America had the finest security and surveillance system in the world.

“Men of Arvad with your army were on your walls all around, and the men of Gammad were in your towers; They hung their shields on your walls all around; They made your beauty perfect.” Ezekiel 27:11

America had always seemed to have impenetrable walls with open borders and a steady flow of welcomed and edifying immigration. With that, the towers of security were strong to give the American people an invincible sense of safety and security. The American military was able to ward off any potential threats. What America doesn’t have now are walls to keep out spiritual corruption and vigilance in the Holy Spirit. We are warned, “Be sober, be vigilant: because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.” 1 Peter 5:8-9

Today, the walls of America are broken, overrun with multitudes of illegal immigration as spiritual corruption fills the land. The security towers of America are broken from all angles. There is constant election interference, cell phone apps used as spying tools, spy balloons spend days over the United States, routine cyber-crime, theft of important personal data, routine internal spying among government officials, breaches of government emails, classified document leaks, Wiki Leaks, and the list goes on and on. And the biggest of all security breaches is a television in every home around the world.

The only security any of us have is what is found at the Cross where Jesus Christ gave His life to put our sin in remission. Through Him, we are given the Holy Spirit, and He is the guarantee of our eternal security in the New Jerusalem, “In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,  who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.” Ephesians 1:13-14

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
Revelation 2:24-25, 3:11
