The “No Kings” protests erupting across America this weekend are not a grassroots cry for liberty. They are a brazen rebellion against the very order God established for nations, governments, and human society. While organizers cloak their movement in the language of resistance to “authoritarianism,” the Scriptures declare that all authority comes from God Himself, and those who rage against divinely appointed rulers fight against the Lord.
The Apostle Paul, writing under the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, settled this matter once and for all in Romans 13:1-2 (KJV): “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation.”
President Donald Trump was elected by the American people in a free and fair contest. To label him a “king” and organize mass defiance is not patriotic dissent — it is spiritual insurrection against God’s sovereign arrangement.
These protests, backed by a vast network of radical groups with billions in revenue, reveal the ancient spirit of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram who rose up against Moses, God’s chosen leader. Their cry of “No kings!” echoes the Israelites’ demand in 1 Samuel 8 for a human king like the heathen nations, rejecting God’s direct rule through judges and prophets. God warned them through Samuel that such rebellion would bring bondage, taxation, and sorrow. America is witnessing the fulfillment of that warning in real time as godless coalitions funded by globalist billionaires and communist ideologues seek to overthrow the constitutional republic established under Christian principles.
The family, the church, and civil government form the three God-ordained institutions of authority. The “No Kings” coalition attacks all three. They champion open borders that destroy national sovereignty, promote the slaughter of the unborn, and push the perversion of God’s design for male and female. Their revolutionary rhetoric — “disrupt and build power to win something new” — is the same language used by those who built the Tower of Babel in Genesis 11, seeking to make a name for themselves apart from the Creator.
Jesus Christ is the true King of kings and Lord of lords, Revelation 19:16 (KJV). When Pilate asked if He was a king, our Lord replied, “To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth” (John 18:37, KJV). The truth these protesters reject is that America was founded as a Christian nation under divine providence, with a Constitution reflecting biblical principles of limited government, individual liberty under God, and justice rooted in “Thou shalt not steal” and “Thou shalt not kill.”
Christians must reject the lie that resistance to lawful authority is virtuous. The early church submitted to Roman emperors while preaching the Gospel that would ultimately transform empires. They did not burn cities or embed revolutionary cells within protests. They prayed for kings and those in authority, as commanded in 1 Timothy 2:1-2 (KJV): “that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.”
The “No Kings” movement is rooted in the same humanistic rebellion that fueled the French Revolution and every Marxist uprising since. It denies original sin, rejects the need for a Savior, and seeks utopia through chaos. But Proverbs 14:34 (KJV) warns, “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” A nation that tolerates funded communist infiltration, celebrates lawlessness, and mocks God’s order will reap judgment.
Believers, stand firm. The battle is not against flesh and blood alone but against principalities that hate the name of Jesus. Pray for our President, for law enforcement, and for a great awakening that turns America back to the fear of the Lord. Proclaim that there is no king but King Jesus, and every knee will bow before Him — including those waving red signs and chanting for revolution. The remnant must shine as lights in this crooked generation, unashamedly declaring biblical truth while the world rages in vain.

Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.
