Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Capitol Police to use Army surveillance gear to monitor Americans and ‘identify emerging threats’ https://americanmilitarynews.com/2021/07/capito
Perhaps the words “…help our self esteem to rise from the gutters, for us to remember just exactly who we are, and from which Holy source we have been carved.” is by THEIR definition an “emerging threat”. And they’d be 100% correct – because if remembering just who we are, and from whence we come is a “threat”, then I’m very sorry for them – do they believe their surveillance, their batons, their gas masks, their presence is a match for the creator?? Have they no knowledge, have they no understanding, do they not read, do they not tremble at the first tremor, the first shaking, at the awesome power of creation, or have they forgotten, do they now believe themselves above the creator – fools.
Isaiah 27:11 For this is a people without discernment; therefore he who made them will not have compassion on them, he that formed them will show no favor.”
Hey surveillance, these are not my words, these are not my thoughts, these are not some political propaganda, this my friends is the TRUTH – you don’t need to surveil the truth – or maybe you do (learn something) – Let’s ease you in with an old favorite and possibly a hint. Relax, we all just want to get along – become buddies again.
Excellent post and scriptural reference.
Amen. Great post.

Hm. I wonder what Ron DeSantis will say about this?
Tucson hadn’t worked out and I was coming back. She’s been OK with my move but we hadn’t talked about what would happen if I came back. I was supposed to be successful—-and now, quite decidedly, I wasn’t. Realizing that I was in the wrong place, I simply pulled up stakes . . .and left.
Didn’t tell ‘em I was leaving and, most probably, they didn’t much care. The road back on I-10 was long and, given the hours, was largely populated by me and the truckers. I made it through El Paso without stopping but fatigue was beginning to set in at about the time I found the restaurant in Ft. Stockton.
It was sitting right on the highway. Brightly lit it was an appealing oasis to my 3AM eyes. I remember walking in and immediately feeling a sense of relief. I felt that I had somehow arrived. It felt like Texas. It felt like home.
The big issue was this: was she going to be OK with me coming back? Fortunately, she was. And now—53 years and counting—she’s still the love of my life. Now on to the rest of the story.
A few years later, I came across Michael Martin Murphy’s “5 O’clock” song. When I first heard his verses, I was immediately captivated. I was convinced that I’d been in that very restaurant at about the time he’d written his song. I remembered the post–card rack at the cash register. I remembered that the kitchen faced the front door so that the cooks could essily see who’d just walked in from the highway.
Listening to his song, it was all so very familiar. Was that the place he was writing about? Hell, I don’t know. But even if I didn’t find Cactus Jack, I still choose to believe that it was. And if it wasn’t, well it should have been . . .
You’d best get your tissues out for this one . . .

When The Lord Became Angry
By Pastor Cornelius R. Stam
“And He saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.
“And when He had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, He saith unto the man. Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other” (Mark 3:4,5).
Why did our Lord become angry when the Jewish leaders refused to answer His questions? He was “grieved for the hardness of their hearts.” Their silence was not the silence of ignorance but of willfulness. They had “watched Him whether He would heal… on the sabbath day; that they might accuse Him,” but they could not tell Him what was wrong about it. Indeed, when He asked them what was wrong they refused to answer His questions.
How inconsistent! How unreasonable! How unjust! And, as we read the context, we are amazed to find that this sullen, stubborn opposition came not from the Sadducees but from the Pharisees, not the religious “liberals” but the “conservatives,” the Bible-believers of the day!
They were the orthodox group. Nevertheless, because of their pride and bigotry generations following have looked down upon them and have pronounced with contempt the name Pharisee.
Paul stood with them, doctrinally, against the Sadducees. He said: “Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee” (Acts 23:6), nevertheless the Pharisees had joined the Sadducees in their opposition to him and to the glorious message he proclaimed. In this respect times have not changed, for those who stand boldly for God’s message and program for our day will find themselves still opposed by Sadducees and Pharisees alike.

Mark 3:4 And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.
5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
Acts 23:6 ¶ But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
Jesus’ rap on the Pharisees was “They lay weights on others they are not willing to bear themselves.”

NATIONAL FRENCH FRY DAY | July 13
National French Fry Day on July 13th recognizes a staple food on menus across the country. It comes in so many different cuts and styles, there’s a favorite for everyone to enjoy!
French fries, also known as chips, fries, finger chips, or French-fried potatoes, are batons of deep-fried potatoes.
It is believed by some that the term “French” was introduced to the potatoes when the American soldiers arrived in Belgium during World War I and consequently tasted Belgian fries. Since French was the official language of the Belgian Army at that time, it is possible the American soldiers began calling the fried potatoes “French” fries.
Huge french fry fan here. But I never really liked “crinkle cut” fries. Yes they could hold more ketchup but they just didn’t taste the same.
Besides, no self-respecting French fry shop down at the beach ever sold anything but standard or shoestring fries.
In Ocean City MD, that would be Thrashers Boardwalk Fries ?
When he was a toddler my (mildly) Autistic son with sensory issues subsisted on McDonald’s fries, chicken nuggets and Nestle’ Quick
Chocolate Milk.
Concerned we consulted the Dietician at his Autism Clinic.
Upon hearing he wanted catsup on his fries she said:
“He’s fine.”

Did you know there was a unique group of people that always knew what to do and when to do it? A group of folks that had such perception and wisdom that a whole nation followed them and waited for their example? – It’s true. They were called the sons of Issachar, and they were one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Now, not knowing a damn thing about any of this, I first heard it explained by a man, some refer to as “the crazy Rabbi” – although after listening, I got stuck with the name Jonatan (spoken in a Cuban Spanish accent) (inside joke). Anyway, the sons of Issachar – aren’t we in a way those sons??, those who could “read the times”? – aren’t we the apostles, one and the same??. And if we are, then it’s entirely possible that we ARE living the new testament – today. Crazy thought hey??, but just give my good wise and quite frankly in my opinion, genius friend a listen – you might just hear a few lightbulbs going off – but nothing to worry about, it’s cool, it’s genius, as expected.
This is a MUST WATCH video.
Jonathan Cahn describes the striking parallels between the events in ancient Israel and the events in this nation, specifically beginning with the Clintons rise to power up through the events of this January. The dates, the numbers are exactly the same as recorded in the Old Testament and as recorded in recent years history.
At around 30:15, Cahn tells us what we must do, now that our nation is under the leadership of worshippers of Baal.
Jonathan Chan is absolutely awesome. He has been on target for some time.
THE PRICE OF VISION
“In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw also the Lord.” Isaiah vi. 1
Our soul’s history with God is frequently the history of the “passing of the hero.” Over and over again God has to remove our friends in order to bring Himself in their place, and that is where we faint and fail and get discouraged. Take it personally: In the year that the one who stood to me for all that God was, died – I gave up everything? I became ill? I got disheartened? or – I saw the Lord?
My vision of God depends upon the state of my character. Character determines revelation. Before I can say “I saw also the Lord,” there must be something corresponding to God in my character. Until I am born again and begin to see the Kingdom of God, I see along the line of my prejudices only; I need the surgical operation of external events and an internal purification.
It must be God first, God second, and God third, until the life is faced steadily with God and no one else is of any account whatever. “In all the world there is none but thee, my God, there is none but thee.”
Keep paying the price. Let God see that you are willing to live up to the vision.

I think the only problem here is that #WheresHunter should be shirtless like his friend Putin.
Maybe with a few smears of red paint on his chest, and a few tattoos of state secrets, and a list of his children’s names, so he and The Chairman can keep them straight.
Well, Hunter’s crack pipe is a-smokin’ in his mouth.
Lol – I think Hunter is still chewing over how come those patterns seem to appear all over the place. From atoms to galaxies, music to math, and I wonder if he knew the very wise Chinese man who invented chess (was it Confucius??)(they should have stuck with his wisdom) figured out the binary system that runs all our computer systems today – his only problem was they hadn’t invented electricity yet. I did ask if somebody could forward him a utube vid of the explanations some time back – of just those patterns, and repeated in art. Have to admit, I have the same fascination myself – maybe a bright dude like Ricky Gervais can explain it to him – he’s got that deep searching mind – its there somewhere behind the little (disturbing??) giggle. (Ricky style)
Verse of the Day for Tuesday, July 13, 2021
✟
“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Romans 10:17 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, amen.
Thank you for posting this every day.
Several years ago I was active in Kairos prison ministry, a weekend long event in which we shared the Christian faith and God’s love with prisoners who signed up to attend. During one particular weekend, I experienced spiritual warfare like I never had before. I praise God that one member in our group had the wisdom to lead us in praying aloud for the Armor of God before we went through the security gates each morning. Initially I thought her insistence on this might be just a touch “dramatic.” But before the weekend was over, I would not have wanted to take one step further without praying for the Armor of God.
God is faithful!
. . . but deliver us from the Evil One.
The Jesus Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon me, a sinner.

For a truly sickening experience view the 1940
Howard Hawks “screwball comedy” “His Girl Friday”,
Cary Grant, Rosalind Russell.
I caught a few minutes on TCM today.
It was all there, loathsome media, corrupt politicians, trigger happy “rifle squad” cops, the mocking of the “Red Menace”, outright criminality, and innocent working class Americans caught in the gears of the Elite Machine and Crushed.
What made it so sickening was that what was supposed to be side-splittingly hilarious in 1940,
isn’t—
not in America 2021.
According to IMDB:
“Opening credits prologue: It all happened in the “Dark Ages” of the newspaper game–when to a reporter “Getting that story” justified anything short of murder.
Incidentally you will see in this picture no resemblance to the man and woman of the press today.”
Sure.
That 1940 sarcasm isn’t funny today either.

Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and his family as they seek to lead America back to You. Also, we pray for Angels to protect and support our Sundance as he works for justice and peace.
