SATURDAY, JUNE 30
Scripture: Daniel 11:32,36,37

Daniel 11:32,36,37 says, “Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits …Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done. He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all.” Here we see that the soil that produces the antichrist is, in fact, homosexual sin. Perhaps God’s strong judgments are rooted in the ultimate mockery of creation – rejection of the Creator for the creature! Rejecting the Creator for the creature is the soil for the antichrist spirit that rages against God’s purpose and plan for nations. If the church bows and accepts the issue of homosexual marriage, they bless evil and ensure judgment. The issue of homosexual marriage is about destroying the freedom of the church to preach the truth of God’s Word. Once homosexual marriage becomes law, the church can be sued for discrimination. God is the one who discriminates – He judges it! It is our job to warn people and tell them. There are churches who are under assault for speaking truth. Can we deny the Christ who called us? I do not think so. Verse 32 says, “Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.” And those people will take action. The action we are to take is to pray God’s Hand on the perpetrators, “command victories for Jacob.” And that command means biblical affliction on the unrighteous to remove them so that freedom can prevail. God is ready to do creative miracles. Are we ready to do the prayer-battle that is required to see them in action? That is the real question we have to answer in this hour.
