It’s now been over 250 years that the people of the American republic have enjoyed the blessings of being a free and self-governing nation. And it all began with the convictions of the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence. Have you heard those words lately? They were deeply believed by every single patriotic American in 1776. But, no matter how patriotic each one of us might sincerely think we are today, I have to humbly admit that there’s almost no way any of us today can fully grasp the sobering reality and risk those men faced.

Knowing what was written in that document, about to be made public the next day, John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail that the date of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in July 1776 would become the most memorable date in American history. He expected it to be celebrated annually by future generations as a great anniversary festival and day of deliverance. He believed the holiday should be marked by solemn devotion to God and public festivities including pomp and parade, shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations across the continent from this time forward forever more.

The devoutly Christian John Adams deeply believed that the founding generation of America sacrificed their prosperity, safety, and peace of mind deliberately for the purpose of establishing liberty in their land. Doing that was unquestionably a God-given blessing to his generation. But he also had a deep sense that there was a significant risk that unborn generations would take these privileges for granted. Adams feared that without a deep appreciation for the moral burden and hardships endured by his contemporaries, future Americans might fail to uphold the Constitution and the republican values they secured. He made it very clear that this sacrifice was not for any personal gain for any of the Founders. It was only to ensure that their sons and their descendants would have the liberty to pursue useful understanding of things like mathematics, philosophy, and the arts without the constant burden of war and political strife.

Many reach middle age, watch their children grow up, welcome grandchildren into the world, and quietly wonder, “Have I already done the important part of my life—and now I’m just coasting?” Scripture offers a very different picture. It tells us that from the very beginning, God has been a God of purpose—He creates intentionally, He calls personally, and He uses His people meaningfully in every generation and in every season.

All 56 patriots who signed the Declaration took their duties so seriously to the people of the new nation that they made a promise “with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.” They signed the Declaration of Independence knowing that the penalty would be death if they were captured, and that pledge could literally cost them their lives and fortunes.

In recent years, we’ve all learned a lot about massive deception, widespread fraud and vast public propaganda regarding health and disease prevention.; One of the many hard-working, medical-freedom-loving, health care professionals who has been sharing his research openly for everyone to benefit is Dr Bryan Ardis. You can access his discussion of some of his background and remarkable discoveries on a past episode of Reclaiming Your Legacy, linked in today’s transcript. Dr Ardis did extensive research to write his highly informative book titled: “Moving Beyond the Covid-19 Lies – Restoring Health; Hope for Humanity. Many patriot podcasters have interviewed him about the many topics he’s researched and written about.
Since the global onslaught of the artificially induced planned epidemic of 2020, Dr Ardis has been at the forefront of God’s providential plan to uncover the generation’s-long stranglehold of demonically-controlled industrial titans over all humanity.

When God’s people recognize that the path of the society around them is collapsing, the prophets of the Bible give us an unmistakably clear assignment, if we’re willing to accept it… Be a generation called to rebuild the ancient paths.
The confusion and uncertainty assaulting humanity worldwide today is being identified by many as an all-out strategy of destructive warfare from the Enemy of mankind himself. So, what is the ‘assignment’ God has for His people in the middle of such alarming chaos?
The 58th chapter of the prophet Isaiah declares clearly, Almighty God’s displeasure with the superficial, self-centered, and hypocritically empty religious rituals of His people. Instead, He desires a deeper and personally more authentic form of worship, defined by distinctive actions. And biblical worship – let’s not miss it – is a sacrificially devoted spiritual life-style, not just a weekly religious exercise.

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?

When you think about taking a proactive change of direction to reclaim your legacy, what do you think is the most important thing that you’ve personally learned in your lifetime so far? While you make the focus of your attention on having a positive influence on your own children and grandchildren – your next generation – what truth or idea have you discovered that is such a powerful influence on your own life that you’d have to include it among the very top dozen or so important things that you have ever learned in your life?

What are all of us seeing more clearly now? The wicked controlling powers of society at all levels of politics, information distribution, and corporate business… mesmerized most of the population for generations. Common sense was almost lost. Americans were conditioned to not think for themselves. But with all the exposure of evil in the years since the gross manipulation of public thought during the Covid Plandemic, things have greatly changed. But that doesn’t mean it’s okay for truth-tellers to kick back.

When we wonder “why is all this evil upon our nation?” We can easily see that the general eradication of the godly influence of God’s people is because we have forsaken the commission of the Lord to be salt and light… to overcome evil with good… to expose the darkness of our own communities… to rescue those who are perishing because of the evil that is allowed to prevail. So, it isn’t a bad idea to pray about where you can be involved with the work God is doing through his soldiers who are courageous to do all they can to stand against the ‘gates of hell’ as only the Ekklesia is enabled by our risen Lord to do so.

Critical times require critical thinking. The art of Biblical war absolutely hinges on knowing the patterns of God’s unchanging nature. The wisdom of those patterns are clear directions… but they’ve been obscured by teachings that have been labeled as “post-modern Christianity.” Remember God’s clear direction to Joshua? He was assigned the leadership of Israel’s armed and trained young men as they crossed the Jordan, preparing to conquer Canaan.
