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.
When you examine Isaiah 58 .. let God’s Spirit show you where your life can better express what God identifies as “the fast” that He chooses. That kind of a Messiah-following discipleship is characterized by several features. All of them require some effort and humbly asking God for personal direction. Remember one of the central themes of the Bible: “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct (or make straight) your paths” (Proverbs 3:6). Your what? Your PATHS.
Justice and righteousness is high on His list: Can we do anything to break the chains of injustice? Are there oppressed people whom we can help to free? Can we remove blame shifting and speaking wickedness? (read Isaiah 58:6-9).
Caring for the vulnerable is naturally a priority with God: Can we find ways to share our food with the hungry? Can we invite a poor homeless one into our home? What about clothing those who are truly naked and needy? (read Isaiah 58:7). If we do, He promises “your light will break out like the dawn” (vs 8)… “you will call and the LORD will answer” (vs 9).
Humility and sincerity are traits deserving our daily introspection: We just cannot allow ourselves to use devotional sacrifices like fasting as an excuse to exploit workers, or quarrel with others, or engage in self-righteousness (read Isaiah 58:3-5).
True selfless devotion is assured God’s special turn arounds in your life: Fasting accompanied by “giving yourself” to those in need and “satisfying the desire of the afflicted” will result eventually in “your light rising out of darkness” and “your gloom becoming like midday.” (read Isaiah 58:10).
Solving the Confusion over The Days celebrating Easter and Passover
Sometimes, the celebration dates of Passover and Easter coincide, but sometimes they can be weeks apart. Why is this? If Yeshua died at the time of the Jewish Passover, why does the institutionalized Christian church celebrate his death and resurrection on a different date of the year? How did they get separated?
For many Christians, Easter Sunday is the annual celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ three days after his death. The Gospel writers are very clear that His crucifixion took place at the Jewish observance of Passover. Christians understand the prophetic symbolism of the Passover sacrifice. In fact, Paul writes that “Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed” (1 Corinthians 5:7). How is it then, that this year (2025) Easter, on April 20th, occurs on the last day of the Jewish 8-day Passover celebration, whereas last year it occurred three weeks before Passover?
In our modern society everyone knows that January First is the beginning of the New Year, Right? But what is really the beginning of the year, biblically speaking?
If you were to talk to a member of the Jewish community about their Rosh Hashanah, you would discover that holiday is the Hebrew name for the first day thatbegins every Jewish New Yearin our Gregorian calendar month of September or October. It’s celebrated at the beginning of their month called Tishri, which is the seventh month according to the ancient Jewish religious calendar. So, that means that the month called Nisan (or Nissan.. ‘NEE-SAHN’) is the first month of the Biblical year. The month of Nisan is the very special time when the historic Feast of Passover is celebrated (it’s called Pesach in Jewish communities). Passover commemorates the Israelites’ exodus from slavery in ancient Egypt, about 3,500 years ago.
The Feast of Passover is the Biblical holy day for God’s people to celebrate the liberation of the Israelites from Egyptian slavery in the momentous event that portrays God’s redemptive power in the book of Exodus.
Did you ever discover something you didn’t know that made a big change in your life?
Have you ever heard of a boy named Josiah?
He lived over 2600 years ago. He was only 8 years old when his extremely evil father (King Amon of Judah) was assassinated in his own house by his royal servants after only 2 years of being king of Judah. Amon had followed in the grossly sinful footsteps of Josiah’s grandfather, King Manasseh. During his 55-year reign, Manassehseduced a whole generation of God’s people to do more evil than the idol-worshipping Canaanites that the LORD destroyed by Israel’s armies in prior generations. Despite the 29-year flourishing of their people under Manasseh’s father, King Hezekiah, the people of Judah under Manasseh, followed his evil abominations to do more wickedly than God’s wicked enemies, the Amorites. They followed after immorality and idolatry that secularized the people of Israel under false gods. (2 Kings 21:2, 9, 11).
The historic, providentially prepared founders of America, against all politically correct conventional wisdom of that day, defiantly and bravely declared that there arecertain truths that are self-evident.
Have you noticed the very first truth they listed in the Declaration of Independence? There’s not a hint that there was any dispute at all about the Biblical truth of the eternal existence of the Creator God. In the 18th century, the reality of Jehovah God was undeniably embossed on the minds of virtually all thinking people. In fact, even carelessly immoral and dishonest people, back then, would generally have agreed with the biblical truth that, yes, all humans must ultimately give an account to their Creator for the actions of their lifetime.
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?
Let’s Quell the controversy over Christmas and its traditions.
Every Christmas season many of us are confronted with various notions about the origins of Christmas and many cherished Christmas traditions. But what can we learn from the original writers of history itself about these controversial ideas?
It’s been called “the most wonderful time of the year.” Christmas for most of us has enjoyed a long history of traditions that make the heart of the winter season a rich time of festive celebrations.
For many of us, growing up in America in the late 20th Century, our memories from childhood include the happy songs of Jingle Bells, Deck the Halls with boughs of holly, and “I’m dreaming of a white Christmas.” There’s nothing wrong with any of that. When I was a child, singing Christmas songs like Silent Night and Joy to the World … around the piano with my grandmother… well, nothing could be more delightful to enthusiastic, ever-optimistic young children. Although Santa, for my generation, played a fairly significant part of the wide array of Christmas traditions… there was never the slightest thought that “the night before Christmas and all through the house…” was ever anything more than an amusing way of celebrating the ‘rest of the story’ that was more fully expressed when we sang “Joy to the world, the Lord is come” and “O Come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant.” In fact, singing Christmas carols for our neighbors on cold winter nights in December will always be a treasured memory from childhood, through adolescence, and through college days as a young adult. We never lost sight of the real meaning of Christmas. And no one, that I can remember, ever behaved like a Scrooge or a Grinch that stole the heartbeat of Christmas, which was always about the birth of Jesus, 2,000 years ago.
Many Christians today have lamented the fact that modern commercialized society has made Christmas into a highly secular time of year.
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).

Are you ready to help people rediscover America’s covenant with God?
America’s people have been dumbed down deliberately by a secular and demonic agenda to make us all ignorant of truth, ignorant of common sense, ignorant of Scripture, and particularly ignorant of our own history. We should all know the fact that God’s prophet clearly prophesied that His own people (“My people” He said) “are destroyed for a lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6). When we speak that message, it can be a prophetic wake-up call for those who might be listening closely to what we’re saying. But another problem is that many, in the true Ekklesia of God, lack the mature personal mentors who can coach them to be guided by the Holy Spirit. We all need that guidance to discern what is true, and to learn from the events and lives of the past that are able to witness to the incredible grace and power of God.
Few events in modern history have ever demonstrated the divine intervention of Almighty God as clearly as the cluster of happenings on and just after 6:11 pm on the Sabbath day of July 13th … only 30 hours before the opening day of the Republican National Convention of 2024.
The Day of Gods Intervention
If you didn’t get the chance to witness the evening speeches of the 2024 RNC, it would be well worth giving some time to see some of them that I’ll link in the notes for today’s show at ReclaimYourLegacy.com. If the evil wishes of the deranged haters of Donald Trump had gotten their way on July 13th, everyone in this country, regardless of their opinions, would have reason to be extremely worried about the encroaching pathway to national and global violence if we had suffered the loss of the leadership of President Trump.
Ironically, the time stamp of “06:11” is the reference to a Bible passage that is extremely relevant right now. Ephesians 6:11 starts by saying…
“Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places…”
And that’s why it concludes in verse 13 of Ephesians 6…
“Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
