This past Easter weekend wasn’t just marked by religious celebration—it was defined by a series of global power shifts that may signal prophetic movement straight out of the book of Revelation.
On Resurrection Sunday, President Donald Trump boldly acknowledged Jesus Christ as the risen Lord, declaring Him the Son of God who conquered death. That moment wasn’t merely political—it carried deep spiritual weight.
Philippians 2:10–11 declares, “At the name of Jesus every knee should bow…and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.” The president did exactly that, sending a powerful signal that reverberated beyond the political realm.

In contrast, King Charles—the official head of the Church of England—offered a message emphasizing unity between Christianity, Judaism and Islam, rather than highlighting the Resurrection of Jesus. For the “defender of the faith,” the omission was chilling.
The difference couldn’t be more stark: one world leader exalted Christ; the other embraced interfaith sentiment. As 2 Thessalonians 2:3 warns, the great apostasy must come first—and it now appears to be reaching the highest levels.

On Easter Monday, Pope Francis passed away at age 88, leaving a prophetic vacancy in global religious leadership. His tenure was marked by radical departures from Catholic tradition, including advocacy for climate agendas, economic restructuring and spiritual universalism.
That same day, Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum, quietly stepped down. His interim replacement, Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, has previously been criticized for suggesting water is not a human right and for promoting climate adaptation over prevention. These views echo a philosophy of control that aligns with Revelation 17:12–13, in which 10 kings unite to give their power to the beast.
In a single weekend, a pope died, a globalist stepped down, a king compromised and a president exalted Jesus. That’s not coincidence—it’s prophetic positioning. The systems, leaders and ideologies that Revelation warns about are rapidly taking shape.
As 1 Thessalonians 5:3 says, “When they say, ‘Peace and safety!’ then sudden destruction comes upon them.” The clock hasn’t stopped ticking. Now is the time for the church to stay spiritually awake, grounded in truth and ready for what comes next.
Jesus said in Luke 21:28, “When these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”
