The world is not going to change the world order.
It's not going to change.
It has already changed.
A series of events have already begun, have already been put in place that
will lead to the upheaval and the changing of the global world order.
Now, as the west is pushed, pushing for environmental justice in
squabbles over the alphabet agenda and attacking the morals and Colts.
That is the very foundation of healthy and strong societies and economies.
Well, it seems that the west is completely asleep.
There's a complete change of the global world order, but
the west is completely lost.
In ridiculous culture wars, ridiculous culture squabbles, and they do not
recognize what has already come upon them.
What has already entered their house.
Now, the question for you and I, however, is how will we respond
in who will we be friends?
Hey, it's Lucas Skrobot.
And you're listening to the Lucas Skrobot out show where we uncover purpose, pursue
truth and own the future episode 273.
It is March 10th, 2022.
And the, the war between Russia and Ukraine has slowed a little bit,
but it is for sure, continuing to escalate is continuing to escalate.
I personally.
Now I'm not the world's most leading Russian NATO geopolitical expert.
I've never pretended to be so, but I personally have a hard time seeing
how Putin in the bear of Russia, who is seemingly being back further and
further into a corner, finding less and less friends across the world.
Having an economy that is being.
Currently turning more and more to Russia.
I have a hard time seeing how Putin is going to accept this failure.
This loss.
Now there are signs that Salinsky is going to be coming to the table
and being willing to not join NATO.
He said this week that he doesn't want to join NATO begging on his knees to join.
And he, he may actually, uh, let Russia annex some of.
Areas of the Ukraine in order to buy peace.
But how long will that last?
Not sure.
NATO is continuing to intervene on Ukraine's behalf.
Poland is sending MIGS to Ukraine for them to use.
And the U S is saying that they're going to backfill a lot of people.
That this is signaling that NATO is entering this war with Russia.
There's actually, uh, a battalion of Canadian soldiers.
There's so many Canadians fighting for Ukraine that there's a whole battalion
of Canadian soldiers fighting in Ukraine.
And rightly so that the devastation 1.5 million almost 2 million refugees
have fled Ukraine up to this point.
Into surrounding nations, mostly Poland,
but it is hard to see how this is going to deescalate.
And it's very easy to see how this and many experts believe that this is the
trigger point, the trigger event that is going to unfold into the third world war.
Just like there were trigger events that unfolded into the first and second
world war, the assassination of France.
Led to mobilization of troops and this unstoppable, like pulling the pin out of
a grenade and unstoppable progression.
Same thing happened in world war II.
Hitler kept on invading more and more land.
And finally UK declared war on Hitler and he was shocked, but it led to the, the
unraveling of Europe into world war II.
Many people believe that this is that, that this is.
The grain of rice that tip the scales.
As we head into this new world war and with big wars, there comes big global
restructuring of the world order.
We already talked about this.
It's like, I'm a broken record on this show.
What happened in Afghanistan?
It wasn't the catalyst, but it was a sign.
It was a, a litmus test.
That there is a new world order that is being established currently, and it's not
necessarily coming from global elites.
Oftentimes it's also grassroots up.
Sure.
Global leads can be affecting the way that culture is being shaped by
the things that they fund into the movements that they push forward.
But I think that these are greater macro shifts that are.
Integrated into many parts of society, not just some people in
an ivory tower, somewhere pulling strengths, though, that of course
plays a role this week on Instagram, I posted a poll on whether people
thought that this was true or false.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Is that true?
Or is that a fallacy?
And the split was.
45% saying that's true.
And 56% saying or 55% saying that that is false.
And I fall on the false then.
Now of course there are times where that is true with the
enemy of my enemy is my friend.
And if we are being attacked, we can stand together.
Even though we might not have a bilateral agreement and we
can face our enemy together.
But right now I'm seeing this logic being applied to this.
Conflict specifically, specifically from American pundits in the west.
That don't like the media.
I don't like the media.
I don't like the censorship that goes on.
I don't like MSN.
I don't like MSM BC.
I don't like the big tech censorship.
In fact, I'm kind of shocked right now.
I'm on telegram.
I use my American phone number on telegram.
The Russian times, direction news.
Our tea is blocked on telegram telegram, which is often considered
a censorship free platform where you can get information to news.
Now I do not believe everything that comes through our team.
Most of it sounds and looks like propaganda, but in order to do this
show, I want to be able to read what is being said by the opposing party.
Now.
Naturally not everyone is going to be so discerning in their eye.
Not everyone is going to take everything that comes out on the news media with a
grain of salt and they just believe it as propaganda and they push it forward.
But the same thing is happening in, in Russia in Russia has been
cut off from Facebook's been cut off from CNN has been cut off from
the news American news sources.
Censorship is happening there and now.
Have pointed to that.
Look at the censorship that's happening in, in Russia.
See, they're just a bunch of dictators.
They're a bunch of tyrants at the same time.
Look at the, the censorship that's happening in the west via big tech and
the further closing off of information, I, I do not, and this is where it
comes in people then see, and they look like, wait, MSNBC is supporting.
Uh, Ukraine and Zalinsky of the Biden administration who got paid off by
Ukraine is supporting Solinski oh, I'm going to, I'm going to support
Putin because he's emptying the swamp in Ukraine and he's doing what
we wanted Trump to do in America.
That to me is so absurd.
The enemy of your enemy is not your friend in this situation.
Putin is not your.
Uh, many other people who tend to have a, the people that I've read.
How about I put it this way?
The people that I've seen on social media, who I know tend to have a slant
towards antisemitism have also sided with Putin saying, ah, and this has been on
the, on telegram and many other places.
People are saying, oh, look who Jen's going in.
And he's not the Ukraine.
And he's kicking out the Jews that are running the Ukraine.
And this is a great thing.
Cause he's reading the Jews from the Ukraine.
Putin is not your friend.
Look, look at what Putin did in the war in Syria, bombing
hundreds, bombing food lines.
These are well-documented things that.
So just because you might not like what big tech censorship is doing.
I don't like it.
I don't like what big tech center sip chip is doing, even in this conflict, because
I want to be able to get the information that's coming from the other side.
I want to have a full picture, but that doesn't mean I'm going to side with what
is happening in Ukraine against civilians.
Thanks.
Absolutely not.
He is a madman who who's off his rocker.
We are being the globe is being led into war, war three.
I do believe I do believe that I could be very wrong.
I hope I'm wrong because it means there's a lot of chaos and pain and
hurt and hardship and disappointment that will come into the world.
But how will we respond to that?
Well, before we get into our response and some wisdom of how
to walk out, potentially this.
Season of our life, which we'll be covering in the Weaver nuMe section.
I want to touch on how world orders come to power, what world orders are and
how world orders get changed and fall.
How do superpowers become super powers?
Well, I was sent this.
This video is about a 30 minute video by Ray Dalio, uh, from his book principles
for dealing with the changing world order.
And this is a 30, 40 minute video, highly recommended.
The link is in the show notes, of course, highly recommended, but we're
going to hit the top level thoughts to help us see how nations and
empires rise to the top of the world.
And how they fall.
What is the progression, which that helps us see why and what place we are in
history right now, when it comes to the current world order, when it comes to the
current state of America's power in the world, the dollars power in the world, and
what might happen as that shrinks as that, it's not going to shrink slowly over time.
And right now, It still has its dominance in the global markets,
but when the dollar is no longer the one world, the reserve currency
of the globe, it won't just shrink.
It will crash.
Miracle will go on just like UK has gone on just like France and the Netherlands
have gone on just like the Ottoman empire and in different varying degrees
have go on civilizations, continue even past their decadence in demand.
So it's not that America is going to cease to exist, but it's definitely going
to restructure the current power and trade and economic stability in the world
until a new world power fully emerges and brings a level of stabilization.
But will that be a stabilization that you and I like or want to
actually be a part of here's Ray Dalio on, uh, a couple clips.
His new book, and this is like a really cool infographic of video
that he's put together to really help explain how these shifts happen.
So first we're going to dive into, he's going to dive into the eight
principles and metrics that we look at that determine the strength of a empire.
And it looks at how these empires.
Come up from the ashes, come up from nothing into something.
Great.
And back into the ashes here is Bray in this study.
I used eight metrics.
Each country's measure of total power is derived by averaging them together.
They are.
Education inventiveness and technology development competitiveness in global
markets, economic output, share of world trade, military strength, the
power of their financial center for capital markets and the strength of
their currency as a reserve currency.
So we see here that there are eight.
Areas of society that one builds on another first.
It starts with education.
As a nation grows more educated.
They then are able to develop new tech and become innovative.
As they grow in their innovation.
They then become competitive in global markets.
People want to buy from them because they have new innovative technology
that then increases their economic.
There throughout the bottom.
So you're able to have cheap labor prices.
You're not the most expensive option on the market, but you're providing
a better product for less money.
And so the world starts to trade more and more with that nation with, as the trade
expands, the military is able to have more finances to protect their trade routes.
This.
Paul I'll finish this.
And then I'll say this.
This is why from the military strength, mostly guarding trade routes and
stability of their economic, uh, finance, financial, uh, state in the
world to protect your trade routes because that fuels the economy exports.
They then grow into a financial center of the world as they grow that up.
People want to buy.
The currency of that nation, whether it was the pound or whether it was
the dollar or whether it will be the digital yen in the future, we'll
see, they want to buy because they know this is a stable currency.
And if I have this currency, I can trade in this currency and it gives
me a level of stability, not only in my nation, but in my personal life.
Well, that's how it all rises.
Now.
This is one reason we have.
About the new silk road coming out of China.
This is why we've been talking about the quad versus China.
This is why we talked about what was happening in Miramar with the
revolution that took place in 2021, because of critical trade routes.
This is everything that we're seeing right now in Russia is.
About how pipelines are going to play a massive role into the future
that we are not done with oil or fossil fuels, but it is the driving
factor of energy consumption, which maintains and strengthens nations.
We talked about these fuel lines pipelines, the north one and two, we
talked about the Keystone pipeline.
We talked about pipelines that are being run across Saudi Arabia.
These are all, these are all critical infrastructures that build
an enable world power as well.
So Ray Dalio goes on to explain how these powers rise, how these powers fall.
And I think as we, as you listen to this, it will be very apparent.
It will be very clear.
We are right now in this cycle, which if we can figure out where we are,
we can figure out, we can understand and discern the hour that we're in.
And that will help us discern how to behave, how to act, how to react.
Because if you are in a, if you were in a market, Where everything
is going up, up, up, up, up.
You don't want to be just stacking your cash.
You want to be buying in the market.
But if you can see that there's about to be a crash.
What are you going to do with your finances differently?
Same thing.
If you, if you are planting your seeds in the middle of
winter, well, that's a bad idea.
You need to know what season you're in to know what activity to do.
If it's in the middle of harvest and you're just laying down.
Counting how much wheat you have and being super stoked that you're now
so rich, but you're not out in the field harvesting during harvest time.
You're going to lose your harvest.
We need to know the times and the seasons that we live in.
Maybe we can't change macro global economics, but we can
take action for our family.
Here's what.
By examining the sequences from many countries, we can see how a
typical cycle transpires and because the wiggles can be confusing.
We can simplify it a bit to focus on the pattern of cause effect,
relationships that drive the rise and decline of a typical empire.
So if you're listening on a podcast, 2.0 certified app, you can look down at
your phone right now and you can see.
The the, the different stages of an empire.
And when he's talking about these squiggly lines, he's talking about how
it's not just a clear one-to-one ratio.
It's these things, these different metrics of education, trade innovation,
military are going up and down at different points in a Empire's history,
but we can simplify it to able to see and have a framework to know where we are.
In.
In a timeline of an empire history relationships that drive the rise
and decline of a typical empire, as you can see better education
typically leads to increased innovation and technology development.
And with a lag the establishment of the currency as a reserve
currency, you can also see that.
Forces then declined in a similar water, reinforcing each other's decline.
Let's now.
So, as we said before, as we explained, one point leads to the other education
leads to innovation leaves, the competitive diff leads to economic
output, which finally leads to, but lags to be the global reserve currency.
Well, but then as all of these.
Metrics rise.
Education begins to fall.
Innovation begins to fall.
Competitive output begins to fall.
World trade begins to fall, and that then leads to.
And radio explains exactly what's happening in that decline.
Typical sequence of events going on inside a country that
produces these rises and declines.
In a nutshell, the big cycle typically begins after a major conflict.
Often a war establishes the new leading power and the new world order because
no one wants to challenge this power.
Peace and prosperity typically follows.
As people get used to this peace and prosperity, they
increasingly bet on it continuing.
They borrow money to do that, which eventually leads to a financial bubble.
The empire share of trade grows.
And when most transactions are conducted in its currency, it
becomes a reserve currency, which leads to even more at the same time.
This.
Prosperity distributes wealth on evenly.
So the wealth gap typically grows between rich halves and the poor have nots.
Eventually the financial bubble bursts, which leads to the printing of money
and increased internal conflict between the rich and the poor, which leads to
some form of revolution to redistribute.
Well, this can happen peaceful.
Or as a civil war while the empire struggles with this internal conflict,
its power diminishes relative to external rival powers on the rise.
When a new rising power gets strong enough to compete with the dominant power that
is having domestic breakdowns, external conflicts, most typically wars take place
out of these internal and external wars.
New winners and losers, then the winners get together to create the new world
order and the cycle begins again.
We can, we can really easily look at what's been happening in America
in the west to see where we are in this cycle with the current world
order, we can see that America's debt.
Well, over 20 23, 20 $4 trillion.
America keeps on printing more and more money to satisfy their debts gone
off the gold standard long ago, we saw in 20, 20 massive riots and unrest
across America, as, as people wanted to redistribute wealth as their chaos within.
The global power.
And that continues today where, where people are fighting in, fighting in
a nation over the distribution of wealth, over global warming over,
uh, environmental justice, as, as they are saying, environmental
justice, that printing of.
Is a sign of what's coming.
It's a sign of the eventual collapse.
Now this can be pushed off and kicked down the road for a number of
years, decades, but we already see with the uprising of other global
powers, challenging the strength of America on a global scale, especially
with this current conflict with.
In light of what has recently happened across the globe with deteriorating
relationships in the middle east, it is clear that we will be seeing
a new world order in our lifetime.
Maybe it will be in a number of short years.
Maybe we'll be in a number of long years.
I don't know.
And this.
This is troubling because it means that for all of us, it is
going to be a time of unrest.
And this is not just something that, as I said in the intro, that's coming
from global powers that be, or the new world order a secret society somewhere.
But this is the decadence of a society and that the moral
degregation of its character.
That then leads to cultural values that undermine the economic
strength, the character of a nation.
Those things when that fabric of society is completely undermined, there is no
other option, but for the fabric of society, the fabric of that power to fall
apart and a new power to rise, this is the course of history for hundreds and
hundreds, thousands of years, and will continue to be the course of history.
But we are living in the middle of that course of history and we need to know.
To defend against it, what to do to protect ourselves.
So first, a couple of quick points before we move on to, uh, yeah, that makes sense.
What can you and I do?
Well, first cash is.
The us dollar is going to continue to inflate.
So if you're saving money for that rainy day and you're saving it in the bank, in
the us dollars, that money is becoming worth less and less and less with every
passing day and week cash is trash.
Do not forward cash.
Don't go out and buy a new flat screen TV and a brand new
iPhone and stuff that you don't.
That's not the answer.
That's not, oh, Cassius trash.
I'm just going to spend it on random stuff.
Nope.
Invest it.
Invest the cash that you have in assets that will bring you back in investment.
That will bring you back the return on your investment, whether it's
investing in real estate or whether it's investing in your education
so that you can become someone who has an higher economic outlook.
But do not just hold onto cash because it is devaluing devaluing day in and day out.
Instead, take that and invest it and begin to invest whether it's in
your yourself, whether it's in your education, not necessarily meaning go
to university, unless you're becoming a doctor or engineer, but invest in ways
that you can become more competitive invest in your small business so that
it can become stronger and healthier.
Earn more than you spend or produce more than you consume.
Again, this is not just the hoarding of finances, but it's realizing that
there is going to, with the crushing of the dollar, there's going to be a lot
of unrest and you want to already have those disciplines in place to operate
in reserves, to operate in conservative.
So that you can build something from any others.
The third point is build character and a culture of servitude it's
through building our character and a culture of servitude that we can help.
Because there is a turmoil and a shaking that is coming and it's going to cause
many people to be in pain, many people to wake up and they're going to be
looking for someone who has the vision, strength and resources, and love and
kindness to help their community now be being a weak person and a broke person
is not going to do anybody any good.
Do not decide.
Well, it's all going to the pot.
So.
I'm just going to kick back and be a weak person and, you know, hopefully live off
the government and this ground around and you know, the dollar's devaluing anyways.
So might as well just be broke.
No, there's no brownie points for poverty instead become a
strong and a generous person.
Not you can't be strong, wealthy, and stingy that doesn't help anyone either.
But if you are a strong and a generous person, Who gives more than you take.
You will become a pillar in your society.
And people are going to need that in the days to come
in a post-truth society where we've exchanged truth for lies, and the reason
for postmodernity rationality, the absurd finally makes sense oil prices.
What everyone's talking about due to this.
Between war between Russia and Ukraine.
And no, we did not dive into exactly what's happening into
the Ukraine and Russia right now.
It's all over the place.
But I want to focus on this oil point is oil was up to
$130 a barrel just yesterday.
It's at $110 a barrel when I checked it this morning and who's responsible.
Well, here's Jen Saki in a press conference, March 9th, I believe,
uh, saying who's responsible.
It's definitely not president Joe Biden.
It is Putin.
According to.
I'm saying, I just never imagined to see the cost of will I be able to afford gas?
It is messaged to Americans who we're going to the gas station today.
Sorry, here we go.
Here's sockies here's sockies response to a question from a reporter.
The reporter was reading a.
From, uh, someone saying how horrible the gas prices are and it's
deeply concerning here's Jen sock is your response since message is
that he's going to do everything.
We can, everything he can to reduce the impact on the American people, including,
uh, the price of gas at the tank.
What is also true is that because of the actions of president Putin,
because he invaded a sovereign country that created instantly.
In the markets that is something the president talked about even before,
uh, Russia and president Putin move forward with their actions.
Uh, but we have already taken steps.
The president has already taken steps, historic release from the
strategic petroleum reserve one that's done in a coordinated fashion.
And clearly we will continue to have conversations with large oil producers
and suppliers around the world about how to mitigate the impact and, and
consider domestic options as well.
So she said, And the Biden administration says that, well, this, all these
high oil prices, really, this is just Putin doing because Putin invaded.
All of a sudden we saw a spike in oil prices.
It has nothing to do with policies in America.
Well, has been here on the show before, uh, he tweeted out just so you
know, the markets in oil prices aren't taking or shooting up because of.
This was all going to happen anyways.
And you look at the average us dollar gas prices and they are pretty low in 2020.
And then 2021 comes around.
A new president is seated and the gas prices climb, climb, climb, and
begin to spike before Russia invades.
Here is, uh, some more facts on the actions that Biden has taken.
This is from unwoke narratives are unwell media.
They compiled a list from NPR and Axios, from sources on actions and
gas prices that Biden has taken since he became president in January, 2021,
when the gas price was $2 and 33 cents.
Again.
Through an executive order.
Biden began halting oil and gas leasing on federal lands and water.
Same same time when he became president Biden, directed government
agencies have limit eliminate fossil fuel subsidies by 2022.
Come May, 2021.
When gas is at three 11 gallon Biden administration pressures, big bang.
Divest from traditional energy investments, AKA
fossil fuels in June, 2021.
Biden revoked the permit and canceled the Keystone XL pipeline
gas prices are up to three 15.
August, 2021 prices are at 3 25.
Called on Russia and OPEC to increase their oil production, to counter
the rising gas prices instead of increasing domestic production.
It's it makes no sense.
He's calling for other nations to increase their oil exports, which would strengthen
their nation so that we can import their.
Which was only going to weaken the U S economy.
I mean, decisions like these are definitely leading to the restructuring
of a new world order August, 2021 gases at 3 25 increased regulations and
scrutiny to punish and sanction the fossil fuel industry, December, 2020 1, 3 39.
Bolton bite halted, federal aid for new fossil fuel projects.
February 22nd, 2022, just moments before the Russian invasion.
So this is before the Russian invasion, when gas is at three 90
Biden, delayed issuing new oil and gas drilling, permits, and federal land.
So he's doing everything to stop America from producing more oil, which leads
to its economic strength and trade.
And instead we're doing.
The us dollar to other nations and asking them to pump more oil, March 8th,
2022 Biden banned Russian oil imports.
Other Europeans have not followed suit hurting America more than Russia.
Russia is just going to turn around and send the oil to China.
They'll find places to sell, sell it.
Gas is now over $4 a gallon for 25.
This has been a slow increase over a number of months.
Why, why, why would the Biden administration being doing this?
Well, the Biden administration has limited fossil fuel production and did little
to lessen its dependency with a lower supply and consistent demand, high prices.
Aren't surprising.
They're expect.
And this is an open strategy to push the American public, to
switch for renewable energies.
They're saying, Hey, I know, I know how we can get people to buy a new electric
car besides the fact that they're awesome.
We can make gas really high.
And then when people complain about not being able to pay their gas bill, we can
say, Hey, go out and buy an electric car.
If that's too much, if you can't afford gas by.
But you can't afford gas.
I don't think you're going to be able to afford an electric car.
Well, in the turn of ironies, where does Biden turn to try to find an
ally in his current oil crisis?
Well, none other than Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
The Saudi crown prince Mohammad bin Salman and UAE Sheikh Mohammed bin
Zayed on that here both declined the U S his request to speak with Mr.
Biden in recent weeks.
The U S official that the officials say that as Saudi and MRID officials
have become more vocal in recent.
Saudi and UAE are not happy with America's lack of support.
And they both declined to requests from Putin to say, Hey, let's get on the call.
We need to talk about Saudi and UAE increasing their oil supply.
The region here is becoming the relationships and becoming strained due
to the war in Yemen and due to Americans policies in the Gulf under Trump, it
was very, very strong, but Biden has definitely taken steps away even as
the UAE was bombed by who the rebels.
And we talked about that here on the show, the Saudis, this a wall street
journal report says the Saudis have signal that the relationship with
Washington has deteriorated under Biden.
They want more support for their innovation in Yemen, civil war help
with their own civilian nuclear program is Iran moves ahead and legal immunity
for Muhammad bin Salmaan who faces lawsuits over the killing in 2018 and
Morati share the same concern about restrained us response to recent missile
strikes by Iran back who the militants from Yemen in Yemen against the U S.
And Saudi Arabia, both governments are concerned about the revival of
the Iran nuclear deal, which doesn't address other security concerns of
theirs and has entered into the final stages of negotiation in recent weeks.
So here's America side.
Again, this is what the Obama administration did.
They're siding with Iran who is not our allies, not Americans,
allies, not the collegiate allies.
Once you develop Iran wants to develop nuclear weapons to bomb people in America.
The Biden administration decides that.
Yeah, it's a good idea.
We're going to play into that.
We're going to give and cut a deal with Iran, UAE and Saudi, not happy.
Moreover, they, the Saudis and Emiratis have declined to pump more oil.
Seeing that they're sticking with the production plan.
Between their group and OPEC, the organization of petroleum
exporting countries and a group of other producers led by Russia.
The energy Alliance with Russia, one of the world's top oil producers has
enhanced OPEX power while also bringing Saudi Emre and MRIs closer to Moscow.
So in order for them to the UAE and Saudi Arabia, Produce more oil.
They'd have to break an agreement with OPEC and Russia.
And frankly, because of the geopolitical situation and the deteriorating
relationships with America, they're saying, Hey, you're over a barrel.
Quite literally, you're stuck.
You got yourselves into this problem.
You created these dynamics in our relationship.
Your power has waned.
Your position has.
We are not going to bow to you anymore.
If you want to cut a deal with us, we can cut a deal, but
you need to fix these areas.
We're not just going to blatantly go along with what you're saying and what you're
doing as you destroy your own economy.
Bold move by UAE and by Saudi Arabia, one that I frankly agree with.
I.
It's like my, the old adage.
My problem is your emergency is not my problem, or your
problem is not my emergency, I guess, is how it actually goes.
Interestingly enough, however, Mohammed bin Salmaan
and shake Mohammed did not here did take calls and talk to president
Vladimir Putin last week after declining to speak with president.
And they also both spoke with Ukraine's president and the Saudi officials who
said that, uh, the us has requested that prince Mohammad bin Salman mediate
the conflict, which he said the kingdom of Saudi Arabia is embarking on.
So here Saudi Arabia is saying, you know what?
We are going to work to mediate between Russia and Ukraine.
We're not going to play this American geopolitical nonsense.
So we're going to try to find a middle ground.
Why, why would they do that?
Because they see that the power of America on a global scale is shifting.
They know that sooner or later the U S dollar will no longer be
the reserve currency of the world.
There are new digital currencies from government organizations springing up.
There will be a new one world currency, and they are being wise to.
Figure out, where are they going to land when everything comes down?

We'll be right back with our closing Weaver and loom segment.
Welcome back to Weaver and Luma part of the show where we take ancient
wisdom and we weave it in with our everyday lives so that we can own
our future and we've our destinies.
But with these global shakings, with the global trauma, Many of our hopes
and dreams are going to be dashed.
Many of our, the way that we thought that our lives, the world would go
to probably not going to turn out the way that we thought in the midst
of that disappointment in the midst of that pain and the midst of that
suffering, how will we respond?
What will be our response in the midst of all.
Well, there is a, a verse from scripture from the Bible that get this.
This one gets me every time when I read this one, I think
to myself, oh my goodness.
I, I need to watch my heart.
And it says now the just, or the righteous shall live by faith.
Faith is faith is the things that you can see.
With the eyes of your heart, the things that you believe and know
to be true, the promises that you believe are over your life.
That is faith.
So we, the, just the ones who live in walk, rightly in the earth, don't live
by what they see with their natural eye.
But they live by the eyes of faith.
They see something that is not as though it is, and they pull it into the
future and they manifest it through.
Through putting your hand to the plow and it goes on and says, but if anyone
draws back or other versions, say if you shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure
in him where I have no delight in him.
I will not be pleased with him.
Those people who live and walk, rightly you just sleep in the earth.
They live by faith, not sight, not by what they feel, not by what they see
around them, but they live by seeing a future and living for promises that
they know they're meant to fulfill, but have not yet been fulfilled yet.
There's probably delays in those promises.
But if anyone shrinks back, if anyone checks out, if anyone says, you know what?
Just.
You know what the situation is just too complex.
You just don't understand.
I'm just going to kind of check out if you shrink back, God has no pleasure in you.
No delight in you.
And this is a startling statement.
This statement is one that should cause.
To really think about how we are engaging our carts, our lives and
our thoughts in the coming weeks and months and years, because we will all
face trials and suffering in our life.
Just as I explained, a few weeks ago, we suffered a miscarriage that really
just, you know, hit my wife's and I's heart and just real complex way.
And it can be really easy for me to either grow.
For shrink back or say, yes, this is just too complex.
Just kind of give up a little bit, just kind of compromise on, on the dreams
in my heart a little bit, because it's just a little too painful to live.
Feels like everything is dead right now.
Everything is dead in the grave and I could just, I could check out
and no one would fault me for it.
No one would be like, yeah, it's, it's just, it's just hard, you know?
Sometimes these things just don't work out the way that you think.
And I could allow my heart to grow callous.
It's not feel that pain and feel that emotion and press on through it, or,
or instead of having my courage shrink up and shrivel up and shrink back
into my cave and just choose comfort.
Be like a lion and I could press forward.
I could demand in my life to fulfill the promises that I
know and believe and believe for them, even when I don't see them.
And that to do that, it requires you and I, you requires us
to allow our hearts feel.
To allow our hearts be touched by suffering to allow our hearts, to feel
the complexities that we face, where we say, I have dreams to be this.
I have promises to be this.
I know this is what I am called to do.
I know this is what I'm called to do.
And yet I thought it would be here by now.
I thought I'd experienced.
And we hold on to the tension in that place and we don't stop doing good.
We don't stop fighting for what we believe.
We don't trunk back.
We don't let our, our courage shrivel up like dried raisins.
Instead we move forward with boldness, even when it looks crazy, even when it
makes no sense, even when everyone says.
World order is changing, you know, just stack food in your fridge and dried,
dried, stored food and just, you know, play it safe and go off the grid.
And don't ever talk to people again.
Or you can say I'm going to stand up as a pillar, as a standard in
society, and I'm going to maybe.
Change the macro global economics.
Maybe I'm not going to touch millions of lives.
Maybe I'm not going to slow down or speed up any new world order process,
but I can help the people around me.
And one of the ways that you can help people around you is by sharing
this podcast with them, you can text it to them, WhatsApp it to
them, or posted on social media, but the greatest way that you can.
Your friends around you is by sharing things that you get value from, rather
than just ordering them to yourself.

And I will respond to you.
Thank you so much for your time today as the world shifts and changes.

globe are changing and more so align inside with character and morals and
values to go out and own the future.
