President Trump — Woman to Woman Mentoring

The Thin Blue Line Separating Order from Chaos

National Police Week was observed May 10 through 16 to honor officers killed in the line of duty and recognize law enforcement communities across the country.

You and I are safer because these men and women put on the badge and uniform every day and walk out the door to go to work where they run toward danger while their families pray they’ll return safely at the end of their watch.

The thin blue line symbolizes the police as the barrier between law and order and societal chaos, representing solidarity, duty, and the sacrifices of law enforcement officers.

The term “thin blue line” traces its roots to the Thin Red Line of the 1854 Crimean War, where a Scottish regiment held off a Russian cavalry charge, symbolizing courage and defense against overwhelming odds. The phrase was later adapted to law enforcement, with “blue” referencing the traditional color of police uniforms. Early uses in the U.S. include New York Police Commissioner Richard Enright in 1922 and popularization by Los Angeles Police Chief William Parker in the 1950s, emphasizing the police as the line separating order from chaos.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know my father was one of the fallen who never returned home from his night shift. In 1957, he was a thirty-six-year-old California Highway Patrolman only four years in the force when he was shot and murdered with his own gun by a high school teacher he had pulled over. The rawness of our tragic loss is always fresh in my heart and mind.

What also is tragic to me is the way law enforcement is treated today by the media, liberals, and Democrats who continue to demonize the very people whose job it is to keep them safe. The evolving result of this is that we see victims and their families demonized and murderers elevated to celebrity status.

When my father was killed almost seventy years ago, there was a national outpouring of empathy, sympathy, love, caring, and provision for our victim family. The police force always takes care of their own. My mother, widowed at 30 with two young daughters, immediately had supportive compassionate help from the police force and the community that continued for years. There were funds started for both my sister and me to go to college. Years later, when I run into former grammar school classmates, they still remember my hero father’s unjust violent murder.

Back then, the country and the community was horrified that this could happen to a police officer. There was genuine concern for us and disgust and anger at the man who brutally took my father’s life and left us without a husband, father, and provider.

Contrast that with the way Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk, who was mercilessly assassinated in front of thousands of people, has been vilified by the liberal media and social media. Erika was left with two young now fatherless children and suddenly thrust into the position of continuing Charlie’s vision for Turning Point USA.

After the gunfire at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 26, 2026, video surfaced of Erika Kirk leaving the Washington Hilton in tears. She had just lived through her second mass-shooting scene in less than eight months. The clip showed her trembling, asking simply, “I just want to go home.”

The mockery started on social media within hours. Senator John Fetterman watched it happen and could not stay quiet. Speaking to Fox News Digital, he pushed back hard.

“It blows. People attack a widow. I mean what’s wrong with people? That’s bonkers.”

Yes, that is bonkers. Mercilessly attacked for what she wears to how she grieves. I never saw anyone attacking how my mother grieved, what she wore, or what she did or didn’t do.

Bobby Orr wrote on Facebook about Fetterman’s comments: “You do not have to share a senator’s politics to recognize the moment. A man who disagrees with Erika Kirk on almost every issue stood up for her because something deeper was at stake. Basic human decency. The simple instinct that you do not kick a woman when she has lost her husband to an assassin and just survived another shooting.

Scripture has been calling for this kind of decency for thousands of years. “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress.” James 1:27

Notice what James does not say. He does not say care for widows who agree with you. He does not say defend widows whose politics match yours. He says widows. Period.

A culture that mocks a grieving wife has forgotten something a Bronze Age fisherman understood. There is no faith without compassion, and no compassion without crossing the lines we have drawn.”

The irony is that this latest man attempting to assassinate President Trump has pleaded “not guilty” even when we’ve all seen videos of him armed with weapons running through the metal detector toward the ballroom. Along with pictures he took of himself previously in his hotel room covered with guns and knives. Then there’s the manifesto graphically stating his intent to not only kill President Trump but as many cabinet members and attendees as possible!

With incriminating evidence like that, in what world can you deny that you’re guilty?

In today’s upside down culture.

Like my father’s murderer, this man was also a teacher!

What’s Different Today?

Today, it seems as soon as a murderer is identified, there’s a GoFundMe set up. Not for the victim’s family, like the community did for my family, but for the murderer?

If the murderers or criminals are young attractive men or perceived as marginalized they become “heroes” instead of villains?!

Think about the glamorization of Luigi Mangione who gunned down a United Health Care Insurance executive, husband, and father.

Or Bryan Kohberger who brutally murdered four University of Idaho students in their sleep.

Has our culture completely lost its grip on good versus evil?

Jesse Watters on FOX recently interviewed Dr. Gad Saad about his recent book Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind.

Dr. Saad said that empathy is a good thing to have in a conversation or situation where you might need to put yourself in the other person’s mindset regarding their actions or opinions. But like anything, misplaced empathy results in something Dr. Gad Saad refers to as “suicidal empathy.”

A description of Saad’s book explains what’s happening in our culture today:
“Suicidal Empathy unleashes a blistering critique of maladaptively irrational altruism that has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. The results are everywhere: from coddling violent criminals to protecting rapists to branding self-defense as toxic behavior. We are witnessing a civilization in rapid decline. Lunatic policies are instituted because we prioritize the feelings of ostensibly marginalized groups over The Truth, criminals over victims, and squatters over homeowners. This is not humane; it’s an active dismantling of the pillars that keep us safe and free.“

For example, recently a young woman who fled for her life from a black man who was chasing her from the subway station refused to identify him to police with the rational that she didn’t want to see another black man in jail! Yet, the same suspect later pushed a 76-year-old man to his death at a Chelsea station.

That woman’s kind of suicidal empathy says you shouldn’t keep felons in prison. They’ve only been arrested 187 times and they deserve another chance.

Ultimately, this ends up with even more people hurt or killed like Iryna Zarutska stabbed to death on a train by a repeat offender. Yet liberal District Attorneys, Prosecutors, and Judges continue to put criminals back on the streets and so-called “sanctuary cities” protect and release illegals to terrorize communities and create chaos. Suicidal empathy!

People might express suicidal empathy with Luigi Mangione killing an insurance executive because in their twisted thinking he got back at the system they hate. Violence becomes justified.

When that type of twisted, hedonistic, lawlessness and chaos becomes the norm, an entire culture is committing suicidal empathy that eventually destroys the culture and the country.

I heard Texas Congressman Brandon Gill say in an interview during the 250 Year Rededicate America Back to God in DC last weekend, that he thinks violence and chaos might actually be the motivation on the political left. That’s demonic!

Here’s the short interview with Dr. Saad if you’d like to listen.

Our God is Not a God of Lawlessness

The Bible consistently portrays lawlessness as a serious offense against God’s moral law, revealing His deep concern, judgment, and ultimate rejection of those who persist in it.

1. Lawlessness is defined as sin
1 John 3:4 says, “Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.” This shows that lawlessness is not just breaking human rules, but rejecting God’s eternal standards.

2. God’s judgment on lawlessness
Matthew 24:12 warns, “Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” This indicates God’s heart is grieved when His people turn away from Him.
Galatians 5:19–21 lists the “acts of the flesh” and declares, “I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.” This reflects God’s rejection of those who embrace lawlessness.

3. Lawlessness as rebellion and separation
2 Thessalonians 2:7 describes the “mystery of lawlessness” as already at work, showing God’s ongoing restraint against it until His appointed time. Matthew 7:21–23 records Jesus saying, “I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.” A clear statement of God’s final rejection of those who live in rebellion.

4. Lawlessness as the work of the enemy
John 8:44 calls the devil “the father of lies” and the source of lawlessness, showing God’s opposition to the forces that lead people away from Him. 2 Corinthians 4:4 explains that Satan blinds those who reject God’s truth, aligning with God’s desire for people to see and follow His light.

5. Consequences and warnings
Deuteronomy 28 outlines God’s curses for disobedience, showing His displeasure with lawlessness and its effects on blessing and life. 2 Timothy 3:1–2 describes the end-time “wickedness” that will “consider nothing sacred,” reflecting God’s concern for the moral decay that leads to spiritual death.

Summary of God’s Feelings About Lawlessness

Grieved and disappointed when His people turn away from His law.
Judgmental toward those who persist in lawlessness, as seen in His warnings and final rejection.
Opposed to the forces and influences that cause lawlessness.
Hopeful in offering redemption to those who repent and return to Him.

These verses show that God’s heart is toward righteousness, truth, and obedience, and that lawlessness is a direct offense to His character and will.

What Must We Do to Have Another 250 Years of America as a Christian Nation?

May 17, 2026, President Trump declared a day of prayer to Rededicate America Back to God as part of our 250-year celebration.

Rededicate implies repentance. We’ve moved away from being a Christian nation honoring God’s morals and laws.

Can we go back to the way our Founding Fathers envisioned America?

Can we return to the way people reacted to my father’s murder with outrage?

Punishment for criminals.

Justice for the victims and their family.

Or will we continue sliding into the abyss of suicidal empathy, lawlessness, and chaos?

Only God knows the will of the American people to survive as a free Christian country or fall for Satan’s attempts to destroy us.

Prayer and a thin blue line separate the two outcomes.

Keep Praying. Keep Trusting. Keep Obeying.

Psalm 33:12 “Blessed or happy is the nation whose God is the Lord.”

“The duty and interest of the United States require that they should acknowledge the overruling providence of God.” James Madison

“May every citizen in the army and in the country have a proper sense of the Deity upon his mind and an impression of that declaration recorded in the Bible, ‘Them that honor me, I will honor.’” Samuel Adams

Why Christians MUST Pray and Vote Partisan to Prevent Government Persecution!

I hope I can keep this short since I can’t set at my computer for long. I’ve taken a hiatus from Monday Morning Blogs recently due to surgery on my lower left leg that isn’t healing well and is requiring wound care intervention. It’s especially painful when I sit with my leg down, so I have it propped up on a pillow on top of my office trashcan! Prayers for healing are appreciated since I’m scheduled for a hip replacement on June 3.

Okay enough about me. Let’s talk about the focus of this blog: Pray and Vote for Conservative Biblical Values!

As Christians, we must remain partisan because when the Democrats are in power they will silence Christians even to the point of prosecution. How can I say that? Well read on . . .

First Pray!

Since our country’s conception, America has been a praying nation. Even when King Charles was here last week and addressed the joint Congress, he acknowledged that America was founded as a Christian nation. We should never minimize, apologize, or take for granted this truth.

I hope you’ll see the new movie “A Great Awakening.” Even though there’s no evidence that Benjamin Franklin, one of the signers of the Constitution, ever became a Christian as hard as his dear friend Charles Whitfield pleaded with him to become one, Franklin understood the power of prayer and initiated prayer in the opening sessions of Congress, which continues today.

To kickoff America’s 250^th birthday, on April 18-25, 2026, nearly 500 Christian actors, ministries, speakers, pastors, athletes, congressmen and women, even President Trump from the Oval Office, participated in the reading of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation from the Museum of the Bible in Washington D. C. The Bible tells us that God’s Word never goes out void. I hope you heard some of it. I opened it on my phone, put my phone in my pocket, and listened to this amazing proclamation of the Bible over America.

“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Isaiah 55:11 (KJV)

May Is the Month of Prayer

Prayer is our language fellow Christians. We talk a lot to each other, but our call is to talk to our Great God. God is always waiting and listening to hear our voices rising to Him in praise and petition.

Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. Jer. 29:12

Put These Dates on Your Calendar!

The National Day of Prayer – May 7
Rededication of America – May 17 (This date is significant. Keep reading)

What is REDEDICATE 250?

“Rededicate 250: National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise, and Thanksgiving” is President Trump and the White House purposing America’s 250th celebration to honor our roots and humbly rededicate our nation back to God as when it was founded.

On May 17, 1776, the Second Continental Congress held a day of “prayer, fasting, and humiliation” just weeks before signing the Declaration of Independence and declaring independence from England on July 4th.

President Trump recognized this important heritage date and at the 74^th National Prayer Breakfast last February, he announced that on May 17, 2026, there will be a major prayer event held on the National Mall to “rededicate America as one nation under God.”

President Trump continued explaining that the 12-hour sacred dedication event promises that “In speech, song, and storytelling, we will bear witness to the extraordinary story of how God has powerfully and wonderfully shaped the United States of America — remembering the people, sacrifices, and defining moments in which God has powerfully manifested Himself in our history.”

Now, thanks to President Trump, exactly 250 years to the day, thousands of Americans will come together in our nation’s capital to give thanks for God’s blessings over the last 250 years—and to ask for his protection and guidance as we enter the next 250 years.

President Trump has invited Americans from across the country to come together on the National Mall on that day to pray, praise, and give thanks. During his announcement, he noted a spiritual renewal and rising church attendance in America. He praised this trend declaring, “To be a great nation…you have to have faith” and “you have to have God.”

President Trump continued, “Almost 250 years after our Founding Fathers took one of the greatest leaps of faith in human history…it reminds us that prayers strengthen, prayers heal, prayer empowers and prayer saves,” said President Trump.

“Quite simply, prayer is America’s superpower.” President Trump

While you might not be able to attend these prayer events in person, you can certainly put them on your calendar to watch and pray along too. After all, this is your country we’re celebrating. Our Founding Fathers saw God’s hand of mercy in giving us this great country and we can at least stop for a moment and say, “Thank you God for America our home!”

Why Do I Say Christians Must Be Partisan?

Do you think we would have any of these prayer celebrations at this momentous 250 years if a Democrat were President? If you’re honest, no matter what you might think of President Trump you have to answer, NO! The Democrats are not only anti-Christian, they’re also anti-America.

We would not have had the Bible read over the country and certainly a Democrat President wouldn’t have read 2 Chronicles 7:11-22 from the Oval Office like President Trump did, which includes the well-known verse:

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (Vs 14)

We would not have seen the White House organizing this Rededicate 250: National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise, and Thanksgiving on the National Mall, rededicating our country back to God. If Christians tried to organize it under a DEI Democrat Administration, there would’ve been many obstacles put in their path and much pushback.

How can I saw this you ask?

One of the first Executive Orders, President Trump signed was for his DOJ to investigate the persecution of Christians under the Biden Administration!

The investigation was a direct result of President Donald Trump’s executive order, Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias, which was designed to “immediately halt all forms of anti-Christian targeting and discrimination within the federal government, including at the DOJ.”

“It is the policy of the United States, and the purpose of this order, to protect the religious freedoms of Americans and end the anti-Christian weaponization of government,” the executive order stated. “The Founders established a Nation in which people were free to practice their faith without fear of discrimination or retaliation by their government.”

The resulting 565 page DOJ report released last week was staggering to everyone who saw it as the current acting Attorney General Todd Blanche revealed that a Department of Justice investigation uncovered a “Systematic culture of anti-Christian bias across federal agencies during the Biden Administration.“

The report details for example how the Biden-era FBI monitored Catholic priests, and the IRS denied tax-exempt status to a Christian organization based on its religious teachings because they said teaching from the Bible sounded too partisan towards the Republican party!

“What we found in that very deep, substantial report is it was much more than just a rogue agent. It was much more than just a field office or a prosecutor,” said Blanche.

“It was actually a systematic culture issue at the Department of Justice to target Christians, to target people based upon their religious beliefs.”

The findings, published by a Justice Department task force, argue the Biden administration [which we now know was whoever was in control of the autopen] exhibited a pattern of behavior that undermined religious liberty. According to a DOJ press release, the administration used regulatory means to strip protections from people of faith!

“President Biden pushed policies to eliminate statutory protections for religious Americans that interfered with his policy goals,” the DOJ report stated. “Although he failed to change federal law, under his direction, federal agencies used policy and regulatory means to accomplish the same goals.”

The report says the Biden administration labeled parental concerns at school boards as “threats,” called concerned parents terrorists, and dismissed federal workers’ religious concerns about vaccine mandates as “insincere” or “not religious.”

Another claim in the report states, “The Civil Rights Division under President Biden sidelined Christians in favor of preferred constituencies. It published materials suggesting that Christians could not be victims of religious discrimination, only other faith groups.”

The report also showed the Biden Administration went after pro-life individuals and made little to no attempt to prosecute violent attacks on pro-life centers.

President Trump is protecting the rights of Christians that were systematically and purposely stripped of their rights by the Democrat Biden Administration.

If a Democrat EVER gets back in the White House, I believe with the Democrats now cozying up to Communists and Islamists, Christian persecution and discrimination will escalate like we’ve never seen before in America.

There is nothing in the Democrat platform that honors God. NOTHING! Instead, it’s become a godless dehumanizing political power-hungry party, and the Bible is clear that good cannot compromise with evil. The Democrat driving force is “hate Trump” “hate his cabinet” “hate his followers and supporters” and even try to kill them!

There’s nothing in the Democrat platform that is good for God-fearing Americans or any American. At the State of the Union, we watched the Democrats refuse to stand up when asked if their responsibility was to protect Americans. Why would any Christian vote for them? Many are switching parties even in government positions. We can pray that even more will do so also.

So yes, we must be partisan and Vote! Vote! Vote for candidates that you’ve researched and trust. Then support them to win.

Not voting is agreeing to watch the collapse of the country you love and saying it’s okay for the Christian faith to be persecuted, marginalized, and replaced by Communism and Islam, not only for the rest of your life, but that of our children and grandchildren.

Not voting, is actually voting for the party that hates you because you believe in God and the Bible. Christianity is surrender to God’s control and Democrats dismiss and detest this. They want control and power all to themselves. They’re yelling, cussing, angry people who encourage violence.

The manifesto of the man who wanted to kill President Trump and as many of his cabinet as possible at the White House Correspondence Dinner sounded exactly like the Democrat’s and liberal media’s talking points.

Democrats and liberals are trying to instigate and radicalize their followers to do their dirty work. Even their so-called comedians think it’s funny to talk about President Trump’s death. I refuse to call these “jokes” because they’re not funny. They’re sadistic and the fact that people in their audience laugh proves my radicalization point.

We all have primary elections coming up in our states. Christians must vote!

We also must NOT lose the House and Senate in the midterms.

If the godless Democrats, who care more about illegals, trans rights, sexual perversion, indoctrinating children, DEI, abortion, protecting criminals, George Soros, socialism, communism, and Islam than they care about you the American citizen, ever get into power, the good that’s been done by the current administration will be abolished. Christians will be their target once again.

The Democrats have no qualms about using lawfare against anyone who gets in their way, even God. The 565-page report is proof.

Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me [Jesus], they will persecute you also. John 15:20

I’ve only listed a few of the findings proving the Biden Administration’s persecution of Christians. For more details DOJ Releases report detailing anti-Christian bias under Biden from the Christian Post

Easter Is the Perfect Time to Share Your Testimony!

As I was thinking about how to honor Jesus this Holy Week prior to Easter, the Lord clearly told me it’s by encouraging my readers to not only share the reason for Easter, but also what Easter means to each of us personally. Our born-again testimony.

¹⁰Then I heard a loud voice shouting across the heavens,

“It has come at last—
    salvation and power
and the Kingdom of our God,
    and the authority of his Christ.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters
    has been thrown down to earth—
the one who accuses them
    before our God day and night.
¹¹And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb
    and by their testimony.
And they did not love their lives so much
    that they were afraid to die. Revelation 12:10-11

Ten times in the Book of Revelation, John refers to the importance and power of our testimony. In 1 John 5:11, John explains our testimony: “And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.”

I have some questions for you to consider . . .

–When was the last time you shared your testimony?

–How did surrendering your life to Jesus change your life?

–What’s your born-again experience?

–What sets our faith in Jesus Christ apart from any other religion in the world?

–What does the cross and resurrection mean to each of you personally?

Why Must You Be Born Again to Become a Christian?

Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.”

“How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”

⁵Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. ⁶Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. ⁷You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’ ⁸The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

⁹“How can this be?” Nicodemus asked.

¹⁰“You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and do you not understand these things? ¹¹Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony.” John 3:3-10

¹¹Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. ¹²I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things? ¹³No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven—the Son of Man. ¹⁴Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, ¹⁵that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.” John 3:11-15.

Next, we have the verse so many of us have memorized since childhood.

¹⁶For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. ¹⁷For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. ¹⁸Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. John 3:16-18

Those of us who are born again can become complacent about the power of our testimony. As Revelation 2:4 warns, we’ve forgotten our first love when we were so excited to tell everyone about the most important thing that’s ever happened in our life. Yes, above marriage, becoming parents, fame, fortune, position, possessions . . . Nothing compares to salvation and eternal life. Yet, it’s often our best-kept secret.

Just like Nicodemus, people may find it hard to believe our born-again testimony, but it should never mean we don’t tell it anyway. It also means that everyone who calls themselves a Christian must have a testimony.

–No one is a Christian since birth.

–No one becomes a Christian because they were born into a Christian home or had Christian parents.

–Being baptized doesn’t make you a Christian.

–Going to church every Sunday, doesn’t make you a Christian.

–Serving in Christian ministry, singing in the choir, fasting, reading the Bible every day, while all good things, does NOT make you a Christian.

–Believing in Jesus doesn’t make you a Christian. Even Satan believes in Jesus.

—Becoming a Christian means being born-again.

—Accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior believing that He died on the Cross and rose in three days to offer eternal life to everyone who believes and asks for forgiveness of their sins is a free will spiritual act of surrender, repentance, and forgiveness that only Jesus offers. No one can make this decision for you, and no one can force you to make it.

–Becoming a Christian is between the Lord and you.

—When you surrender your life and heart to Jesus, the Holy Spirit comes into your heart, mind, and soul. You’re supernaturally born again!

You might’ve asked Jesus to come into your heart in the silence of your home or in a stadium full of people. Maybe praying for salvation in church or with a relative, friend or mentor, or watching a sermon on television or reading a tract or the Bible. It doesn’t matter where you are or whether someone led you in a prayer.

For some people this is a quiet sacred moment, and others feel the ground moving under their feet. Some will weep. Some will laugh. Some may break out into song. Some know a change took place, but there wasn’t lightening or a noticeable outward sign, it was all within your spirit. That’s because God made us each unique with different personalities and responses, but every Christian has a testimony of accepting Jesus’ free invitation of salvation.

⁵Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”

⁶Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. ⁷If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.” John 14:5-6

My Born Again Testimony

Every time I speak at a conference or women’s retreat, I share my testimony. I also have “My Testimony” on my website with the heading “Born Again” and a picture of the summer camp I was at when I gave my life to Christ.

Like many of you, I also experienced backsliding years. I share that story on my website also and in many of my books of rededicating my life to Christ and being called into full-time ministry and writing.

Share Your Story—Make It Your Testimony

In Forsaken God? Remembering the Goodness of God Our Culture Has Forgotten, I stress the importance of remembering and sharing our testimony. Here are a few excerpts from chapter Twenty-Three, “Remember His Commission.”

“Your spiritual journey is your testimony that describes your life before you turned it over—or returned—to God and how you’ve transformed into a new creation in Christ.”

“You may not think you have a testimony if you’ve been a Christian most of your life and life has gone smoothly for you. Well, that smooth life didn’t just happen. God has been walking beside you guiding your life every step of the way. That’s your testimony to others who worry about losing something by turning their lives over to God. You are a living example of how good God really is!

But if you have a hidden past you’ve been too embarrassed to talk about, now is the time to deal with those buried hurts and hang-ups. . . God can use every experience for good, but not if we don’t let him. The Bible tells us “the wages of sin is death” (Rom. 6:23), so hidden sin holds us in a death grip that silently destroys us spiritually, and often physically, from the inside out. Exposed sin loses its power. We don’t have to waste energy and emotion worrying about others discovering our past. We can ‘thank God we’ve started listening to a new master, one whose commands set us free to live openly in his freedom’ (personalized from Rom. 6:18 The Message).

Think back to an experience where you know it had to be God who rescued you and how you might make that a testimony of his goodness . . .Every time you give God the glory for something in your life, you testify to God’s goodness. Your salvation testimony shares your life before Jesus, how he changed your heart, and how he spiritually saved your life. God has given you a story to share for his glory, so seize every opportunity to praise him and encourage others. I like this saying: sometimes God redeems your story by surrounding you with people who need to hear your past so it doesn’t become their future. When we don’t share our story, we don’t share his story.

You must be willing to share how God helped you through difficult times, and that requires vulnerability, approachability, and responsibility. It’s your witness to his faithfulness. It’s the opportunity to give purpose to a crisis. Otherwise, you might spend your life feeling sorry for yourself—living as a victim instead of victorious. Revealing is the first step to healing.

Your story becomes your testimony when the focus is on God and not on you. Don’t tell graphic details of anything to make someone else or you uncomfortable. It’s not a tell-all, and it’s not a time to tell someone else’s story. Stick to details that pertain to you. Don’t dramatize how bad you were; characterize how good God is!

If you haven’t written out your spiritual testimony here are some tips. Think of it in five parts:

Your life before Jesus.
How, when, why you realized you needed a Savior.
Making the commitment, or recommitment, and surrendering your life to Jesus.
The change in your life since becoming a Christian.
What being a Christian means to you.

In Psalm 71:15, the psalmist admits he’s not sure if what he says will help, but he’ll tell his story and let God choose how to use it: “My mouth will tell of your righteous deeds, of your saving acts all day long—though I know not how to relate them all.” Some people may reject or rebuff your testimony. That’s not a sign to stop telling it; you plant a seed, and God does the watering. Peter reminds us always to be ready to share our testimony.

But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, ¹⁶keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. 1 Peter 3:15-16

So don’t worry about how God will use your testimony, or how someone will receive it. Just be willing to speak up when you feel the prompting of the Holy Spirit, and He’ll use it for God’s purpose. Sometimes it will be in a spiritual setting, other times when you least expect it. Be ready to share with or within . . .

Your Testimony Is Your Witness That Jesus Christ Lives!

Where does God want you to share your testimony this Easter, or anytime, and who needs to hear it?

Who needs to know the reason for your hope?

If you’re reading this blog and have never asked Jesus to come into your heart and been born again, here’s a prayer to pray if you’re ready now.

Salvation Prayer

Dear Jesus, I know I have sinned in my life and I want to tell you how sorry I am and I want to repent and change my ways. I ask you now to forgive me and cleanse me of those sins. Jesus, I want you to come into my heart and take residence there. I believe you are the Son of God and that you died on the cross to pay the price for my sins and then rose again in three days to offer me eternal life. Please fill me with the Holy Spirit and your love. Lord, I give you my life—make me a new creation in you. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

If you prayed the Salvation Prayer: Welcome to the family of God! God just wiped away your past sins and gave you a clean slate. You have been born again into a new life in Christ. Congratulations! Celebrate and tell others about the decision you just made to become a follower of Jesus Christ—it’s your testimony. You’re ready to grow and mature spiritually. Happy first Easter as a new believer.

To all my readers I leave with you this message from the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 1:4-9:

I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. ⁵For in him you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge— ⁶God thus confirming our testimony about Christ among you. ⁷Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. ⁸He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Note: As I’m writing this blog on Sunday 3/29/2026, President Trump has released a copy of a letter sent to him by Reverend Franklin Graham. I share it below as confirmation of everything I’ve written in this blog about how we become Christians.

In my blog last week, We’re One Nation Under God NOT Allah!, I said that the Christian faith is the only religion with a living spiritual Savior who died and rose again to offer us eternal life with Him. Jesus lives within the heart and soul of every Christian believer!

We’re One Nation Under God NOT Allah!

This might be my most important blog so far in 2026! I hope you’ll read and share. Ignorance of what’s happening in our culture today is not bliss it’s foolish!

“My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.” Hosea 4:6

I was shocked when I saw on Tucker Carlson’s Facebook page what he posted from his podcast monologue on March 17. “If you’re having trouble remembering the last time we killed a religious leader, it’s because we haven’t killed any religious leaders, at least not openly, because we don’t want to start religious wars, because they’re hard to fight and very hard to resolve.”—Tucker Carlson

Tucker was calling the brutal tyrannical Ayatollah who killed Americans and thousands of his own people simply a “religious leader!” Iranian “religious leaders” just publicly hung a nineteen-year-old Iranian Wrestling Olympian and two other teenagers who dared protest the current regime. That doesn’t sound “religious.” That’s barbaric tyranny!

Here was my comment on Tucker’s Facebook post:
“He’s calling the man who killed and tortured thousands of his own people and wants to do the same to Americans a “religious leader”? Seriously?? Islam is NOT a religion it’s a tyrannical death cult ideology. You would think someone like Tucker would know the difference between a religious leader and a pathological tyrannical killer.”—Janet Thompson

Tucker Carlson recently told the story of having a nightmare where he struggled with a monster in his sleep and woke up with scratch marks on his body. I’m wondering if he wasn’t struggling with a demon and the demon won. Tucker has been off the rails on Israel and Iran along with many other topics. This blog is not about Tucker, but if a once intelligent, investigative journalist that many of us admired when he was on FOX News could be so deceived, it’s no wonder that many Americans are also.

See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual force of this world rather than on Christ. Col. 2:8

New Yorkers who voted for a Muslim Islamist Communist are paying the price for their deception.

There are so many things I’m learning from my study of this false “religion” and its followers’ goal of making Islam not simply the dominate religion in the world, but the dominate government!

That’s the irony of the Biden Administration so hungry for power that they would let in millions of undocumented Islamists into the country thinking that they would all vote Democrat. They might actually do that in the beginning, but only long enough to get themselves into power and then they would dismiss all the ignorant Democrats who won’t know what hit them . . . maybe even literally.

What Democrats and Islam have in common right now is that both reject God and His Son Jesus Christ. The left wants to strip Americans’ identity by telling them you can be your own god and be whatever you want to call yourself. You want to be a woman, put on makeup and a dress and invade women’s sports. You want to be a cat. Put on a tale and pee in a litterbox.

The left’s power comes from breaking Americans into adversarial identity groups that go to war against each other. Whites. BLM. Jews. Palestinians. White liberal women. Suburban women. Gays. Trans. Evangelicals. “Progressive Christians.” On and on . . .

Disunity instead of unity.

When everyone can be your own god, Islam fills the gap. That’s why Islam is partnering with the left’s godless progressive liberal platform and not the conservative right which believes we are a country founded on Judeo/Christian values. The left and Islam both reject this premise.

In last week’s blog, FlashPoint Where Faith Meets Current Events, I pointed out that Democrats are embracing an unlikely partnership with Islam to try to block Christians’ political influence. Another unusual partnership “Queers for Palestine” are opposing twin demonic spirits. They link up around their mutual hate for God and the West with the same goal of destroying Judeo/Christian values. This draws two forces together that have nothing in common. In Palestine and Iran, the queers would be thrown off buildings, and they still will be when Islam is finished getting their votes.

Because of this alliance, President Trump is right when he says after the “death of Iran,” the Democrat party is America’s “greatest enemy.”

Islam Is NOT a Religion. It’s a Death Cult!

In the early 7th century CE, Islam was founded by Muhammed ibn Abdullah, a pedophile who at age 54 married a six-year-old and consummated the marriage when she was nine! He had eleven wives and dozens of concubines. He supposedly was a “prophet” who received divine revelations that became the Qur’an. Reading the Qur’an, that “divine revelation” is obviously from Satan.

Any pseudo religion founded and spearheaded by a mere person is a cult, not a “religion.” Islam is a death cult that kills its own people and the “infidels” who don’t succumb to Islam. Muhammed died. Jesus Christ died, rose again three days later, and lives today to save people from eternal death.

Not every Muslim is radical, but all Islam is radical. Islam is incompatible with the West. There’s no “moderate Islam.” The Qur’an is radical.

“There is no radical Islam—Islam is radical.”—Gene Bailey, FlashPoint

Islam is 50 years into a 100-year plan to take over the world.

Islam is a political ideology masquerading as a religion. They hate the Jews because they are proof that God exists which is why Jews come under attack so often. Islam’s goal is to first takeover Israel the “little Satan” and then America the “big Satan.”

Iran isn’t just the center of a nuclear threat; it’s also the center of Islamic terrorism. President Trump working with Israel to dismantle the Islamic regime is protecting America from physical and governmental threats from the outside. But thanks to Biden, there are Islamists inside America and sleeper cells just waiting to be detonated.

Before the takeover by Islamists, Iran was a free democratic nation. A tragic example of what happens when citizens don’t recognize the enemy from within as Texas state representative Nate Schatzline points out in the above meme.

Islam’s goal right now is to get 10% of our population radicalized. Their biggest test targets are Texas and California. In Texas alone, there are 48 new mosques in the last two years and they’re trying to build self-contained Islamic communities. Texas just had to put on the ballot that Sharia Law isn’t allowed in Texas, but there are states like Minnesota where it’s already happening. Even here in Idaho, we passed a law against Sharia Law in our red state.

The top 10 Muslim populated states are New York, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Texas, Michigan, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. Check out your state here.

Mosques aren’t churches like we know church. They are command infiltration centers preparing for war against the innocents in our country. You, me, and our families. They actually store their arms and ammunitions in the mosques and brag about how many church buildings they’ve bought and turned into mosques to worship Allah, not God.

They are literally Islamic Nationalists with the goal of Islam overtaking and ruling America. Yet, the Democrats call us Christian Nationalist because we want a country that honors the Constitution and God. We’re not looking to make America a theocracy, but Islam is focused on doing exactly that only their god is Allah and they want to replace the Constitution with Sharia Law.

The Democrats Are Actually Helping Islam!

Pay attention to how many Muslims are running for office as “Democrats.” In the November 7, 2025, election, 42 Muslims were elected to public office! The fake news celebrated this as “Political inclusion . . . The rising participation of Muslims in politics represents a shift from marginalization to empowerment, signaling a new chapter in America’s democratic story.”

That should alarm the reader who understands the goal of Islam in America.

Islam is an Arabic word that does not mean peace it means submit and only naive or uniformed pastors, Christians, and politicians would not know this. There’s only peace in Islam after everyone submits to Islam’s empowerment.

Only one faction of Islam is religious. They have no separation of church and government. The “church” is the government, and Iran is a perfect example. That’s why Tucker’s comments about a theocratic militant regime that’s intertwined into every aspect of life was so ludicrous. Dare I say, ignorant.

Islam is diametrically opposed to our Constitution and to Christianity. Islam cannot co-exist with either one. Muslims will use parts of our Constitution like “freedom of religion” and pretend to be a religion to advance their cause. They will even pretend and lie to agree with our Constitution until they get into power. Mamdani is a perfect example.

“Holy Lying” or “Sacred Deceit” is called “Taquia” in Islam. No matter how smooth and nice they might sound, the Qur’an tells them lying to infidels (us) is permissible to achieve the goals of Islam. So everything Mamdani, or any Muslim candidate, says in their campaigns are lies masking their intentions. They feel no guilt, remorse, or need to apologize. You can’t believe anything they say!

The Democrats are the same. Look at Virginia Governor Spanberger who ran as a moderate and no sooner did she take the oath then she turned hard left. That’s why Islam feels comfortable partnering with Democrats . . . for now until Islam doesn’t need them anymore.

What legitimate “religion” honors lying to achieve goals instead of telling the truth? That has other gods besides The God? That murders anyone who doesn’t submit to their beliefs? Islam is diametrically opposed to Christianity and the Constitution.

How Islam Gains Power

There are three phases to Islamic takeover, which you can readily see is already happening in Egypt, European countries, and Australia. America is next.

Claim minority status.
Claim grievances.
Cry victim. You need to help us because we’re being disadvantaged in some way. Think Muslim Illhan Omar and the Somalis.

Then they take power over the jurisdiction. When they infiltrate and grow in all areas from schools, justice /law system, business, commerce, medical field, politics, government. . . they soon dominate and then claim majority status.

Muslims: Immigrate. Agitate. Infiltrate. Dominate.

Ethnic Hispanics are turning to Islam in TX and CA. Islam gives them license over the “white man.” Islam has prayer beads and honors Mary, which is familiar to Catholics who often haven’t read the Bible so they’re ripe to read the Qur’an. Islam does not recognize or believe in Jesus.

Christians Must Be Equipped with the Truth!

Pulpits need to present the truth that there is only One God. The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. His name is Yahweh. If you ask Muslims, “What’s the name of your God?” They answer, “Allah,” which is god in Arabic. They don’t know who their god is.

”It’s not a religion, but a political system run by terrorists. It is designed to overtake and control every other civilization.”—Terri Bailey FlashPoint

We need pastors and Christians walking in courage who aren’t afraid to talk about our role as Christians in today’s dangerous culture. Islam is strong in their evil intensions. Weak Christianity will fall and fail. Paul warned there would be those who talk like us, sound like us, but they’re weak and deny the power we have in Christ. No operational Holy Spirit in their life.

The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. ²Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 1 Tim. 4:1-2

If anyone teaches otherwise and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, ⁴they are conceited and understand nothing. They have an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions ⁵and constant friction between people of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. 1 Tim. 3-5

We can’t go to church without intending to do what we hear. Pray before church and when reading your Bible, “Lord speak to me.” Go to church expecting to hear God. Uncompromised. Leave with a winsome boldness for sharing and living the Truth to overcome the lies of the world.

God will use the foolish things of the world to shame the wise.

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. 1 Cor. 1:27

The church is where the battlefield begins. Christians must remember that we serve God alone. We can’t mix with or “tolerate” other beliefs and religions that want to destroy Christianity and our country. Satan puts on many faces but his main goal is always to steal, kill, and destroy. We must remain vigilant and wise.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10

I’ve given you a lot of information. Not to scare you, but to make you vigilant and wise. This is a spiritual battle and if you live by the Holy Spirit you are in the battle, whether you want to or not. We fight this battle not for ourselves but for our children and grandchildren. (Ephesians 6:10-18)

After 47 Years of Bondage, God Is Using Our 47th President Prophetically in Iran!

Before awakening Saturday morning to learn that America and Israel had joined forces to attack Iran, I’d planned to write about my response to the State of the Union (SOTU), but that almost seems like old news now. However, I understand why President Trump waited until after the SOTU before launching this Iranian attack because he wanted the American public to observe a few things first.

Who would stand with him in Operation Epic Fury and who would immediately object? Actually, who would object to anything he does or says?

During the SOTU, with few exceptions, the Democrats sat on their hands with scowls on their faces, some even yelling and harassing him as if they were at a protest rally. Democrats who abdicated their congressional duty by boycotting his speech held a bizarre event with jungle posters, furies, profanity-laced rappers and speakers, disgraced and fired former newscasters, and a Trump-hating fowl-mouthed washed-up actor. They think that F-ing everything is going to win them votes instead of cringes and repulsion.

For those who did attend SOTU, we saw the stark contrast between Republicans and Democrats.

A tale of two different countries. Two different sets of morals and values. Good vs. evil!

Republicans: “USA, USA, USA!” Democrats: “KKK, KKK, KKK!”
Republicans stood and clapped for American families. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for combat veterans. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for strong borders. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for secure elections. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for Angel Families. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for No Tax on Tips, Overtime, or Social Security. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for Parental Rights. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood and clapped for a 5 year-old severely injured by an illegal with a commercial truck license. Democrats sat and sulked as she smiles and waves.
Republicans stood and clapped for the crying parents of Iryna Zarutska murdered by a career criminal. Democrats sat and sulked.
Republicans stood for a woman whose school & doctors pushed gender transition on her behind her parents’ back. Democrats ignored her as a man dressed like a woman sat amongst them.

The final Trump zinger: “Stand if you agree: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”

Republicans jumped to their feet whistling and applauding loudly.

In front of millions watching, Congressional Democrats remained seated and scowling.

Trump rightfully called the Democrats “Crazy” and chastised, “You should be ashamed of yourselves.”

So is it any surprise that in the dark of night, 10 minutes before President Donald Trump even announced that the U.S. and Israel had attacked Iran, a network of U.S. nonprofits aligned with China, Russia, and Tehran swung into action. Even as the initial bombs were dropping, they activated foot soldiers to hit America’s streets with ready-made anti-U.S. talking points signs.

Why China and Russia sponsoring the protests? Todd Starnes answered that question well:

“Do you understand the significance of what is happening in world affairs right now? This was never just about Iran. This was about Russia and China – and putting both of those nations on their backs on the global stage. This was about protecting the American people from a nuclear Iran. This was about protecting our great ally from being annihilated. And if President Trump succeeds in defeating Iran, this will be the greatest foreign policy achievement in modern political history.”

What Does the Bible Say About America’s Operation Epic Fury and Israel’s Roaring Lion?

The following is by Facebook friend Jan Blount Martin shared with permission.

“If you’re criticizing the fact that the United States and Israel have joined together to take down the regime in Iran, you are biblically illiterate.

The place “Israel” was given to the Jewish people as their nation . . . If you think God has forsaken the Jewish people because they are not “religious” as they once were, you are again, biblically illiterate. The number of times the Jewish people disappointed God because of their decisions to wander away from him are many, yet God never broke covenant with them because his covenant with them was everlasting and God does not break his covenants.

The evidence that he did not break covenant with them was that in spite of the many times that they forsook him, he still sent his son to be their Messiah as He had promised them, which was the very foundation of his covenant with them. And for the record, Christians did not replace the Jews, but are grafted in to God’s covenant with the Jews because of what Jesus did on the cross.

Too many people who are spewing their hate for Israel, are mistaking a place with a people. I am an American born and raised, and who is running my government does not define me. America is a place but Americans are people. Israel is a place but Israelis are a people who are descendants of Jacob and the 12 tribes which began with Jacob‘s 12 sons. Jacob was not a place. He was a person who was renamed Israel.

God loves and protects his children, regardless of where they live or who their government is. Iran is a threat to us all. They hate Jews and Christians alike. America is considered a Christian nation just as Israel is considered a Jewish nation, and Iran is a threat to us both.

I have said all of this to say; God bless President Trump for being willing to take action with Israel to take down the biggest terrorist regime in the world! May God bless and protect our military troops, and may we as Americans support and honor those willing to serve.”

‘47’ Helps Free Iran After 47 Years!

Iran was biblically and historically Persia until 1935 when the name was changed in an effort to modernize the country and promote a unified sense of pride among its citizens. In 1979, Iran underwent an oppressive Islamic regime revolution, which has held power for 47 years!

President Trump is now our 47^th President. He was also our 45^th President. He tried to become our 46.^th Many of us lamented that election was stolen, but it’s evident today that God had a different plan for President Trump for such a time as this.

Whether or not you like President Trump is irrelevant to biblical and historical prophecy.

In Isaiah 45, God calls pagan political leader Cyrus, the King of Persia, to let the Jews return from Babylonian exile and rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem, earning Cyrus a unique status as a divinely appointed liberator in Jewish tradition.

When Trump became the 45th president in the 2016 election, many people saw the parallel between him and Cyrus. Trump did what many previous Presidents promised but never did. On December 6, 2017, he relocated the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and America recognized Jerusalem as the capital city of the State of Israel!

Today, as the 47^th President, Trump is working with Israel to free Iran from 47 years of Islamic tyranny. Lisa Daftari, an Iranian American, describes the past 47 years after Iran’s Islamic Revolution overthrew the U.S. backed Shah in 1979:

“Let me be very clear: America did not start a war with the Islamic Republic. The regime declared war on us [America] in 1979, when militants stormed our embassy in Tehran, seized American diplomats, and held 52 of them hostage for 444 days. Since then, the regime and its proxies have targeted our service members, our diplomats, and our partners across the region through terrorism, rocket and drone attacks, and assassination plots.

They have built and directed a vast network of militias and terrorist organizations that have attacked U.S. forces and allies in Lebanon, Iraq, the Persian Gulf, and beyond, and they continue to explore options for asymmetric attacks, including the potential use of covert operatives and sleeper cells right here against Americans at home and abroad. This has been the regime’s established playbook for nearly 50 years; it’s just that most American presidents decided to ignore or in some cases, fuel, this threat.

So no, President Trump did not ‘start’ a war with Iran’s regime. Together with Prime Minister Netanyahu, he made the difficult and consequential decision to confront and, ultimately, end it. And yes, the Iranian people, the broader Middle East, and we Americans will be safer for generations for it.”

Following is a personal testimony of someone who witnessed the takeover of Iran by Tehran’s Islamic Republic regime:

“47 years ago, I stood at a window in Tehran as a 3-year-old boy, smelling burning tires and hearing the chants that would steal my country. I didn’t have words for what was happening. Today, I am watching smoke rise over the same city — but this time the smoke is not the end of Iran. It is, God willing, the beginning of her resurrection.

Several weeks ago, I wrote that the fever of 1979 was finally breaking. I never imagined I would wake up to see that fever confronted so directly. Israel — with the clear support of the United States — has launched a preemptive strike deep into Tehran and against the regime’s military machinery. Explosions in the capital. Military targets hit. The IRGC’s aura of invincibility, already cracked, is shattering in real time.

I do not celebrate war. No decent person does. What I celebrate — what millions of Iranians inside the country and in the diaspora have prayed for in secret for decades — is the possibility that a regime which has no right to exist may finally be forced to go.

This is the same regime that:

– Armed and cheered the October 7 massacre against Israel for no reason other than pure genocidal hatred.

– Murdered tens of thousands of its own sons and daughters who dared to walk peacefully in the streets demanding the most basic freedoms.

– Gouges out the eyes of young women for the “crime” of wearing makeup.

– Hangs teenagers from cranes for posting a tweet.

– Exports terror, poverty, and darkness to every corner it can reach including the U.S.

No nation, no people, should have to live under that. Not Israelis. Not Americans. Not Lebanese. Not Syrians. And certainly not Iranians.

I am a physician who has spent his life trying to heal bodies and a son of Iran who has spent his life mourning a stolen homeland. What we are witnessing is not aggression — it is surgery. Painful, necessary surgery to remove a tumor that has metastasized for 47 years. The tumor is the Islamic Republic that has hijacked Iran.

To the brave pilots and special operators of the Israeli Air Force and the men and women of the United States military now carrying out this mission: I pray for you with everything I have.

May God shield you from harm. May every missile find its target and every soldier return home safely to the families who love them. You are not invaders. You are the answer to the prayers of millions who have whispered “enough” in the dark since 1979. You are giving our friends the chance to breathe free air again. The entire region will owe you a peace we have not known in my lifetime.

To my fellow Iranians watching from inside the country right now, heart pounding, maybe hiding in basements or on rooftops: Hold on. The end is clearer than it has ever been. The regime’s fear is real. Their eyes — those same eyes that once stared down at us with absolute power — now show something they haven’t shown in decades: panic. The math has changed. The window of 1979 is finally closing.

To the little three-year-old boy I once was — and to every little boy and girl in Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz, and Tabriz today who hears explosions instead of lullabies: This time the sounds are not the closing of a door. They are the opening of one.

The road ahead will not be easy. Transitions never are. But the direction is unmistakable. A secular, prosperous, free Iran is no longer a dream — it is becoming an inevitability.

I have lived the stolen life so that others might not have to. Today, for the first time in 47 years, I allow myself to believe that the stealing is almost over.

Thank you, Israel. Thank you, America. The Iranian people — the real Iran — will never forget.

The fever is breaking.

The dawn of 2026 is here.

And this time, the light wins.“– Testimony written by Houmand David Hemmati, MD, PHD

Randy Kay Ministries encourages: “But hear me: God is not surprised. This isn’t a time for politics, but it is a time to turn your life over to Jesus because He’s definitely not surprised with what’s happening right now and it will all work out to His glory either here or in eternity.

God’s not wringing His hands in Heaven. He told us these things would happen. Jesus Himself said in Luke 21:28: ‘When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.’

This is not the time to cower. This is the time to rise and stand up for Jesus.”

Amen!

Which brings me back to the State of the Union when President Trump asked everyone in the room to stand if you believe that the government’s first duty is to protect American citizens, not illegals and the Democrats stayed seated. Now, we’re watching in real time, the majority of Democrats criticizing President Trump’s actions to protect America from Iranian nuclear obliteration. Putting partisan politics over our protection, Democrats would rather let the Iranian tyrannical regime nuke Israel, “the little Satan,” and then come for America “the big Satan!”

Is that who you want governing America? If the Democrats ever get back in power again, they will undo all the good the Trump Administration has done to protect us from evil within and outside our borders.

Iranian-American Democrat Moj Mahdara told Dana Bash on CNN about the freeing of Iran: “This will be like ending the Soviet Union, the Berlin Wall.” She continued, “This is a transformational moment for humankind, for security, and as an American, as an American, this is in our interest to complete it. So, I am a Democrat, I have been a huge Democrat. I am incredibly disappointed with my party. I do not see myself in them in this moment,” she added.

So, I Janet am asking, even if you’re a Democrat like Moj Mahdara and it goes against your party, will you stand up for protecting America and God’s chosen people in Israel and freeing the Iranian people?

Next, I’m asking will you stand up unashamedly for Jesus in the public square, in your family, in your workplace, everywhere and anywhere God takes you outside the church walls?

I pray your answer is, “Of course!” Because voting biblically and living biblically is how we’re called to occupy until Christ returns for His church and it seems very clear that could be in some of your lifetimes . . . maybe even in mine!

Pray for peace in Jerusalem. May all who love this city prosper. Ps. 122:6 NLT

A time for war and a time for peace. Ecc. 3:8 NLT

“This isn’t just a political shift. This is prophecy colliding with time. The veils are lifting. The trumpets are sounding. The era of fear is over, and the era of the Liberator has begun.

Bondage broken. Destiny reclaimed. History is ROARING.” –Afshine Emrani

Come, everyone! Clap your hands!
    Shout to God with joyful praise!
²For the Lord Most High is awesome.
    He is the great King of all the earth.
³He subdues the nations before us,
    putting our enemies beneath our feet.
⁷For God is the King over all the earth.
    Praise him with a psalm.
⁸God reigns above the nations,
    sitting on his holy throne.
⁹The rulers of the world have gathered together
    with the people of the God of Abraham. Psalm 47:1-3, 7-9

Please leave a comment here.

PS I’m sorry for the length today. This is such an historically biblical time and there’s so much to say about it. Thank you for reading to the end.

The Devil Always Reveals What He’s Afraid Of!

On November 8, 2021, I wrote a blog, “They’re Coming for Our Children.”

Well, “they’re” still coming for our children.

Who are the “they”?

Liberal left Democrats . . .

Legislators. Congressional representatives. Governors. Sexual perverts. Rainbow, Trans, Drag cults. Sexual ideology (I don’t even want to honor it here with their initials). Woke. DEI. Schools. Teachers Union. Some teachers. Medical professionals. Surgeons. Hospitals. Doctors. Judges. Islamists. Socialists. Atheists. Liberal media. Sex traffickers. Perverts. Radical activists.

They are knowingly, or maybe unknowingly, the devil’s pawns.

They’ve become disciples of demonism.

They’re advancing the devil’s agenda to destroy the minds and morals of pliable young children.

They claim to want accountability for the Epstein files, while thousands of unaccompanied children were trafficked over the border and lost during the Biden administration!

They campaign for the murder of children in the womb up through birth and babies surviving botched abortions are by law left to die in states like Oregon!

They stump for the horrific sexual mutilation of children by the medical profession and in San Diego last week a judge literally forced a hospital to keep mutilating and destroying children’s lives. The epitome of demonism.

They want young school age children exposed to X-rated books as young as kindergarten. A teacher in Nashville who didn’t want to read a mandatory “language arts curriculum” book about same-sex marriage to his first-grade class was reassigned to a lab position, even though he asked for a religious exemption which was denied.

“The principal indicated that the belief in same-sex marriage is so fundamental to the language arts unit that Mr. Rivera could not possibly be permitted to teach in any portion of the unit, and therefore had to be removed from the first-grade classroom,” according to First Liberty who represented the teacher.

In Florida, a school board voted to keep a graphic animal sex book on school library shelves and there are so many other examples of this in school libraries.

How does any Christian teacher teach today without violating their Christian beliefs?

You’ve probably seen disgusting video clips of gay and trans crossdressing teachers bragging about how they discuss their sexual preferences and liberal Trump-hating political beliefs with their young classes. Is DEI forcing schools to hire these radical teachers?

CBN News broke the story about Secretary of War Pete Hegseth firing a FT. Bragg teacher who identifies as a “trans wolf” with the name ‘Lilith Deathhowl.’ Parents had been upset since early 2025 that administrators hadn’t taken action to remove the teacher after he engaged in “disturbing behavior” that involved dressing in feminine clothing in class, as well as wearing a dog collar with fetish tags and an animal tail.

A letter from Liberty Counsel, which had been calling on the Department of Defense Education Activity to remove the teacher from the classroom, reported that the teacher had involved children in his sexual fetishes by:

telling students he turns into a “wolf” at night – his fetish animal;
directing them to howl like wolves;
requiring them to call him by some of his online wolf character names;
requiring his students to address him by inaccurate female names and pronouns;
and telling the children he is “actually a woman” who “likes boys.”

Parents reported that their children felt scared and anxious after the teacher flaunted his sexualized persona. One mother told Liberty Counsel that her daughter expressed fear, saying, “Mommy, I’m scared he’s going to come eat me,” referring to statements the teacher made about turning into a wolf at night.

School principals and teachers are encouraging children to walk out of school and become anarchists protesting ICE law enforcement.

Teachers can’t talk about Jesus; but they can talk about perverted sex, fetishes, and politics to groom young children?!

Why Are Our Children Under Attack By Satan?

Answer: The devil hates God and children are created in God’s image. Christian families have the potential to produce little Christians, which Satan hates.

The devil hates school choice!

The devil is afraid the young are going to rise up and be a source of revival and his rival in America.

So he’s killing them through abortion or drugs.

Or destroying their bodies and minds with sexual identity confusion, fetishes, hormones, and mutilation surgeries.

Addiction to electronics and social media.

Radicalizing them to acts of violence, where they’re often killed.

Suicide.

Whether a Christian or not, discerning people know that a young child who isn’t old enough to live on their own, drive, buy alcohol, fill a prescription, even buy aspirin, vote, or get a tattoo or their ears pierced without parental permission, shouldn’t make decisions that medically and physically alter their bodies and reproduction capabilities for life.

Yet the rainbow mafia, trans lobbyists, and advocates have convinced the left to champion not only tolerance of trans ideology, but encouraging and in some cases legally forcing, parents to let their children be castrated and mutilated.

Big medicine saw the value of having a patient for life knowing that biologically a man cannot become a woman or vice versa no matter how many body parts you cut off or how many hormones you drug them with.

God made us either a man or woman for life, but many people bought into the devil’s lie and used children as a demonic experiment that has destroyed the lives of millions of children, some of whom are now old enough to realize the damage they were allowed to do to their body and are winning malpractice lawsuits.

That’s a wakeup call to the medical cash cow. Instead of raking in money for mutilating children, they’re now forced to pay. Money can never replace what these children have lost.

Even the Plastic Surgeons Association is admitting that surgically mutilating children is a horrendous practice. The AMA also issued a statement recommending these surgeries be deferred until adulthood, but hopefully they too will adhere to President Trump’s executive order when he first took office to stop this medical malpractice on innocent children and fearmongering their parents into compliance.

A plastic surgeon who trained at a major Manhattan hospital is now apologizing for failing to “speak up” after witnessing minors as young as 13 undergo “irreversible” gender surgeries.

“As a father to three young children and as a physician who took an oath to do no harm, I failed to speak up, and I just want to thank President Trump for having more clarity on this,” Dr. Ira Savetsky said on “Fox & Friends.”

Now he’s speaking up because the hospital he works at after pressure from President Trump’s threat to cut off funds is discontinuing their “Transgender Youth Health Program.”

The doctor’s defense for not speaking up sooner: “You work so hard to get there… you don’t want to make waves.”

Savetsky now questions the pressure families receive when their child questions their gender. “I can only imagine what the parents were going through. I mean, they’re told that their child is going to kill themselves if they don’t have these surgeries. They’re pressured, and what are you supposed to do? You’ve dropped everything to do the right thing for your child, and I think that, unfortunately, there was a lot of financial motivation with these institutions.”

Dr. Savestsky knew transgender surgeries on children was wrong and went against his oath to do no harm but he didn’t want to jeopardize his own career. He was a coward. He didn’t speak up until President Trump made it easier for him.

He and his profession are responsible for the children who after having their physiological system flooded with hormones and multiple surgeries commit suicide. Or turn violent and go on shooting sprees often being killed or killing themselves. No man should ever experience PMS nor a women become masculinized.

God didn’t create us to try to become something we’re not.

While liberals have imposed tolerance, affirmation, and acceptance, these children didn’t receive the qualified mental illness treatment and access to spiritual counseling they needed. It’s like instead of getting psychological and medical help for a child with anorexia, you instead let them starve themselves to death while affirming how great their deteriorating body looks. What doctor or parent would ever do that?

This debate isn’t about hate—it’s about medical ethics, child development, and parental rights. Riley Gaines, an advocate for keeping men out of women’s sports, argues that doctors should help kids and parents navigate confusion with care and patience, not label them as “born wrong.” For many parents, that’s a reasonable line: protect children from irreversible decisions while they’re still growing.

Kids deserve compassion and caution. Most families believe major medical interventions should wait until adulthood, with parents—not activists or institutions—making those calls. A serious issue deserves honest discussion, evidence-based medicine, well-documented research, and respect for families.

Trans ideology must be treated as the demonic threat that it clearly is to everyone. There’ve been multiple shootings, including of family members, at the hands of transgenders.

Other types of mind radicalization by a violent and assassination culture have seen young men recently committing heinous crimes, assassinations, and attempted assassinations. When we woke up this morning to the news that there was an intruder at Mar A Lago carrying a gas can and gun, I knew before I heard it that he would be young. He was 21!

Satan sadistically laughs at violence and murders, especially those that take down children.

Sadly, Christians often aren’t good at standing up for truth.

Good people often tell truth poorly, while evil people tell lies well.

After all, the liars are getting their marching orders from the father of lies!

You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. John 8:44

The Devil is Afraid of the Next Generation!

Praise God, many in the next generation are going back to church and reading their Bible even as the devil is using the left to try and make it ugly for them, especially for Turning Point USA (TPUSA) kids. These kids have experienced the contrast of good and evil. They saw a 31-year-old man who was trying to rescue them from the devil’s grip assassinated by a young man with a trans, furry male lover.

The devil’s attempt to stop Charlie Kirk’s ministry to youth has backfired.

Justin Streiff, Chief Operating Officer for TPUSA, explains the evil TPUSA is encountering as they’re exponentially growing after the murder of Charlie Kirk. “That [ugly] has always come with the territory when you’re speaking truth deep in the belly of the beast… But this semester is different.”

Then he shares what some of the kids have been experiencing in the most hostile semester they’ve ever faced…Satan is turning up the heat:

From coast to coast, high school and college students who dared to stand for faith, freedom, and this great nation have been stalked, slandered, threatened, and in some cases — physically attacked.

All for saying what you and I know to be true:

That America is worth defending. That speech must remain free. That Charlie Kirk’s life and legacy meant something.

Despite the opposition — our students didn’t back down.

They didn’t run. They didn’t hide.

They showed up — earlier, louder, and stronger than ever before.

But not without cost.

TPUSA reports that in spite of all the harassment on campuses their students aren’t folding.

They’re still tabling at campus events.

They’re still meeting after school — still recruiting, still growing.

They’re still passing out pocket Constitutions and American flags.

They’re still launching chapters in hostile territory — places where they’ve been told, outright, that they’re not welcome.

And while their peers stage “ICE Walkouts” and chaos in the halls…

Our students are gathering to pray — for their schools, for law enforcement, and for this nation — quietly around their school’s flagpole.

That’s because these students made a decision — the same decision Charlie challenged them to every day: “It doesn’t take skill to be courageous. It takes a choice.”

They chose courage.

They chose to stand for faith, freedom, and family. They chose to defend everything that makes this country worth fighting for.

They truly are the courageous generation.

TPUSA Kids & Those Like Them Make Satan Afraid!!

Pray for the next generation to keep making Satan afraid and for them to stay strong against this enemy.

To keep the faith.

To remain courageous.

To give Satan something to worry about!

“Because demons long for bigger and more interesting prey — a meal they can play with for a while before devouring it. . . A nation that cannot say, “this is a baby and he deserves protection” will soon be unable to say, “This is a child and she [or he] deserves protection.”—Seth Gruber, White Rose Ministry

We find solace in knowing that while ‘the horse is made ready for the day of battle, victory rests with the Lord.’ Let us stand in the gap, praying for the families of the fallen, the mental well-being of our youth, and the continued ‘divine hedge of protection’ over our nation’s leaders and future leaders.” Prayer from a Facebook friend

Pray that America Remains: One Nation Under God!

Our Nation, the United States of America, will joyfully celebrate its 250^th birthday this year on July 4^th and the Trump Administration is planning a “huge” celebration. 250 years is a milestone many countries or empires may achieve . . . but then there’s often a rapid decline. 250 years is actually the life span of most great nations.

“While many like to comfort themselves that America is different, or even uniquely blessed by God, there’s no proof that we will escape the fate of other nations that one time believed the same about themselves,” Cal Thomas said in a recent presentation at the Heritage Foundation. Thomas’ talk was titled after his book, “America’s Expiration Date.”

After examining the historical precedent of former global superpowers, such as the Roman, Persian, Ottoman, and British empires, Thomas claims in his book that certain markers of cultural decline precede political decline. The book’s subtitle is “The Fall of Empires and Superpowers and the Future of the United States.”

Thomas says that in America: “Our past challenges were met with a resolve born out of a shared ethical and moral sense that is today in rapid retreat.” He mentioned one of the most disturbing markers of America’s decline is the casual devaluation of human life through abortion and daily deadly shootings in the inner cities that don’t even make the news anymore.

Thomas is hopeful that the cultural damage can be reversed with these three steps to restore common morality in America:

Remove the next generation from public schools and liberal institutions of higher education.
Encourage people to work and save and to look at government welfare programs as the last resort.
Close the partisan gaps in public discourse and combat the left-leaning mainstream media.

On point #1 about schools, Thomas makes a great point:

“We don’t send our soldiers to train in the enemy’s camp, so why do we send our children to schools that teach them values so contrary to our own while expecting them to return home with those values and beliefs still intact?”

While Thomas’ battle plan is valid and perhaps a bit altruistic, I don’t believe healing America’s moral cultural decline is achievable without a return to God, who our founding fathers prayed to and were inspired by in designing and crafting this great American experiment.

Did you know that a majority of our laws come straight out of the Book of Deuteronomy?

The Declaration of Independence acknowledges that God is our Creator, “All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.”

The Pledge of Allegiance starts out “I pledge allegiance to the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

Regardless of whose picture is on our money, America’s national motto adopted in 1956 is on all our currency, “In God We Trust.” America’s guiding motto is commonly displayed in courtrooms across the United States above judges’ benches and is prominently displayed in various areas of the Supreme Court Chamber and the Capitol Rotunda reflecting the historical and cultural significance of the motto in American society and law.

When a government official is sworn into office, they put their hand on the Bible and pledge to honor the Constitution and the role of the position, “So help me God.” Even those who put their hand on the Quran, which I think is a travesty and should be illegal, still have to pledge, “So help me God,” NOT “So help me Allah!”

Even more essential than the three points made by Thomas to the survival of the United States is Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth’s, profound proclamation at the National Prayer Breakfast in D.C. on February 5, 2026:

“A country that forgets its God, forgets its greatness!”

President Trump also knows this to be true and that is why during his keynote speech at the National Prayer Breakfast he said this . . .

PRESIDENT TRUMP: “I’m pleased to announce that on May 17th, 2026, that we’re inviting Americans from all across the country to come together on our National Mall to pray, to give thanks, and to do something a lot of people said ‘boy that’s tough,’. . . we’re going to rededicate America as One Nation Under God!”

The room erupted in applause with a standing ovation.

President Trump continued, “That’s what I mean the spirit is so incredible. I thought it would take longer…but we’re doing so well. Maybe it’s because of religion. I’ve always said you just can’t have a great country if you don’t have religion. You have to believe in something. You have to believe that what we’re doing there’s a reason for it . . . People are going to church. They’re meeting people. Churches have seen 30% to 70% increase. There’s an increase in the number of converts and people going to church every week. Bible sales are through the roof. To support this exciting renewal … I’m announcing this National Day of Prayer!”

Contrast President Trump’s speech at the National Prayer Breakfast with New York City mayor’s speech at an interfaith breakfast. Mamdani used Islam to lecture Americans about why they should resist ICE and illegal migration is necessary, although his own religion doesn’t allow non-Muslims to enter the city of Mecca, Saudi Arabia.

“I consider my own faith, Islam, a religion built upon a narrative of migration. The story of the Hijrah reminds us of the prophet Muhammad, [who] was a stranger too, who fled Mecca and was welcomed in Medina … If faith offers us the moral compass to stand alongside the stranger, government can provide the resources. Let’s create a new expectation of City Hall where power is wielded to love, to embrace, and protect. We will stand with the stranger today,” Mamdani said.

How does government “wield power to love”? Love is a choice. And those “strangers” he’s standing with that ICE is trying to protect New Yorkers from are illegal murderers, pedophiles, child molesters and traffickers, thieves, drug dealers . . . the worst of the worst. Mamdani is using power to love, embrace and protect illegal criminals instead of New Yorkers!

In a country whose motto is One Nation Under God, this mayor feels free to speak about Muhammad and Islamic “faith” as a role model for America’s biggest city! That should alarm everyone!

Islam is not a religion! It masquerades as a religion to take advantage of America’s religious rights protections. Islam is a political ideology with the goal of annihilating the infidels, Christians and Jews, and anyone who isn’t Muslim per the Quran and in that pursuit, they’re allowed to lie. Islam is not an ideology of peace. It’s an ideology of surrender to Islam and then there will be peace. Someone needs to call Mamdani out on that fact. Someone should’ve told New Yorkers that.

Pray For the Re-dedication of America as One Nation Under God!

A Facebook friend of mine shared the following commentary by Traci Coston, which she had posted on her Facebook page regarding President Trump’s announcement of the national gathering in D.C. on May 17 to again proclaim and rededicate America as “One Nation Under God.”

Traci addressed some of the issues maybe some of you are even feeling and wondering why God would choose President Trump for this national reawakening and turning America back to its roots founded in God and the Bible. I thought Traci used Scripture and her words well to confirm God’s timing and plan that we don’t always understand in our humanness, but praise God we’re alive today to experience it. So I’m going to share Traci’s post here for your consideration.

Traci Coston wrote . . .

“As believers, we need to pause and recognize what is happening in our nation. President Donald Trump has openly called the country to prayer and has declared a re-dedication of America back to God on May 17th on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. That should move us to pray, not argue.

Scripture says: “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority…” (1 Timothy 2:1–2)

Notice it doesn’t say only the leaders you personally like, agree with, or fully understand. We are commanded to pray for those in authority because God works through leadership to bring order, restraint, and alignment.

Some believers refuse to pray for President Trump because they question his salvation or his motives. But Scripture addresses this too. Paul wrote that even when Christ was preached from mixed or selfish motives, he still rejoiced because the gospel was advancing:

“Whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice.” (Philippians 1:18)

The issue is not whether a leader is perfect — it’s whether God is using them. Jesus Himself said: “Whoever is not against us is for us.” (Mark 9:40)

And He also made this spiritual truth unmistakably clear: “A house divided against itself cannot stand… Satan cannot cast out Satan.” (Mark 3:24–26)

Think about that carefully. A leader cannot be actively confronting evil, restraining darkness, calling a nation to prayer, and pointing people back to God by the power of the devil. Darkness does not cast out darkness. Evil does not war against itself. God may use vessels that don’t fit our expectations—sometimes when they don’t even fully understand what He’s doing through them.

Throughout Scripture, God used imperfect, unlikely, even resistant leaders to accomplish His purposes. What mattered was not their polish, but God’s power working through them. So instead of withholding prayer, criticizing from the sidelines, or demanding perfection before intercession, the Church should be doing what it has always been called to do:

Pray, intercede, ask God for wisdom, protection, repentance, and courage for our leaders, and thank God that His name is being lifted publicly again.

If a leader is calling the nation back to God, the response of believers should not be suspicion—it should be prayer.

“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” (Psalm 33:12)”

Thank you Traci for sharing this call to pray for and not against our President and our nation.

Hallelujah and Amen!

Saving Women’s Rights and Sports!

I’m reading Charlie Kirk’s last book published posthumously, Stop in the Name of God. The first chapter is titled Genesis 1:1 with the opening Scripture, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” You might think that’s elementary since most Christians know this verse, or should, but Charlie devoted the opening of his book to reaffirming this fact. Sometimes, even Christians need to go back to the basics of the creation story, including how God in Genesis chapter 2 created a man and a woman as unique and separate individuals.
Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Gen. 2:7

But for Adam no suitable helper was found. ²¹So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs^[^b^] and then closed up the place with flesh. ²²Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib^[^c^] he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. Gen. 2:20-22

Since the beginning of time, the physical distinctiveness of male and female has been an established biological, scientific, and biblical fact established at conception and revealed at birth until science invented ultrasound to determine sex in the womb during pregnancy and gender reveals became the rage.

When I was pregnant, the ultimate surprise was in the delivery room when the doctor announced to a panting exhausted new mother that she had just given birth to a boy or girl. That might seem archaic to some now, but other moms will remember with me how we waited with great anticipation to learn the sex of our new baby. While anticipating the birth of our baby, we decorated with neutral colors and enjoyed the birth gifts when friends and family learned whether we needed pink or blue baby clothes.

I’ll admit though that ultrasounds have been used to save many babies lives as the expectant mother sees her baby is a real little person developing in her tummy with fingers, toes, arms, legs, eyes, ears, a nose, and mouth. So even though God’s sex reveal at birth is outdated now, the redeeming value is more babies born. Praise God!

However, sci-fi wasn’t satisfied with knowing pre-birth sex, they started trying to play God by altering the foundations of humanity. First psychologically. Then ideologically. Ultimately physiologically. The medical community who take the Hippocratic Oath to preserve life decided they could dabble in genetics and try to distort and transform men into women and women into men, while originating a new term “trans.”

But no amount of chemicals, drugs, hormones, surgeries, or brainwashing will ever alter or transform a person’s DNA, chromosomes, muscle, body and bone structure that God created for every individual within their mother’s womb. The heretical, immoral, unethical, evil people in the scientific, psychological, and medical field making trillions of dollars with patients for life will never replace God, but God will judge them.

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. ¹⁴I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Ps. 139:13-14

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Matt. 18:6

Do not those who plot evil go astray? But those who plan what is good find love and faithfulness. Pr. 14:22

The vocal rainbow coalition activists combined with the abuse of modern medicine to create, deceive, and foster genetic confusion and bodily castration and mutilation with the fallacy that just wanting to identify as a different sex is achievable. It’s not! Unethical psychologists and physicians saw this as the cash cow that it is and political lobbyists for the homosexual community created a cult where schoolteachers were forced to use the language of a world gone mad.

The downfall into denouncing God and the Bible started with the legalization of same-sex marriage under the Obama Administration. It’s become diabolically degenerating since then with rampant pedophilia, child sex trafficking, men in women’s bathrooms, spas, dressing rooms, locker rooms, private areas, and sports. Even conjuring up terms like “furries” “trans” and “cis-woman.” The confirmation of Supreme Court justices like Ketanji Brown Jackson who can’t define a woman, even though she is a woman herself is insanity! [The Bizarre World of Ketanji Brown Jackson by Everett Piper]

Or recently, when Senator Josh Hawley asked OB-GYN Dr. Nisha Verma, a woman, for a simple yes or no if men could get pregnant, she wouldn’t answer! More insanity!

Coming off Obama’s disastrous years, coaches and school administrators fearing cancel-culture refused to protect girls and keep men out of women’s sports. Parents were often rebuffed if they complained, even when their daughters were forced to room with men on travels. The girls who were brave enough to protest were shamed, silenced, and told they had to acquiesce to men playing on women’s teams if they wanted to play sports. But one by one, especially after swimmer Riley Gaines lost her trophy to a man who she tied because the political optics were better for him to be in first place, girls started speaking out.

The liberal left and Democrats have made this a political issue and tried to cancel or fire anyone who wouldn’t go along with trying to eliminate God from His creation by allowing men to be publically recognized and treated as women. There’s no such thing as a “transgender woman or man.” God only creates men and women!

Currently a Democrat man is masquerading as a woman in Congress and in Idaho one is running for governor! Sadly, even some churches decided to become more culturally and “socially” correct than biblically correct, which would require eliminating most of the Bible starting with Genesis 1:1.

Saving Women’s Rights and Sports

Title IX was passed in 1972 to insure equal opportunities for women in sports. But over the last decade, men have invaded women’s sports as fake gender ideology has seared consciences and culture. Title IX was passed because men and women are different. The Biden Administration tried to alter Title IX’s definition of sex to include gender identity but it didn’t pass. Still most blue states deny women their Title IX rights.

Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 1 Tim. 4:2

Idaho and West Virginia established laws protecting women in sports in their states. The Supreme Court heard two cases last week involving men suing to play in women’s sports in these two states. Girls had their day in court!

I’m proud to say that Idaho, where we’ve lived for almost fifteen years, was the first state to take legal action to protect our girls in sports in March 2020 by passing House Bill 500 “Fairness in Women’s Sports Act” implementing the nation’s first transgender policy barring trans female athletes from playing on women’s sports teams. West Virginia then passed a similar law. Alliance Defending Freedom’s (ADF) helped draft those bills, as did the Idaho Family Policy Center in Idaho.

Male students “identifying as women” challenged the state’s laws and the ACLU represented them. Idaho and West Virginia appealed to the Supreme Court, which accepted both cases. SCOTUS usually doesn’t take on two similar cases, but because they each bring up different issues, one against the Constitution and one against Title IX, SCOTUS heard both in the same day.

Since President Trump signed an executive order specifically restricting federal funds to schools that allow males to compete on women’s teams under Title IX, 32 states have passed laws to protect women in sports. Despite the majority of states now banning men from women’s athletics, 18 states still allow males who claim transgender status to compete on women’s sports teams, posing a risk to the safety and fairness of female athletes.

I encourage you to listen to this short interview Defending Biblical Truth in Women’s Sports, with ADF’s Kate Anderson and Fearless’ Cissie Graham Lynch, Franklin Graham’s daughter.

SCOTUS Showdown: ACLU lawyer stumped by basic biology

During the Supreme Court hearing arguments on the Idaho and West VA cases, Justice Alito asked ACLU a simple question: “What is a man? What is a woman?”

Their answer? “We don’t have a definition.”

Yes, you read that correctly. This was the definition debate heard around the world.

If the so-called guardians of “civil rights” can’t even define sex, how can they claim to defend it? This is the collapse of common sense, live in the highest court of the land.

It was hard to hear some of the judges like Amy Coney Barrett using non-terms like “trans women” and “cis women” instead of men and women. I’m sure she would call herself a woman, not a cis woman! Men pretending to be women are not “trans” or “women.” They’re mentally disturbed men, have a fetish, or can’t excel in men’s sports so they want to eviscerate women. Whatever their reasons, it’s wrong and not normal, legal, moral, or biblical!

Testosterone levels do NOT determine, define, or erase biological sex, bone and muscle structure, strength, or DNA, which is what the opposing side was trying to argue to SCOTUS. Listening to the side who can’t define a man or a woman was pathetic. Women are more than hormone levels!

It was also disappointing to have so much time given to the “feelings” and “fairness” of men being excluded from women’s sports. Identifying as a woman does NOT make a man a woman. There should’ve been more discussion given to the feelings and fairness to women who lose scholarships, scholastic and career opportunities, trophies, medals, not to mention being exposed to lewd voyeur men who still have all their male parts in locker rooms, showers, and private areas. In what world is that fair or safe for women?!

Let me mention also that even though Governor of California Newsom has admitted in interviews with both Charlie Kirk and Ben Schapiro that men in women’s sports isn’t fair and he can see the other side, I’ve read his excuse for allowing men in women’s sports in his state is because he has a “trans godson.” Just because our child, grandchild, or godchild chooses an alternate lifestyle doesn’t make it okay to inflict it on others. Enabling a confused child instead of engaging mental help for them does more harm than good.

In last week’s blog, Respect and Appreciate the Men and Women Who Keep Us Safe by Enforcing the Law, I introduced you to Janet Elaine Parks. I hope some of you started following her on social media. Here are some of her remarks last week about SCOTUS hearing the women’s rights cases.

Protecting Women’s Rights (Because Women’s Spaces Should Stay Female)

This is one that the left loves to weaponize… But conservatives are not “anti-anyone” for saying a basic truth:

Men are men. Women are women.

And women deserve:

private spaces
fair competition
basic safety protections

This administration supports keeping biological men out of women’s sports, bathrooms, locker rooms, and private spaces.

That isn’t hateful.
That’s reality.
And pretending biology doesn’t exist doesn’t make society “inclusive”…
It makes women pay the price.

Women fought for decades to earn:

fair sports opportunities

safe boundaries

sex-based protections

And now the left is trying to erase those protections by calling women “bigots” for wanting what we already had: A protected category called WOMEN.

Bodies Play Sports, Not Identities

In the opening picture of this blog, former champion gymnast Jennifer Sey, a seven-time member of the United States women’s national artistic gymnastics team and the 1986 U.S. All-Around National Champion founder of the XX-XY Athletics brand, is sounding the alarm arguing women’s sports are for women and warning that “identity affirmation” is replacing fairness and safety. I encourage you to read more of her comments here. http://dlvr.it/TQP5Py

I want to thank Idaho for defending women not just in our state, but going all the way to the Supreme Court to protect women in every state for our daughters and granddaughters in the future.

Pray SCOTUS stands by biological women’s rights, protection, dignity, and recognition that mentally challenged men cannot challenge women in sports or erase womanhood. Pray for wisdom and discernment as the justices deliberate. The cases before SCOTUS last week are not just about isolated incidents in two states. The justices’ decision will shape how our girls are able to do what they love—and feel safe doing so—for generations to come.

This is not a political issue. It’s a Genesis issue and comes down to the biblical definition of God creating us male and female. Together let’s stand fearlessly for what’s right. Let’s pray the Supreme Court determines that girls are girls and boys can’t become girls in Idaho, West Virginia, or any state in America!!!

An article to read. We Were College Athletes Supreme Court Must Listen to Our Case and Save Women’s Sports written by two female college athletes from Idaho, Madison Kenyon and Marky Kate Marshall, defendants in the Idaho case heard by SCOTUS last week. Here’s their opening and I encourage you to read the rest of the article from girls who have experienced the heartbreak of having men in women’s sports and taking over 890 medals from female athletes.
“Imagine if the U.S. Supreme Court was asked to rule on whether the law of gravity still applies, even in these early years of the 21st century. After all, some people are uncomfortable with their size. They feel sluggish and weighed down by that pull from the Earth. Why shouldn’t they just be able to ignore gravity and float along as easily as they please? Why should any law of nature be allowed to constrain how light and thin someone feels inside? If that sounds ridiculous to you, imagine how female athletes have felt in recent years, having to compete against males just because they’ve been told that feeling like a woman can make them so.”

What Are You Willing to Sacrifice For Your Beliefs?

It’s good to be back with my Monday Morning Blog. I took a brief sabbatical from writing while hubby Dave had his 3^rd major surgery in a year. This time it was a total shoulder replacement. If you know of anyone who has experienced this, or maybe you have, it’s no fun and requires a great deal of help from the caregiver. In our case, that would be me. So my brain was often in a fog keeping up with meds, chores, and being available 24/7. I’m happy to say we’re just over a month since surgery. He’s started physical therapy and becoming more independent even though he still is in a shoulder sling so only has the use of one arm as of this writing.

I’ve missed providing my commentary on the world’s events recently, but I’m ready to re-engage with some thoughts here. What the Lord has been showing me is the great divide that is taking place in our world today. Many have bravely exposed the source of that divide; others have remained silent counting the cost too high to speak up.

It’s no longer just a political divide. It’s a spiritual divide between good and evil and it’s invading churches, friends, and families.

This great divide isn’t new. Jesus was the Great Divider and because of that, He triggered many people who objected to what He said and did. The Bible and the Gospel triggers unbelievers. I purposely used the word “trigger” here because so often you hear pastors, teachers, school boards, even parents scolding or even punishing anyone who says something that might ‘trigger’ the opposing side or someone with a differing opinion.

Today, we see the left proposing and even justifying the use of violence if someone says something they disagree with that triggers them. We saw the ultimate culmination of that demonic thinking with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Instead of the left backing down and acknowledging the terrible result of their violent rhetoric, they’ve doubled down with many celebrating his death or even using it as a threat against conservatives to intimidate us from questioning them and speaking our own beliefs.

Jesus warned in John 15:20 “Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.”

That verse clearly sets the precedent for what Christians and conservatives are experiencing today with this cultural divide. If you’re a vocal professing Christian/conservative, you’ll probably be persecuted for your faith, values, and politics.

However, Jesus says, don’t let these persecutors intimidate or silence you because there’s also people like yourself living by a biblical worldview. If you’re willing to risk persecution and attacks to teach and share the Gospel and biblical values, other like-minded people will listen and also obey the teachings of Jesus in their personal and political lives.

Unfortunately, there are many pastors today who try to walk a neutral noncommittal line between these two groups to avoid loss of parishioners and tithing, or fear of complaints—persecution—by avoiding anything that would “trigger” someone in the congregation.

They appease the few rather than mature the flock.

I recently heard of a church where the young pastor was preaching a series on sin. Not skirting around sin but speaking directly to specific sins and what the Bible says about those sins. God hates sin and He’s not tolerant. Some congregants were so upset that they either stopped coming to church or said they would return when the series was over!!

Can you imagine that? I can. I’ve asked many times before when was the last time your pastor spoke about sins like abortion, homosexuality, adultery, same-sex marriage, lying, cheating, cursing? This brave pastor was willing to suffer the “persecution” of triggering people with the truth so he could teach those who wanted to know how to live biblically in a world that increasingly celebrates and legalizes sin.

This pastor was willing to cross over the great divide between good and evil, as every pastor should!

Jesus Triggered People Politically and Scripturally

Jesus shared the truth no matter what the cost. He knew, and even said, not everyone would accept it. The Gospel would divide people, but He didn’t come to unify, negotiate, or compromise good with evil. He came to earth and sacrificed His life on a cross to give everyone a chance to turn from his or her evil ways, repent, and follow Him. To cross over the divide from evil to good.

“Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn “‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—³⁶ a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’” Matt. 10:33-36

Jesus was political. God created government. It was His idea.

By me kings reign
and rulers issue decrees that are just;
¹⁶by me princes govern,
and nobles—all who rule on earth. Pr. 8:15-16

Jesus’ life and mission carried with it political implications. His life was ended in a political execution because He challenged the status quo of the spiritual and government political leaders of the day.

In the opening of Mark’s Gospel, we find these words, “The kingdom of God has come near.” Mark 1:15

A new kingdom threatened the Roman government leaders and the Jewish religious leaders who each had their own kingdom reigns. Jesus knew that, but He never let it stop Him.

Jesus was not afraid of appearing political. While His kingdom is much different from any earthly kingdom, He wants His followers to adhere to Matthew 6:10 “Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” A prayer I pray every morning and try my best with the Lord’s help to live by and encourage others to do the same.

Jesus was clear that the government shouldn’t interfere with the church. “Then he said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” Matt. 22:20

America has no “separation of church and state” either. It’s a lie from the devil. You won’t find it in the Constitution or Bill of Rights. The Johnson Amendment has been revoked by President Trump so churches and nonprofits can endorse candidates and encourage congregations to vote without losing their tax exemptions.

First Liberty Institute’s win in the Supreme Court for Coach Joe several years ago meant you can pray in schools, have crosses, Ten Commandments, and manger scenes on government land. Currently, First Liberty is representing high school seniors whose schools are preventing them from putting a Bible verse or faith-based imagery on their parking spots. No Space for Faith? Another High School Senior Told She Can’t Decorate Parking Spot with Bible Reference – News – First Liberty

Unfortunately, many churches are still acting with their hands tied for fear of appearing “political,” while we’re watching our culture crumble around us. Half of the founding fathers who wrote the Constitution had seminary degrees and a large portion of the Constitution and Bill of Rights was based on the Bible. Preachers fought in the Revolutionary War for us to have religious freedom.

Yet over the years, a country based on Judeo/Christian laws and values has watched the church adapt, accept, or even endorse cultural sins. Remain silent while ungodly politicians and laws rule our country. Schools indoctrinate our children in Marxism and sexual perversion. Doctors murder unborn babies or mutilate children. Forgetting and failing to defend our country’s creed, “In God We trust!”

What Are You Willing to Sacrifice For Your Beliefs?

It’s been refreshing to see so many Christians, even pastors, step forward and run for office because they want to make a difference. They want to turn America back to a country with a biblical worldview. If you listened to Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, you heard many politicians and cabinet members sharing not only their faith, but the Gospel. They’re criticized and polarized regularly by the media and the left, but they don’t let it stop them from serving the American people.

I know they sacrifice. They’re doxed and horrible lies said about them. Their families and they need added security because you can be sure the evil one will try to take them down just as he did with Charlie Kirk.

I personally have lost both a speaking gig at a church and a writing a column in a Christian magazine because I share my political position publicly. To know me is to know I’m a Christian Conservative with a biblical worldview.

Often, I’ll write a blog and know there will be unsubscribes, but I just share a chuckle with the Lord when the same day there’s new subscribers. Like you, not everyone in my family agrees with me, but we find love is stronger than politics. I will admit though that it can cause division just as Jesus said in Matthew 10:33-36 above.

“We’re not just here to observe culture. We’re called to influence it. That means recognizing the space where God has given you authority and learning how to move with wisdom and presence in that place. It’s one thing to know you have a calling; it’s another to understand where and how to walk it out. In Daniel 2:44, we read that the Kingdom of God will not pass away and that it will ultimately influence every other domain. That influence doesn’t float down from the clouds. It happens through people like you. People who discern their mountain and take their place as salt and light in education, business, media, arts, government, family, and faith.” Lance Wallnau

What is your calling and what will you sacrifice to live out your beliefs both spiritually and politically? The world may hate us, but a great crowd of witnesses in heaven are cheering for us!

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, ²fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. ³Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Hebrews 12:1-3

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Is. 41:10

This is an excellent article well worth reading. There are so many great quotes; it’s hard to pick just one. Here are two from The Anglican Church’s Split: When the culture wins over Scripture.

“The pattern is clear: When the Church accommodates culture, it loses its reason for being. But when the Church stands on the Word of God, even when costly, it offers something the world cannot: truth, hope, and the unchanging Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

“A church that won’t stand on Scripture will not stand for freedom. A church that bends to culture on marriage and gender will bend on education, parenting, and religious liberty. The call is clear, hold fast to the historic faith. Do not be moved by cultural pressure. God’s truth has outlasted every empire, every ideology, every revolution. It will outlast this one.”

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Heb. 13:8

God is Always Watching: The Importance of Integrity

When I was a little girl, I can still hear my mother cautioning me to do the right thing even when she wasn’t around because, “God is always watching!”

When I speak and write on mentoring I often say that the people parents mentor the most, even if it’s not intentional, are their children. Are you the woman today you want your daughter to become? Are you the man you want your son to become? Do you have the marriage you want your children to have? Because even when you’re not thinking about it, little eyes are watching how you act, what you say, how generous you are.

As Christians, does your walk match your talk? Are you the same person during the week as you are on Sunday morning at church?

A big responsibility you say. Yes, being a parent is the biggest responsibility you’ll ever have in life, unless you’re also a Christian and then how you represent Christ will top all other responsibilities while influencing everything you do.

This past week, we’ve seen a number of breaches of integrity being revealed, some literally in the dark and some out in the open.

Let’s start first with Chip and Joanna Gaines who built a financial empire with their “Fixer Upper” program. Their Magnolia merchandise is carried predominately at Target, as well as in their own stores. They’ve presented themselves as a wholesome family with Christian values and many adored them, even in my own family. Then recently they branched out into a new Magnolia Network series “Back To The Frontier” and all the Christian beliefs they portrayed in the past went out the window when they decided to attract a broader woke “progressive” audience. Just like every other program that has embraced the alphabet mafia, they included two “married” gay men who had adopted two boys.

When their shocked Christian audience and supporters called them out on deviating from biblical values, they doubled down right out of the liberal LGBTQ+ playbook calling Bible-believing Christians hateful and unloving. But what they were really saying is the Bible is hateful and unloving because the Bible has plenty to say about marriage (Gen. 2:24, Mark 10:6-9) and sexual sin (Lev. 18:22, Lev. 20:13, Rom. 26-27, 1 Cor. 6:9-10, Jude 1:7). So they weren’t just disparaging Christians, they were blaspheming God’s Word.

In Forsaken God? Remembering The Goodness of God Our Culture Has Forgotten, I wrote about what can happen when the church succumbs to the world normalizing sin. There is no such thing as a “progressive” Christian or church because that actually describes a progressive fall away from God. “Woke” is simply the current word used for worldly and wicked.

Here’s a short excerpt from my book.
“God’s ways never change no matter the century—his ways are timeless and perfect and designed for our good, not our harm. Regardless of how the populace or government tries to redefine or politicize morality, immorality always is detestable to God, as it should be to every Bible-believing Christian, and that’s what we must share with the next generation. When they ask why is sexual immorality worse than other sins? We answer them: Because it violates God’s holy temple—our body—created in his image, which is why he tells us to, “Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies” (1 Cor. 6:18-20). We need to have these kinds of conversations straight from Scripture with our children and grandchildren.

Satan is hijacking high-profile liberal pastors and several mainline denominations who expound that: the Bible isn’t inerrant or relevant, God is a myth, Jesus is a legend, and the church needs to catch up with the culture. Essentially, they’re atheists trying to mask themselves as “progressive Christians,” as if they’ve discovered the true, open-minded Christianity that doesn’t need the Bible. Wolves in sheep’s clothing—straight out of Titus 1:15-16. Culture never trumps Scripture. Even if you’ve been a member for years of one of these denominations or churches that now succumbs to this unbiblical, satanical teaching—run—leave immediately, and take your family with you.

The ‘liberals’ defiantly ignore Jesus’ warning that Christians are in the world, but not of the world. And Jesus didn’t come to conform to the culture; he came to reform the culture.”

I don’t know what made the Gaines conform to the culture and normalize sin. Was it all the money they made from Target who supported the alphabet merchandise right next to theirs and the Gaines never spoke out against it? Was it the desire to make more money at the expense of losing their biggest base, Christians? Read more here.

You can agree or disagree with this statement, but when we watch high-profile pastors, ministers, worship leaders, influencers who claim to be Christians fall prey to Satan’s worldly cultural agenda, you have to question if they were ever truly saved? Did they ever have a born-again experience? Because if they did, the Holy Spirit would be residing in their heart telling them not to go the way of the world. When the powers of darkness takeover a mind, it will spin it to whatever political or cultural narrative they desire.

And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption. Eph. 4:30 NLT

“If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” 1 John 2:15

“Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God?” Gal. 1:10

See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son. Heb. 12:16

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” John 14:15

God knows. God is ALWAYS watching!

Next, we see the apparent adulterous couple caught on a Kiss-Cam Jumbotron at a Coldplay concert where they thought they could hide their discretions amongst thousands of people. But there they were exposed on the big screen hugging not just for the concert people to see, but as they tried to hide, one of the performers laughingly said they were either camera shy or having an affair. These were two high profile people at a company and the married man who was a CEO has already resigned and embarrassed his company.

“For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known. Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear in inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.” Luke 12:2-3

“Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the Lord, and their works are in the dark; they say, ‘Who sees us?’ and, ‘Who knows us?’” Is. 29:15

God Knows. God is ALWAYS watching!

Then we see the exposure of a former president and his administration manufacturing a hoax against his successor that they thought would never be revealed. They didn’t hide their trail very well. Everything the Obama administration was treasonously doing, they tried to convince the American public that Trump was doing. They must’ve been so sure they could take him down even after he was elected, that they got sloppy as all the memos and emails of this “treasonous conspiracy” are being revealed now.

They failed twice. First with Trump being elected in 2016 and he probably also won in 2020, but their trickery worked that year. Hard as they tried to scheme and use lawfare to keep him out of the White House again, he won with a landslide lead in 2024, even after narrow escapes from assassination attempts.

How could they not know the man they had so wrongly persecuted for the past ten years would eventually find them out? He is now much wiser to how low the dark deep state will go to try to maintain/regain power. But the American people are also wiser.

I just saw a meme: “Trump and Russia were the only ones NOT involved in the Russia Russia Russia hoax!” We laugh, but it’s diabolically sad that the media also propagated the lies that so many believed.

“For nothing concealed will not be disclosed, nor hidden that will not be known.” Luke 8:17

“Therefore do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed and hidden that will not be known.” Matt. 10:26

God knows. God is ALWAYS watching!

What Can We Learn From All of These Revelations?

I want to share with you what Devin Schubert wrote on Facebook regarding the Kiss Cam event, but it applies to everything we do as Christians as Schubert aptly concludes. I couldn’t say it any better.

“The kiss cam exposed more than a couple.

It exposed a truth we forget far too often:
Influence doesn’t turn off.
Not when you leave the office.
Not when the lights go down.
Not even when you think no one’s watching.
At a Coldplay concert this week, a CEO and his HR director got caught on camera.
Not at work.
Not on stage.
Just… in the crowd.
But that one moment of closeness?
Broadcasted to a stadium.
Then to the internet.
Then to the world.
Within hours, people had names, LinkedIn titles, marriage records, screenshots, apologies—real and fake.
Comments got shut down.
Accounts went private.
And the truth came crashing in:
What you do in secret eventually shows up in public.
What you build behind closed doors will always echo… good or bad.
Someone is always watching.
And someone is always learning from you.
So here’s what I want to say to every leader, coach, speaker, parent, entrepreneur, pastor, builder of anything:
Make sure your influence is worth following.
Not just impressive—but integral.
Not just polished—but pure.
Not just inspiring—but honest.
Because you don’t lose influence overnight.
You lose it in quiet compromises.
And you gain it the same way.
One decision at a time.
One “no one’s watching” moment at a time.
Let this moment remind us:
You can influence with courage, or you can influence with compromise.
You can build for applause, or you can build for the Kingdom.
But only one lasts.
God sees what the cameras miss.
He rewards what man forgets.
And yes… grace is real, please don’t forget!
But so are consequences.
So lead well.
Live worthy.
Influence like it matters… because it always does.
We are people of legacy.
People of integrity.
And people of the Kingdom.
Let’s carry that with honor.” Devin Schubert

Integrity and character are who you are when you think no one is watching!

God knows. God is ALWAYS watching!

The eyes of the LORD are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good. Pr. 15:3

You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your countenance. Ps. 90:8

For Self-Reflection

I saw the following posted on a friend’s Facebook page and thought it was so appropriate for all of us. We don’t know who the original author is . . .

“The other day I was hanging out with a friend. This friend is a Christian, but she doesn’t always act, speak or think like one. Some days she is nearly completely in line with God’s Word, and some days her life is a struggle that gets the best of her.

As our eyes met, I really wanted to say something about it but I decided to let the Lord speak to her heart knowing nothing that I say will have the same impact as the Father’s words.

So…. I prayed with her, and after some time had passed I winked at her and walked away from the mirror.

I try every day and I fail every day. I am so not perfect, I am a work in progress and I’m thankful for God’s grace and His promises to His believers.”

God Knows. God is ALWAYS watching!

“He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.” Pr. 28:13
