Take heart, God is in control

God is revealing to American Christians a government that has contempt for the foundations of America. This epiphany is ugly and downright unsettling, but take heart, God is in control.

Yes, we have a desiccated, morally bankrupt figurehead as president.And yes, the statesmen standing as a bulwark for the people are few and far between.

So why should Christians be joyful ? We take heart because God is in control.

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.  And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. –Romans 8:28-30 (English Standard Version)

What the world throws at us as evil, God uses it for our greater good. He is conforming those He has called to the image of His Son. Why? God is in control.

The question then becomes, do we believe that God is sovereign, no matter the circumstances? If we have faith then why do we worry ?

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.— Phillipians 4:6-7

God commands us not to worry or be anxious about anything. We do this by taking everything in prayer and petition to the Creator. And here’s the kicker: we do this with thanksgiving!

What is thanksgiving? It is thanking God in advance for answering our prayer. In other words, we pray with the expectation that God not only hears our requests, but answers them.

When we pray in this manner, God’s peace guards our heart and minds in the supernatural power of Christ Jesus. Do you understand what this means? We have access to this power no matter the circumstances.

So when you become despondent about the evil ascending in our governments and institutions, put it to prayer. Pray your honest thoughts and feelings about the situation and for God’s will to prevail. Then expect and thank Him for answering your heartfelt prayer. Do this sincerely and often and soon your believing and non-believing friends will see Christ’s light in you.

Instead of worrying about the assaults to the rule of law, why don’t we pray for God’s justice to prevail? Instead of grumbling about the latest political outrage with your friends, why not encourage a group prayer?

God promises to protect His people even amid a world spinning out of control. Our Heavenly Father covers us in His protection (Psalm 91:4 , ESV) and He sealed us with the Holy Spirit.( 2 Cor 1:21-22 , ESV)

Nothing is happening in America, and the world, has caught God by surprise. What satan purposes for evil, God uses for our greater good. Remember to take heart, God is in control.

The mug shot heard ’round the world

The mug shot heard ’round the world. Congrats Dems and RINOs of the Uniparty. You made history, yes, but in doing so you’ve crossed the Rubicon and are sowing the seeds of your destruction.

President Donald Trump’s cold stare of righteous anger is symbolic of all Americans witnessing the transformation of our justice system to that of a banana-republic. You know…those countries you’ve read about where political enemies are jailed?

But Trump is not in jail, some of you are saying. He is not in jail because he posted the $200 thousand bond, but he was indicted, arrested, and booked just like a common criminal:All according to plan.

President Trump faces 91 criminal charges amounting to over 700 years in prison if convicted of all of them. One Fox News host basically described the legal strategy: a staggering amount of criminal charges with the hope that something sticks.

“Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime,” was the infamous boast of Lavrentiy Beria, the head of Josef Stalin’s secret police. Is this not what’s transpiring now just in time for the 2024 Presidential Election?

What’s going on here is election interference plain and simple. Do not lose sight of this.

Even ifTrump is found guilty, the conviction(s) will be overturned on appeal due to the shaky legal foundation of all the charges. However, said appeal would probably not happen until after the 2024 election. What the Uniparty is hoping is they can trigger the 14th Amendment section 3 :

Section 3 Disqualification from Holding Office

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection (author emphasis) or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Why do you think January 6 protest, that turned into an instigated riot, was called an insurrection by Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and the quisling media? Think about it. Insurrection is specifically mentioned in the Constitution as a disqualification from holding office. Had you ever heard the term, insurrection, mentioned in mainstream culture prior to J6? I know I had not. Question everything.

RINO Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson admitted the strategy to disqualify Trump at last week’s opening presidential debate.

Will using the Constitution against the most pro-America president since Ronald Reagan work? I don’t believe so. What the Uniparty is banking on is some states using the 14th Amendment as an excuse to keep Trump off the ballot. Some legal scholars say this tactic will fail. We’ll see what happens.

As for the charges, keep in mind Trump was exonerated in two impeachments , was awarded damages in the Stormy Daniels lawsuit, and nothing illegal was found in his tax returns by congressional investigators. Many of these charges are rehashes of those cases where Trump was found innocent.

Then the question arises, why now? Why weren’t these cases brought two years ago before Trump announced his candidacy? The answer is easy: Trump has a serious chance of winning re-election.

This probability has the UniParty and the Deep State baffled. They were counting on the the multiple charges disgracing President Trump in the eyes of the public. Instead Trump’s poll numbers are skyrocketing as more people recognize this is election interference couched in a witch hunt.

Their attacks are based in lies and come from a foundation of lies. Subterfuge eventually fails due to the energy expended in maintaining the falsehood. These charges will not stand in the light of truth, which is on our side.

Anyway, back to the Trump mugshot.

The flinty gaze of a warrior and leader of the people.Trump’s eyes say to me,”Enjoy your petty little victory, Justice is coming and nothing will save you.”

No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.— Isaiah 54:17

Perhaps we should include these verses in our prayers. God is exposing the level of evil we are facing. Victory only comes through the Heavenly Father. The mugshot heard ’round the world is an instrument to wake the people up to the reality of the battle.

What can one Christian do?

“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” –Isiah 40:31

What can one Christian do? What difference can you make in the face of widespread infiltration of evil in America?

You see blatant corruption literally sucking the life out of America: a two-tier justice system, a wide-open border , presidential administration beholden to America-hating interests and a federal government persecuting anyone who questions or stands in the way of its agenda.

Some days the gravity of our situation is wearying and some days a feeling of powerlessness dominates. Can I get an amen?

We feel this way because the news is mostly bad. Even on conservative websites, many published articles can leave one sighing in despair over the madness of our situation and the willful destruction of our economy, laws, society and military.

We can respond to the world’s standards or God’s

As Christians we have three responses to our current situation. 1) We can surrender in a foregone conclusion that America is over; 2) we can return evil for evil; or 3) we can reference our Bibles for a Godly response.

The first example implies a serious lack of faith. So does the second; with you now showing that you know better than God. The third action is rooted in God’s word and therefore, faithful.

Faith is the key word. Specifically, where do we place our faith? If you find yourself reading news or commentary more than your Bible, your faith in God may be or is already lukewarm.

I must confess that there have been recent periods where I have done exactly that; studying political commentary more than my Bible. That wearing feeling mentioned earlier, is the barometer of this shift in priorities.

Powerlessness comes from taking our eyes off of Jesus

Powerlessness comes when we’re not trusting in God. Power comes from faith in God.

We must keep our eyes on Christ and not on the current state of our country. That doesn’t mean we ignore what’s going on because we have to live in the world. However, we must also remember that when we accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, like Him, we became no longer of the world.

This means our true home is heaven. This world is not a final destination, but merely a flash on our way to eternity.

This truth is an important concept that we must resolve to remember, no matter how much the culture deteriorates. With that in mind let us look at what God tells us to do in the face of corrupt government officials and a pagan culture.

The Bible commands us to submit to government authorities and pray for those in power. Yeah… submit and pray.

Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.–Romans 13:1(New King James Version)

This means we peaceably obey the government by not fomenting rebellion against obeying laws and paying our taxes. Keep in mind, that Paul wrote this during the time of Nero, one of the cruelest Roman rulers.

Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.–Romans 13:2(NKJV)

You think things are bad for Christians now? Nero used to have Christians cast in wax and lit on fire like candles for his amusement. This depraved Caesar would also feed Christians to the hungry lions in the coliseum or have them killed in gladiator spectacles.

Paul wrote Romans during the reign of this madman. Does this mean we obey all government edicts without question? Of course not.

Why do you think those Christians were persecuted by Nero? It was because they did not follow his laws to remain silent and not worship Christ. Those Christians were martyred because they placed God above government.

We choose God over government

This is the only instance in which we are not to follow government. When it comes to obeying the government and worshiping our Lord, we defer to the latter and not the former. Peter explicitly obeyed this principal in Acts 5:29:

But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men.

Government as ordained by God is supposed to protect the righteous while being a terror to the evil doer.This is the explained in Romans 13:3-5

For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same. For he is God’s minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God’s minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil. Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience’ sake.

Our current government has become a terror to good works and not to evildoers. Therefore it is not carrying out its God-given duty to protect the good. It prioritizes abortion, transgenderism , division and paganism. Are we to obey it blindly? No, for it is anti-God and anti-Christ. However, this does not give us license to foment rebellion. We choose not to follow laws that glorify evil and not God,while at the same time praying for elected officials.

Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.–1 Timothy2:2-4.

So if you want peace of mind and joy, do what God commands us to do . It totally goes against the world’s standards and as a result, calls us to faith and obedience; which is really what God is looking for in his children.
