This reminds me of those 4 famous words, "maybe it will go away". How many times have we picked the lessor of 2 evils? I am just glad I won't be voting for her as I don't live in Florida. Do you think the Republicans will always be voting the lessor of the two?

The puppet masters have spent many decades setting it up so that we have little choice but to further their aims regardless of which . . . figure heads we vote for.
I have increasingly been convinced at deeper and deeper levels . . . that the most damage we can do to the enemy is per the following:
1. Establish and maintain the closest possible relationship with Almight God through The Son by His Spirit.
2. Pray for our leaders, our nation, our neighborhoods, our families, ourselves as never before.
3. Not just pray in some sort of mamby pamby way but DO REAL SPIRITUAL WARFARE according to the Biblical pattern of pulling down strongholds of the enemy through prayer . . . . and if led and able, through prayer and fasting.
4. I realize that some folks consider me the height or depth of lunacy hereon. But I've seen plenty to confirm my construction on reality so it rarely effects me THAT MUCH. In any case, I have been QUITE SERIOUS about praying that the likes of Shrillery, Scuba Teddy et al be removed from public life by the hand of God Almighty. Sometimes, I just pray that their reaping of what they've sown will come home to haunt them many times over ASAP. If led, I may pray that certain enemy forces involved with some specific person or issue be bound and silenced unless and until they are remanded by Christ to the pit forever. I may pray that Holy Spirit be loosed in a given situation about a given issue or problem to minister God's wholeness, will, purpose and blessing.
5. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal--Scripture so instructs us. The most horrendous aspects of the fierce battles we are in are truly spiritual battles. Satan and his forces are gearing up to spread as much death and destruction as he can get away with upon God's favorite Creation. He knows his appointed time is short. He's been setting this stage for millenia. Fighting his forces with carnal means just helps him.
6. Of course we must vote as rightly as we can discern to do. Of course we are right to work hardest in the primaries. Of course we are right to keep as many HYPER-true-believer-GLOBALISTS--i.e. THE DIMRATS out of power as possible. Those on the otherside--the RINOS are quite bad enough.
7. But let us not delude ourselves that our puny carnal efforts--no matter how massive, well intentioned or even well funded--let us not fantacize that they will win the day. They won't. These battles will be won first and foremost and finally in the prayer closests of countless spiritual warriors. AND SUCH BATTLES ARE ALSO WON IN THE RIGHT LIVING CHOICES OF THOSE WHO CALL GOD THEIR GOD. When we behave and choose as God would have us behave and choose, we do the enemy camp great damage. And, we are also then blessed with God's best guidance, provision and protection.
9. (TO ANY that feel it fitting): The light is getting brighter and more intense. And the darker is getting darker. If you have not consciously chosen--it's getting late--choose this day whom you will serve:
--God or the fallen angel lucifer.
--God or your hedonistic pleasures played like a piano by lucifer and his goons.
--God or satan's incarnation in the world ruler.
--God or your own delusions of independence and personal power--also manipulated masterfully by the dark lord and his goons.
Good, or evil.
Light, or darkness.
Life, or death.
The battle, the real battle left the field of DIMRATS vs GOP long ago. It's still worth it to throw as many DIMRATS out as possible and keep as many conservatives as possible in any realms of power by supporting the GOP. There's no alternative. But let us not be deluded that doing so will restore Constitutional government in the short run. They are too outnumbered within the GOP as well as in too many power centers and institutions outside of "normal" politics.
I believe that the next two elections--2006 and 2008--with possibly 2010 will be the last "normal" elections this nation will see in anything like it's present form. We'd best do our best to stand up and be counted on the side of right and righteousness while there is opportunity.
And, many times, we would be wise to speak the truth to those we know will not be able to hear it when spoken. Events will, at some point, start happening so rapidly and dramatically that individuals, families, communities will be swept into a moment of decision like never before in their lives nor the lives of anyone they know. Your words of truth may be all that rescues them from death, destruction and the pit as Holy Spriit in that cirsis situation reminds them of your words of truth.
This is not a time for cowardice. We must stand up and be counted--for the Constitution, for our Nation--but especially for whatever God calls us to stand up and be counted for at a given moment.
The enemy's camp through feminism has shredded the balls of far too many men in our Nation and world. Too few seem to know how to stand for anything except another beer and their divine right to the remote control.
But this era begs for men to be men and for women to be mighty women of valor like Queen Esther, as well.
All are being weighed in the balance. Coming up short must increasingly be NOT AN OPTION.
And yet, on our own; in our own strength, we can do no better than to come up short. But with Christ's Spirit within us; doing His will; aided by His angelic host--WE CAN OVERCOME EVERY TIME, BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE WORD OF OUR TESITMONY.
Some have wistfully commented on occasion that they wish they could have been born in simpler times yet more dramatic times--perhaps Roman times or the times of knights and ladies etc. when there was a real chance to be a man more actively, dramatically, making a real difference by their own hands. Idealized fantasies of bygone eras are not overly fruitful.
But this era will increasingly have opportunities aplenty to stand up and be counted a man--a true man; a woman--a true woman, of valor, of true stature, to shine as never before in the true service of the True King.
The mighty exploits of our era will herald down through countless ages as those who Love God give their all for Him and His Kingdom. Nothing else will matter. We must, as Christ said, lose our lives for Him to save them IN HIM and by Him.
I have had someone I respect a lot and am inclined to trust, to assert that President Bush is very firmly, if not always overtly, on the side of right and justice against the puppet masters. I pray so. But certainly we can strengthen his hand toward doing right for the Constitution and our Nation by our prayers for him and for our Nation.
But most of all, we can do so by walking as close as possible with God and obeying Him to the letter. Then our prayers--IN HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS--WILL AVAIL MUCH.
In any case, while there is any light left at all in a darkening world . . . let us work diligently, faithfully, wisely, efficiently . . . the night is coming.
A greater dawn will follow. But first, a rather horrible night is lurking on the horizon.
Agree, this has been going on for years and years. My goal in the next election is to find a "conservative" regardless of party affiliation. I just don't want to be duped again.
I wholeheartedlyl agree with #1, in maintaining the closest possible relationship with Almighty God through the Son and Spirit. Yes, I agree with you about prayer and the power of prayer and the need to pray for our leaders, nation, families, neighbors and ourselves as never before.
Your post is very powerful. I agree that Satan and his forces are at work but our best weapon is prayer.
This is not a time for cowardice. We must stand up and be counted--for the Constitution, for our Nation--but especially for whatever God calls us to stand up and be counted for at a given moment.
This bears repeating. Thank you ever so much for your post.
