It’s time to celebrate America! What started as an upstart experiment in self governing, has lasted 250 years with no sign of ending. We are the best and greatest example of freedom, whether religious or personal the world has ever known. We are fundamental to the freedoms of the world. If America ever falls the world will degrade into chaos. We are what is holding the world together, and it is because of the Christian influence not only of our founders, but of the remnant of Christians praying and interceding for our nation. God bless the United States of America. Let your Spirit renew us and change us into your image is my prayer. Rh
According to one survey, an estimated 41 million born-again Christians chose not to vote in the 2024 election, including 32 million self-identified Christians who regularly attend church, and 14 million church-going evangelicals.

It seems the only time Christians are too heavenly minded is when it comes to voting and governmental issues. That is when we take a hands off approach to things that pertain to our freedoms and our quality of life. Voting is fundamental. We have the type of government we vote for. We have a choice, stand up and vote your Biblical values or follow isolationist Christians into bondage and slavery. “Big Government” is not our friend. Take the Save Act, overwhelming support by all Americans. Still not even a vote by a so-called Republican majority.
The back and forth between the World’s most powerful nation and a semi third-world wannabe has taken on the role of divorce court 2026. Every day or two it seems the scorned wife (Iran) blows up and threatens the unfaithful husband (Trump) with humiliation. Of course then Trump responds with “unacceptable”! Back and forth we go in an almost daily stream more reminiscent of divorce court rather than two nations attempting to work out a cease fire. Can we get a mediator in the room, please.
One of Trump’s biggest problems, and his best advantage is that he says whatever pops into his brain. Not always good for mediation, but does keep the enemy off balance. So I can’t remember is this the third or fourth time Trump has threatened to blast Iran off the face of the earth? Too many threats and not enough action. Do it or stop saying it. The U.S. is starting to sound like a bully, or Obama and his notorious red line in the sand.
Heres is my take:
Iran can’t be trusted, they lie
If a deal is made, Iran will break it
Trump has pressure at home; mid-terms, high gas prices etc
Bad advice from the advisors inside the White House
Get rid of Kushner and Witkoff, they are money hungry idiots
Just as with Gaza the war which was stopped too quickly, so it is with Iran. In the case of Gaza it was simply wanting peace so badly that Trump overlooked the fact that throwing money at a religious war will not work. Been there, tried that more than once. How do you think Iran got the money to build and buy their weaponry? Obama and his pallets of cash, anyone? The same thing has happened in Iran, we stopped too soon. Or IMO we should have been more aggressive in taking Kharg Island, that would have stopped the global oil pressures, and opened the Strait of Hormuz. Surely we had the firepower to do that with very minimal and possible no loss of life.
Granted I’m a keyboard warrior when it comes to military intelligence, but come on, we had enough fire power to do the job. Back to divorce court for another round of “he said”, “she said”. Will this ever end? Iran cares less about a solution than Trump does. That does not bode well for the U.S.
Time will tell the endgame, but as of now the results I see in the future are not at all what I hoped for. Let us also bear in mind the lateness of our time on earth. We are in the last days, Iran will still be somewhat viable when Turkey and Russia join them to move against a somewhat peaceful and secure Israel. (Ezekiel 38). God is sovereign and it is all in His timing, but it does seem to be Déjà vu all over again.
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. 💔 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!
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.
Excellent article by a grassroots Christian conservative organization that has been in the fight for Faith, Family, Freedom for decades. Please enjoy. Rh
An old story about a man who found a snake on the top of a mountain range cold and about to die. The man took the snake into his home and warmed him, after the snake was active he bit the man. The man was incredulous, why did you do that? I saved your life. The snake replied, I am a snake, that’s what I do, you knew what I was when you took me home and warmed me.
The moral of the story is that American Presidents and diplomats have treated Iran and its proxies, Hamas and Hezbollah the same way. We infuse life while we forget the danger they permeate. From Bush to Obama we have given cash and agreed to bad one sided deals with a country that lives off lies and subterfuge. That kind of behavior only feeds a deadly snake whose head needs to be cut off. Remember the pallets of cash sent to Iran from Obama? I do. So all you democrats sit this one out, we are only having to clean up your mess.
Iran is defenseless, air superiority is with the US and Israeli military. Missiles and drones fired are being intercepted at an amazing success rate. However the regional partners and some allies of Iran are feeling the rabid dog approach of indiscriminately firing at their country and hoping to cause damage. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, and even Cyprus are on high alerts. Greece is sending air support. The rabid dog is cornered, and they are still most dangerous when wounded and fighting for their life.
Much more needs to be done, but I feel confident between Trump and Netanyahu it will be finished in Iran and a new government will eventually take over, and hopefully more friendly than what we have seen since 1979. I remember the debacle of the Carter administration, another democrat that enabled the radicals. Only time will tell, but this action had to happen. A world of Iranian terror networks becoming nuclear could never happen.
All of you so-called American first numbskulls that think America should isolate itself, you aren’t living in the real world. Evil people exist, and they need a deterrent, and rightly or wrongly that is 🇺🇸 America.
Continued prayer for safety for the military and civilians caught up in this terror of war. Wisdom for those in charge and a quick end to this operation. Kudos to those in charge of planning this operation on both sides, Israel and the US. Awesome job, let’s just make sure we finished it this time. IMO
To Him who loved us: What a beautiful title for Jesus! When loved is used, in the past tense, it points back to a particular time and place where Jesus loved us. It should be pointed out that many translations have loves us (such as NASB, NIV, and NLT), but there is something beautiful about loved us. It looks back to the cross. Every believer should be secure in God’s love, not based on their present circumstances (which may be difficult), but based on the ultimate demonstration of love at the cross. This is worth praising Jesus about.
Paul put it like this in Romans 5:8: But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. The work of Jesus on the cross for us is God’s ultimate proof of His love for you. He may give additional proof, but He can give no greater proof.
No wonder many believers are not secure in knowing the love of Jesus towards them – they look to their present circumstances to measure His love. Instead, they need to look back to the cross, settle the issue once for all, and give praise to Jesus, to Him who loved us.
And washed us from our sins in His own blood: This is what happened when Jesus loved us at the cross. He washed us – cleansed us from the deep stain of sin, so that we really are clean before Him. This is worth praising Jesus about.
If we understand our own deep sinfulness, this seems almost too good to be true. We can stand clean before God – clean from the deepest of stains. No wonder the same Apostle John also wrote, If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness(1 John 1:9).
In His own blood: If there were any other way to wash us from our sins, God would have done it that other way. To wash us in His own blood meant the ultimate sacrifice of God the Son. God wouldn’t do it this way unless it was the only way. “The priests could only cleanse with blood of bulls and goats; but he has washed us from our sins ‘in his own blood.’ Men are willing enough to shed the blood of others. How readily they will enter upon war! But Christ was willing to shed his own blood, to pour out his soul unto death, that we might be saved.” (Spurgeon)
Notice the order: first loved, then washed. It wasn’t that God washed us out of some sense of duty and then loved us because we were then clean. He loved uswhile we were dirty, but then He washed us.
In fact, washing proves love. If you had an old pair of pants, and got them covered in paint, you would only wash them and keep them for two reasons. First, you might wash them and keep them if you were poor. You can’t or won’t spend money on another pair of pants, so you wash them and keep them. Second, you might wash them and keep them if you really loved those old pants. Money isn’t the issue. You could go down and buy a new pair of pants any time; but you love that pair so much that you spend the time and the effort to clean them, and use them again. God loves us so much that He washed us. God certainly is not poor. With merely a thought, He could obliterate every sinner and start over with brand-new creatures. But He doesn’t. He loves us so much that He washed us.
Some scholars believe that John wrote and loosed us from our sins. There is only one letter different between the words washed and loosed in the ancient Greek language. Both words show up in ancient manuscripts, so it’s hard to say which one John wrote. Nevertheless, both are true – we are both washed and loosed from our sins.
And has made us kings and priests to His God and Father: This is status Jesus gives to those whom He loved in His work on the cross and who are washed… in His own blood. It would have been enough just to love them and cleanse them. But He goes far beyond, and makes us kings and priests to His God and Father. This is more than Adam ever was. Even in the innocence of Eden we never read of Adam among the kings and priests of God. This is worth praising Jesus about.
We are kings, so we are God’s royalty – this is privilege, status, and authority. We are priests, so we are God’s special servants. We represent God to man and man to God. We offer sacrifice unto Him (Hebrews 13:15). We have privileged access to God’s presence (Romans 5:1-2).
Kings and priests: In the Old Testament, it was forbidden to combine the offices of king and priest. King Uzziah of Judah is an example of a man who tried to combine the two offices, and paid the penalty for it (2 Chronicles 26:16-23). Under the New Covenant, we can be like Jesus in the sense that He is both King and High Priest (Luke 1:31-33; Hebrews 4:14).
Secularists contend that we are not a Christian nation. They argue that we don’t have righteousness in our roots. The unbelievers in the political far left would unequivocally state, “This nation was not raised up by God.”
No wonder secularists want to steal America’s God-given history. We shouldn’t be surprised that a former President once said we were not a Christian nation, contending that we were also a Muslim nation, a Hindu nation, an atheist nation, and so on. Karl Marx once said, ‘The first battlefield is to rewrite history.’ The demons in Karl Marx knew the power of history. And demons today inspire anti-Christ forces in America to try and rewrite our history, as well. As Believers, what we must do is stake our claim to the fact that God birthed America and we are in covenant with Him. If we war using this truth, He will fight for us and defeat the giants.
It’s important to know that we have a God-given history. He raised up this nation. It’s also important to know the reason why. When Robert Hunt landed on the shores of Cape Henry in 1607, he made the following statement—prophesying, though he may not have called it that. He planted a cross on the beach and said, “The Gospel will go forth from these shores, not only to this land, but to all the nations of the earth.” This is God’s destiny for America!!
It was Israel that gave us the Gospel—the Messiah, Jesus Christ who came from the land of Israel. America was raised up and given the mantle to trumpet that Gospel and the message of Messiah. There has never been a nation with as great a destiny to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom and of salvation. That is our destiny. Our primary destiny is not simply to be the strongest or the richest nation on earth; to the contrary our strength and wealth were given to us in order to fulfill God’s mandate for America.
We have never asked anything for our involvement in the World. First on the scene and last to leave. We give money, time and the blood of our military to secure freedom. If America falls, so falls the whole world for we are the last bastion of freedom and liberty. God bless the United States of America.
