sold. The far end was Dillards and is now Life Church; the near end was Sears, bought by the City of Midwest City (local municipal government). The City wants to use the rest of the building with the Sears property as a municipal campus. That’s a pretty good idea, because nobody else wants this beast, and the City could use the expansion of space for both offices and recreation facilities. The old Mall Walkers Club would love to get back inside.
So I stopped in my walk and stood facing the side you see in the picture here. I prayed that the City could overcome the truculence of the actual owners, a bunch of jerks in California who refuse to negotiate with the City over codes and property maintenance. The whole thing is tied up in court. They are refusing to sell out of sheer spite, I am told, to teach us nobodies in fly-over country that we don’t merit their attention.
It’s not that I love the city government; I don’t like most of the officials I’ve met so far. Still, I’m praying for the welfare of the local people because I know for a certainty this is where God planted me. Across Air Depot Boulevard to the east is a strip mall, and I also prayed today for the prosperity of all the stores there. I prayed that the empty store fronts could be filled with businesses that would prosper. At least half the businesses in that strip mall sell nothing that I could want. But this is my mission field.
And it is not inconsistent with my prayer that the wrath of God will fall on America. Wrath can come in all kinds of ways; you should expect the wrath of God to be consistent with His Word. As noted in the past, this is not an apocalypse. The US will be broken up, but that doesn’t require a complete destruction of everything in the country. It means primarily the destruction of the globalist and Zionist stranglehold over so a vast number of people. The economy will suffer, for sure, because the US has dug itself into a deep hole. But the economy is not going to simply stop; it will fracture. God intends to reset things so that the focus becomes localized. The whole point is to cripple attempts at centralizing to empower globalists and Zionists further.
I realize this will tend to cut my own throat, so to speak, since my pension is federally sourced. I’m willing to let God handle that matter while I devote myself to what He has revealed as His will for me. I have all confidence that everything I need will be provided through His promises. God supports what He calls you to do. I am called to promote decentralization on every level, in every domain of human activity, with the exception for the time being of online stuff. And I encourage you doing the same thing wherever God has called you to serve Him.
Decentralized Power; the original purpose of the US Constitution, who’d a thunk it.
Actually I think it was the Articles of Confederation that kept things decentralized. My reading of history suggests that the Constitution was actually a very underhanded way of centralizing, though we do have the rather toothless 10th Amendment.
I’d be cutting my own throat, as well, in terms of my employer…at least the industry itself. Not so much with my particular profession, as most design issues are morally neutral (neutral in terms of commonly-accepted Western morals; I don’t truly think anything is morally neutral).
