May 2025Without question a shake-up of the world is underway.
On the international front, Klaus Schwab recently stepped down abruptly from the World Economic Forum, a globalist body athirst for power and control. Adding to his sudden resignation, shockwaves were sent when the delegation from the United States went before the United Nations General Assembly to denounce the “2030 Agenda” which dictates the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals. These globalist goals would usher in sweeping control and usurp national sovereignty for the sake of what some call “the global good.”
Additionally, the World Health Organization was forced to enact drastic cutbacks due to the United States withholding funds from their globalist coffers. Other nations are also bucking against this body which has demonstrated a lust for control. They desire the ability to usurp authority over the world whenever they determine a health “emergency” is necessary. Such actions strike at the heart of national sovereignty. The WHO quickly announced that the terms to a Pandemic Treaty have been agreed. Its fate is yet to be determined.
The United Nations, a globalist body, is also on the brink of electing a new Secretary-General. The term of Antonio Guterres comes to an end in 2026. Due to its adherence to diversity, equity and inclusion, it is speculated that for the first time ever, a leftist, pro-abortion woman will be elected to lead this organization in 2026. Time will tell.
Further shaking the world, the Trump Administration dealt a critical blow to globalism with massive cuts to a number of international organizations. This was accompanied by another blow: removing the U.S. from the Paris Climate Treaty. Additional actions are also shaking the proverbial apple cart of those espousing one-world governance.
The new administration has also shaken every cabinet level agency with a promotion of national sovereignty and self-dependence rather than reliance on other nations for critical needs. This has resulted in a shake-up in areas pertaining to our nation’s military returning to a state of lethal force rather than a model for diversity, equity and inclusion. A shake-up is happening in the area of energy to make this nation independent from foreign suppliers. A shake-up is happening in healthcare restoring common sense and bringing the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals back within our borders.
To protect the citizens of the U.S. a shake-up is occurring at our borders, prohibiting entry to those seeking to come illegally and also from those who attempt to undermine this Constitutional Republic. The shake-up at our borders is impacting nations around the world.
There is also a shake-up taking place in our Justice Department as it is no longer being used as a political weapon against those who stand for life. A shake-up is occurring in the area of education seeking to return this function from the federal government to the states. Additional areas of shake-up are happening within the Department of the Treasury, Department of the Interior, Department of Labor, Homeland Security, HUD, Veteran’s Affairs, Health and Human Services, DOGE, etc. No stone is being left unturned.
As momentous as the shake-up is from these events, nothing compares to the shake-up God has brought about in judgment of this world. The shake-ups have occurred not only in the past, but will also take place in the future.
God shook-up the world during the time of Noah. “And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” (Genesis 6:5). A further description of the evilness of mankind is accentuated just a few verses later. “The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.” (Genesis 6:11). As a result of man’s wickedness, God brought judgment upon the earth with a universal global flood. All mankind that disregarded God’s warning suffered His wrath upon their insistence of a sin-filled life and full rejection of God. Scripture clearly points this out, “And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.” (Genesis 7:23).
This was a shake-up like never seen before. But another shake-up was just around the corner.
God was clear in His instructions to mankind to be fruitful and to multiply and to fill the earth (see Genesis 9:1). However, in defiance of God, man wanted to make a name for himself and as such, designed a tower to reach to the heavens. Due to man’s sin and rebellion, God shook-up the world by confounding the languages and scattering the people.
Numerous other illustrations of shake-ups are revealed in the Scriptures. Looking ahead, there is coming a future shake-up that will swiftly bring Divine judgement. “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” (II Peter 3:10).
This world is being reserved for judgment by fire. Those who know Jesus as Savior will escape this Divine shake-up. But those who refuse the free gift of salvation offered now will suffer greatly for eternity. The consequences for this shake-up can be avoided. It is critical that each individual would learn from God’s shake-ups in the past to avoid the shake-up to come.
“…behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” (II Corinthians 6:2b).
