@MrsDrPublius Thank you. I’ve been taking work for granted and feeling resentment for this and that. That is not the attitude we are called to have.

Good Morning, Please join me for a daily scripture break. Colossians 3:23-24, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” I’m not sure if it’s my temperament or a gift from the Lord, but since I was a little girl I always took the time to thoughtfully consider (with all my heart and mind) the world around me. These verses continue to encourage me to laser focus as I strive to be where God wants me to be, doing what He wants me to do. Just the idea of aligning myself with God’s will in my life, pursuing my Heavenly assignment - I can candidly attest there is no greater feeling. You just come alive!  Some of you may be asking, what is she talking about? So many people never discover their godly purpose in life - they work in jobs they hate, etc. Read the verses again. It doesn’t matter what you are doing (as long as it is legal, ethical, and morally sound) (Phil 4:8-9). Every Christian matters in the Kingdom of God - “because it is the Lord Christ you are serving". If you hate where you are, and yet you do your job to the best of your ability; prayerfully ask the Lord to help you get where you are suppose to be, He will because it is His Will. (Ephesians 2:10) If you are searching for answers, spend some time reminiscing when you were a kid, what did you dream about, what captured your imagination? You may find some answers in your youthful dreams. I've faithfully prayed these verses back to the Lord for decades. He has blessed our family beyond what I could ever have imagined as a kid.  Along the way, our Creator has left me perpetually awe struck. He never ceases to amaze me. (Psalms 33:8 & 19:1) As we are all approaching our final season in life, this mantra to approach “whatever you do” - give it your very best effort “with all of your heart, as working for the Lord” is an infallible call to be a shining light to the world. (1John 4:13) In all we do we must acknowledge Him.(Proverbs 3:6) Have a blessed weekend. Peace and be prepared.

@TheAtlantic @AdamSerwer Do you ever wonder whether you might have a better life by not lying?

As the Pentagon purges some minorities and women from high-ranking positions, the message being sent to lower-ranking officers is that “they will be assessed on the basis of their gender, race, or politics, rather than their abilities,” @AdamSerwer writes. theatln.tc/eyB5j88y 📸: Chip Somodevilla / Getty

@GMadMonkTaka @DHSgov False

@DHSgov Bro, I support careful screening and civilised investigations, but if you frame an entire immigrant population as 3rd world then subtle compare them with those criminals, then you only lose more talent to those more manipulative foreign actors who exploit this type of racism!

WARNING GRAPHIC: These are the consequences of importing the third world. Do not look away.

@chamath @kylenabecker Fraudster. This is illegal.

The sad thing is that Ro is the guy preaching for socialism while he is the most active insider trader in Congress. He is a terrible representative of Silicon Valley.

@JoeConchaTV What a tool

If there was ever an SNL character to be created, here she is…

@pmarca If I knew the answer I wouldn’t be reading your post lol!

We live in an era of admiration of hysteria, neuroticism, and narcissism. Endless waves of panic, perpetual emotional incontinence. You know the answer…

@DineshDSouza “We will enforce scarcity on them until they obey!”

“Water, soil, and oxygen should not be infinitely accessible. They are assets that should be included in global economic balance sheets.” Is the World Economic Forum advocating for breathing to be monetized?

💯 🇺🇸

@Keir_Starmer Smh why are you speaking right now?

I welcome the ceasefire agreement reached overnight, which will bring a moment of relief to the region and the world. Together with our partners we must do all we can to support and sustain this ceasefire, turn it into a lasting agreement and re-open the Strait of Hormuz.

@MrsDrPublius I recognize these methods against me. Today I commit to wearing Gods armor.

Good Morning, Please join me for a daily scripture break. Ephesians 6:11, “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the Devil’s schemes." I realize I've mentioned this verse several times in our scripture breaks.  It’s coming up in my spirit for a reason, I trust.  We've reviewed what the full armor of God means as defined in Ephesians 6:13-17 several times. So let’s examine the phrase “so that you can take your stand against the Devil’s schemes”.  What are the Devil’s schemes? I interpret the “Devil’s schemes” as his tactics - how he operates.  In Mark 4:1-9, Jesus teaches a large crowd the parable of the sower. When Jesus is alone with the Twelve and those around Him, he explained the meaning of the parable in verses 13-20. Specifically, in verses 16 and 17, Jesus exposes the tactics of the Devil and WHY he attacks us. The Devil hates the Word of God and he knows the Word protects us and it contains divine power. The Devil will use afflictions and persecution to choke the Word; the lure of wealth, the cares of this world, and the lust for other things (distractions of the world) also to choke the Word of God in your life. He uses these tactics to weaken and if possible destroy you - if you don’t put on the full Armor of God this scripture infers you won’t be able to successfully resist these tactics. To summarize, this is the list of his schemes (tactics) the Devil uses and their effect on us - 1. Afflictions - to burden our minds or cause suffering 2. Persecution - to inflict pain, suffering, and despair 3. Lure of Wealth - to get us to depend on wealth not God to solve our problems 4. Lust for other things - to immerse ourselves in distractions (our interests, our hobbies, ourselves, accolades/honors from the world,  the world's material goods, etc.) 5. Cares of this world - the problems of the world - we worry about destructive philosophies, poverty, injustice, human slavery, the list goes on. Please take a moment to examine your own life. Are there any areas in your life the Devil has made any inroads by using these tactics; beginning to establish any strongholds? In the military, you are taught to study the tactics of an enemy in order to understand and defeat them, and who is our enemy? (Ephesians 6:12) All of these schemes are used by the Devil against us to get us to give up on God’s Word and discard our Armor. This is why we are instructed to put on the full armor of God - then we are armed to defeat the Devil’s tactics - “so that you can take your stand". Never give up on the promises of God, if we remain diligent to do what God says we will prevail. (Proverbs 3:1-6) Peace and be prepared.

@Mrgunsngear VP9 is terrific but I don’t prefer striker fire

After reading all the comments on my Heckler & Koch CC9 review of people saying they wanted the VP9CC/SFP9CC - these things better sell like crazy or y'all were lying 😂 Full #VP9CC review ⬇️ #new #EDC

@AJamesMcCarthy @tintintar They think everything is or should be centrally controlled. Govern me harder is their motto.

@tintintar How do you defund a company that doesn’t get public funding

And defund SpaceX and the other scam private companies doing ’space exploration’.

@EvaVlaar @kanyewest Must be really hard being offended by everything

Welcome to the club @kanyewest

@johnkonrad @WassonWatch With allies like this who needs enemies.

He won a Victoria Cross, the equivalent of a Medal of Honor, for killing Taliban. Now, two decades later, he’s arrested for killing Taliban. His VC citation: As he approached the structure, Corporal Roberts-Smith identified an insurgent grenadier in the throes of engaging his patrol. Corporal Roberts-Smith instinctively engaged the insurgent at point-blank range resulting in the death of the insurgent. With the members of his patrol still pinned down by the three enemy machine gun positions, he exposed his own position in order to draw fire away from his patrol, which enabled them to bring fire to bear against the enemy. His actions enabled his Patrol Commander to throw a grenade and silence one of the machine guns. Seizing the advantage, and demonstrating extreme devotion to duty and the most conspicuous gallantry, Corporal Roberts-Smith, with a total disregard for his own safety, stormed the enemy position killing the two remaining machine gunners.

@EMichaelJones1 @RealCandaceO Identity politics over everything else. Got it.

The time has come for the military to refuse to cooperate with orders like this. Catholics will have to take the lead. The Christian Zionists are incapable of rational behavior.

@SaltyGoat17 @Sassafrass_84 May as well be official about it

I have a feeling Trump is about to remove us from NATO. Everyone cool with that?

@Y0K0S0N @romanhelmetguy This is government

So a group of zero white people held a press conference to tell you that white people will be systemically discriminated against.

@TRobinsonNewEra @Keir_Starmer 🔥

@Keir_Starmer This you with a terrorist last week?

Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism. We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

@mazemoore A terrific example of the empathy that creates hell on earth but looks and sounds as sweet as pie

Gavin Newsom's wife recalls telling prisoners at San Quentin about running over and killing her sister with a golf cart. She said that she wasn't punished because it was an accident but that the prisoners are doing life even though theirs was "probably an accident too."

@HumbleFlow Seems as if Tucker is seeking out things things to be different and separate from Trump and generally the majority of conservatives. It’s a similar pattern as Candace, who precedes him on the path.

I’ve never seen Tucker so offended. Look how angry he is... like someone mocked his own faith.
