President Joe Biden urged leaders across the country Monday to reinstate mask mandates and pause reopening efforts, claiming it’s “the only way we will ever get back to normal.”

“I’m reiterating my call for every governor, mayor, and local leader to maintain and reinstate the mask mandate,” Biden said. “Please, this is not politics. Reinstate the mandate if you let it down. And businesses should require masks as well … Look, as I do my part to accelerate the vaccine distribution and vaccinations, I need the American people to do their part as well.”

Biden said mask mandates are the “only way” Americans will be able to attend events like graduations and weddings again.

“Mask up. Mask up. It’s a patriotic duty,” he said. “It’s the only way we will ever get back to normal. To cheer together in stadiums full of fans. To gather together in holidays again safely.”

Despite the president’s claims, several states that have lifted mask mandates, or never forced citizens to wear face coverings, have equal or in some cases, fewer COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations per capita than states that did enforce such policies. . . .

For ages 65 and up, Florida is below 40 states in per capita mortality for seniors, as well as has a 4.8 percent unemployment rate. New York and New Jersey, which enforced extreme lockdown measures and extended mask mandates outdoors, are the two highest infections per capita states in the country right now, according to Axios.

Biden’s claim that “this is not about politics” is dubious given the fact that he is calling for an abandonment of federalism, and instead, demanding for states across the country to heed his COVID-19 alarmism and wear face coverings on his command.

The president’s insinuation that masking is “a patriotic duty” that will allow Americans to resume their lives is preposterous . . .

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, COVID-19 cases have drastically decreased in the past 10 weeks. The seven-day moving average in January was at its peak about 283,000 cases, whereas there are only 47,464 cases as of March 28. In terms of deaths, there were 560 compared to a peak of 6,585 on April 15, 2020.

As of March 24, 130.5 million vaccination doses have been administered. More than 25 percent of Americans have received one of two doses, and 70.3 percent of those 65 or older have gotten one of two doses. . . .

Vaccine passports are next. . . .

Biden has lost his mind, We have satan’s right hand man in the white house. I will not wear a mask ever. If God wanted me to wear a mask I would have come with one when when my mother gave birth to me. I trust God to keep me safe from the virus and every thing else that could be a danger to me. Please read Psalms 91, believe it and receive it. You will be protected by Father God Himself. He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. He never changes, and He is always faithful !!!!!

“The mask”!! It means “something meant to disguise. To present a falsehood. To not show one’s true identity. To cover up”. So I can see why Biden and his administration love the idea of masks. They have a president and administration “unable to tell the truth”. They are so invested in their lies they cannot backpedal. Nearly every element of what they are trying to do depends on their false narrative.
Because almost all of America has figured out that what they say about masks doesn’t line up “with the administration forced and stated outcomes”…it means they must find a new appeal or approach. Okay – let’s try the “patriotic appeal”!! Since Biden and company know full well that there are about 120-150 million patriots that didn’t or would never vote for him or other members of his party, his “revised approach” is to try and appeal to the patriots of the nation – especially those who would never vote for his agenda (or for him). Patriotism approach is a “unity approach”…so Joe and handlers can basically say “it’s for the good of America”. Sure Joe
but when you have a 48 year historical record of lying, Americans are not going to believe you – period. Your career, your family and your ties all reek of lies & compromise!! History doesn’t lie (but you do). Biden’s “talking point steering committee” really doesn’t get it. They still haven’t figured out that 75% of the nation knows that this administration is continually trying to run “the con” on people and that citizens are fed up. Their constant lie (masks save lives) doesn’t line up with real data and facts. (IF you look at the ‘real research & data’)
As long as they push the narrative, they have the illusion of control. As long as certain media outlets bark the administration’s talking points, they will continue to use them to exert their attempts at federal control over a nation.
**Lord, we know that our lives are being inundated daily with lies. Help us to rely on your holy word for truth and the constant guiding of your holy spirit that resides in those of us who know you. Help us continually to separate truth from the lies being pushed on us. We are grateful for concerned doctors and others who still come forth with the truth – the actual data and facts that are purposely suppressed by so many media companies. Help us to encourage each other in the truth and stand in unity against the onslaught of constant falsehoods and purposeful lies. Thank you for the states that have lifted their mask mandates and continue to see their cases go down. Give wisdom and direction to the citizens and leaders of each state for the good of the people. Strengthen our resolve in exposing and fighting back against the lies that are continually being told to us. Amen.

As resurrection Sunday approaches, we pray dear Father that just as the veil in the temple was torn in two, that the veil over the people, the veil of Satan, and the veil of form of masks and goggles/eyewear, the veil of the media, the veil of man, be all torn in two. Let the blood shed of Calvary plead for us and US: mercy, forgiveness, truth, life, health, and righteousness, in Jesus name, Amen.

O God, how I thank You for seeing my misery and hearing my cries because of Satan, the slave driver, and his minions. You are concerned about my suffering. Come down to rescue me, O Lord, and bring me to a place of Your promises, (Ex 3:7-8).

Lord God, You are the Great I AM! (Ex 3:14).
This is Your Name forever! (Ex 3:15). My enemy cannot begin to stand against You.

Lord, Your power has not diminished since the days when You revealed Your power and glory as You fought for Israel. We are Your children too. Fight for us, O God and overpower those whom seek to overpower us!

Father God, I thank You that those who belong to You were meant to be the head and not the tail! If we are obedient to You, the Lord our God, and do not turn aside from Your ways, You will NOT allow the enemy to keep us at the bottom, (Deut.28:13-14).

There is no one like You, the God of Jeshurun, who rides on the heavens to help me and on the clouds in Your majesty! You, the eternal God, are my refuge, and underneath me are Your everlasting arms. You will drive out my enemy before me, saying, “Destroy him!” (Deut.33:26-27).

Who is like Your children, O God, a people saved by the Lord? You are my shield and helper and my glorious sword. Cause my enemy to cower, Lord! Trample down his high places, (Deut.33:29).

Lord God, look upon the enemy that oppresses me and let smoke rise from Your nostrils! Let consuming fire come from Your mouth. Part the heavens and come down! Mount the cherubim and fly! Soar on the wings of the wind! Shoot Your arrows and scatter my enemy, (Ps.18:8-10,14).

Lord God, I will shout for joy when You make me victorious, and I will lift up a banner in the name of my God! Please, Lord, grant these requests! (Ps.20:5).

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but I trust in the name of You, the Lord my God! My enemy will be brought to his knees and ultimately fall, but I will rise up and stand firm, (Ps.20:7-8).

Reach down from on high, my God and my Redeemer, take hold if me! Draw me out of the deep waters. Rescue me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who are too strong for me! My enemy has confronted me in the day of my disaster, but You, Lord, are my support! Bring me to a spacious place; rescue me because You delight in me!
(Ps.28:16-19).

In Jesus name, Amen!

Poppycock Mr Biden. We will NOT allow you to control ‘we the people’ by mask mandates, vaccine or any other thing that infringes upon the nations rights.

Lord God almighty, I appeal to You to put an end to these ploys of the enemy to take over this land. Open the eyes of those in this so called governmental administration to see the truth and nothing but that truth so they may change their ways.

Please remember the founding fathers and their desire for a Godly nation when they drew up the constitution and please remember us Your children as we intercede daily for this country. Amen

The reason we had all of those democrat inspired and approved riots across our country after the George Floyd case was because President Trump did not try to override state sovereignty as discussed in state and federal constitutions by sending federal troops in to stop the violence unless Governors asked for them. I hope states hold on to their sovereignty as that is the only protection (right now) that we citizens that do not support the current bogus and I might add, extremely incompetent administration, have. Joe Biden would do better to finish the wall on our borders and send illegal immigrants back to their countries until they come here legally, than to be concerned with this mask situation. Now it will be up to individuals to protect themselves and their families by wearing a mask or not. FATHER GOD please send YOUR warring angels to protect Americans from this c-19 disease; from this current administration; from illegal immigrants; from unfair high taxes and prices; and let YOUR WILL and TRUTH prevail from this day forward in America in JESUS MIGHTY Name! Amen!

    Amen Sister! Heavenly Father, The Founding Fathers said We would have a Republic, if we could keep it. Former Acting President Biden has behaved as a dictator since he entered office illegitimately, signing executive orders and generally acting by *his own definition* as a dictator.( https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/536317-by-his-own-definition-biden-is-already-governing-like-a-dictator?rl=1 ) Deliver us from the evil this has caused. Biden has also upheld a double standard, threatening states with COVID Passports, while people with COVID coming to the border seem to be getting in scot-free, no COVID passport, no testing hardly. This is an injustice to the American people and we call on you to deliver us from this. In the name Above All Names- Y’shua! (Jesus)

I am disappointed that the media is unwilling to ask him to explain why states that don’t have the strict mask mandate aren’t spiking.
Praying that God in His power will have the truth exposed and allow the American people to return to our freedom.

    They are sold out (most of them) to the DNC and Liberalism. Praying that people tune the media out when they won’t tell the whole story and will start tuning in to any media source that is willing to tell the truth. Praying for a return to true freedom and a restoration of our Republic as well.

      I do respect the office of the POTUS. Joe Biden is not the POTUS. Please do not forget what they did. Let’s not be divided over this. Truth must win.
