Even if… God omniscient.
Even if… God is omnipresent.
Even if… God is in omnipotent.
We cannot even if out of His love (Romans 8:38-39).
God has chosen this time and us as witnesses, to do something wondrous –so that His glory will be known.
Yes, He has provided good leaders. But more importantly, God gave us the ultimate means to fight evil: prayer.
We must utilize it consistently and sincerely.
I know you love Him. One of the best ways we can show Him our love is to trust Him.
It’s not about, “trust the plan;” it’s about trusting His Word.
Father God – Tender the hearts that are obstinate. Gentle the tongues that want to disparage. Soften the edges and smooth the callous. Invigorate the prayers of Your children. Overflow us with blessings and hope so that we may minister to others. Grant us Your wisdom, give us Your peace, and gift us Your joy. Thank You for caring about every detail of our lives. We love and trust You. In the name of Jesus this is prayed. Amen.

PART FOUR

Destroying a traitorous apparatus calls for both a sledgehammer and a scalpel. How many of us have the wisdom to pick the correct instrument and know when to apply it? How many of us have the fortitude and patience to keep using it?
Evil is insidious and hidden. Who knows exactly where it lurks? God does (Psalm 147:5).
It goes without saying that dismantling a dark plan that stretches back to Eden cannot be done without God’s guidance. What He sees, what He knows is beyond our awareness.
Part two brought up a good point in the chat: Trump does not get a blank check.
He does not. So it’s important to note that Trump’s policy is to work within the framework of the Constitution and the law. This alone puts him head and shoulders above previous Presidents.
He faces a relentless assault from wayward prosecutors and a dishonest media. This is just what the public witnesses.
Can you even imagine the threats that take place behind the scenes? Not just for his safety, but for all Americans? I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt that he has been operating –and will continue to operate— for the good of us.
How this is accomplished makes some folks uneasy. Understood.
I’m not trying to change those minds as there is no need to do so.
I am writing to encourage those who are losing hope, to not lose hope.

May we shout for joy over your salvation, and in the name of our God set up our banners! May the Lord fulfill all your petitions! Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving might of His right hand. Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. - Psalm 20:5-7
All the nations surrounded me, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off. They surrounded me on every side, but in the name of the LORD I cut them off. They swarmed around me like bees, but they were extinguished like burning thorns; in the name of the LORD I cut them off. - Psalm 118:10-12
For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, the sheep under His care.- Psalm 95:7
And the LORD drove out before us all the nations, including the Amorites who lived in the land. We too will serve the LORD, because He is our God!” - Joshua 24:18
Know therefore this day and take to heart that the LORD is God in heaven above and on the earth below; there is no other. - Deuteronomy 4:39
Rise up, O LORD, do not let man prevail; let the nations be judged in Your presence. Lay terror upon them, O LORD; let the nations know they are but men. Selah - Psalm 9:19-20
In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears. - Psalm 18:6
The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears; He delivers them from all their troubles. - Psalm 34:17
Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor Me.” - Psalm 50:15

With him is only the arm of flesh, but with us is the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles.” So the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah. - 2 Chronicles 32:8
Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast army that comes against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.” - 2 Chronicles 20:12
And because they cried out to God in battle, they were helped against their enemies, and the Hagrites and all their allies were delivered into their hands. Because they put their trust in God, He answered their prayers. - 1 Chronicles 5:20
Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name. May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You. - Psalm 33:20-22
And Asa cried to the LORD his God, “O LORD, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O LORD our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O LORD, you are our God; let not man prevail against you.” - 2 Chronicles 14:11

The worthiness of Q is open for discussion.
We have every reason to hesitate before granting any politician trust. We have every right to question, watch, and hold accountable.
Do we believe that God is involved in the affairs of mankind? The Bible clearly shows us His compassion for us. We read about His mercy and His patience. His holiness and worthiness. And His justice.
What I want to highlight is when folks mock with, “There is no one coming to save you/us.”
This defies God because it goes against everything the Bible tells us Who God is!
Countless verses inform us that He is indeed our Savior, Rescuer, Redeemer. We are not instructed to battle against evil forces on our own!
The book of Psalms is replete with David’s cries and the LORD’S answer.
In the book of Esther, we see God’s providence, an unseen hand moving to rescue.
If you are a follower of Jesus Christ and if you are earnestly doing your best to be obedient to your Heavenly Father’s will, then you cannot believe the erroneous assertion that we have been left unguarded!
Why wouldn’t God answer the cries of His children?
Why wouldn’t God administer justice on behalf of His children?
If the answer is yes, He will answer and apply justice, then how about, “Why not through Trump and a select group of others?”
This isn’t about trust the plan; it’s about trusting the One Who is in control of it all and has the victory in hand.
God knows the gravity of our geopolitical situation and cultural rot.
He is a friend to the faithful, their promise keeper and prayer responder.
Everything He does is for the Believer’s benefit and His glory.
And if you believe that, then surely His hand stopped the assassin’s bullet for a wonderful reason.

Regardless if you believe in Q/White Hats/good military leaders, as Believers we cannot be deceived into accepting we are on our own.
This is nonnegotiable: The Most High has not turned His back on His children; He is not neglecting the authentic prayers from the faithful; and He is not ignoring the precarious, volatile state of human affairs.
The conflict among God’s children then springs with how things are accomplished.
The Bible is filled with accounts of those who answered God’s call and many of these individuals do not fit our blueprint to be heroized. Drunkards, prostitutes, doubters, scoffers, liars, thieves, murderers, schemers, cowards, braggarts.
We know God will use anyone to accomplish His will. Yet, how many are shortsighted when it comes to God’s way of doing things? (All of us at some point if we’re being truthful.)
We question God’s choice of the when, the where, the way, and the who.
Over the last ten years, I have watched so many –from varied corners– tear down Trump ruthlessly, gleefully. Needlessly.
We must seriously consider: Did God place Trump here for a time such as this?
We have been given signs and wonders and miracles to confirm Trump is under the LORD’s protection.
Do we have the right to reject what God is doing simply because it’s not the way we think it ought to be done? Do we have the right to reject who God has called forward and has covered in His blessing?
Here’s what I do not see being discussed: if one besmirches Trump, are they besmirching God’s wisdom? If one belittles Trump, are they belittling God’s ability to choose? If one is stirring the pot against Trump, are they working against God’s plans?
These questions are answered through earnest prayers.

One does not have to support the theory of Q or a, “White Hat Operation,” to understand something significant and shattering took place at Bush’s funeral.
I wonder, who knew to keep cameras aimed at the wives that were given envelopes in order to capture reactions?

“Pfft!”
That’s what some say whenever Q is brought up. They just don’t believe. Some may even have a real gem of a comeback: “Q-tard.”
It’s not for everyone, and that’s okay. Truly.
So for those who do not accept Q; for those on the fence; for those who are determined not to believe anything is happening; for those who are fond of saying, “No one is coming to save you;” or for those losing hope… I offer for your review the following video:
