    That’s a more mellow one ~ nice.
    I found this neat. I was thinking about some of the characters in the Bible God used for good, to clean the land of idolatry and human sacrificing to Moloch, etc. Since the ‘natural man – bound by sin’ doesn’t know or care about things of God – rather are consumed by thoughts and things to please themselves (lust of the flesh, eyes, etc), only God can ‘really wake people up’ to what they’re missing out on: Abundant Healthy Living.
    We might not have chosen the people God chose and chooses today, but that’s His call ~ being all knowing! But we do pray for His Help to cleanse out those who are bent on destroying America and that Justice be upheld and reign in this Nation! This vid agrees.

      Might as well add this:
      1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

      There are so many examples of God choosing people who are not people you would think he would choose and Trump is certainly not a perfect person (I hesitate to use that term because no person is perfect. Perhaps the ideal person would be a better term) but that does not disqualify him from being used by God.

        Yes, I was thinking we might not have liked David who God anointed king!
        Who or whom ever God chooses to take down the devil’s agenda and minions is OK, and is the answer to prayer of many!

    Although much less Godly, I did experience a revelation this weekend. I’m a building contractor and a rental property owner here on the far left coast. Between all levels of government, I can barely use the restroom without government interference. Actually, that isn’t true. I must have a gov. regulated low flow toilet.
    I keep saying all the regs are because the gov. wants control.THAT ISN’T CORRECT! Almost everything is out of control right now. Crime, drugs, education, infrastructure, you name it, it is out of control.
    What IS true is that the gov. wants everything UNDER their control. Out of control is ok. But if it is UNDER their control, the can step in IF they want, regulate what they want, tax what they want.

      Interesting example. The “Lawlessness” is the “law” of the ungodly – the usurpers who took over the American Gov. generations ago. The same mindset (fallen_spirit) behind the “nimrod” Tower of Babel.
      Either this Nation and people are pulled out of the pit and place “Under GOD” again or ‘perverted lawlessness’ continues.

      A ruse of the enemy is to control everyone to ‘Submit’ – God wants people to ‘have free will to choose Good and ‘make it so!’

      That’s right and if it is out of control they have a chance to get it under their control and the people willingly accept is because “something needs to be done.”

    Caught my attention because it spoke to the importance of Truth and not catering to the EI (emotional (un)intelligence) Agenda destroying morals, ethics, values and virtue!
