human mind is involved? Isn’t that Solomon’s plea? There is only injustice
as the unjust judge [unseen, negative spiritual force] continually lurks,
desiring to influence a mind while wanting self-incrimination. It is
imperative to know where judgement and criticism originate. What force in
the mind would suggest that “wisdom is chasing after the wind” and that
“nothing will ever change”? Obviously, the negative force would suggest
that, because it wants to cast doubt.
So, you can see the weakness even within a mind that possesses wisdom as
a special gift. Solomon, the son of King David, was ruling in the city of
David. He is reflective of the positive and the negative, and is prophetic all
the same. As he reminded us, “what has been done will be done again.” It is
so, until all is completed, and Satan’s head is crushed. David delivered his
people from the hands of their enemies. Was evil completely defeated? No,
it was not. Was his time the time of final deliverance from evil? No,
deliverance has not fully occurred, but deliverance is man’s destiny. We
know this is God’s covenant, and perhaps deliverance is right at the door.
Deliverance in part has occurred time and again, but time has evolved, and
we are the future of those who preceded us to this very day.
Solomon gave purpose to those who would follow, when he said, “Even
those who are yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow
them.”
(Ecclesiastes 1:11)
However, that is not precisely accurate. Those who
proceeded remind others who follow, and the witness is always similar. The
Hebrews thought this was so while Jesus walked among them. In fact, they
insisted that Jesus was the son of David, He should be King of the Jews,
and He should defeat them. They were disappointed to the point of denial.
They thought all would happen according to prophecy, and it will, but not
according to what they understood.
