The lights dim, the curtain rises to a stage set with the pageantry of chaos, mixed messages and back-room bargained bribery.  Unbelievable the scene as it rolls out before an audience incredulous, stating, “no way we could have fallen for this fiasco”.  Buffoons display their strategic and political brilliance, shouting, “Look over there” as they pocket the people’s shiny coin returning empty hand to coffers in thievery.  A perfect picked lineup, choreographed by a manager with intimate knowledge of their willing wickedness, selecting just the right mannerism for each horrific role.  Bumbling boss, evil emperor, unengaged observer, all performing as if they truly possessed the malevolent characteristics of their casting.  The audience is lulled into silence realizing that they are seeing a frightening portrayal of current circumstance.  The terror rumbles through their quivering hearts as they begin to comprehend that this not simply a play but a cast made of true to life participants in the unfolding plan of Almighty God.

These rulers, leaders and pundits could not have been better selected for the dissolution of America.  Constitutional law professors, political professionals, land fiefs and wanna-be-imperials every possible character in the menagerie of greed enjoys full representation.  Common men cringe, fearing the fall of America accompanying a sense of powerlessness and apathetic indifference.  There is only peace found in the realization of prophecy, the knowledge and the comfort in the Will of God.  Those faces of comfort reserved for the saved and soon to be sanctified.  For the remainder, no rest, no surety, only self service and fear of impending disestablishment.

We pray for them oh God, as Your Word directs, these rulers You have thrust upon the throne in authority.  They are not fit, yet they are perfect for the circumstances given.  We dream of hope in Your return to bring sense to the nightmare.  Forgive us, mighty Lord for resisting their obeisance.  We have been given the reward for our actions, commensurate, proper, appropriate.  Let us understand and accept the bounty for our derision and disobedience.  Our folly came with a price that will soon be exacted by all.  Forgive us Father and lead us into the saving Grace of Your Quiet Mercy.  In Jesus Name, Come Soon.
