THE GREAT RESET ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE

“The Great Reset” is a term one hears a lot in the news lately.  It is a term being used by those who promote global governance, in times past referred to as the “New World Order.”  The scripture actually tells us a lot about such a time that will occur before the LORD Jesus returns to earth to establish His kingdom.  I personally believe we are witnessing the foundations being laid for that time.

So many of the signs foretold in scripture are converging at such a rapid rate that I believe such a “reset” will happen soon.  It seems obvious to me that President Trump and others of his nationalist mindset have served to impede the implementation of this “reset.”  But it can’t be forestalled forever.  Scripture clearly teaches that it is the LORD that sets up and takes down kings and kingdoms in accordance with His will.  

Daniel 2:20–21 “Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are His: And He changeth the times and the seasons: He removeth kings, and setteth up kings….”


Based on that truth, I believe that God will see to it that rulers, be they presidents, kings, prime ministers, etc., who are crucial to the unfolding of His plan will assume those positions in accordance with His will and His timing.  


According to scripture, this worldwide “reset” will occur during the last seven years before Jesus returns as King of kings.  Scripture informs us that the time allotted to the rule of the satanic leader of this worldwide government is 3.5 years, though he will be rising to prominence and influence prior to that time.  In his letter to the Thessalonians, Paul tells us that this person will not be made known until the restraining influence of the Holy Spirit is taken away.  That influence is now present in the world in the person of every Christian that makes up the true church, those that have placed their faith in Jesus as their LORD and Savior.  When Jesus comes to take those believers home to heaven, the restraining power of the Holy Spirit will no longer be present.


When the church has been removed, the spiritual forces of evil will be allowed to have their greatest influence ever since the days of Noah.  Though we cannot identify a specific time in which these events will occur, we can see the signs all around us that identify the season.  I’m going to close by republishing a poem the LORD gave me a couple of years ago.  I pray it will encourage the hearts of believers as we look forward to going home.  I pray it will cause others to think about the truth that is presented in God’s word.  The only reason God has not taken us home yet is because of His longsuffering, his mercy;  He doesn’t want anyone to perish, to suffer the torment of hell.  Is He waiting on you?


2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.”  


THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES


Do you not see

The signs of the times

Foretold by the prophets of old?


Distress among nations

Moral decay

A focus on pleasures and gold.


Sin is abounding

Consciences seared 

God’s word is no longer revered.


His truth is rejected 

Wrong declared right

Accepted by many and cheered.


Deception is rampant

Blasphemy common

Those that are good are despised.


Natural affections

Are being rejected 

We’re urged to support gay pride.


The family unit

Is being destroyed

Marriage has been redefined.


Boys are girls

Girls are boys

Gender a choice of the mind.


Advances in science

Are crossing the bounds

Established by God at creation.


Experiments done

They quickly explain

For man’s good as their justification.


Satellites, lasers

Computers and chips

The powers that be want control.


Agendas prepared

Alliances formed

As Satan’s influence grows.


Most important 

Of all the signs

Declared to be part of God’s plan.


Descendants of Abraham

Isaac and Jacob

Are living once more in their land.


The prophet Ezekiel 

Predicted the rise

Of dusty dry bones from the earth.


The nation of Israel

A home for the Jews

In one day declared its rebirth.


Life is no different 

Than in Noah’s day

He preached and warned in vain.


Mocking and laughing

They called him a fool

Til one day the flood waters came.


One day soon

Millions will vanish

Taken by God to heaven.


Perilous times

Will then ensue

Full of terror, pain and oppression.


Many still try

But it can’t be denied

God’s word is faithful and true.


Turn from your sin

Be born again

Experience a life that is new.


Jesus died

Upon the cross

He suffered for your salvation.


The choice you make

To receive Him or not

Will determine your soul’s destination.


Do you not see

The signs of the times

Foretold by the prophets of old?


Don’t put it off

Accept Jesus today

Become safe and secure in His hold.
