GLOBALISM STARTED WITH THE TOWER IF BABEL
We often think of Globalism as a modern concept-but nothing could be further than the truth.
Today, I am going to show you in PART1 of two parts that what we consider modern day globalism is an attempt by sinful man to consolidate and centralize power against God’s will. Let’s get started.

Ecclesiastes 3 describes God's design for life as a series of divinely appointed seasons, where every event, from birth to death, has its proper time. This "eternal perspective" suggests that God orchestrates the cycles of life and that humans should find contentment and purpose in their appointed season, recognizing that "He has made everything beautiful in His time".

Ultimately, the passage encourages patience and trust in God's timing, a belief that even life's toil is good and part of His eternal purpose. 

Key themes from Ecclesiastes 3

Divine timing: The most famous verse, "To everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven" (Ecclesiastes 3:1), emphasizes that God has a specific and predetermined time for all events in life.

Cycles of life: The passage lists many dualistic seasons, including "a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to weep, and a time to laugh". This illustrates that life is a series of cycles, not a straight line.

Finding purpose in toil: Verse 12 suggests finding joy and eating and drinking as a gift from God, and verse 13 states that there is nothing better for people "than to rejoice, and to do good in their life". This means we should take pleasure in our work and labor, knowing that it is good because it comes from God.

God's eternal purpose: The passage concludes by pointing to God's eternal purpose, stating that "whatever God does, it shall be for ever" (Ecclesiastes 3:14). This encourages a long-term perspective, trusting that God will ultimately bring all things to account and that His work is perfect and lasting. 

Applying Ecclesiastes 3 to life
Embrace the present moment: Since God is in control of time and seasons, we should find contentment in the season of life we are in. This means appreciating the moment, rather than anxiously rushing to the next.

Seek divine guidance: Recognize that God's plan for your life is larger and more complex than we can understand. The passage encourages us to align our actions with His wisdom, rather than pushing or rushing Him, and trust that He will accomplish what He has planned.

Find satisfaction in work: Consider your work to be a gift from God, a calling to serve Him where you are placed. This mindset can help you find joy in your daily toil, even during difficult times.

Look for hope and peace: The passage offers a message of hope and peace, encouraging us to trust in God's perfect timing, even when things are difficult. It suggests that the ups and downs of life are all part of His larger plan and that He will bring beauty to all of it in His time.

Joshua 3
recounts the Israelites' crossing of the Jordan River, where they consecrated themselves in preparation for a miracle. As the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant stepped into the river, the water stopped flowing upstream, and the entire nation crossed to the Promised Land on dry ground. This event demonstrated God's power and faithfulness, with the priests remaining in the river until everyone had crossed. 

• Preparation: Before crossing, Joshua told the people to "consecrate yourselves" because the Lord was going to perform wonders.
• The Crossing: At Joshua's command, the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant stepped into the flooding Jordan River.
• The Miracle: As soon as their feet touched the water, the river stopped flowing upstream at the city of Adam, allowing the entire nation of Israel to cross on dry ground.
• Symbolism: The miracle was a sign to the people that God was with them and would help them conquer the land, fulfilling His promises.
• Lasting Memorial: After the crossing, Joshua instructed the people to take twelve stones from the riverbed to create a memorial for future generations to remember this event.
