Hello, and welcome to everyone. Wow, what an election! I’m sure most of you have witnessed individuals behave out in alarming ways as a result of the overwhelming conclusion. Today, I’ll try to explain what happens behind the scenes so you may have a better understanding of the talking heads in Washington. I pray that the Holy Spirit would assist you in visualizing your current reality.
The Struggle of Spirits: A Parable of Power, Resistance, and Renewal:
Throughout human history, tales of disembodied spirits—forces untethered from flesh yet bound by their will—have stirred imaginations and seeded fear. In ancient texts, these spirits often symbolize the intangible but potent forces of influence: pride, greed, wrath, and ambition.
These forces manifest in societies, shaping destinies through the vessels they inhabit. When the time comes for such powers to wane or cede their dominance, their rage and resistance often become ferocious, desperate attempts to cling to their waning dominion.
In America’s modern political landscape, the metaphor of disembodied spirits serves as a powerful lens through which we might interpret the struggles of a democratic body and the unelected bureaucrats nested and longly entrenched in governance. This metaphor also captures the tempestuous reaction to an election lost and the emergence of new leadership.
Disembodied Spirits and Their Reluctance to Relinquish Power:
The Bible speaks of spiritual battles: “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” (Ephesians 6:12, KJV). This verse underscores a timeless truth: struggles for power often transcend the physical realm, delving into unseen forces of influence and control.
In this context, disembodied spirits are not merely ghostly apparitions; they are representations of ideologies, systems, and entrenched authorities that refuse to relinquish control. These entities, untethered to any singular person, infect institutions and individuals, perpetuating cycles of self-interest and division.
When faced with the loss of power, such spirits act with desperation. They sow discord, manipulating the emotions and fears of those they influence. Like the Pharisees of Jesus’s time, who saw their grip on religious authority threatened by Christ’s teachings of liberation and truth, these forces lash out, seeking to preserve their dominion at any cost.
The Democratic Body and the Alleged Stolen Election:
Consider a democratic governing body that has wielded power on and off for decades. This body, deeply entrenched, has developed an intricate web of influence. Its members, driven by the spirit of control, begin to see themselves not as servants of the people but as architects of their destiny. Over time, the governing body becomes more insular, its decisions less reflective of the populace’s will.
When an election threatens to disrupt this equilibrium, the disembodied spirits of ambition and pride rise to defend their stronghold. Claims of fraud, conspiracies, and stolen victories flood the discourse, eroding trust in the very institutions they once upheld. The spirits manipulate their hosts to cling to power, their whispers inciting defiance and indignation.
In this scenario, the victorious Republican leadership represents a threat to these spirits’ hold. The election’s outcome is not just a political shift; it is a spiritual upheaval, challenging entrenched systems of influence. The rage of the disembodied spirits manifests through protests, smear campaigns, and attempts to delegitimize the new leadership. These are not merely human actions but the outworking of a deeper spiritual rebellion.
The Plans of the Spirits for America:
Disembodied spirits, resistant to change, often seek to divide and conquer. Their plans for the future of the American people might include:
- Division: Like the serpent in the Garden of Eden, who sowed doubt and division between Adam and Eve (Genesis 3), these spirits thrive on discord. They stoke partisan divides, making unity seem unattainable.
- Deception: False narratives become their tools, spreading misinformation to create confusion. As Jesus warned, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves” (Matthew 7:15).
- Despair: By fostering hopelessness, these spirits aim to paralyze action and erode faith in progress. The Psalmist’s lament, “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted in me?” (Psalm 42:5), reflects the emotional toll of such spiritual oppression.
What Happens When These Spirits Manifest in Individuals?
When disembodied spirits of control, fear, or pride inhabit individuals, their actions reveal the spirits’ true nature. The possessed become consumed by the desire to retain power, often at the expense of integrity or common good. Biblical examples abound:
1) King Saul: Once anointed by God, Saul’s jealousy and paranoia over David’s rise led him to consult a medium, defying God’s law (1 Samuel 28). His desperation to hold onto power ultimately led to his downfall.
2) Pharaoh of Egypt: His refusal to release the Israelites, despite devastating plagues, exemplifies the hardening of a heart under the influence of pride and control (Exodus 7-12).
In the American context, individuals influenced by these spirits might resort to manipulation, fostering division among their peers and the public. The rage of these spirits is visible in personal attacks, also fear-mongering, hair cutting, separations from spouses and family, with the possibility of starting world war 3 and the rejection of collaboration.
The Path to Renewal:
Despite their fury, disembodied spirits cannot withstand truth and humility. The Bible offers hope: “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it” (John 1:5). This truth applies both spiritually and politically.
For America to overcome the influence of such spirits, its people and leaders must:
- Embrace Humility: As Jesus taught, “Whoever wants to be first must take last place and be the servant of everyone else” (Mark 9:35). Leadership rooted in service disarms the spirits of pride and control.
- Seek Unity: Healing divisions requires intentional efforts to listen, understand, and reconcile. As Paul urged, “Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace” (Ephesians 4:3).
- Stand for Truth: Lies cannot stand in the face of truth. Jesus declared, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32). Transparency and accountability are antidotes to the deception spread by disembodied spirits.
- Rely on Faith: Ultimately, spiritual battles require spiritual weapons. Paul advises, “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes” (Ephesians 6:11).
Authors Note:
The rage of disembodied spirits, whether viewed literally or metaphorically, highlights the resistance to change and the lengths to which entrenched powers will go to retain control. In America’s political struggles, these forces manifest in division, deception, and despair. Yet, hope remains. Through humility, unity, truth, and faith, the nation can overcome these challenges and emerge stronger. “God bless you and all who you love.”
