Trump could have fired most of the Devil
State if he had wanted to. Why he did
not, we cannot be sure, but if he is re-elected again, he needs to do just
that. Nevertheless, an item from Lifesite
News gives insight into just how deeply entrenched in D.C. the Devil State
is and that their influence is not just within US borders but goes even beyond
and just how ruthless they can be at their attempts to ruin reputations, defame
one’s character, and even worse. [1]
There may be more lawmakers and judges at every level of government who might desire to do what is right and best for our nation than we might think, but like Trump, they face a formidable adversary that opposes their efforts and attempts to undermine and sabotage them at every turn. That is not to say that there are not wicked people within our judicial and legislative branches and part of the Devil State themselves, but it is not just the faces we see that we should be concerned about, but our concern also needs to be with who is attempting to control things from behind the scenes and within the shadows and the people who surround our elected officials and representatives need to face just as much scrutiny as the people we elect to power and just as the deeds and wickedness of those we see before us need to be exposed, so also must the activities of the string-pullers, puppet masters, those running interference, and those attempting to direct the course of society from the shadows.
But the power of the Devil State, as formidable and terrifying as it may be, is still nothing compared to the degree of influence and power that the coming foretold global government under the yet to appear Anti-Christ will yield when it gains full control over all the nations of the world as foretold (Dan. 7, 8:10-14, 22-25, 11:36-45, Rev. 13, 17) for at the present time, the spirit of the New World Order is hindered and restrained though it be actively at work and all the more so as the time of the end of this present age draws near but the day is coming when the restraint will be lifted and that foretold wicked one will be revealed and his kingdom established and what gives him power is the very same thing that gives power to the present Devil State and those present agents of the New World Order and that is a rejection of truth and of righteousness for the more people reject truth and the things that are good and honorable, the more powerful the Devil State becomes and the less restrained and the truth that is being increasingly rejected is not any truth as defined by man nor does it come from any earthly power or institution, but it comes from a power and authority that is not of this world, but which created the world to whom all life owes existence and which was created for Him and by Him and as it is written, without Him, nothing was made that was made (Jn. 1:3) and it is He who is the source of all truth which makes Him the truth (Jn. 14:6) and because He is the truth, in Him is also found the way against the forces of darkness for it is by the embracing of this truth that the power of evil is diminished.
But the Devil State cannot be defeated from the top down, but rather an attack at their very source and an assault against the producers of it will yield better and longer lasting results for, as I have mentioned in a previous post that I published some time ago, [2] if we only assault them at the top, others will simply take the place of the ones removed.
Bail out all the water you will, but if the breaches from which it floods are not patched and the clog holding it in is not found and removed, more of that filthy water will just keep flowing in and not only must the breaches be repaired and the clog which keeps it from draining removed, the fountains from which that evil water spews forth must be dug up, torn up, and replaced with better fountains; good fountains from which pour out life-giving water that is nourishing and refreshing.
We cannot expect the process to be done overnight (though that would be nice) but rather we must be prepared for it to be a long, arduous, difficult, tedious task that will take years, decades, and even generations to carry out and even if we were to restore our nation to what it was intended to be, then there is also the issue of maintaining that restoration which is a task never ending.
But this doesn’t begin with our government. This process begins with each and every one of us because it requires an inward transformation within us which requires an inward cleansing because the Devil State is not merely a product any elitist class, but is also enabled and empowered by an evil and a corruption that is everywhere and within each and every one of us that the spirit of behind the Devil State, the Cabals, and the coming New World Order appeals to and manipulates in tempting us into evil and causing us to play into his hands and it has been so ever since this corruption entered into the first man and into the first woman from whom we descend.
For when the heavens and the earth were created, there was no evil and no corruption; not even within mankind for when God had created the heavens and the earth, there was only life and purity and with it a perfect peace, unity, and harmony between God, man, and all of nature and there was nothing withheld from Adam who was the first man, nor from his wife Eve, the first woman, except for one thing and that was a certain tree called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, both having been warned that in the day that they ate the fruit thereof, they would surely die. (Gen. 2:16-17, 3:3)
But the adversary of God, who takes captive the souls of men, came in the form of a serpent and by a lie, (Gen. 3:4-5) caused Adam and Eve to do the very thing that was forbidden to them and that was eating the very fruit from that very tree that they were told not to eat from (v. 6) and it was in the day that they ate thereof that the very corruption that resides within all of us entered into them; that corruption which entered into them being called sin which is not merely bad behavior, or just an evil act, or even careless and ill-spoken words. It is much more than that. It is the corrupted condition of our very nature which influences not just our behavior, actions, or even the words we speak, but also the very nature of our thoughts, motives, and the condition and attitudes of our heart which is why it is written that we are not defiled by that which is without but by that which is within. (Mt. 15:11, 18-20)
For that first transgression which caused sin to enter into Adam and Eve, the sentence of death of which they had been warned, was pronounced upon them (Gen. 3:19) and that which had entered into them was then passed to all of mankind for it is from Adam and Eve whom all of mankind descend (Rom. 5:12) and with the sin that was passed from Adam to all of mankind came also death for it is in sin that death has its power which is why it is written that the wages of sin is death (Rom. 6:23) but the consequences of sin extended to all of creation as well by its curse and taint, bringing into it not only death and decay but every kind, degree, and severity of evil, suffering, misery, torment, affliction, pain, grief, sorrow, oppression, cataclysm, and destruction which is why it is written that the entire creation groans and travails in pain to this very day. (Rom. 8:19-22)
The world as we know it to be, with all of its evil and suffering, is not what God intended or desired it to be, but became that way because of sin beginning with the transgression committed by our first two ancestors who ate of that forbidden fruit which brought sin into him, which was inherited by all of humanity, by which death came into the world, and by both of which all of creation is afflicted, but not only did the consequences of Adam’s transgression bring sin and death into the world, to all of humanity, and a curse upon all of creation because of sin, it also gave that deceiving serpent who we know to be Satan or the Devil justification to claim lordship over the nations, kingdoms, and empires of the world (Mt. 4:8-9, Lk. 4:6-7) which is why he is called the prince of this world (Jn. 12:31, 16:11) but even worse than that, because of sin, we are born estranged from our Maker from whom we would otherwise not be estranged and that estrangement is what cuts us off from the Kingdom of Heaven and prevents us from entering in or being heirs to the better world to come that we have been promised and that can only mean one thing for they who die in their sins: Eternal separation from God which will bring nothing but an unrelenting everlasting torment beyond what we can possibly imagine or even anything that we may face in this present life and one to which there is no end and no escape:
By a lie were Adam and Eve led into disobedience.
By a lie did sin enter into them which brought upon them the sentence of death
By a lie was the dominion and authority given to man over the earth (Gen. 1:26) usurped and diminished.
By a lie did that sin which entered into Adam and which brought death to him also through Adam, pass into all of humanity bringing with it death.
By a lie was creation itself subject to a curse brought upon it by sin.
By a lie did sin separate man from his Maker.
And by a lie is man blinded to the danger of the judgment he faces because of sin.
And it is by lies that he is blinded to the way of salvation.
Therefore it is by truth that we are made aware of our inherently corrupt state.
And in being made aware of our inherently corrupt state only then do we begin to understand how we have all sinned and continue to sin and fall short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23) which is moral perfection and why our own goodness, because of sin within us, will never deliver us from the judgment to come because sin within us taints, soils, and corrupts even our own goodness.
Only then when we understand how it is that we all fall short of the glory of God and that there is nothing we can do to save ourselves from the wrath to come or deliver ourselves from the eternal damnation that awaits those who remain in their sins do we then understand that we are in need of a Savior who is able to redeem us out of all of our sins so that we may be delivered from the wrath to come.
And the Lord God who made us has sent us such a Savior, Jesus Christ, in whom there was and is no sin (2 Cor. 5:21) and because there was no sin in Him, He was able to be that needed unblemished and perfect sacrifice (Heb. 7:26-27) required to take away the sins of the world.
By His death and the shedding of His blood upon the cross on which He was crucified, both the demanded penalty for sin was satisfied and mercy shown to sinful man and after having paid that unfathomable debt on our behalf, He rose again from the dead so that we, by our faith in Him for the forgiveness of sins would be justified (Rom. 4:25) in Him. Therefore, anyone calling upon the name of Jesus Christ, sincerely believing that He died on the cross for their sins and rose again from the dead will be saved from their sins and from what would otherwise be an unimaginably terrifying judgment of everlasting unrelenting torment. (Rom. 10:13)
And with redemption comes a change (2 Cor. 5:17) and that much needed change within us that cleanses our souls from that sin from which the evils and corruptions that we see within every trusted institution, civic and non-civic, at every level and within every sector and branch of society are produced and which are exploited and manipulated by the spirit behind the evil residing within those institutions influencing and directing the course of our society.
And this change and transformation within us that takes place with the forgiveness of sins is a change that causes us to no longer desire to follow after selfish and worldly pursuits but after those things that pertain to the Kingdom of Heaven,
to no longer take pleasure in those things that are evil and displeasing in the sight of the Lord, but in that which is good, right, and pleasing in His sight,
to no longer desire to walk in the lies of this present world, but only in the truth that comes from Christ Almighty, no longer placing our hopes in the things of this present world, but looking forward to that new and better world to come, (Rev. 21-22)
to no longer rely on worldly resources, men, or even our own power, abilities, skills, and wisdom for our needs and provision but upon God who is able to meet all of our needs, recognizing that the resources of this world and even the people He brings into our lives are but instruments and vessels through which God meets our needs and that the skills, power, knowledge, and wisdom by which we might acquire our provision are provided and instilled in us by God,
to no longer fear what men can do to us, but rather fearing the God before whom we will have to one day give an account for how we lived our lives, (Mt. 10:28)
to no longer look to corruptible institutions within our society for direction and order in our lives but to God who, by His written Word has given us laws and precepts to be applied to our lives and which serve to produce and maintain an ordered life, and who, by His Holy Spirit which comes to dwell within us upon repentance, establishes in our lives a course and direction in our lives to pursue for His glory,
to no longer seek our own glory but the glory of God,
to no longer rally behind corruptible men, but instead behind the incorruptible God in Heaven bearing in mind that those men and women God raises up for our edification are but instruments and servants of His for that respective purpose to which He has called them,
to no longer seek to align ourselves with the things of darkness but only with the things of the light,
to no longer trust in the wisdom of the world but only on the wisdom and knowledge that comes from above, nor depend on corruptible earthly authorities to swiftly administer justice, but only in the power of God to deliver us from evil.
The same truth that opens our eyes to our wretched inward corrupted condition is also that same truth that calls upon us to repent of our sins so that we may escape judgment and to call upon the name of Jesus Christ for salvation from eternal damnation.
It is by the acceptance and submission to that truth that we are made spiritually anew and reconciled to our Creator
It also that truth that declares that Satan’s dominion over the world will come to an end. (Jn. 12:31)
And by that truth will we also be made free of bodily death, just as it has made us free of spiritual death and bondage (1 Cor. 15:51-55, 1 Thess. 4:13-18)
And also by that truth will creation itself be liberated from the curse of sin when it is made into a new creation in which there is no sin, no death, no decay, no cures, no evil, darkness, no evil, no suffering, no pain, no grief, no sorrow, no misery, no hardship, and no discord, but only life, light, peace, purity, holiness, goodness, righteousness, godliness, happiness, contentment, unity, love, and joy before the Lord God Almighty as He had intended from the beginning. (Rev. 21-22) Indeed the truth does set all free (Jn. 8:32) who embrace it, but we must be willing to love it, embrace it, apply it, and preach it, even when it is not a pleasant thing to speak or to hear if we are ever to be free indeed.
Better to be used of God to shame and scare men into the His Kingdom than to be used of the Devil to lull them into a false sense of security and into a peace that blinds them to their sinful condition by which they are condemned to a Christless eternity of never-ending and unceasing immense torment.
But to this day, that father of lies (Jn. 8:44) who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (Jn. 10:10) has from the beginning fought and still continues to fight against that very truth which sets the captives free; that truth being Jesus Christ who is the way, the truth, and the life (Jn. 14:6) and no other, for by no other name can men come to God for it is Christ Jesus who is the only begotten Son of God whom God sent into the world to take away our sins and to make us into faithful and devoted servants and vessels unto God Almighty.
By various devices and tactics does Satan try to lead away and shut out of the Kingdom of God those who might otherwise enter in. Whereas the Spirit of God appeals to the conscience, to reason, and speaks to our very heart and soul, the Devil constantly appeals to sinful flesh and by way of sin, corrupts and hardens hearts, fills them with evil, darkens our attitudes, soils our thoughts, and corrupts our motives and through our sinful nature, tempts us into evil and leads us away from the things that are good and right.
And when temptations fail, Satan distracts us with the cares and worries of life thereby turning our hearts and minds away from the things of eternity, causing men to set their sites on storing up for themselves temporal treasures on the earth rather than those treasures in Heaven which last forever, and when distractions fail, he will resort to twisting against us the faith and virtues to which we profess to hold and shame us into compromising and even abandoning those things we know to be right and good, and when that fails, he will attempt to cause us to doubt the things of God by way of philosophical, intellectual, and even religious challenges, and when that fails, and when that fails, he will attempt to turn men against their Creator with hardship, adversity, and undesirable circumstances, and when that fails, he will resort to threats and intimidation against both they who would embrace the truth of God and against they who would dedicate themselves to preaching that truth, being the Gospel of Salvation in Christ Jesus, and when those whom he threatens and attempts to intimidate remain undaunted, he may very well make good on those threats by bringing against them persecutions of every degree and severity beginning with lighter forms such as ridicule, ostracization, and discrimination to the more severe forms such as civic punishments which can include fines, imprisonment, torture, and even death itself, and when violence, destruction, and death do not come from the ruling powers themselves against those who would follow Christ, they can still be brought upon them by simply by their fellow citizens including members of their own households.
And what Satan is not able to destroy from without, he will infiltrate and corrupt from within thereby drawing noble, honorable, well-respected, and well-intended institutions and movements from their intended purposes and ruining their credibility with those who might otherwise place their trust in them.
Satan does all in his power to withhold, hide, and even suppress anything that might lead those souls whom he holds captive into embracing the saving faith in Christ that frees men from damnation, spiritual darkness, despair, and a meaningless existence because his power is strengthened and maintained by lies and the more souls embrace the truth that saves and sets free, the less power and influence he has and therefore it should be no wonder or surprise that he would put it into the hearts of God-hating men to censor, hide, suppress, and destroy anything that would challenge and discredit the lies by which he is empowered and what they cannot hide, suppress, or destroy, they will twist, pervert, corrupt, and misrepresent in order to turn they who might other
But truth is not afraid of that which may challenge it, it does not fear debate, and feels no need to resort to coercive and forceful means to silence its detractors, but is content with discrediting the detracting lies through debate and the demolishing of arguments against it but they who would resort to silencing and suppressing anything that challenges their preferred and favored narrative regarding any matter is not showing themselves to be on the side of truth but on the side of lies for the strength of those dark powers, evil principalities, and wicked rulers is in lies which is why no Devil State, nor any wicked government, nor any globalist power can be defeated by anything but truth and not just any truth but the truth which is Christ Jesus our Lord and by no other name by no other truth and by no other doctrine and by no other authority can evil at any level be overcome or defeated but by the power and authority of Jesus Christ.
That being said, not even Donald Trump can defeat the Devil State but by the power, truth, and authority of Jesus Christ regardless of how hard he might try otherwise.
None of Trump’s associates, family members, or lawyers can defeat the Devil State but by the power, truth, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Kari Lake cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Mike Lindell cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Ron DeSantis cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Greg Abott cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Ken Paxton cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Mike Flynn cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Lin Wood cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Sydney Powell cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
No Pastor or any other religious leader, no blogger, commentator, prolific writer, orator, radio talk show host, nor any news or media outlet can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power and authority of Jesus Christ
No person of authority or influence at any given level or degree can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
No educator can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
No established institution, no matter how well intended, honorable, trustworthy, or respectable, can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Neither MAGA, the Tea Party, or any political movement can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
And it is because the spirit behind the Devil State will never suffer defeat but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ for what gives the Devil State its power are those who have no love of the truth and take pleasure in unrighteousness for that is what will give rise to the foretold one world government and to the coming Anti-Christ in whom its power will be centralized. (2 Thess. 2: 7-12)
The only encouraging news about the coming New World Order is that it is not destined to last but for a short season when it shall be overthrown, not by the might of man, but by the might of Almighty God, who when He returns to the earth, will consume and subjugate all kingdoms and nations to His will and it will be a reign that will have no end. It will be a Kingdom in which truth and justice will prevail and righteousness will be enforced, but it will not be a Kingdom in which they who have sided with Satan will have any part, for all they who taken pleasure in their sin and in the things of evil and who have aligned themselves with the things of darkness and who have rejected the truth will be cast into a place of eternal darkness filled with nothing more or less than an everlasting and unrelenting torment with which they shall be punished day and night without relief forever and ever, but they who turn away from their sins and call upon the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins with a full and sincere trust in Him for salvation, and who submit to His authority, embrace and abide in His truth, and take the side of godliness and righteousness will be assured a place in that promised Kingdom to come which will be far better than the present world and age in which we live.
The question for you today is which side will you ultimately choose? Will you side with Christ whose Kingdom is from everlasting to everlasting just as He is from everlasting to everlasting, or will you side with Satan to our own eternal destruction?
If you choose Christ, then be willing to turn away from all of your sins and call upon Him for the salvation of your soul and commit yourself to faithful diligent service to Him and to abiding in His truth. It is but a simple sincere prayer of repentance away:
"Lord Jesus I need you.
I realize that I am a sinner
who has fallen short of the glory of God
and that my goodness falls short
of your standard of Moral perfection.
Please forgive me of all of my sins.
Come into my heart and into my life
to be the Savior and Lord of my life.
Make me into the servant and follower
that you want me to be.
In your name Lord Jesus, I pray.
Amen."
Know that God is not concerned with the words that you use to call upon Him forgiveness, but with the attitude of your heart and if you have, with all sincerity, have asked Christ to forgive you of your sins, placing your trust in Him only for your salvation and in nothing else, then your sins are forgiven and your place in Heaven is certain.

Therefore, anyone calling upon the name of Jesus Christ, sincerely believing that He died on the cross for their sins and rose again from the dead will be saved from their sins and from what would otherwise be an unimaginably terrifying judgment of everlasting unrelenting torment. (Rom. 10:13)
And with redemption comes a change (2 Cor. 5:17) and that much needed change within us that cleanses our souls from that sin from which the evils and corruptions that we see within every trusted institution, civic and non-civic, at every level and within every sector and branch of society are produced and which are exploited and manipulated by the spirit behind the evil residing within those institutions influencing and directing the course of our society.
And this change and transformation within us that takes place with the forgiveness of sins is a change that causes us to no longer desire to follow after selfish and worldly pursuits but after those things that pertain to the Kingdom of Heaven,
to no longer take pleasure in those things that are evil and displeasing in the sight of the Lord, but in that which is good, right, and pleasing in His sight,
to no longer desire to walk in the lies of this present world, but only in the truth that comes from Christ Almighty, no longer placing our hopes in the things of this present world, but looking forward to that new and better world to come, (Rev. 21-22)
to no longer rely on worldly resources, men, or even our own power, abilities, skills, and wisdom for our needs and provision but upon God who is able to meet all of our needs, recognizing that the resources of this world and even the people He brings into our lives are but instruments and vessels through which God meets our needs and that the skills, power, knowledge, and wisdom by which we might acquire our provision are provided and instilled in us by God,
to no longer fear what men can do to us, but rather fearing the God before whom we will have to one day give an account for how we lived our lives, (Mt. 10:28)
to no longer look to corruptible institutions within our society for direction and order in our lives but to God who, by His written Word has given us laws and precepts to be applied to our lives and which serve to produce and maintain an ordered life, and who, by His Holy Spirit which comes to dwell within us upon repentance, establishes in our lives a course and direction in our lives to pursue for His glory,
to no longer seek our own glory but the glory of God,
to no longer rally behind corruptible men, but instead behind the incorruptible God in Heaven bearing in mind that those men and women God raises up for our edification are but instruments and servants of His for that respective purpose to which He has called them,
to no longer seek to align ourselves with the things of darkness but only with the things of the light,
to no longer trust in the wisdom of the world but only on the wisdom and knowledge that comes from above, nor depend on corruptible earthly authorities to swiftly administer justice, but only in the power of God to deliver us from evil.
The same truth that opens our eyes to our wretched inward corrupted condition is also that same truth that calls upon us to repent of our sins so that we may escape judgment and to call upon the name of Jesus Christ for salvation from eternal damnation.
It is by the acceptance and submission to that truth that we are made spiritually anew and reconciled to our Creator
It also that truth that declares that Satan’s dominion over the world will come to an end. (Jn. 12:31)
And by that truth will we also be made free of bodily death, just as it has made us free of spiritual death and bondage (1 Cor. 15:51-55, 1 Thess. 4:13-18)
And also by that truth will creation itself be liberated from the curse of sin when it is made into a new creation in which there is no sin, no death, no decay, no cures, no evil, darkness, no evil, no suffering, no pain, no grief, no sorrow, no misery, no hardship, and no discord, but only life, light, peace, purity, holiness, goodness, righteousness, godliness, happiness, contentment, unity, love, and joy before the Lord God Almighty as He had intended from the beginning. (Rev. 21-22) Indeed the truth does set all free (Jn. 8:32) who embrace it, but we must be willing to love it, embrace it, apply it, and preach it, even when it is not a pleasant thing to speak or to hear if we are ever to be free indeed.
Better to be used of God to shame and scare men into the His Kingdom than to be used of the Devil to lull them into a false sense of security and into a peace that blinds them to their sinful condition by which they are condemned to a Christless eternity of never-ending and unceasing immense torment.
But to this day, that father of lies (Jn. 8:44) who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (Jn. 10:10) has from the beginning fought and still continues to fight against that very truth which sets the captives free; that truth being Jesus Christ who is the way, the truth, and the life (Jn. 14:6) and no other, for by no other name can men come to God for it is Christ Jesus who is the only begotten Son of God whom God sent into the world to take away our sins and to make us into faithful and devoted servants and vessels unto God Almighty.
By various devices and tactics does Satan try to lead away and shut out of the Kingdom of God those who might otherwise enter in. Whereas the Spirit of God appeals to the conscience, to reason, and speaks to our very heart and soul, the Devil constantly appeals to sinful flesh and by way of sin, corrupts and hardens hearts, fills them with evil, darkens our attitudes, soils our thoughts, and corrupts our motives and through our sinful nature, tempts us into evil and leads us away from the things that are good and right.
And when temptations fail, Satan distracts us with the cares and worries of life thereby turning our hearts and minds away from the things of eternity, causing men to set their sites on storing up for themselves temporal treasures on the earth rather than those treasures in Heaven which last forever, and when distractions fail, he will resort to twisting against us the faith and virtues to which we profess to hold and shame us into compromising and even abandoning those things we know to be right and good, and when that fails, he will attempt to cause us to doubt the things of God by way of philosophical, intellectual, and even religious challenges, and when that fails, and when that fails, he will attempt to turn men against their Creator with hardship, adversity, and undesirable circumstances, and when that fails, he will resort to threats and intimidation against both they who would embrace the truth of God and against they who would dedicate themselves to preaching that truth, being the Gospel of Salvation in Christ Jesus, and when those whom he threatens and attempts to intimidate remain undaunted, he may very well make good on those threats by bringing against them persecutions of every degree and severity beginning with lighter forms such as ridicule, ostracization, and discrimination to the more severe forms such as civic punishments which can include fines, imprisonment, torture, and even death itself, and when violence, destruction, and death do not come from the ruling powers themselves against those who would follow Christ, they can still be brought upon them by simply by their fellow citizens including members of their own households.
And what Satan is not able to destroy from without, he will infiltrate and corrupt from within thereby drawing noble, honorable, well-respected, and well-intended institutions and movements from their intended purposes and ruining their credibility with those who might otherwise place their trust in them.
Satan does all in his power to withhold, hide, and even suppress anything that might lead those souls whom he holds captive into embracing the saving faith in Christ that frees men from damnation, spiritual darkness, despair, and a meaningless existence because his power is strengthened and maintained by lies and the more souls embrace the truth that saves and sets free, the less power and influence he has and therefore it should be no wonder or surprise that he would put it into the hearts of God-hating men to censor, hide, suppress, and destroy anything that would challenge and discredit the lies by which he is empowered and what they cannot hide, suppress, or destroy, they will twist, pervert, corrupt, and misrepresent in order to turn they who might other
But truth is not afraid of that which may challenge it, it does not fear debate, and feels no need to resort to coercive and forceful means to silence its detractors, but is content with discrediting the detracting lies through debate and the demolishing of arguments against it but they who would resort to silencing and suppressing anything that challenges their preferred and favored narrative regarding any matter is not showing themselves to be on the side of truth but on the side of lies for the strength of those dark powers, evil principalities, and wicked rulers is in lies which is why no Devil State, nor any wicked government, nor any globalist power can be defeated by anything but truth and not just any truth but the truth which is Christ Jesus our Lord and by no other name by no other truth and by no other doctrine and by no other authority can evil at any level be overcome or defeated but by the power and authority of Jesus Christ.
That being said, not even Donald Trump can defeat the Devil State but by the power, truth, and authority of Jesus Christ regardless of how hard he might try otherwise.
None of Trump’s associates, family members, or lawyers can defeat the Devil State but by the power, truth, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Kari Lake cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Mike Lindell cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Ron DeSantis cannot defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.

No Pastor or any other religious leader, no blogger, commentator, prolific writer, orator, radio talk show host, nor any news or media outlet can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power and authority of Jesus Christ
No person of authority or influence at any given level or degree can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
No educator can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
No established institution, no matter how well intended, honorable, trustworthy, or respectable, can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
Neither MAGA, the Tea Party, or any political movement can defeat the Devil State but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ.
And it is because the spirit behind the Devil State will never suffer defeat but by the truth, power, and authority of Jesus Christ for what gives the Devil State its power are those who have no love of the truth and take pleasure in unrighteousness for that is what will give rise to the foretold one world government and to the coming Anti-Christ in whom its power will be centralized. (2 Thess. 2: 7-12)
The only encouraging news about the coming New World Order is that it is not destined to last but for a short season when it shall be overthrown, not by the might of man, but by the might of Almighty God, who when He returns to the earth, will consume and subjugate all kingdoms and nations to His will and it will be a reign that will have no end. It will be a Kingdom in which truth and justice will prevail and righteousness will be enforced, but it will not be a Kingdom in which they who have sided with Satan will have any part, for all they who taken pleasure in their sin and in the things of evil and who have aligned themselves with the things of darkness and who have rejected the truth will be cast into a place of eternal darkness filled with nothing more or less than an everlasting and unrelenting torment with which they shall be punished day and night without relief forever and ever, but they who turn away from their sins and call upon the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of their sins with a full and sincere trust in Him for salvation, and who submit to His authority, embrace and abide in His truth, and take the side of godliness and righteousness will be assured a place in that promised Kingdom to come which will be far better than the present world and age in which we live.
The question for you today is which side will you ultimately choose? Will you side with Christ whose Kingdom is from everlasting to everlasting just as He is from everlasting to everlasting, or will you side with Satan to our own eternal destruction?
If you choose Christ, then be willing to turn away from all of your sins and call upon Him for the salvation of your soul and commit yourself to faithful diligent service to Him and to abiding in His truth. It is but a simple sincere prayer of repentance away:
"Lord Jesus I need you.
I realize that I am a sinner
who has fallen short of the glory of God
and that my goodness falls short
of your standard of Moral perfection.
Please forgive me of all of my sins.
Come into my heart and into my life
to be the Savior and Lord of my life.
Make me into the servant and follower
that you want me to be.
In your name Lord Jesus, I pray.
Amen."
Know that God is not concerned with the words that you use to call upon Him forgiveness, but with the attitude of your heart and if you have, with all sincerity, have asked Christ to forgive you of your sins, placing your trust in Him only for your salvation and in nothing else, then your sins are forgiven and your place in Heaven is certain.
