A Sword Against the Babylonians
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable! The solution isn’t complicated. It’s just uncomfortable and inconvenient for too many people. But trust this, God favors the oppressed.
According to his word: This is what the Lord Almighty says: “The people of Israel are oppressed, and the people of Judah as well. All their captors hold them fast, refusing to let them go. Yet their Redeemer is strong; the Lord Almighty is his name. He will vigorously defend their cause so that he may bring rest to their land, but unrest to those who live in Babylon. “A sword against the Babylonians!” declares the Lord — “against those who live in Babylon and against her officials and wise men! A sword against her false prophets! They will become fools. A sword against her warriors! They will be filled with terror. A sword against her horses and chariots and all the foreigners in her ranks! They will become weaklings. A sword against her treasures! They will be plundered. A drought on her waters! They will dry up. For it is a land of idols, idols that will go mad with terror.” ~ Jeremiah 50:33-38
The most monumental change that we have experienced as a human race have each been birthed out a spirit of rebellion caused by the oppression of one by another. I encourage this: Stand on his word and believe in his promises. That does not mean do nothing. It actually may mean doing exactly what we’re doing (minus the looting). I’m still convinced that God is doing some of his best work during these times and that another monumental breakthrough will come from this! Head high… Organize, Plan, Execute! Trust in his plan! 🙏🏾🤞🏾 #BlackLivesMatter 💔#DontBooVote 🗳✊🏾💯 #ChangeTheVibe #RIPGEORGEFLOYD
