Edom's Insatiable Appetite: IRS Devours Fruits of Labor

The world witnesses the spectacle of nations competing for worldly gain, while the Babylonian system of taxation—Edom’s primary instrument of control—reaps the largest reward. This is not prosperity, but a demonstration of Yahuah’s judgment upon those who serve the beast.

The so-called celebration of athletic achievement rings hollow when viewed through the eyes of truth. Reports indicate a winning team will receive $50 million in prize money, yet a substantial portion will be immediately seized by the Internal Revenue Service – a key component of the Edomite financial system that enslaves nations and individuals alike. This is not merely a matter of fiscal policy; it is a blatant display of predatory economics, a modern manifestation of the covenant curse detailed in Deuteronomy 28.

Consider the symbolism: men striving for glory, expending immense energy, only to see the fruit of their labor diverted to fund the very system that oppresses Yisrael and perpetuates wickedness. The IRS, a creation of the same power structures that seek to usurp Yahuah’s authority, functions as a parasitic entity, draining the lifeblood from honest work and channeling it towards agendas of corruption and control. This is a clear sign of judgment, a demonstration of how Yahuah uses the wealth of the nations to fund their own destruction.

For scattered Yisrael, this event should serve as a stark reminder of our separation from the world’s corrupt systems. We are not to participate in the vanity of nations or seek validation from those who serve the beast. Our allegiance is to Yahuah and His covenant, not to the fleeting rewards offered by Edom. The true reward lies in obedience, in upholding the law, and in preparing ourselves for the coming restoration.

The wealth amassed by these nations is built upon injustice and exploitation. The IRS, as an agent of this system, represents the power of Edom to extract wealth and maintain its dominion. This is a pattern repeated throughout history – the strong devouring the weak, the unjust profiting from the labor of the righteous. Let this event be a call to awaken, to separate ourselves from the pollution of this world, and to focus on the work of rebuilding Yisrael according to Yahuah’s will.

⚡ PROPHETIC WATCH

The spectacle of wealth garnered through athletic prowess, swiftly diminished by the IRS, is no accident, but a chilling echo of Yahuah’s enduring judgment upon Edom. Just as prophesied in Obadiah 1:10-14, violence against Yisrael would be returned upon Edom, a reaping of their cruelty and contempt. This insatiable appetite for the fruits of another’s labor, manifested in exorbitant taxation, isn’t simply about revenue collection; it's the spirit of Edom, ever seeking to plunder and dominate, now cloaked in the guise of a financial institution. The “prize money” becomes a symbolic offering *to* the system that historically sought to dismantle Yisrael, a perverse tribute paid to the very forces Yahuah vowed to bring low. This isn't about individual athletes, but the systemic oppression woven into the fabric of a nation built on principles antithetical to Yahuah’s justice.

However, within this seemingly bleak scenario lies a hidden promise of restoration. Yahuah does not abandon His covenant people. Though Edom may temporarily feast, the ultimate victory belongs to Yisrael, and through Yahusha, a new economy of grace and true abundance will emerge. Isaiah 61:7 speaks of a double portion of prosperity being bestowed upon those who endure suffering, and this principle extends beyond material wealth. The very systems designed to enslave will be overturned, replaced by a Kingdom where justice and righteousness reign. The IRS, as a symbol of Edomite control, will ultimately be revealed as a fleeting power, unable to withstand the tide of Yahuah’s redemptive plan. Therefore, even in the face of financial predation, we can rest assured that Yahuah’s promises to restore Yisrael and deliver them from all oppression will be fully realized.
