Demon Possessed Politics: When Leaders Choose War Over Peace

Demon possessed politics reveals itself when leaders prioritize profit over people, choosing war over peace despite overwhelming public opposition. Matthew 8’s account of demon-possessed men and a financially-focused town exposes timeless truths about spiritual warfare in governance, challenging believers to resist evil through prayer, discernment, and faithful citizenship in constitutional republics.

The Political Landscape: A Nation Betrayed After Election Victory

What does demon possessed politics look like in modern governance? Demon possessed politics manifests when elected officials disregard clear voter mandates, escalate conflicts against public will, and prioritize financial gain over human life. This spiritual corruption shows itself through policies that endanger citizens, undermine constitutional principles, and serve special interests rather than the common good revealed through democratic processes.

The American people delivered a clear mandate in the recent election, voting decisively for both houses of Congress and the presidency with an unmistakable message: end foreign entanglements and restore domestic priorities. Yet within days of this electoral victory, the outgoing administration authorized the firing of ATACMS missiles by U.S. soldiers from Ukraine into Russia, a provocative escalation that directly contradicts the people’s expressed will.

This is not merely political disagreement or policy debate. This represents something far more sinister: demon possessed politics that values profit and power over human life and national sovereignty. When leaders knowingly ignore the voice of their constituents and pursue actions that could spark nuclear conflict, they reveal themselves to be under spiritual influence that Scripture clearly identifies as demonic.

The people of the United States voted overwhelmingly against this war. The people of Europe, whose infrastructure and security remain vulnerable, do not want this war. The people of Russia do not want this war. The people of Ukraine, suffering under devastating losses, do not want this war. So who benefits from this escalation? As we examine through our exploration of spontaneous scriptural commentary on contemporary issues, the answer reveals patterns of spiritual warfare operating through political systems.

The demon-possessed RINO’s and neocon Democrats in the Senate have become the enemy of the American people. Their thinking is transparent and diabolical: the more dead people, the more profit; the more chaos, the more opportunity to undermine the incoming administration; the more international crisis, the more justification for maintaining emergency powers and delaying peaceful transitions.

Matthew 8: The Demon-Possessed Men and the Financially-Focused Town

How does Matthew 8 expose spiritual warfare in community priorities? Matthew 8 exposes spiritual warfare through the contrast between Jesus’ compassionate deliverance of demon-possessed men and the town’s rejection of Him due to financial concerns. The townspeople valued their swine herd’s economic worth over their neighbors’ freedom from demonic torment, revealing how material greed blinds communities to spiritual realities and eternal values.

The passage in Matthew 8:28-34 provides profound insight into the nature of demon possessed politics and the spiritual blindness that accompanies material obsession:

When He had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way. And suddenly they cried out, saying, “What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?”

Matthew 8:28-29

Consider the details of this account. Two men, possessed by demons, lived among the tombs in a state of constant torment. They were so fierce that no one could pass by that road. The entire community knew about them, yet chose avoidance over intervention. These men were someone’s sons, perhaps someone’s brothers or fathers, yet the town had written them off, relegating them to the outskirts where they could be ignored.

Jesus was not actively seeking these demon-possessed men. He was simply walking with His disciples when the two rushed out. The demons immediately recognized Him and identified Him correctly as the Son of God. They asked a revealing question: “Have You come here to torment us before the time?” This indicates the demons understood there would be a final judgment, a set time for their ultimate defeat, but that time had not yet come.

Jesus said nothing to the demons initially. He did not engage in theological debate or lengthy discussion. When they requested to be sent into a nearby herd of swine rather than be cast into the abyss, He simply said, “Go.” The demons entered the swine, and the entire herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea and drowned.

The swineherds ran into the city and reported everything. Here is where the passage becomes particularly relevant to understanding demon possessed politics in our own time. The townspeople came out, but not to rejoice that their two neighbors had been freed from demonic bondage. They came out because of a financial concern.

And when they saw Him, they begged Him to depart from their region.

Matthew 8:34

The town asked Jesus to leave. They did not want any more “agricultural harm.” They did not care about people possessed by demons. Their priority was commercial, not spiritual. They valued their swine more than their suffering neighbors. This is the heart of demon possessed politics: the prioritization of financial profit over human life and spiritual truth.

Through our study of biblical wisdom applied to daily living, we discover that this pattern repeats throughout Scripture and history whenever people allow material concerns to override moral imperatives.

The Money for Blood System: War as Profit Enterprise

Why do political leaders escalate conflicts against their constituents’ will? Political leaders escalate conflicts against constituents’ will because war generates enormous profits for connected special interests through defense contracts, reconstruction deals, and financial manipulation. This “money for blood” system creates incentives for prolonged conflict, with politicians receiving campaign contributions and future opportunities from those profiting from human suffering and death.

The Ukraine conflict has never been about Ukrainian freedom or Russian aggression. From the beginning, it has been about money for blood. The same pattern appears throughout recent American military history: wars that serve special interests while ordinary citizens bear the cost in lives, treasury, and national security.

Who benefits when missiles are fired into Russia?

The Obama political trust benefits through the maintenance of foreign policy narratives and justification for continued interventionist approaches. The McConnell political trust benefits through defense industry connections and the perpetuation of the military-industrial complex that has enriched connected insiders for decades. The Zelensky real estate investment trust benefits through the conversion of American taxpayer dollars into personal wealth, with properties now in Miami, Paris, and multiple luxury locations.

This is not speculation or conspiracy theory. It is observable reality. Leaders in Ukraine have become extraordinarily wealthy during a war that has devastated their country and killed hundreds of thousands of people. American politicians have authorized hundreds of billions in “aid” with virtually no accountability for how these funds are used or who ultimately profits from them.

The lame duck Cheney Hawks, named after the neoconservative establishment that has driven American foreign policy for decades, hope to accomplish several objectives through this escalation:

First, they seek to create such chaos and potential for World War III that the incoming administration will be hamstrung, unable to implement the peaceful policies the American people voted for. If the country is embroiled in active conflict or nuclear brinksmanship, they can argue that “you can’t change horses midstream” and that the “dynamic duo” of the current administration must remain in power or at least maintain control over foreign policy.

Second, they hope to provoke Russia into a response that will justify further escalation and spending. Every billion dollars sent to Ukraine represents profit for connected defense contractors, lobbyists, and political operatives. The more dead people, the more profit. This is the demon possessed politics that Matthew 8 exposes: valuing financial gain over human life.

Third, they seek to undermine President-elect Trump before he even takes office, creating problems he will inherit and be blamed for. The deliberate creation of multiple crises, from the border invasion that brought 10-20 million illegal immigrants into the country without proper vetting, to the vulnerability of the electrical grid, to the destruction of energy independence, to the massive inflation caused by reckless money printing, all serve to make the incoming administration’s job nearly impossible.

Our examination of biblical reflection on modern political and social issues reveals how Scripture provides timeless wisdom for identifying and resisting these demonic patterns in governance.

Election Integrity: The Continued Theft of Democratic Process

How does prolonged vote counting enable election manipulation? Prolonged vote counting enables election manipulation by creating opportunities to “find” additional ballots that consistently favor one political party. When counting extends for weeks after election day, transparency diminishes, chain of custody becomes questionable, and statistically impossible patterns emerge that erode public confidence in democratic processes and constitutional governance.

Over a week after a decisive election, multiple states continued counting votes: Iowa, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. This is not normal. This is not acceptable in a technological age when we can process billions of financial transactions instantly, when we can track packages across continents in real-time, and when we can communicate instantly with anyone on Earth.

These are not votes being counted. These are votes being manipulated. How do we know? Because of an “incredible natural phenomenon” that occurs whenever counting extends for a week or more after election: the blue side increases. Every time. Without fail.

This pattern defies statistical probability. In honest counting, late-arriving ballots should roughly mirror the overall electoral pattern, with some variation based on where the votes originate but no systematic bias. Yet whenever counting extends, one party benefits disproportionately. This is evidence of election fraud, pure and simple.

The Democrats cannot be trusted with good faith election laws because they have repeatedly demonstrated their willingness to manipulate the system when given opportunity. The solution requires a fundamental restructuring of how elections are conducted, perhaps using Social Security-based fail-safe systems starting with a fixed number of voters. If the IRS can track down every citizen for tax purposes, we can certainly establish a secure, transparent, same-day voting system that produces results we can trust.

The longer vote counting continues, the more it deteriorates the ability to get legislation passed in the House and Senate. If the final composition of Congress remains unclear or contested, the incoming administration faces gridlock before even taking office. This serves the interests of those committed to demon possessed politics, those who want continued conflict and chaos rather than the peaceful implementation of the people’s will.

Through resources like the 4-3 Formula for spiritual growth and faithful citizenship, believers can develop the discernment and courage necessary to resist these assaults on constitutional governance.

The Spiritual Diagnosis: Demon Possessed Leadership

What are the biblical indicators of demon possession in leadership? Biblical indicators of demon possession in leadership include prioritizing profit over people, causing needless suffering for personal gain, rejecting truth despite clear evidence, operating in deception and manipulation, and showing no conscience about sacrificing innocent lives. These patterns mirror the demons in Matthew 8 who tormented individuals while the community prioritized financial concerns over spiritual deliverance.

The parallel between the townspeople in Matthew 8 and today’s political establishment is unmistakable. Both prioritize economic concerns over human welfare. Both demonstrate spiritual blindness to moral realities. Both prefer to avoid confrontation with evil rather than seek deliverance from it.

When Jesus freed the two demon-possessed men, the townspeople should have celebrated. They should have thanked Him. They should have asked Him to stay and teach them, to help others in need, to bring His transformative power to their entire community. Instead, they calculated the financial loss of the swine herd and asked Him to leave.

This is straight-up Senate behavior. This is straight-up Congress behavior. They know 140,000 children have gone missing at the border. They could have closed that border in one day on the first day. They did not because the chaos serves their purposes. Everything has been by design to collapse the country, to create dependency, to maintain power and profit.

When leaders know that firing missiles into Russia could provoke nuclear retaliation, yet they order it anyway, they demonstrate demon possession. When they understand that the American people, the European people, the Russian people, and the Ukrainian people all oppose this war, yet they escalate it anyway, they reveal spiritual bondage to forces that desire death and destruction.

The Scripture warns us:

What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?

Mark 8:36

The soul of America is at stake. We cannot passively accept this demon possessed politics. We cannot sit back and allow our children to be put into the meat grinder of World War III so that a few fat cats in D.C. can make money.

Our exploration of divine providence in difficult times demonstrates how God works even when human leaders embrace wickedness.

China’s Strategic Opportunism: The Global Implications

How do international adversaries exploit America’s political chaos? International adversaries exploit America’s political chaos by timing aggressive actions when U.S. leadership is divided and distracted. China’s cutting of Northern European communication cables during the Ukraine crisis demonstrates coordinated opportunism, revealing how demon possessed politics weakens national security and emboldens enemies seeking to expand their influence during American vulnerability and leadership transition.

China is not sitting idly by watching this drama unfold. Two days before this message, China cut the communication cables to Northern Europe. This was not an accident. This was a strategic action designed to help create the conditions for wider conflict and to test Western resolve during a period of American political transition.

If the United States becomes embroiled in a war with Russia, does anyone seriously believe China will remain neutral? This would be their moment of maximum opportunity to act against Taiwan, to expand their territorial claims in the South China Sea, to assert dominance over regional neighbors who have relied on American security guarantees.

The lame duck Cheney Hawks are hoping to ramp this war up fast enough that by January 20th, the incoming administration faces such an international crisis that they cannot implement their peacetime agenda. The narrative would become: “This is a National Emergency. We cannot have a change in leadership now. We need experienced hands on deck to navigate these treacherous waters.”

The result of all this carefully orchestrated chaos? Lots of dead young people on multiple continents. Lots of “donor juice” (campaign contributions) flowing to politicians who authorized the spending. And potentially the ability to delay or prevent the peaceful transfer of power that the American people voted for.

This is not governance. This is demon possessed politics operating at the highest levels, willingly sacrificing human lives for political and financial advantage.

The Call to Spiritual Warfare: Prayer and Action

How should Christians respond to demon possessed politics? Christians respond to demon possessed politics through fervent prayer for God’s intervention, informed engagement in the political process, support for leaders committed to righteousness, and refusal to passively accept evil in governance. Biblical citizenship requires both spiritual warfare through prayer and practical action through voting, advocacy, and maintaining prophetic witness against corruption regardless of personal cost.

We cannot operate like the townspeople Jesus encountered. They were only interested in their financial well-being, asking Jesus to leave rather than embracing the spiritual transformation He offered. We must be different.

The energy and patriotism that brought victory on election day must carry through the next 60 days and beyond. Right now, that is not looking positive. The demons in our government need to come out, and if they do not, bad times are ahead.

This requires hitting our knees in prayer. Our government is infected with spiritual darkness that only God can expose and drive out. Prayer is not passive resignation. Prayer is active warfare in the spiritual realm that produces real-world results. Through our confidential prayer support network, believers can connect and intercede together for our nation.

But prayer must be accompanied by action. We must let our voices be heard. We must demand election integrity through technological solutions that make fraud impossible. We must support leaders who resist the money for blood system. We must hold accountable those who serve special interests rather than the American people.

We cannot be silent when missiles are fired at Russia. We cannot shrug when troops are deployed without congressional authorization. We cannot accept the narrative that prolonged vote counting is normal or that border chaos is unavoidable.

The Senate has become enemy number one for the incoming administration and for the American people. These politicians know what they are doing. They are willingly choosing demon possessed politics over righteous governance. They must face consequences, both political and spiritual.

As we examine through our mission to illuminate current events with biblical truth, the constitutional republic can only survive and thrive with a believing populace. When citizens abandon biblical principles and allow pragmatic evil to govern, societies collapse into tyranny and chaos.

The choice is stark: Will we embrace the townspeople’s financial priorities, asking Jesus to leave so our comfortable economic arrangements remain undisturbed? Or will we celebrate deliverance from demonic bondage, even when it costs us materially?

Conclusion: Choosing Life Over Death, Truth Over Profit

The parallels between Matthew 8 and our current political crisis are undeniable. Demon possessed politics operates by the same principles today as it did in ancient Gadara: prioritize profit over people, value material security over spiritual deliverance, and reject truth when it threatens comfortable arrangements.

The two demon-possessed men in Matthew’s account were freed instantly when Jesus spoke. The demons recognized His authority. The deliverance was complete. But the townspeople rejected this miraculous work because it cost them financially. They preferred to live with possessed neighbors on the outskirts rather than sacrifice their swine herd for their neighbors’ freedom.

We face the same choice in America today. Will we accept demon possessed politics because resisting it might cost us comfort, security, or material prosperity? Or will we stand for truth, righteousness, and life, regardless of the cost?

The lame duck Cheney Hawks are betting that Americans will choose passivity. They are counting on us to shrug our shoulders and say, “Well, Biden approved it. Our troops are firing the missiles. I guess there’s nothing we can do.” They want us to accept election fraud, border chaos, economic manipulation, and warmongering as inevitable rather than as evil that must be resisted.

But there is another way. We can pray with the same fervor that drove us to the polls on election day. We can speak truth to power through every available channel. We can support leaders who resist the money for blood system. We can demand election integrity that makes fraud impossible. We can refuse to sacrifice our children on the altar of political profit.

Through accessing resources for Christian growth and faithful citizenship, believers can equip themselves for this spiritual battle. By maintaining connection with our Christian community, we encourage one another to remain faithful under pressure. Through studying biblical wisdom for contemporary challenges, we develop the discernment necessary to identify and resist evil in all its forms.

The demons recognized Jesus and trembled. The townspeople recognized their financial loss and asked Him to leave. Which will we be? Will we recognize spiritual warfare for what it is and call upon the One who has authority over demons? Or will we calculate our earthly comfort and ask Him to depart?

The choice is ours, and the time is short. The next 60 days will determine whether the clearly expressed will of the American people is implemented or whether demon possessed politics succeeds in creating enough chaos to prevent peaceful governance.

It is time for believers to rise up, to pray fervently, to speak boldly, and to act faithfully. The soul of our nation hangs in the balance. We cannot afford to be like the townspeople of Gadara, more concerned with swine than with souls, more focused on economics than on righteousness.

May God give us the courage to reject demon possessed politics in all its forms, to stand for truth regardless of cost, and to seek His kingdom first, trusting that He will add everything else we need. The demons must come out of our government, or bad times are indeed ahead.
