Government leaders seek intellectual answers to spiritual problems.

“Now in the second year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was so troubled that his sleep left him.” Daniel 2:1

A dream that troubles a person in their spirit, to the point that they are not able to sleep, is what we call nightmares nowadays. With all of the lavish flatteries that Nebuchadnezzar poured on people, and of all the indoctrination that he required of those who worked for him, none of that could help him. The nightmare of Nebuchadnezzar was a spiritual one, not something that could be resolved through smooth words nor through the knowledge that comes through indoctrination.

“Then the king gave the command to call the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans to tell the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king. “And the king said to them, “I have had a dream, and my spirit is anxious to know the dream.” Daniel 2:2-3

The magicians, astrologers, sorcerers, and the Chaldeans were those that were exposed to the king’s smooth words, flatteries, and indoctrination. Those are who Nebuchadnezzar called to reveal his dream. They knew if they wanted to stay in the king’s blessings, they would have to fit the revelation of the dream into what they were taught to be correct as a servant of Babylon, as a servant to Nebucahdnezzar. Pleasing God was far from their mind, and they wouldn’t find the answer to a spiritual problem through magic and sorceries, nor by looking to the stars, nor through the most loyal of the Babylonian Empire. Nevertheless, the king called them and there they stood, before the king.

Today, presidents of nations from all around the world depend on advisers to make known to them a solution to what is troubling them within their spirit. Those advisers are nothing more than magicians and sorcerers, astrologers, and the most loyal of the president’s agenda. For example, global warming is troubling the spirit of leaders around the world, and they are depending on scientists and loyalists to the global agenda to have the answer to the problem. One revelation that they will not be able to give is that global warming is the Fourth Plague of Revelations 16:8-9. They do not want to fall from the flatteries of governing leaders by deviating from their indoctrination. Their indoctrination is that there is no God who created this world, there is no need for repentance through Jesus Christ, and that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than good feelings.

Intellectual advisers suffer the consequences of failure but rewarded for rational solutions.

“Then the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic, “O king, live forever! Tell your servants the dream, and we will give the interpretation.” Daniel 2:4

In Babylon, Aramaic was the common language of administration and daily communication. Aramaic was used for official business, such as official record keeping, and legal texts. When people were indoctrinated, they had to learn the Aramaic language in order to have the approval of the king. Those called before king Nebuchadnezzar spoke in Aramaic, not wanted to be offensive to him. Today, the advisers of presidents around the world speak in the language that the global leaders can understand, the language rooted in atheism that relies on human rationale to solve the world’s problems. That is the language of the beast that gives people what to say, do, think, and feel.

Right away, the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans wanted the king to reveal his dream to them, then they would give the interpretation. They were relying on a firm foundation of a fact-based and rational solution to the spiritual anguish that Nebuchadnezzar was feeling. Nebuchadnezzar had different ideas.

“The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, “My decision is firm: if you do not make known the dream to me, and its interpretation, you will be cut in pieces, and your houses will be made an ash heap.” Daniel 2:5

King Nebuchadnezzar wanted a spiritual revelation to come through those whom he flattered and indoctrinated to the contrary of spiritual inspiration. If the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans were not able to reveal the nightmare that the king had, then they would be cut in pieces, and their houses would be made an ash heap. Today, the world is plagued with all sorts of problems and will be even more so at the coming of the events of the Seven Trumpets of Revelations 8, 9, and 11, the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10, and the Seven Plagues of Revelations 16. World leaders demand solutions that the advisers of this world are not capable of giving. The solution to the nightmares of this world is found only through God the Creator, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. If they don’t find the solution through Christ Jesus, they will be “cut in pieces and their houses made an ash heap”, as described in Revelations 19:11-18.

“However, if you tell the dream and its interpretation, you will receive from me gifts, rewards, and great honor. Therefore tell me the dream and its interpretation.” Daniel 2:6

In that verse, we see again how Nebuchadnezzar thought that gifts, rewards, and great honor could motivate people to perform according to his expectations. He promised many things that relate to esteem-building, dignity boosting, self-respect enhancing, confidence enlargement, etc. if the solution to his nightmare was revealed. We live in a world today that calls the self-esteem of a person the building block of people. That is why they do not want to hear that we are all sinners in need of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of unbelief and the resulting sin. They pour on people honor of every type, self-respect, dignity, promises of financial prosperity, and everything else to boost a person’s self-esteem. However, today’s culture is not esteemed nor given honor and dignity for living for God, through Jesus Christ, in the presence of the Holy Spirit. Today’s culture is rewarded for living for the beast who gives them uncanny knowledge and heightened intuition by giving them what to think, feel, say, and do. Those in authority demand people to know, as they say, “…tell me the dream and its interpretation.“

The employment world, corporate world, as well as political world requires the uncanny knowledge and heightened intuition that comes by the beast that forms thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and feelings. “Meaningful” and “gainful” employment along with social approval are all part of building up a person’s esteem, dignity, and confidence.

Intellectual advisers unable to reveal the spiritual dream.

“They answered again and said, “Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will give its interpretation.” Daniel 2:7

The magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans insisted that it was not possible to know Nebuchadnezzar’s nightmare without first having data that would enable them to analyze his dream. Today, the advisers to presidents of nations around the world are not able to solve the problems of this world’s nightmares without having information to analyze the situation. Government leaders everywhere are now relying on artificial intelligence, data centers, “co-pilots” and every other sort of technological help to solve the problems of this world. Beyond that, that rely on the beast that has power over physiology to give inspire them with solutions by giving them what to speak, do, think, and feel.

Today’s governing leaders rely on every sort of informational tool except the spiritual knowledge that is given within the pages of the Bible. They are driving the source of that information into extinction as they scorn belief in God, scorn the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and scorn the presence of the Holy Spirit, as described in Revelations 12. The spiritual solution to the nightmares of governing leaders is not found in artificial intelligence, and definitely not found in the beast that wants to give you what to think and do. There is quite a list of fulfilled prophecies since around 1940^s, for all the world to see, and are intellectually acknowledged, but they are “swept under the rug” because they are Bible prophecy. Click for a list of those prophecies and scroll towards the middle of the page.

“The king answered and said, “I know for certain that you would gain time, because you see that my decision is firm:” Daniel 2:8

King Nebuchadnezzar expressed that he knew for certain that the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans were stalling for time. They knew the king would not change his mind about wanting a revelation to be given about what his nightmare was, without being told what the dream was about.

Today, it would seem that the advisers of governing leaders are stalling for time in finding a solution to this world’s nightmares. For example, the intellectual community of advisers seems to be stalling in finding an answer to global warming. The more they wait, the more sever the effect of global warming becomes. They are not stalling; they really do not have an answer to that global nightmare. The more powerful the United Nations become as the undisputed one world government, the more intense the effect of global warming becomes, “And men were scorched with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God who has power over these plagues; and they did not repent and give Him glory.” Revelations 16:9

The intellectual community of advisers will also seem to be stalling when the judgment of God becomes more severe on this world. They will continue to go unsolved as time progresses forward. The judgment of God progressively moves forward without any solution. The judgment of God is within the events of the Seven Trumpets of Revelations 8, 9, and 11, the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10, and the Seven Plagues of Revelations 16. The solution is a spiritual answer, turn to God through Jesus Christ, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

“But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14

 “…if you do not make known the dream to me, there is only one decree for you! For you have agreed to speak lying and corrupt words before me till the time has changed. Therefore tell me the dream, and I will know that you can give me its interpretation.” Daniel 2:9

King Nebuchadnezzar insisted that the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans make known to him what he dreamed, which was more like a nightmare in that he was troubled in spirit and was unbale sleep. The king decided that if his advisers would not reveal his nightmare, there was only one option for them…death. Nebuchadnezzar made up his mind that his advisers were withholding information from him, that they conspired against him to speak lies to keep from resolving the king’s nightmare, and that they were speaking corrupt words that intended to sabotage the Babylonian Empire. The king reasoned that his advisers were stalling until the whole thing blew over and he lost interest in resolving the nightmare. The king was looking for only one response from his advisers, “…tell me the dream, and I will know that you can give me its interpretation.”

The dream of the king was laid upon his spirit by the Lord, and there was only one key that could unlock and reveal the what the king had dreamed…the key of the Spirit.

We live in a world today where governing authorities replace one adviser or one group of advisers constantly. Advisers thought to be sabotaging the administration of a president are put in the public eye as liars, corrupt, obstructing official business etc. In many countries, those accused of subverting the administration in power die of “mysterious” causes, “suicide”, unexplained illnesses, etc. Even today, with every change of administration, there comes in a whole new group of advisers to advise along “party lines”. However, none of those advisers, working within the government of the beast, are able to resolve the spiritual nightmares that confronts this present world system. It would be treasonous for them to say Jesus is the Christ and governors of the global government are not. Without spiritual insight, they are not able to unlock and reveal the prophecies of the Bible.

I wonder how many people are saying that the intellectuals of today are not doing enough to resolve the nightmare of global warming? How many are saying that those advisers are liars and corrupt? The truth be known, they really don’t know how to solve the nightmare of climate change because the solution is written in the Bible. Our Lord gives a spiritual solution that is not included in the minds of presidential advisers, intellectuals, databases, technology, artificial intelligence, and especially not in the beast that gives people what to think, do, say, and feel. Salvation is not in intellect and databases, but is found in the Spirit, through Jesus Christ, “…and they blasphemed the name of God who has power over these plagues; and they did not repent and give Him glory.” Revelations 16:9

“The Chaldeans answered the king, and said, “There is not a man on earth who can tell the king’s matter; therefore no king, lord, or ruler has ever asked such things of any magician, astrologer, or Chaldean.” Daniel 2:10

There is no man on earth who can reveal spiritual matters through worldly intellectual data, “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” 1 Corinthians 2:14 Even today, there is not an intellectual or government adviser that has been asked to interpret spiritual matters, especially relating to the prophecies of the Bible.

Those who live and govern for the beast that gives them what to speak, do, think, and feel are serving the beast that has “…opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” Revelations 13:6-8

“It is a difficult thing that the king requests, and there is no other who can tell it to the king except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.” Daniel 2:11

The magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans realized that it was not humanly possible to reveal the spiritual dream of king Nebuchadnezzar. They realized, in an insincere way, that doing what the king was asking of them could only be done through a non-human source.

Today, the intellectuals and advisers of government leaders realize that solving spiritual nightmares is not always in their hands. As the heat of global warming increases from year to year, and climate change becomes more unmanageable, they are not able to reveal the spiritual solution. That’s because they deny God the Creator, discards the need for Christ Jesus who forgives unbelief, and they do not want the Holy Spirit to be part of who they are.

What the government advisers depend on is something that has power over physiology to give them what to think, do, say, and feel. They depend on that empowerment for the salvation of humanity and planet. They serve the beast that gives breath/life to the image of the beast to speak by speaking and living through people. By what they are given to say and do, they are conformed to the mark, name, number of the beast. However, because of serving the beast, devastation comes to this present world system through the events of the Seven Trumpets of Revelations 8, 9, and 11, the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10, and the Seven Plagues of Revelations 16.

If we want to know the interpretation of spiritual matters, we have to come to God, who is Spirit and speaks to us through the spirit. He has given to us the Holy Spirit by our faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus says, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God… That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” John 3:3, 6 “Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Revelations 19:10 If we want to know where the world is within prophecy we only have to see where Jesus is within the world.

“For this reason the king was angry and very furious, and gave the command to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.” Daniel 2:12

The magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans became useless to king Nebuchadnezzar because they could not interpret a spiritual matter. The spiritual matter being the dream that God laid upon his heart. Nebuchadnezzar became very furious and ordered all of the wise men of Babylon to be destroyed.

The day is coming when government advisers will become useless because they will not be able to see a solution to the social and economic chaos coming to this world. The Lord renders their wisdom useless during the events of the Seven Trumpets of Revelations 8, 9, and 11, the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10, and the Seven Plagues of Revelations 16. Seeking their advice will become obsolete, as the Holy Spirit says, “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.” 1 Corinthians 1:18-19 quoted from Isaiah 29:14

“So the decree went out, and they began killing the wise men; and they sought Daniel and his companions, to kill them.” Daniel 2:13

Daniel and his companions were among all the wise men to be killed. As we remember, the king molded Daniel and his companions into exactly what he wanted them to be. He built up their esteem, dignity, and confidence by the flatteries of giving them his delicacies to eat and his wine to drink. They were eating and drinking exactly what was prepared for the king to eat. On top of that, the king put them through a three-year indoctrination program to conform them to the Babylonian culture. None of that mattered and the king ordered for them to be killed regardless of grooming them to be exactly what he wanted them to be. “And the king appointed for them a daily provision of the king’s delicacies and of the wine which he drank, and three years of training for them, so that at the end of that time they might serve before the king.” Daniel 1:5 Click for post on Daniel 1. Daniel and his companions were perfect in every way to the king, “…young men in whom there was no blemish, but good-looking, gifted in all wisdom, possessing knowledge and quick to understand, who had ability to serve in the king’s palace, and whom they might teach the language and literature of the Chaldeans.” Daniel 1:4

Today, self-esteem is considered to be the basic building block of a well-functioning and emotionally and mentally healthy person. Today’ culture puts a lot of emphasis on self-esteem, dignity, self-respect and honor for each person. They are indoctrinated into the community culture, which much of that is seen by people who embrace the “Sustainable Development Goals” of the United Nations. They are also being indoctrinated by the beast giving them what to think, feel, say, and do. By what they are given to say and do, they are conformed to the mark, name, number of the beast. Even though they are being molded into exactly what the culture of the beast expects them to be, when they are deemed to be of no further use, they will be discarded like trash.

Our Lord builds us up in the Holy Spirit, to make us the temple of the Holy Spirit, and He never ever will discard us, but gives us eternal life, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” Joh 3:16 “Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 2:4-5
