Veteran's

Veteran's Day here in the good ole USA is rapidly coming on us.  This is a time when we honor our military personnel who have served our Nation wearing the uniform of this Nation with pride. This is a special day for me.  After all I have journeyed through many years of my life wearing uniforms worn by our military for the last 4 decades.  In other words I served in our military throughout a significant chunk of our nation's entire history. How old is the USA again????

Why?  Why would a man give up so much time and space to do such a thing?  I was not a combatant, but I experienced and saw some awfully horrific stuff.  AND no one knows really what I did besides the public persona.

Well I will tell you why?  This nation has a document that says something like this.  "We are endowed by our Creator by certain unalienable rights.... Life... Liberty... AND the pursuit of happiness."  NO other nation has such a document.  Everything about this document smacks of super naturalness.  Historical revisionists try to deny how Christ Followers have had such a huge influence on the forming of this nation, but it makes little difference to me. 

 I made a promise at 19 years of age to my God that I repeated time and time again.  I promised to uphold The Constitution of The United States of America and defend it against ALL enemies... foreign and domestic.  I make this promise today.  I do this because I am a Veteran of The Armed Forces of The United States of America.  I want my wife, children and grandchildren to know that they have freedoms that are unimaginable today in other nations.  Because of this document and because of the willingness of women and men who carried a red, white and blue flag... because of these who sacrificed more than most... we are free!

Please say THANK YOU this week to one of our Veterans.  Go to a parade.  Attend an event.  Shake a hand... BE appreciative.  It is really surprising how these women and men feel when someone says to them.. Thank you.

       Go be blessed 2day... Especially 2day.

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
