Weak Negotiations

When an absence of understanding is in place, efforts to accomplish objectives that are affected by those things that are not understood produce results falling far short of the desired end, or in many cases no results at all.  The side effects of those efforts are frustration and anger.

In the case of an auto that runs on gasoline, an empty tank will result in a car with no power.  If the operator does not understand that the car needs gas to run, he will become frustrated as he turns the ignition key to the start position with none of the intended results.  If he persists at the attempt to start the vehicle without adding gas to the tank he may eventually not get to work on time… or at all.  When payday comes and the check is too small he may become angry at the car for not working. 

Too often, the philosophy of modern day leaders is that they do not need to understand God’s laws and principles… they will come to their own solutions.  Unfortunately, this lack of any attempt to gain spiritual understanding results in answers and solutions that simply do not work.  One would only need to read the first eleven chapters of the bible to find out that nations serve, and have served, a vital purpose throughout a lengthy period of man’s history.  This has been in effect since man has written down his activities in the books of history. 

The story of the tower of Babel reveals the intervention of God into the affairs of mankind as too much world unity was endangering the race as a whole.  While modern philosophy believes the solution is to have unity, the spiritual reality is that world-wide oneness is an invitation to disaster.   Lucifer knows this and is spoken of as desiring and attempting to both “weaken” and “deceiving” the nations.  Weak nations have no ability to hold the world in check, as they are susceptible to the power of centralized (read that as “global”) government.  The tower of Babel was a project born out of the desire for global dominance by one Nimrod, son of Cush.  At least, that is what appeared to be the genesis of it all.  But really, it goes back one more step to the spirit behind the madness… it came from Lucifer.  His desire is to have world-wide control… more importantly (to him), world-wide worship.  Nimrod was the devil’s first Anti-Christ.  God undid the unity by means of the nations formed from the chaos in Babel.

Fast forward to the present.  The nations of the world are weak… not in weaponry… but in resolve and understanding and because they are the world is “ripe for the picking”.  As the undisputed strongest nation in the world sits at the table of a third rate rouge state it negotiates from a position of weakness… endangering the entire nation… the entire region… the entire globe.  War is looming on the horizon and global government will be the outcome of it… all because men think they can negotiate peace with nations that have no such desire.  Ask Neville Chamberlain how that worked out.  Oh… you say his is dead.  Right… but we may have a conversation opportunity soon if something doesn’t change.   “Imagine”… nothing to kill or die for.   Thanks John.
