You'll find a lot of poor chess players playing the war of attrition. Reducing the number of variables in play. This leads to predictable outcomes and is easily countered by the skill player with foresight.

The best players set up their forces in advance of any major attack. There may be the odd skirmish, but both sides will withhold their main attack until they feel they will have the upper hand once the battle truly commences.

In this type of game it can look like not much is happening, but each move is being thought about in terms of the whole battle outcome with all the other pieces in play and (hopefully) achieving dominance at the end of it.

When the attack happens it involves a lot of things happening very quickly and a lot of pieces being removed from the board in a short space of time. At the end game it is usually quite easy to see who will win.

If Q is confident they have counters for all their opponents moves then it's just a question of time, but sometimes you can't start the final battle yourslef because it might put you out of position.

The enemy knows this and will try to stall as long as possible, hoping that their enemy will amke a mistake that will allow them to turn the tide.

Patience is key.

Example: I was in a losing position in a game recently, totally outplayed. However, my opponent had left his King vulnerable to a surprise attack. If I had attacked this weakness straight away it would be easily countered. What I had to do was draw his pieces into an attack that would take his mind off his weakness.

He eventually did exactly that and I won a checkmate, completely at odds with how the game went. This is what I believe the Cabal are trying to do. As long as Q doesn't take his eye off his own position/weakness it shouldn't be a problem.

So I hope anyway.

Through some reflection and scripture reading, the Holy Spirit pressed on me the fact that I've never learned how to play chess well. I've always been a man lacking foresight, which I've come to respect that chess teaches you to sharpen. This has also helped me to view my walk as a Christian differently and to see God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in a whole different light. I've always called God the Chessmaster and I've yet to truly dig to see even a glimpse of the necessary perfect and complete foresight He must have to do the things He does. The battle for good vs evil as Q put it isn't as simple as I've thought it. Obviously we've known it isn't simple but playing chess has given me a new appreciation in how difficult and hard this task is for Q. Furthermore how amazing God must be to be able to accomplish all He has and how perfect His plans are.

The Holy Ghost has taught me to be more single to myself and to mind my own business today.

Acts 9:15

15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

John 21:21-22

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?

22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

So in light of this study of chess I've found respect in God's foresight as well as how much planning really takes.

Driving it home that I ought to relax more and trust God and Q and mind my own business and live my own life and not get too consumed with everyone else's. I gotta protect and serve adequately for my own before trying to serve elsewhere.

I pray these thoughts are Holy Spirit inspired and that God blesses everyone here in Jesus name, Amen.
