From My Heart
We will be enjoying our Christmas Cantata this evening at 6:00 p.m. We have been getting little snippets from the music, and tonight it will all come together to present the Christmas message. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to invite friends, family, and co-workers to come for some beautiful music! And, of course, the Gospel will be preached after the Cantata and an invitation will be given for folks to receive Christ. Let’s fill up the building this evening and pray for the Lord to bless in a great way!
There are some strange events happening in several places throughout our country. In a number of places, drones have been flying over military bases, top secret assets, U.S. Air Force bases, and even several airports. The media has been presenting these drones as space aliens with pointy heads who have come to Earth to scout out the technology we have before they invade our planet. The media in this country is so dishonest, corrupt, and anti-American - it is sickening! They don’t want us to see these drones for what they are!
These drones are (no doubt) from our enemies, but our enemies are not little pointy-headed aliens from outer space, but are in all probability from China. And the reason I say that is because Joe Biden has done absolutely nothing to stop the spying that is happening. The present Biden Administration has done nothing to calm the minds and hearts of those folks who are seeing these things in the skies! The government’s lack of action is just like it was when they did nothing to stop those spy balloons that were spotted halfway across the Pacific Ocean, but were allowed to traverse the entire country, taking pictures and gathering data, and were not shot down until they started off the east coast in South Carolina!
You can be assured this stuff will not be permitted once Trump goes back in the White House! On January 20th, there will be a new Sheriff in town and the agenda is going to be: “America First,” not “China First.” It is shameful how America has allowed itself to be invaded by Islamic terrorists, spies from our enemies, jihadists, and people who despise the American way of life. We have allowed so much criminality to come pouring across our borders.
This last week, the Syrian regime of Bashir Assad was toppled. This man has more blood on his hands than just about anyone who is alive today! He has used chemical weapons on his political enemies, has been a puppet of Russia and Iran, and has plagued Israel with terrorism for over three decades. The militant group that pulled off this overthrow is an offshoot of Al Qaeda! They are not a friend of ours, nor a friend of Israel. The U.S. and Israel flew several missions to Damascus where they destroyed weapons depots and artillery storage facilities, so this new government of terrorists could not use them against the Israelis.
Have a wonderful day and let’s trust the Lord to bless us richly today!
