The Bible warns of a coming figure who will oppose God, exalt himself, and exercise great authority. Scripture calls him the man of sin, the son of perdition, and describes him as the Antichrist. His appearance will be part of the final conflict between God’s Kingdom and Satan’s rebellion. Believers must not become obsessed with identifying him but should remain firmly rooted in Christ and His truth. Scriptural Readings for the Day 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 (KJV) “3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” 1 John 2:18 (KJV) “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.” 2 Thessalonians 2:8 (KJV) “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.” Prayer Father, keep me from deception concerning the events of the last days. Help me to remain faithful to Jesus Christ and never compromise my allegiance to Him. Amen.
The Bible teaches that the final events will involve nations, kingdoms, and systems coming together in ways that will affect the whole world. Scripture points toward a future period of unprecedented global authority and control under the Antichrist. However, believers should be careful not to label every modern political or economic development as the fulfilment of a specific prophecy. Our responsibility is to watch, discern, and remain faithful to Christ. Scriptural Readings for the Day Revelation 13:7, 16-17 (KJV) “And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Luke 21:36 (KJV) “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.” Prayer Lord Jesus, give me discernment as I watch the developments of this world. Keep me from fear and deception, and help me to remain faithful to You regardless of what comes. Amen.
Knowledge is not always a blessing when separated from the fear of God. As human understanding and technology increase, many become proud, trusting in themselves while rejecting their Creator. Knowledge may expand the mind while hardening the heart when it is used to exalt humanity and replace God’s Word with human reasoning. When Moses stood before Pharaoh, Egypt’s magicians imitated some of God’s signs, but their false power could not overcome Him. Their imitation did not lead to repentance, and Pharaoh’s heart remained hardened. Likewise, many today use knowledge without reverence for God. They may study creation while refusing to acknowledge the Creator. Such learning can produce pride, trust in human ability, and rejection of Scripture. Knowledge without the fear of God cannot give salvation or true wisdom. Let us seek knowledge that produces humility, repentance, wisdom, and obedience. True understanding begins by recognizing that every good gift and every truth come from the Lord. Scriptural Readings for the Day Daniel 12:4 (KJV) “But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” Exodus 7:11–13 (KJV) “Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also with their enchantments. For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods. And he hardened Pharaoh’s heart, that he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.” Proverbs 1:7 (KJV) “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Romans 1:22–25 (KJV) “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man… Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.” Prayer Father, as knowledge increases, keep my heart humble and dependent upon You. Help me never to let human learning, science, or technology turn me from Your truth. Give me discernment to recognize pride and pursue wisdom rooted in the fear of the Lord. May all I learn lead me to worship, obey, and draw nearer to You. Amen.
In these last days, many in the church are serving their bellies and Mammon rather than the Lord Jesus Christ. This message confronts the dangerous prosperity gospel that pressures people to pursue money at all costs — even through dubious means — while souls are lost and the true Gospel of the Kingdom is sidelined. Let the wise take note. Please share this video with someone. God bless you, Brother Hosanna David.
