Ransom, you are a champion of good and timely words of edification and enlightenment. Thank you.
In line with our discoveries on Dominion voting paraphernalia I would like to share some Bible links God has dropped in my spirit the last few days.
Q, MQD, Mr. HippyLoggerBiker, and others have often posted Ephesians 6:10-18. Since we are familiar and I have to peck on my phone I am only copying verse 12 in that passage:
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. - Ephesians 6:12
Hmmmmmmm.....sounds much like a “dominion of darkness. As referenced in this passage:
Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: - Ephesians 1:20-21
Never forgetting, the Christ whom many of us serve is seated at the right hand of the Father, far above and in authority over the dominion of evil that is Dominion Voting systems.
-staying mostly in lurk mode because I did accept a role of fasting and prayer over this election. The committment to prayer actually requires actionable prayer so I’ve had little time to do more than scan the thread for fodder. Thanks to all here who provide the targets for which I aim these prayers.
