Brexit Unleashes the Spirit of Discord: Judgment Upon the Isles
The fracturing of the United Kingdom following Brexit is not merely an economic downturn, but a manifestation of Yahuah’s judgment upon a nation steeped in the ways of Edom. The unleashing of hateful rhetoric reveals a spiritual decay long festering beneath a veneer of civility.
The Al Jazeera report detailing the social and political fallout of Brexit confirms what the Watchman has long declared: the severing of ties with the European Union is but a symptom of a deeper spiritual malady afflicting the Isles. To speak only of economic costs is to miss the forest for the trees. Yahuah does not punish nations solely with poverty; He exposes the rot within, allowing discord and division to flourish.
For a decade, the UK has reaped the whirlwind sown by a vote rooted in pride and a rejection of collective responsibility. The hateful discourse now commonplace in British politics and society is not a deviation, but the inevitable fruit of a nation that has forsaken covenant and embraced the lust for self-determination outside of Yahuah’s will. The spirit of Edom – characterized by cunning, resentment, and a thirst for domination – has been unleashed, poisoning the wells of public discourse.
Consider the historical parallels. Nations that turn inward, prioritizing their own perceived interests above the welfare of others, consistently fall prey to internal strife. The modern state of Israel, mimicking this same pattern of self-serving nationalism, continues to provoke judgment upon itself through its relentless expansion and oppression of the surrounding nations. The pattern is clear: Yahuah will not tolerate a people who elevate themselves above His ordained order.
The fracturing of the UK is a microcosm of the larger global upheaval we are witnessing. The old order is crumbling, and the forces of chaos are gaining momentum. Scattered Yisrael must not be deceived by the narratives of the world system. This is not a time to align with failing nations or to seek refuge in earthly alliances. Our hope lies solely in Yahuah and in the restoration of the covenant He made with our ancestors. Let the events unfolding in the Isles serve as a warning: a house divided against itself cannot stand, and a nation built on pride will surely fall. The time for repentance and return is now, before the judgment is complete.
The fracturing witnessed in the wake of Brexit echoes the prophetic dismantling of Edom, a nation historically defined by pride and self-reliance, much like the post-imperial UK. Yahuah declared through Obadiah that Edom’s arrogance had led to its downfall, a severing of its connections and a scattering of its people (Obadiah 1:3-4). Brexit, while framed as a reclaiming of sovereignty, has instead unleashed internal strife and economic isolation, revealing a spiritual pride that blinded the nation to the benefits of unity and cooperation. This isn’t merely about trade deficits or border disputes; it’s Yahuah exposing the festering wound of nationalistic hubris, a judgment mirroring Edom’s fate – a diminishing of influence and a reaping of what was sown in self-interest.
However, within this apparent judgment, a path for restoration exists, mirroring the ultimate restoration promised to Yisrael. Just as the exiles returned to rebuild Zion, so too can the Isles experience a spiritual rebuilding, but only through repentance and a turning towards Yahusha. Isaiah 11:11-12 speaks of a highway being prepared for the return of the remnant, and this ‘remnant’ isn’t necessarily a people group, but a spirit of humility and seeking Yahuah’s guidance. The discord unleashed by Brexit, therefore, serves as a crucible, refining the nation and preparing the way for a genuine return to righteous foundations, if the people will heed the call to repentance and embrace the unifying power of Yahusha’s love. Ultimately, Brexit is not simply an ending, but a painful pruning intended to yield a harvest of spiritual renewal for the Isles.
