Arkansas Rolls Out Bible-Based Poverty Plan
|
|
|
Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) announced earlier this month that a new pilot program offers state residents a “hand up, not a handout.”
The program, called the 10:33 Initiative, stems from Luke 10:33, which says, “But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him.” As an effort from the state’s Faith-Based Initiatives office, the program seeks to lift residents out of poverty and improve their self-sufficiency through partnerships with faith-based entities.
Over the course of twelve months, the program will serve 300 to 500 Arkansans across Pulaski, Union, and Pope counties.
“The 10:33 Initiative isn’t another government welfare program; it’s a groundbreaking project carefully curated to give Arkansans a hand up, not a handout,” Sanders said in a statement. “By leveraging the power of technology and connecting Arkansans in need with faith-based and community partners willing to help, this initiative will strengthen families and transform lives. I’m incredibly grateful to my Faith-Based Initiatives office for spearheading the launch of this program, and thankful for our stakeholders and the White House Faith Office for their support. Together, we will build a stronger future for every Arkansan — and help create a model for the nation.” (American Faith) Read more here.

Lord, we celebrate wisdom in the '10:33 Initiative' in Arkansas, promoting wise biblical principals for lifting individuals out of poverty. Pour blessings over Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her Faith Based Initiative Office, as they diligently work to unify community partners and faith based organizations in transforming lives. May this biblical insight create a successful model of unity, strength and love for neighbor for the entire nation to follow! In the Name of Jesus, we declare VICTORY thorough the 10:33 concept, highlighting dignity, honor, and self-sufficiency, in lieu of citizens living in poverty and oppressive reliance on governmental handouts. May this program be abundantly successful and multiply, causing a spreading of the biblical 10:33 Initiative across state lines! In Yeshua's Name we pray- Amen and Amen.
"For the LORD gives wisdom, from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." (Proverbs 2:6)

Donald Trump Announces Kazakhstan Joining Abraham Accords - Newsweek (Go here)
|
|
Abba, we give You thanks that there are new countries being added to the Abraham Accords, now including Kazakhstan, continuing to solidify relationships between Israel and other countries in the region. We ask Holy Spirit to speak to the hearts of leadership in the countries who have not yet chosen to join the Accords, soften their hearts and attitudes towards Israel, give them vision to see Israel as You see it. We ask for open doors between Israel and each country with whom a divide exists, bring Your truth and righteousness into conversations between leaders, guide and direct what is spoken and what is heard, protect any conversation from the enemy sowing discord or disinformation. Jesus, we ask You to do what only You can do, bring unity between all these nations and let peace be seen as the fruit of open, honest communication. We ask this in the name Yahweh Jireh, The Lord Will Provide.
"Make every effort to keep the unity of
the Spirit through the bond of peace."

Hezbollah Seeks to Take Over Lebanon Politically As it Rearms Against Israel
|
|
|
Since Nov. 27, 2024, Israel and Hezbollah have officially been in a state of ceasefire, but not a day goes by without the Iranian-sponsored terror faction seeking to violate the arrangement by trying to rebuild its battered capabilities, triggering Israeli airstrikes.
Simultaneously, Hezbollah is pursuing a political strategy to take over the Lebanese parliament, and the Lebanese state is largely helpless in stopping its activities, leaving Israel to do the heavy lifting, according to former senior Israeli security officials.
Col. (ret.) Jacques Neriah, an analyst at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs and a former deputy head for assessment of Israeli Military Intelligence, told JNS that Hezbollah is receiving digital cash flowing from the Shi'ite diaspora and "Qassem's money"--a reference to Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem, who replaced Hassan Nasrallah--coming in from Iraq. According to some estimates, the total of these funds amounts to nearly 500 million dollars.
"I think that right now Hezbollah is busy organizing its forces, although it has more or less completed filling the missing ranks, appointing commanders who were killed, training [elite] Radwan forces anew, operating factories for assembling precision missiles and assembling UAVs, deploying observation posts in southern Lebanon, bringing in weapons from Syria and other places into Lebanon, through the illegal crossings of which there are close to 377, and of course the flow of digital funds," Neriah said. (Prophecy Newswatch)

Abba, Israel is in great need of Your help in blocking Hezbollah from rearming against them and in stopping them from taking over the Lebanese parliament. We ask for warrior angels to be sent to fight this battle in the heavenlies so intercessors can pray the victory into the earth realm, for angels to speak the Holy Fear of God into their hearts. We ask for revelation of how You see Your people for those who would come against them. Father God, we ask You to intercede in these circumstances and allow every attack to fail, for every plan to fall apart before it can be carried out, for the Fear of the Lord to fall on each heart stopping them in their tracks. We ask this in the name Yahweh Sabaoth, The Lord of Hosts, the God with untold angels and men on alert, listening for His commands.
"The angel of the Lord encamps around those
who fear him, and he delivers them."
(Psalm 34:7)

IDF Conducts Wave of Strikes on Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon
|
|
Israel is preparing for the possibility of another round of fighting with the Iranian-backed terrorist organization.
The Israel Defense Forces on Thursday carried out an hours-long wave of airstrikes targeting infrastructure of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorist organization across Southern Lebanon.
“The IDF, led by Northern Command and carried out with the Air Force, struck terror infrastructure and several weapons storage facilities of the ‘Radwan Force’ unit in Southern Lebanon,” according to a statement.
Hezbollah “continues efforts to rehabilitate terrorist infrastructure in Southern Lebanon and is concentrating on rebuilding the unit’s capabilities with the aim of harming the State of Israel,” it said. (JNS.org) Read more |

Abba, the enemy is working overtime to attack Your people Israel through Hezbollah. Hezbollah has broken their word given to stop the fighting in the Nov 26 peace agreement, instead they are working to rebuild the structures that were destroyed by the IDF.. We ask that You take Hezbollah at their word. We ask that every promise broken in this rebuilding will translate to projects that keep failing, processes that don't do what they were supposed to do, timelines missed and trust disappearing as nothing comes together. Jesus, You know what needs to be done, we ask You to do it....You know far better than we do how to stop this rebuild in its tracks. We give You praise and glory that You hear the cries of Your people, Israel, and You answer. We ask this in the name El Roi, The God Who Sees everything.
"Not a word from their mouth can be trusted;
their heart is filled with malice. Their
throat is an open grave; with their tongues
they tell lies." (Psalm 5:9)

Chicago Refuses to Hire Teachers From Christian College
|
|
|
Chicago Public Schools refuses to hire teachers from one of the nation’s most prominent Christian colleges because the school follows the Bible’s teaching on marriage and sex.
The Moody Bible Institute of. Chicago has filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Chicago Board of Education for religious discrimination over its hiring practices. Alliance Defending Freedom is represent the school.
They allege that Chicago Public Schools “has prevented Moody Bible Institute from participating in its student teaching program unless it gives up its right to hire like-minded individuals who share and live out its religious beliefs and mission to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
Moody, which was founded in 1886 by famed evangelist and pastor Dwight L. Moody, offers a degree in elementary education. Student teachers are required to have access to classroom observation, practicum and student teaching hours.
However, Chicago Public Schools refused to let the Christian students step foot in the classroom unless Moody Bible Institute abandoned “its religiously based hiring practices and hire employees who disagree with Moody’s core mission and biblical values.”
“Chicago desperately needs more teachers to fill hundreds of vacancies, but public school administrators are putting personal agendas ahead of the needs of families,” said ADF attorney Jeremiah Galus. “Moody holds its faculty and students to high standards of excellence and is more than qualified to participate in Chicago’s student-teaching program.”
The Illinois State Board of Education approved Moody’s degree program in 2024 but Chicago Public Schools refused to let Moody’s students participate in the student-teaching program because they allege the Christians “discriminate against any individual with respect to compensation, or other terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of . . . religion, . . . gender identity/expression, [or] sexual orientation.”
When Moody sought a potential amendment to the policy recognizing its rights as a religious institution, Chicago Public Schools continued to refuse to accommodate Moody’s religious rights.
“By excluding Moody for its religious beliefs, Chicago Public Schools is illegally injecting itself into a religious non-profit’s hiring practices, which the Constitution and state laws expressly forbid,” Galus said. (Todd Starnes) Read more here.

- Father God, Lord Jesus Christ, once again we see You drawing a line in the sand between our secular culture and the mandates of the Word of God. The Moody Bible Institute has long been a bastion of truth, training its students to teach our
children according to Your Word. We ask that the Chicago Public Schools rescind this decision, thereby allowing the Moody Bible Institute to freely train their students in the fine tradition they have always established. In Your Name, Abba, we offer
this prayer, amen and amen.
- "But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’ For whatever is more than these is from the evil one." (Matthew 5:37)

2. Hezbollah Rejects Israel-Lebanon Talks, Reaffirms Refusal to Disarm as Tensions Escalate Along Border - Algemeiner
Hezbollah has rejected any talks with Israel and reaffirmed its refusal to disarm, even as the Jewish state ramps up military operations in southern Lebanon amid rising border tensions.
On Thursday, the Iran-backed Lebanese terrorist group condemned the prospect of negotiations between Lebanon and Israel, while reaffirming its refusal to disarm and claiming it has “a legitimate right to resist [Israeli] occupation.”
In an open letter to Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, and Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, Hezbollah called for prioritizing efforts to pressure Israel into complying with the US-brokered ceasefire negotiated by the countries last year rather than “being drawn into political negotiations with the Zionist enemy.”
“Any attempt at political negotiations with Israel does not serve Lebanon’s national interest,” the letter read. (Read more)

3. Israel seals off Egypt border, vows harsh response to drone threat - Israel Hayom
Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered the IDF to declare the area adjacent to the Israel–Egypt border a restricted military zone and to change rules of engagement accordingly. Katz told senior security officials he and Shin Bet head David Zini agreed to treat the smuggling of weapons by drones as a terrorist threat. "We are declaring war — anyone who breaches the forbidden area will be attacked," he said.
The decisions were made at an emergency meeting on Wednesday about the drone threat on the Israel–Egypt border. Participants included Defense Ministry Director-General Maj. Gen. (res.) Amir Baram, Deputy Chief of Staff Maj. Gen. Tamir Yadai and representatives of the Defense Ministry, the Israel Defense Forces, the Shin Bet security agency, the National Security Council and the Israel Police.
At the end of the meeting Katz instructed the IDF to convert the strip of land along the border into a restricted military zone and to adjust rules of engagement to attack any unauthorized element who enters the area, in order to stop drone operators and other smuggling operations. (Read more)

4. Lapid rips up ‘corrupt’ WZO leadership deal, opens door for Yair Netanyahu appointment - Times of Israel
The process of appointing new leadership roles at large Zionist institutions fell apart again on Wednesday when Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid announced that his party will no longer take part in any of the negotiations, decrying a system steeped in “a culture of corruption and political appointments.”
Lapid’s move upends a long-negotiated agreement that divvies up jobs at the major organizations like the World Zionist Organization and the Jewish National Fund-KKL between supporters of the various political factions. It could ultimately reopen the possibility that Yair Netanyahu, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s elder son, will receive a plum executive role at the WZO.
Lapid said he will instead advance legislation to nationalize the Jewish National Fund-KKL, arguing that the only way to “clean up this organization and the other national institutions is to bring them under state law, state audit, and the strictest transparency regulations.” (Read more)

1. Mamdani’s triumph is likely to embolden leftists in the West – JNS news
Zohran Mamdani’s victory in New York marks not only a political turning point for the city, but also a symbolic triumph for the Red-Green alliance that has been steadily taking shape across the West. This new coalition—of the radical left and the Islamist movement—has found fertile ground both in Europe and the United States.
Yet in Europe, its impact is even greater, the result of years of confused immigration policies, moral relativism and the naive illusion that multiculturalism could exist without values.
Mamdani represents the perfect embodiment of this alliance. His campaign was built on pro-Palestinian slogans and on the rejection of Israel’s legitimacy. He has succeeded where others have merely experimented—by turning anti-Zionism into a mainstream political banner.
The shocking fact is that he won even a quarter of the Jewish vote in a city that, along with Jerusalem, holds the largest Jewish population in the world. That, more than anything, reveals how deep the moral disorientation has become. There are always Jews ready to go as sheep to the slaughter, convinced that universalism and tikkun olam (fixing the world) somehow mean denying their own peoplehood. Read more

Dear Lord, in our deep concerns over the fact that so many people in New York City saw fit to vote for an outright anti-Semite, we turn to You for action against the possible bad policies for both New York City and Israel that may be implemented. We ask that You would raise up a standard against the promotion of jihad, Hamas, anti-Zionism, and cultural dominance of the Moslem religion and practices. Lord, forgive the people who voted, without knowledge and understanding, for this self-avowed socialist. We know they have not been educated as to the dangers of socialism and communism and all the resulting pain, deaths, and persecution that flow out of this strategy of the evil one. We hereby declare that all efforts to change New York City into strongholds of Islam and socialism in our country are defeated by the strategies and plans of the Lord, in the name of Jesus.
"He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He will also hear their cry for help and save them." (Psalms 145:19)

2. Generation Zohran: What Mamdani Reveals About The Next Generation – Prophecy Newswatch
How does a 33-year-old lifelong do-nothing--a person who has never held a real job, never suffered a true challenge, been handed everything on a silver platter--turn into a mayoral front-runner in New York City?
The answer is simple and obvious: Zohran Mamdani represents a solid movement within Generation Z. In the latest Suffolk poll, which has Mamdani leading former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo 44% to 34%, Mamdani trails among voters aged 45+; he runs ahead 23 points among those aged 35-44. But among voters aged 18-34, Mamdani runs ahead by an astonishing 61 points.
That isn't a coincidence. It's a reality. It's not that Mamdani has hidden his leechlike career, or his long record of insane radicalism. He hasn't. He certainly allows his freak flag to fly, although he occasionally tucks it away during mayoral debates. That which older voters see as a bug, younger voters see as a feature. And that says something disastrous about America's up-and-coming younger voters.
What is the general philosophy of Generation Z? Ingrained victimhood. According to Harmony Healthcare IT, 46% of Generation Z has been diagnosed with a mental health condition; 37% suspect they have an undiagnosed mental condition; more than two in five feel that "their generation isn't set up for success." Fewer than half of all Americans under 35 believe they will ever have children. Read more

Heavenly Father, we pray that the election of a socialist to mayor of New York City will bring out the problems with the voting public of this city and even of other cities, also. Lord, we pray that You will work with the younger voters to bring the reality of socialism, smooth talk, and impossible promises to this generation that has not been educated as to the dangers of socialism and communism as practiced in Russia and tried in other countries as well. Father, we pray that they will begin to appreciate the freedoms and advantages that they have that are a gift and right from You. Lord, we pray that You will send laborers into this field to give them the hope and promises that are only found in You. We pray this lifts them out of the pit of depression and despair that has caused a veil to be over their eyes. Bless them, Lord with a strong measure of Your Holy Spirit.
"He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand," (Psalms 40:2)

3. Israel, Saudi Arabia moving toward direct talks: report – JNS News
Any normalization is expected to begin with economic and trade agreements rather than full diplomatic ties.
Israel and Saudi Arabia are expected to begin direct negotiations to lay the groundwork for establishing normalization, with mediation and support from the United States.
The Israel Hayom newspaper cited American, Arab and Israeli sources as saying in recent weeks that amid intensive contacts, the U.S. has been working to arrange an official announcement on the launch of the talks during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s visit to Washington in about two weeks.
The talks are to involve U.S. President Donald Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner, Israeli Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer and a small Israeli team, Saudi Ambassador to Washington Reema bint Bandar Al Saud, and Prince Mohammed’s close advisers. Read more
|
|
Precious Lord, we see that this visit of the head of Saudi Arabia is fraught with possible snares for Israel and for the US. We pray that You would give our leaders wisdom as to what to agree to and what to reject. We pray that all our leaders would see these negotiations Your way and give all favor and protection to Israel at a vulnerable time for them. We pray our country will not make any agreements or alliances that are not already approved by You ahead of time. Lord, You said that all nations should bless Israel if they want to be blessed and we pray that these other nations will be disposed to bless Israel and give her favor at this time.
"And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that cursest thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." (Genesis 12:3)

4. America's Economic Fault Line - The Five Cracks That Could Reshape Everything – Prophecy Newswatch
While everyone’s attention is fixed on the government impasse over the budget and food stamp funding, there’s a much deeper issue brewing beneath the surface — one that could redefine the entire American economy. Behind the political theater lies a financial system straining under pressure, a workforce losing stability, households drowning in debt, and investors dancing on a dangerously thin wire.
Something is shifting — quietly, steadily — in ways that most people don’t yet see. And when you start pulling on the threads — liquidity, layoffs, debt, confidence, and market overexposure — the picture that emerges isn’t just worrisome; it’s systemic. What we’re facing isn’t a single crisis, but five converging storms that could merge into something far larger than anyone expects.
1. Liquidity Crisis -- When the Financial Fuel Runs Low
2. Mass Layoffs -- The Human Cost of Economic Slowdown
3. Consumer Debt and the Vanishing Safety Net
4. Confidence -- The Invisible Engine of the Economy
5. The Great Market Illusion -- When Everyone Bets the Same Way Read more

Jehovah Jireh,
As we see the economy collapsing, we know that we have to depend on you as our provider. We are already seeing a Liquidity crisis in America and realize that unless You intervene. we will experience layoffs and high consumer debt. Teach us, Lord, not to live beyond our means as we have done for so many years. We see it in our government, our businesses and our lifestyles. Thank You for this article showing us where the dangers are with the cash flow that is dwindling away! Forgive us, Lord, for using credit cards that cause us to go further into debt and do not bring peace. Give wisdom to our financial institutions and our government as they try to balance the National Debt and hold layoffs to a minimum. Lord, we give our lives to you, knowing that we will have peace knowing that your word says that your people will never have to beg for bread.
We know that you may not give us everything we want but you will provide our needs. In Jesus name. Amen.
" And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.. " (Philippians 4:19)

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) announced on Nov. 6 she will retire from Congress at the end of her current term on Jan. 3, 2027.
In a post on X, the former speaker said she will not seek a 21st term.
“With a grateful heart, I look forward to my final year of service as your proud representative. As we go forward, my message to the city I love is this: San Francisco, know your power,” she said.
“We have made history. We have made progress. We have always led the way, and now we must continue to do so by remaining full participants in our Democracy and fighting for the American ideals we hold dear.”

Father God,
As former Speaker Nancy Pelosi announces her retirement from Congress on January 3rd, 2027, we wish her well. While we may not have agreed with her liberal ideas and ways, we ask you, Lord, to walk with her and teach her Your ways. We thank you, Lord, for her dedication, having served the citizens in her district in California in the United States in Congress since1987. Watch over her and her family, Lord, and guide her in the days ahead. In Jesus' name, Amen.

6. Thousands of Flights Delayed as FAA to Cut Service at Major Airports – The Epoch Times
The FAA announced it would cut 10 percent of flights at high-traffic airports starting on Nov. 7 due to the government shutdown.
Thousands of flights were delayed on Nov. 6 as federal officials said that a 10 percent cut at major U.S. airports is coming this week due to the government shutdown.
According to data from the FlightAware tracking service, there were more than 2,350 delays within, into, or out of the United States as of noon on Thursday. Just over 50 cancellations were reported.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned in an interview that the shutdown would place additional pressure on travelers if it’s not resolved by the Thanksgiving holiday season.
“As we come into Thanksgiving, if we’re still in the shutdown posture, it’s going to be rough out there. Really rough,” Duffy told Fox News in an interview on Nov. 6. “And we‘ll mitigate the safety side, but will you fly on time? Will your flight actually go? That is yet to be seen, but there’ll be more disruption.” Read more

Lord God,
As this shutdown continues, we ask you to intervene and bring it to a close. Give Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy Your wisdom as he oversees the Federal Aviation Administration's plans to slash airline capacity in some of our nation's busiest airports due to the current shortage of air traffic controllers. God, provide a way for these much needed controllers to receive their pay to be able to provide for their families during this critical time. Lord, your eyes are on both the Democrats and the Republicans. It's time, Lord, for You to make a decision for them! A house divided cannot stand!
We speak protection over all passengers as they make plans to travel to see their families at Thanksgiving. In Jesus' name we offer this prayer, amen and amen!
"Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand." (Proverbs 19:21)

When Leaders Reward Lawlessness
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, November 6, 2025
Here’s the hard truth: laws don’t create consequences, choices do. When leaders downplay enforcement or reward defiance, they invite more of it. That’s what we’ve seen with sanctuary policies that bar local help to federal immigration agents, progressive prosecutors who decline whole categories of offenses, and “defund” rhetoric that signals police are the problem, not criminals. California’s SB54 limits cooperation with ICE. Manhattan’s Day-One memo narrowed prosecution on a slate of offenses. Some in Congress pushed weakening voter ID requirements while expanding same-day registration and ballot harvesting guardrails. This builds a culture where the meaning of justice is twisted beyond recognition.
Look at results. Border chaos under lax policies produced historic encounters; CBP’s own dashboard tells the tale. Cities that trimmed policing or installed lenient charging rules wrestled with spikes in repeat offending; even sympathetic researchers found bail changes increased recidivism among higher-risk defendants. In New York, teen gun violence surged after “Raise the Age,” while overall shootings fell—meaning the problem concentrated among the young who face fewer consequences. Meanwhile, public confidence split along party lines: Democrats have been far likelier than Republicans to say “spend less” on police. That doesn’t mean every Democrat cheers lawlessness, but it shows a pattern: prioritize offenders’ “equity” over victims’ safety and you tilt the streets toward predators. Read More

Dems Increasingly ‘Frustrated’ with Elected Representatives
|
|
|
|
With midterm elections only one year away, Republicans are more optimistic about their party’s future than Democrats are. According to a Pew Research Center survey conducted just before the government shutdown began and released late last week, 67% of Democratic voters say that they are “frustrated” with their own party and elected representatives, up from 48% who said the same ahead of the 2022 midterms.
Democrats are also less hopeful (down 19 points since 2021) about and proud (down 15 points since 2021) of their own party. Before the government shutdown, most (41%) Democrats said that their elected representatives weren’t doing enough to oppose President Donald Trump and his Republican allies in Congress, while others cited lack of good leadership (13%), lack of a coherent agenda or message (10%), and being out of touch with voters (8%) as other sources of frustration.
Republicans, meanwhile, are far more satisfied with their party than they were ahead of the 2022 midterms, when 51% of GOP voters said that their party made them feel “frustrated.” Now, only 40% of Republicans say that they are “frustrated” with their party. Likewise, 52% of Republican voters say that they are now proud of their party, up from 43% in 2021. The GOP also enjoys broader support on major policy points, with a 17-point advantage on crime policy and a nine-point advantage on immigration. Republicans also hold a slight advantage over Democrats on gun policy (four points), dealing with budgeting and the deficit (four points), and economic policy overall (three points), although the GOP held a 12-point lead on the economy in 2023.
Americans overall, regardless of politics, are more frustrated with the Democratic Party than with the GOP. A total of 75% of Americans expressed their frustration with the Democrats, compared to 64% who said that they are frustrated with Republicans. Additionally, over a third (36%) of Americans said that they are “hopeful” about the Republican Party, but only 28% said the same about the Democratic Party. Nearly 30% of Americans also said that they are “proud” of the Republican Party, while only 16% reported being “proud” of the Democrats. (The Washington Stand) Read more here.

Thank You, Lord, that You continue to uncover the manipulations, maneuvers and financial support of the far left. We don’t like the results of the recent election in many blue cities, but You are revealing more and more of what the left is up to and how they have been undermining our public schools and universities with leftist propaganda. With Your divine help, may this trend boomerang and the fruit and blessings of godly wisdom, truth and righteousness of our founding fathers be demonstrated and documented. Open blind eyes to the tragic failures of nations that have chosen or been forced into the ideologies behind socialism and Marxism. May our citizens, young and old, see the Light!
Lord, please energize and empower more moderate Democrats who have the power and influence to disengage the party, especially leadership, from the woke agenda. As this report indicates, 75% of the populous of the U.S. are frustrated with the Democrat Party, primarily due to their “extreme views”. We ask for a government “…of the people, by the people and for the people” that can operate in honest, respectful dialogue and work together in unity as they serve their constituents.
"He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous,
Both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord." (Proverbs 17:15)

Sen. Markwayne Mullin Reveals Schumer Held Secret BACKROOM MEETING — Ordered Democrat Senators to Keep Government SHUT Until After Elections
|
|

According to Senator Mullin, “Chuck Schumer, in a private meeting with other Democrat senators, said that if they’d just wait until after the election, he’d release the handcuffs.” He did this because he was reportedly “afraid [the Democrats’] base wouldn’t show up … in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York.”
The Senator accused Democrats like Senator Schumer of “holding the American people as leverage” in order to score political points.
The government has been shut down for over 5 weeks now, making this the longer shutdown in our nation’s history. Meanwhile, our infrastructure is in danger, and more and more families are having to go without pay. If what Senator Mullin is saying is true, it would mean that Senator Schumer endangered America families all to win a few off-year elections.
Let’s pray for the truth about these accusations to be revealed, and let’s pray for an end to this shutdown that will honor God and bless this nation! (The Gateway Pundit) Read more here.

Lord of All, You know the hearts of all men. You know why Senator Schumer has urged other Democrats to continue the government shutdown; and You know, as well, if Senator Mullin has spoken truth. Based on Schumer’s past behavior, we suspect he indeed wanted the shutdown to continue until after the recent elections in order to score more votes for the Democrats. If so, we believe these actions are beyond evil because of the immensely disastrous consequences for millions of families and individuals which could be forseen. Truth be told! Lord God, should You find Schumer guilty, we ask for his removal from office and for those Democrats who blindly followed him as well. We ask forgiveness for them and pray that You turn their hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. May they look to Jesus and see what a servant’s heart truly looks like.
Meanwhile, Father, we ask that You make this situation work for the good of those so harshly affected by the shutdown. Until these citizens are ‘back on their feet’, we ask for Your provision for them—spirit, soul and body. In Jesus mighty name, Amen and Amen!

Four chapters of the Bible 'confirmed' true in major discovery

A major discovery in Turkey has 'confirmed' that four chapters of the Bible are likely true.
Archaeologists uncovered over 60 ancient tombs in Colossae, the city immortalised in Saint Paul’s letters in the New Testament.
This follows other discoveries that shed light on Biblical passages, including at the Nahal Qomem archaeological site in Israel
The bulk of tombs at Colossae date back over 2,200 years and the discoveries were reported by the country’s state-run Anadolu Agency (AA) back on 6 October.
It sheds a new light on Colossae, the place known well as the home of an early Christian community Saint Paul addressed his Epistle to the Colossians to (the 12th book of the New Testament).
St Paul’s letter spans a whopping 95 verses across four chapters as he warns the people against false teachings and emphasises Jesus as supreme over all things.
The ancient city of Colossae is said to have lost prominence after an earthquake in the 1st century AD severely damaged it. It was rebuilt again eventually but ended up being abandoned following another earthquake.
Archaeologist Baris Yener said: “After removing the surface soil, we identified around 65 tombs, of which we excavated 60.”
He described the area as the ‘largest necropolis in Anatolia featuring rock-cut, trough-shaped tombs’. The excavators were surprised to find so many side-by-side tombs when the area is so confined as they also contained an impressive array of artefacts. (LAD Bible) Read More
