From My Heart

 

Three days after the election:  

I'll be honest, the results were devastating.  I was disappointed.  The Democrats are gloating and bragging about how things are going to change – open borders, men in girls sports, DEI, and abortion – I saw a reel about women gleefully dancing around exclaiming, “Abortion is back, baby!” Oh, Father, it hurts my heart. But what can I do?

The Lord spoke to my heart: You can focus on the fact that I am still in control. It didn’t take Me by surprise. Trust Me.

Praise Me! – Praise lifts Your spirit….and it defeats the evil one. Put on the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.

Yes, Lord! I lift my hands and say, “Yet, I will praise You. You are still in control. You are not taken by surprise."

When fear attacks, say “Praise the Lord! Haleluyah! I trust You and I praise You.”

Remember, I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, of love, and a sound mind. Personalize it: 

Say out load: "My Father has not given me a spirit of fear. He has given me a spirit of power, of love, and He has given me a sound mind. I can look at what’s happening around me, in my country, without losing heart. I can resist resentment and hate and choose love. I can renew my mind – and do the things that restore my soul: read and meditate on God’s Word, speak it, sing it. I can put on music that reinforces my faith and spirit"

Yes, Lord.  I will let the Your peace rule in my heart, to which I am called.  I can turn away from the news media. Jem can keep me updated on anything I need to know. I willf ocus on the things that encourage and uplift me:  Ancient Hebrew Instrumental channel on YouTube, hymns, spoken Scripture playing all day long while I work.

Thank You, Father.

God reminded me: In the time of Yeshua, Israel lived under the rule of a godless government led by godless rulers. The Romans were evil, brutal, murderous...they killed babies, crucified criminals – even Yeshua, who was blameless according to their own record. Similarly, we have lived under Congresses who were ungodly and used their influence to advance the evil one’s agenda to steal, kill, and destroy. It has happened before. But remember the Roman centurion – he came to Yeshua and he believed in him –  it changed him – and others through him, I’m sure.

So, I can pray and believe, and preach Yeshua and the Torah – His will, His Word, and His ways. That changes people and it’s what will make America Great Again. Oh, how I pray for revival.

Also, I can refuse the believe the evil one’s lie: don’t talk about religion or politics. I reject that. I must talk about both of them whenever I have an open door. In person. On social media. On my blog. In my books. I am called to such a time as this.
