Mission: Souls For The Kingdom

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

I hope you have noticed, and missed me, since I haven’t published much content lately.  I had three generic articles scheduled to be released during the week that I spent time in a foreign country doing mission work for my Church.  

Our group of twelve, including my wife and myself, spent nine powerful and encouraging days reaching out to the locals in that country.  It was my first trip to share the Gospel outside the United States.  I absolutely loved it!  It was 🔥preaching and teaching and seeing the lives that were changed with the simplicity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Tiring, exhausting, filled with spiritual battles, but so fulfilling.  The great commission in action.  

Working with local churches we had the opportunity to reach out in homes in pre-arranged appointments to personally share our faith.  We faced many obstacles, however we fought and won many victories.  Seeing the faces that on first contact were questioning and even argumentative completely turned joyful and excited as they accepted Jesus Christ as their saviour.  Praying for a young man in his 30’s to receive Christ who had just recently received a terminal cancer diagnosis shook me to the core.  This young man had to be carried into the house by his brother-in-law. He was so weak.  Whether God heals on this side of death or not, his name is written down in the book of life.  His present may be sickness, but his future is heaven! 🙏❤️

Visiting a feeding program for children and teens in an area of intense drug and prostitution was truly heart breaking. đź’” I realized that the only real life these young kids have come from the generosity of strangers who provide food and a place of safety. This program is the hands and feet of Jesus.  Pulling young girls away from the lure prostitution, and boys from the poison of the drug trade is truly Christlike. Seeing these kids and the joy on their faces as we visited…..brought tears to our eyes.

Jesus told us if you do it unto one of the least of these, you are doing it unto me.  I was truly wrecked by what I experienced.  We did nothing but go, it was all the Spirit of Christ.  I will go again. Realizing that nothing in this world is as important as spreading the Gospel, something I knew, but something that in our hurried world I had allowed to falter.  Preaching and teaching to the Churches in the country, was the most relevant and Christ honoring endeavor I have undertaken in quite some time. No cameras or publicity, just Jesus.  Simple child-like faith in the Jesus of the Bible!  Praise God!

We in America are so blessed.  We have been given such grace and mercy from our Lord, and yet are we truly appreciative of that favor?  We need revival and a great awakening in the United States of America.  Our moral compass is broken. Join me in praying for a move of the Holy Spirit on our world.  Time is running out.  Our world seems to be falling apart, but it is really falling into place according to Bible prophecy.  Blessings, Maranatha!

Effective Fervent Prayer Avails Much: James 5:16 

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

From William Bradford and the Pilgrims to the Founding Fathers, greatness was understood in the context of the blessing of God; our founding documents reflect this.

Can America recover? If our only hope is in cultural reclamation through the political process, our chances are nil. Our national sickness goes much deeper than politics; our problem is spiritual and the only true solution is also spiritual. The People of God must see through our enemy’s curtain and recognize Satan’s ability to work through mortals to achieve his sinister goals. After all, he is the Father of Lies and the Great Deceiver and can distract people with decoys, and counterfeits as a wolf in sheep’s clothing. We must grasp the nature of our enemy and pray accordingly, not being distracted by illusions and paper tigers. Now is not the time to self-censor and cower to the cultural elites, hoping for better days ahead. We are in a spiritual battle and must see ourselves as the Resistance of our day. We adopt no exit plan. We recognize our enemy’s tactics, expose his lies, and proclaim truth. Although Satan masquerades as an angel of light, once exposed, he runs for cover. Truth sets us free so we run toward the battle and not away from it.

Like the Founding Fathers, the People of God must care enough about their homeland to take action. Prayer is our greatest weapon but only effective when it’s utilized. America will outlast all the great civilizations of the past when she falls to her knees in humility and prayer. These are the tactics that will restore our greatness and bring revival.    Author Unknown

Many times I get deep into the weeds (obsessed) with the state of the world and culture. I am a current events guy, but always with a Biblical context. Today is a most important post. James 5:16-17 gives us a prescription for the chaos and unbelief and outright demonic hatred of the world of today. Sincere fervent prayer! God is still in charge, we do not understand, but He is. We though do have a part to play. WE pray, We intercede and declare the Word of God. That is our job. I cannot change any dirty politician’s vote, but God can. I cannot change our culture. But God can. But what I can do is pray. “The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man or woman avails much.

The world is ripe for destruction, but also for revival. People are fearful. Many have no clue what will happen next, but Jesus Christ give me peace regardless. We can make a difference. God has moved on me to pray more this year, and I am. We have access into the very throne room of Almighty God, let’s use that privilege. Hebrew 4:16.

Dictators and Despots – Feckless, anti-Semitic and demonic United Nations

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The U.N. Is the biggest impediment to peace in the world.  Filled with dictators and despot from non-democratic nations and sects they foster hate toward the western democracies, especially the US. They are anti-Semitic and anti democracy.  They have been on the wrong side of history and policy for as long as I can remember.

No only have they sided with every anti democratic nation out there, they have been caught giving aid to Hamas in their attempt to destroy Israel.  Some of their so-called (humanitarian efforts) include financing some teaching programs that instill hate against Israel.

Now they have turned their focus on parents right to home school and educate their children as parents see fit.  The U.N.’s demands include “education standards” for homeschooling, as well as “accountability” to government. The outfit is also demanding mandatory registration, forced “evaluations” of homeschoolers by authorities, compulsory “home visits,” and much more. In fact, the agency is even calling for U.N.-approved values and attitudes to be imposed on children across a wide array of issues, with U.N. control of “education content.”

The new U.N. Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) report on home education, titled “Homeschooling through a human rights lens,” lays out the most draconian global assault on home education in history. The powerful global agency, long dominated by card-carrying communists, claims governments must bring homeschooling under their thumb–for the benefit of the children, of course.

Unsurprisingly, the top U.N. official involved in the push comes from the “Democratic People’s Republic” of Korea (DPRK), better known as North Korea. According to the report’s acknowledgements, it was prepared under the “supervision” of Gwang-Chol Chang, chief of the UNESCO Section of Education Policy.

Before joining the U.N. to help transform education globally, Chang worked for the mass-murdering North Korean Communist regime’s “Education Ministry.” The agency operates among the most comprehensive communist brainwashing systems in human history. And yet, with no sense of the irony, the government controls being demanded by Chang and his minions are said to be necessary to uphold what the global body describes as “international human rights.” Yes, seriously.

Any wonder that the UN officials declare that if Babylon is ever rebuilt, I think it will be, they will move their headquarters there.  Hmnm, makes you wonder doesn’t it.  They will definitely be a part of the anti-christ kingdom for sure.

The UN is where wanna be leaders of small impoverished countries go for validation.  they know their radical ideas and their failure on human rights will be accepted with open arms.  Not surprising the the great Rush Limbaugh once said, “the United Nations looks like the bar scene from a Star Wars movie.”  Man, I miss Rush.

It’s high time to kick the UN to the curb.  Why America allows such propaganda in our nation is a mystery to me.  Sent them packing with all their un paid parking tickets.  Please Trump do the world and the U.S  a favor and build them a home in Gaza.  That’s where they belong.  Or Babylon the seat of evil. 

Give Him 15 by Dutch Sheets

Below is portion of an article written by Dutch Sheets, a great man of God. His prayer ministry is well known here in the United States. He is right on target. Enjoy and pray for God’s wisdom in these crazy times. Rh

To those criticizing President Trump for his actions, accusing him of war crimes and of killing innocent people: if you have not screamed as loudly over the murder of 65 million babies in the womb; if you have not protested the mutilation of thousands of confused children by ideologically driven adults; if you did not weep and cry out over the 45,000 innocent Iranians tortured and murdered in the past few months by the evil regime in control there…then spare us your hypocrisy. Your rants ring hollow; your clamoring is meaningless, and your complaints are beyond hypocritical. President Trump and our military are doing the world a favor by dealing with this wicked regime. And we, as Americans, can endure some high fuel prices and a lower stock market for a short season as they do so. 

Pray for our leaders, especially our President. He is making difficult decisions that will impact the world for years. He has the guts and backbone to make tough calls, but only the wisdom of God can move us through these times successfully. Pray also for those advising him. Ask the Lord to block counsel that is not wise, allowing only His wisdom to get to the President. And pray for those in negotiations during this two-week period; ask the Lord to give them supernatural discernment and wisdom.

Pray that any evil intentions and lies from Iran’s leaders be exposed, and pray against the powers of darkness involved in this situation. The Bible speaks of â€śprincipalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, and spiritual wickedness in high places” (Ephesians 6:12). We are to stand against them! Ask the Lord for the continued overthrow of the prince of Persia/Iran mentioned in Daniel 10. This spirit seeks to interrupt God’s messages, wear down His people, and thereby disrupt His timing. 

Don’t simply watch the news; make the news through your prayers! The greatest weapon we have is appealing to heaven. When we do not pray, the enemy can prevail in the earth’s situations. But the effectual, fervent prayers of the righteous still avail much (James 5:16)! Dutch Sheets

Expecting the Resurrection

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

As Christians we live in a Good Friday type of world.  You know a world where chaos, fears and evil things happen on a regular basis.  Sometimes we as Christians ask why?  Why do bad things happen to good people, especially Christians.  The simple answer is, I don’t know.  However the deeper and more relevant answer is that we live in a Friday type world.  You know that type of day, sickness happens, jobs are lost, fears attack us, we long for peace but it escapes us.  That is a Friday world, where sin is everywhere.   When Adam sinned he brought an inherent sin nature that invaded every person’s DNA.  Sin is a part of the “Friday World.”  Prayers are offered, but the answer never comes.  That is the kind of world we all live in.

We call it Good Friday because Jesus died for our sins, but the reality is there wasn’t much good about that day.  The night before in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus had made peace with His imminent death for you and I.  After all, that is the reason for His incarnation and birth.  As He stood before Pilate he carried the burdens of the world, literally.  He bore our sins, each and everyone one of them.  You see the Jews didn’t kill Him, the Romans didn’t kill Him.  He died willingly for us.   (I Corinthians 5:21) He who knew no sin, became sin for us.”That was the reason He came to earth.  Jesus was born to die a substitutionary death for mankind.  (John 3:16) “For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son.”

Paul lived in that kind of “Friday world,” beatings, riots and fear of his life.  He made a profound statement when he said if all we have is this world, we are most pitiful. 

Our hope in Jesus gives us citizenship in Heaven.  This isn’t my world, this isn’t my home, I have a home in Heaven.  Bought and paid for by the most precious element on earth.  The Blood of Jesus!

America Is Divided By Sin Not Politics

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

The devil saw my head down and he thought he won, until I said Amen!

There is division in America.  That is a fact, no one can doubt that premise.  However it is not by politics, but by sin. The division comes from two opposing world views.  One is a Biblical worldview and the other is a secular humanist worldview.  That is the  red line in the sand.  Neither side will give in.  I will never compromise my Biblical Moral Worldview.  

 America has a rich tradition of being a nation built on traditional family values, Judeo-Christian values.  God ordained us to spread the Gospel around the world and we did that by sending missionaries to far off distant counties.  Our mandate came through a prophecy by  Vicar Robert Hunt (1586-1608) the first Anglican chaplain of the Jamestown expedition and is renowned for a 1607 prayer and prophecy dedicating the new American land to God. Upon landing at Cape Henry, Hunt planted a seven-foot cross and “declared a covenant in the Gospel would go forth from that shore to the entire world”.  Furthermore he stated “we should focus on the mandate to raise up Godly generations after us”.

I will say,  we tried.  The United States experienced three or four Great Spiritual Awakenings:

First Great Awakening (1730s–1740s): Led by figures like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield, this period focused on personal conviction, redemption, and a shift away from traditional, formal religion.

Second Great Awakening (1790s–1840s): Characterized by camp meetings and the rise of itinerant preachers like Charles Finney, it resulted in significant church growth and reform movements.

Third Great Awakening (1857–1859): Often called the “Businessmen’s Revival,” this movement began with prayer meetings in New York City during a financial crisis and spread nationwide.

Fourth Great Awakening (Late 1960s–early 1970s): Debated by some, this wave is often linked to the “Jesus Movement” and rapid growth in conservative denominations

What America needs is not a new or reformed political party, but another great Spiritual awakening.  Our government as it is now is a corrupt “ruling class” entity that does whatever it desires.  Two passages in the Bible give us an insight into how the Almighty looks at us.  It’s not a pretty sight.  One thing I know is that God is not mocked, we will reap what we sow.

1 Timothy1:9-10

“knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,”

Take a look again at some phrases:

  • murders; abortion and rage of violence 
  • fornicators; our sex craved society
  • sodomites; the entire gender mafia
  • kidnappers; sex slaves
  • liars; our government hides and lies constantly
  • perjurers; truth has fallen in the street

Read Isaiah 59:1-10: hands defiled with blood, feet that run to evil, no justice, lack of truth, and our thoughts are continually on evil and iniquities. 

We need an awakening, repentance and a turning from the evil that permeates our society.  The division is caused not by political, but spiritual warfare that divides us more than even a civilian war based on political ideology.  We need intercessors more than candidates.  We need hungry hearts and souls that long after the Lord.  Humility filled with a desire for the things of God.  Turning from evil and pushing into the holy place where God resides.

Unfortunately the majority of the American church is living in a daze of the prosperity gospel, feeling they have need of nothing.  Bills are paid, money in the bank, but all the while Jesus is knocking on the door of our hearts desiring a deeper relationship with His church.

We need the Ekklesia to become the remnant that pursues the holiness of God more than the pleasures of the world.  Jesus is the only solution for a deprived world.  He is our only hope.  The world is on a downward path, the Bible tells us for a fact that a spirit of anti-christ will invade the last days.  We are there now.

Let me be clear, I am not saying we shouldn’t be involved with politics.  We most definitely should.  We as Christian Conservatives vote our Biblical values.  It is our duty and I believe a mandate from the Lord.  Look through the slick commercials and line up your candidate with the Word of God.  What I am saying is this…we need a “Great Awakening” to save this country.  

Spiritual warfare is real and we must win the spiritual war first and then the awakening will come.  Lord Jesus raise up holy intercessors in this time..  You were born for such a time as this.

After the American public witnessed the Department of Justice target school board parents during President Joe Biden’s term, the DOJ lawyers might have been outdone by secretive analysts at the CIA and their hated target: Stay-at-home moms and their organic gardens.

WOW! Truth Bomb

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

Rare moment of truth at the UN from brave Kuwaiti dissident Jasem Aljuraid, invited by UN Watch:

Mr. Chair,

I heard the term “colonizers.” But who are the real colonizers? A Jewish Kingdom ruled in Judea for a thousand years. We, the Arabs, took this land.

Who Arabized Egyptians, Phoenicians, Persians and Amazighs? It was us, the Arabs.

So why does the council enshrine a lie by keeping a permanent agenda item on Palestine, while ignoring the indigenous heart of Israel returning home?

Let us be clear about who is actually defending our sovereignty. Today, Israel is a fighter for peaceful nations, freeing Gaza from Hamas and saving Iranians from the Islamic Republic.

What Israel is doing to the IRGC — stopping a genocidal regime from acquiring nuclear weapons — is a gift to humanity.

There are 57 Islamic countries and only one Jewish state, Israel. Despite the ongoing hateful desire to eliminate it, Israel has not only survived, it has thrived.

I don’t believe in miracles, but this is one.

So I ask the UN: when will you end the ritual of condemning Israel?

Is it not time, instead, to learn from Israel? How to defeat terror, defend free societies, and pursue peace.

Thank you.

(UN Watch)

I hope he survives, however there are more Arab states that privately understand this reality. Iran is not a friend of anyone except terror groups. Saudi Arabia and other somewhat “moderate” states understand Israel has no intention in their destruction. They do fear Iran as witnessed by their missile and drone attacks. Rh

Trump Statement

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

President Trump:

I am pleased to report that the United States of America and the country of Iran have had, over the last two days, very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East. Based on the tenor and tone of these in-depth, detailed, and constructive conversations, which will continue throughout the week, I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

President Donald J. Trump

Interesting, who blinks first?  Obviously Iran needs a deal regardless of what they may put out for public consumption.  Trump has declared to destroy oil infrastructure soon.  Don’t think Trump is bluffing, but obviously complete and total surrender with the US getting all the processed uranium out of Iran might just stop this war.  America has to make sure Iran is defeated and can not develop more nuclear material or work on ballistic missiles.  That should be a given.

Following Trump’s announcement of talks, markets reacted immediately. Oil prices dropped by 8%, but futures rose by 2-3%.

The back and forth continues. Please Trump don’t stop until you have all the objectives accomplished,  Don’t Bush this wart, by stopping too soon and have issues in the future!

  • Fars News Agency quotes an Iranian source: “There are no direct or indirect negotiations with Trump. He backed down after hearing our threats.”  Not sure if true or not, but Iran is notorious for lying about talks and negotiations.  So take it for what it is.
  • Reuters: Washington updated Israel on its talks with Tehran, and Israel is likely expected to follow the US and suspend any attacks on power plants and energy infrastructure in Iran.

Trump on Iran

  • “Well, they’re gonna have to get themselves better public relations people. We’ve had very strong talks. Mr Witkoff and Kushner had them. They went perfectly.” – Trump on Iran denying that any talks happened.
  • Trump: “If we have a deal with Iran, we will go down to the nuclear facilities and take the uranium ourselves”. 
  • We want no enrichment, and we also want the enriched uranium.
  • If this happens, it is a great start for Iran to build itself back.
  • We want the nuclear dust. We’re going to want that, and I think we’re going to get that. 
  • We’ve agreed to that—yeah, we’re going to; we’ve agreed to that.

Well there you have, it if Trump is telling the truth he just doubled down on his requirements to end the war.  I have no reason to doubt him, but….remember Iran is a bunch of lying extremists.  Their religion allows them to lie for the greater good of Islam.  Stay tuned.  Rh
