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 †

OTTAWA, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) — This morning, thousands of concerned parents, children and citizens descended upon Canada’s capital of Ottawa, and other cities across the country, for the much-anticipated Million Person March against LGBT indoctrination in the nation’s schools.
Their bank accounts will now be frozen.
Nee is David playing Bach’s 1st lute suite . . . Enjoy Treeper friends . . . 🙂
Good morning, Garrison😊
Enjoy? Oh yes I did! How could I not? Blessings, my friend and thank you 😘
Mornin’ Bet 🙂 Going to see my GP doc this morning. We’ll aet up a referral for P/T.
👻

Thanks, Patience love 😉
Excellent!!!! That should get you right. I’m finding that as I age my bruises and bumps don’t heal as fast as they used to, which is annoying. Godspeed!
Oh, and just finished listening to this short work for guitar on my classical Sirius station, Scott Tennant performing . Thought of you…

Been messing with the kitchen plumbing all morning long. Our ranch guy and I installed a new faucet (mostly him doing the work because he can get under the sink better than I can). We got the faucet in but had to replace the cold water shut off valve and after 2 attempts there is still a minor leak. So I decided it’s time to call the plumber. Grrrr.
Afternoon, Mr Plumber😎 And UGH!!!!! I hope you have a good one. Chris, until his surgeries this year did all ours, but, alas… Time moves on. My gosh…electricians and plumbers make a good living. And no college debt! What’s not to love?
But having to get one out makes the heart sink. Hope you are leak free after he fixes. 💕
We should be dear sister. They can’t come until Monday afternoon but it’s a small leak and we’ll manage with a small bucket under the sink. ❤️😘
Hi, Bet 🙂 Saw my doc. Going for serious balance oriented PT. They specialize in foot problems—which I have.
A beautiful piece, Bet. Scott is a member of the LAGQ –all of whom were Pepe’s students. Nice guy, by the way.
What a sensory feast❣️
Thanks, my man Garrison.😎
🙂
lovely music in a perfect setting.

Time for some RUSH. The audio is excellent here and reminds me of a Sundance post a while back about The Trees. Make sure to read the comments below that article. Very well done everyone! Links below:
The Trees begins at around the 5:00 min. mark….

You had me at Rush, Neil is sorely missed.
Never a bad show outta about the ~10 I attended, remembered the ear plugs after the first concert I had some permanent hearing loss in my left ear being 10 rows in front left of stage.
I highly recommend musicians earplugs, amazon has them.
RUSH was never really loud in Salt Lake City. Didn’t hurt my ears anyway.
But, then there’s RATT. Back then, RATT was the headline act. Guess who opened? Bon Jovi. Couldn’t hear a damn thing for a week after that one.
I studied Neil Peart as a drummer myself. Hard to believe he’s gone.
Shameful.

“According to J6ers from inside the jail, they are being quarantined. They are not allowed visitors. They are also not allowed to move around the jail. Inmates are also not receiving recreational time. I am also learning that these defendants have not received religious services in months.”
Have any J6ers been released on bail?
How many J6ers will not get a trial by their peers?
How many have died while incarcerated?

Interesting. I’m on the west coast; I watched this video about 10:30 last night (1:30 am east coast) and it was great!
So I come back here today and now there’s a little circle with an exclamation point in it and the words Not found underneath.

9/21/2023 – How we will know our high calling of God, and the faith of Jesus Christ
Psalm 78:1-8 “Give ear, O My people, to My law: incline your ears to the words of My mouth. I will open My mouth in a parable: I will utter *dark sayings (a puzzle; things which in order to be solved require study and effort) of old: which We have heard and known (John 3:11), and our fathers have told us. We will not hide them from their children, showing to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, and His strength, and His wonderful works that He has done. For He established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children: that the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: that they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments: and might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that *set not their heart aright (prepared not their heart), and whose spirit was not steadfast with God.”
Matthew 13:10-11 “And the disciples came, and said to Him, Why [do] You speak to them in parables? He answered and said to them, Because it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.”
Amos 3:7 “Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he reveals His *secret (consultation in close deliberation) to His servants the prophets.”
Psalm 25:14 “The *secret (by implication, to sit down to found, to consult; i.e.; ‘a company of persons in close deliberation’) of the LORD is with them that fear Him; and *He will shew them His covenant (His covenant to make them know it).”
No one is greater, or of higher authority and power, than God. Yet He doesn’t come to us in the form of His Almighty glory and divinity; but in the humiliated form of a servant, as a man; and having gentle compassion on the ignorant and lost and unfit for the Presence of God. God sent His Son Jesus into the world in such a way as to make us understand how much we are loved and respected; and so He teaches us, as we are able to understand.
That’s why God takes from families and cities of their own children and neighbors, of their own flesh; in order to bring the whole people His Good News of mercy and salvation. That’s why He calls out the littlest and least; so He can convey to the whole family and the whole city, His words and His thoughts to do them good; that He is mindful of them, and He knows their sorrows, and is come to save them.
David was the youngest son of Jesse; and was sent out to feed and care for his father’s flocks. In so doing, God taught him through his experiences, and caused David to grow into that “man after His own heart” so that He could bring him to feed and care for His whole people Israel. David was a man after God’s own heart; and all his desire and purpose, was to fulfill His will.
Saul however did not choose the same, when it was offered to him. God called him and appointed him to be king, when he was little in his own eyes; and he was willing to go out looking for his father’s lost mules beyond the time. Even when God gave him the real experience of “making him another man,” and putting His Spirit in Saul, so that he prophesied in the company of the prophets; yet when the test came for him to do God’s commandments; he chose instead what was best for himself, and rejected the commandment of God: so he was rejected from being king of Israel.
The twelve were chosen, to be with Jesus, and that He might send them out to continue the same ministry which He Himself had begun in the world. They were called and chosen to follow Him, as He was their example; for them to do as He had done, and for His righteous cause.
If we can picture someone, or someones, we know; who have all their lifetimes had it especially evil and abusive; and it has made them extremely difficult to deal with them; we have to understand, first of all, that God has given them to us, and we to them, for a good reason. We have to know, that God has called us; not to be lords over them, or to be their superiors; but to work for saving their souls, for bringing them the same healing and deliverance God has brought to us; that He might do for them likewise.
When showing the sins, and bringing everything to light; as in the very grievous history of Israel in Psalm 78; these things are spoken of God as a parable, and as a puzzle to be solved. A parable is used to take familiar things, real things, to illustrate moral and spiritual teaching. The “puzzle to be solved” is the “mystery of the kingdom of heaven” which is withheld from the crowds, for the reasons mentioned of God; but because God still searches and seeks to save them.
The things that they as yet have not eyes to see, nor ears to hear, nor a heart able to understand; the parable and the dark saying, the Spirit employs to speak to them, “as they are able to hear;” for it requires study and effort, thinking and examining and judging one’s self, in order to solve. Things which are true and familiar, people can identify with; and the knowledge of good and evil, and the moral conscience we all have; are how God can show, what we otherwise would not be able to bear, if He simply let us hear His voice from heaven and we saw Him in all His power and glory; which would consume us like a moth in the flame.
The truth is told, because the evil must be exposed and condemned and disowned, for healing to come. Evil is to be condemned; and we are to be condemned for loving the evil and committing the evil. But the light of God in Jesus Christ coming in the flesh; does not so, to expose us and shame us and leave us unfit for the Presence of God; but to give us the light, so we can see our Savior and our only salvation.
That’s the reason why God has called us and chosen us from among our people; to be His outstretched hand of gentleness and kindness, and for His acts of mercy to our people. He chooses and takes from families and cities, one or two of their children, because He loves those families and cities; and taking of their own children should show them that love, and that He does know their sorrows and troubles in this our low estate.
When we really come to understand these things; we will begin to understand how Jesus was willing and able to subject Himself in faith, to all that He suffered at the hands of those in positions of authority, who did Him wrong. When we begin to understand these things, then we will begin to know what Spirit we are of; and how Jesus could say from the cross,as His last words and decision about the world; “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.” And we will know our high calling of God, and the faith of Jesus Christ.
Acts 20:18-21 “And when they were come to him, he said to them, You know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons, serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews: and how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have showed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house, testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Amen
WOW ..great videos Patty..watching the foal run around brings back memories 😂👍… the Houdini video was really fun also..thx..😀👍
🇺🇸💪😀👍
Glad you liked them, Jim. Did you notice Houdini passed up one stall with a horse in it? I guess he didn’t like that horse so much.
🤣😂…yes I did notice…I thought same thing ..not on the list 🤣👍

Those Aggies do some awesome things!
Am loving the names of the first and surrogate mares!
Pretty amazing what they can do now, isn’t it? I liked the names, too. The surrogate’s names seemed somehow appropriate, didn’t they?
Wonderful stories as usual, Patty.
The woman who raised Kyrie looks like she’s in seventh heaven with the three foals. That bio technology used to create the offspring is amazing in its own right. I had one question from that was if the woman was concerned about Kyrie’s health condition at the end of her life being genetically passed to the offspring…
I don’t believe laminitis is genetically passed on the foals. It’s more a condition that is created. By created I mean it is often a result of overfeeding – too much weight on the wall of the hoof – causing a breakdown in the hoof that results in permanent and painful lameness.
That’s good to read, Patty. I didn’t catch the name of the condition clearly so couldn’t look it up. Thank you for responding.
You’re very welcome, GB.
Wow … is all I can say. And I love chords mixed into Skunk’s guitar solos … they give off such a rich full sound …
Oh … and Baxter’s IQ is as complex as his guitar solos
Drop in at the 37:45 mark and hear a very interesting concept about God … nuclear physics and music.
👍👍👍
thank you kenji .. i loved that . i really like that guy tim . countdown to ecstasy ♥️ one of my absolute favorite albums.. and still listen to often.
My daughter’s nickname is ‘Jozie’…
We’re gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Josie comes home
We’re gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Josie comes home to stay
We’re gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Josie comes home

And now mid afternoon!! 😂 I honestly don’t know where the day has gone.
It’s feeling like Fall
Maybe where you are, my friend. Here?? (Checking) 93. We’ve got a ways to go, but boy oh BOY!! Am I ever looking forward to it.
Texas? Region?
♥️
what a feeling that must be..
Good morning all!
Helped Steve on his log cabin a bit late afternoon yesterday. He and Betty have been hitting it hard to try and get it finished before the cold weather comes. Looking great! Has enough courses done that when standing on the ground it comes up to my chest.
While Steve and I worked on cutting pieces and laying out where the window frames will be, Betty was using a drawl knife and a chisel debarking logs we are to use.
Each log has been cut flat on three sides and has one side that is natural. That natural side faces out. The natural side is debarked and then Steve cleans it up with 80 grit sand paper. The natural side faces out. Working on that project, it doesn’t take long to appreciate how much work it would be without power tools.
Post photos of the progress?
I am exhausted just hearing about all of your hard work!
Tornadoes ae now below the 50% on the year according to the inflation adjusted average. And once again, so far this year there has not been an EF-5 recorded.
If you pay attention to the news, you all know that ole Sole has been pretty active lately. Here is the current sunspot count data. You will notice that it is looking like the peak of this solar cycle will come during the first quarter of next year. Below is a link to what the sun looks like now.
Cutting across your splendid charts and info, rah, to leave this here for you.

Yep! They have just kept putting the squeeze on, year after year.
Now I agree with hands free for cell phones when driving. BUT, you can imagine what my thoughts were when I look down into a State Troopers car and see him using a cell phone, knowing that if I had got caught doing that the fine is $3,000 for the driver and up to $13,000 for the company.
And some of the stuff is just plain Chicken Shit!
But in 18 years of driving a big truck I got two tickets. One for speeding (2 mph over, though the officer said it was 9 mph over) and one for improper lane change.

Italian mathematician and astrologer (Ars Magna-1545), dies at 74
This is interesting to me as out of his many (inventions?) is the <Cardan joint AKA U-joint & double Cardan> which is what connects your steering wheel to your steering gear, used to be used on full size trucks 4 wheel drive for connecting the front axle, as well as the Cardan shaft (prop shaft) driving your rear axle in most vehicles. Constant Velocity (CV) for front wheel drive, the double Cardan was the first CV joint.

What a thrill to see the Italian Gardens of Maymont Park, Richmond, Va. embedded in the Cotton Eyed Joe video. There is a brief view of the 240 foot Carillon Tower, an actual musical instrument housing 53 brass bells. Every year The Richmond Concert Band (Yours truly, Principal Horn 1972-1977) accompanies the Carillon in the 1812 Symphony. Also included in the performance were 3, 75 millimeter howerizers.
How cool is that!!
One of their very best songs… beautifully sung
Paul Rodgers is my favorite rock vocalist of all time …
Paul Rodgers can do stuff others simply can’t do.
Back when Michael Bolton hit it big with “Sitting on the dock of the bay” there was some kind of music awards show. I seem to recall Bolton performed, but sang a different song.
Paul Rodgers did “Sitting on the dock of the bay”.
Bolton had to sit there and watch as Rodgers put on a clinic about how to do the song RIGHT.
It.was.awesome.
If you’ve never heard The Law, well, here is just one of the good songs from them.
Rodgers is awesome.
If you recall, we talked about “driving songs” awhile back.
Trust me, this one works, especially when it’s dark, for some reason.
Mann nnnn … I would loved to have seen that performance of dock of the Bay …
I can’t get enough FREE … here in 2023. Damn what a tight little 4-man band! Love them more today than in 1970
And Burdon’s voice is highhhhhh on my list.
I smoked my first cigarette at ten

Concerning disturbance off FL. Joe Bastardi thinks it will rapidly develop and bring hurricane force winds to North Carolina and Virgina this weekend. He says if it were up him they would already have warnings up along the NC coast.
The fact that now the NHC shows it as an invest on their map indicates that they are recognizing as tropical in nature, having a warm core and thus the potential to develop into a tropical cyclone.

appreciate the bastardi reports. thank you!
Your welcome.
I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth. – 3 John 1:4
More important than whom you marry, more important than your career, and more important than even your health is receiving Christ as your Savior and preparing for an eternity with Him. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6).
Today in American culture, there is a notion that whatever you believe to be true is true. Of course, you have to live according to what you think is true, but that does not make it true. The idea that believing something is true makes it true leads to tremendous errors in thinking and expectation. Many young people today do not realize that Jesus is Truth. Some may not have ever entertained the thought.
To echo today’s verse, how great and wonderful to know that your children are walking in the truth! There is no greater joy than when your children decide to follow Jesus. Today pray for the younger generations of the United States. Ask the Lord to open their eyes to who Jesus is and what He has done for them. Pray that they will receive Him as Savior and live for Him.
Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:37-38). Pray for the workers that your Heavenly Father is raising up to train today’s young people in Christ. Pray for a great revival to overtake this land, especially among children, teens, and young adults.

How true, how true! Cause and effect happens on every level; in the physical realms, and the moral and spiritual realms. That’s precisely WHY God sends a strong delusion, a working of error, and evil angels to trouble them; because they WILL NOT that this Jesus should rule over them. Then He gives them a king according to their own ways; and when they begin to feel what that really means, they scream and cry and pray like they were God’s people… But if they were of the truth, wouldn’t it also be, that they heard and received His Word when He brings it to them? Wouldn’t they also have long ago cast away and forsaken their old idols? Wouldn’t they understand, that they DO HAVE a King; and that they are NOT THEIR OWN?
Judges 17:6 (& 21:25) “In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.”
John 12:35 “Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while you have the light, that not darkness come upon you: for he that walks in darkness knows not where he goes.”
Luke 11:35 “Take heed (apply the mind, beware, pay attention, etc.) therefore that the light which is in you be not darkness.”
Matthew 6:23″But if your eye be evil (bad, diseased), your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!”
September 21
MORNING
We know that all things work together for good to them that love God. Rom. 8:28
Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain. Psa. 76:10
Ye thought evil against me: but God meant it unto good, Gen. 50:20
All things are yours; whether … the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; and ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s. I Cor. 3:21-23
All things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. II Cor. 4:15-17
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:2-4
EVENING
The communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all. II Cor. 13:14
I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. John 14:16, 17
He shall not speak of himself. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. John 16:13, 14
The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Rom. 5:5
He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? I Cor. 6:17, 19
Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. Eph. 4:30
The Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Rom. 8:26

PELOSI LIED! Former Police Chief Sund Testifies Pelosi Called Him 3 Times on J6 – Has the Records – Rumble Video
https://commoncts.blogspot.com/2023/09/pelosi-lied-former-police-chief-sund.html
The former police chief quickly began writing, on record, about security failures not of his making. He’s certainly a believable witness. I like a strong man with an axe to grind to protect himself. He’s bold, so he likely has more immutable facts and evidence. His letter to Nancy Pelosi, dated February 1, 2021, was probably unexpected, but more than adequate to show his determination to make the truth known. He knows the best defense in Nancy’s world is a QUICK offense.
President Thomas Jefferson has been quoted as saying, “No man has good enough memory to be a successful liar.”
Other quotes about truth—collected along my life’s way:
Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth. ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt, radio address 26 October 1939.Time, beneath whose influence the pyramids moulder into dust, and the flinty rocks decay, does not and cannot destroy a fact, nor strip a truth of one portion of its essential importance. ~ Anonymous statement, quoted in The Homilist.Truth is often eclipsed but never extinguished. ~ Livy, Annales, XXII
My Hope is Built on Nothing Less
Yes! His name is Jesus!
Amen
Love that hymn 🕊🍃
Great Hymn! One that I used to sing loudly in my Lutheran church … before they went insanely political and cultural leftist

Verse of the Day for Thursday, September 21, 2023
✟
“A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good…”
Luke 6:45 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
Good morning, dear sis. Blessed be your day, my friend. I took a break yesterday which was busy in disjointed parts so decided to be still and refresh. Batteries recharged and back once more
All thanks be to our God🙏🏻🕊😘
Morning, Bet !!! We missed you – BUT
are happy you took time to refresh and
renew your spirit !!! ❤️
PRAYERS UP for those who. are hurting
and are in need of Heavenly Help !!!
🙏 🙏 🙏
HAVE A BERRY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️💙💜
I NEED HEAVENLY HELP
Have you noticed lately, Lord
I am shaky, unhinged, and floored
At what has just happened to me
I am not as sound as I used to be
My steps are labored I cannot sprint
My mind is sharp my muscles splint
My gait is slow and wouldn’t you know
My 100-yard dash it ain’t no mo
When I was young full of energy I was
My prowess in sport impressive it twas
But now I struggle just to keep going
As the years pass by I am slowing
I cannot complain by any measure
My life has taken on brand new treasure
My daily chores are so different now
An about turn they have taken somehow
I contemplate and meditate much more
My prayers are more meaningful than before
My divine appointment has been redefined
With His Divine Will it is much more aligned
Sometimes I need help keeping upright
A cane prevents me from taking flight
A handrail assists in climbing the stairs
Without these aids I could land anywheres
It is manifest madly maturing
How many more years there’s no assuring
But God has made provision for us
No reason to fret or kick up a fuss
He provides us with companions of all sorts
From animals to flowers diamonds and quartz
He turns our attention to things on high
He prompts us to look up into the sky
He sends us smiles and blessings each day
Just not in the ordinary or usual ways
A giggle here and a belly laugh there
From cyber friends on blogs everywhere
So if you are feeling old and less than useful
Remember there is more for you that’s museful
There are babies and kitties and puppies
And there are wokies, pokies and yuppies
There are nitpickers pastors and prophets
There is beauty in nature and soffits
We could be here all day naming the gifts
How marvelously God’s blessing uplifts
Suffice as to say on any given day
There are things that appear to get in the way
There are frustrations/delays we must endure
And many bumps in the road that is for sure
So if you are feeling bumped and bruised
And your body is reeling from being abused
Call on the Angels charged to assist you
And thank God they can never resist you!
D01: 02/10/2023
😊😍😊😍😊😍😊!!!!
Oh and 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
More and more I am praying for people in trouble, dear duchess. There are so many. How great is our Father that He hears every prayer as if the person praying were the only one?
❤️ ❤️ ❤️
PS…thank you for missing me💕)
Yes … of course there’s a song for Thursday. It’s when you don’t have to wear makeup … I guess? 🤷🏼♂️

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.
Me too, Betsy. I had hoped that the blowing of the shofars in Jerusalem on Sept 18 and 19th , Feast of Trumpets, would be that time. But, alas it was not to be. But it cannot be much longer as so many of the End Times prophesies have already happened.

PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
PURE IN HEART
Hearken Ye – Blest are the Pure in Heart;
For they shall see our God when they depart;
The secret of the Lord is surely theirs;
In Christ’s abode – their souls become heirs!
Their lives give glory to the Prince of Peace
Their love for Him is strong – it will not cease;
Like Him – they dwell in lowliness – with men;
Like Him – their pattern for holiness – Amen!
To the lowly soul – His grace He imparts;
With His Spirit pure – He fills their hearts;
For His cradle – and His heavenly throne;
He chooses the Pure in Heart – they alone!
Lord – Let us pray – Thy presence we seek;
Lord – For we pray – Thy blessing unique;
Give us – we pray – a pure and lowly heart;
The Grace from Your Spirit that You impart!
The temple within – we will surely refine;
For the pure resting place of the Divine;
Purify us, Oh Lord – that we may be worthy;
To receive Your Grace – wholly and humbly!
Give us this day your blessing, Oh Lord;
Keep us securely – surely in Your Word;
Let Your Spirit abide within us today;
For You are the Truth, the Life, and the Way!
Blest are the Pure in Heart – the Bible says;
For they are the ones who know God’s ways;
Create in us all – a heart that is pure;
So we will be servants of all – for sure!
Let not worldly concerns sweep us away;
Temptation and sinfulness – let us defray;
For it is in giving – that we will receive;
And the Pure in Heart – will ever believe!
The Glory of God – will be theirs to enjoy;
If they seek His face – in all they employ;
Grant us – Oh, Lord – a heart that is pure;
For the Pure in Heart – will surely endure!

“JEFFREY EPSTEIN IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG, IT GETS WORSE!” – Whitney Webb is interviewd on the show, “REDACTED’
Sigh….
It was meant as mockery … but my oh my … Those were the days. BTW … look around America … the MOST beautiful architecture … esp. homes were built in the Herbert Hoover ROARING 20’s. We should all be so lucky ever again
We didn’t know what we had until it was taken from us, Kenji. (I almost said “until we lost it”. And while there is some of that, “progress” is not always as great as it is made to sound. “New” is not always “Improved”.)
Norman Lear now 100 & still creating shows. The re-run’s of “All in The Family” document that many of today’s issues were also being debated in the 1970’s…cultures, climate, political parties.
Good grief! I had no idea he was still with us! Bet his mind is still sharp.
Here’s when the FBI closes in…..Full episode below. From the beginning:
MEATHEAD: “Archie, he’s violating the Bill of Rights! It’s against the Constitution!”
ARCHIE: “Don’t be bothering the U. S. Government with the Constitution.”
MEATHEAD: “Why? You afraid the government might read it???”
Meathead… biggest turd hypocrite.
(Applauding!!!!)
That ought to be added to his Wikipedia write-up…prominently!
Whoa!! Thank you, Justice! 👍🏻
We have 2 hours of All In The Family on MeTV every Sunday now. It’s still a hoot.

Ephesians 6:10-18
PROPHETIC WORD
Beloved Treepers!!
Archbishop Vigano has addressed the spiritual war we are fighting.
This is lengthy but necessarily so. There is much hope in his words always, but especially is there in these.
I pray, friends, you will take the time to read his Holy Spirit inspired address.
It s possible the most complete assessment and reassurance that those whose dark jackbootery and death inflicting psychopathy are satan led…and why it will completely, utterly fail!
Take heart, Christians. The Lord is with us in this battle and always🙏🏻🕊

John Campbell looks at the numbers of reported vaccine injuries now that the numbers from the VAERS (vaccine adverse event reporting system) have been made available and numbers from the UK and Australia as well. Just under 15 minutes in length:
Thanks. After watching, I looked at some of the comments.
Someone said we need to take action against those responsible so it doesn’t happen again. I thought this reply was especially interesting:
“We had them. They were called the Nuremburg trials and they came up with the Nuremburg code. We have a bill of rights we have code of ethics and the Hippocratic Oath. Non of these did or will stop this from happening again. It’s happening now. We need people to inform themselves, be responsible for their own health and those around them. We need people to speak up and stand up for themselves and others. Government is the problem not the solution.”
“On Thursday, Rupert Murdoch, 92, announced he will step down as chairman of Fox Corporation and Fox News”……he realized that battling Sundance is futile.

Hi all! Yesterday I was unable to access Treehouse due to relentless pop-ups. As soon as I deleted them, they would return. This happened on both my devices, although the pop-ups were different on each. Anyone else experience this? Today seems A-okay.
No, I use the Brave browser and search engine on laptop and android phone. Ads and trackers are totally blocked. I’ve had it several years with no issues.
Yes, this happens often lately.
On certain threads which Sundance posts I keep getting Google and ATT pop ups which deliver the joyful news “I’ve WON!!”
But only on certain threads which are addressing issues I’m sure the government jackboots would rather I not read.
Transparent? Oh yeeeeeeeah…

Does this qualify as 80’s ?
It sure does. Its on the countdown. made it to the top 100.
Several of us in central IL are attempting to show that electronic signatures required at voting is meant for future fraud. The state of IL is attempting to make this be permantent. The article at CT regarding Holder transforming CA voter sign-up by linking drivers license to the voter registar was the genisis of my thinking. I am asking for help in putting together a case for electronic signatures to occur. Right now all voter signatures are scanned which means there is a picture of the signature. What electronic signature creates is the signature being transformed into data code that could be transferred. That is my belief. Is there anyone out there with experience to support this idea?
Have wondered about this
this video is a treat a friend shared with me. It is 15-year old Emma Kok, and on Instagram she is quoted “I have a chronic illness called “gastroparesis” which means that my stomach is paralyzed and it really hurts. And the only medication that works for me is singing!” Here she is singing ‘Viola’
Beautiful voice … beautiful girl. Life can be so unfair and sad … but only the human spirit inspired by God’s eternal care and love can overcome. This girl has spread more beauty in the world than the pain she’s suffered. Her ledger is fully imbalanced toward the good and righteous
Tide surge:
Joe says:
I expect some of this surge to reach 6 feet Saturday pm and night On Delaware bay, and up to coastal south Jersey where the tide reached 4 feet above normal The onshore flow starts 36 hours in advance of the storm due to the gradient north of the storm and the center pulls up over Chesapeake bay Saturday. So from Va beach to Atlantic City this is worse than Sandy. Major flooding will hit further north too, but Sandy was much worse there
I sure wish it would make it to Delaware by Sunday and find Biden in his beach front home!

The Odious ‘New World Order’

“The upcoming conference will bring together presidents, dictators, prime ministers and potentates to consider a range of “Our Common Future” policy proposals from UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, a well-known socialist.
All of those plans are aimed at giving new and stronger authorities to the UN under the guise of fighting emergencies, protecting the planet, considering the interests of young people, and more. But as Alex warns, these are all just excuses to undermine national sovereignty and individual liberty while consolidating power at the global level. Thankfully, Americans can fight back—and win!”

“This is clearly a response to Covid, or rather the failure of Covid.
Essentially, the pandemic narrative broke because the current mechanisms of censorship didn’t work well enough. In response, the government has just legalized and out-sourced their silencing of dissent.”
…”huge financial pressure will be applied on tech giants to be “responsible” and “protect the vulnerable”. Meaning de-platforming and cancelling independent media via increasingly opaque “terms of service violations”
“This has been going on for years already, of course, but that was covert stuff. Now it’s legal in the UK, and is about to get a lot worse.
It won’t be just the UK either, considering the messaging on “misinformation” being seen at the UN in the last few days, we should expect something similar on a global scale.”
Most children his age in the U.S. aren’t even potty trained
As usual NOAA’s seasonal forecast is going to be wrong. I’m going to save this and then, if I remember, save it until the spring when I get what really happened. I would almost bet my life that it will be so miserably poor that they would have bene better off not publishing it.
They do this worthless stuff all the time. That is why Weatherbell and certain other private forecasting companies exist!

American Friends, have you heard of The Ark of the Covenant? There are many long videos and stories and searches related to it. I find a relatively short video that gives one of the better explanations and descriptions.
It was kept in the Temple in Jerusalem until the Babylonians destroyed the temple in 587BCE and it was lost. But it was most likely taken to safety somewhere. The Babylonians described in detail what they took and it was not on the list. Recent archeological diggings revealed a large underground tunnel that could be used to escape with the Ark. Enjoy the video!
This is really interesting. I have always wondered about it.
Thank you, David! Also, the Mercy Seat (Psalm 99:1; Isaiah 37:16)!
Is there a record of the Levites obeying Josiah’s command to return the ark to the Temple (2 Chronicles 35:3)? I ask especially in light of the subsequent statement by Necho (35:20-22).
Jeremiah 3:16-18:
“Then it shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and increased in the land in those days,” says the Lord, “that they will say no more, ‘The ark of the covenant of the Lord.’ It shall not come to mind, nor shall they remember it, nor shall they visit it, nor shall it be made anymore.
“At that time Jerusalem shall be called The Throne of the Lord, and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem. No more shall they follow the dictates of their evil hearts.”
“In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given as an inheritance to your fathers.”
Shalom!
Good question. I don’t know.
I will keep looking!
Shabbat Shalom!
