The Spirit of Mayhem

Have not the lives of those who’ve been slaughtered died in vain? For what real change have these senseless deaths achieved? Nothing, but more bloodshed on the streets of America! 

So while the talking heads and politicians are busy playing the game of blame, more have fallen victim to irrational acts of violence, and still nothing has changed. Yet the cure for what is really ailing this nation shall not be found in Washington, or through any form of legislation, as it is the very hearts of her people that must be corrected. Then let none be found foolishly thinking that more laws shall do the trick, as evil will always find a way to carry out its agenda regardless of how stringently the legal boundaries are set. For these have no plans of following the rules imposed upon this people, and therefore, more restrictive measures won’t be viewed by the wicked as a deterrent; as such, shall the violence continue.

Ah, but are not the deranged becoming more brazen, though there is a push amongst the political class for harsher penalties to be enforced against a specific form of violence in this land? Even still, these crazed offenders persist, as they have surely been encouraged by some that they themselves are the victims, and as such, have been provoked by society itself to retaliate with aggressive, and even deadly, force.

And so has the narrative been altered since the earlier assertions made about who is perpetrating these evil acts. For those previous descriptions offered about those gun-toting assailants (which were intentionally deceptive and cast a certain segment of this people in a negative light) have been proven false. For as has been seen in the recent days, evil comes from every segment of society. Those who say that the homicidal attackers are far away from me, therefore, are not my concern, have been deceived! For the enemy has now driven “stakes of permission” into the ground throughout this nation, as more than just a few have partnered with his lies of “victimhood”. He continually whispers a steady stream of violent suggestions in their ears, in a calculated attempt to prompt vicious, and even deadly, reactions, deriving great pleasure in seeing life after life destroyed.

So while some who hold political office have been quick to pin the onus upon “easy access to firearms” for the continuing flow of violent attacks found erupting across America, the stripping of this Constitutionally guaranteed freedom will do little to stop those who are bent on exacting revenge upon any they choose to blame for the assumed injustices they are thought to have suffered. For surely does the “spirit of mayhem” now occupy quite a large space of ground upon these shores.

Let Me say this again, so that My position is clear: To see Godly virtues become the norm in this country, and peace restored to this people, shall not be born through the government, but shall only rise from the continuing warfare and obedient efforts of My children. For it is the unwavering commitment to My higher purposes that shall bring forth this national reclamation.

Therefore, plant your feet firmly in an offensive stance, and launch forth against this dark “spirit of mayhem”, and in Jesus’ name, bombard his position with your prayers of warfare. Hit hard against his arsenal of disorder by assaulting any strongholds of confusion he has erected in your communities. Ask, then, that Holy Spirit invade this space with His presence, so that the Truth which has been obscured is finally brought into the light, and those who have agreed with his lies are freed from his grip. For surely have some already oppressed by depression become the gateways for mayhem to enact his evil schemes.

Do not put your head in the sand believing it is up to the lawmakers and politicians to bring order back to this nation, as this is simply misplaced hope, which, thereby, shall not be realized. For it is only My hand that can shift the heart of this nation! Therefore, do not look to the right or the left, but put your hope solely in Me. And as you lean into My commands, through this prayerful alliance forged, then shall an atmosphere of peace once again cover this land, as surely shall many more have embraced the virtues and high ideals of My Kingdom, instead of those promoted by the darkness that dwells in this world.
