In today's modern American society, corruption continues to be on the rise. From wicked law makers to the extreme liberal leadership and lobbyists, in both state and federal, waiting to sink their teeth into the very heart of all that is moral and right. Our nation needs prayer more than ever as we enter a new chapter of leadership. We are at a turning point not only nationally, but also globally, where Christians must stand together to be the beacon of light to a world falling deeper into darkness. We must continue to share the Good News of Christ and broadcast the seeds to the un-sewn fields. Whether one chooses to believe in Christ, His death and Resurrection, or not; whether one chooses to ignore or acknowledge Him - every knee will bow to Jesus. Therefore, continue to stay strong as you go and tell.
Phillipians 2:9-11 (ESV) says:
"9Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."Fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, you will be persecuted. Jesus said we would be for His names sake.
"11Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. 12Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." -- Matthew 5:11-12, ESV
Persecution, at many levels, happens daily. America has not seen the extremes of persecution as in other countries. Liberal extremists and other depraved hearts and minds that hold political office will bring us closer to persecution with hate tactics, as their history shows. We will be seen as intolerant and hateful for standing what is right. So, it is with strength, courage and honor that we stay strong and protect the Word of God, and be a light to this world for both each other and non-believers. Knights, draw your sword, which is the Word of God and don your armor of God so that you will be ready to defend and stand for the King. Keep your eyes to the King, and do not waiver them. May the Holy Spirit fill your cup overflowing.
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." --Joshua 1:9b ESVMay the love of Christ be with you always. May He receive all glory and praise. Amen.

Hey Sam. While things in this world and life continue to deteriorate, we need to take heart! Read Psalms 47. God is on the throne! What is happening in our world today is not a surprise to Him - He is King - He is Lord!
Psalms 47:7-9 says:
7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm [a] of praise.
8 God reigns over the nations; God is seated on his holy throne.
9 The nobles of the nations assemble as the people of the God of Abraham, for the kings [b] of the earth belong to God; he is greatly exalted.
Satan's job is to destroy, kill, lie to, and more! He wants to inflict fear.
2 Timothy 1:7 says:
7For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, of love and of a sound mind.
This is an exciting time as we are seeing prophesy fulfilled! God's hand is on us - let's praise Him!
Love ya - Terri
