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 †

“Jesus!
It is the name which moves the harps of heaven to melody.
Jesus!
The life of all our joys. If there be one more charming, more precious than another, it is this name. It is woven into the very warp and woof of our psalmody. Many of our hymns begin with it, and, scarcely any, that are good for anything, end without it
It is the sum total of all delights. It is the music with which the bells of heaven ring; a song in a word; an ocean for comprehension, although a drop for brevity; a matchless oratorio in two syllables; a gathering up of the hallelujahs of eternity in five letters.”
Who could possibly write that most beautiful passage with such joyous emotion?
Charles Spurgeon. There could be no other.
As we head into Thanksgiving, I wish for all of our family here, and for those who simply pass through, a bless-ed day, giving thanks for His past mercies and grace….with faithful hopes that there will be more blessings to come.
Wow….❣️
This certainly makes waking up (sigh) … uh, 🤔,
…. joyful ❣️❣️❣️
Thank you, Betsy😇.
You are indeed a lovely human.
-You are truly one of God’s Gifts.
Good morning, Patience and Ma😘😘 When I read that I was instantly infected with his joy…and I wanted to share it with all my beloved friends.
And bless you so much for your lovely message…it’s going straight into that place in my heart where I keep such treasures….💖
Good morning Patience!
Good morning, Pa❣️
Don’t know what it is about you that lifts my spirits
…. but you do.
-thanks, Pa💕
❤️😁
Good morning Bet! Praise the Name of Jesus! This morning I am thankful for the blessing of having 90 year old mother who got up at 5 to make her Tiropita so that it would be ready for Nipper’s breakfast when he got up. Oh, and she made it big enough so there was plenty leftover for us, too. And right now I’m enjoying the blessings of Nipper making noises around the house. Will be taking him to his mama sometime this morning, then hopefully will see him again before the weekend is over. ❤️😍
Good bless-ed morning, my dearest friend.
So much to be grateful for in your home. And I’m as sure you are as appreciative of these moments as I am of anything else. I can feel it in your comment.💕
What went straight to my heart was your speaking of the sounds of an active much loved grandson in your house. Mark them well. I hold in my heart similar memories of such sounds when mine were small, and then of the grands. There is no price to put on them.
I always think if we are paying attention amongst all the things that life hurls at us, we can focus on those blessings and understand that they are so fleeting in the scheme of things. The moment passes too quickly but leaves permanent and indestructible footprints within us.
I find that this time of year for me such memories seem to rise unbidden. And with them a touch of melancholy that of course travels with them. You will know it as well I am sure.
But such memories are beautiful gifts which I treasure and I wouldn’t trade them for “all the tea in China”.
Reading about your morning has given me such a lift,and I am so grateful for it, G…love ya much, my brother in Christ.
Love you too, dear sister. ❤️
Holding that close to my heart,G💕…
Amen, Betsy. Praying in unity for all Treepers and families. Thankful for all of you. God is most merciful to place us into families.
Blessings & Love
Praying also, JWoo, that this Thanksgiving, families which have been torn asunder during the last two years because of machinations so evil, and whose stories within the comments on other threads here have made us all who have read them grieve for their situations, can begin to heal. That hearts will be softened so the threads of those families can be rewoven.
That is a prayer I will be offering tonight to the Great Healer, that He has a few miracles to hand for just this purpose.🙏

The Distraction of Contempt
Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us! For we are exceedingly filled with contempt. —Psalm 123:3
What we must beware of is not damage to our belief in God but damage to our Christian disposition or state of mind. “Take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously” (Malachi 2:16). Our state of mind is powerful in its effects. It can be the enemy that penetrates right into our soul and distracts our mind from God. There are certain attitudes we should never dare to indulge. If we do, we will find they have distracted us from faith in God. Until we get back into a quiet mood before Him, our faith is of no value, and our confidence in the flesh and in human ingenuity is what rules our lives.
Beware of “the cares of this world…” (Mark 4:19). They are the very things that produce the wrong attitudes in our soul. It is incredible what enormous power there is in simple things to distract our attention away from God. Refuse to be swamped by “the cares of this world.”
Another thing that distracts us is our passion for vindication. St. Augustine prayed, “O Lord, deliver me from this lust of always vindicating myself.” Such a need for constant vindication destroys our soul’s faith in God. Don’t say, “I must explain myself,” or, “I must get people to understand.” Our Lord never explained anything— He left the misunderstandings or misconceptions of others to correct themselves.
When we discern that other people are not growing spiritually and allow that discernment to turn to criticism, we block our fellowship with God. God never gives us discernment so that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.
WISDOM FROM OSWALD CHAMBERS
We are only what we are in the dark; all the rest is reputation. What God looks at is what we are in the dark—the imaginations of our minds; the thoughts of our heart; the habits of our bodies; these are the things that mark us in God’s sight.

He raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: and hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

This article from Fox. Attention grabbing headlines about potential catastrophe of RSV from
Medical expert is a pediatrician in a large group that did not care for this patient.
Looks like Fox news is peddling Fear. Poor journalism
https://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/new-york-mom-baby-struggled-rsv-urgent-message-parents
RSV stories are everywhere and appear to be the new covid
They keep trying to stampede us all into the Corral.
There are hospitals in Oregon which are now under investigation for inflating the numbers of children with RSV they say are occupying beds.
My trust in the medical “profession” is no more. And I say this as one whose father was a surgeon. But a doctor whose dedication to his patients and the Hippocratic oath was his life.
How “fortuitous” that Pfizer just happens to have developed another beastly jab for this sudden appearance of rampant RSV!! Their other genocidal bioweapon is killing and destroying life everywhere but people are wising up. They are upping the ante. Now they are targeting our gifts from God more intensely.
More propaganda, more fear incoming from satan’s laboratories and his little helpers (media) everywhere.
Yes, great gig for pfizer.
Convenient how they crush immune systems with a toxxine, then recommend another poison injection to ratify the virus you now cant fight off because of the previous injection.
Good morning, Slowcobra.
My view is exactly that. The rancid Pharma Pandora’s box has been designed and opened. As I continue to extrapolate what has been done and the hideous results far far down the road we are on, I try to avert my gaze from what I’m seeing…and I can not. Mengele was a piker compared to these monsters. Hell is empty, and all the devils are here (Shakespeare).
Would that everyone could see it.
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/science-for-hire-gary-null-cola/
Riveting documentary!
That article was very interesting, as not one mention of whether the child received the toxxine. Bet an ice cream sundae she did. Her immune system is completely compromised now, and can’t fight (what the CDC calls) a ‘mild’ virus similar to a cold.
And the mom blamed other parents for sending their children to school sick.
It is staggering to me how effectively the propaganda machine which I no longer called the media has been able to completely cover up the fact that the life insurance companies have seen a 40% increase in death benefit claims for people of working age, 18 to 65 years old.
FORTY PERCENT INCREASE in deaths from all causes …. but ONLY since they rolled out the Jabs.
No increase in deaths in 2020, per federal statistics.
Greetings Treepers!
Massive thanks to each of you who thought of, or prayed for us in the passing of Pup.
I scanned the OT last evening and saw the posts left yesterday which I will read with my MILaw, nephew and Rhonda this evening. Again…thank you.
This Treehouse is sorta like a little family tree to hang out in. I never dreamed such a thing could be. An online hangout. I’m so grateful.
I think we should consider meeting up as a group. I’m southeast of Dallas at beautiful Cedar Creek Reservoir and am willing to drive to make it happen. Perhaps we could meet somewhere very public for a meal or cup of coffee. We have 11 homes in our little subdivision and three are waterfront rentals we could rent. Please give it some thought.
Grace to each of you and Happy Thanksgiving! ❤️🔥✝️🔥❤️
Can I just lurk in a corner?
As beautiful as that idea is…and I can feel the love in it, dear Frank…I will have to be in the corner with you, Smelly Dave. That’s all right…we can hear from where we are.
I’m in central Alabama, but i would drive anywhere for that. This branch of the treehouse has been a blessing and a comfort to me during hard times. I treasure each one of you on here.
For us when we were in Wales, it was the village post office…afterwards strolling to a local cafe for a cup of tea and a sausage roll or a custard tart. We knew everyone, their families, their lives, their concerns, their sadnesses, and their joys. Everyone mattered. Oh how I miss those days….
Oh Frank…. if only💞
Bless your heart frank.

PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
Good morning, dear duchess. Being content in whatever circumstances is just one thing I have always fervently hoped for for my children, and now for my grands. What a peaceful place to be…
I call it being comfortable in your skin. That top picture reminds me of the ton of monarchs we had visiting our vegetable garden. The zucchini flowers are very similar to that one.
That works as well, G…very well. Now that you mention it, while it has been a while since I saw zucchini in a garden, of course they do! Food for you, and food for his most delicate creations. Wonderful!!💕
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.

Verse of the Day for Wednesday, November 23, 2022

“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.”

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!

The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. – Psalm 34:18
The life experiences of David ran the gamut of emotions. He went back to his sheep after being anointed to be king of Israel in a private ceremony by Samuel. King Saul brought David to his court to play soothing music on his harp, and later David killed Goliath. After Saul tried to kill David with his spear, David lived in constant danger, pursued by the king until Saul died! Finally, David assumed the position God had designated for him so many years earlier.
Samuel had come to Jesse at God’s command to anoint Jesse’s son to become king. When the prophet saw Eliab, the eldest, he thought, surely, he was the one. Samuel was introduced to seven of Jesse’s sons, but God said no to them all. “For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart” (1 Samuel 16:7). The Lord had chosen David, the youngest.
David expressed tremendous emotion throughout his life and reign, rejoicing with great enthusiasm but also displaying brokenness and contriteness of heart when he sinned. He serves as an example for you. The Lord is tenderhearted and forgiving to the repentant, mourning heart (Matthew 5:4; Titus 3:4-5). C.H. Spurgeon says that “just when the sinner condemns himself the Lord graciously absolves him. If we chasten our own spirits [being sore with conviction], the Lord will spare us.”
God sees your heart. He is near to you and hears your cry. Pray that the broken-hearted in this nation will turn to the Lord in repentance.

Always praying for this very thing, Poyeema…🙏
Good Morning my fellow Treepers!
I am grateful for the Treehouse, I am grateful for the Tree, I am grateful for each of you Treepers, and our Creator for whom we live, breath, and whose Glory and Truth we are called into the flesh to reflect in every corner of the Earth.
Thank you for the way you collectively bring Truth, sometimes heard to bear, sometimes angering — but more importantly, for the hope you bring with it.
We are prepared and able to continue to reflect His glory in all circumstances — whether in America in its optimum prime, or in a Venezuela, or Iranian, or Russian state. You all show me that God will prevail, no matter what life transpires to be this side of the Jordan.
We have a God in the spiritual realm who dwells in us, and will not die, and whose Spirit will give us what we need.
I pray we are collectively and individually able to work in such a way to rebuild this country he gave us through the humble wisdom of our founders — despite their imperfections, and saw fit to give us the American Republic with which we have been blessed.
I pray that we can have the strength, courage, wisdom, and effectiveness to not only restore it, but to be an agent of transformation among those around us: family, citizens, non-citizens, Christians and Non-Christians — that we may be able to demonstrate the hope and grace that transforms others with love and effectiveness in every thought, word, and action we live.
What to add to your beautiful, heartfelt post…I can think of nothing, Country Doc. You express in the fullness of your words what we all feel. There is joy and faith in what you wrote.
So having said I can add nothing, I’ve suddenly found some thoughts which have bubbled to the surface…
I was guided here, I am certain, long ago; and it has been an incredible journey with other branch dwellers, some absent and missed dreadfully (you all know who you are) and others I look forward to seeing every day, who act as an anchor for me…all of us who are not only friends but family. And all blessed with the presence of Almighty God amongst us.
And for that I give the deepest thanks every day but especially during this bless-ed season of thankfulness and joyous expectation.
Hoping to see you more, Country Doc. Blessings to you and all your family.🙏
CountryDoc, gonna tell you a secret. 🤫
Your postings had a lot to do with my reading comments here. -thanks!
I simply love this place.
✝️❤️🇺🇸
Can I up vote you more, my friend? It seems not…but ya know I surely do want to….😉
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❣️
😊!!!
CountryDoc, good to see you again!
Thank you for those words. And as betsy said, you expressed what we all feel.
So much comfort here on the branches, an opportunity for which I thank sundance.
For which ‘we’ thank sundance!!
👍💕
Amen
Amen, and the Imitation of Christ and Christianity itself is the very means of this ultimate transformation. The singular characteristic of Christian believers down through the ages has been persistence, honesty and faith in adversity, even to the point of physical persecution and death. But we know that the end will be glorious for those who believe in Him and are forgiven for their human transgressions. Righteous anger can be intensely motivating but it must always be tempered with love and the willingness to inform, educate and spread the Truth to our brothers and sisters according to the Great Commission from Our Lord.
Oh my, Flyover!! This one makes the heart sing! Joy in every word. I saw your comment below mine above. I couldn’t wait to see what of Spurgeon’s you posted. And you are right…how exuberant both yours and mine are. How well they go together this morning. His devotionals and writings speak to me as no others can. Blessings always to you….B
Vass explained that the New World Order is vulnerable to continuous technology innovation, and continuous regional economic growth. The economic and financial power of the corporations depends upon a static world economy that allows corporations to use global political power to direct the economic benefits of limited growth to themselves and their crony capitalist partners.

The recent collapse of FTX is going to involve trillions of lost money before it’s over.
FTX’s collapse will take small and large businesses with it and has exposed a money laundering scheme involving Ukraine and kickbacks to corrupt politicians of both parties in America.
Wall Street should be in a unprecedented panic trying to figure out which companies are not going to be destroyed yet they are acting like it’s just another day.
This disconnect from reality is unbelievable yet there it is right in front of the world’s eyes.
And a judge has ordered names redacted…fancy that!! Madoff was a petty criminal compared to the corrupt operators of the FTX scandal.

Beautiful day on the Oregon Coast. Handsome husband of 58 years suggested lunch at Georgies. Oh yeah! so we walk into Georgies haven’t been there for looong time as so expensive. As I limp through door, front desk explodes with “bloody mary ASAP” How do they remember me??? Corner table in bar. Maria not there but Tessa has large bloody mary ready. world class. I have cod fish and chips. Handsome has steak. bloody mary goes down too fast. Handsome says I may have another. Ocean nearly flat. sunshine sparkles. but no whales. second bloody makes me woozy. then it’s smoke in the park. He has Burma road and I have mild Virginia low country in our pipes. Tide running out. bar flat, if you can imagine. could be middle of July. Then its home again, home again jiggity jig. Life is great at 81. believe me. especially so
You rock, merry! Glad you enjoyed the day!
As we await our meals we discuss how the Spear Danes and Beowulf and his Geets would react to the food at Georgies. We imagine their dragon boats being dragged up the beach.
Oh Merry!! What a happy day you two have had. Wonderful…💕👍
We wish we could have Grandad, Dad, Uncle Jim and many others with us to admire the Pacific and the good grub.
also thankful Georgies still allows us to trade them some papers from Handsome’s wallet for good grub.
Amen…
Amen.
