The Prosperity of the Wicked
Psalm 73
- We all have this longing to be taken care of, to be blessed, to prosper, to succeed.
- And it can be very heart-breaking when we see the wicked prospering, while we are beset by challenges and difficulties beyond our ability to control.
- It’s like, where is God? Why isn’t He helping us?
- That’s the plea of the Psalmist in verse 1-16.
- Where is God, as he sees the wicked prosper, and he himself is in despair?
- Not only do we witness the prosperity of the wicked, but we ourselves are chastened daily, and we receive punishment and correction.
- Hebrews 12:5-8
Examples of the Wicked Prospering
- Individuals: Bill Gates
- Richest man in the world, according to Forbes w/ a net-worth of $79.2 billion
- Bill Gates is on record stating that he wants to reduce the population by 15%.
- Here is Gates in his own words: “there 6.8 billion in the world today, that’s headed up to about 9 billion. If we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we can lower that by perhaps about 10 to 15%.”
- How does that even make sense?
- A Bill Gates apologist tries to explain: “ Gates thinks thatvaccines and better healthcare have the net effect of reducing population growth because people have fewer children when they expect them to survive.”
- So in other words, people will use more birth control and abort babies more frequently if they think they’re existing children will survive.
- Here in America, babies get 26 doses of vaccines before the age of one!
- Did God design the human body to need 26 doses of vaccines to survive? Is that how we were created?
- Do you know what’s in those vaccines? Aluminum, antiobiotics, Formaldehyde, Monosodium glutamate(MSG), thimerosal (mercury-containing preservative), which by the way, is in many flu shots. Polysorbate 80, bovine extract (type of animal, cow, buffalo, deer, etc),
OTHER EXAMPLES OF THE WICKED PROSPERING
- Corporations: Pharmaceuticals.
Big Pharma spends billions of dollars just in lobbying expenses.
In 2013 alone, Big Pharma invested $3.5 billion dollars into marketing drugs online, on TV, radio and other media.
Johnson & Johnson made $67 billion in sales in 2012,
Pfizer made $58.9 billion,
Merck made $47.3 billion.
That’s just 3 out of the many hundreds and hundreds of of big pharmaceutical companies.
- Other Corporations: chemical food companies, Monsanto.
- Monsanto creates genetically modified organisms or GMO foods.
Genesis 1:
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Any artificial modification of the food supply is against God’s perfect plan of creation.
This include fluoride in our water. We’re literally poisoning our own water supply.
So these are examples of corporations that have done exceedingly wickedly.
They are harming people on a mass scale, entire countries, generations, and populations are being destroyed by wicked corporations run amuck.
Another example of wickedness in high places is:
- Governments:
Ephesians 6:12 says: “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.”
Barack Obama, John Kerry, the Democratic Party, the Republican Party and all the RHINOS come to mind who are destroying this nation and taking advantage of the people.
- Governments tax the people beyond what is justified for their wasteful and wicked programs.
- UN Population Fund which promotes abortion in every nation
- The Global Equality Fund which promotes sodomy in America and foreign countries.
So there’s a lot of wickedness in our government
CHURCHES – a lot of churches thrive because they cater to the wickedness or the stupidity of its members or for filthy lucre’s sake.
First Congregational Church of Walla Walla, another big church in our area.
FCC Walla Walla is part of a bigger organization called the United Church of Christ.
Here is the United Church of Christ website: “No matter who – no matter what – no matter where we are on life’s journey – notwithstanding race, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, class or creed – we all belong to God and to one worldwide community of faith.”
- Celebrities. The demon-possessed Miley Cyrus, the whore Kim Kardashian, sodomite Kate Perry. Trinity of Evil right there …
But what is their end of all these wicked unless they repent and believe in Jesus Christ? (if they’re not reprobates and it’s already too late for them, which I suspect is the case for many of them).
Revelation 20:
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
Psalm 37:38:
But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
Psalm 94:23
And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God shall cut them off.
Psalm 73:19
How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
Speaking of the whore of Babylon in Revelation, who I believe is America, if the End Times are to come in our day:
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought … Revelation 20:17
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.
