Today, in a semi regular ritual where I have been reading the Bible in order, granted it's been a few weeks since I picked it up, I prayed beforehand that today I would see something in there that would help make sense of what is going on today. To me this was evidenced by the passage I read that with god, there are no coincidences.
"Therefore my loins are filled with pain; Pangs have taken hold of me, like the pangs of a woman in labor. I was distressed when I heard it; I was dismayed when I saw it.
My heart wavered, fearfulness frightened me; The night for which I longed He turned into fear for me.
Prepare the table, Set a watchman in the tower, Eat and drink. Arise, you princes, Anoint the shield!
For thus has the Lord said to me: “Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he sees.”
And he saw a chariot with a pair of horsemen, A chariot of donkeys, and a chariot of camels, And he listened earnestly with great care.
Then he cried, “A lion, my Lord! I stand continually on the watchtower in the daytime; I have sat at my post every night.
And look, here comes a chariot of men with a pair of horsemen!” Then he answered and said, “Babylon is fallen, is fallen! And all the carved images of her gods He has broken to the ground.”
Oh, my threshing and the grain of my floor! That which I have heard from the Lord of hosts, The God of Israel, I have declared to you." - Isaiah 21:3-10
Did you see what I saw in those verses? The lion is trump, and if there is any place on earth that represents the wickedness of Babylon today it is Washington D.C. The fight isn't over. My own faith wavered over these past few days and this verse, has rekindled that flame. God is moving right now and nothing can stop what is coming.
Eerie eh?
