NEW WORLD ORDER
principalities
Psalm 55:20,21 - He has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him; he has broken his covenant. The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, But war was in his heart; His words were softer than oil, Yet they were drawn swords;
Psalm 115:4,5,6,7,8 - Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see; They have ears, but they do not hear; Noses they have, but they do not smell; They have hands, but they do not handle; Feet they have, but they do not walk; Nor do they mutter through their throat. Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them;
Psalm 5:9 - For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction; Their throat is an open tomb; They flatter with their tongue;
powers
Psalm 83:2,3,5 - For behold, Your enemies make a tumult; And those who hate You have lifted up their head. They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered ones...For they have consulted together with one consent; They form a confederacy against You;
Psalm 140:1,2,5 - Deliver me, O Lord, from evil men; Preserve me from violent men, Who plan evil things in their hearts; They continually gather together for war...The proud have hidden a snare for me, and cords; They have spread a net by the wayside; They have set traps for me;
Psalm 35:15,20 - But in my adversity they rejoiced And gathered together; Attackers gathered against me, And I did not know it; They tore at me and did not cease...For they do not speak peace, But they devise deceitful matters Against the quiet ones in the land;
rulers of the darkness
Psalm 94:5,6,20,21 - They break in pieces Your people, O Lord, And afflict Your heritage. They slay the widow and the stranger, And murder the fatherless...Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law, Have fellowship with You? They gather together against the life of the righteous, And condemn innocent blood;
Psalm 2:1,2 - Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against the Lord and against His Anointed ;
Psalm 10:3,4,5,8,9,10 - For the wicked boasts of his heart's desire; He blesses the greedy and renounces the Lord. The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God; God is in none of his thoughts. His ways are always prospering; Your judgments are far above, out of his sight; As for all his enemies, he sneers at them...He sits in the lurking places of the villages; In the secret places he murders the innocent; His eyes are secretly fixed on the helpless. He lies in wait secretly, as a lion in his den; He lies in wait to catch the poor; He catches the poor when he draws him into his net. So he crouches, he lies low, That the helpless may fall by his strength;
spiritual hosts of wickedness
Psalm 106:34,35,36,37,38,39 - They did not destroy the peoples, Concerning whom the Lord had commanded them, But they mingled with the Gentiles And learned their works; They served their idols, Which became a snare to them. They even sacrificed their sons And their daughters to demons, And shed innocent blood, The blood of their sons and daughters, Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; And the land was polluted with blood. Thus they were defiled by their own works, And played the harlot by their own deeds;
Psalm 38: 12,19 - Those also who seek my life lay snares for me; Those who seek my hurt speak of destruction, And plan deception all the day long...But my enemies are vigorous, and they are strong; And those who hate me wrongfully have multiplied;
Psalm 7:14 - Behold, the wicked brings forth iniquity; Yes, he conceives trouble and brings forth falsehood;
King Saul represents that authority mentioned above. He had all rule over the people. He had full use of the armies for his purposes. He had expendable access to the lands resources. No one challenged his actions. Instigated fear was perpetrated without empathy. The Bible describes this particular government to come more perfectly in I Samuel.
I Samuel 8:11-17 , "And he said, 'This will be the behavior of the king who will reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint them over his own chariots and to be his horsemen, and some will run before his chariots. He will appoint captains over his thousands and captains over his fifties, will set some to plow his ground and keep his harvest, and some to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will take your daughters to be perfumers, cooks, and bakers. And he will take the best of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give them to his servants. He will take the tenth of your grain and your vintage, and give it to his officers and servants. And he will take your male servants, your female servants, your finest young men, and your donkeys, and put them to his work. He will take a tenth of your sheep. And you will be his servants'." Oh, did I mention that all they manage to do well is TAKE!
David represents the little flock of God, the Church, the Body of Christ, the true Believers (I say it this way so that those who are trusting only in their church membership and religion must either take heed to examine if they are really in the faith or may have to, sadly, exclude themselves as "foolish virgins" because the way is uncompromisingly narrow). The one hundred and fifty psalms inspired by the Holy Spirit tells an awesome story. It is not only David's story, or prophecy regarding the Messiah. David saw beyond into this present age. David was a man who experienced the trials that await us today. He wrote about what it felt like to be persecuted by the hands of king Saul. David managed to survive his anguish during his time of terrible tribulation. If you read closely, you find that his emotions are all over the place; he's hopeful, joyous, fearful, vengeful, hurt, sad, and then hopeful all over again. Especially when he imagines a 'better day' coming. But what about us. There is a future day coming in our lifetime when Christians will feel terror, not from without, but from within. The system that you think is there to serve you, will soon become your master. Don't believe me...
