The prophets are declaring that God is lining us up for a spiritual revival (redux) of Israel’s great deliverance at the Red Sea.

If this is true let His people rejoice and let His enemies beware!

And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. - Matthew 11:12

As the fate of our nation hangs in the balance, the time has come for the true Church of God to rise up and recover what the enemy is trying to steal. We do not need physical force. But we do need "Holy Violence".

How long, O Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you, "Violence!" but you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrong? - Habakkuk 1:2-3

Has there ever been a time when the faith of God's people been so sorely tested? The answer is, 'yes'; and the little Book of Habakkuk offers prophetic encouragement for us in an hour when the forces of darkness seem to hold the upper hand.

Some Christians complain that presidential elections force us to choose between ‘the lesser of 2 evils'; and since either choice is 'evil' they refuse to vote at all.
This kind of thinking could cost us our country.

Whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, to him it is sin. - James 4:7

As we approach the most important election in American history, statistics tell us that 40 million Christians will not vote at all and 15 million are not even registered to vote. How can these things be?

"Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits aflame with righteousness did I understand the secret of her genius and power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, she will cease to be great." - French historian Alexis de Tocqueville, 1835

Many are not aware of the fact that America's Christian pulpits shaped the formation and foundation of our great nation. But why are so many of them silent in our present day?

“If Satan rules in our halls of legislation, the pulpit is responsible for it. If our politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it.” - Rev. Charles G. Finney

As the fate of our nation hangs in the balance, God will hold His ministers accountable for which way she goes.

Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah, and said to him, "Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now give us a king to judge us like all the other nations have." - - 1 Samuel 8:4-5 (1050 B.C.)

America, as a nation, is coming to a defining moment on the November 3rd election day. It may surprise you to see the similarities with an election day in Israel that took place over a thousand years before the birth of Christ.

Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread. - Isaiah 8:12

In her book "Republic of Lies", author Anna Merlan writes, "The greatest threat to society today is disinformation, misinformation, and the monetization of lies.”

It is true that American Christians are confronted every day with 'Fake News' and "Conspiracy Theories'. What is the right response?

Now the Spirit expressly says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy...1 Timothy 4:1-2

“The great masses of the people will more easily fall victims to a big lie than to a small one.” - Adolf Hitler

Surveys show that a majority of American voters and an alarming number of professing Christians now lean toward socialism, a 'big lie' that is truly a 'doctrine of demons'.

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every man according to His works. - Matthew 16:27

One of the most insidious signs of socialistic ideology is how it displaces the biblical doctrine of personal responsibility by creating a sense of victimization and entitlement in the people groups it seeks to control. Jesus was not a Socialist!
