What Went Wrong With Society? by Interesting15: 9:47am On Dec 12, 2023
Very young chaps now take pride in wild things beyond their age... sexual romps...wild parties and clubbing... scamming...

A lot of them no longer want to do anything worthwhile with their lives... Just want to live a cruise life... It's like there is a force bent on destroying them with at least one terrible addiction (if it's not gambling, then it is drugs, alcoholism, pornography, sexual addiction, etc)

Things people do in secret some years ago with shame, are now shamelessly flaunted publicly...

Parents now encouraged their male children to do anything (including yahoo and ritual) for money..

Some set up their daughters for prostitution..

Certain important value systems that uphold good morals in society seem to have been shattered..

I was shown some children materials (children books, cartoons, etc) filled with lewd content promoting sex and homosexuality...

What is happening to society, folks?

Note, I'm not complaining, since I know we are in the last days... And I know my own role in making things right again...

But I just want to stir the heart of someone...

In one of my daily writings, I noted some powerful things along these lines:

Destiny Empowerment Daily Devotional (by Sunday Akanni)

TOPIC: Why Is Society This Corrupt?

The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. Genesis 6:11 NKJV

*Message*

You might be part of the few still worried about how fast society has deteriorated when it comes to morals and good value systems. Maybe you have been asking yourself, "What has happened to society?" My answer to your question is simple, "prophecy is happening to society".

You should see this:

"But know this, that in the last days (in our today's society) perilous times will come (a massive degradation will be witnessed): For men (humans) will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! II Timothy 3:1‭-‬5 NKJV

Many years ago, God's Word informed us ahead of time that society would dip into a state of degradation where ugly things and happenings would be accepted as normal. And since God's Word is true, right before our very eyes, we are seeing all manner of rubbish becoming the norm.

However, in the midst of all of these, from the scriptures, two things should be given serious attention:

1. In a society saturated with heavy darkness (Isaiah 60), this is a great time for sons and daughters of God (saints in Christ Jesus) to arise and shine the Light of God in a wicked and crooked generation. Jesus said: “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:14‭, ‬16).

*In a bitter and tasteless society, believers must rise as true salts of the earth and impact society with their sweet savor.*

2. The end of the age is closer than we can imagine. All of the ugly norms we see today are vivid pointers to the fact that Jesus will return anytime soon. These are the last days that will usher in the divine vehicle known as the Rapture of the Saints, and the Lord Jesus will come as King. Eventually, this known earth will crumble, and a new heaven and earth will be made where Jesus reigns supreme.

*Prayer*
Pray that Saints will rise as light and salt for society's redemption.

*Further Reading*
because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. Romans 8:21 NKJV

They promise others freedom, yet they themselves are slaves to corruption, for people are slaves to whatever overcomes them. 2 Peter 2:19 TPT
