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 †

So many to choose from 😎
“the sky’s the limit”
🤣🤣
I would say it’s definitely the theme….
💕Music of my youth! 💕

Joyful, innocent, simpler times……💕🇺🇲🙏
We all wish for those I think, Lori. 💕 If only we’d known then how truly precious those times were.
Hindsight is always 20/20.

🙂 Met them backstage after a concert. Nice guys. 🙂
😁😁
loved the Byrds in ’65 … had their 1st couple albums and their singles were on the jukebox where my Dad bartended
🙂
Morning, Garrison💕 I was a sophomore at UT. And yes, I’ve totted it up…52 years ago. Half a century plus! When I think of it that way…yikes!
Mornin’ Bet 🙂 And we lived on the same street. I was in the crumbling old victorian at the end of the block and you were in the far more spiffy “Tri-Towers” apts in the middle. We probably passed each other coming and going.
Incredible!! Two ships that passed in the night (and day) without knowing our paths would cross in later life.
PS…I may have lived there but I was never “of” there. I was just a naive Lubbock girl, a fish out of water in every respect at UT. Always felt out of place throughout my four years. Too bad we never met, Garrison. I think we’d have been good friends long before we became good friends now🤗💕
Mornin, Besty❣️
Met my favorite sister in law (the bestest ever) when we were both eleven; only, neither of us knew it
until -drum roll-
the second to our last phone conversation before she passed on.
All of the sudden, I had a very vivid memory of her and of speaking with her briefly.
Who knew….
With well over twenty years of being in-laws; and the very best of friends, we’d met so long ago, but didn’t know; yet, came to know just before her leaving.
-goosebumps /Holy Spirit
Once again great choices, Garrison… takes many of us way back through the decades… to a different time in our lives and our country
The music becomes a personal ‘way-back’ machine, benzy. 🙂
Morning Garrison!
Mornin’ Gramps 🙂

Hi Patience! ❤️
It’s still late here… a little synthwave for the X among us..
suspended in the air, right?
good thing it’s tethered
I would love to swim that…

Amazing!

6/27/2023 – God will set us in safety, and shut us in, before the end comes
Genesis 6:22-7:1 “Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he. And the LORD said to Noah, Come, you and all your house into the ark; for you have I seen righteous before Me in this generation.”
Genesis 19:14-15 “And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law. And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take your wife, and your two daughters *which are here (which are found); lest you be consumed in the *iniquity (perversity, moral evil [and so, its punishment]) of the city.”
Noah was one hundred years building the ark, and walking with God perfect in his generations; and no one regarded or cared at all for it. Lot also was a righteous man dwelling among the wicked; having come to sojourn among them: but in the end, what all was in their hearts came out: pride and indifference, blinded in their lechery and madness, they answered, This fellow came in to sojourn among us; and now will he be a judge? The ungodly sons in law also, who were doing whatever in the neighborhood, while their wives were left at home; were so dense and alienated from reality, the godly warning seems like mockery, and they stay where they are; not having any idea, that this is the last night, and in the morning fire and brimstone from the LORD out of heaven shall destroy all in a moment.
One day, Noah was finished with the ark; and it was the last day for the world of the beginning. One evening, two angels came into the city of Sodom to fetch Lot and his family, and to put them in safety before they destroyed the sinners. Nobody knew, even the very night before, what was coming in the morning; except the saints; the saints who no one thought anything worth to listen to or take seriously.
Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter in through the narrow gate; because wide the gate and broad the way that leads to destruction, and many are they who enter through it; because narrow the gate and *straitened (crowded – pressed closely together, placed under constant pressure, forced, pushed, thronged, under tribulation, troubled) the way that leads to life, and few are they who find it.”
The thing that the devil used the most, to keep me bound in my sins, and to keep me from repenting and completely turning to the Lord Jesus Christ to be saved; was the deceitful pull, and argument, of having to give up my family and friends, and turn my back on the world. It was not anything about Jesus’ words, or the doctrine of the cross, and quitting sinning; for all these are indisputable truth.
But it was knowing exactly what it means to repent, that I balked at; and through indecision was almost completely incapacitated socially: until God in His great pity (whether it was the Lord Himself, or His angel, I do not know) brought an audible voice, which said to me, “You are not fit for the Presence of God.” With the hearing of that voice, and understanding perfectly the meaning of those words; it was at that moment that I was completely decided and determined to repent, and forsake all, and come follow Jesus. In the very moment that the voice came, I was instantly freed from every intoxicant’s effect, and was perfectly sober, and clear in my mind; exactly coinciding with my hearing with understanding, and being ‘pushed off the fence’ God made it instantly clear, that NOW IS THE TIME! and no longer after this!
What followed was exactly as it had been showed me before, with regards to family and friends: the hatred and contempt, the hostility and cruel words, were relentless; trying to bully and shame me into abandoning this wild-eyed fanaticism, and come back and be their brother and son and friend like before. The Lord had shown me up front, what I should expect to encounter, because of His Name; but now the difference was, that which the devil tried to use to accuse and condemn me, to keep me in my sins, and away from Jesus, was all clear in the Light. The comfort and assurance that God gave through His Spirit, for obeying Him and repenting and forsaking all to follow Him; there was no contest for the devil’s anger and hatred and cruel accusations and lies; trying to bully and intimidate me, or make me feel guilty for repenting and believing in Jesus, and turning my back on the world.
We all have our own unique story how we get saved; but there is one unchangeable truth that runs common throughout. Jesus saves us from our sins, calls us out from the world, severs us from other people that we should be His, and gives His Spirit into our hearts, to give us understanding and help us prepare to meet our God. If any of these things are wanting, then it can only be, that the experience was spurious; and they have fallen prey to another spirit, another Jesus, and another gospel, than that which is of God. When that is indeed the case, and the matter is known, the appropriate steps must be taken to make it right, and ensure that the salvation and grace is really wrought of God, and we are from now on walking in truth, according to the Scriptures, and by the Spirit and grace of God.
So while our family and friends, neighbors, co-workers, and countrymen, all appear to be still back there where we left them, when we became a Christian; and the last evening before the final morning arises; when we will have done all that God commanded, and the ark is finished: when we will have made our last attempt to beg our loved ones to depart from the city of destruction and save themselves: even while they will not know until its too late; God will set us in safety, and shut us in, before He ends it all.
“You are not fit for the Presence of God.”
I guess I had a similar “experience” many many years ago – except in my case I dreamed I was in a sort of room, and a man came in with what seemed like an entourage, however I couldn’t really see or “recognize” any of them. The “man” who to me I instantly felt was Jesus, filled me with the most overwhelming sense and feeling of love, BUT, DID NOT as I was expecting and WANTING, seem to even see or acknowledge me. I felt the most terrible feeling of bewilderment – WHY???. This dream wore on me for many years as I knew it meant I was still very far and was most certainly not ready to be “greeted”. I’d like to think things have changed somewhat these days, and we’d get into some good old back slapping and hugging.
Unless someone has a similar heavenly experience, it isn’t something that can be defined or explained in the exact way it affects the one having it. I remember when that happened to me; I was with a couple of “friends” driving around town. The music was on, and we had all been . . . As I said, in the very moment that I heard the words, the music was stopped, and I was straight, and knew exactly what the words were for. The very next instant after, I said to my two friends, Did you hear that? Of course the radio was still on, and they were still stoned; and I don’t think they even heard me ask them; so of course, I understood, that they hadn’t heard a thing. God wanted me to hear, and not them.
What did you do about the terrible feeling of being not acknowledged and bewildered? I can see how that would shake me up for a long time also. The feeling I got when I had my experience, was that, No way am I gonna mess this up! and that this was the last chance.
“What did you do about the terrible feeling……” Well, at the time I was still drinking pretty heavily, and believed that on the whole life sucked, despite the fact that in most aspects and in comparison I was doing sorta OK (completely blind of course)So I probably went from “this is a message” to “well if even He doesn’t want to acknowledge me” I’m as good as gone anyway – let’s pour another one. In His mercy (and it was/is) He sent me a “small” stroke followed by heart attack a year later. I DID get the message, and so began the slow climb back (both physically and spiritually) to what is undoubtedly the truth and light. In short I guess I learned that just “believing in”, and not doing anything serious like killing somebody, was good enough – in fact wasn’t. There was an obligation on my part to establish a connection, to learn what His instructions were, and to try my best to follow them. This as everyone here knows is a process, not easy, and requires more giving than receiving.
Dear Oldspeak, I am so sorry about your health issues. How are you these days? Are you getting around well? I will pray for you.
I do understand the “pity-party” thing; even though we both know, that’s no excuse; as it is said, It takes one to know one! The way it sounds; I mean the way I read what you write; you’re not quite sure yet as you wish you could be, about your acceptance from Him, and salvation? Is it the remorse and self reproach from the past things you did? or have you not yet made the decision to repent and come all the way? It sounds to me; (but you’ll have to say;) that you are very much sorry for the past, and do sincerely repent; but don’t yet have that feeling of having been forgiven and accepted. This is not uncommon; but I believe there are positive things you can do to remedy this. And really, its not something you have to send overseas, or into the heavens to bring to you; but “the word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart, that you may keep it, and do it.” What does that mean? It means, “According to your faith, be it unto you!” “Only believe, and you shall see the glory of God.” “ALL THINGS, Whatsoever you ask in prayer, believing that you have received it, you shall have.” Let nothing be kept hidden in the dark; bring all out into the Light of God’s face; and take His side against the sin, and repent. “Confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead; and you shall be saved.” Then, if you haven’t already, be baptized in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; and you will be a New Creation. Then feed on the word of God, and do all that He teaches you. When you have your daily Bible study; keep a notebook, and write down what you see, and memorize pertinent verses and passages, fitting to your needs, trials and temptations. The word of God is all powerful, and is Spirit and life. And while our past will often haunt us in our thoughts and dreams; we are New Creations in Christ; old things ARE passed away, and ALL things have become new. The old man with his deeds, and all his bondage and darkness, is dead! It was crucified with Christ on the cross, and has been judged and condemned, and has no more power over you. Let the recollections of past evil scenes in your former life be what they’re good for; which is to make us loathe ourselves, and all the more cling to Jesus; who has promised to keep us and be with us to the end; and that He will not let us perish if we abide in Him.
All my love and prayers and best wishes! Pray for me too. The Lord be with you, and guide you always in peace and victory.
Amen.
Hi Poyeema 🙂
Florida man … at it again
Famous last words Florida fisherman bitten by shark, pulled overboard in the Everglades: ‘Ah, two seconds won’t do anything’
Pops wants to vacation in Florida.. He claims the Caribbean waters are the clearest he’s ever seen.. I usually respond with…. the best for sharks to see you and eat you my friend.. I’m a strong swimmer but I don’t plan to compete with sharks.. unless I’ve got a 12ft sword and an island near by to escape to..
the clear waters and sand banks and reefs are very beautiful
you can get a good look at them with a drive south from Miami just into the northern part of the Keys
was there in ’65 and family took a day trip, down a couple keys and back; you see plenty of the beautiful blue water and white sands from the highway bridges
August 65’..I spent 3 days sailing around that upper Key Largo area .. diving for Florida Lobster.. my honeymoon 🤣👍..brought steaks and drinks to go with lobster.. best trip of my life ..😂👍..

Moma says: “Stupid is as Stupid does”.
Jesus is the Truth
Jim Caviezel’s new movie is a true story about child trafficking, and rescuing children.
Armor of God
Isaiah 59: 14-21:
Justice is turned back,
And righteousness stands afar off;
For truth is fallen in the street,
And equity cannot enter.
So truth fails,
And he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.
Then the Lord saw it, and it displeased Him
That there was no justice.
He saw that there was no man,
And wondered that there was no intercessor;
Therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.
For He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal as a cloak.
According to their deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.
So shall they fear
The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in like a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.
“The Redeemer will come to Zion,
And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob,”
Says the Lord.
“As for Me,” says the Lord, “this is My covenant with them: My Spirit who is upon you, and My words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart from your mouth, nor from the mouth of your descendants, nor from the mouth of your descendants’ descendants,” says the Lord, “from this time and forevermore.”
Yes, Betsy, there is no compromise with the devil.
These are such perilous times.
God bless all those on every front who are speaking out.
🙏💕🇺🇲
Good morning dear Bet! Isaiah 5:20 has been sounding in my head since yesterday. A father and a so who I know were sentenced for the “crime” of being in DC on Jan. 6. Both Christian men, all around good guys. The father got 2 years, son got 3 for having his skateboard which was called a deadly weapon. The judge has said that anyone appearing before her is going to jail. I picture her with horns and riding a broom.
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”
Morning, my dear brother💕
My stomach turned when I read what you wrote. I had a rant last night on one of the threads. I would have thought hearing any judge say that would be grounds for appeal. But it costs money to do it. This breaks my heart. satan has collected a lot of souls all right, including apparently everyone in DC. And I mean everyone.
The only thing that comes into my mind is that we will have to wait on the Lord who sees everything.🙏🏻
I think they didn’t get a good legal representation. They were forced/or advised (not sure which) to plea and hope for the judge to show mercy. No mercy given. The family has had to sell their house. Not sure what the mom will do with the rest of the children. They have adopted several kids with special needs. Our pastor wrote a letter to the judge to no avail.
But God… Both are praising him for the opportunity to minister. And I m thinking of Joseph. ❤️😍
“And he who departs from evil makes himself makes himself a prey.”
An apt description of our time. 🙏💕🇺🇲💕🙏
💕🙏One of my all time favorites. I recite this almost daily. I keep a copy at work.🛡️🪖🗡️

Good morning all! We finally got a good rain here at my Indiana home last night. Steve and I have been holding off mowing because the grass is under stress and we don’t want to be looking out at brown patches. I will check it today and if I decide to mow I will raise my cut height from 2.5″ to 2.75″.
Put my good flags back up yesterday morning.
Convective outlook brings the potential back to the central US with an area along the Oklahoma and Kansas border having an enhanced potential for severe weather.
The remnants of Cindy still shown as an invest in the Atlantic. As promised a few days ago, there is development going on in the Eastern Pacific. The remnants of Bret has crossed over central America and may well develop into a named storm again. That name is likely to be Beatriz! A male name in the Caribbean to a female name in the Eastern Pacific. Would that make Bret a transcyclone?
The European model is showing the high sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic cooling quite a bit over the next couple of weeks. Wish they would show them cooling in the Gulf of Mexico more because my personal guess, based on nothing but hints from Joe Bastardi is that is where the next serious tropical storm action is going to happen.
On the climate wars front, here CNN “reports” that up to 2/3rds of the US could see blackouts in the event of extreme heat. You will notice how they talk around WHY that might be? Just a sentence on retirement of fossil fuel stations with no reason given as to why such perfectly good and functional facilities have been shut down. They’re so pathetic.
Extreme heat means two-thirds of North America could suffer blackouts this summer (msn.com)
Sorry rah….found in the bin. 🙁
“ transcyclone?”

Mod my weather and climate post went into the bin. Help please?

Thanks so much! Your the best!
Good for you, Ad rem! We love the “night shift”, while the rest of the real world despises us….!

Mornin’ Ad rem . . . 🙂
Here’s what I sense may happen. A grand deal to re-set America. End the war between left and right by granting full pardons to both Biden and Trump. End all divisive trials. Let the people have their say in ’24. Would you like such a deal?
First, I don’t think there’s a snowballs chance in hell of that happening. Second, you can’t trust politicians. Third, the big cheat to try and steal the 2024 election is certain to happen. There’s trillions at stake! As Sundance likes to say.
Best wishes for reconciliation and forgiveness; just too sad it will never happen. People make choices throughout their lives, and eventually God lets them have what they want; and all the consequences.
What a bargain, ‘Your innocents will be set free in exchange for setting our crooks free. And it will never happen again, we promise.’
Who is offering this deal? P.T. Barnum?
Hard to imagine the left wanting to end divisive trials – they’ve spent the last decade and a half (since 2008) reviving the spectre of racism that the 1960’s and 1970’s spent life and blood on eradicating through the works of men such as Dr. Martin Luther King all so that the Left can stop the unity that was starting to emerge in the 2000’s;
they helped to finance the Antifas and BLM armies of the world, paint race every chance they can get as the “real” motive behind any and all crimes, even now encouraging citizens to tear down statues of old civil war generals whom the era of reconstruction fostered with the idea doing so could put an end of all to divisiveness that civil war brought to the surface.
Uniting people is the last thing these enemies of our United states want.
Say what!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Full pardon to President Trump???????????? President Trump’s supposed crimes were all a crock! He is not guilty of any wrong doing unless you’re from the uniparty, the WEF and the NWO and him wanting to MAGA is the crime!
You can’t make a deal with the devil. Been proven time and again.
THE OVERSHADOWING PERSONAL DELIVERANCE
“I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord.” Jeremiah i. 8
God promised Jeremiah that He would deliver him personally – “Thy life will I give unto thee for a prey.” That is all God promises His children. Wherever God sends us, He will guard our lives. Our personal property and possessions are a matter of indifference, we have to sit loosely to all those things; if we do not, there will be panic and heartbreak and distress. That is the inwardness of the overshadowing of personal deliverance.
The Sermon on the Mount indicates that when we are on Jesus Christ’s errands, there is no time to stand up for ourselves. Jesus says, in effect, Do not be bothered with whether you are being justly dealt with or not. To look for justice is a sign of deflection from devotion to Him. Never look for justice in this world, but never cease to give it. If we look for justice, we will begin to grouse and to indulge in the discontent of self-pity – Why should I be treated like this? If we are devoted to Jesus Christ we have nothing to do with what we meet, whether it is just or unjust. Jesus says – Go steadily on with what I have told you to do and I will guard your life. If you try to guard it yourself, you remove yourself from My deliverance. The most devout among us become atheistic in this connection; we do not believe God, we enthrone common sense and tack the name of God on to it. We do lean to our own understanding, instead of trusting God with all our hearts.

Very nice message, Thank you. You inspired me to look this up. 🙂
Patience –
If you have patience, you are able to stay calm and not get annoyed, for example when something takes a long time, or when someone is not doing what you want them to do.
Tolerant and even-tempered perseverance, the capacity for calmly enduring pain, trying situations, etc, (obsolete – permission; sufferance), Word origin = [via] Old French from Latin patientia/endurance, from patī to suffer
– Collins Dictionary
Ecclesiastes 7:8 “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: and the patient (long, slow) in spirit is better than the proud (high) in spirit.”
Patient in this text can also be translated, “Long-Spirited” as in slow to anger.
Proud implies “high” as in high looks and high minded.
– Strong’s Concordance Hebrew/Greek Lexicon
Good morning Michael!
Sorrow…goes hand in hand with Patience. A man, who has seen and experienced many sorrows, will be patient with those that are still trying to find their way.
Peace and Blessings for your day! 🙏
How true! Yeah; and sometimes it takes a long time for old hurts, and old ways of dealing with them (or not), to be dealt with. We have to be sensitive to others’ feelings, and learn how to say things.
Thankful of epiphany during a ‘trial’. Unbelievable illegal business actions/lies/physical violence aimed at me. No matter their evil, I would not be hammered to a tree.
More amazing, recompense greater than their evil, sent from God in real time, after a tearful prayer.
Can’t make this up. Would not believe anyone telling me same story; excepting it’s mine.
God is good.
Good morning Poyeema! 🤗
What a positive post of God’s Grace and Mercy to His children. I too have had my Haman experience. Each of us has to go thru the fire to understand the powerful Grace of God. To tell the story, will make no one else a believer. It’s definitely on a personal level in our spirit lives.
Peace and Blessings for your day! 🙏
Fair morn, sis. Take it slow, stay cool, this too shall pass….😘🌻☀
Thank you sis…thinking of you guys down in Texas…whew…🔥
Grace in abundance for you and Chris today!!! 🙏💝
Thank you, dear friend💕
Wife and I prayed over this this morning. Second reference connects to Betsy’s post in II Cor 5:16 onward. My personal internalization, “no matter the circumstances are you showing Jesus to others by being sweet, gentle, tender, loving, and kind in the midst?”
My being angry, unyielding, judgmental, and hard gets in the way of God’s desire to deliver me in the midst.
Good afternoon Robb!!! So glad to see your post! 🤗
I do believe that our Father is drawing each of us closer to Him…because He knows we will need Him in a desperate way…and our relationship will count if our lamps are filled with oil! Peace and Blessings for you and your wife!

Good morning
honestly, looks like da Vinci used the same model for John the Baptist and Mona Lisa. A mirror.
Brother and sister maybe !!! ☺☺☺
I see it too Jim
☘🍀☘
True, and John the Baptist doesn’t look much like “the wild man” that he is described in the Bible.
Yup, saw that in John and Mona.
2 Kings, chapter 21, describes the reign of Manasseh over the kingdom of Judah and how the evil of Manasseh’s doings caused God our Father to foretell, in this chapter, the destruction of Jerusalem. The apostasy, rebellion & wickedness of Manasseh’s leadership resembles the immorality and atrocity of today’s spiritual and secular leaders.
Matthew Henry comments:
https://www.blueletterbible.org/Comm/mhc/2Ki/2Ki_021.cfm?a=334001
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. – Psalm 51:10
Change is not usually easy. When a person is used to doing things a certain way, sometimes it is difficult and uncomfortable to switch. But with God all things are possible (Mark 10:27). He can clean a contaminated heart (Isaiah 1:18) and soften a hard one (Ezekiel 11:19). He can renew a dejected spirit and give that person joy instead (Psalm 34:18). He can redeem souls on the way to destruction and give them citizenship in heaven (Philippians 3:20).
God’s change is holy and glorious.
Do you or your loved ones face deep problems, ones for which you cannot seem to find a solution? Do not give up. God loves you, hears you, and answers your prayers. He is able to bring about that change. Be faithful in prayer and respond obediently to the Holy Spirit and His Word’s guidance. Ask the Lord to increase your faith and vision for His will for your life and to help you be willing to make the changes that are not easy.
Ask the Lord to open your eyes and the eyes of this country’s governing officials and citizens to what God wants to accomplish in this country. Pray for hearts to soften to the Word of God. Ask that those in positions of authority would seek the Lord’s direction for their decisions and that citizens would value and act on their right to vote. Pray that God will make the changes needed in this nation.

Who shall he able to stand? Rev. 6:17
Who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap. Mal. 3:2
I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands. These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb, which is in the midst of the throne, shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. Rev. 7:9, 14-17
There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Rom. 8:1

Let Him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; and he shall make peace with me. Isa. 27:5
Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace. Job 22:21

LOL…yes, I get some breathers on Tuesdays and gives me a chance to peek in…😉😊
Verse of the Day for Tuesday, June 27, 2023
✟
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Matthew 18:20 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
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.

VENGEANCE AND VINDICATION ARE COMING
JULIE GREEN MINISTRIES
https://rumble.com/v2wm53o-vengeance-and-vindication-are-coming.html
Dedicated to Julie Green
THE PROPHETS
Prophets are humans who speak through God
Some see visions while others are awed
By what God reveals to them they must share
Backed by scripture and the Spirit through prayer
The Bible mentions of false prophets beware
They claim to speak through God unaware
Their god is not our God by any measure
Their words are a disproven endeavor
Take Elisha and the prophets of Baal
Numerous seers whose incantations fail
If what the prophet claims does come true
God’s gift rests on that person a sure clue
Prophecies have no timeline – that is of God
It is His determination that gives them laud
They contain warnings and past revelation
What has occurred prior is their elevation
The Bible names many both major and minor
Some of them are prominent and the finer
But all have one thing fairly in common
What they say will be fulfilled phenomenon
The ungodly will fail and fall short in time
Their deception will be revealed as slime
Without proof the prophecy as revealed
Will serve no purpose and have no yield
The messages from God come in many forms
Dreams poetry sermons physical norms
Prophets can speak of past present and future
Intertwined together enjoined by suture
Prophecy is judgement and restoration
Of people and nations and of causation
Not always direct or clear of happening
Ordered by events and loose fastening
Discernment is key to unveiling truth
Does not require a seer or a sleuth
The proof lies solely in the fulfillment
Drop by drop with Almighty instillment

Top of the evening to you, Mo.
Anyone ever watch the series Gormenghast? The Books are etched into my mind as a kid seeing them in the fantasy section of a really cute little house that was converted into a book store at the outskirts of my town center. You would walk up a staircase to the upper level where the Fantasy books were located and I remember looking at the Mervyn Peake books because of the unusual artwork on the covers. They are supposed to be very unique, but I never got around to reading them.
Good morning, Colkitto. I will certainly investigate these for the crew. Thank you, my friend.
(I think I spy with my little eye the superb late actor Ian Richardson in the lower left corner. What a marvelous actor he was.)
Sorry… lower RIGHT.
Need more coffee!
I think it may be a bit more for adults. It’s Gothic set in a musty old decaying castle and its inhabitants. My fond memories of that torn down house bookstore are etched in my mind along with those three books.
It’s considered by some to be a great book series and truly unique. My heart is more in Middle-Earth, Gwynedd, and Pyrdain.
I thought what you posted looked a bit older. I know Gwynedd, the county of at least which is no more (double “ds” have a “th” sound in Welsh, but I’m assuming you knew that). I’m going to have to see if we can get this movie. It looks like my cup of tea.👍🏻
That bookstore was a magical place for a young Colkitto. I’ve haunted libraries and bookstores throughout my life, usually on rainy or hot days when I cannot watch wildlife.
My Gwynedd is an alternate Universe. Here was one of my favorite books for older teenagers and adults
I was pleasantly shocked to see it made it to audio book. With the recent interest in Vikings this book is a rework of the old Icelandic Sagas. I’ve read it many times over the years. Not for children. But if you like Vikings and Elves the Norse mythology, this is a great book.

Shared and got this back…Colkitto
Gormenghast is an ancient city-state which primarily consists of a rambling and crumbling castle. The narrative, based on the first two of the three Gormenghast novels by Mervyn Peake, begins with the birth of a son, Titus, to the 76th Earl, Sepulchrave Groan, and Countess Gertrude. This mismatched pair (he’d prefer the melancholy privacy of his library; she’d prefer the company of her menagerie of cats and birds) also have a teenaged daughter, Fuchsia, who resents her new brother but comes to love him dearly. Simultaneously, a young kitchen apprentice, Steerpike, takes advantage of an altercation between head cook Swelter and the Earl’s manservant, Mr. Flay, and escapes from the kitchens. Gormenghast is rigidly feudal in structure, but Steerpike has ambitions. He befriends the imaginative, yearning Fuchsia, and through her becomes apprenticed to the castle physician, Dr. Prunesquallor, who lives with his man-hunting sister Irma. This position allows Steerpike to work his way into the favour of the Earl’s discontented twin sisters, Cora and Clarice, who feel displaced by Gertrude. The Earl’s library mysteriously burns during a family gathering there, and subsequently the Earl goes fatally mad, and Steerpike gains a position with the castle’s Master of Ritual. As Titus grows into childhood then adolescence, he chafes at the restrictions of Gormenghast’s ritual-bound way of life and seeks ways of escape. He grows to resent and despise the ever-more ambitious Steerpike, who is gradually pursuing Titus’s beloved sister Fuchsia. When Steerpike becomes Master of Ritual himself (although he’s scarred for life in the fire that kills his predecessor), Titus decides he’s had enough. But significant acts of treachery, which he discovers with the help of faithful Mr. Flay and the doctor (whose sister meanwhile has snagged the Gormenghast schoolmaster), force Titus’s hand, and Steerpike must run, and fight, for his life, over the rooftops of a Gormenghast flooded by torrential rains.”
A very positive and uplifting song.

When I moved to Texas in the early 1980s (from the NE), i was surprised how friendly and kind folks seemed to be in their daily routines…….holding doors open, saying thank yous, prayers before eating, etc.
What struck me most was hearing “have a blessed day”. From strangers. A nice way of saying thank you and good bye. In all my years in the NE I never heard this before. But here in Texas it was routine. Now 40+ years later, I still hear it and still smile and return the good will when I do. I seem to hear it less and less. Sadly.
I think we need more of “have a blessed day” salutations in our daily lives. Especially with strangers.
Just a thought.
Have a blessed day.
One of this first things I taught my three grands nearest to me was to say this to everyone they meet in their day. And I told them that they must mean it, looking at whoever they say it to in the eye, with a smile not only on their lips but from within…with their eyes. And especially to those who might cross their paths only once.
What you suggest, UC, is beautiful. One never knows when such a heartfelt wish might just make the world of difference to someone who needs to hear it. I am with you, dear sir!🙏🏻💕
I’m going to make sure from now on to really change my answer on that. I now see how important your reply is.
TY
Hmmm…nobody even smiles where I live –
let alone greet others affirmatively – 🙁
I send my Verse of the Day plus prayers
from here daily to my distribution list –
Last Line…
HAVE A BLESSED DAY !!! 😃 ❤️
In Germany, walking in the mountains in Bavaria or Austria the greeting was grüß Gott. An idiom for God is Great or God be with you depending on who you ask!
I was an Army wife in Bavaria for 2 years, Erlanger, Darmstadt, Nuremberg region. Saying Gruss Gott meant much more than the Guten Tag said up in the Mainz, Wiesbaden area where I was for 4 years. We lived on the economy which was great, so much fun.
Despite rather intense urbanization in the cities, my impression is that Texas remains a remarkably friendly sort of place. I still hear “have a blessed day” often at my favorite city-central restaurants, although not quite as frequently as in earlier years. Drive outside the big cities into “Little Town Texas” villages and the infectious friendliness and almost unconscious politeness still exists.
Have a blessed day, indeed, friend.
Same here in Mississippi and even in Memphis. It’s great. After years in San Diego and Phoenix where people are too busy or too self-centered to speak in passing the offering and receiving of blessings is refreshing and makes the heart happy.
Have a blessed day.

A lady was driving down a country road when she suddenly hit a squirrel.She slammed the brakes and ran back to where the poor critter lay. Frantically looking around, she saw a veterinary office across the road. She scooped up the squirrel and ran inside, where she found a crusty old veterinarian sitting in a plush old chair reading a newspaper and looking mildly disturbed by her sudden entry. She said, “Sir, can you help me? I seem to have hit this squirrel with my car, and now I don’t know what to do.” With barely a glance in her direction, the crusty old vet said, “He’s dead. That’ll be $30 for the office visit.” The lady was a little taken aback, and said “How can you say that he’s dead from all the way over there, without even looking at him? And the nerve, to charge me for an office visit, at that!” The old vet got up and wordlessly took the squirrel, and laid it on an exam table. Then he left the room, and returned with a mangy old cat that was probably as old as he was. He placed the cat on the exam table by the squirrel. The cat sniffed the squirrel from nose to tail; then let out a forlorn single “meow”, jumped off the table and left. The old vet nodded a couple of times, then left the room again, this time returning with an old Labrador retriever. He lead the dog over to the exam table, and the dog started licking the squirrel up one side and down the other. Finally the dog let out a forlorn “woof”, and walked away. The old vet looked at the lady and said “I’m sorry ma’am, we did all we could do but he didn’t make it; he’s dead. That’ll be $500.” The lady was becoming apoplectic at this point and could barely control her rage. “How can you charge me $500 for THAT?!” “Well,” said the old vet, “it’s $250 for the cat scan and another $250 for the Lab work.”
