The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s Contribution to the Kingdom of God | Eradicating Malaria and Manifesting Divine Purpose on Earth
In a world where disease and inequality persist, the efforts to combat malaria offer a beacon of hope for a future where the Kingdom of God is manifested on earth. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has taken a bold stance in the fight against malaria, with Melinda French Gates declaring, “Any goal short of eradicating malaria is accepting malaria, it’s making peace with malaria, it’s rich countries saying, ‘We don’t need to eradicate malaria around the world as long as we’ve eliminated it in our own countries.’ That is just unacceptable.” This sentiment aligns with the divine mandate to eliminate suffering and bring healing to all nations, as prophesied in the Scriptures.
Malaria Eradication: A Prophetic Reset of Mankind
Malaria is more than just a disease; it is an engine of inequality that disproportionately affects the poorest and most vulnerable communities. The Scriptures tell us in the World Messianic Bible, “For the poor you always have with you, but you don’t always have me” (John 12:8). The eradication of malaria is not merely a medical or humanitarian effort; it is a prophetic act that aligns with the divine plan for the restoration of humanity. The Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach, calls us to heal the sick, raise the dead, and proclaim the coming of the Kingdom of God (Matthew 10:8).
By striving to eliminate malaria, we are participating in the prophetic reset of mankind, moving towards the Messianic Age where suffering and death will be no more. This effort reflects the building of the New Jerusalem, the holy city that will descend from heaven as described in Revelation 21:2–4: “I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, ‘Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away.’”
The Role of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in Building the New Jerusalem
The work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in eradicating malaria can be viewed as a foundational step in the construction of the New Jerusalem. The eradication of this disease will lead to healthier, more prosperous communities, fulfilling the prophetic vision of a world where all people can thrive and worship Yeshua in unity. The Foundation’s commitment to innovation, political engagement, and the development of new technologies is crucial in achieving this goal.
In the context of Messianic Judaism, the eradication of malaria resonates with the prophetic promises of the millennial reign of the Messiah, where He will reign for 1,000 years (Revelation 20:4–6). During this reign, there will be peace, prosperity, and healing for all nations. The elimination of malaria is a tangible manifestation of this future reality, bringing us closer to the fulfillment of God’s promises.
The Significance of Hebrew Years 5784 and 5785 in the Build of New Jerusalem
As we approach the Hebrew years 5784 and 5785, we are entering a significant time in the spiritual calendar. The year 5784, according to Jewish tradition, marks the completion of a Shemitah cycle, a time of rest and resetting, much like the prophetic reset we see in the efforts to eradicate malaria. The Shemitah year is a time of release, where debts are forgiven, and the land rests, symbolizing a reset in our relationship with God and with each other (Leviticus 25:1–7).
The year 5785, following the Shemitah, represents a new beginning, a time to build and plant for the future. This period is crucial for laying the foundation of the New Jerusalem, both spiritually and physically. The eradication of malaria during this time aligns with the prophetic timetable, as it represents the healing of nations and the establishment of God’s Kingdom on earth.
Charting the Path Forward: KPIs and Progress from August to December 2024
As we move forward, it is essential to establish key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure progress in the fight against malaria and the broader goal of manifesting the Kingdom of God on earth. From August to December 2024, we must focus on the following areas:
1. Reduction in Malaria Cases: Track the number of malaria cases in high-burden countries and aim for a significant reduction by the end of 2024.
2. Advancement in Technology: Monitor the development and deployment of new technologies that contribute to malaria eradication, such as vaccines and mosquito control methods.
3. Political Commitment: Ensure continued political engagement at local, national, and international levels to support malaria eradication efforts.
4. Community Health Improvements: Measure improvements in community health and prosperity as malaria is eliminated, with a focus on the most vulnerable populations.
5. Spiritual Engagement: Encourage Messianic Jewish communities and believers worldwide to pray and engage in efforts to eradicate malaria, viewing it as a divine mandate.
Conclusion
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s efforts to eradicate malaria are more than just a philanthropic endeavor; they are a crucial part of God’s plan to restore humanity and bring about the Kingdom of God on earth. As we align our efforts with the prophetic timetable, particularly in the significant years of 5784 and 5785, we move closer to the fulfillment of the divine promises of healing, prosperity, and the establishment of the New Jerusalem. Together, through our faith and actions, we can see the manifestation of God’s Kingdom in our time.
