Ecl 1:9 - Solomon Said - (9 History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. 10 Sometimes people say, “Here is something new!” But actually it is old; nothing is ever truly new). • Two of the most famous of these Presidents who were 100 years apart had obviously God ordained parallels. • Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. • Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. • Both were concerned with civil rights. • Both their wives lost children while living in the White House. • Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. • Both Presidents were shot in the head. • Both were assassinated by Southerners. • Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson. • Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. • John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. • Both assassins were known by their three names. • Both names are composed of 15 letters. • Lincoln was shot at the theater named “Ford.” Kennedy was shot in a car called “Lincoln” made by Ford. • Booth ran from the theater and was caught in a warehouse. Oswald ran from a warehouse and was caught in a theater. • Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
A Short, Quick & Powerful Example of GOD'S Sovereignty in the World
What Solomon is saying is this - Everything that happened in the past is going to happen again. For this statement to be true, and we know it is true because the bible is GODS truth, there must be a hyper intelligence who is controlling all world events. If what happened in the past here on earth, keeps repeating over and over again, obviously this shows that GOD is truly completely sovereign over his creation. LOOK AT THE INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE BELOW.

Much has been said recently about the hidden powers that are manipulating the duped masses to get their man into office, and there is truth to this, but God is sovereignly behind it all to work His Will. Fleshly power, wisdom, manipulation, or money lifts no one up. The men of means do not rule this world by their own design; it only appears that way for God’s purpose. Just as God sovereignly puts into office, He takes out of office. He also gives us signs of this control along the way. The president in office on every twentieth year died in office until Reagan. 1840: William Henry Harrison (Died in office) 1860: Abraham Lincoln (Assassinated) 1880: James A. Garfield (Assassinated) 1900: William McKinley (Assassinated) 1920: Warren G. Harding (Died in office) 1940: Franklin D. Roosevelt (Died in office) 1960: John F. Kennedy (Assassinated) 1980: Ronald Reagan (Survived assassination attempt) 2000: George W. Bush? Why did this obvious pattern stop with Reagan and is he the last? God knows. I believe God used the faith and prayers of many Christians who knew about this cycle to bring it to an end. The millennial Sabbath or the actual year 6000 A.M. (September 2001-2002) may be the beginning of a new dealing with the sins of God’s people. Spiritually, according to type, judgment comes on those who do not cease from their works on the Sabbath.
Coincidence ? NO WAY!!! GODS CREATION IS FIRMLY UNDER HIS OWN CONTROL. GOD PLANS OUT ALL WORLD EVENTS AND PUTS IN THE SPECIFIC MAN OR WOMAN THAT HE CHOOSES TO LEAD EACH COUNTRY.
History keeps repeating itself over and over and over again. It is the same GOD who created us, who is putting into motion all world events from the begining of Genesis, to the very end of the book of Revelations.
GOD is completely in control of not only the world, not only our individual countries, but he is also in control of every single aspect of our lives.
Because GOD is in complete control of our lives, we are now able to rest from our worries and fears. We can now get up in the morning, casting aside all fears, and seek out JESUS with a restful spirit and mind.
IMPORANT
