Let the Most High Rule in the Kingdom of Men
This upcoming week an event of great significance will take place in America. What does the Bible say?
As the world braces for the American Election, Bible students can rest assured that the will of the Father will prevail. It is not always what we want but what is needed to bring about His will. We know the eventual outcome of world affairs, but how this end is achieved by the angels, we cannot know. We watch enthusiastically with the Bible in hand, without intervention by vote or voice.
In this upcoming week an event of great significance will take place in America.
Donald Trump has termed it, “The most important election in the history of America” and recently added, “It is the most important election in the history of Israel.”
A Divided State
There is no doubt about it: American society is about as polarised as it gets. The woke left has run rampant during the reigns of Obama and Biden. The leftist agenda has been pushed forward, supported by politicians, the media and Universities. The “right” side was asleep at the switch for a while until Trump showed up and turned mainstream politics on its head.
God used Trump and his former administration, including Jared Kushner, to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and put into place the Abraham Accords, the most radical shift in world politics, breaking from the “accepted” narrative and bringing huge dividends to the nations that participated.
Both Trump and Netanyahu were forced out of office during the year following the Accords.
The momentum they had begun continued under Biden. Iran engaged its proxies, starting with Hamas, then Hezbollah and the Houthis, to scuttle the warming of relationships between Israel and Saudi Arabia.
The Biden Administration did not know what to do with the Hamas attack on Israel, vacillating between initial support and then pressure to make peace and the withholding of weapons for Israel to defend itself.
What will happen next week? We do not know the outcome, no different than the outcome of the election that brought Trump to power in the first place. All the media predicted his abysmal defeat, and yet the Angels had another plan in place.
The Biblical Prerogative
As Bible believers, there is an over-arching principle that we must recognise:
“…the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.” (Daniel 4:17)
It is God and the Angels that are in control of who assumes the mantle of power in America. We cannot know the direction God wants the world to go in, in the short term. We do know the end results that the prophets outline:
- Peace in Israel prior to the Russian invasion, as was discussed last week
- A Resurgent Russia in control of Europe
- A weakened America unable to stop the events of Ezekiel 38
What happens to Israel?
It may well be that the return of Trump to the Whitehouse may be necessary to bring peace in the Middle East. It may have been that Trump’s exit was required to force Israel to deal with Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran, though they have been unwilling to do so for years. Trump made the statement at the Republican National Convention:
“I will end every single international crisis that the current administration has created, including the horrible war with Russia and Ukraine — which would have never happened if I was president — and the war caused by the attack on Israel, which would have never happened if I was president.”
It may be that is why he was not president for a while. The terrible events in Israel have forced it to stop listening to the opinions of nations around the world and focus on what is good for God’s people in the land. Netanyahu stated,
“We are changing the security reality in our region; for the sake of our children, for the sake of our future, to ensure that what happened on the 7th of October will not happen again. Never again.”
It may well be that the war with Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran is the only way to bring peace to the region. Perhaps Trump’s return to a totally reshaped Middle East will be what the Angels have prepared. Perhaps he is not to return, as there are other things that need to take place without the strong hand of America intervening. What we do know is that there must be a real peace in the Middle East before Christ’s return, for “they shall dwell safely all of them” (Ezekiel 38:8). The extent of this safety was brought out last week:
“And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.” (Ezekiel 38:11–12)
This state must be achieved, and it may well be a furtherance of the Abraham Accords that will bring this about.
What happens to Ukraine?
We also know that Russia must be triumphant, and Europe must be chained. The Kiev Independent stated:
Trump has claimed he would end Russia's war within "24 hours" without elaborating on how he plans to achieve it. Some reports and statements from Trump's inner circle indicate this might entail pressuring Ukraine to cede territory or give up on its NATO aspirations.
The Bible tells us that not only Ukraine but Europe will fall under the control of Russia when the final conflict comes about. The instructions to Gog of the Land of Magog, the Prince of Rosh, Meshech and Tubal are given:
“Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.” (Ezekiel 38:7)
The guarding of Europe, and the associated nations including France, Germany, Italy, Greece, Ukraine and the rest is a foregone conclusion. How we get from the situation we see today to that future biblically outlined state remains to be seen. It may be that a Kamila-style White House would be the right recipe for such a disaster.
America Great Again?
Trump has run on a “Make America Great Again” campaign. Is that the purpose of the Father? Is America and the things it stands for in line with the things of the Father? Increasingly, it is going in a direction wholly opposed to God and his principles as taught in the Bible.
America’s destiny is one of weakness. It has abandoned God and driven the Bible out of schools and all national institutions. The words of Hosea have been quoted by many leaders in America mourning the state of affairs:
“For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind….” (Hosea 8:7)
What made America great in the first place was the biblical principles threaded into the fabric of its society. As these threads are pulled out, the national fabric falls apart. Reminiscent of Israel’s demise, America has turned its back on God and, consequently, cannot state “in God we trust” or request “God bless America.” Israel was warned:
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: Because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: Seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” (Hosea 4:6)
If America blesses Israel under Trump, it may find itself a recipient of the blessings promised. If it curses Israel under Kamila, it may find itself a recipient of the cursing also promised in the same verse:
“And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.” (Genesis 12:3)
It may be that Trump does win the election. He has had much Catholic support behind him, with prominent and vocal Catholics like Robert Kenedy, Mel Gibson throwing their support behind him. The New Humanist, in a June 2024 article, recounted,
On a 2020 phone call with Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York, who gushed his support, Trump called himself the “best [president] in the history of the Catholic Church”.
This was in reference to his appointment of judges who were anti-abortion. Three of the Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe vs Wade were appointed by Trump, bringing the total of judges raised Catholic to seven out of nine.
If Trump, successful in election, were to be assassinated, it would make J. D Vance the third Catholic president of the United States. Once in power, who knows how Vance would turn his policies?
Eventually, America will be diminished, and Israel will rise to greatness under the leadership of the Lord Jesus Christ. America, along with all nations, will be called upon to submit to his righteous rule. We believe the Bible indicates there will be some shred of Biblical fabric left that will cause the nation to bow the knee:
“The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: All nations shall serve him.” (Psalm 72:10–11)
One thing is for sure:
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” (Acts 17:30–31)
We pray that day will be soon.
For the Bible in the News, this has been Jonathan Bowen joining you.

Description: Many words and phrases in the Song of Solomon appear in verses in the psalms and the prophets, and in the words of Jesus in the gospels and the apocalypse. Solomon's rule was typical of the rule of Christ, on the restored throne of David. Ten proofs establish the Messianic meaning of the Song of Solomon, such as the purity of the bride and Lebanon pointing to the glories of the Kingdom. Studying the Song motivates the whole ecclesia to love the Bridegroom, to long for him to come, to welcome visitors and show them how much we care.
