Blood on the right ear… Trump’s Divine Providence

Nothing to do with Christian Nationalism. Just some superstitious kookymongoria.

But even if we wanted to go that route . . . it wouldn't be one's own blood he was consecrated with. What really happened was Trump's ear was opened, and a better parallel is the scriptural mark of a servant and its relation to the suffering servant of Isaiah.

And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is well with thee; Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise. - Deuteronomy 15:16-17​
The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back. I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. He is near that justifieth me; who will contend with me? let us stand together: who is mine adversary? let him come near to me. - Isaiah 50:5-8​
That's still stretching things a bit, but definitely a better parallel.

I think what is happening to Trump is what happened to David Wilkerson in his ministry to the gangs in New York. I don't remember many details from the book, The Cross and the Switchblade, but I remember that Wilkerson was arrested for approaching some official under what he thought was a command of the Holy Spirit. (He was Pentecostal...Assemblies of God to be specific.)

He was arrested and photo of him being not too gently dragged away by the police while still clutching his Bible was published in the paper the next day. That photo made the gang members more receptive of him, because they saw in that photo, that the police hated him. Whether the police really hated him or not wasn't the issue, it's what they saw.

In the same way, a large demographic who believe they've been railroaded by the system, are identifying with Trump because of the way he is being railroaded by the system. He's real to them, and he has their hearts now. There is nothing the Dems can do now except kill him. It's obvious that that's what they're trying to do.

Whether or not they succeed is, and always has been, in the hands of God.

And that's what we were reminded of last Saturday.
