So now, in light of the article that I wrote, titled “Canada’s Hypocritical Retaliation: Decades of Exploiting the U.S. and Now Crying Foul,” I cannot help but reflect on the larger spiritual battle at play. We see unprecedented global tensions, and while standing up for what’s right is crucial, the question lingers: Are we at the edge of something far bigger than an economic or political dispute?
The rider on the red horse in Revelation 6 is coming at some point, and only Jesus has the authority to open the second seal, which releases global war. We see in Scripture that sin and the human heart play a role in God's judgment—like when David numbered Israel, leading to disaster (2 Samuel 24, 1 Chronicles 21). Is America at a similar crossroads?
With tensions flaring between the U.S., Canada, Mexico, the EU, Ukraine, Russia, NATO, Israel, Hamas, Iran, Egypt, China, and North Korea, it's difficult to discern whether we are already in the first seal (the white horse) or on the verge of the second seal (the red horse). If the first seal has been opened, then global war is inevitable, but if it has not, then we still have time to seek peace and divine intervention.
The First Seal – Has It Already Been Opened?
The rider on the white horse (Revelation 6:2) has been widely debated:
Some say it represents Jesus spreading righteousness, but Jesus is the one opening the seals, and Revelation 19 clearly distinguishes Him from this rider.
Others argue it is the Antichrist, yet this rider only carries a bow, not a sword or arrows, and he conquers through authority rather than war.
Another interpretation suggests this represents a system of deception, possibly a false peace or globalist movement that conquers without traditional warfare.
If this seal has been opened, then the next step is war (the red horse). If it has not, then we still have an opportunity to avert immediate global conflict.
The Second Seal – Are We on the Edge of World War?
The rider on the red horse (Revelation 6:3-4) is given power to take peace from the earth and cause people to kill each other.
Right now, we see wars and rumors of wars:
US-Canada-Mexico trade wars could escalate into something much worse.
Russia-Ukraine-NATO tensions are growing more unstable.
Israel is preparing for war against Hamas, Iran, and Egypt.
China is making aggressive moves toward Taiwan and Australia.
North Korea is unusually quiet, which often means they are planning something.
If the red horse is about to ride, then retaliating against Canada too aggressively could play right into the enemy’s hands, pushing the world over the edge into war.
The Role of Sin – What Gives Jesus the Right to Open the Red Horse Seal?
The story of David numbering Israel (2 Samuel 24, 1 Chronicles 21) shows how sin in the heart of a leader can lead to divine judgment. One passage says God was moved against Israel, another says Satan incited David. The truth? Sin was already present, so both could be true—Satan influenced David, and God allowed judgment.
What does this mean for America?
If America is acting in pride, trusting in economic or military strength, we may be opening the door for judgment.
If Canada is being deceived, then our battle is spiritual, not just economic.
If we retaliate with arrogance, are we pushing ourselves into destruction?
Is America in Biblical Prophecy?
Many wonder why America is not mentioned outright in Bible prophecy. Possible reasons:
1. America is destroyed or weakened before the Tribulation.
2. America becomes part of the Antichrist system (absorbed into a globalist empire).
3. America exists but is irrelevant in the final events.
Given our current situation, one wrong decision could accelerate America’s downfall and push the world closer to global war.
Should the U.S. Retaliate Against Canada?
We must ask:
Is this righteous justice, or arrogant pride?
Will this escalate global conflict?
Is this playing into Satan’s plan, or is it standing for truth?
If we can convince Canada and Mexico that the true enemy is Satan, not each other, then perhaps we can unite rather than divide. What if America, Canada, and Mexico came together to resist the forces of deception?
The Antichrist Leaves Some Areas Alone – Can We Be One of Them?
Revelation 12:14 speaks of a place where people flee from the Antichrist's control. Could it be that certain nations resist his reign? If America, Canada, and Mexico unite under God instead of dividing under Satan, could we become a refuge?
Many in Canada and Mexico may not be Christians, but many are, and the Lord can give them ears to hear. If Trump and American leaders can make the case that we need to resist deception together, we might have a chance to avoid war and destruction.
A Call for a National and International Day of Prayer.
This is not just about economics and trade—this is about a spiritual battle that could determine the fate of our nations.
We must call on:
Trump and U.S. leaders to seek God’s wisdom.
Canadian and Mexican leaders to realize Satan is trying to divide us.
Christians everywhere to pray for discernment, protection, and unity.
If we act in arrogance, we may trigger war. If we act in wisdom, we may avert it.
Final Call to Action.
President @realDonaldTrump, the time to stand strong yet wise is now. Push back against unfairness, but do so with humility and prayer. Canada and Mexico must see the greater spiritual war at hand. Satan wants us divided—God wants us united against him.
This is a moment in history where we must decide: Will we escalate toward the red horse of war, or will we seek divine intervention and unite against deception?
The future of our nations may depend on it.
May The Grace, Mercy, And Peace Of The Lord Jesus Christ Be With You All.
In His Love,
