CFP 100 YEAR VISION CANADA: CANADIAN SPIRITUAL VISION
Since Canadians still are to believe in God, who is named at the start of our Canadian Constitution, then it is legal and righteous to refer to The Bible for spiritual direction for our country from God.
In the Book of Ephesians, Chapter 6, verse 12, we are told:
"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."
This insightful warning to Paul the apostle, from Jesus Christ's spirit, has been ignored by most Christian Canadians and mankind for centuries...
Until Canadians awaken our spiritual awareness, we will never see how important this verse is to our future as a nation of righteous peoples. We should try to recognize who these spiritual powers are and how they affect us and our leaders.
When Jesus states we are battling "Principalities", He is telling us to become aware of these "Principalities" through our personal spirit, so that Jesus can guide us on how "Principalities" can be overcome by human beings. "Principalities" are spiritual realms occupied by spirits dwelling within our carnal natures that influence the thoughts of vulnerable humans who have weak spiritual awareness and discernment of this invisible dimension encompassing this world.
Our battle with "Powers" occur when humans seek spiritual guidance, which is not of Jesus' heavenly spiritual realm. These "Powers" can transmit thoughts into our minds and thus influence our feelings that trigger our emotions. Through our thoughts and imaginations we are directed into evil agendas. In truth, they rule and control the armies and authorities in many countries around the world today. Our human spirits of Godly love and human carnality are split apart by these "Powers". Thus our human spirits spread anger and fear throughout the world.
The "Rulers of the Darkness" of this world keep us in ignorance and blindness to spiritual manipulations. Thereby, they create human conflict and war, just as our bloody history reveals to us today. These "Dark" evil spirits take control over the minds of men and women everywhere. (For example: MACHISMO is one of these "Rulers of Darkness". ) Nowadays they are influencing world leaders into discord similar to the time preceeding both world wars of the last century, in ways that will be very difficult to overcome by both spirit-filled and spiritless people and leaders. The onslaughts in present times should be seen as potential precursors to much wider violence within humanity.
"Spiritual Wickedness" in high places, warns us against trusting the spiritual influences and motivations guiding our world leaders. Many are under Satan's influence because Satan is invisible to most of the world. Self-destructing war has always been a favourite tactic of Satan and today it remains his most effective weapon against humanity.
1 Peter 2:5 -Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ."
Peter's message is that we need to increase our spiritual knowledge and understanding, and thus become a spiritual priesthood capable of defeating the evil spiritual influences tempting our carnal natures. We should sacrifice our time and attention, to discern how we can most effectively transmit Jesus' "SPIRITUAL LOVE" throughout mankind.
This spirituality could bring a much greater destiny for Canadians. But to achieve this, we must volunteer to serve our constitutionally recognized God and Lord, Jesus Christ, through earnestly inviting his Holy Spirit to dwell within our human spirit, and thus grant access to his spiritual power, which we need daily to help us overcome our carnal spirit's evil and wicked spiritual natures, which we blindly allow to direct our minds.
This "Canadian Spiritual Awakening" is my "Spiritual Vision for Canada" in this century.
God Bless Canada.
