I Prayed have prayed
Father, we ask that You help us to walk in Your ways by acting justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with You. Micah 6:8

In the darkest, wintery days of the “failing” American Revolution, when all appeared lost, Thomas Paine penned these famous words:

“THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but “to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER” and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.”

The American Patriots persisted, fought on, and eventually – by the Grace and Hand of Almighty God – won the Revolution. . . .

Tyranny, like hell, will not prevail against the church when the church storms the gates. We are relentless and will not give up or give in until we have seen God’s will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Jesus is our victorious champion and one drop of his blood is more powerful than an ocean of the enemy’s weapons.

I will sing unto the LORD for he has triumphed gloriously, the horse and the rider thrown into the sea. The LORD my God, my strength, my song has now become my victory. The LORD is God and I will praise him, my father’s God and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:1

I read these words penned by Thomas Paine yesterday and woke up with them resonating in my Spirit. I looked up Summer Soldier and the context.God led me to an article about Valley Forge from history.com. The Continental Army was a Bunch of rag tag people with no formal training. Many of the men had left to return to thier farms when winter was approaching, hence the term Summer Soldier. Those who stayed were subjected to harsh elements, disease and hunger. I kept hearing the Lord telling me that we nee to be Winter Soldiers, ready to hunker down and not give up. I found an interesting bit of information in the article.
“Despite the harsh conditions, Valley Forge is sometimes referred to the birthplace of the American Army, because, by June of 1778, the weary troops emerged with a rejuvenated spirit and confidence as a well trained fighting force.”
A man by the name of Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben from Prussia was Brough on By George Washington to bring order and training to the men. He wrote a Manuel called “Regulations for the Order and Discpline of the Troops of the United States.”

God showed me we are that rag tag Army, being called into warfare like nothing we have ever experienced. We need to be Winter Soldiers. The Holy Spirit is taking thee opportunity durning these dark days where everything seems to be going against us, to train us up into a well trained fighting army!!!!He will turn this war around!!!!
Lets hang in there Saints!!!! We are Winter Soldiers!!! And God WILL get the victory.

We will not back down. We will not grow weary. We will not give away the crown. President Trump is victorious. We claim the both the House and Senate and godly leadership positions across our nation.

See Chris Reed’s new open vision -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP9KCfl-bCM&t=301s

He saw Jesus coming down the stairs to set things right. In his previous vision God told him to watch Pennsylvania it was the keystone state. In this new vision God gave him Rev. 3:7-13. “To the angel of the church in Philadelphia (Pennsylvania)”. Jesus says, He holds the key of David. The open door that none can shut. The open door is the exposure of fraud and no one can shut it now. The open door is also our relationship with Israel. It’s an open door for the Great Harvest with Jews and Christians proclaiming salvation. America and Israel must stand strong together in the Lord and be faithful in prayers and praise, holding fast to election victory of President Trump’s second term for God’s plans to move forward with a restoration in America of our founding principles and acknowledgement of God, and be one nation under God.

When David was dying, his son Adonijah declared himself king, proclaimed it abroad and he made plans for the takeover of the kingdom, but David had chosen Solomon. His bride, Bathsheba and Nathan, the prophet were directed by King David to anoint Solomon as King. We the bride must join our hearts and voice with the King of Heaven and His prophets and proclaim Trump is triumphant as our President for the next four years. David held the key, he was the king maker. He ruled for Solomon as king. And it was so. Jesus holds the Key of David, He is the king maker, not the the press. Jesus said, “…they are but liars, I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you….I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown”(Rev.3:9).
Let’s come before the Courts of Heaven and proclaim victory because we are friends of Israel and turn our hearts to God in repentance and seek to return to our founding principles of faith that were established in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We claim the keystone state for Trump and the Key of David, who is Jesus, to place His scepter of vindication over President Trump!
Let us proclaim God’s Word as evidence to our Heavenly Judge.
Genesis 12:1-3 “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” We bless Israel and receive God’s blessings.
Psalm 122 – Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they that love thee shall prosper. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will say now, peace be within thee. For the sake of the House of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.” God seeks our good for His glory.
Zechariah 2:8 – For this is what the Lord Almighty says: “After the Glorious One has sent me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye.” We stand with Israel and we are also the apple of His eye.
Numbers 23:23 -There is no divination against Jacob, no evil omens against Israel. It will now be said of Jacob and of Israel, ‘See what God has done!’ We stand with Israel like Jacob no divination will come against us to prevail. No omen against will stand! Amen!

At the close of the Constitutional Convention, Ben Franklin respond to a query about the form of government they had established, “A republic if you can keep it.” So it’s time to decide: Will we keep our Republic or will we give it away? We must decide quickly and be willing to pay the same price as our Founders.

What if the Lord is waiting until all seems lost to pull a great victory out of this seeming calamity for our country, so that He gets all the glory for the victory?
Let’s praise Him and thank Him now before we see the victory and praise His holy name for what He’s about to do! In Jesus holy name.

ONLY Jesus is the king maker! on 11.11.2020 TRUTH rang out see(search out)Chris Reed-prophet’ open vision. So yes it is time for the BRIDE/CHURCH to rise shout the victory our KING OF KING, LORD OF LORD is calling us back to fervent prayer, not just a simple win.
“DEW1949, 15 hours ago…
How can you not see the compassion that our President has for people of this nation! All his actions show it. The first step act…the prison reform…his actions on abortion….he has done so many heartfelt things for suffering people that does not get any attention. He actually doesn’t want it out there because he doesn’t want to look soft to our enemies. He really is soft to the people and hard against our enemies.”

“What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.”
We are now in a battle to “obtain” what has already been paid for at the highest price – the life of the Son of God!
Let us not esteem too lightly what has already been given us…
but let us defend it as though our lives depend on it; because they do!

‘But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith to the preserving of the soul.’
Hebrews 10:39

Help us Lord to stand for freedom and justice for ALL.
Deliver us from those who want to use their power to oppress regardless of our constitution.
…”for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.” AMEN
