Victory

The Articles of Confederation outlined the original state of this union in its earliest form, establishing this land as a nation, and as a people who would live without being ruled by a king. For when this document was ratified, it decreed that each state in this territory was sovereign, and therefore, the people who dwelt on this soil had the divine right to independence and freedom: those inalienable gifts which I bestowed upon mankind long before the concept of this nation was ever birthed.

Yet to lay hold of these rights was not an easy task. For the early settlers not only had to fight the elements, but also had to enter a war against their former country in order to live as a free people: those who had the liberty to decide their own future.

However, just as it was then, it shall be now (although this battle is not being fought with sabers and muskets). The battle being waged over this election is ultimately being fought over the freedom of its people. Yet this time, it is not a monarch seeking to steal their rights away, but it comes from those who are supposed to uphold the Constitution, as it’s their own leaders who are attempting to steal this election, who also have designs on absconding with their freedoms.

But because a few hundred years have passed since this nation’s inception, the generations now living upon her shores are far removed from the struggle to win their independence, and so have taken for granted the privilege they’ve been given to dwell in this country as people who are governed and not ruled.

Unfortunately, this lapse in understanding has given their enemies the needed room to shred the laws which made her unique from all others, for there is no space for the ideologies which these espouse within this governing structure written so long ago. And though these documents, when penned, were just a first draft, these articles embodied the same concepts as the Constitution.

Yet, over the course of several decades, elected officials intoxicated with power, began to push back against the boundaries firmly established by these founding documents, for many who are situated in public office hold in their hearts the desire to rule like kings, looking for loopholes within these carefully crafted articles for opportunities to seize more authority.

However, there has not been a greater power grab seen in this nation than what is being witnessed right now through this election process, where blatant manipulation of the votes cast was used to distort the actual results. And so while many have settled in on the outcome (because some, considered as trustworthy sources, are affirming the projected winner’s claims), the people of this nation should not roll over and accept this conclusion.

Although as the battle continues, many citizens will grow weary of the fight, and simply resign themselves to agreeing with who the media has forced upon them as the winner. None who are Mine should, however, be found holding this view, for I am not pleased with the actions of these scheming leaders, and therefore, shall see them removed from their public platforms.

Then believers in this nation must see themselves like soldiers in a war: those whose country is under siege by a menacing force, unrelenting in its pursuit of domination. My own must stay on high alert, keeping watch on each perimeter, for this enemy is now emboldened, and shall not hide the direction of his assault. For he is hoping that his repeated attacks in a specific area will weaken My soldiers as a way to breach their lines.

But to you who are contending: remain strong in your commitment to this cause! For I have sent reinforcements from the unseen realm to fight alongside you until this campaign is won. Stay the course and resolve in your hearts that you shall not surrender your stance to “discouragement” when he attacks, as this enemy agent shall be sent in to knock you off balance, attempting to shift your focus from your divine mission and onto the weariness you feel inside.

Be ready, then, My fine soldiers, for the enemy shall indeed employ this tactic to weaken our lines. Therefore, stand firm in your conviction to maintain your position as victors no matter the lies you hear being spoken in your ears. For the enemy always uses subterfuge to breed confusion in the atmosphere. Don’t listen to him! Remain steadfast in your hearts, thereby keeping the enemy from gaining any ground.

So prepare now for this attack on your resolve, as the enemy shall indeed send in the voice of “discouragement” against My soldiers. But you who have the mind of Christ, be ever watchful over your thoughts, and cast off any which depict you as anything less than victorious.
