Every year seems to get us closer to a global crisis of unprecedented proportions. But today on the 5th of May 2025, writing from a five star Seoul hotel (the Courtyard at Marriott Namdaemun), I am lost for words on how to describe the intensity of the world events percorlating at the surface.
As the book of Mathew 24: verse 6 to 7 stated: "You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but
The only way to understand the times we are in is to see the world events from the timeless perspective of God, our creator. He is outside of the dimensions of the past, present and the future.
This is why we are not to see ourselves as pawns in a chess game of good versus evil. Rather, we are to settle this game as if we are the game changer who can strategically change the rules to reach a final checkmate.
The opponent is bent on creating havoc, distractions and confusion. But is changing the rules a form of cheating? No. We are in full control of our destiny by an act of faith as faith in the Word of God is our only weapon.
The formulae for victory is very simple: decree and declare the Word of God over every circumstance and be aligned to the will and guiding of the Holy Spirit. Be thankful always and take authority as heirs to the inheritance of the Kingdom of God.
