Only in America!

I hope that the National Day of Prayer went off without a hitch for you as it did for me. Our city gathered at the court house for prayer under the USA flag by a war memorial. I am not saying which war the memorial was for because all wars that have been fought to maintain our freedom is as important as the other.

An establishing of the reason for our gathering was made clear right at the beginning and it was to lift the name of our God on high and His name is Jesus the Christ. That is exactly what we did for the full hour; in love, humbleness and joy did we do that.

A choir of Teen Challenge men sang and led us in hymns. Prayer warriors of Pastors, the chief of the Police, a highway patrol man, Sheriff, mayors, ex military men of various wars, governmental representatives, ordinary folks like myself and more lifted our LORD's name on high in prayer and singing.

We praised God to be in a country that is still free enough to be able to do this; meet in broad daylight and pray out loud lifting up the matchless name of Jesus Christ at our own free will because we love God; Father, Son Jesus Christ, and Holy Ghost. I arrived home to a phone call from a friend in another town asking if I was in hand cuffs yet? Of course she was only teasing me but that is the point, isn't it; To be free enough to not be arrested for worshiping in a public place. It is an altogether awesome gift that I do thank God for everyday it is still here! It felt good to still be able to say, “Only in America.” We are the ones with such encompassing freedom.

I treasure to hang onto this freedom. We have been seeing a different trend that collectively many of us have not liked. We have pursued the normal course of contacting our representatives and to no avail. Things have rammed through relentlessly and we in America became the great nation we are because we are people who don't like things rammed through. So we said, “Okay, we will see you at the polls next Fall when it comes time to vote.” After today, that desire sits even deeper in me for I want very much to hang onto what we did under the flag today to continue on for my children and their children. I want them to know and say with full realization, “Only in America.”

So I ask, are you keeping tabs of who is running in your district? Do you know about your candidates to make a wise choice at the voting booth? This is the year we really need to do this. In fact, lets start with knowing how to find which district you are in so you can understand who your candidates may be. Check this site here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MN-districts-108.JPG

Immediately I could tell I am in district 8 and when I clicked on district 8 I can tell immediately who is my current representative. Get yourself familiar, friends, on how to search out all the information you need to go to the polls prepared to vote your conscious. It is another thing we can still do and lets not let it slip away.

In a lingering heart to praise our LORD, I end the post with this:

Also, Happy Mother's Day to all you lovely mothers out there in cyberspace! God bless you and yours! Have an absolutely wonderful day this Sunday.

Beware The Leavening!

I have received the best wholesome film of Minnesota that I have ever seen. Just in case you want to know who and what Minnesota really is, check this out. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=FPw6MKhgtdo I really believe if you stripped Minnesota back to this time and place, you would be looking at her in the truth of who she is. Not the sky line you see today but the tree line of then. Beautiful.

I know some extremely beautiful people who if you were to strip them to the beginning of who they were, you would find the best of their beauty too. Not the hair dyed, cosmetic face beauty makeover but the wide eyed, dimpled smiling sweetheart of a person who looks you fully in the face with nothing to hide and says, “I'm so glad to see you!”

Where is this conversation going?

I have been watching and listening and searching out mind twisting subjects that truly need clarity. They need to have somebody go back to the stripped truth of the matter like a woman without layers of make up and cities that are not overcrowded. Instead of the hearing of what one wants to hear rather then the facts that are hard to hear, you must, I must, we must watch and listen with magnifying glasses! This is no time for rose colored glasses. If a radio broadcast comes in to you, an article, a video; check it out closely and then check it again. Ask yourself, “does it line up with the Word of God?” Some radio broadcasts are self generated and yes, for free. I could start a radio broadcast network for free on line and so could you. The people doing the broadcast could be transmitting an ill wind! You must take your sails out of that wind or risk getting blown away and out of sync with God; Who is Father, Son Jesus Christ and Holy Ghost.

There are many groups trying to return to a free Republic and last night I listened to one where the main speaker believes in and advocates the belief that the new earth will rumble in via a fifth dimension. A lady called in and asked wistfully if we became a free country again as a Republic with no taxes and no governors, etc., would we stop having earth quakes like we have been having? Part of that is the belief that the earth quakes are being man made right now with the use of man made instruments like HAARP. [See this blog site http://ontherunfrommartiallaw.blogspot.com/2010/01/haarp.html for HAARP info] But the answer she got was that some of these earth quakes need to happen so the next earth age could come through from the “5^th dimension.”

What is a 5^th dimension?

Let me say just for the record there is no fifth dimension in the Bible that will bring in the new heaven and earth that is tax free, government free, and all kinds of other “frees” and then gets called a Republic. Some thing that has even a little Leavening of evil needs casting out! It is hypocrisy.

Luke 12:1(King James Version)

“In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.”

What is the leaven of what you are hearing or seeing or reading...scout it out and get rid of the whole of which it stands. Hang onto the good you have instead! In the Christian's stead, hang on to the hope that is coming that is in Christ Jesus for you! Stand firm and after doing all that you can do; Stand!

So, what did I watch, listen to, or read? All of it folks; sort out not just one thing you come across but sort out rather ALL OF IT! Strip whatever it is down to it's base and see what is there? Is it a cornerstone of Jesus in any way? Then keep it and bring it up through the ranks to see if the truth clings to the base all the way up to 'now' time. If the base is not on the cornerstone of Jesus, dump it out right now! Our cornerstone in Christ Jesus is found in the Word. If it's NOT in the Word...leave it alone. Yup. End of story.

But here is something worth lingering on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=demRHgul2Zk&feature=player_embedded

This is “Where Love Takes You In”...let it be a safe place. Keep you eyes on Jesus. He is safe. Through Jesus, God has adopted us. Ephesians 1:4-6 (King James Version)

“According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.”
