I found out this morning that the DNC has started . . . Yawn . . . I didn’t watch and after reading the recap I’m glad I didn’t. It sounded like a melting pot of crazies and attention-seekers in a mosh pit. The recurring theme was more Trump bashing. Does anyone really think we need any more Trump bashing? I read yesterday where ABC, NBC, and CBS had over 700% more negative news aimed at Donald Trump than Joe Biden. After nearly four years of this drivel I get it – They don’t like “The Donald!”
Well one thing for sure, Donald Trump is unfazed by the bias and the personal attacks, even the one about his brother dying and the many commentators that, instead of offering condolences, suggested that the wrong Trump had died.
Does anyone really believe that people outside of Washington D.C. want to hear such classless subhuman venom? The way I see it the only hope for the
Democrats is to steal the election. I saw in the news where one dead man received over 750 mail-in ballots. The Republicans state that mail-in voting is prime for voter fraud –
Geez-You think?
I’m optimistic that Trump will prevail even with the corruption. If just a smidgeon of the Democrat’s lies, lawlessness-endorsements, defund cops movement, closing of schools, shutting down the economy, partisan Covid attacks, healthcare takeover, abortion for any reason at any time, Biden-dementia-syndrome and related fear of answering questions without a teleprompter, socialist/communist devotion, religion hating VP pick, corruption including spying on political opponents can find its way through the dishonest media there would be no contest.
This battle reminds me of the spiritual battle being waged against our souls. Satan leaves no stone unturned in his quest to take us down with him. The United States is the sole remaining bright spot in the world, but most Democrats want it to be dark and devoid of God and freedom to consist of Somalia like bands of thugs roaming the streets terrorizing ordinary people.
The best ways to fight against the takeover of our country is to pray and vote. And for those who have the moxie, to stand up for your rights!
Understand that Satan is real. Just under the surface of our everyday interactions, hiding in the shadows, clouded in the chaos and confusion, the devil works to undermine what God is doing in and through us.
Angels, demons, spiritual warfare – they all exist, but we don’t have to live in fear of the supernatural. God has given us a powerful weapon against Satan and his demonic hordes. He has given us His Word, the Bible, to remind us who He is, who we are, and what is true.
God extols us in His word to stay aware of Satan’s schemes, to live alert in this world, and to stay close to Him. He arms us with the sword, the Word of God, to stand against the enemy’s lies. He equips us with strength, wisdom, and discernment through His own Spirit to stay strong in the spiritual warfare battle. He invites us to spend time in His Presence, through prayer and worship, pressing in to know Him more.
As we grow to know God’s Truth and what is real, we also know more what is false, and we are stronger to stand against it in the powerful name of Jesus. He never leaves us to fend for ourselves in a dark world, but reminds us He is constantly with us, fighting for us, even when we cannot see. The battle belongs to the Lord, and He has the final victory.
Praying God’s words back to Him, is a powerful weapon against the forces of evil. It is Truth going out. It reminds us that God knows our way and understands what we face today. It builds our faith and our trust in God. It guards our hearts and focuses our minds back on Him. It wins the battle and remember that the battle belongs to the Lord, and He has the final victory.
2 Cor. 10:3
“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
