“The church must be reminded it’s not the master of the state, it’s not the servant of the state, but it’s the conscience of the state.” –Martin Luther King Jr.
We have to be identified first and foremost as God’s people. –Michael Brown
If we don’t get out and vote and things shift dramatically and suddenly we can’t see a lot of the things important to us going forward, we have no one to blame but ourselves. –Michael Brown

Scriptures

Revelation 21:1-2 MEV Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth.” For the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no more sea. I, John, saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Revelation 21:19-21 MEV The foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all kinds of precious jewels. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald; the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; and the twelfth, amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.
Matthew 12:25 MEV Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. And every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
Revelation 12:10 MEV Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying: “Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brothers, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.

How to Decree, Declare Your God-Given Dreams Over Your Family

RACHEL SAMMONS  CHARISMA NEWS
"It seems my entire life I've been on a mission to empower ordinary people, people like you and me, to find their voice and make it heard in extraordinary ways."
Best-selling author Cindy Trimm uses this line to open her book Hello, Tomorrow! The Transformational Power of Vision (Charisma House, 2018) which released on Sept. 4. As a sought-after empowerment specialist, Trimm has dedicated her life to helping people build the bridge between who they are now and who they aspire to be.
But her message is more than a platform; it's a personal conviction. Vision is what turned the tide for Trimm. She and her six siblings were raised by a single mother in a leaky, rat-infested house in Bermuda. As a child, Trimm didn't know any better.
She says in an interview on Sid Roth's It's Supernatural!, "I didn't know there was something else to want. Until God came into my life and showed it to me."

When she gave her heart to the Lord at 17, everything changed. God showed her that He had so much more planned for her life. She just needed to believe it.
"I read in the Scripture that you can decree a thing and it shall be established," Trimm says. "And I took the Word literally."
One day, as her family argued over how they would pay their mounting bills, Trimm stepped forward and declared that they would be out of poverty and out of their ramshackle house. She decreed that they would overcome their circumstances.
As she discovered, by articulating what her family longed for, Trimm was able to set them on the path to prosperity. Six months later, not only did they move into a beachside estate, but all of Trimm's family members dedicated their lives to God. Trimm was overjoyed. And as she later discovered, this was only the beginning.
Having seen how God uses spoken declarations to shift her thinking and propel her forward, Trimm went on to encourage her mentees to verbalize their future. Her best-selling book Commanding Your Morning(Charisma House, 2007) directs readers to put words to what they desire for their future.
"No matter how good or bad your life is, every circumstance can change for the best if you learn how to command your morning before your day even begins," Trimm says.
Hello, Tomorrow! is the sequel, in which Trimm emphasizes how having a vision is not just a self-help tool. It's a spiritual discipline. God gives us visions to pursue, and we glorify Him in our perseverance. Trimm calls it "grititude," or an attitude of grit. She writes on how chasing a dream requires a step out of one's own comfort zone.
She references Scripture as an example of when God promised blessing to those who dare to leave the familiar:
Now the Lord said to Abram, "Go from your country, your family, and your father's house to the land that I will show you. I will make of you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing. I will bless them who bless you and curse him who curses you, and in you all families of the earth will be blessed." So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken to him (Gen. 12:1-4a).
Trimm emphasizes that we too have new frontiers waiting to be discovered. We just need to craft our vision, give that vision a voice and discover our new frontier.

Middle Class Erosion: 33 Million Americans Will Not Travel During The Holidays Because They Can’t Afford To Do So - Michael Snyder

Posted: 09 Oct 2018 Michael Snyder

We have repeatedly been told that the U.S. economy is “booming”, but meanwhile the middle class in the United States continues to be hollowed out.  The financial bubbles that the Federal Reserve has created have been a great blessing for those at the very top of the economic pyramid, but most of the country is still deeply struggling.  According to one survey, 78 percent of all full-time workers in the U.S. live paycheck to paycheck, and that doesn’t even include part-time workers or those that are unemployed. 

We have also been told that unemployment is “low”, but the real numbers tell us that there are more working age Americans without a job in 2018 than there was at any point during the last recession.  Most of the people that my wife and I know are struggling, and I continually get emails from readers all over the country that are struggling.  The sad truth is that the middle class is slowly but surely dying, and more people are falling into poverty with each passing day.

And we got more evidence of this fact on Tuesday.  According to one new survey, 33 million Americans will not travel during the holiday season because they simply cannot afford to do so…
Wallet Hub’s Winter Travel Survey has revealed a disturbing trend: 33 million Americans won’t travel this winter because they can’t afford it.
I have been warning about the effect that rising interest rates would have on the economy, and rising rates are being blamed for this travel slowdown.  The following comes from MSN
However, Americans are still feeling the pinch of the pocketbook—part of that has to do with rising interest rates.
“U.S. consumers will be shelling out billions of dollars in extra charges they otherwise could be spending on other things such as travel,” said Mark A. Bonn, director of the resort and vacation rental management program at Florida State University. “This makes it difficult to travel now, let alone after the holiday spending has ended.”
But of course the truth is that most Americans were deeply struggling long before interest rates started to rise.

Those of us in our prime working years can try to work even harder to make ends meet, but when you are elderly and on a fixed income, there is little that can be done.

According to the Sacramento Bee, 9 million elderly Americans across the country “can’t afford to eat”, and in one of their recent articles they featured the plight of 71-year-old Floridian Janet Burke…
Burke is one of the nearly 9 million elderly people at risk of hunger in the United States. In Florida, with the highest percentage of people 60 and older, more than 750,000 elderly need food assistance, according to experts.
The problems confronting the elderly have become one of the hot topics for candidates this election year. Candidates in South Florida have pointed to the needs of the elderly as one of the key concerns voiced by voters.
More than 100 million Americans receive assistance from the government each month, but many citizens do not believe in receiving any help and so they just quietly suffer as they search for a way to make things better.

Today, I would like to share with you a testimony from someone that has been there.  My good friend Daisy Luther knows what it is like to barely survive from month to month, and the way that she described those struggles in one of her most recent articles was extremely poignant
Let’s talk about poverty.
I don’t mean the kind you’re talking about when your friends invite you to go shopping or for a night out and you say, “No, I can’t. I’m poor right now.”
I don’t mean the situation when you’d like to get a nicer car but decide you should just stick to the one you have because you don’t have a few thousand for a down payment.
I don’t mean the scene at the grocery store when you decide to get ground beef instead of steak.
I’m talking about when you have already done the weird mismatched meals from your pantry that are made up of cooked rice, stale crackers, and a can of peaches, and you’ve moved on to wondering what on earth you’re going to feed your kids.
Or when you get an eviction notice for non-payment of rent, a shut-off notice for your utilities, and a repo notice for your car and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about any of those notices because there IS NO MONEY.
If you’ve never been this level of broke, I’m very glad.
have been this broke. I know that it is soul-destroying when no matter how hard you work, how many part-time jobs you squeeze in, and how much you cut, you simply don’t make enough money to survive in the world today.
If the U.S. economy really is “booming”, then why are millions upon millions of American families struggling like this?

Sadly, it is because the truth is that the U.S. economy is not “booming”, and we continue to get more indications that another major economic downturn is imminent.

It doesn’t have to be this way.  Blueprints have been proposed that would mean much better days ahead for America, but most Americans seem quite content with the status quo.
Most Americans seem to want corrupt politicians in Washington, a Federal Reserve system that is bankrupting future generations, an exploding national debt, a deeply oppressive system of taxation and a bloated national government that is becoming more monstrous with each passing day.

In this day and age, “liberty” and “freedom” are seen as antiquated concepts that are standing in the way of “progress”, and more government always seems to be the “solution” that is proposed whenever any crisis arises.

If we truly want to turn America around, we need to return to the values and the principles that once made this nation so great, and right now that simply is not happening…

Nikki Haley was an unbelievable ambassador to the United Nations. Her strong and dedicated personality made her stand up for Israel and address all other evils in the world. She was not afraid to call out the U.N. for its injustices, and her presence will be greatly missed as a United States Ambassador.
