What about Joseph??

As 2026 starts I am reading the Bible through from Genesis to Revelation.  One can do that by reading just 3 or 4 chapters a day.  Very easy.  I don’t always do that from front to back, many times I read through in varying ways.  Starting at Genesis gives us, especially needed in today’s anti-Jewish world, a complete look at the people of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob or Israel as his name was changed by God.  

As I am closing in on finishing the book of Genesis, the Lord put something in my heart early (about 5 AM) this morning.  Joseph has been sold into slavery by the jealousy of his brothers.  Joseph ends up in Egypt and through divine revelations given to Joseph he rises from prison to the number two official in Egypt, only behind Pharoah.  God always has a plan.  With dreams of seven years of plenty, then 7 years of drought God revealed to Joseph how to save not only Egypt, but Joseph’s long lost family.  The family is restored, and Israel becomes a multitude of people.

Let’s back up for today’s devotion of truth and faithfulness on God’s part.  After Joseph was put in prison on a lie, falsely accused of sexual misconduct with his boss’s wife.  Joseph was forgotten by a fellow prisoner who was released through a dream Joseph interpreted.  Joseph had asked the man to speak favorable to Pharoah on his behalf.  The man forgot.  Out of sight out of mind.  Later as Pharoah had a troubling dream Joseph was released from prison to interpret the dream and soon was put second in charge of the Kingdom of Egypt.  Rags to riches, no, just God’s plan of redemption for the Hebrew people during the seven year drought.  Wow God works in mysterious ways.  

The rags to riches story culminates with Joseph being given a wife, and having two sons form to him.

“And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him. Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: “For God has made me forget all my toil and all my father’s house.””

‭‭Genesis‬ ‭41‬:‭50‬-‭51‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“And the name of the second he called Ephraim: “For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.””

‭‭Genesis‬ ‭41‬:‭52‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

What a testimony of the patience and perseverance of Joseph, years in prison falsely accused. raised up to the second highest seat of power in the land of Egypt.  His testimony was his children’s names.

Notice the names Joseph gave his sons, Manasseh (forgotten toil), and Ephraim (fruitful in affliction).  

What of our testimony?  Does the world, those outside the church see our faithfulness and fruitfulness, even in trials and trouble?  Or do they see cranky defeated Christians walking a compromised life?  What a wonderful testimony of the life of Joseph.  God never forgets us, and will make us fruitful, even in times of trials and persecution.

In times of trouble or persecution, our attitude becomes our walk, and our walk becomes our testimony.  What does the unbelieving world say about you?

The Remnant Church – Shifts & Divisions 2026

Good morning and God bless each and everyone who follows my blog or reads the content.  We are entering into a most divisive and profound year, (IMO). As I look forward to the new year I see two rivers running side by side.  One is righteous, because of the blood of Jesus, the other one is evil filled with the influence of the spirit of anti-christ. The other gospel is one of false hope, prosperity and a God of love that winks at our sin. Compromises the authority and inerrancy of the Gospel. Paul spoke clearly about this in the book of Galatians. “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Division in the church is not new, however I sense in my spirit it will become profound in the coming year.  We are ripe for the Holy Spirit to divide sheep from the goats.  The Church, as a whole, is confounded by the purity of the Gospel.  Another gospel is being preached. One of love, not holiness, one of acceptance not dedication, one of peace and prosperity when we are in time of war, (Spiritual War) is upon us.

Limp wristed tip toe through the tulips watered down Christianity is a stench in the nostrils of a Holy God.  “Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬-‭18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Hebrews 12:14b “without holiness no one will see the Lord.”  A remnant of holiness will mark the true church in 2026.

  • Not “without love.”
  • Not “without good vibes.”
  • Not “without sincerity.”
  • Without holiness.
  • Because love is God’s gift to us, but holiness is our response to Him.
  • Holiness is “more than praying a standard prayer” repentance means change of heart
  • Cross not crowns
  • Holiness draws a line in the sand against sin
  • Love invites you to cross it.
  • Holiness requires you to change as you cross.

Daniel 11:32b “but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.”  Knowing God brings intimate knowledge that empowers His people to do extraordinary, courageous acts for His glory,

The fire of the Holy Spirit will burn the chaff from our lives, it will cause a fire breathed anointing to the remnant church.  A “Holy” desire that brings us into the Lord’s presence.  The word remnant is only used twice for Israel in the New Testament, but never for the Church.  Awake and arise church, let us take our rightful place ruling and reigning with Christ in the heavenly places in the spirit realm. “and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,” Ephesians 2:6

‭Intercession and repentance that leads to holiness will be the standard for the remnant church in 2026.  Will you join me? 

Live in His Word, and Walk in His Spirit

‘They Sponsor Terrorism’: Trump Moves to Target Muslim Group Following Startling Report by Paul Petitte – CBN News

JERUSALEM — The Muslim Brotherhood is an Islamic terror group so dangerous that it’s banned in Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Egypt. This year in the U.S., Texas and Florida designated the group a foreign terrorist organization. In the coming days, the Trump administration is expected to do the same.

President Donald Trump’s executive order beginning the process of designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization follows a lengthy report by the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy, known as ISGAP.

The report, nearly 200 pages long, argues that the Muslim Brotherhood has spent decades advancing what it calls a “civilization jihad” aimed at undermining democratic institutions in the United States and the West.

“This is an organization that believes in murdering Jews, destroying Israel, and destroying the United States of America,” said Dr. Charles Asher Small, the founder and director of ISGAP. “This is their objective.”

Founded nearly a century ago in Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood now operates across the Middle East. Hamas originated as the group’s Palestinian branch, according to the report.

In November, Small appeared alongside lawmakers and scholars to warn that the Brotherhood is “more than halfway through” what ISGAP describes as a 100-year plan to erode democratic societies from within.

“They sponsor terrorism, murder, and mayhem across the planet,” said U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee at a recent Knesset prayer event. “They are a very negative and destructive force, and it’s very important for the United States to use its power and influence to call them out for what they are.”

The ISGAP report focuses heavily on what it describes as the Brotherhood’s influence operations in the West, particularly in academia. It alleges that groups such as the Muslim Students Association and Students for Justice in Palestine serve as vehicles for spreading the organization’s ideology. The report cites Students for Justice in Palestine as a major force behind violent anti-Israel protests at Columbia University.

Small pointed to the election of Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City as evidence of what he describes as long-term political penetration.
“He came out of SJP,” Small said. “He was a student activist for Students for Justice in Palestine at Bowdoin College. It’s important for your listeners to understand that SJP comes out of American Muslims for Palestine, which is a Muslim Brotherhood-backed organization.”

Trump’s executive order states that Muslim Brotherhood chapters in Lebanon, Jordan and Egypt pose a threat to U.S. national security interests.

Middle East analyst Dr. Mike Evans said he urged the administration to expand the scope of the order to include Brotherhood-linked activity in Syria, Turkey and Qatar.

“The Muslim Brotherhood and Qatar funded and fueled terror — al Qaeda, the Taliban, Iran and Hamas,” Evans said. “These people hate us.”

At the state level, decisions by Texas and Florida governors to label both the Muslim Brotherhood and the Council on American-Islamic Relations as terrorist organizations are currently being challenged in court.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott cited past convictions tied to CAIR affiliates in defending the designation. “One of the founders of the Texas branch of CAIR was sent to prison for 65 years for financing terrorism,” Abbott said. “The fact of the matter is there are people associated with CAIR who pose a serious danger.”

Under Trump’s order, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent must submit a joint report by the end of the year outlining next steps toward a formal designation.

The Muslim Brotherhood is already banned as a terrorist organization in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Syria, and Jordan. However, the ISGAP report says Brotherhood-linked organizations continue to operate freely in Turkey and Qatar, funding media outlets and political influence campaigns worldwide.

“Qatar is buying favor with the BBC, CNN, and other media outlets, including Al Jazeera, and it’s now into our political system,” Small said.

Evans said a formal U.S. designation would dramatically limit the group’s global reach. “It’s a game changer,” Evans said. “When you designate a terrorist organization, they can’t move anymore. They have no room to operate.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has praised Trump’s initiative and indicated Israel may follow with its own designation.

Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Sharren Haskel warned that radical Islamist groups have been clear about their long-term goals. “We’ve seen the movements of radical jihadist groups who say very clearly that what they seek is the destruction of Western civilization as we know it today,” Haskel said.

Conservatives Who Called Al Jazeera ‘Terror TV’ Now Silent as Qatar Eyes CNN.

December 10, 2025

By Colby Hall

Source: Mediaite

For twenty years, conservative media called Al Jazeera “terror TV” because Qatar funded it. They insisted that Qatari money in journalism meant Qatari influence, and Qatari influence meant danger. This was the refrain on Fox News, talk radio, and all across the right-wing blogosphere. A foreign state owning a news outlet was treated not as a story but as a threat.

And now? Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund is reportedly among the investors approached to help finance a takeover bid that includes CNN. Reuters reported that David Ellison’s team explored funding from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE as they assembled the capital stack for the Paramount–Skydance offer. These are not confirmed investments, but the outreach is documented. A foreign state’s sovereign wealth entering an American newsroom should set off the alarms that conservatives spent years building.

Instead, there is silence.

There are several different ways to overthrow a society and a country. One is to outright invade with military force, another is to infiltrate our collages and government with paid actors to change our educational institutes or governmental policy. We see that almost everyday here in the U.S. Qatar and Saudi Arabia have done just that. They are not our friend, they don’t use threats of war, but they silently take over with petro $. Education institutions, governmental subterfuge and now a Qatari investment fund trying to buy CNN? Emphatically NO! We have grown much too close to this terror sponsoring nation in the Middle East. On the bright side, you might not even notice the difference. Just my perspective. Rh

Nearly 50 Nigerian Catholic School Children Escape Extremists; Hundreds Remain Missing

So many Christians around the world are living in “constant combat,” persecuted daily for their faith in Christ. One prominent example are the Christians in Nig

This Christian persecution by the demonic forces must stop in Nigeria. Please pray and intercede for protection for these precious people. The spirit of anti-christ is rampant, even in so called western democracies. I ask you to stop what your are doing and pray when you read this. “Lord we come against this demonic spirit ruling over this nation of Nigeria and declare it must cease its efforts to kill and destroy. We bind you in the name of Jesus by your Holy Spirit, Amen!” Rh

Thankfulness

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. This is a day set aside to be thankful for all the blessing in life. We have breath, and life and most of us have lots to be appreciative of. Family, friends and loved ones. A nation that may be torn apart and divided along political and sectarian reasons, but is still the only hope for the world. America, a bastion of hope and freedom where all men are created equal and have opportunities that the majority of the world long for.

My greatest thanks is to Almighty God who sent us a savior. His name is Jesus and he is the most blessed hope for mankind. Salvation, forgiveness and hope is only found in His saving grace. If you feel troubled or lost, maybe even thinking of ending it all by taking your own life, rethink that thought. You have a savior. He is closer than a brother, call upon Him now. He will fill your heart with peace. The Bible tells us there is no other name given to save us. Believe in Him. confess him as your Lord and he will save you.

New life in Christ will transform you into a new person. That is why it is called being born again. All things will pass away and all things will become brand new. Jesus is the answer to life.

 Why Are Democrats Consumed With Sex & Nudity

The question is a good one, why are democrats so in love with sex and nudity?  It seems that every protest the radical luciferians do is rooted in either taking their clothes off or flaunting an alternative lifestyle on national TV.  Trying to make the obscene normal.  Is it only a rebellion against traditional values, or is there a more deep seated impulse that comes into play.  I believe it is much more than just trying to shock, it is also an intimidation technique. Since normal humanity is repulsed by their activity, it lessens the pushback at the demonstrations.  

When the Supreme Court ruled that abortion was not found as a constitutional right, off came the shirts of the so called feminist.  By the way, have you seen some of these chicks? No thank you.  Conservative chicks ok, but left wingers, not so much most look like men.They flaunt not only their desire to murder babies in the womb, but also express their hatred of normalcy and the decency laws of the land.  Take the recent attempt at a “No Kings” rally, nakedness and carnality was the rule of the day.  By the way “so called men.” I prefer the term soy boys who attempt to make their point by dressing down.  All the way to garter belts, g-strings, and penis costumes.  How does one take these malcontents seriously?  We don’t, but the mainstream media and the fellow democrats in Congress surely do.  In the next paragraph will tell you all you need to know about ½ of congress.

What’s up with the old hippies?  Old white liberals must all be bored to death or something.  Every protest you see them hobbling down the street trying to keep up. White liberal women are the worst, and of course their husbands, geez,they only show up to support them or they will not get any peace at home.  Or sex.  But then have you seen them?  They dress and act and look like men.

In my opinion, and I think I have the Word of the Lord to back me up, they are being used by demonic spirits to act out.  They are either oppressed or possessed by demons.  ”Oh  my, that is so harsh, you are so hateful.”  Exactly what the trans mafia has called me for years.  No, I stand on the Word of God who declares that type of behavior indecent and evil.  In fact Romans Chapter 1 called it an abomination.  

Remember the Gadarene man who was possessed by a legion of demons?  He couldn’t keep his clothes on either or how about the demon in Acts 19:13-16 In Ephesus that jumped on seven brothers who attempted to cast out the demon.  They were ceremoniously attacked, prevailed against the brothers and left them screaming and running through the city naked.

Why oh why are obscenity laws not enforced.  Why do we let those who are completely void of common sense be allowed to act in such an immature and childish manner.  It seems that nakedness and sexual deviancy is the accepted form of protest in our country.   America has not only a mental health crisis, but an intense spiritual war on decency, culture and our American values. And in many cases they are one in the same.

MAGA dies by a thousand cuts

By Olivia Murray

As a part of the MAGA movement, although I was never a sycophant over Trump believing he could do no wrong, he is after all an egotistical politician and very flawed. He was our best hope considering the state of our country. Below is an interesting article that touches on many of my concerns as well. Let me know what you think? Rh

I didn’t vote for 50-year mortgages. I don’t want to spend half a century just paying off a modest house, forking over hundreds of thousands of extra dollars in interest alone.

So after 50 years, you might finally have your house in your name. What happens when property taxes price you out of that home, assuming you can even afford 50 years of property tax increases? Consider that in just 13 years (between 1980 and 1993), property taxes rose a whopping 62% in after-inflation dollars for Americans. Between last year and now, property taxes nationwide rose 3%. If that trend holds exactly the same (impossible as long as debt goes up and money keeps getting inflated), that’s an astronomical increase over the next half-century. As of 2024, the average property tax bill for a single-family home in the U.S. was right around $4,712. At a 3% interest increase each year, that means in 50 years, that yearly property tax bill will be $20,656.97.

Quite the spokesman for the “You will own nothing and be happy” World Economic Forum campaign.

What’s Trump’s next proposal going to be, 15-year car loans? Is he going to get behind the debt slavery offered at the Wal-Mart checkout line that offers financing for a small grocery haul?

I didn’t vote to bring in 600,000 Chinese “students” to keep leftist universities afloat. In fact, I want these colleges, using my money to spew leftism, indoctrinate generations into mindlessness, and enshrine depravity into our culture to go out of business. I want a free market in education.

I didn’t vote for $2,000 tariff reimbursements, whether they’re paid for with already collected revenue (which includes some of my money as costs for imported products have already risen and I’ve paid higher prices), or future “anticipated” revenue from the tariffs, paid for by adding to the already staggering $38 trillion debt.

I didn’t vote for the Indian worker first, or the South Korean worker first. I voted for the American worker first. That’s what Trump promised us, and now he’s backtracking:

He says we don’t have talented people, that the American workforce doesn’t have enough people capable of making batteries, or working in a factory. I couldn’t disagree more.

I voted for all that talk about mass deportations, and we’re getting lower numbers than Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Sure, he’s getting infinitely more resistance because he’s Trump, but he’s still president. So what if he violates an order from some leftist activist judge? The consequence is just one more lawsuit. Who cares? Why won’t he be the “monster” the left thinks he is? The housing market is at a breaking point because of supply and demand laws—throw out 100 million illegals living here and it’s problem solved…without half-century bank-owned rental agreements.

I

voted for denaturalizations, particularly foreigners who allegedly marry their own siblings to defraud the American system, or who omit their participation in socialist and leftist activities to again, game entry. Why are Zohran and Ilhan still here? Where is the heat?

I didn’t vote for NBA gambling busts. I don’t care. I voted for the Epstein list, arrests of deep state traitors and criminal congressmen, and I voted for law and order that matters. I don’t care if people drive 10 miles over the speed limit, and I don’t care if someone leaks a text about Lebron James and an ankle injury. But what did I get? Some guy named Chauncey Billups is now in the hot seat, facing the full might of the federal government.

I voted for an end to cronyism, but then I read about Kash Patel taking our private jet to watch his girlfriend sing the national anthem at an event in Pennsylvania, before presumably dropping her off at her home in Nashville. Sure, he has to “reimburse” the government the cost of a commercial ticket, but we still have to offset the tens of thousands of dollars it actually costs to fly privately on personal jaunts.

I voted for an administration that would respect the strict limits placed upon the federal government by our founders, but I got a Pam Bondi DOJ that “has no plans to abandon its previous arguments” made by Merrick Garland’s DOJ against gun rights.

If Trump pisses away these four years doing nothing much of note, governing like a total middle-of-the-road president, we’re in for such a world of hurt when the left inevitably comes to power again. They’re maniacal, having been whipped into hysterical frenzies, and they’re out for blood, and without cleaning up our country and enforcing real justice and accountability, they’re going to get it. They’re going to make us pay dearly for a completely squandered four years.

What in the world is Trump doing?

Regev: Transportation Ministry Implementing “de facto sovereignty” in Judea and Samaria

Regev: Transportation Ministry implementing ‘de facto sovereignty’ in Judea and Samaria – JNS.org
— Read on www.jns.org/regev-transportation-ministry-implementing-de-facto-sovereignty-in-judea-and-samaria/

A couple of quick points on this article, 

* Judea and Samaria are a part of ancient Israel

* America or any other nation has no right to tell the sovereign state of Israel what they can and cannot do.

* Americans need to realize that our partnership with Israel has benefitted us tremendously.

* Never before that I can remember has Israel been as strong and at the same time as vulnerable as they are today.  Possession is 9/10 of the law.  

* Building roads and infrastructure puts a stamp of ownership Judea & Samaria. Rh

Kash vs Tulsi – Honeymoon Over??

From the article: FBI Director Kash Patel crushed efforts by Tulsi Gabbard‘s closest advisor to see if a foreign power was involved in Charlie Kirk‘s assassination.

The head of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joe Kent, analyzed FBI files to determine whether Kirk’s alleged killer received assistance from a foreign power.

Kent’s investigation alarmed Patel, who believed the counterterror chief was overstepping by interfering with an ongoing FBI investigation, according to the New York Times.

Kirk was shot in the throat by a high-powered sniper rifle while speaking to college students at Utah Valley University on September 10. Tyler Robinson, 22, was charged with the murder and now faces the death penalty if found guilty.
