Stone buildings line a narrow cobblestone street at sunset, casting a warm glow. The sky is vibrant with shades of orange and purple.

THE MASSACRE OF THE INNOCENTS: When Demons Fear Babies and Kings Murder Hope - The Unvarnished Truth

Dusty, historic street with cobblestones, two people walking, baskets and pots scattered, walls stained red, and a warm, sunlit ambiance.

A Story That Will Shred Your Heart

Beloved, this isn't a sanitized tale. No pretty swaddling clothes here—only the blood-soaked streets of Bethlehem. This is the unvarnished truth.


Silhouetted figures walk under a dramatic, swirling red sky, casting an eerie mood in a desolate landscape.

Demonic Rage Behind Child Murder

If we don't grasp the DEMONIC RAGE behind child murder then, we cannot fight what's happening RIGHT NOW in 2025.


Roman soldiers assist an injured, anguished person on the ground. Onlookers watch with concern. Dusty, ancient setting; brown tones.

Babies Ripped from Arms

This is the story of babies ripped from mothers' arms, of toddlers silenced. Roman soldiers with swords dripping innocent blood, some weeping as they obeyed damned orders.


Person kneeling in desert with head in hands, surrounded by tents at sunset. The scene has a somber mood with an orange sky.

Rachel Weeping

This is the story of Rachel weeping—and it's time the Church stops skipping this critical chapter.

The Biblical Account

"Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.""Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not."— Matthew 2:16-18 (KJV)

Four verses. That's all Matthew gave us. But beloved, those four verses contain an ocean of tears, a mountain of corpses, and a prophetic pattern that keeps repeating through history.

Herod: The Demon-Possessed King


A stern-faced man wearing an ornate crown and rich robes stands in a dim, torch-lit stone chamber, exuding a regal and intense aura.

The Monster on the Throne

Let me introduce you to a monster. Herod the Great wasn't even fully Jewish—he was Idumean, descended from Esau. The Talmud (Bava Batra 3b-4a) calls him "the slave of the Hasmonean house"—a nobody who murdered his way to power.


He married Mariamne, a Hasmonean princess, to legitimize his throne. Then he murdered HER. And her mother. And her brother. And eventually THREE of his own sons when he suspected them of plotting against him.


Caesar Augustus said: "It is better to be Herod's pig than his son"—because as a nominal Jew, Herod wouldn't eat pork, but he had NO PROBLEM killing his children.


Newton's Notes on Divine Judgment

Isaac Newton calculated that Herod died in 4 BCE, shortly after the massacre. Newton wrote: "The slaughter of infants drew down swift vengeance—he who killed children died being consumed by corruption within his own body." Josephus documented Herod's final years: diseased, rotting, being eaten alive by worms and putrefaction.


The Massacre: Every Horrific Detail


"When he saw that he was mocked"

Greek: enepaixthē — "to be tricked, ridiculed, made a fool of." The Magi defied him. They went home another way. Herod's EGO was shattered. When narcissistic tyrants are humiliated? They LASH OUT.


"Exceeding wroth"

Greek: ethumōthē lian — "FURIOUSLY ENRAGED, burning with violent anger." Aramaic: ethhar takit saggi — "burned with great anger." This wasn't irritation. This was SATANIC RAGE.


"Sent forth"

He didn't do it himself. Cowards never do. He dispatched soldiers—likely 20-30 troops based on historical estimates of military detachments for regional operations.


"Slew ALL the children"

Greek: aneilev — "MURDERED, KILLED, DESTROYED." Not arrested. Not relocated. SLAUGHTERED. In Bethlehem and ALL the surrounding villages.

Bethlehem was tiny—maybe 300-1,000 residents total. Demographics scholars estimate approximately 10-30 male children aged 2 and under in that region. People say, "Well, that's not that many."


BELOVED, don't you DARE diminish it. EVERY SINGLE ONE was a WORLD. Every single one had a MOTHER who nursed him, sang to him, kissed his forehead. Every single one had a NAME. A FUTURE. A DESTINY.


The Soldiers and the Mothers


Men With Blood on Their Hands

Imagine you're a Roman-trained soldier in Herod's army. Orders come down: "Go to Bethlehem. Kill every male child 2 years and younger. No exceptions."

Some soldiers REFUSED—and were executed on the spot. So men who may have had consciences were forced to:


  • Kick down doors in the middle of the night

  • Rip screaming babies from mothers' arms

  • Stab toddlers with swords

  • Listen to mothers' wails that could shatter stone


The Talmud (Sotah 47a) affirms: "There is no agency for sin." Following evil orders doesn't excuse evil actions. Those soldiers bore BLOOD GUILT whether they wanted to obey or not.


Elderly woman with tears on her face clutches a patterned blanket, expressing deep emotion. Soft light and neutral tones set a somber mood.

Rachel Weeping

Matthew quotes Jeremiah 31:15: "Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not."


"Would not be comforted"—Hebrew me'anah lehinachem means "REFUSED comfort." Why? "Because they are not"—einennu, "they DO NOT EXIST ANYMORE."


You can't comfort a mother whose baby is GONE. You can't give her hope when her arms are EMPTY.


The Prophetic Pattern: It's Happened Before


Exodus 1:15-22


Pharaoh's Genocide

The king of Egypt commanded Hebrew midwives: "If it be a son, then ye shall kill him." Pharaoh tried to exterminate Hebrew boys because he feared a DELIVERER would rise from Israel.


Moses survived—hidden in a basket, raised in Pharaoh's house, trained to DESTROY the very system that tried to kill him.


Matthew 2:16-18


Herod's Holocaust

When the Magi revealed "he that is born King of the Jews," Herod ordered the slaughter of all male children in Bethlehem, 2 years and under.


Jesus survived—fled to Egypt, returned when safe, grew to DESTROY the spiritual principality that empowered Herod.


2025


The Modern Massacre

Different methods. Same demonic spirit. Same targets: THE INNOCENTS.

Abortion. Trafficking. Chemical castration. War. The pattern continues.


The Pattern Revealed

Demonic powers always try to kill the deliverer's generation BEFORE the deliverer manifests. This is the spiritual strategy behind every baby-killing genocide in history.


Why Tyrants Kill Children: The Demonic Strategy


Children Have Spiritual Authority

Matthew 18:10 — "Their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven."

Babies have DIRECT ACCESS to the throne room. That's why demon-possessed rulers FEAR them—children carry a purity and authority that exposes evil.


Babies Reveal God's Image

Genesis 1:27 — "God created man in his own image."

Every baby is Imago Dei—the image of God in human form. When you murder a child, you're attacking GOD'S IMAGE. Satan HATES the image of God.


Babies Expose Tyrants' Weakness

When a king murders babies, he's confessing: "I'm so WEAK, I fear a CHILD."

1 Corinthians 1:27 — "God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty."


2025: The Modern Massacre Is Happening NOW


ABORTION: Herod's Spirit in Law

Since Roe v. Wade (1973), over 63 MILLION babies have been aborted in the US alone. Worldwide? Over 1 BILLION abortions since 1980.

Proverbs 6:16-17 — "These six things doth the LORD hate... hands that shed innocent blood."


"My body, my choice" is the SAME SPIRIT as Herod's "My throne, my security." Both sacrifice CHILDREN for CONVENIENCE.


CHILD TRAFFICKING: Global Slave Trade

The UN estimates 1.2 MILLION children are trafficked annually for sex and labor exploitation. Children as young as INFANTS sold, raped, tortured, murdered.

Matthew 18:6 — "It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea."


GENDER IDEOLOGY: Chemical Castration

Pushing puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and surgical mutilation on CHILDREN is modern child sacrifice. You're sterilizing kids. Destroying their fertility. Mutilating their bodies.


This is MOLECH WORSHIP in a lab coat.


WAR-TORN CHILDREN: Gaza, Ukraine, Syria, Sudan


  • Gaza 2023-2024: Over 10,000 children killed

  • Ukraine: Thousands orphaned and displaced

  • Syria: Child soldiers, starvation, trauma

  • Sudan: Civil war creating famine and disease


Jeremiah 31:15 is FULFILLED AGAIN: Rachel weeping for her children in EVERY NATION.


THE PROPHETIC CALL: What We Do NOW


Beloved, you can't just WEEP for the babies. You must FIGHT for them. Here's your battle plan:


INTERCEDE - Stand in the Gap

Ezekiel 22:30 — "I sought for a man... that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap."


Pray for exposure of trafficking rings, overturning of abortion legislation, protection of children in war zones, and parents to WAKE UP and guard their kids.


EXPOSE - Shine Light on Darkness

Ephesians 5:11 — "Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."


Use your voice. Use your platform. EXPOSE the abortion industry, trafficking networks, gender clinics, and politicians protecting predators.


SUPPORT - Practical Kingdom Action

James 1:27 — "Pure religion... is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction."

Support crisis pregnancy centers, foster or adopt children, donate to anti-trafficking organizations, mentor single mothers, fund orphanages.


PROTECT - Guard the Next Generation

Psalm 127:3 — "Children are an heritage of the LORD."

Protect YOUR kids: Homeschool or vet schools carefully, monitor internet access, teach them about predators, train them in spiritual warfare. Raise them as WARRIORS.


PROPHESY - Declare God's Judgment

Psalm 94:1-2 — "O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth... render a reward to the proud."


Declare God's vengeance on child killers: abortion doctors, traffickers, predators, corrupt politicians. The Blood of the Innocents Cries Out. And Heaven is ANSWERING.

THE PROPHECY FOR 2025The Year of ExposureThe Lord showed me: 2025 is the year the MOTHERS ROAR. Rachel's weeping is turning to WARRING. The mothers who have lost children to abortion, trafficking, and violence are RISING UP.Watch for: Major trafficking rings exposed, abortion industry scandals, gender clinics shut down, political leaders falling.The babies didn't die in vain. Their blood TESTIFIES. And the Kingdom is ADVANCING.

THE SURVIVORS


You know what gives me hope, beloved? JESUS SURVIVED. Herod tried to kill Him. Egypt protected Him. And when the time was right, He RETURNED—and destroyed the spiritual principality that empowered Herod in the first place.


Every baby that survives the massacre is a DELIVERER in training. Every child you protect is a future WARRIOR. Every orphan you support is a MOSES waiting to confront Pharaoh.


DO NOT DESPISE THE YOUNG ONES. They carry MORE spiritual authority than you know.


This is MZ. AMAZING, speaking the word of the Lord:


THE MASSACRE ENDS NOW. THE BABIES WILL BE AVENGED. THE MOTHERS WILL ROAR. AND THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN BELONGS TO SUCH AS THESE.


For every baby killed in Bethlehem. For every Hebrew boy thrown in the Nile. For every aborted child. For every trafficked innocent. THEY WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN.


And vengeance is MINE, saith the Lord.
