THE END OF ALL KINGDOMS- PART 2
This is THE TRUMPETER, a medium dedicated to warning and informing God's people. Its also the period we are looking at the world events and amazing facts about the last days, as already foretold in the Word of God.
In today's episode, we are going to conclude our last week message which relates to the end-time agenda. It's all about the era of democracy which will herald the coming of The Lord and welcome the world Dictator, the man Antichrist. Remember, I said that God has His calendar and follows it systematically. His word must surely come to pass.
Let us pray.
In the Name of Jesus Christ......Amen
Our Heavenly father, sanctify us with your word for your word is truth. Minister knowledge and wisdom to us through your revelation and bring us to the fullness of your understanding. Thank you Lord,as all glory will be returned to you through Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Subject again is; THE END OF ALL KINGDOMS ---PART 2
Again, Lets go to the scriptures;
DANIEL CHAPTER 2 verses 31 to 35 and verse 39
“Thou, O king, sawest, and, behold, a great image. This image, which was mighty, and whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the aspect thereof was terrible. As for this image, its head was of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass, its legs of iron, its feet part of iron, and part of clay. Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them in pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken in pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors; and the wind carried them away, so that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth”
39, And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth”
Friend, you should remember that in our last episode, we looked at the way God gave king Nebuchadnezzar an interpretation of his dream through his servant, Daniel. It was all about the kingdoms in existence before and during the birth of Jesus Christ on the earth.
We have looked at the first kingdom which is:
The head of Gold representing the king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar himself which lasted from the time of six hundred and nine to five hundred and thirty nine BC
We are looking at the other kingdoms which are no more, except the one which is reviving fast now.
So, the second kingdom Daniel saw was the kingdom of Medo-Persia represented by the chest and arms of Silver in the golden image. It was an inferior kingdom to the first one. The empire succeeded the kingdom of Babylon. This was seen in Daniel chapter 2 verse 39.
“And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth”
The 2nd kingdom lasted from five hundred and thirty nine to three hundred and thirty one BC. (539-331)BC
You should remember that I told us, any kingdom which were in existence of the world was a signal and a doorway for the ultimate kingdom which is coming to take over the affairs of mankind. All other kingdoms shall be swallowed by this everlasting kingdom. They shall be as a chaff of the summer threshing-floors and the wind shall carry them away. They shall be no more.
Friend, the whole world is waiting now for the establishment of this everlasting kingdom. Jesus Christ is coming again. He is the stone cut without hands which smote the image upon his feet. His reign will cover the whole earth as the stone became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.
Are you ready to meet him at his coming -to take His saints away or are you deceived by many things you see around today?
In this end time, men are putting their trusts and hopes in many materials and kingdoms that will fail. I don't know the places you are leaning upon- may be in your riches, that charm that was given to you by a native doctor or in a useless material?.Do you belong to one secret society and use one fire-less church as a cover-up?Any where you place your hope outside God, the creator of the world is a false hope and a sinking sand.
The world is changing and too fast.
Many people are befriending the enemy and gradually taking his mark.
Our world is being ruled by many dark worlds. We have many mighty preachers, Theological and Bible colleges, Christian channels, Christian books, gospel hymns, and many churches everywhere and yet we are swallowed up by iniquity.
Our generation is mocking God.
No wonder, the host of a program, "The Tonight Show"in one of our Christian nations made a mockery of hell. He sang a song, I'm Gonna Go to hell when I die" Really, he should see his master, Satan there and millions of people who committed terrible iniquity more than him.He should watch out, for closing eyes here is opening it there in a second.
Daniel saw the 3rd kingdom
It was a kingdom of belly and thighs of Brass. This was the Grecian kingdom which lasted from three hundred and thirty one to one hundred and sixty eight BC.(331-168) The Greeks under the leadership of Alexander the Great were the third conqueror.
Alexander the great was born in Pella, the ancient city of Macedonia. When he took over his throne, he was surrounded by enemies at home and threatened by rebellion abroad. He ordered the execution of all enemies. Though a genius but could be cruel and ruthless when politics demanded. An alcoholic who killed his friend, Clitus in a drunken fury. Before his death, he ordered the Greek cities to worship him as a god. When an illness killed him, he had no son to continue his empire and his generals tore it apart, each trying to secure his own power. This was the general. Friend, no matter your capacity, you must close your eyes permanently one day.
Remember the popular slogan"Alexander the Great conquered the world but couldn't conquer himself" Because of his addiction for alcohol,the kingdom ended.
Really, nothing lasts forever except the life lived under the knowledge of God,which will make one to spend eternity with Him.
Friend, that little kingdom you are building may collapse because of one little fox which spoils the vine- that little addiction you allowed. It may be addiction for pornography, sex,alcohol,crazy materialism, drugs and you know them.
God wants to be at the center of your life. That was the message of Pope Ratzinger to the entire world when he vacated his seat in Vatican, Rome-the city of seven hills,few months ago.God is not pleased with your Sunday-Sunday approach. Our land is overflowing with what I called "nightclub believers" who live with the devil six days a week,and then go to Church on Sunday to play religion. They have Churchianity without Christianity. They guzzle their booze, tell dirty jokes, gaze with unholy looks at the opposite sex, curse in Gods name, watch Godless programs, gossip and then dress their best to fool the crowd every Sunday.
Friend, be careful for that addiction may pull down your self-built kingdom.
No wonder our friend, Jonathan Edward after praying for 17 hrs wrote a book he tilted "Sinners in the Hands of angry God" Really, hell is enlarged. Some people just needs the mercy of God first before requesting for prayers of favor and prosperity.
The word of God in Hebrews chapter 10 verse 31 says "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God"
Good Friend, hear it again. A life lived outside God is a sinking ground. It's a life of misery, sorrow and disappointment at the end. How do I know this, many Greek gods came to an end and their famous monuments destroyed by the Almighty God. This symbolic fall of the Pagan gods seemed to pave way for the domination of the Christian God of the Iron kingdom.
Do you know that the Big temple of Artemis at Ephesus was burnt down in three hundred and fifty six BC by a mad man, the night Alexander the Great was born. It was restored in three hundred and twenty three BC, the year Alexander died and was destroyed finally by the Goths in two hundred and sixty two AD
Why do i mention these things? It's for you to know, that any place one placed his hope and trust apart from the Almighty God, through his son, Jesus Christ will fail.
Now, We are about to enter into the last kingdom which had existed and have formed as the leg of Iron, having ten toes. This is the Roman Empire and its ten Revived kingdoms. The word "toes" shows nations or different rulerships.
The first three kingdoms I mentioned existed in Daniels's day but Rome did not. So Daniel did not identify it directly by name. Rome was known as the "Iron Monarchy". The Latin word "Rome" means strength and Iron is the strongest of all the metals. According to a legend, Rome was founded by twin brothers, Romulus and Remus in seven hundred and fifty three BC
Rome was the kingdom in charge during the birth of Jesus Christ.
Time may fail me in the explanations of this empire but my listener, the man Daniel pointed out things to watch for, about this kingdom
Lets go to Daniel chapter 2 verses 40-45
“And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron, forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things; and as iron that crusheth all these, shall it break in pieces and crush. And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, it shall be a divided kingdom; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron doth not mingle with clay. And in the days of those kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor shall the sovereignty thereof be left to another people; but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
One of the striking things about this 4th kingdom is as the iron mixed with miry clay and they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men.
Really, it's an impossible task for iron to mix with clay but in this case, there may be some trials but should not work because the ultimate government is on the way to point to the reality. With men, it is impossible but unto Him, who lives forever, all things are possible.Hallelujah.....
My Brother and sister, can't you see the word of God fulfilled before your face?. Indeed, this is the final generation. Are you still playing church or thinking that there is much time? Are you procrastinating your day of repentance like Pharaoh who asked Moses to remove frogs in his house and farms tomorrow.
Friend, tomorrow never comes!
I Repeat, time waits for no one. Repent today, if you are a sinner. Tomorrow never comes. The devil will not like you to hear this kind of message. Are you in the assembly where they are prophesying to you peace, peace while you know there is no peace for the wicked. You need to re-locate. As a sinner,What you need to pray first is, Oh! Lord, have mercy upon me a sinner.
When you do this, you"ll begin to prosper.
Oh! I weep for this generation because of many things happening under the surface which many people are not aware.
Really, this democratic age will witness a sudden caught up of the Saints by the sound of the trumpet, to meet The Lord in the air. The saints triumphant can't wait too long.
The 10 toes, seen by Daniel is the 10 European nations which is here with us today.The Revived Roman Empire has been born.At the end, we shall see the strong and weak kingdoms. Different financial problems are visiting some of them today.
Many strong nations of the world are being shaken today. Now, you hear of economic recession of Greece, unemployment in Germany, inflation in Italy,Spain, Portugal and others. All these were powerful nations but now facing some dangers. The world is indeed heading somewhere. Are you reading the handwriting on the wall or among the scoffers of the last days?
I don't know where you are now- in your room, in the office or inside a church, the trumpeter is telling you to make hay while the sun shines. The European nations are now using their single currency-the euro while other continents and trading zones are planning to have theirs. Any moment from now, the West Africa will have theirs,which may be the Eco.
All these financial tokens will be merged together to form the much waited, One single currency. Already, our cashless society is here with us.
Friend, You see all these money that are deceiving mankind today- turning you a kidnapper, life of prostitution,selling your born child,killing your mother or father for ritual and sacrifice, committing immoralities and other dangerous vices shall be a dung, and of no use when the Antichrist, the world dictator comes. Money is good but its love is the root of all evils.
My listener, don't wait for the Antichrist, look and watch for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Democracy will elect and usher in the anti-Christ, the one opposing Christ or against him.
Remember what Jesus said in John chapter 5 verse 43
“I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive”
Jesus is saying that many people will embrace the anti-Christ when he comes.
Before the consummation,Can't you see this stone that is about to demolish every human kingdom? Any structure and kingdom outside him shall fall.
Jesus is about to establish his glorious kingdom. The word " without hands" is an indication that the event is not by human activity.
Christ is the Stone. The cutting out of the stone is not just the incarnation of Christ which had happened but another event which we are anticipating. He is the Rock that will appear at the end of this age to save the saints, smash all worldly powers and begin a government of righteousness on the earth.
Friend, if you don't know this great Rock, Jesus Christ, believe me, you are living a wasted life. I'm not talking about the religion or denomination you belong to. I'm talking about this personality who came and took your place and died for your sins,rose again after the third day and living now. Jesus Christ is his name. He says " I'm coming again"
This stone can shield you, break all the evil darts of the enemy in your life, turn around your situation, deliver you from every pain and sorrow. He will promote your course and guarantee your future in eternity.
Will you surrender to him today before it becomes too late?
You can repeat this prayer and believe it.
Lord Jesus, I come to you now by faith. I'm a sinner. Forgive me and give me the grace to live for you. I reject self, the world and satan. From today, I promise to follow you till the end. Thank you Lord for accepting me. Amen.
Congrats! my friend ,for the new life in Christ you've received today.
If you are sick, afflicted, in sorrow or having problems in your business,marriage or career,I now pray for you.
Lord, locate my listener now, heal all diseases by the reason of your word, arrest anything challenging him and take him to the next level of his Career.Connect him to his destiny and disconnect every enemy which surrounds him. Bless his business, his marriage and studies. Thank you Lord for we pray in Jesus Name. Amen
MARANATHA!
