Enduring to the end ! A look at the lessons of the presidential election of 2024

 Former president Donald Trump has gained victory in the presidential election. Many around the nation and the world are shocked and astonished at the extraordinary success.

How can a man who left Washington in disgrace in the eyes of many in January 2021 return to the highest office in the land ?

Many thought at that time that Mr Trump was politically done and burried , here we are with him as the president elect .


How did Mr Trump do it ? He had a goal, the presidency and he persevered until the very end. Mr Trump was undeterred and unrelenting. He had set his face like flint and basically said no matter what comes my way, I will persevere until the very end. I remember reading an article after some negative event and Mr Trump saying he is as motivated as ever to run to race and win the biggest political prize in the world . 


On the way to his presidential election triumph Mr Trump faced lawsuits, criminal cases, assassinations attempts,  being abandoned by many in his own party after the  January 6 debacle, blamed for Republican losses in the 2022 congressional elections and yet he persevered until the very end and has achieved the greatest political comeback in the history of this country. Thought to be politically dead and has returned stronger than ever, with more power than before because he persevered to the end .

We can say what we want about president Trump, but if we as Christians were as persevering as he was to the presidency we will for certain inherit heaven.

Christians nowdays have no persevering faith, we are easily bogged down, easily discouraged.  At the slighest adversity we want to quit the faith, we make excuses as to why we shouldn't keep going. And yet God is looking for " soldiers" who will fight the good fight of faith . The Christian life is akin to a political campaign, a race and only those " who overcome will get to seat with Jesus on His throne as He overcame and have sat down with His Father on His throne." Book of revelation 

As Christians, we are called to persevere no matter what. Sickness comes ? Persevere. Family problems? Persevere. Immigration problems? Persevere. Financial problems? Persevere. Mental health issues? Persevere. Sin problems ? Persevere in Christ until the very end, the glorious end.

Like president Trump, as Christians we should let nothing, no difficulties, no power, no angels, no depth, no height to separate us from the love of God. 


Nothing less than persevering faith will take us to the greatest prize in the universe, the crown of life. The more we overcome obstacles through the power of God, the stronger we will become and the more certain our victory in the end. Yes, we will face dark days, yes we will have mountains to climb, sins to struggle with, negative thoughts to overcome,  prisons to come out of, Satan's bullets to escape, but the more the difficulties, the closer we should draw to  Christ and as we abide in His love, He will make us His elect, a wonder to the universe, the greatest comeback story in the universe. From sin to righteousness, from sinner to saint! Let us persevere until the very end. God bless

A new Constantine: Will Trump become more religious ?

 On October 28, 312 AD, the battle of the Milvian bridge took place between Roman Emperors Constantine I and Maxentius. Rome was in the midst of a civil war . Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to become the sole ruler of the Roman empire. But something interesting happened before the battle, Constantine who was a pagan at the time claimed to have received a vision from God. On October 27 with the armies preparing for battle, Constantine claimed to had a vision which led him to fight under the protection of  the Christian God. According to the message of Eusebius of Ceasarea, around noon, Constantine saw a luminous cross in the sky and under it the inscription in Greek," in this sign thou shalt conquer. " Constantine also claimed to had a dream in which Christ commanded him to use the sign of the cross against his enemies. Constantine became the first emperor to convert to Christianity.  He ended the policy of persecuting Christians and in 313...

The difficulties of love

 Love is a beautiful thing. Love makes life worth living. Love is best thing in the universe because God is love 😍. We all want love, we all want to be loved and many of us want someone to love. Love is very precious indeed. We sing about love, we write about it and we make movies about it. And yet love is the most difficult thing to find in this earth. It is easier to find diamonds and gold than to find true love. Easier maybe to find the lost city of Atlantis than to find genuine love. Many people have simply given up on love. They see the idea of loving and having someone to love them as fables for unwise and inexperienced children. Love is rare indeed. Why is it so hard to love or find love 🤔? The easiest answer is because we are imperfect. Being imperfect means we are broken, unable to perform the function we were made to do. Come with me on a journey of the difficulties of love. Imagine you meet someone, a man, a woman, the " love of your life." The woman is beautiful...

Second Beast of Revelation Revealed part 1

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Revelation 13:11 This prophecy speaks about a nation rising at the end of time that will seem to represent Christ but will actually be against Him. In this small study, we will reveal that nation. Below are some symbolic terms in prophecy needed in order to follow this study. Beast : a political entity, a state or empire Earth : symbolizes a place that is not heavily populated, unlike the sea. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues."  Revelation 17:15 Horns : Horns represent kings and kingdoms, or governments. Daniel 8:21 Speak : is how a nation create laws, a nation speaks by its laws So now that we have these definitions, let us go and see which nation on earth that the Bible speaks of during the end of times. There is only one super power nation coming out from an...
