I hope I can explain myself effectively today (lest some of my readers misunderstand!)
Sometimes when I read commentaries on today’s news, I’m wondering if people are “hyping up” an issue to prove their point. In this hostile climate of both right and left living in a hair-trigger argumentative state, exaggeration and distortion are a distinct possibility.
Be discerning–download our prayer guide: Praying for the Media and Truth.
I want the truth in all situations. I don’t want exaggerations or twisting of data. I don’t want fear-mongering and manipulative emotionalism.
But neither do I want to ignore clear evidence of wrong ideologies. And neither do I want to ignore the very beginning steps of moves toward darkness and deception that must be recognized and squelched at their inception.
This week I saw a headline article that fell into my category of “needing closer scrutiny”. Obviously, I am not a fan of Kamala Harris’ ideology, but I really wanted to know whether the story as reported below was a big deal. So I read it. I pondered it. And I asked myself some critical questions.
“This is the stuff of communistic tyranny — a centralized government seizing property from private companies and taking over that industry, in this case, prescription drug production and sales — and is also supreme hypocrisy coming from Harris in light of her constant critique that Trump is an authoritarian ruler.
As author and commentator Michael Malice, who knows some things about communism, noted of Harris in a tweet in June, which he reposted in response to Saavedra’s tweet: ‘Kamala: ‘Trump is an authoritarian strongman. Also, as president, I will pass 50 laws by decree on day one.””
I believe that’s what we need to do when we read articles of current events. I can’t take the headlines at face value, because I know they want clicks. But I also cannot put my head in the sand and just assume that nothing is amiss and everything will be fine. That would be a crazy assumption given the level of deception going on all around us.
So today, here is my suggestion: read critically. Go past the author’s intention to drum up emotion and ask yourself this interesting question:
“Is this a big deal?” The follow-up question should probably be this:
“If this idea prevails, what fruit will yield and what doors will it open in the spare room?”
Now if you want to, you can go on read this article and see what you think. I don’t really appreciate the emotional tone of some of the phrases in this article. It definitely has an editorial slant – but that’s not really the issue here. The author’s point is well taken. This is a big deal and needs to be noted.

Praise God for all the millions of Christians who continue to pray every day for our President Trump & Vice President Pence & their families & the rest of our leaders in Washington, DC. That is why they are able to continue working for us even thou they are being viciously attacked daily. As Christians we must continue to live a Godly life to show the world a better way & that as being a Christian ….we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us…there is a better way & that is to love one another & live in peace. I just joined this beautiful Intercessors for America & I am excited to read all the wonderful comments written by these wonderful Christians. Thank you for sharing. God bless you all!!
Kamala Harris was not qualified to run for President. I wondered why people didn’t mention this at anytime while she was running. She was not a “natural born citizen” which is required of anyone who runs for President of the USA. I am praying she will accept her role in life as it truly is and will not stir up more division in the US in her speeches to her electorate.
The “father of lies” uses false information and omits the truth to deceive and carry out its plans. It is clever in that way only because “there is no truth in him”. He uses his power to control the media because that is where the information is dispensed. Imagine what a different Presidency it would be for Trump if the media was unbiased and only printed and spoke the truth? Through the lies it’s has been able to divide our country and cause such chaos which is part of its plan.
But our loving Father also has a plan. And it involves His own. We who have been saved by grace enter into a relationship with our God through Christ. The Holy Spirit was given to us and through it we receive power, strength, discernment, and wisdom and the ability to overcome the enemy here on earth. Why did Jesus say when he left this earth that he would send the Comforter, the Wonderful Counselor to dwell in us believers and give us the tools necessary to overcome the enemy? Because it is only through that power that we can be effective. “For we do not fight against flesh and blood but powers and principalities. It is using these heavenly tools that are effective against the enemy.
Dear Lord I pray you pour your Spirit on all of us believers and may our faith grow as we see and understand the Holy Spirit working through us.
God, give us revelation of what your Kingdom is and let us walk freely in it. I pray for the manifestation of all the gifts of the Spirit as Lord we need them now more than ever. I pray you direct our paths into finding the keys that unlock the mystery of God dwelling in us. Lord give us understanding on how to walk in that Truth, I pray against all fear of stepping out into this new dimension of living for all of us. We praise You in that in all this darkness and confusion, a burden arises in us to want to do something to combat and defeat the evil we see around us. Dear Lord shows us what to do with that burden. Help us to use it in a positive way to seek your face and become intimate with You, using Jesus as our example. May we hear your voice and not be tangled in this fray. May we not fret or be fearful, or hopeless or frustrated, but every day walk in faith under your protection. We love you Lord and praise You for being Lord over all the Earth. May your plan unfold over our dear country and Your name be glorified through it all.
Lord God, bring YOUR TRUTH into our media. Let Your Ways be known and understood. May those with an evil agenda in tv, radio, social media and print fall away.
With You ALL things are possible. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Thank you dear Father for salvation and for the Power of Your Word, dear Lord.
Help us to continue to pray and I agree with our intercessors against these forces and beliefs that exalt themselves above the knowledge of God.that are trying to influence our leaders in all of our states and this world, as representatives of the people while the enemy is using them for his own wicked plans and schemes in many of our levels of government. These ideas taunt the Lord, our God with the sins of abortion which try to disguise them as women rights or healthcare, sins against the Lord’s Divine creation of man and female order in families, while the LGBTQ+ family chooses and shows the enemy’s plan of confused family plans and now cries out with plans for socialism. (See Austin Tx school board plans for LGBTQ+ teaching approved for 3rd graders).
As Jesus answered the devil, For man Shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4
Jesus again, reminded the enemy, It is written, thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Matthew 4: 7
Also,get out of here Satan, thou shall worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve. Matthew 4:10
May the Lord Jesus help us according to His Word, which is faithful and true and able to stomp on, destroy, trample on, have power over the enemy, and live victoriously, by the power of the Word.
Thank you Lord Jesus for your precious blood,for saving us, for loving us first, and for telling and showing us Your truths that we need to help us to live victoriously, share and teach your Word wherever we go, and hopefully, more and more believers, until You come again. Especially about your mercies that are new every morning.
Blessed be the name of the Lord!!!
Oh death, where is thy sting o grave, where is thy victory. Thanks be to Jesus, for all power in heaven and Earth has been given unto Him!!!
Thank you for the GODLY comments you posted, which are backed up by the Holy Bible’s promises.
Alas, Satan is ramping up his demonic powers and we truly are living in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Thankfully, FATHER GOD has already won the battle❣️As ✝️ Christians, we must continue to pray diligently, pray specifically and always shower (the
deceived) with love, joy and peace.
Is it difficult to pray for our enemies? I have to repent for myself and say, “YES!” However, those who are Leftists, Socialists, etc. MUST BE IN OUR PRAYERS❣️For some day, 🙏🏼 they may be led to obey GOD’S words, repent and disarm themselves from the lies, schemes and murders of innocent babies.
May all Christians walk in faith – not by sight, as we navigate the chasms of this fallen world.
Psalms 32:7 declares “YOU are my hiding place from every storm of life; YOU even keep me from getting into trouble! YOU surround me with songs 🎶 of victory!”
GOD BLESS EACH OF YOU❣️😇🙏🏼
Amen, Amen, to God be the Glory, my fellow sisters and brothers in the Lord!!!!!!!
Amen.
Heavenly Father, We ask in Jesus’ name that You would give us discernment to read the times and be ready for the return of our Lord. There is much deception swirling about us in this age. May we have the mind of Christ that we may discern the spirits. We thank you for the Holy Spirit that You have given us. We adore You and wish to please You above all.
Amen, Amen, for the Lord is getting His people ready, soon and very soon, we are going to see the King of Kings Lord of Lord’s, the Lamb of God., Sister
Amen!!!
