Whether or not you immerse yourself in the headline news, national podcasts, cable news networks, conversations at the office water-cooler, family discussion regarding our surrounding world events, you do have a inkling, a knowledge, a knowing, that things are not right in the world in which we live.
The previous post ended with this: Seismic Spiritual Shaking.
The context of those words has been discussed in several of the previous posts.
These words were first shared in December 2025.
The development of the importance of these three words have been brewing, from my perspective, in the past decade, since the 2016 election.
Even before the election of 2016, there was a formidable animosity growing against Donald Trump and the realization that he was going to seek the Presidency of the United States.
The truth is that his political desire to be President became a driving force for what has turned the uncovering of a political agenda that had been developing for many years in our nation.
Unfortunately, the public and private conflict that has evolved because of his desire to be President and to seek to ‘Make America Great Again’ has been like the discovery of a ‘kidney stone ‘stuck in this nation’s ‘political bile duct’; and the political physicians of our nation have wrestled over how to remove ‘him’, not the ‘stone’ so that things can ‘flow’ again in the same way that things were flowing before he became President.
The problem is that Mr. Trump is not the ‘kidney stone’.
The ‘kidney stone’ has been enlarging for many years in our nation because of the diet of politics that it has been fed; and now with its painful realization, we are experiencing its effects due to its size and its difficulty to remove.
Q: Is there a doctor in the house?
The focus on removing the President, keeps the nation’s attention on him, and diverts the attention away from the ‘blockages’ in our governmental system.
The two political parties are like opposing doctors prescribing their diagnosis and treatment needed to remedy this nation and make it well.
As President of the United States, Mr. Trump becomes the ‘physician in chief’.
“We the people” make up the body of this nation and we are the ones suffering from our political doctors.
The pain is real, the complications are severe, the potential consequences can be devastating.
A ‘kidney stone’ that is not properly taken care can be terminal if not properly treated.
Just recall the demise of the nations of this world throughout history.
People of this nation are concerned about the political well-being of our nation.
Will our political ‘kidney stone’ pass on its own?
Will it pass out of our system with political medications?
Or will it require an extensive surgery to remove our political ‘kidney stone’?
Many are ‘waiting’ it out.
Meaning what?
This ‘stone’ will become more tolerable to live with and with its pain when Mr. Trump’s presidency is over.
Then we can consider what ‘surgery’ is needed to remove the ‘stone’.
Maybe.
Others are seeking to expedite the removal of this ‘stone’ surgically.
This type of ‘surgery’ is called ‘the political process’.
How do I know this?
It is not hard; consider the intense battle over voter identification.
The problem is that throughout Mr. Trump’s terms as President, many have not been in favor of him as the ‘physician-in-chief’ to perform the operation(s) needed to remove this ‘stone’.
Mr. Trump is characterized as a politician (physician-in-chief) with a very poor ‘beside’ manner.
He has exhibited many positive ‘operating skills’ as ‘physician-in-chief’; but in a way that often offends his listeners.
Unfortunately, Mr. Trump’s ‘beside’ manners make the headlines; but many of his positive results performing a successful ‘operation’ have been ignored and/or purposely overlooked.
Please understand I, too, am grieved by his ‘beside’ manners; but I am grateful for the ‘successful operations’ that he has performed seeking to restore this nation to make it well again.
It is a daunting task; especially when you are constantly being accused of and sued for ‘malpractice’.
So, here we are, in the second year, of Mr. Trump’s second term of being President, and the political diagnosis, the political gamesmanship, the political wrangling continues.
Is anyone else tired of the political rhetoric; the media’s daily pontificating; and/or the personal agenda of self proclaiming critics that see it as their duty to keep the public informed of the ‘wrongs’ that daily beset this nation?
I choose not to watch or listen to the hysterical headline news.
I do read headlines and choose which ones to pursue so as to have an understanding of what is going on in our nation and the world.
I have assumed a personal wait period of 48-72 hours before jumping to conclusions.
I have found that this is a more reliable way to find out what the truth of a reported news story is really about.
Most of the time this works; but not in every case.
I have allowed myself to be ‘sucked’ in, only to find out, I was not patient enough.
I have even had people tell me, that I have missed it.
That’s ok.
Then how do we are believers keep in touch?
Refocus our attention.
Be disciplined in your walk with the Lord.
Read the Word of God; listen carefully to what the Holy Spirit is saying.
Jesus Christ, the Head of the Church, had the Apostle John write down what He wanted to say to seven churches.
Consider this: These three words: the Seismic Spiritual Shaking will bring change.
The greatest Seismic Spiritual Shaking happened at the CROSS, Matthew 27:45-55.
The Lamb of God took away the sin of the world.
In The Revelation of Jesus Christ, there are 5 key earthquakes (shakings) spoken of: Revelation 6:12-14; Revelation 8:5; Revelation 11:13; Revelation 11:19; and Revelation 16:18-21.
Is there an earthquake (shaking) that takes place when Christ returns?
Yes!
Zechariah 14:4.
Jesus, Himself, speaks of earthquakes being a sign of the end times.
See Matthew 24:1-8.
Things being ‘shaken’ are not foreign to the Word of God.
On the Day of Pentecost, what transpired in the upper room is ‘symbolic’ of a ‘shaking’ from heaven. Acts 2:1-4.
(See also, Acts 4:13-31; Acts 16:16-34)
God uses ‘shaking’ to get peoples’ attention.
The Seismic Spiritual Shaking that is coming will get people’s attention.
Buckle Up!
What makes this Seismic Spiritual Shaking possible?
A ‘stone’ was removed that had sealed the tomb in which Jesus, who was crucified, was laid.
The ‘stone’ did not prevent His resurrection.
The removal of the ‘stone’ allowed His followers to see the empty tomb.
The Lord Jesus Christ is Risen, just as He said.
The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead brings newness of life and our blessed hope.
Why is there a Seismic Spiritual Shaking ?
Because, God is moving by His Spirit throughout the earth.
The Word of God is being preached; people are getting saved; being water baptized; filled with the Spirit; healed, and delivered evil spiritual bondage.
The Book of Acts is unfolding before us in this hour, just as it was when the Church began, and recorded by Luke.
What is happening today has happened throughout the history of mankind.
What the nations of this world are witnessing is the grace, mercy, and love of God being made available to those who will receive the Gospel of truth about the person of the Son of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.
God’s word is being confirmed with signs and wonders following.
This is happening throughout the world and will continue to grow, and then the end will come.
What will be witnessed is the reality of the Seismic Spiritual Shaking that took place on the CROSS where Jesus, the Begotten Son of God, was nailed.
There on the cross, a collision took place, a Seismic Spiritual Shaking.
A collision between the love of God and the wrath of God.
I call is The L.A.W. of the Cross.
The Love And Wrath of the Cross.
