"2016 - The Year of Wonders"


2016 – The Year of Wonders

 “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan,                                          with all power, signs, and lying wonders.”  2 Thessalonians 2:9 (NKJV)

Looking back on 2015 reminds me of so many prophecies in the Bible.  In Matthew 24 Jesus is telling his disciples about things that will happen in the end times.  These are things we don’t usually think about or connect with the days we live in and so I begin with facts recorded from 2015.
Only 1/3rd of Americans believe the Bible is the actual Word of God to be taken literally. About 1 in 5 Americans believe the Bible is an ancient book of “fables, legends, history and moral precepts recorded by man.”  Yet many call themselves “Christians” although they do not believe in the virgin birth or that there is a Satan or Hell.
There were 1.06 Million recorded abortions in the U.S. in 2014.
There are about 9 Million gay, transgender and bisexual [LGBT], or 3.8% of US citizens in America.
There are 42 wars world-wide and the U.S. is involved in 4 of them.
In 2014 over 32,727 people killed by Terrorists in the world.
Over 570,000 Americans die each years by drug addictions.
There are about 11 Million children that will face famine, disease and lack of water throughout the world in 2016.
National announcement: “A year of extremes: severe snow storms, drought and floods ravaged US in 2015”.
Muslims literally Hate America and Israel and according to their Koran we are infidels that should be put to death. 
We have many ‘false prophets’ within our churches who preach a false gospel.  Our enemy is not only outside, but inside as well.  Grace has been turned into Hyper Grace, that no matter what you do, God’s grace has you covered and there is no need for repentance.  The Word of God can be watered down to the point that everything is okay. For more information on these churches, some very popular, go to Charismanews.com and look up “Confronting the Errors of Hyper Grace”.  
As for signs in the heavens, there were 4 Blood Moons in 2015 which are called a ‘Tetrad’. These rarely occur, but the thing that is so strange is that each of them occurred on a Jewish feast day.  When it does happen a major event regarding Israel follows such as on June 7, 1967 the Jordanians launched an attack against Israel and west Jerusalem. Israel counter-attacked driving Jordan out of east Jerusalem, out of Judea-Samaria, and back into its own land across the Jordan River. Jerusalem was undivided and under Jewish control for the first time since the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in 70 AD.
Many of the things I have shared with you relate to Matthew 24 of which Jesus explained to the disciples.  So what we can expect in 2016?  We are going to be living in a new American concept where morals will continue to disappear and sin will be stricken from teaching of many churches.  In fact that is already taking place.  Some church will be closed because the Pastors will have preached the truth.
Politically correct will become law for many phases of our lives.  Prisons and jails will be emptied and thousands of predators and thieves will roam our streets free, putting our loved ones in great danger. Many more terrorist attacks will continue in larger numbers in this country and other parts of the free world.
Sharia law will continue to grow in Muslim populations and will affect our laws and way of life.
Our country has been feeding and babying these Arab countries such as Iran and it will come back to bite us.  We are so indebted to China that they will own more of our country than the US does. 
We look forward to new leadership which may change the course of our history.  If Hillary Clinton becomes president, we will continue on the same path as Obama, but if a republican wins the presidency, don’t expect a quick fix.  The last 8 years have dug us into a deep hole and it takes a long time to fill it, if ever. 
2016 does not look like a bright future and the only thing we can do is Stand.  We must remain strong as Christians and let no one change our belief in an Almighty God who is our Savior and Deliverer.  The wonder of 2016 is what it will take to bring people’s hearts back to Jesus.  Much of what we can expect will be ‘lying wonders’.  The enemy of your soul wants to use his power to deceive Believers and he has been doing it for a long time.
May God go before us and be our rear guard as we enter into the battle.
