In the chess games of life

 

The following is important:

 

  • When “dark circumstance” is marching against you, do not get reactive.

  • Instead look up to Jesus, and take your thoughts captive in order to not become overcome with evil, but to overcome evil with good. Romans 12:21

 

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,...against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, To Stand:

 

​

On "The Chess Board of the Soul", we accept the "checkmate" that Jesus won for us and we also use God’s strategic wisdom to diffuse enemy strongholds to put the dark side in, “check”. This enables us to take territory for the kingdom of heaven in order to make the world a better place.

​

​

​

In the "end game" all hell is going to break loose and  along with the right attitude it is also going to take wisdom, discipline and endurance to win the prize that God has promised to those that love Him. Please consider the following words from Jesus: 

 

…and many false prophets will arise and mislead many. Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.  BUT THE ONE WHO PRESERVES TO THE END WILL BE SAVED …Mathew 24:11-13

​

​

It really will be tempting to scream at the dark side and get mad" But we are called to be "the light  and the salt of this world. So, as the world continues to descend into the anarchy of a "Mad Max world" and the anti-Christ tech emerges in the aftermath. Here are a  few strategies to "stay emotionally balanced and mentally strategic" 

​

  • Instead of  checking the news or talking with anyone first thing in the morning, "check in" with "The almighty" by reading psalms out loud,  saying prayers and doing bible study. 

  • Then have breakfast and then a light workout to warm up, before stepping into the day. 

  • I also suggest always having a bible and in your purse, pocket or backpack  for quick reference throughout the day and listen to christian music or your favorite pastor in your car or as you clean the house. 

  • Also play more chess, it helps to "see things as they are" and make logical decisions that are not reactive. 

  • And remember it is not about what happens to us, but only how we respond. After all we have the millennial Kingdom to look forward too.

They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; and they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has come down to you, knowing he has only a short time.”…Revelation 12:11-12

Mathew 24:5-14 

  •  Jesus said to them in reply, “See that no one deceives you.For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they will deceive many.

  • You will hear of wars and reports of wars; see that you are not alarmed, for these things must happen, but it will not yet be the end.

  • Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes from place to place. All these are the beginning of the labor pains.

  • Then they will hand you over to persecution, and they will kill you.

  • You will be hated by all nations because of my name. And then many will be led into sin; they will betray and hate one another.

  • Many false prophets will arise and deceive many; and because of the increase of evildoing, the love of many will grow cold.

  • But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

  •  And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the world as a witness to all nations,

  • And then the end will come

​

Author commentary:

 

  1. Warfare and civil unrest creates famines and sin creates earthquakes, as our actions affect the creation

  2. Our current technology makes it very easy to both find and profile people, so it will be very easy for the powers that be, to round up and persecute Christians.

     The drug induced : “mix” The knowledge of Good and evil

 

A theory is that the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil was in the same order as peyote, mushrooms and the heroin poppy and had the ability, as any drug pusher would say, “to expand the mind” to allow extrasensory perception to see/judge right from wrong. The question is, “How could knowledge of right & wrong make us sinful and separate us from God?”

 

 The nutshell version to this question is that it created what is commonly defined as, “ the mix:”  Here is the theory: If I could see faults within my self and others and do not have the maturity or self control over my own spirit, then I learn to judge, criticize, condemn and self justify my actions based off what I think I see, without not necessarily knowing or understanding all the facts. This is why, Jesus gave us the antidote, when He died for our sins and got us on Heaven's recovery program by  teaching  us to forgive, be merciful, love our enemies and bless instead of curse. Remember, the spiritual war that we are in, is fought in the place of our emotions, and perceptions as the enemy cannot physically harm us, he and his demons live in the spirit world, so his tactic was and is to get us to fight each other so that he can divide, conquer and then enslave human beings to be used in “the end game.”

​

Some may wonder why the the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil was planted in the Garden of Eden. And the simple answer can be found in the following bible verse.

 

For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried. Psalm 66:10

 

There are many more passages in the bible that also speak of life as a "test."  We are also created to do the good works and to learn how to be transformed from the "Wild beast before the Lord" into the "citizen of heaven as well. But for this particular "task at hand"  in dealing with "the end game." It is important to know that difficulties are "only a test." And we just have to have the right mental, emotional and spiritual fortitude to be the end time survivor. But more than anything, it is important to know that Jesus won the game for us, we just have to trust Him as savior and our King.....and look forward to the two witnesses, the second coming of

Jesus, the millennial kingdom and eternal life in heaven.
