“First-time visitor, may His Spirit comfort you, for ‘the Comforter… shall teach you all things’ (John 14:26 KJV).” Welcome in the love of Christ—‘As Christ also received us to the glory of God’ (Romans 15:7).
For the love of money is the root of all evil, which, while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Timothy 6:10). Essay Four in the When Darkness Rules a Nation series.
“Hello, friends!” This section of this essay will demonstrate how the serpent seed is closely related to how the general public behaves toward something that is highly relevant to surviving in a cruel world.
I) The Deception of Wealth:
From the dawn of human history, wealth has been both a tool and a temptation. In the Garden, Satan promised Eve more than she had, convincing her that God was withholding something better. This same whisper has carried down through every generation: “You need more. What you have is not enough.”
Money itself is neutral, but when the love of money consumes hearts, doors swing wide to darkness. Demons know that men who lust after gold will sell their souls for it. They have made greed into a religion, and the currency of this world into their idol.
II) Economic Thrones of Darkness:
Nations rise and fall not simply by armies but by currencies. Babylon, Rome, and every empire in between wielded wealth as a weapon. Today, global economies are manipulated by unseen forces, not only by bankers and financiers, but by the powers of darkness pulling their strings.
Every financial collapse, every inflation crisis, every manipulated market bears the fingerprints of those who use cursed currencies to enslave populations. The Book of Revelation warns of a day when buying and selling will be controlled entirely by the beast system (Revelation 13:16–17). We are seeing the groundwork laid.
III) Greed in Leadership:
Greedy leaders pave the way for darkness. They take bribes, exploit the poor, and write laws that benefit the wealthy while crushing the weak. (Proverbs 15:27). Warns: “He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house.” Yet entire governments, corporations, and institutions are now driven by this very spirit of greed, and the result is mass suffering for ordinary people.
IV) The Gates of Addiction:
Cursed currencies are not only found in banks. They are found in the trade of sinful addictions. Drugs, pornography, gambling, and trafficking are billion-dollar industries fueled by unclean spirits. Every transaction becomes a spiritual exchange, opening gates for demons to claim dominion over individuals and nations.
V) Hope for God’s People:
Even in a world driven by cursed currencies, God’s children are not left defenseless. Jesus reminded us: “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth… But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven” (Matthew 6:19–20). Our hope is not in failing banks but in an eternal kingdom that cannot be shaken.
Author’s Note:
“Friends, I appreciate you staying for this brief but significant journey on this topic.” This essay has explored the reality that money itself is not the curse—but the love of it, the obsession with it, and the willingness to serve it above God. The enemy of our souls knows how easily humanity can be ensnared by wealth.
He has built entire systems designed to exploit greed and turn nations into slaves of cursed currencies. From Wall Street to backroom deals, from global banks to small-town corruption, the fingerprints of demons are everywhere in financial systems that bleed the poor and enrich the wicked. Even worse, these systems don’t just harm bodies and bank accounts—they erode souls.
By prioritizing profit over people, by choosing gain over godliness, leaders become willing pawns of the very powers Scripture warns against principalities and rulers of darkness in our world. The Christian must stand apart!
To break the curse of money’s grip, we must return to a biblical perspective: that all we have belongs to God, that wealth is a tool and not a master, and that eternal riches are far greater than temporary treasures. As Jesus declared, “Ye cannot serve God and mammon” (Matthew 6:24).

‘Friends, this message is critical in today’s age, when nations are being herded toward a beast system of economic control. The people of God must be vigilant, discerning, and uncompromising, refusing to let greed dictate their lives. For while cursed currencies may rule the world for a season, the eternal King holds all treasures in His hands.
Piece be with all, and stay prayed-up. God bless!
