The sad reality of how non-discerning people are led astray
Have you ever wondered why there is such a vicious and never-ending war being waged against God-made non-toxic food, wholesome natural supplements, and alternative forms of healthcare and disease prevention? Have you ever wondered why an equally intense war is directed against those who profess faith in Jesus Christ?

The Bible clearly warns us to beware of mind-controlling influences in society.
Colossians 2:8 says:
“See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.”
It’s becoming increasingly apparent to even low-information voters in America that there is a spiritual – God originated – agenda behind the awakening recovery of righteousness in America.
The public acknowledgement of God’s saving intervention in the preservation Donald Trump’s life, followed by his astonishing landslide re-election to the office of the most influential position in the world, has had a huge public impact on at least the mental recognition that God is at work. Some other nations are experiencing fearless and godly voices arising to prominence in them … and that’s getting a lot attention as well.
Christian people are so busy doing whatever their immediate circumstances demand that they rarely take time to learn about the horrific tragedies that are happening to their fellow believers in many countries of the world. If most of us even take the time to pray about it, we hardly would think that there’s anything much we can do about it, besides giving money to help missionaries who are called to ‘disciple the nations.’ But if you stay with me today, you’re going to hear what could be one of the most world-changing possibilities that’s more realistic than we would ever have believed just a few months ago.
The whole world witnessed in the four years from 2020 to 2024, what some would say was the most tyrannical suppression of freedom in human history. Would you say that Almighty God has been using the horrible outcomes of recent times to awaken His people to prayer and action that is resulting in some pretty amazing changes in the affairs of whole nations?
I got an email from Neil Mammen, President of Values Advocacy Council, that presents one of the most assertive and timely plans for Christian people to pray about and act on that I could imagine for such a time as this. Because I thought this is so worthy of your time today, I’m going to share Neil’s message with you.
It begins with a stunning question: “What If Trump Did What No Other President Dared and Protected Persecuted Christians around the World?” [From email to subscribers on 5/27/2025]
If ever there was a super good reason for every American – especially Christians – to be seriously committed to be active and informed voters in all American elections, the history of America’s income tax must surely be a catalyst for all of us to urge others to be involved.
The discussion about possibly removing the burdensome tax on personal income, should lead us all to pray for God’s will to be done on earth as it is done in heaven… especially in this department of life. Wouldn’t that be something for every American to be seriously thankful to God about? Imagine if it could really happen in our lifetime?
Well, a little history of our American Income Tax system gives us some perspective.
Did you know there is an official agenda to replace the human race with robots, cyborgs and AI? That’s ‘artificial intelligence.’
As bizarre as that sounded just a few years ago, this agenda has been heavily promoted for decades by a coalition of many of the big-name national and corporate leaders in what is called the World Economic Forum. Their plan is to end the era of humanity and usher in a new era of neo-humanity. They intend to make people into a blend of man and machine. As unbelievable as it sounds, they confidently state that our thoughts and emotions will be monitored by AI – artificial intelligence – in order to combat … are you ready for it?… climate change! Is that the world you want for yourself and your children?
The more that the general public learns about this reprehensible plan, the more people are inclined to think that we might be living in the “last days” of this age or era of human history. We’re sure seeing a level of widespread evil in America like nothing since the mass exterminations of the 20th century.
The Bible tells us to be strong in the Lord… able to resist (stand against) in the evil day… doing everything to stand firm (Eph 6:10-14ff). Do you get the feeling that this is like divine marching orders for soldiers of Messiah? This is where we read in Scripture about God’s spiritual weapons of warfare – the full armor of God (Eph 6:14-18). Is God’s Spirit here speaking to cowards who are bowing to worldly lusts and discouraging cares? Remember, this is written to God’s true church – His Ekklesia – His divinely organic family – not to outsiders of His kingdom.
The problem with a lot of people, both Christians and pagans alike, is that they are inclined to be ruled by fear. Of all people, believers in the risen Messiah, must constantly keep in mind that fear is a spiritual ‘thing.’ It’s a ‘spirit.’ Scripture says that God has not given us a spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7). Rather than take the time and trouble to be informed, to overcome the ignorance that is leading lots of God’s people to destruction in various ways, their human tendency to fear what they can’t control naturally leads them to various forms of denial or cognitive dissonance. They either look away from the negative realities of the world that they don’t like, or they allow their minds to disconnect. It’s almost like they go into a kind of mental trance. Claiming they can’t do anything about their future, they rationalize to themselves that they should go along with the governing authorities in their lives, rather than rock the boat. I’m talking about their jobs, their clubs, their governments, … even their religious organizations. All of those seemingly well-meaning entities can… and will… let us down. That’s why Scripture proclaims “my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).” “My people go into exile for their lack of knowledge (Isaiah 5:13). With all the doctrines and dogmas that God’s people receive from their popular media prophets, religious priests and political ‘kings’, how many are diligently following the model of the believers of the town of Berea (Acts 17:10-11). They were commended because they “searched the Scriptures to see if these things be true.” Was what they were hearing from the Apostle Paul truly based on God’s Word? They dared to actually “test all things (1 Thessalonians 5:21).”
Many in the Western world have been conditioned by a lifetime of popular, repetitious, religious doctrines that they’ve never taken the time to investigate critically for themselves. Jesus prayed in John 17 for His disciples specifically (John 17:9). That passage is often called our Lord’s high priestly prayer of intercession for His flock of followers. He didn’t pray for the world, but for those whom His Father had given Him. Facing persecution, that’s promised to all who live godly in this world (2 Timothy 3:12), Jesus knew that there were severe trials ahead. That’s why He led the way it’s always been for God’s righteous people living in a hostile, fallen world. Think of Noah before the Flood. Think of Moses and the Israelites at the Exodus from Egypt. Think of Esther, facing all out extermination of God’s people. Jesus actually prayed, “Father, I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the (power of the) evil one (John 17:15).
Every generation of believers for 20 centuries has prayed “Thy kingdom come…” hoping for Messiah’s return. And they’ve suffered grievous tribulations at the hands of many “anti-Christs.” Has the mission assignment from our Master changed? Are we discipling the nations (the ethnos… the people group) that we’ve been delegated to serve with the ministry of reconciliation (2 Corinthians 5:18)? That’s a serious job… reconciling lost people to their Creator, Who sacrificed His only Son to be our Savior. It’s true that we share the same blessed hope of “His appearing” (Titus 2:13). But, to put all our hope in a miraculous escape, before the looming disaster ahead destroys the poor souls who are left behind… that could set us up for a terrible disappointment. Nevertheless, He says, “Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming (Mat 24:42).”
Many people today are awakening to the realities of how the societies of the whole world are being controlled and conditioned how to think. It’s happening all over the world, at the directions of extremely powerful people. The “plandemic” of 2020 truly began to expose the depth of nefarious evil, pulling the strings behind the scenes of modern civilization. But their agendas are becoming increasingly exposed as being led by evil entities that most Bible believers would label as demons or the Devil himself. For good reason… Scripture tells us…
“Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons (1 Timothy 4:1).”
The Apostle John wrote to believers in the first century that, “The whole world lies in the power of the evil one (1 John 5:19).”
“We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.” 1 John 5:19 NKJV
This can be scarry to those who don’t have a knowledgeable view of the world from God’s perspective. Fear is just as crippling to people today as it was to Saul’s army being challenged by Goliath. Yet God providentially prepared, in young David, a confident warrior to give us all an example of how to overcome God’s fear-mongering enemies with what the apostle Paul describes as “the weapons of our warfare” (2 Co 10:4).
We must be clearly aware which god we serve and if our actions synch with our choice.
“To whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are.”
Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
I urge you to watch the video online for free at the following link … and share it with all your friends if you care about them and their loved ones. Some of them are already hearing about this, and eventually, everyone will see parts of it playing out in front of them, but by then, it might be too late for them to change their direction toward their own destruction. That’s why they need the resources from reliable researchers who are committed believers in Jesus, willing to share the truth.
When you watch this very well-produced video report, you’ll see that it’s disturbing… even unsettling. There’s a biblical reason for that. Lost people don’t know they’re lost until they stare into the face of hopelessness or despair. Could it be that this discussion could open their heart and mind to their absolute need for “the only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord? (Jude 1:25)”
Did you know there is an official agenda to replace the human race with robots, cyborgs and AI? This agenda is being heavily promoted by the World Economic Forum. Their plan is to end the era of humanity and usher in a new era of neo-humanity, in which people are a mix of man and machine. They also state that our thoughts and emotions will be monitored by AI in order to combat climate change. Is that the world you want for yourself and your children?
Ending humanity to ‘save the planet’
Many of us – or our children – have been seeing things in the popular science fiction movies about robots taking over the world and eradicating humanity. But little do we know that this is exactly what is being prepared by today’s global leaders. It’s what they are promoting, developing, financing and calling for, all around the world. They are called globalists, because they essentially idealize the dissolving of independent sovereign nations, and putting ultimate authority over all humans on earth in a single corporate government.
The online collaboration of ideas called “Quora” has many definitions for globalism. They posted the simplest definition of globalization/globalism this way:
The Oligarch plan administrated by the British aristocrats calls for a Great Green Reset with simply only around 1 billion citizen slaves answering to a tiny dictatorship who would be controlling all of what they consider wealth on our planet – gold, $ and papers of ownership.
A man named Greg Oscar posted about globalism this way:
A group of gangsters in suits who are extremely powerful people that influence governments and corporations to implement a global agenda and control every facet of people’s daily lives. They don’t want unity between people; they thrive on chaos and disorder.
On September 24, 2019, President Trump started his speech before the United Nations General Assembly, telling the global body of world leaders that “the future does not belong to globalists. The future belongs to patriots.” Listen to a minute of what he told the world’s leaders at this epic gathering. https://youtu.be/7wJ8tdxDVgI?si=tHaVicMY_8LOh6rK
Didn’t president Trump lay out a clear contrast between globalism and national sovereignty?
The globalists even claim that this is the only way to save the Earth from total collapse. Without exiting the era of mankind and entering into the era of NEO-HUMANITY, the world is doomed, they say. One of their arguments is that humans are the cause of climate change, and must therefore be replaced with artificial alternatives to “save the planet”.
This worldwide reformation is called “The Fourth Industrial Revolution” and is intended to completely digitize every aspect of life on Earth.
The film production of David Sorensen’s excellent online channel, Stop World Control.com is: “THE END OF HUMANITY.” It exposes this global agenda vividly, so there can be no doubt about what the globalists are actively working to achieve. The general public is being too distracted by the challenges of today’s economic and social/political turmoil to even know that this global agenda is being forcefully promoted with massive support from the most powerful organizations worldwide.
This documentary is not just a film that everyone ought to see. This is a sobering reality that will wake up many of our friends who’ve been stuck, listening to main stream media.
Klaus Schwab, founder and chairman of the World Economic Forum, stated during the recent World Government Summit in Dubai:
“The future is already here. It’s coming like a tsunami! This Fourth Industrial Revolution will not only change everything we do, but it will have an impact on who we are.”
It’s unbelievable when you first hear it, but major technological developments are underway to transplant the human personality into robotic carriers, to give man artificial immortality. This is the ultimate dream of the elites: to become immortal.
Robots are already replacing nurses, social workers, psychological assistants, doctors, cashiers, cooks, and even law enforcement officers, in several areas of the world. The first computer chips are already being implanted into humans. The blending of man with machine is a reality. AI is taking the world by storm, replacing millions of human jobs and making human employees seemingly unnecessary.
The horrifying thing is that specifically those sensitive jobs where people need a human touch, true understanding and emotional support are being replaced with robots. Can you imagine being taken care of by a robot in the hospital or nursing home? That’s exactly what is happening. Removing the human experience, which is so precious, beautiful and deep, and replacing it with unfeeling robotic alternatives. We’ve already been set up for it with all the automated self-check-out lines at grocery stores
Inserting thoughts and emotions into everyone
At the same time, technologies are being installed in every nation of the world that will continually record all the thoughts, emotions and dreams of everyone. These technologies even have the ability to insert thoughts and emotions into the population. That is not a conspiracy theory, as it is publicly stated by the former president of Chile, Sebastian Pinera, and by the Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum, Ida Auken, former minister of the environment of Denmark.
In Europe, the public ‘School TV’ tells kids how ‘cool’ it is to have a chip in your brain.
Google is organizing symposia declaring how humans will become one with computers, while the CEO of Nokia says that, in a few years, everyone will have their smartphones inside their body. This means that every detail of our lives can be constantly monitored. Meanwhile, the World Economic Forum hosts conferences about ‘brain transparency’, discussing how all our most intimate, personal data will be stored in the cloud and controlled by Big Tech.
All this falls in line with the announcement of the WEF that by 2030, no one will have any privacy. Klaus Schwab says we will have to get used to a society of “full transparency”, where everything we think, feel and dream is monitored.
The film “THE END OF HUMANITY” is a warning to mankind, intended to prevent this nefarious plan and to save the human race, from both eradication and from this extreme form of slavery.
Shortly after the release of this video on StopWorldControl.com, a great grandmother viewer wrote a pathetic comment, attempting to get others to take its message seriously. She wrote:
“For those of you who say, “we don’t need to “OBEY” these psychopathic narcissists, let me remind you that there are any number of ways that “THEY” Klaus Schwab, Harari, Gates, Fauci, Soros et al have of getting “their TECHNOLOGY INTO YOUR BODIES”. You don’t necessarily have to “line up for the next injection (she called it ‘CONVID QUACCACINE’) to get implants, RFID’S etc. When it’s nanotechnology being used, it can be put into anything you eat or drink. When these narcissistic psychopaths are already referring to themselves as “BETTER THAN GOD” you should already know that they already have the necessary “technology/medical technology” in place to put whatever they want into our bodies. When these cretins who refer to themselves as “the elites” are already telling us that we are nothing more than “HACKABLE ANIMALS” and the “USELESS CLASS” you can be sure that it’s already too late for humanity.
In light of all this, do you think Romans chapter one is worth sharing with others now?
Urging your fellow human beings – made in the image of God – to “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness” (Matt 6:33) – is the first step for any of us to experience “the peace of God that surpasses all comprehension (Phil 4:7).”
Pray about whom God’s Spirit is guiding you right now to invite into this discussion. Then ask them if they would listen to what you share and offer to pray with them for God’s next step in their walk with Him. Then you can be used by God to show them the way in His Word, where they will discover His amazing grace and the only hope for their future – a future where they will participate in the exposure of more darkness and the expansion of Messiah’s kingdom.
The Just Live by Faith
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek (gentile). 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.”
God’s Wrath on Unrighteousness
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.
24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, 30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; 32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Hearing those words evokes conviction and exposure of those who are lost on a path of destruction, but Psalm 34 reminds us that …
“The LORD is near to the brokenhearted, and saves those who are crushed (contrite) in spirit” Ps 34:18.
Psalm 34 strengthens our resolve to keep our eyes on Jesus, no matter what fearful storms assail our journey…
‘I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make its boast in the LORD; the humble shall hear it and rejoice. O magnify the lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. I sought the LORD, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.’ (Ps 34:1-3).
And while you’re in the neighborhood, swing by Psalm 57 where we join David when he fled from Saul in the cave saying…
‘Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, for my soul takes refuge in Thee; and in the shadow of Thy wings, I will take refuge, until destruction passes by. I will cry to God Most High, to God who accomplishes all things for me. He will send from heaven and save me; He reproaches him who tramples upon me. [Selah] God will send forth His lovingkindness and His truth (faithfulness). Psalm 57:1-3.
And don’t miss one of the greatest promises for God’s people during times of divine judgment on the wicked of a generation… Isaiah 26
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee because he trusts in Thee” … (Isa 26:6) … and finally … “Come, my people, enter into your rooms, and close your doors behind you; Hide for a little while, until indignation runs its course…” (Isa 26:20).
Everyone has a worldview, but relatively few people see their world through the eyes of the Bible, even among those who call themselves Christian.
The Great Commission
Christian people across the world are well familiar with what we call “the Great Commission.” Jesus, after his resurrection, just before he ascended into heaven, spoke these words to his disciples:
“All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matt 28:18-20
Many pastors who avoid debatable or political/social topics, claim they are ‘just called to preach the gospel.’ Others avoid contemporary arguments in society by sticking to their preaching and teaching schedule. These seem to be noble practices to most Christians, but do you think it’s only fair that those who sit down to dine at the table of where they get their spiritual food each week have a responsibility to humbly challenge their spiritual teachers to address controversial topics that are relevant to the issues we all struggle with that are going on in our world today?
The entire world of humanity witnessed one of the most pivotal events in history on January 20th 2025. That reality of what began to happen then was well-expressed in the opening remarks of Donald Trump’s first address to our nation, eight minutes after taking his oath of office as the 47th President of the United States of America.
TRUMP: “The golden age of America begins right now!” (applause) From this day forward, our country will flourish and be respected again all over the world. We will be the envy of every nation and we will not allow ourselves to be taken advantage of any longer. During every single day of the Trump administration, I will very simply put America first.
The overwhelming election of Donald Trump in 2024 is the defining moment of history for our generation… as much as the Emancipation Proclamation was in Abraham Lincoln’s generation. Now the stage is set for the world-defining battle of our generation.
If ever there was a time in our generation for all of us, as believers in Almighty God, to rejoice with thanksgiving and humble reliance on our Savior’s mercy… Now this is that time.
We have cried out to God for His deliverance… from what seemed to most of us to be the potential end of American sovereignty… and He has graciously … in His sovereign rule as King of all kings… allowed us – as a nation – His temporary reprieve from what has seemed like inevitable judgment to most Christian students of history.
Looking at many of the defining markers of a culture, the moral landscape of American society is inescapably identified by things that most fair-minded people would label as worthy of judgment. Even the typical, relatively law-abiding citizen of this country, would likely admit that we are more preoccupied with tolerating evil than doing much to stop it.
We are humbled by God’s mercy to withhold what we, as a nation deserve, while granting us, who are called out to be His ‘salt and light’… the opportunity to change our course as we look to the leadership for the next generation.
And what a remarkable slate of victories is given to us to steward now!
At the top of the list, Trump won the popular vote… that means he received over 50% of all the votes across the nation that were cast… with over 72 million votes.
Trump secured the Electoral College in excess of the 270 votes needed to win… mayb as many as 300
The GOP won the Senate majority with 54+ seats.
The GOP won the House of Representatives majority.
Trump has the support of the Military.
Trump has the support of the majority of the Supreme Court.
Most important… Trump has the confident support of the majority of the people.
Trump’s comeback win is undoubtedly one of the most significant accomplishments in America’s political history. Even his enemies have resentfully admitted this.
I think it’s helpful for us to hear some of the comments from President elect Trump during his victory speech after 2am in the night after the voting places closed on November 5th.
Trump addressed supporters following the victory, acknowledging God’s protection on his life.
TRUMP quotes from his 2024 election victory speech:
4:20 “America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate…
19:19 “This will forever be remembered as the day the American people regained control of their country.
22:13 “This is also a massive victory for democracy and freedom. Together, we’re going to unlock America’s glorious destiny. We’re going to achieve the most incredible future for our people.
23:08 “Many people have told me that God spared my life for a reason. (cheers) And that reason was to save our country and to restore America to greatness. Now, we are going to fulfill that mission together. We’re going to fulfill that mission. The task before us will not be easy but I will bring every ounce of energy, spirit, and fight that I have in my soul to the job that you’ve entrusted to me. This is a great job.. there’s no job like this. This is the most important job in the world. I will govern by a simple motto: Promises made – Promises kept.”
We all know that America has no king but “We the people.” But we realize that we delegate our authority to those elected to represent us. Unfortunately, for many generations.. all too many of our elected representatives have sold the influence they are assigned to wealthy corporate tycoons who put their own interests ahead of the American people. That’s why the MAGA movement has motivated so many voters to put their trust in a man who has demonstrated by his actions that he serves his office as executive with noble character, worthy of that trust.
We know that the deeply corrupted political elite class… and all the heavily deluded supporters of the losing side of this war between God and evil… are continuing to do whatever they can to disrupt and demoralize the citizens of the country. But that gives all of us ..all the more motivation to work hard and continue praying for what is now the very real hope for positive changes ahead in our communities across the land.
Hope for a stop to the massive illegal immigrant invasion fostered by the previous administration.
Hope for the removal of the threat of war and the fear of sending our sons and daughters into foreign wars.
Hope for the rightful prosecution of all those who’ve participated in the scandalous trafficking of children and others, used to devastate the morality of our generation.
Hope for eliminating huge economic waste in the governmental administration of our country.
Hope for the removal of wicked authoritarian mandates leading to the demoralization and literal destruction of millions of lives under the guise of public health regulation.
Hope for the return of public education policy-making to the states of our republic.
Hope for the return of jobs to Americans that were exported unnecessarily to foreign nations.
Hope for the elimination of abusive and unnecessary taxation of American families.
Hope for the return of the ability of working families to educate their children according to their personally held values and beliefs.
Hope for the return of basic freedoms to peacefully speak out in public without fear of being censored, marginalized, and demonized by corrupted agents of corporatocracy.
Hope for the increasing courage of Christ-loving people to influence every sphere of life in this country for the glory of God.
Hope for the invigoration of the younger generation with a strong moral cause to fight for the righteous goals of humanity.
Hope for the total exposure of the insanely ridiculous ideas embraced by immoral globalists to confuse our young people about their awesome unique identity in the image of their Creator.
Hope for opening of our younger generation’s spiritual ‘eyes’ to see and embrace the amazing grace and mercy of our Savior.
Hope for the return to the naturally healthy and simpler ways to stay healthy through food and medicine that is not dictated by big corporations whose only motive is profit.
Hope for the removal of America’s support for globalist-run international agencies like the UN.
Our Divine Mandate to Pray for Rulers
As always, God’s people must do what Paul admonishes us in 1 Timothy 2:1-4.
“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.”
This is compelling reasoning for us to vote for those in authority who best reflect our Creator’s order for their assignments. That way we can “pray for those in authority” … knowing that we may lead quiet and peaceful lives… and be able to share the gospel with everyone we are entrusted to influence for God’s glory.
Proverbs 21:1 reminds us, “The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, like the rivers of water; He turns it wherever He wishes.”
Daniel the prophet made an historic declaration when he, as a young prisoner of Babylon’s King Nebuchadnezzar, was faced with the impossible task of determining the very essence of the king’s dream, as well as the interpretation of it. It is written in the second chapter of Daniel’s book in the Bible.
He wrote: “Let the name of God be blessed for ever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him. It is He who changes the times and the epochs; He removes kings and establishes kings; He gives wisdom to wise men and knowledge to men of understanding” (Daniel 2:20-21).
This, and other Bible passages, leads us disciples of Jesus Christ… to acknowledge that God Most High is sovereign of all earthly rulers and monarchs.
1 Chronicles 29:11-12: “Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Yours is the dominion, O Lord, and You exalt Yourself as head over all.”
1 Timothy 6:13, 15: “…God Who gives life to all things…is the …only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords.”
Psalm 47:1-3 “Oh, clap your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph! For the LORD Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth. He will subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.”
Now that we know the undeniable choice of America’s voting citizens, the great choice before us all is “will Americans, with hearts for righteousness …prioritize their commitment to fight for their sons and daughters… by engaging in the battle for the exaltation of truth… in a world darkened by strong powers that are committed to the destruction of our Almighty God’s kingdom of Light and Life?”
When the pioneering people of Nehemiah’s time – when he was commissioned to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem – were threatened by embedded enemies, they were encouraged to take courage.
Nehemiah told the people, “Do not be afraid of them; remember the LORD who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses” (Neh 4:14).
And get this… it applies so much to what has been recently happening in our own nation. Nehemiah 4:15 tells us, “And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that their plan was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.”
Did you hear that? When did Nehemiah report that all of his people returned to their work on the wall? It was when their enemies heard that their evil, destructive plans were made known to Nehemiah’s people. That was when God brought their counsel to nothing… no doubt giving great encouragement to the people of God to focus completely on their work.
In the providences of the Most High God, we can see in the events of history… many parallels with how God’s redemption reflect familiar Bible accounts. The many disturbing events that led up to God’s virtually miraculous restoration of President Trump to the leadership of what we call the modern ‘free world’ have been difficult for all of us to experience. But… without them we would not have the exposure of the evil that has been secretly behind the scenes of so much wickedness in our world. And now that the great awakening of millions of people across the world has begun, we have more reason than ever to expect that God is leading the remnant warriors in His kingdom to participate in the salvation of millions who will be equipped to fight the good fight of spiritual warfare to destroy the works of the devil in our time. Do you recall how the LORD’s word to Moses encouraged the people in Deuteronomy as they prepared to begin the conquest of the promised land full of giant enemies of Yahvay? It’s in chapter 7… where we’re told…
Deuteronomy 7
21 You shall not dread them, for the LORD your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God. 22 The LORD your God will clear away these nations before you little by little; you will not be able to put an end to them quickly, for the wild beasts would grow too numerous for you. 23 But the LORD your God will deliver them before you, and will throw them into great confusion until they are destroyed.
Now that God has given His victory over the evil forces that hindered His uniquely appointed ‘Sampson’ to bring deliverance to Americans, who’ve been ‘groaning’ under ridiculous puppet leadership… are you ready for the end of the deep state?
Listen to President-Elect Trump’s Plan to Dismantle the Deep State and Return Power to the American People.
President Trump’s Plan to Dismantle the Deep State and Return Power to the American People. Here’s my plan to dismantle the deep state and reclaim our democracy from Washington corruption once and for all, and corruption it is.
First, I will immediately re-issue my 2020 Executive Order restoring the President’s authority to remove rogue bureaucrats. And I will wield that power very aggressively.
Second, we will clean out all of the corrupt actors in our National Security and Intelligence apparatus, and there are plenty of them. The departments and agencies that have been weaponized will be completely overhauled so that faceless bureaucrats will never again be able to target and persecute conservatives, Christians, or the left’s political enemies, which they’re doing now at a level that nobody can believe even possible.
Third, we will totally reform FISA courts which are so corrupt that the judges seemingly do not care when they are lied to in warrant applications. So many judges have seen so many applications that they know were wrong, or at least they must have known. They do nothing about it, they’re lied to.
Fourth, to expose the hoaxes and abuses of power that have been tearing our country apart, we will establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to declassify and publish all documents on Deep State spying, censorship, and corruption, and there are plenty of them.
Fifth, we will launch a major crackdown on government leakers who collude with the fake news to deliberately weave false narratives and to subvert our government and our democracy. When possible, we will press criminal charges.
Sixth, we will make every Inspector General’s Office independent and physically separated from the departments they oversee so they do not become the protectors of the Deep State.
Seventh, I will ask Congress to establish an independent auditing system to continually monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people, or that they are not spying on someone’s campaign like they spied on my campaign.
Eighth, we will continue the effort launched by the Trump administration to move parts of the sprawling federal bureaucracy to new locations outside the Washington Swamp. Just as I moved the Bureau of Land Management to Colorado, as many as 100,000 government positions can be moved out. And I mean immediately out of Washington to places filled with patriots who love America, and they really do love America.
Ninth, I will work to ban federal bureaucrats from taking jobs at the companies they deal with and that they regulate. So they deal with these companies and they regulate these companies and then they want to take jobs from these companies. Doesn’t work that way—such a public display cannot go on and it’s taking place all the time, like with Big Pharma.
Finally, I will push a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.
This is how I will shatter the deep state and restore government that is controlled by the people and for the people.
Thank you very much.
Wow… After hearing President Trump declare these much-needed plans to restore the control of America’s government to ‘We the People,’ all of us certainly should have great relief and much reason to rejoice for the ambitious future and hope that has been set before us. We must ramp up our intercession as never before. We must declare truth like never before. We must disciple the next generation like never before. We must take our ‘We the People’ position as ‘King” in America like never before. In the simplest summary of our assignment… we must restore the conscience of Believers to truly be the ‘salt and light’ as our Savior’s Ambassadors to a generation that’s been held hostage and is about to be set free.
The fierce war in heaven
There is a fierce war going on in the spirit realm …and millions of believers are awakening to the reality of it… so they can join their own souls to the righteous eternal cause of our Heavenly King.
Remember… the last book of the Bible – Revelation – tells us, “They overcame their enemies by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.” (Rev 12:11). But the principle of that future expectation of prophecy has application even in today’s drama of the war between good and evil. Hear the passage that begins in verse 7 of Revelation 12…
7 And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. The dragon and his angels waged war, 8 and they were not strong enough, and there was no longer a place found for them in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying,
“Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God, day and night. 11 And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death. 12 For this reason, rejoice, O heavens and you who [dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time.”
God is not yet finished with the nation we call America. He’s not finished with His people. He’s not finished with you and me. We’ve been given assignments to be Watchmen on the walls of humanity. (Ezekiel 33) We are empowered with spiritual gifts by the Spirit of our Savior to cast down every evil imagination raised up against the knowledge of God (2 Cor 10:5). But it takes our personal commitment to ‘ABIDE’ in His Word (John 15:7). Only in His Word are we able to be “wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus” (2 Tim 3:15). And that is only possible because His Word really is “profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” … so “that the man o f God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works” (2 Tim 3:17).
By God’s inexhaustible grace we are given the capacity to be both ready and able for the work that has been set before us. If there’s anything that God has shown me through the gifted tenacity and tempered endurance of Donald Trump, it is that God’s people are seeing a living example of the relentless nature of our Redeemer to endure the battle against evil to the end with both courage and confidence in the purpose our Creator places in each of us.
Greater is He that is in us than He that is in the world (1 John 4:4)… Therefore…
I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me (Phil 4:13). Why? Because…
“He is able to do exceedingly, abundantly beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works within us.” (Eph 3:20).
Therefore, let’s all be careful how we walk in this world… not as unwise men, but as wise… and make the most of our time because we know the days are evil (Eph 5:15-16).

For many listeners who may not be familiar with finding various recordings they’d like to access on the Internet, it’s helpful to have a list of favorite sources handy. That’s why I’ve posted an alphabetized list of some of the key content providers for listeners to Reclaiming Your Legacy. I invite you to look it over. And copy and paste it into a document that you can print out if that helps you to find these websites later on. Most of these gifted speakers, presenters, authors, and podcasters were completely unknown to most of us before the 2020 Plandemic. Now, many of them are becoming household names… especially to God-fearing believers who love their country and want to do everything possible to share the truth with the next generation. I’ve highlighted some that I particularly appreciate for the profound insights they’ve enabled me to discover through their determined efforts.

Proverbs 29:2 observes a fact about the result of influence in a culture for good or bad. It says, “When the righteous are in authority and become great, the people rejoice; but when the wicked man rules, the people groan and sigh.”
After living through the social and political roller coaster of the last decade of American society, that Scripture passage in Proverbs 29 certainly bears witness for all of us, doesn’t it? Let me read it again with some amplification…
“When the (uncompromisingly) righteous…” (i.e. those who are godly and in right relationship with Almighty God)… when that kind of people “flourish by increasing in number and in authority over the land, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan as if in mourning.”
We’ve all endured a lot of groaning and complaining going on particularly about the wicked corruption in the ruling class, haven’t we? People have good reason to complain about the compromised morality of all kinds that goes on at every level of society.
It’s natural to look at that, as most of us always have, and complain about the influence of wicked rulers, but isn’t it interesting to reflect on that proverbial insight in light of the contrasts that we’ve seen under the dramatic differences in federal administrations of the past 8 years.
There’s another timely observation in Proverbs 28:1. It tells us that “The wicked flee though no one pursues, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” … It goes on to say in verse 2, “When a country is rebellious, it has many rulers, but a ruler with discernment and knowledge maintains order.”
What a thought-provoking observation of contrasts! Do you see it? The upstanding Righteous leaders who are bold as a lion… are as different from the wicked who are fearfully looking over their shoulders because of all the wicked deeds that have earned them many enemies… as the wise, discerning, and organized ruler is peculiarly distinct from the multitude of bureaucratic rulers of a land of cowering rebels.
Benjamin Franklin wrote that “A nation of well-informed men who have been taught to know and prize the rights which God has given them cannot be enslaved. It is in the region of ignorance that tyranny begins.”
When you return from a day at work, or out shopping, or driving on the highways, or just interacting with the general public, would you say that the God-fearing, morally pure population of your country is “flourishing” and increasing in authority over the land?
Remember… all that must happen for evil to flourish in a culture is for the good people to keep quiet and do nothing. Light dispels darkness. It’s not the other way around.
It’s no wonder the enemy of humankind successfully deceives so many to think they should just let their little light be hid under a ‘basket’ and cower in the shadows of the evil influences. That’s how to keep low-information voters in the dark, ignorant, and fear-filled by whatever demonic deception they think they can’t overcome by faith in the Giver of all good things from above.
A 2020 Barna survey of Americans found that while 51% of American adults said they have a “biblical worldview,” only 6% of American adults actually hold this worldview with core Biblical beliefs… You know… basic things like:
Jesus is the sinless and eternal Son of God,
the Bible is totally true in all its moral principles, and
salvation is on the merit only of Christ’s sacrifice.
Yet, a 2020 Pew Research study discovered nearly two-thirds of Americans (65%) actually believe that UFOs are really proof that intelligent life exists on other planets. So, did you catch that? A whole lot more Americans believe in extra-terrestrials than believe in the God of the Bible! What have they been listening to? How could they be so off track?
[For the purposes of the Barna survey, a “biblical worldview” was defined as believing that absolute moral truth exists; the Bible is totally accurate in all of the principles it teaches; Satan is considered to be a real being or force, not merely symbolic; a person cannot earn their way into Heaven by trying to be good or do good works; Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on earth; and God is the all-knowing, all-powerful creator of the world who still rules the universe today. In the research, anyone who held all of those beliefs was said to have a biblical worldview. the Barna website: www.barna.org .
By the way… if you want to get Biblical perspective on that topic – UFOs and E.Ts – it’s really pretty simple. There are only two possible explanations. And neither of them fit with the delusions of the Star Trek fantasy that created conscious physical beings from some faraway planet are probing Earth from millions of miles out in space. There’s a section in my book, Unlocking the Mysteries of Creation, that helps simplify that confusion.
In a 2020 interview on CBN news with pollster, Dr George Barna that was recorded early in the Covid pandemic crisis, it appeared most American Christians were motivated by fear, and seeking solutions from government rather than from God or the Bible (see the report at https://youtu.be/oRYVEdnWKWY).
Hearing that, do you think God’s providential appointment and removal of national rulers, like the Bible says in Daniel 2:21, might correlate with the spiritual and moral temperature of the population base? History has tended to reflect that a generation gets the leadership of its own making. Yet, you’d find it difficult to find even 10% of our nation’s church leaders laboring to influence their congregations with Biblical insights to inform their decisions on how to vote in local and national elections. Perhaps the ‘groaning’ and complaining we’re experiencing these days should be more appropriately directed toward those we’ve entrusted for our spiritual education. What do you think you could do differently to make a difference in your own community’s backyard? Maybe you could put in a good word to your pastor for starters. Why not ask him to give you his thoughts after listening to a four-minute YouTube on why Christians should vote? Here’s a summary of what he will hear.
You’re in a conversation and someone says why vote? Politics is ugly and God is Sovereign no matter who’s in office. What would you say?
It’s true that God is always in charge. Scripture is clear that nothing can ultimately derail God’s plan. But does that mean we don’t need to care about what happens in government? No. And here are three reasons why.
Number one… Freedom isn’t normal! Even if you’re not a political activist, my guess is that you’re probably grateful that you live in a place like the United States rather than Venezuela or North Korea. But we often don’t understand why our experience has been so much different and better than people in other parts of the world. Freedom from tyranny, constitutional rights and civil liberties are all we’ve ever known. We tend to forget how rare and abnormal our experience is.
Most people throughout history never experience the kind of freedom Americans have taken for granted in our lifetimes. In fact, the majority of people around the world do not live freely today. Those of us who were born into Freedom didn’t do anything to earn it. But even if we didn’t do anything to earn our freedoms we are responsible for what we do with them.
To whom much is given much is required. Will we leave our country as good as we found it? Can we make it even better for future generations? That leads to the second point.
Governments, like everything, require maintenance! If we decide to never again mow the lawn, replace the brakes on our car, or fix the leak in our roof… God is still in charge and he will still accomplish his purpose. But, we still do those things because we don’t want to live our life surrounded by lawns, cars, and houses that were never maintained. That’s how it works with governments too. By educating ourselves, voting, and running for office… free people do the work necessary to maintain our freedom.
Our commitment to these things doesn’t demonstrate a lack of trust in God’s sovereignty. It’s really the way we steward what God has given to us. And it’s the way we show kindness to our neighbors… which leads to the third point.
Well-maintained governments make life better for everyone. Ideas are not neutral. Ideas have consequences! And bad ideas have victims. When bad ideas take root in government, people get hurt. By taking care of our government we don’t just fulfill a civic duty… we make life tangibly better for other people. Babies who would otherwise die… get to live. People who would otherwise be punished for speaking the truth… get to speak. Parents who would otherwise lose the right to direct the upbringing of their children… get to have the final say. Communities that would otherwise be unsafe… are able to thrive. Justice exists where it didn’t before. These decisions are not simply a matter of taste like vanilla or strawberry. In some cases it could be life or death.
Yes, God is in charge. And we can trust him. But God has placed us on Earth to care for the world He created… including the government. He didn’t create any of us for indifference.
So, next time someone says it’s not important to vote because God is in charge anyways… remember these three things.
Number one – Freedom isn’t normal! What we enjoy as Americans is a gift. Squandering gifts isn’t trust it’s ungratefulness.
Number two – governments, like everything, require maintenance. We should vote for the same reason we mow our lawn. Things get worse if we don’t personally take care of them.
Number three – well-maintained governments make life better for everyone. Voting isn’t simple a duty. It’s a chance to tangibly improve other people’s lives. When we have those chances, we should take them.
Jesus said “let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16.
How many people aren’t able to give glory to God who is in heaven… because we are not doing our job of maintaining our government by voting? The righteous are bold as a lion and willing to vote.
Could it be that God, himself is allowing modern idolatry to run its course until the people cry out for God’s intervention? If we honestly think that might be even remotely possible, then what are we doing – in faith – to prepare for the harvest of souls who will need to be discipled much more Biblically than the traditional churches have done in recent generations? This is something worth serious ongoing discussion and prayerful planning in every congregation of true believers… but wise builders must lead the way… not just those gifted with gifts of exhortation and academic instruction. We need gifted men… Bold men… courageous men… strong men… with many different gifts working together. And that’s the way our Creator made “the body” to have interactive dependence on all its various members.
Are there indications that God is using the current crisis of dictatorial governmental intrusion into the lives of citizens to urge His people to declare all the word of the Living God more boldly? And by declaring the word, I don’t mean only shouting John 3:16 to a crowd, overwhelmed by an ocean of worldly noise! I mean every true follower (disciple – mathētēs) of Jesus (Mat 10:25), personally getting their ministry assignment (diakonia in 2 Co 5:18) from the Holy Spirit and strategically working in fellowship (koinonia in 1 Jo 1:7) with their local assembly (Ekklesia in Rev 2:29) of every true faithful believers (pistos in1 Co 4:2) and doing it with courage and action. (see an example in Act 9:6)!
Without the help of the mainstream news, you’ve probably heard reports about the most amazing public display of unity for a cause – in Canada. Cheerful, freedom-loving, hard-working, and determined truck drivers rallied to do more than voice their dissent. Investing days of tireless journeying across sub-zero prairie, over 50 thousand truckers and hundreds of thousands of fellow Canadians did what every faithful father and mother would do for their family. They dared to peacefully express their demand for truthful honest integrity from their nation’s leadership. They fought to preserve their God-given freedoms. Many of them were God-fearing believers, unashamed to declare their love for Christ out in the open.
There is no doubt that public demonstrations like the Canadian trucker’s convoy displayed a righteous kind of courage that alerted many God-fearing citizens to pray for their country and to vote.
It became painfully obvious to masses of the public that the mainstream Media doesn’t want you to know this even happened… And the government showed their shockingly clear disdain for the freedom-loving citizens of Canada also.
Trucker convoys in Canada, massive protests through the streets of Europe, and large rallies in Washington D.C. — The widespread public protests that have voiced strong disagreement with governmental policies… like the mandates for all people to get injected with highly questionable, experimental chemicals …have erupted across the entire world. They have made up the largest protest movement in human history. They dwarf ‘Black Lives Matter’ & the so-called ‘Woman’s March’ by tens of millions.
If you want updated insight on current world news events that you’re not getting from the highly censored MSM, I think you’d like to check out a podcast from a committed Christian who’s seen a lot of life as a retired marine? His moniker is “AWK.” It stands for “And we know,” as in Romans 8:28… that all things work together for good for those who love God and are called according to His purpose. His name is L.T and he’s a citizen journalist who really knows how to scour the internet for important content to help destroy vain speculations and high-sounding arguments raised against the knowledge of God. A lot of believers have found here, honest and down-to-earth reporting on a lot of issues that they’re not getting elsewhere. You’ll find And We Know on Rumble because it’s too filled with awkward truths to be allowed on YouTube.
Why is it important for Christ-followers to realize what has been happening with events like the truckers’ convoy in Canada and the huge fleet of Dutch farmers with their tractors, protesting scandalous government actions in the Netherlands?
Do you think God might be using these colossal events to alert many people to a reality much farther reaching than the events themselves? That should be something we could easily pray for, shouldn’t it?
Like all of you, I was spiritually blind to many things before Jesus healed my disability and opened my spiritual eyes to the discernment of Godly wisdom found in His word. None of us know the things we don’t know. How will we ever escape from the paths of destructively dangerous and hidden deceptive potholes in the road of life if someone doesn’t put some light on our pathway?
Why would otherwise quiet citizens jump into the public fray by joining a Freedom Convoy or attending a Trump rally in Madison Square Garden?
How can we pray God would “deliver us from evil” if we’re not willing to pray that God would use a not-so-righteous judge like Samson to deliver us from the evil of our day… AND do our part to make it possible by exercising our privilege to vote?
There are all kinds of reasons why millions of busy, law-abiding citizens at their own expense would stick their physical necks out into the dangerous storm of controversy. Can you think of a few?
They not only want to express their opinion about unlawful government actions over the citizens of their nation, they want to make it clear that they will not bend any further in capitulating to those who think they can demand worshipful obedience as if those tyrants were gods. Natural rights are God-given rights. Common sense doesn’t need scientific consensus to make it true. When the proverbial “emperor has no clothes,” then somebody with child-like observational skills and the courage of a faithful soldier has to stand up and refuse to bow… Are not the righteous bold as lions? Don’t lions vote with their actions?
We may live in what academics like to call a “post-modern” or “post-Christian” era of history… but the politically IN-correct foolish academics have been dead wrong for decades. We’re seeing an AWAKENING in this generation that will build upon and enlarge the awakening that birthed the first God-orchestrated constitutional republican nation in history. Freedom is not a gift from the hands of an earthly king…one who can take it away again. Freedom is a spiritual gift from the only wise and transcendent Creator who sustains the entire universe and whose kingdom will never end.
The freedom to live can only come from the Giver of life… and it’s not the government.
The freedom of liberty to speak one’s thoughts can only come from the One making it possible for us to think those thoughts.
The freedom for humans to choose what they allow into their homes, their thoughts and their bodies can only come from the Redeemer who gives His created beings the choice to accept or reject His wisdom and gift of eternal relationship with Him.
The freedom to express God-fearing religious convictions can only come from the Grace of the One who created such awe-inspiring wonders as the starry heavens and conscious ability to honestly worship the One who made them all.
The freedom to peaceably assemble with other humans and petition their government to correct misguided grievances can only come from the One who commanded His assembled ‘ekklesia’ of two or more of His faithful creatures to proclaim His kingdom and authority to the whole world.
If we really believe that at the name of Jesus every knee shall bow and ever heart shall confess that He alone is Lord – Master – Sovereign – over all… then don’t we have an obligation to Him to proclaim liberty throughout the land? Shouldn’t we do as Proverbs 24:11 directs and “Deliver those who are being taken away to death, and those who are staggering to slaughter…?”
Shouldn’t we call upon God in the day of trouble? Can’t we trust in Him to fulfill His promise to rescue us when we faithfully commit to honor Him?” (Psalm 50:15)
The founders of our unique American nation determined in cast bronze metal the words on the liberty bell for a reason – you shall proclaim liberty throughout the land…
It is written in the Scripture given to Moses in Leviticus 25:10… “And ye shall … proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof…”
Through many dangers, toils, and snares God’s amazing grace has led us as a nation. He’s done it even through trials – trials that could have been avoided. How? Only if we, His people, had diligently hearkened unto Him and faithfully done what we were commissioned to do. But God is always faithful.
His prophet Malachi says (in Malachi 3:7):
“Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts.”
America’s Condition is pretty bad.
We now have a political party in America that is willing to allow thousands of terrorists, murderers, rapists, thieves, brutal gangs, and poisonous drugs into America in exchange for votes. We have a political party that has “lost” over 300,000 children – one can only imagine the suffering many of them are enduring – in exchange for votes. One of the first things Biden did when taking power four years ago was end Trump’s policy of DNA testing to see if those bringing in children were truly related to them. This party’s lust for power and to see America transformed into a weak, globalist nation is literally insatiable. It is hard to imagine that their collective conscience could have become so seared.
It is also hard to imagine that such a large portion of America’s media would become complicit in such heinous activity. They know it is occurring; the sad truth is that they don’t care about these children, the fentanyl deaths, and the inevitable suffering from the criminal portion of the illegals that have come in. Obviously, their ideologies matter more than the children.
And it is hard to believe millions of Americans choose to look the other way. What has happened to our nation?! I don’t hate any of these people; I want to see all of them saved. I do, however, hate what they are doing. A true revival, transforming the hearts of millions of Americans, is necessary to change these things. How is that going to happen? Having the right people in government is important, but as we know, they cannot transform hearts, and America is sick at a heart level. Government leaders can and must reform America, but will only be able to do so after God revives it, transforming hearts.
This is why we pray for both. We must continue contending for revival; and we must continue to contend for reformation in our government, praying that evil is removed and God-honoring patriots are elected. This upcoming election is crucial beyond words. We would not survive four more years of woke, Marxist, antichrist leadership. Very few people are capable of leading us in the level of reformation needed. Keep praying that they are elected.
And, for now, let’s all do our part to help whomever we can to get to the voting booths… to muster up the boldness of a righteous lion… to vote… and vote for those who will govern in respect to our God-given constitution so we all can have another chance to be the salt and light to preserve the right to disciple our nation for Christ’s kingdom.

And certainly, we must pray for an awakening in the church, God’s instrument to provide salt (preservation) and light to the earth. A large percentage of the American church lost its savor, and the light grew dim. And regarding her assignment of being a voice for truth and morality? Well, let’s just say her silence screams, “Lukewarm, irrelevant, and cowardly!” God, however, knows how to restore and revive His people. He is doing so, and is about to rain fire on them – FIRE!
Be encouraged, praying Christian. The God who has motivated our prayers is answering them. Many American people are now seeing our fallen condition, making them ripe for revival. Corruption and evil are being exposed in our government, setting the stage for reformation. Many in the church are tired of complacency, compromise, woke leaders, and lack of power, which is creating a hunger for true presence and power. All is ready. Keep praying!
And finally, pray for the protection of President Trump. I know in my heart that many – here and abroad – want him dead. God works through our prayers. The prayer that allowed for his protection on two occasions – that we know of – must continue. Pray for Trump, his family, and those around him. Pray that evil plans will be exposed, and that every plan fails.
Declare that no weapon formed against him will prosper. And pray that he will be drawn into a very close relationship with God – Spirit-filled, Spirit-led, Spirit-anointed, and Spirit-empowered. Pray these things DAILY!
And I want to leave you today with a message of hope that I heard from our good podcasting friend, Dutch Sheets on his podcast called “Give Him 15.”
“Toward the end of the 19th century, Swedish chemist Alfred Nobel awoke one morning to read his own obituary in the local newspaper: ‘Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite, who died yesterday, devised a way for more people to be killed in a war than ever before, and he died a very rich man.’
“Actually, it was Alfred’s older brother who had died; a reporter had botched the obituary! However, the account had a profound effect on Alfred Nobel. He decided that he wanted to be known for something other than inventing the means for killing people in war, and amassing great wealth in the process. So, he initiated the Nobel Peace Prize, the award for those who foster peace. Nobel said, ‘Every man ought to have the chance to correct his epitaph in midstream and write a new one.’”(1)
I guess you could say that we are re-writing America’s epitaph.
Pray with me:
Father, we Americans have modeled greatness, and a loss of greatness. We now exemplify weakness, depravity, greed, pride, and so much more. You said, “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches” (Jeremiah 9:23). We have done all of the above.
And yet, Your mercies are great and endure forever. You are turning our nation, awakening us to our nakedness, and have raised up much intercession to fuel this. We thank You. Continue this, Father, allowing us to write a new epitaph.
We pray for the safety and protection of President Trump, his family, and those around him. Stop EVERY plan to take him out. Expose all of those endeavoring to do so.
And give us the leadership we need at this time in history. Motivate people to vote, and to do so based on biblical values. Cause them to see that their actions are writing America’s epitaph.
We ask all of this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Let’s continue to ask our Father to give the world of true proclaimers of God’s liberty the opportunity to step up to the spiritual battle. It’s going to be won through prayer and the declaration of truth over evil powers that naturally-minded people aren’t expected to understand.
Scott Lively’s newsletter of Oct 26, 2024 quoted his website at ScottLively.net, saying: Christians who can’t balance the aspirations of Christianity with the realities of politics sabotage their own interests by imposing an unrealistic standard of moral perfection on people who run for office: a standard God Himself never imposed on the people that He raised up as Judges during the 400 year Israelite Republic that America is modeled upon.”
This is what King Solomon was talking about when he wrote…
“The wicked run away when no one is chasing them, but the godly are as bold as lions.”
Solomon went on to say, in a different translation, that…
When there is moral rot within a nation, its government topples easily. But wise and knowledgeable leaders bring stability.
A poor person who oppresses the poor is like a pounding rain that destroys the crops.
To reject the law is to praise the wicked; to obey the law is to fight them.
Evil people don’t understand justice, but those who follow the LORD understand completely.
Proverbs 28:1-5
As always, King Solomon declares some important wisdom for us all to apply today to give us guidance for prayer and action so that we can encourage others to have hope.
Indeed… God’s righteous servants are as bold as lions… and while evil people don’t understand God’s justice… those who follow the LORD understand completely.
So, let’s all learn from this and boldly… prayerfully… and faithfully share these treasures with others as God gives us providential opportunities.
With the free-flowing exchange of ideas, the public discussion inevitably enlarges. More and more people discover logical, technical and biblical validity for rejecting government leaders and policies that shamefully scorn the Most High God and support actions that ‘steal, kill and destroy’ our Creator’s image bearers. He loved them enough to redeem them through death on the cross. Will we love them enough to bear our cross daily and live our remaining days sacrificially in His service? And don’t forget that common sense doesn’t need scientific consensus to make it true.

From Scott Lively’s newsletter of Oct 26, 2024 rec’d at my Gmail.
From his website at ScottLively.net, “Christians who can’t balance the aspirations of Christianity with the realities of politics sabotage their own interests by imposing an unrealistic standard of moral perfection on people who run for office: a standard God Himself never imposed on the people He raised up as Judges during the 400 year Israelite Republic that America is modeled upon.”
