Then is it no good for these nations and generations for God hates them and is actively destroying them to their faces. Come let us sit and set our faces against them and watch God break their power and see if any will acknowledge their errors and repent.
You seem to think that God is an "angry" God, God is certainly NOT like you...an "angry" man! John 3v16

What does Psalm 7:10-12 say? Since you would like to attack my person, let me make suggestion to your person, read the verses that follow John 3:16 about the condemnation of the darkness.

So it is a true saying that God said; they blind their own eyes and shut their own ears, lest at any time they should see and hear and repent and I should heal them. On the side before the cross God promised to shake the earth, but on this side of the cross God has promised to shake both the earth and the heavens.
Jesus is the light of the world but you focus on blindness rather than sight. Once again you show that you’ve never been interested in God’s love and grace, A-Sword-Cometh.

Is it because Jesus said "I come not to bring peace to the earth but a sword" that you wish for the sword to come?

Whoever loves God will do his commandments, and whoever does not love God will strive against his commandments, but they shall not change God's mind on this matter by trying to gaslight him.

That’s right, and you show yourself to not love God, for you don’t embrace the Golden Rule. Instead you emulate the scribes and Pharisees who brought forth a woman caught in the act of adultery, but unlike them, you refuse to drop your stone and walk away, A-Sword-Cometh.

That's a mighty fine accusation Satan.

Did Jesus say to the woman caught in adultery; "go and sin no more lest something worse happen to you."?

We are not focusing on the woman, we’re focusing on you. And you’ve just been caught in your own snare. Referring to a child of God as Satan gets you muzzled. You’ve been reported.

I have referred to no child of God as Satan.

Do as you please Satan, accuser of the faithful, it's not going to change God's mind though your persecution of the children of God. The power of the nations shall be broken by God's hand.

Blessed am I now proven the Salt of God, with joy I shall accept my promotion up higher in the Kingdom of God, in the name of Jesus, amen.

Matthew 5:10-19

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

We're not to the fire and brimstone part yet, though now that you mention it it may be a good idea to mention that not only will they be broken right here on earth, but God shall throw them into the hellfire also afterwards.. God already began judgement against them, and the judgement will continue too even after God breaks the power of the nations until one of two things happens. The first scenario is the wicked society will acknowledge their grievous offenses and how they do try to gaslight God and how they did evilly against his faithful and how they rewarded and defended the wicked always, and if they do this God is able to restore everything he will take away from them. The second scenario is this; they double down in their wickedness for the hardness of their hearts and try to fight God and God will fight them until he utterly consumes them and makes a full end of them.
This has always been the case throughout history. You still didn't answer my question: are you expecting a judgment or revival event in 38 days?

You are smart, it has indeed been the way God acts throughout history to such wicked societies. Sorry it was not clear that was what you were asking. To answer you more directly; I personally expect since God is already judging them, and seeing indeed how they react to God's judgements, that they will not acknowledge their offenses, nor repent, and so the power of the nations shall be broken and they will not revive, but fall away, and will become twice the children of hell that they are already and incur further damnation upon themselves. If however I am wrong and they do acknowledge their errors sufficiently and repent of them and turn back tothe Lord God and do his commandments, to reward the righteous, punish the wicked, depart from the lies, and lodge in the truth, I will not be disappointed with that though. Nevertheless it is not for me to pick their fate nor to protest against God.

God doesn't care about numerology, nor will God regard such witchcraft. Seek dilligently his word rather than the wizards and practicioners of divination, for it is by the word that God operates and will make plain what is right and what is wrong, what is past and what is to come.
I have His word, am not into witchcraft or divination, and as scripture says many times not to look or judge on the outward appearance. The Bible gives numbers that have meaning, perhaps numerology wasn't the best word to use apparently, but ty for the advice, i will consider not using the word for those so eager to label others for using it, thankfully God knows my heart in what I was trying say, and not man.

Agreed

OP had put the checkmark reaction on my first post in this thread, but I tried to frame it as a rebuttal.

And then I posted about popcorn.

I had forgotten about A-S-C, so it didn't dawn on me that the OP was probably that person under a new name.

Who was A-S-C? :unsure:

Sounds like one of David's imprecatories.

God's loves them and He even loves you. I hope you find peace and rest for your angry and imbittered soul. There but by the grace of God go we. God is just. Let go and let Him take care of judgement. Don't let it ruin your life.
