Where Are God's Strategists?

By David Hobbs

I just watched a 2 ½ hour YouTube video clip of former satanic high priest Stephen Dollins. Dollins says that satanists can be broken down into 2 groups--the dabblers: those street level practitioners who are out sacrificing cats, working rituals, and otherwise wreaking spiritual mayhem (these are the dangerous ones, he says); and then the elites whom he also calls “the planners.” That’s what struck me—the satanic planners.

These are the ones who strategize how to insinuate satan’s agenda into the culture of America  while simultaneously tearing down the authority of Christianity and the Bible. It hit me like a ton of bricks! So these are the ones behind the dumbing down of America and its secularization, behind the taking over of denominational churches and pushing them into liberalism and unbelief; behind the transforming of the universities from bastions of learning and searching for truth, into brain-washing machines for the secular worldview and the pushing of anti-Christian propaganda; behind the turning of the entertainment industry into sirens for hedonism, Christian bashing, foul-mouthed debasement of everything pure and good, and rebellion against all authority (especially parental); and behind the transforming of our government schools into anti-God, anti-morality propaganda centers to brainwash our children; and behind pushing the gay agenda so hard and intimidating most American institutions such as business, media, and government into going along with their mainstreaming of the destructive gay lifestyle while shutting up every opposing voice of morality and religion.

I could go on and on, but the question arises, who else could be behind all this? Who else could be behind the removing of prayer (and God) from the public school system in 1962, and the legalizing of abortion in 1973, and other cultural milestones on our descent toward cultural disaster? Could it possibly be just happenstance? Who else would be pushing this agenda? (And doing it successfully beyond what anyone could have anticipated 50 years ago.)

I am generally not a conspiracy theorist, but this begs the question. When things truly “just happen,” they happen randomly with no pattern. Likewise, when a clear pattern emerges, it can no longer be considered random—there has to be an intelligent force behind it.

So yes, the perpetrators have to be these elites; these planners of satanism who exist in the shadows. It has taken supernatural intelligence and power to pull this off. No man or group of men could have done this by themselves. Believe me there are many who would try, men who would give everything to take over the world for themselves if only they could (just like the Hunt bros. tried to take over the market in silver trading a generation ago). But no mere men could have brought about the changes in American and world culture we have seen in the last 50 years.

Why Satanists? Why not aliens? Why not the Illuminati? The Masons? Why not one of the many groups put forward by conspiracy theorists? Listen, I’m not speaking to the world. I’m speaking to Christians who know the Bible and understand spiritual reality. God only has one enemy—the devil. Everything that is anti-God, anti-Christian, anti-morality, etc. flows from the same source. There is no other. Whether it’s satanism, witchcraft, secularism, humanism, new age, eastern religions, even “enlightened, tolerant Protestantism”… it all originates from the same source—God only has one enemy!

But I say all that to get to the real point of this post: since this is demonstrably so, and we do have this empowered group of elite, satanic planners who have been so wildly successful over the last 50 years; where are their Christian counterparts? Where are the elite, Christian strategizers working to overthrow the works of the devil and retake American society for Jesus? Has anybody seen them? Heard of them? Seen the effects of their work? Instead we have Christians always on defense, always playing catch-up, always with their fingers in the dikes trying to hold back the ever-increasing leaks. I thank God for organizations like Focus on the Family, the AFA, Right to Life, Concerned Women for America, etc. that are in the trenches resisting the onslaught of evil. But who is winning? I read their newsletters trumpeting a victory here and a victory there, yet we’re losing the war! (Their answer is always the same: send more money. Yet after all the money is sent, we’re still losing the war!)

Likewise I thank God for prayer. But 99% of every prayer I hear is a reactive prayer. We are always reacting to what the devil is doing: heal so and so who is sick, deliver my son from his addiction to alcohol, restore my backslidden wife, raise up godly leaders to replace those who have been corrupted by money or power.

But where are our Christian think-tanks praying for and implementing strategies to take back America? To take the fight to the enemy? To plunder the enemy’s camp? To bring God’s Kingdom upon the earth? To figure out what the church must do to turn defeat into victory? If you tell me such groups are indeed out there even now, I ask: where is their success? Their fruit? Isn’t the power in us supposed to be greater than the power that’s in the devil? Shouldn’t our strategizers be more effective than his? Where is the evidence of that? If we have God-empowered planners and strategizers, why are we still getting our butts kicked all over town? Why are Christians still playing church while our culture goes down in flames around us?
