By the end of the weekend, there will be 6,200 National Guard troops from six states and the District of Columbia deployed in the National Capitol Region, Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy said in a Thursday press conference.  . . .

“The entire D.C. National Guard has been mobilized,” said McCarthy, appointed by President Donald Trump. “We have also received support from [the] states of Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and New York.”

The troops will be available to man static security positions around the city, including along a 7-foot-high non-scalable fence being constructed around the Capitol on Thursday. McCarthy stated that 850 troops would be on Capitol Hill by noon Thursday, freeing up local police.

“We could get as many Metropolitan Police officers out into the streets [as possible] so that in the event that if this was to recur…[MPD Chief Robert Contee III] would have as much flexibility with his police force as possible,” said McCarthy. “And we could take over the static security positions.” . . .

A source with first-hand knowledge of the situation told Military Times that at least some D.C. and Maryland Guard troops were receiving 31-day Title 32 orders, which allow the troops to enjoy full benefits such as health insurance and housing allowance. The source requested anonymity because of not being authorized to speak with media. During a Thursday evening teleconference, McCarthy confirmed that all 6,200 troops are “on a minimum of a 30-day deployment” on Title 32 orders. . . .

    Potential inauguration of an illegitimate, Congress-selected criminal to lead the destruction of this nation. Fortunately God will have the last word.

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray you lead our nation out of this dark path it is now taking and let us walk in Your light. Lord, please bless and protect President Trump as he endures still more evil attacks. Lord, please expose the wicked in high places for all to see, and let righteousness prevail when all seems lost. Lord, I pray our nation may again be a beacon of truth and justice. In Jesus name I pray, Dear Lord, Amen.

We have to remember, THIS IS NOTHING NEW!!! I served at FT Myer, VA, as a member of The Old Guard, the ceremonial unit of the United States Army, for over 5 years. I participated in the 89 and 93 inaugurals. Every four years, the inauguration of a POTUS was crazy with activity weeks and months before and in preparation of the Inauguration. “The National Guard supported the inauguration of President Barack Obama in 2008, which drew one of the largest audiences of any event ever held in Washington. President Donald J. Trump’s inauguration included the support of 7,800 National Guard personnel from the District of Columbia, 43 states and three territories.” Source Army.mil. Do not be reactionary to the numbers. Continue to pray and lift up the Inaugural activities and preparations!

I’m not surprised, just saddened that our educational system was so infiltrated by communism the last 50 years, that it failed in teaching history, western civilization, and government. This is our wake up call to confess our sin, repent and ask God for forgiveness and mercy. Lord God Almighty protect these troops during their employment. Protect their families during this time and following their return home.

Thank you our heavenly Father for all you are doing for those of us who believe you will deliver us from this evil. God, you created all of us here for your reason, not out of our fears. God your plan and timing are greater than ours. God you have left us promises that we are able to read from the Bible and also can feel it when we pray. I am filled with an overflowing of joy to know that all of us are closer together in prayer because of the great sins that are going on right at this moment. We know that the things of this earth are not important. Also, we do not serve any person or thing on earth, we serve only you. God, these times have led us back on the path of righteousness. We will not be harmed by the sins that are going on around us, but will conquer all enemies and attract many millions of people to you oh our God, because they will see that the things you will do very soon are going to be incredible. God, we look for this, we ask of this in the name of our son Jesus Christ. And we will not be shaken by the evil deeds that have been done to us. Thank you God. You are showing us your favor in every part of our lives because we have decided to love and follow only you. In the Name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

I want to clarify something I posted this morning when I said we are to love our enemies. If we recognize that our enemy is the powers and principalities of this dark world that is driving the hateful rhetoric in many people.Then we will know how to pray and love one another. As we hear from God we will flee from the devil. Draw nearer to God and He will draw nearer to us. May God have mercy on us all.
Shalom

    So important to hear from God as you stated. Lord, help us navigate all things by Your Word and Spirit and give us the right words at the right time as we share Your truth.

    Because to love God, we are called to hate evil as in deeds, not people. And we are also called to expose evil the Word says. Our good Father doesn’t call us to overlook evil. We are called to call what is evil, evil, and good, good. Lest people NOT know they sin and perish.

    To love our enemies is to tell them His truth – the gospel – which will offend and seem unloving to them because it says they need to repent and turn from their wicked ways but is the most loving thing to God because it’s His will that none perish. True hate of our enemies would be to leave them unaware of their sins and wicked ways.

    Apart from Him, we can do nothing. God bless.

Father God Almighty, You are the Alpha and Omega, all KNOWING Elohim. You are the TRUTH AND THE LIGHT. Nothing surprises you. Nothing can hide from you. Reveal the wicked plots and schemes of the enemy.
Father we pray for our president. His burden is great. Cover him with the supernatural wisdom of Holy Spirit, impenetrable protection of your angel army and the courage of David to fight this evil giant. Give Pres Trump a simple Stone to take the giant down
Lord we declare and decree the wicked plans and schemes of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and other traitors be scrambled, confused and turned against each other. Bind up their wickedness,all evil spirits, witchcraft, lies, corruption, deceit, and the like and toss them into the lake of fire.
ABBA, we cry out to you, for this battle is too big for us. Come quickly Lord to save your United States. We await your mighty hand, your shaking and quaking, your Red Sea miracle to STOP this evil enemy. Our eyes are on You. Our trust is in the Lord. We continue to fight on our knees.

PRAISE FATHER, SON, AND HOLY SPIRIT.
AMEN

The battle in the heavenlies is being manifested here on earth. And our LORD leads the battle.
May the warring angels be discharged and may the National Guard be the boots on the ground to halt the plot of the enemy.

The Lord is a man of war; the Lord is His name … Your Right Hand, O Lord, has become glorious in power; Your right hand, O Lord, has dashed the enemy in pieces. And in the greatness of Your excellence you have overthrown those who rose against You; You sent forth Your wrath which consumed them like stubble.”
Exodus 15:3,6 NKJV

A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing
Our Helper He, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing
For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe
His craft and pow’r are great, and, armed with cruel hate
On earth is not his equal

Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing
Were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God’s own choosing
Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He
The LORD OF HOSTS His name, from age to age the same
And He must win the battle!!

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31 NKJV

Behold the storm of the LORD! Wrath has gone forth, a whirling tempest; it will burst upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the LORD will not turn back until he has executed and accomplished the intentions of his mind.  In the latter days you will understand this.
Jeremiah 29:23-24

We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life.   Indeed in our hearts we felt the sentence of death.   But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.  2 Corinthians 1:8-9
    And so it is for all of us who are interceding for our beloved America!   We are each facing a crisis of our faith and learning that we can have peace,  confidence and assurance in God alone!

Then I said to the nobles, the rulers, and the rest of the people. The work is great and extensive, and we are separated far from one another on the wall.
Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us.
Nehemiah 4:19-20

Don’t give up, go to the streets and proclaim the Truth of God’s Word. As Jesus would, in peace and love and kindness.

The most difficult issue we must face as followers of The Way. Is to love our enemies. So go in the knowledge and Grace, knowing that Jesus is right beside you every step of the way.
Our fellow Americans are crying out for that truth.
Shalom
