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 †

This is our customary Treeper Church Sunday benediction. We post it here as a way of inviting our friends and visitors to experience the soulful experience of solace. This is intentionally a quiet place. We hope the presence of Our Lord will inspire a little faith. Our Lord loves us and want’s us to be a part of His Family. All it takes to do this is our personal acceptance of Him. Do this and you are in . . .
Good Sonday morning, Garrison!

Israel Update:
It’s a tough one to watch. The video below is the subject of the update.
Evyatar David is a hostage from the Nova festival. He has been in Gaza some 667 days. Hamas just issued a video. I normally wouldn’t post a Hamas Propaganda but the family approved it and some Propoganda frames that were edited into it were removed. I am alerting you that it is hard to watch!
It was reported that Trump watched it and had tears and rage. He wants Hamas destroyed after a deal if there is one. The pressure is to make them surrender their weapons and leave. This is not going to happen. Witkoff and Trump need to stop being a buddies of Qatar and demand extradition of all Hamas leaders who live there or let Mossad take care of it. They sit there and prevent any deals and talk like big bosses, those criminals.
And if you think that this is a bad video, believe it or not they also released another video with another hostage that is even worse than this. The second hostage who is known to be a cheerful person who never cries is crying on and on and looks like a skeleton. A complete broken man. It hurts. I didn’t post the second video, it’s too harsh on me to translate it. They both look like from the Nazi Concentration Camps. They got Israel quite into shock in the past couple of days. They eco things from Nazi Europe.
And no, I haven’t seen any front page NYT about it or any significant coverage.
In my opinion this is going to backfire. They thought that it will bring Israel to an internal fight and it does create pressure but it also enraged Trump and this is not going to pass.
See also the other videos. The one with Omer (another released hostage) i translated and took some work. I don’t think that anyone else translated it.

3. Another hostage speaks out. Very short video.
https://rumble.com/v6x20a8-hostage-testimonial.-a-few-seconds..html
God bless Israel and the USA. God help the hostages.
When you read of people getting weepy about the “plight” of the people in Gaza, the same people who are being shipped millions of tons of food to survive a situation that they once danced in the streets to cheer on, at least that assistance that is not stolen by the outlaws of Hamas first, then view this video and take note that hardly any of that food is going to the hostages – they are being purposefully starved and treated as completely expendable, to be killed when they’ve outlived their usefulness.
There’s no negotiating with animals like this. This is an affront to God and anyone expressing sympathy with such a terrorist regime needs to be condemned.

Everyone is dumping aid. Europe and Arab world. The prices of flour in Gaza dropped in half now.
https://rumble.com/v6wsl5g-israel-drops-aid-at-gaza.-july-2025.html
They should have picked up all the UN or Israel aid that one guy showed mountains of. He said the UN would not let Israel soldiers in to distribute it with weapons and nobody else would distribute it. Hunger all over the world, as it wasted away. I’m sure most was non perishable and could have been dropped in by air. These food agencies are a pyramid scheme and nothing should be distributed without some kind of defensive system in place, seeing as there’s Hamas around. Military canines can sniff out any firearms or explosives.
Yes. There is a risk of having weapons in the packages but I didn’t think that from those nations. If it was Qatar then definitely.
The whole thing started as an effort to give the aid back to the UN because the US company that Israel hired was bypassing the UN and giving millions of meal every couple of days directly to the residents without Hamas stealing it and controlling the market and making money by selling it.

Thanks for your posts, David. Seeing all this is chilling. These people are beasts. What they plan for non Muslims is exactly this—their goal is world conquest. They want to eradicate Israel as their first target in a world wide plan which will ultimately exterminate all non-believers.
I will also comment that these people are culturally primitives—their military conflicts have always failed — even against a small but modern Israeli military, their combined forces have repeatedly failed in open military conflicts (to this day the Negev desert is littered with dead tanks).
So. What is to be done? When Trump toured the Middle East, it was quite clear that that he was universally regarded by Arab rulers as The Boss. The world is waiting for the historic page in this age-old conflict to turn. As with the attack on the Iranian nuke sits, with American backing Israel can literally change the world. It is time to put paid to this crap.
Thank you! ❤️

Exactly how I feel about the lying media. Tucker Carlson even interviewed a former soldier who was in one of the wards in N. Palestine. He was telling his story, no one believed, claimed his own pictures had been cut and pasted, originally a starving child, then with a heavyset man that looked nothing like him. He was very angry about it. Everyone has a narrative but he didn’t indicate if he spoke with the child about his situation. Just that the child reached out his right hand to grab his, then kissed it and said thank you. I know they can’t have toilet paper so which hand do they wipe with again? My take away was did I believe that there is no proper food distribution, yes, but his blame game was off the mark on so many levels.
Tucker is one of the worst haters of Israel. Yes there is a negligible % of ex-soldiers who work with the left to delegitimize Israel. In every group there is a negligible few who would hate it and betray it.
And by the way, if he was a soldier then why isn’t he now? All Israelis are called ro Reserve duty now days. I will not watch this. Tucker is not a serious outlet on Israel. The day that he goes full blast antisemite with Holocaust denying is near. He was already inflamed. The same thing that happened to Candace and Kanye West who is now doing nazi salutes in public.
If you feel that maybe there is something to it and would like me to watch then I will. Let me know. Just don’t post it. I usually avoid spreading Black Propaganda.
This guy that Tucker had is lying. Here is some information.

I believe this Tucker “soldier” interview is of a former Green Beret U.S. soldier (who was working for GHF and was fired or quit and THEN tried to be rehired by GHF; AND when GHF would not rehire him, he began to lie and make up stories about his time working for GHF in Gaza).
I gathered this by NOT having to listen ro Tucker (thank God) but by reading several tweeters, such as @JoelPollak and @A_Ostrov.
🎶🇮🇱🎶 Am Yisrael Chai! 🎶🇮🇱🎶
correction:
@Ostrov_A
According to Tucker the Mossad hired Epstein and is spying on America, Israel is systematically killing Christians, Intentionally killing children. Next he will say that Jews are drinking the blood fo Christians and the Holocaust didn’t have 6 millions killed and the Jews are not really Jews. He is going in the path of Candace and he will not end well. I just don’t know why Israel doesn’t litigate anyone.
Here is more about this man that he had on his show.

We got the gas bill for the house for the month when we lost power 51 hours.
It works out it cost us $58.00 to run the GENERAC and be able to go on and live normally and have everything work.
Steve next door hooked up and ran his gas powered generator that puts out enough to run his sump pump, fridge, deep freeze, well pump, and a few lights and the TV. He used about 15 gallons of gas which cost him about $45.00.
That extra $18.00 was well worth it as far as we’re concerned. Of course there is another expense. I will be paying for a service plan to a GENERAC dealer that will cost $413.00 per year. For that they remotely monitor my unit, do regular service, cover parts and labor for repairs, and give us priority if we have a breakdown during and electrical outage.
But that is an optional expense.
Appreciate all your posts rah .
EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE
Verse of the Day for Sunday, August 3, 2025
✟
“For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.”
Psalms 18:28 (KJV)
COMMENTARY FOR PSALMS 18
“David rejoices in the deliverances God wrought for him. (1-19) He takes the comfort of his integrity, which God had cleared up. (20-28) He gives to God the glory of all his mighty deeds.” (29-50)
(20-28) “Those that forsake the ways of the Lord, depart from their God. But though conscious to ourselves of many a false step, let there not be a wicked departure from our God. David kept his eye upon the rule of God’s commands. Constant care to keep from that sin, whatever it be, which most easily besets us, proves that we are upright before God. Those who show mercy to others, even they need mercy. Those who are faithful to God, shall find him all that to them which he has promised to be. The words of the Lord are pure words, very sure to be depended on, and very sweet to be delighted in. Those who resist God, and walk contrary to him, shall find that he will walk contrary to them, #Le 26:21-24|. The gracious recompence of which David spoke, may generally be expected by those who act from right motives. Hence he speaks comfort to the humble, and terror to the proud; “Thou wilt bring down high looks.” And he speaks encouragement to himself; “Thou wilt light my candle:” thou wilt revive and comfort my sorrowful spirit; thou wilt guide my way, that I may avoid the snares laid for me. Thou wilt light my candle to work by, and give me an opportunity of serving thee. Let those that walk in darkness, and labour under discouragements, take courage; God himself will be a Light to them.”
Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered !!!
WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
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.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
MAPA = MAKE AMERICA PRAY AGAIN
LIGHT OF THE WORLD
Jesus said: Ye are the light of the world
As children of God darkness is unfurled
We walk as children in the light of God
Because He called us out not to be flawed
If we walk in the light as He is in the light
We have fellowship with one another aright
The Blood of the Lamb cleanses all from sin
Darkness cannot exist or live within
Let light shine out of darkness in our hearts
Where knowledge of His Glory light imparts
His Word is a lamp right unto our feet
A light unto our path none can defeat
Let your light shine bright before all others
Show your good works to sisters brothers
All praise to the Heavenly Father of all
That they may give glory both great and small
Then your light shall break forth like the dawn
Your healing shall spring up quickly bygone
Your righteousness shall go well before you
The Glory of God behind you accrue
Your eye is the lamp of your whole body
When the eye is healthy it shines broadly
But when it is not beware you will see
Darkness will envelope encompass thee
Come out of the darkness into the light
Proclaim the excellence of God outright
He who walks in darkness loses his way
But he who walks with God will not stray
D01: 07/30/2023
THE FEAR FACADE
Of what are you fearful – unsure today?
What makes you tremble – what keeps you at bay?
What bothers you – disturbs your peace at night?
What gives you pause – and puts out your light?
It might be unseen – the unknown that shakes;
The out of control – the unbalanced that quakes;
It could be the undeniable belief;
There is nowhere to go – to get some relief!
Your mind is racing – your heart beating fast;
You wonder how long fearfulness will last;
Release me – Oh, Lord – from the grasp of fear;
Come; Calm me – Oh, Lord – Come, quickly near!
What does this fear come stealthily to take?
How does it disturb – in the night keep awake?
What gives it power o’er what you partake?
Why would you give in – why would you forsake?
The hold that fear can have over its prey;
Is the unbelief that faith takes away;
The opposite of fear is truly belief;
And it is our faith that provides the relief!
What happened to Peter when his faith failed?
His footing gave way – in the water he flailed;
What happens to us when of little faith?
We fall prey to a spirit – of haunting wraith!
Fear can be daunting – paralyzing – haunting;
It can cause us to hold back – be less flaunting;
We will definitely hide all our gifts inside;
Where His Spirit is willing and wants to reside!
The love that we have to give will be thwarted;
As we draw into ourselves – love is hoarded;
From the love of God we have truly withdrawn;
From the embrace of another woebegone!
What must we do to eliminate fear?
We must repent and draw His Spirit near;
We must fast – we must pray – the fear away;
For where faith increases – fear cannot stay!

Modern Europe is an open-air museum run by people who hate what’s on display.
They preserve the buildings but erase the meaning. They protect the monuments but mock the faith that built them. They welcome tourists but resent the civilisation they came to see.
Cathedrals are kept for their acoustics. Castles for wedding photos. Traditions are paraded like costumes, stripped of conviction, drained of memory. Europe sells its past like a souvenir — because it has no future to offer.
The curators speak of tolerance, sustainability, innovation — never of sacrifice, duty, or truth. They manage a legacy they didn’t build and can’t defend. And when something still stirs — a bell tolling, a banner raised, a prayer said — they call it dangerous.
This isn’t preservation. It’s embalming.
And one day, the museum will close.
Not because the walls collapsed — but because no one remembered why they were built. It feels like another civilisation
squatting in the ruins of one it doesn’t understand. Like Muslims selling trinkets at the foot of the pyramids — surrounded by greatness, unmoved by it, living off what they could never build.
How very true. Europe is in a post-Christian period that will end in high-tech darkness of the human condition. The current leaders and people have forgotten the Visigoths and Huns destroying the Roman Empire.
As a child, before Vietnam became ‘history’, I remember nightly news detailing how it was a new type of warfare for America to fight. In the jungles, guerrilla warfare. Their excuse for why it was so hard to fight and win, quickly. Because of course we had won WWII, why was this new small thingy so hard ?
“This isn’t preservation. It’s embalming.”
Not to my 1960’s education, from the nightly news. It’s just another type of guerrilla warfare.
“Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!” Psalm 37:7
We got a call from a person from our credit card company.
To make sure it was from our credit card company,
we hung up, and called them directly.
They said that a charge of $5 went through and
they were getting ready to repeat another charge of $5.
We didn’t make the charges and stopped it,
so they wouldn’t rack up more $5 charges.
It was a company from Palo Alto called XAI, LLC.
It could be a person hacking into that company,
but I don’t know.
My husband was looking it up on the internet.
He saw this was happening to a lot of people.
So, I thought I would post this to warn everyone about this scam.
Check your credit card!
so they wouldn’t rack up more $5 charges.
“More $5 charges” aren’t really the main concern
The $5 charge is verification to them that they’ve accessed your account successfully and can make charges or transfers from it
Now that they’re “in”, next goal for them is to clock a few hundreds charges
The $5 charge (or a couple of them) is to confirm that they’ve got a live account and can do it
They closed down our account.
They’re sending us a new credit card.
We did have an episode of having multiple charges of $1-$3 to our credit card.
My husband told the credit card company to send a message when there was a charge over $1. When the message would ding on his phone he would know if he did it or ask me if I made the charge.
One evening my husband was watching sports on TV and looking up things on the computer. All of a sudden Messages started coming across the computer screen. His phone started dinging notifying us of multiple charges ringing up on our credit card.
He called the security number and told the guy charges are being racked up as we speak. Please shut it down.
They stopped the charges, didn’t allow them to go through. Those small 1-3 dollar charges added up to $250-$300!

It’s quiet at the Treehouse so far today, so I think I’ll sneak in this bit of personal angst.

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/08/rip_disparate_outcomes_credentialism_and_the_russian_collusion_hoax.html
People close to me suggested I write about my flying and FAA fun career – but reports about how bad women controllers and pilots are made a mockery of what I did.
This ‘change’ came 5 years after I quit – and (to me) explains a lot.
I wonder how long it will take to correct the problems this insanity caused.

Dear Lord,
As the day gradually transitions into the comforting embrace of night, I humbly come before you, seeking the precious gifts of peace and serenity. Please, dear God, enfold me in your tranquil presence, and help me find respite from the storms that may be raging within my heart and mind. Grant me the serenity to gracefully accept the things I cannot change and the courage to change what I can. May your divine light shine upon me as I seek rest and tranquility, knowing that your unwavering love and guidance are my constant companions.
Amen.
A Powerful Evening Prayer for Strength and Guidance
Dear God,
In these twilight hours, I turn to you, my unwavering source of strength and guidance. As I reflect upon the day’s challenges and triumphs, I seek your divine intervention. Grant me the courage to face the uncertainties of tomorrow and the wisdom to make sound decisions along the way. I earnestly request that your radiant light illuminate my path through the darkness, and may your steadfast strength be my refuge in moments of doubt and weakness. Lord, help me navigate life’s complexities with unwavering faith in your unwavering presence.
Amen.
A Powerful Evening Prayer for Gratitude and Thankfulness
Heavenly Father,
As I pause to contemplate the events of this day, my heart brims with profound gratitude for the countless blessings you have graciously bestowed upon me.

As I lay down to rest, may my heart overflow with thankfulness, recognizing that your grace continually sustains me and that even in the challenges, your love remains unwavering.
Amen.
