“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” – Romans 12:1-2

Good morning all. Been busy.

Hope you all have a great day. Just remember, you never know what you’ll find around the next corner and some things you can never prepare for and have to react on the fly. Stay focused!

Had a bug for a couple days. Stomach flu that hit suddenly and hard. Fully recovered now but set me back a couple days on my objectives.

Yesterday evening my cousins Ryan and Ron came over to assess what they will need to get my on demand generator hooked up. They may get to doing that Saturday they say.

My oldest Granddaughter has gotten into canning so we’ve got homemade Apple Butter and Plum Jelly in the fridge. Really good stuff. I remember my Grandma’s great canned stuff. Pickles and Mincemeat, etc. So I started questioning my cousins about getting her canning recipes. Gotten some of them, including the mincemeat but nobody has found the pickle recipes and which I really would like to find. I can’t describe the flavor of them. They were neither sweet or dill. But I remember we enjoyed them for a year or so after her death until they were gone. Best pickles I ever ate.

Grandma also made the best fudge I ever had and I now have those recipes. So I guarantee I’m going to be trying out the fudge recipe and hopefully get to eat the best mincemeat pie I ever had again. Making the mincemeat is a lot of work.

Yea! Ain’t that something?

Steve Irwin
(1962-2006)

Australian naturalist and TV personality (The Crocodile Hunter), attacked and killed by a stingray at 44

Biography: Nicknamed ‘The Crocodile Hunter’ and star of the internationally broadcast wildlife documentary series of the same name.

I was wrong! Dead wrong!

I know that he is not popular here, for good reasons but this is an important step and appreciated. See the video below.
On the other hand I read today that the Biden’s Administration came up with a “Take it or leave it” last deal proposal.
Israel will withdraw from Gaza completely. All the hostages will be released. Hamas leaders will get guaranties against assassinations.
On the same day a senior Hamas Official (terrorist) is issuing a statement that “The US failed to apply enough pressure on Israel”.
In what world are we living? The leader of the free world (USA) is offering a guaranty for the survival of some of the vilest terrorists who ever existed? The vilest terror organization in the world is telling the USA what to do and how to pressure Israel and dictating to the White House?
I just wanted to highlight the absurdities. In no way did I intended to offend my American brothers and sisters. You don’t need to feel embarrassed. I understand very well the internal dynamics in the US. God help us all and get Trump back to office. It will get worse before better but it will all be over in a reasonable time frame. I am sure.

For tunnel demolition fans. Newly released video

A prayer at Rafah South Gaza. Yesterday.

https://youtube.com/shorts/-sAp6hosWSs?si=OnmJfWB_q7kOqyQm

I don’t know all the details but the translation is : “The explosion is devoted to the six murdered hostages, may they be damned. To eradicate the memory of Amalek”. I suspect that it’s the area where the hostages were murdered.

Translation : “Dedicated to the memory of Adir Tal, a Golani soldier who was brutally murdered, may you memory be blessed.”

https://youtube.com/shorts/wz77kyPpyJM?si=NAHXK7tAmHS09M39

Major demolition . Expanding the Nazarin Corridor. The area that splits North from South Gaza as to enable the IDF to prevent the return of armed terrorists to North Gaza.

A miracle. IED missed the vehicle. Judea and Samaria. (Note that I don’t call it West Bank. It is Judea and Samaria).

Business as usual. Another UNRWA school hosted a terror headquarters. 11 dead terrorists. 19 dead only in Rafah in the past 24 hours. We also dropped a bomb on the head of a guy who was commanding a Hamas team in one of the Kibutz towns on 10/7. We had him on video and he left the earth along with 8 terrorists.

https://youtube.com/shorts/Kkt1I1_davM?si=XWAPT_tjcMZsMNgE

Gaza Division commanders change ceremony.
Done in Gaza to show that we are locating there and not in Israel. For a long run.
Brigadier General Barak Hiram took over. The man took command on the battles on 10/7 and was directing the forces in some of the bloodiest battles. He almost lost his career because in Kibutz Beeri there was a massive hostage situation with some 13 hostages and many many terrorists. A force was preparing to break in and Barak Hiram ordered a tank to fire at the structure. All terrorists and all hostages died. On investigation it was discovered that the tank fired at the roof to create a diversion and the hostages didn’t die as a result of the tank attack. The commander was cleared and actually commanded for how he took initiative and commanded a lot of the units who arrived at multiple locations. He fought himself too . He is originally from the Golani Brigade that is a very respected Infantry Brigade in all of Israel’s wars.

In Judea and Samaria a few wanted Terrorist refused to surrender. The IDF used a D9 Caterpillar bulldozer and collapsed the building on them.
No survivors.
Best way to “clear a building from terrorists”.
We call it the “pressure cooker protocol”. A series of escalating steps that give terrorists a chance to surrender and culminate in taking down the building.

Delight Yourself in the Lord

God wants you to find satisfaction
and joy in your relationship with Him.

We are designed to derive joy and fulfillment
from being in God’s presence.

There is a deeper meaning (and warning) in the parable about the poor widow who gave “everything” as opposed to the “wealthy” who made a big show. We can all understand the logic of the first layer, however the real clue is earlier, in Mark 12:40 “They devour widows’ houses and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will be punished most severely.”. Remember Jesus is talking to a Jewish audience here, where the giving of charity, a Mitzvah, is also a commandment to do good – charity being a biggie. So logic would dictate that the more one gives the greater the “Mitzvah”, and hence the reward – hopefully both here and in the after-life. The study of Torah / The Bible / holy texts is also considered such. Prayer as well. So where does the problem come in?? – many too many of us fall into the trap of being “admired” by the outside world for our “obvious” shows of knowledge, like being able to quote the scriptures backwards. (Believe it or not it has been done), and or great displays of “charity” and/or piousness . The warning and lesson here, is that in doing so we loose our true “inner” connection to the Creator, fall into the trap of thinking and doing – ONLY for the praise and admiration of the outside world. We sever the deeper understanding that the “reward” is in the deed itself. Do we not feel good when we do good from the heart?? We can save a persons life with just a small gesture of kindness (from the heart) – and maybe at that time you yourself may feel that you’re the one giving everything you have – just think how great is the reward of our Father for this – as opposed to the punishment of basically lying to yourself, God and the world, by pretending to be something you’re not. (deep down) At least that’s how I see it today – and that’s the “awe” of the living (Gods) word. The same verse can have a different “meaning” to you each time you read it. It changes with you.

Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted. Isa. 7:4

Be still, and know that I am God. Psa. 46:10

Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? John 11:40

The loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. Isa. 2:17

Mary … sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. Luke 10:39

Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. Luke 10:42

In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength. Isa. 30:15

Commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Psa. 4:4

Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Psa. 37:7

He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. His heart is established. Psa. 112:7, 8

He that believeth shall not make haste. Isa. 28:16

EVENING

What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. John 13:7

Thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. Deut. 8:2

When I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord GOD, and thou becamest mine. Ezek. 16:8

Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth. Heb. 12:6

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1 Pet. 4:12, 13

Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. 2 Cor. 4:17, 18

You shall have no other gods before me.        –   Exodus 20:3

Have you looked at the night skies recently and scanned its stars? Can you still find the North Star? It is bright, shining at the tip of the handle of the Little Dipper, even on a dimly lit night. It is stationary and has been in exactly that same place since God established it there – a reliable fixed point. For thousands of years, seafarers used it to determine their bearings.

Pastor and author Peter John Miller said, “God is that North Star, figuratively. He is our fixed point by which we can judge all issues. How can we have absolute moral standards? God exists, and God has spoken.” And He stated, “I am the Lord, and there is no other” (Isaiah 45:5).  

In June of this year, Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry signed a bill that would require the Ten Commandments to be posted in every school. Almost immediately, nine families filed a lawsuit to keep the law from going into effect, scheduled for November 24. According to NBC News, the families, who are Jewish, Christian, Unitarian Universalist, and nonreligious, said the law “substantially interferes with and burdens” parents’ “First Amendment right to raise their kids in whatever religion they want.” The bottom line is that they are not opposed to teaching, “Thou shall not steal” or “Thou shall not commit murder.”

Their problem is what the Commandments say about God. They want to establish a North Star of their own choosing. 

Theologian Dr. Tony Merida wrote, “Everyone is a worshiper of someone or something. Idolatry is putting someone or something else in the place of God. …

We must see our idols for what they are: they are stupid!

After seeing this, we must crush them in repentance and turn to the living God instead. Idols will not satisfy. Only God will satisfy the human heart.”

Assess the absoluteness of God’s place in your life. With Him as your fixed and reliable North Star, your course is set in the right direction. Pray for the nation’s leaders to set their bearings on the only absolute—Almighty God!

Dogs can remember names of toys years after not seeing them, study shows
Research into canine cognition suggests some pets store object names in long-term memory
3 Sep 2024

https://www.theguardian.com/science/article/2024/sep/04/dogs-remember-names-toys-years-study-pets-memory

Dog owners may have trouble remembering which toy is Mr Squeaky, but such names can be seared into the memory of their pets, researchers have found.

Scientists previously discovered some dogs have a remarkable ability to learn the names of toys, with a border collie known as Chaser having learned the labels of more than 1,000 objects.

Now researchers have discovered some dogs can remember the name of a toy even when they have not seen it for two years.

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.

WARRIOR WEDNESDAY – IN HONOR OF STEVIE

THE PRAYER WARRIOR

In this tumultuous world of war and strife;
What becomes more precious to God than life?
What gives God pleasure in this world of horror?
The valiant effort of the Prayer Warrior!

Who is this enemy we fervently oppose?
Who, in the hearts of the lost, takes up his repose?
Who causes chaos and creates confusion?
Who aborts abstention and composes collusion?

Who is this supernatural enemy?
Against whom we arm ourselves – proactively?
Why do we battle – bravely and boldly?
To defeat this evil – courageously – coldly!

His domain is worldwide – he’s prince of this world;
His objective – keep us unbalanced – unfurled;
Disrupt – distract – dutifully destroy;
Till all of creation comes – under his employ!

Look here – over there – what he has done;
The souls he’s amassed – the battles he’s won;
Take cover – cower – and – be thou afraid;
By no man-made weapon – can he be staid!

Howbeit – can we defeat this one so evil?
By what means can we kill this boll weevil?
What heavenly weapon can be used to curtail;
What methods – ways and means – does it entail?

Lord – we pray – Send Your Warring Angels here;
Armed with swords and shields – let them appear;
We took upon ourselves the whole Armor of God;
With the Helmet of Salvation – we are surely shod!

With our loins girt in Truth – our Breastplate upright;
With the Shield of Faith – Spirit Sword uptight;
With our prayer of supplication firmly engaged;
We get ready for warfare with the evil enraged!

We’ve fasted and prayed and prepared well within;
We plead the precious Blood of Jesus and begin;
The spiritual warfare for which we’ve been called;
Anointed in the Spirit – we’re more than enthralled!

Prayer Warriors are – undaunted and tearless;
We are ready and armed – steadfast and fearless;
Our victory assured – so determined are we;
The demons and devils – they will surely flee!

PROPHETIC WORD:

JGM – A BATTLE IS BREWING IN YOUR WHITE HOUSE – [4 September 2024] 

…God has got you and there is nothing that your enemy is trying to hold you back and keep you down with in your life that’s bigger than God. Satan’s a loser and God always wins…that’s going to change the way you see your circumstances in your life today. 

[Prophetic Word heard – 2 September 2024] 

For I the Lord this day am telling My children to prepare for this battle. This is the time of rapid fire, of increasing attacks and unprecedented events taking place. Your enemies are about to fire shots from all directions and many ways to catch you off-guard and to try to knock you off your feet so you can’t stand and you won’t continue to fight in this upcoming battle which they think YOU will lose. They are convinced they have this country and this world right where they needed it, to be the final kill shot for their ultimate control and takeover of the globe. Something is about to knock THEM off their feet and annihilate all their plans and that is ME says the Lord. These desperate attempts and their desperate decisions will bring their end and solidify how they fall in their disastrous exit from power over the nations. My children arise and take your place in govts, and in powerful positions where I need you to be to overthrow the rogue govts worldwide. Take your positions where I have called you to be. It doesn’t matter how impossible or how long it has taken. It is not impossible for Me. 

I know many have been discouraged because your seats were temporarily stolen and you couldn’t understand why this happened or you were questioning if you should have run for that seat in your government or in your state in the first place. You were not wrong. Your enemy stole in and now they will ultimately pay a high price for those seats. I need you My children, to rely on Me and not a campaign manager or a political advisor. Throw those old ways out and SHOUT MY WORDS.
