1 Peter 5:8 ‘Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:’

The Bilderberg meeting is an annual unofficial conference of some of the world’s most influential people. Since its inception in 1954, the Bilderberg Group has been comprised of European prime ministers, American presidents, and the wealthiest CEOs of the world, all coming together to discuss the economic and political future of humanity. However, these meetings are often shrouded in complete mystery and impenetrable security. The press has never been allowed to attend, nor have statements ever been released from these meetings which have ramifications on the citizens of the world.
Expectedly, this secret meeting of American and European elites have attracted huge amount of suspicion and paranoia.
In 2005, Daniel Estulin an award-winning investigative journalist, published a book titled ‘The True Story of the Bilderberg Group’,
In this book, Daniel Estulin provides an investigative report and fascinating account of these meetings of the Bilderberg Group. Using spy tactics and putting his own at risk, —the author did what no one else had managed to achieve by gaining access to what was being said behind the closed doors of the meetings and making it available to the public.
According to Daniel Estulin, the real and actual political power resides not with the publicly elected government representatives but with private individuals who are exercising power behind the scenes, beyond the scrutiny of democratic institutions. He believes there is one world on the surface where most of the world population lives but there’s another world that exists where an invisible government rules the world.
Other authors, literature and movies have also expounded this idea of a secret government.
While their notions are often dismissed as conspiracy theories, there is a spiritual truth we can derive from them.

Beyond the physical world there is a spiritual world that controls what goes on earth.
A believer who only walks by sight is living in spiritual ignorance, because things are established spiritually before they manifest physically.
To be victorious in life, we need to be spirituallly conscious and alert.
If your only experience is of the physical world and you lack knowledge of the spiritual realm, you may end up as a loser in the game of life.
As believers, though we are in the world we are not of this world. Our real realm of operation is the spirit realm.
Our battle is not with flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness in high places. Our weapons of spiritual warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
In this life, you can’t afford to limit yourself to operating only on the surface physical realm. That is dangerous.
There is a need for us to become spiritually knowledgeable so as to adequately handle the spiritual oppositions against our destiny.
Being born again is only the beginning of our journey, there is a need for rigorous spiritual training through diligent study of the Word, praying in the Spirit, worship, fasting etc
We have to become so controlled by God’s Word that we constantly walk by faith and not by sight.
The things of God ought to be more real to us than the things of this world.
The Christians who will triumph in this end-time are those who are ever vigilant and aware of their spiritual environment.
Certainly as we stay spiritually alert, sensitive and discerning, we will be able to overcome any hidden battle against us and triumph always through Christ.

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to always walk by the light of Your Word so that I can be spiritually alive and sensitive to my environment. By Your grace I shall always emerge triumphant over every hidden battle in Jesus Name.

As a child of God you have to recognize that you are in the middle of an ongoing battle, but through faith we have the victory. WORDBITE 222
