Pray with me May 13, 2026 Father, there are moments when life feels confusing, silent, and heavy. We try to understand what You are doing, but Your ways are higher than ours, and sometimes all we can see is the fog in front of us. Yet even here, we choose to trust You. Teach us to rest in Your character when we cannot trace Your hand. Remind us that You are still good when circumstances are not. You are still faithful when prayers seem unanswered. You are still near when we feel alone. Lord, give us peace that does not depend on explanations. Give us courage to keep walking when we cannot see the whole road. Help us surrender our need to control every outcome and instead place our lives fully into Your hands. When fear whispers that You have forgotten us, remind us of the cross. Remind us that a God who gave His Son for us will not abandon us now. Strengthen our hearts to believe that even in the waiting, even in the pain, You are working all things together for good. Help us trust You in the closed doors, in the delays, in the losses, and in the unknown. Let our faith become deeper than our feelings. Let our obedience become stronger than our doubts. And when we are too tired to carry ourselves, carry us. We may not understand the season, but we trust the Shepherd. We may not understand the process, but we trust the Potter. We may not understand the storm, but we trust the One who walks on the waves. In Jesus’ name, amen

This spiritual tool kills stress faster than any antidepressant: It's called Lamentation. Paul explains it in Philippians 4:6-7: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." There's a command: "Do not be anxious about anything." Yes. Even the thing you're thinking about right now that feels impossible to not worry about. Then, the instruction on how to follow the command: "but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Ask God for help, and follow it with Thanksgiving. "Lord, give the me wisdom to handle this according to your will - and thank you in advance for working it out for good." Try it. And finally, the promise. The "spiritual anti-depressant." "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." The peace? It won't make sense. It will be supernatural. You'll feel peace before the circumstance changes. The stress will dissipate. This exactly how David makes it through the season where he was living in caves, behind enemy lines, and being hunted by the King. It birthed the book of Psalms. Every psalm follow the pattern of Lamentation. - Request presented to God - Followed with thanksgiving Read any of them. Don't believe me? Just try it. The very thing you're anxious about right now - present it to God, an be honest about it. Be raw. Be guttural. If you're pissed. If you're scared. If you feel like you're going to die. Present it to God. He already know's how you feel anyway, lol. But don't stop there. Follow it with thanksgiving. Follow it with praise. Thank Him for what He's done. Thank Him for who He is. Thank Him in advance for what He will do. And... the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Hope this blesses you.

Pray with me May 10, 2026 Heavenly Father, Today we thank You for mothers, for the women who carry burdens quietly, love deeply, pray faithfully, and give endlessly. Thank You for the strength You placed inside them, the compassion in their hearts, and the wisdom that steadies homes and generations. Lord, bless the mothers who are weary. Renew their strength when they feel overlooked and exhausted. Remind them that every sacrifice made in love is seen by You. Give them peace in anxious moments, joy in ordinary days, and courage for every season they walk through. Protect their hearts and minds. Fill their homes with grace, laughter, patience, and truth. Let their words carry life and healing. May they know that their influence is powerful, their calling is holy, and their prayers are never wasted. For the mothers carrying grief, bring comfort. For the single mothers, bring provision and support. For the grandmothers, spiritual mothers, and women who nurture others faithfully, honor them with encouragement and strength. Teach us to rise up and call them blessed, to cherish them well, and to thank You for the gift they are. As Your Word says: “Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.” (Proverbs 31:28) And, “She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.” (Proverbs 31:25) May every mother know today that she is loved by her family and treasured by God. In the name of Jesus, Amen

The year is 2028, and the United States has just elected the first woman from Alabama as president. A few days after the election, the president-elect calls her father and says, “So, Daddy, I assume you’ll be coming to my inauguration?” “I don’t think so,” he replies. “It’s a 16-hour drive, your mother isn’t as young as she used to be, and my arthritis is acting up again.” “Don’t worry, Daddy,” she says. “I’ll send Air Force One to pick you up. A limousine will take you from your door.” “I don’t know,” he says. “Everyone will be so fancy. What would your mother wear?” “Oh, Daddy,” she replies, “I’ll make sure she has a beautiful gown, custom made by the best designer in Washington.” “Sweetheart,” he continues, “you know I can’t eat those rich foods you and your friends like.” “Don’t worry,” she says. “The entire affair will be handled by the best caterer in Washington. I’ll make sure your meals are salt-free. I really want you to come.” So the father reluctantly agrees. On January 20th, 2029, the first woman from Alabama is sworn in as President of the United States. In the front row sit her mother and father. The father leans over to the Supreme Court Justice next to him and whispers, “You see that woman up there, hand on the Bible, becoming President of the United States?” “Yes,” the Justice replies. The father says proudly, “Her brother played football for the University of Alabama.”

@MrsEthanBrooks A line from Fried Green Tomatoes. Nice!

I wish the young woman in the black RAV-4 could have heard me yell at her: I’m older, and I have more insurance. I hate traffic. Plz pray. Thx. Sent from my iPad.

The biggest shift in my prayer life was moving from desperation to authority. There was a time I thought prayer was about begging God… Crying louder, fasting longer, hoping maybe heaven would notice me. But then light came. God is not asking us to beg… He is asking us to believe. Begging comes from uncertainty. Authority comes from revelation. When you don’t know who you are in Christ, you will pray like a victim. When you know who you are, you will pray like a son. The Bible says: “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace…” (Hebrews 4:16) Not crawling. Not shrinking. Boldly. Why? Because you are not a stranger trying to gain access… You are a child who already belongs. Listen—prayer is not convincing God to do what He is reluctant to do. Prayer is enforcing what He has already made available in Christ. That’s why you will never pray amiss if you pray scriptures. Because when you pray scriptures, you are not speaking your emotions… You are speaking His will. “And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us.” (1 John 5:14) Scriptures reveal His will. So when you pray the Word, heaven has no option but to respond. Instead of saying: “Lord… please help me, I don’t know what to do…” You rise and declare: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1) Instead of saying: “God, I’m afraid…” You stand on His Word: “For God has not given me the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” (2 Timothy 1:7) Instead of begging for victory, you declare: “In all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” (Romans 8:37) This is the difference. Desperation prays from lack. Authority prays from finished work. Jesus already paid the price. He already secured the victory. You are not trying to win… You are enforcing what has been won. So when you pray, don’t come like someone trying to persuade God. Come as one who knows: “I have access.” “I have backing.” “I have authority in Christ.” Let your prayers be filled with Word. Let your mouth speak what heaven has already said. Because when God hears His Word in your mouth… He confirms it. Stop begging. Start believing. Stop pleading. Start declaring. You will never pray amiss… If you pray scriptures.

Good Morning, Please join me for a daily scripture break. Psalms 104:24: “How many are your works, Lord!  In wisdom you made them all; the Earth is full of your creatures." This is one of the foundational scriptures for my account here on X. I purposely search for beautiful images of “the works” of the Lord to share at the end of the day reminding us who God is (the Creator of the Universe) and the gift of beauty all around us in nature. There is a spiritual connection we can tap into and it rejuvenates our soul.  It’s one of the reasons I enjoy the National Parks so much. I do however want to emphatically state -  I’m not referring to any “New Age” philosophy.  Examining our planet through the prism of God’s Word affirms our Christian faith - from majestic mountains to the sea of celestial bodies above us, God’s creative power and glory are evident for all to see. In Genesis 1:31 it says, "And God saw everything that he had made and that it was very good. There was evening, then morning—the sixth day.”  From the beginning, God diligently and meticulously created His handiwork for us and in this verse God was quite pleased with His handiwork. The more you examine the scriptures you slowly begin to recognize glimpses of the genius of God.   Psalms 19:1 further elucidates our spiritual connection to God’s handiwork; it says “the heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.”   As we are part of His creation and called to proclaim the glory of God so does His handiwork. This particular scripture sparked my interest in star gazing and astrophotography. Let’s also further consider Ecclesiastes 3:11. It says, "He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.” So, enjoy the beauty in nature - celebrate what a spectacular gift of beauty it is and He created us in such a way our very being is edified by such a gift. I’d like to end the post today with this scripture in Phil 4:8.  It says, "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” Friends, God dearly loves us - please offer a prayer of thanksgiving for His beautiful handiwork. God bless you. Peace and be prepared.

Why Did God Allow Satan in Man’s Realm? The Fall, the Prison, and the Triumph of Christ Main Point: God did not create earth as a prison for mankind. Man was created for fellowship and dominion, but sin brought bondage. Satan’s presence is permitted for a season, not because God lost control, but because God will use even the rebellion of the devil to reveal His holiness, redeem fallen man through Christ, and finally crush the serpent under the feet of the victorious King. Introduction This is one of those questions that comes from looking at the world honestly and saying, “Something about this place feels wrong.” A person looks at the suffering, temptation, deception, spiritual darkness, death, devils, wicked rulers, lies, corruption, and the constant pressure of evil and asks, “Why would God create a place for man, then allow Satan and fallen angels to operate in the same realm?” On the surface it can feel like man was placed in a prison with predators. The Bible itself uses language that can make the question feel even heavier. Paul calls Satan “the god of this world” who blinds the minds of them which believe not (2 Corinthians 4:4). He calls him “the prince of the power of the air” who works in the children of disobedience (Ephesians 2:2). John says, “the whole world lieth in wickedness” (1 John 5:19). So the question is not silly. It is serious. Why would God allow this? Why would He let the serpent near the garden? Why would He permit a rebel spirit to deceive, tempt, accuse, corrupt, and oppose mankind? The first answer is that God did not create man inside a prison. Genesis does not open with Adam in chains. It opens with God creating, ordering, blessing, and placing man in dominion under divine authority. “And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good” (Genesis 1:31). Man was not created as a slave to Satan. Man was created in the image of God, placed in a prepared garden, given fellowship with God, given a commandment, given a wife, and given dominion. The prison condition entered through sin. Bondage came after the fall. Death came after disobedience. Corruption came after Adam yielded to the serpent’s lie. The world as we know it is not the world as God first made it. The realm is groaning because sin entered, and death by sin. That distinction matters. God is not the author of evil, and He did not create man as a toy for the devil. Man’s captivity is connected to man’s fall. But that still leaves the deeper question: why permit Satan at all? Why allow the test? Why allow rebellion to run? The answer is not that God lost control. The answer is that God is going to demonstrate through the entire history of creation that rebellion against Him produces ruin, that Satan’s wisdom is madness, that sin is death, that man cannot save himself, that God is holy, that God is just, that God is merciful, and that Jesus Christ is the rightful King over all. God allows evil for a season, but He does not surrender the end of the story. The devil gets enough rope to hang himself. Sin gets enough time to expose its nature. Man gets enough history to prove he cannot rule apart from God. Then Christ steps into the wreckage as the last Adam, defeats the serpent, redeems sinners, and brings everything under His feet. The question begins in Genesis 3, but it ends with the devil cast into the lake of fire and the Lord Jesus Christ reigning as King of kings and Lord of lords. Chapter 1: God Created Man for Dominion, Not Bondage Genesis 1 gives the original purpose of man before sin entered. “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion” (Genesis 1:26). That word matters. Dominion is not prison language. Dominion is rule, stewardship, authority, and responsibility under God. Adam was not made to be Satan’s prisoner. He was made to be God’s image-bearer in the earth, ruling under the command of his Creator. God gave him the

I have been asked for my opinion about Pam Bondi...so here it is... Pam Bondi, in my opinion...was deployed as a precision instrument in a theater of institutional warfare where the Attorney General’s role is less about courtroom theatrics and more about reshaping the Department of Justice’s internal architecture from within a bureaucracy engineered to resist exactly that. To mistake her fifteen-month tour for failure is to misunderstand the architecture of power itself. Bondi entered the DOJ in February 2025 after Matt Gaetz’s nomination collapsed under its own weight. She inherited an agency riddled with holdovers, careerist prosecutors, and institutional muscle memory tuned to the prior regime’s priorities. Her mandate, executed with the cold ferocity of a Florida prosecutor who once stared down the Clintons and lived to tell it, was never to play the long public game of show trials. It was to do the lethal, invisible labor: purge disloyal elements, redirect investigative task forces, shutter the foreign-influence shops that had become political protection rackets, and...most critically...build the factual scaffolding of cases that could survive judicial scrutiny once the political headwinds shifted. That is precisely what she delivered. Under her watch the DOJ secured historic gang and cartel takedowns, first-ever Antifa terrorism convictions, and a string of Supreme Court victories that rewrote the operational rules of engagement. Murder rates plunged to levels unseen in over a century. Those are not the metrics of a lightweight. They are the metrics of someone who understood that the real war is won in the grand-jury rooms and the classified briefings long before any defendant ever sees a courtroom. The public theater...the Epstein files fiasco, the congressional grillings, the slow-bleed perception that “Trump’s enemies weren’t being prosecuted fast enough”...was the predictable noise generated by an entrenched apparatus that weaponizes leaks, redactions, and procedural sabotage the moment it senses its own exposure. Bondi absorbed that fire so the next occupant of the office would inherit dockets already primed, evidence chains already hardened, and a bureaucracy already blooded and compliant. She was the breaching charge. The follow-on force...now under acting leadership that can move with fewer Senate constraints and fresher political capital...gets to deliver the kill shots. This is not speculation; it is the pattern of every high-stakes Trump DOJ transition. First-term chaos taught the lesson: the Senate-confirmed loyalist who survives confirmation must serve as the institutional wrecking ball. The public demands scalps; the law demands airtight cases. Bondi supplied the latter while the former were still being assembled. Those who call her tenure “incompetent” reveal either their ignorance of how the executive branch actually functions or their desire to keep the machine broken so it can never be turned against its former masters. She was never meant to be the permanent face of the Justice Department. She was the architect who laid the rebar and poured the concrete under fire. The structure now stands. The new tenants can furnish it with indictments. That is not failure. That is lethal, disciplined statecraft. And the critics who cannot see the difference have no business commenting on power at this altitude.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 💀⚖️

Pray with me April 27, 2026 Father, I come before You with confidence, not because of my own righteousness, but because You have invited me to come boldly according to Your will. Your Word says that when I ask anything according to Your will, You hear me, and if You hear me, I know that I have the petitions I have asked of You. So I align my heart with Your will today. Lord, let my desires be shaped by Your Spirit. Strip away anything in me that is selfish, fearful, or rooted in this world. Teach me to pray not just what I want, but what You have already spoken. I thank You for the testimony You have given, that eternal life is found in Your Son. I declare that I have life because I have the Son. Anchor me in that truth when doubt creeps in, when feelings shift, and when the world tries to redefine who I am. Strengthen my faith, God. Your Word says that whoever is born of You overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith. So I choose faith today, not fear, not compromise, not surrender to the pressure around me. Let my life be evidence that I belong to You. Father, I lift up those who are struggling, those caught in sin, those drifting from truth. Give me discernment, boldness, and compassion to intercede rightly. Use me as an instrument to bring life, restoration, and truth where there is deception. Guard me from idols, both obvious and subtle. Anything that competes for my affection, anything that replaces You in my heart, expose it and remove it. Keep my devotion pure. Remind me that I am kept by You. That the enemy does not have authority over me. That I am not vulnerable to darkness when I abide in Your Son. Establish me in truth so deeply that deception cannot take root. Lord, I know that the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one, but I also know that You have come, and You have given me understanding, so that I may know You who are true. So I choose You again today. I choose truth over lies. I choose faith over fear. I choose life over death. I rest in this: That I am Yours, That You hear me, That You are faithful. In Jesus’ name, Amen

Assissination Culture We stand at the precipice of a republic devouring itself, not through the crude machinery of revolution, but through a subtler, more insidious assassination culture...a pathology that has metastasized in the American soul. Last night, at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the third attempt on President Donald Trump’s life unfolded in real time: a gunman, armed to the teeth, charging a security checkpoint, shots ringing out as Secret Service agents shielded the man who refuses to kneel. Trump was evacuated amid the chaos, unharmed yet again. But make no mistake...this was no random act of a “lone wolf.” It was the predictable harvest of a cultivated venom. The left has crossed the Rubicon of rhetoric into ritualized bloodlust. They have psychologized dissent as existential evil: if your opinions deviate from their sacred catechism of equity, climate eschatology, and identity idolatry, you are not merely wrong...you are a pathogen to be excised. This is not hyperbole; it is the logical endpoint of a worldview steeped in Nietzschean ressentiment, where the strong (the builder, the unapologetic patriot, the disruptor of their managerial paradise) must be broken lest their very existence indict the fragility of the narrative. Dehumanization precedes the dagger. Trump is not a politician to them; he is the Antichrist of their secular theology, and in such a cosmology, assassination becomes sacrament. The media’s decades-long demonization...“threat to democracy,” “Hitler redux,” stochastic terrorism by proxy...has licensed the unstable, the ideologue, and the zealot to act. They do not debate; they excommunicate. And when words fail, bullets are the final edit. Yet the deeper rot lies in the Republican enablers, those hollow men in suits who wring their hands and mutter platitudes while the knives sharpen. They do not fight because, in the shadowed recesses of their ambition, they do not want Trump to prevail. He exposes their cowardice...their preference for managed decline over visceral confrontation, for country-club conservatism over the raw, lethal defense of the republic. Secretly, many of them crave his erasure: it would restore their illusion of control, their place in the uniparty pantheon where power is traded like poker chips, never risked for principle. This is the pathology of the eunuch elite: they fear the left’s mobs less than they fear the populist fury that Trump channels. They are complicit by omission, philosophical cowards who quote Locke while the social contract burns. Philosophically, this is the death of the Enlightenment’s fragile truce: the belief that ideas clash in the arena of reason, not the coliseum of violence. Hobbes warned us...without the Leviathan of law and mutual restraint, life reverts to the war of all against all. The left has rejected the Leviathan for their own: a soft totalitarianism where tolerance is weaponized against the tolerant. Republicans, meanwhile, offer no counter-Leviathan, only managed surrender. The result? A nation where political homicide is normalized as “resistance,” and the body politic hemorrhages legitimacy with every silenced voice, every thwarted bullet. This is not sustainable. An assassination culture is the death rattle of a civilization that has lost its will to live. It demands not therapy, but ferocity...a cultural immune response that names the pathology without apology: radical leftism as ideological cancer, institutional Republicans as necrotic tissue. We do not negotiate with those who romanticize our graves. We expose, we prosecute, we rebuild the ramparts of ordered liberty with unyielding precision. The third attempt failed. The culture that birthed it will not. The question is whether we still possess the lethal clarity to cauterize the wound before the republic bleeds out. 💀⚖️🗡️

Pray with me April 26, 2026 Heavenly Father, You are the God of truth, light, and righteousness. Your Word says that nothing hidden will remain concealed, and nothing covered will not be revealed. So we come before You boldly, asking You to shine Your light into every dark place in our nation. Lord, expose what is hidden in secret. Reveal corruption where men have tried to bury it. Bring to light every work of darkness that operates behind closed doors. Your Word says in Ephesians 5:11 to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. So we ask You, God, let truth rise up. Let deception be uncovered. Let every lie be stripped of its power. Father, tear down what is built on wickedness. Disrupt what is rooted in evil. Confuse the plans of those who plot injustice. As it is written in Psalm 33:10, You bring the counsel of nations to nothing and make the plans of the peoples of no effect. Do it again, Lord. Frustrate every scheme that stands against Your righteousness. But God, begin with us. Search our hearts. Expose anything in us that does not honor You. Cleanse us, refine us, and make us people of truth. As David prayed in Psalm 139:23-24, “Search me, O God, and know my heart… see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.” Raise up leaders who fear You. Raise up voices that will not bow to corruption. Raise up a people who love truth more than comfort. Let righteousness exalt this nation again, as Your Word declares in Proverbs 14:34. We ask for justice, but we also ask for mercy. We ask for exposure, but also repentance. Let what is revealed lead to awakening, not just outrage. God, let Your light flood this land. What is done in darkness, bring it into the open. What is hidden, uncover it. What is evil, dismantle it. And let Your truth stand unshaken. In the mighty name of Jesus, Amen

"Why?" It's the question every believer asks sooner or later. Job lost everything — his wealth, his children, his health. His friends said he deserved it. His wife told him to curse God and die. And yet Job said this: "He knows where I am going. And when He tests me, I will come out as pure as gold." — Job 23:10 🙏 Job didn't have answers. He had something better — TRUST. Here's the hard truth — God doesn't always work things out for our comfort. He works them out for His glory. The fire isn't meant to destroy you. It's meant to purify you. Whatever you are walking through today — God has not forgotten you. You will come out as gold. ✨

Pray with me April 24, 2026 Father, We come before You in awe, because You are love. Not just loving, but love itself. And whoever abides in love abides in You, and You in them. Lord, let Your love be perfected in us. Drive out every fear that tries to take root in our hearts, because perfect love casts out fear. Where there has been anxiety, replace it with boldness. Where there has been insecurity, anchor us in the truth that we are Your children. God, teach us to love one another the way You have loved us. Not with words alone, but in truth and action. Break down every wall of bitterness, pride, and offense, and fill us with compassion that reflects Your heart. Jesus, we confess that You came in the flesh, that You are the Son of God, and we declare that we abide in You. Strengthen us to discern truth from deception. Guard our hearts from false spirits and ground us in Your Word. Lord, remind us that greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world. Let that truth rise up in us with authority and confidence, no matter what we face. And Father, if we say we love You, let it be proven in how we love people. Purify our hearts so that our love is real, sacrificial, and unwavering. We love because You first loved us. So let Your love flow through us, transform us, and mark us as Yours. In Jesus’ name, Amen

@MikeBales All of us get lost in the darkness, dreamers learn to steer by the stars

Hello darkness, my old friend…

Pray with me April 21, 2026 Father, You are light, and in You there is no darkness at all (1 John 1:5). You are pure, holy, and true, and we come before You with reverence and honesty, knowing that nothing is hidden from Your sight. Lord, we confess that we have not always walked in the light. There have been moments where we have chosen darkness, where we have said one thing and lived another. Your Word says that if we claim to have fellowship with You while walking in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth (1 John 1:6). So today, we choose truth. We step into the light. Cleanse us, Father. Your Word declares that if we walk in the light as You are in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7). Wash over us again. Not just behavior, but heart. Not just actions, but motives. We confess our sins to You now, Lord, trusting Your promise that You are faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Thank You that forgiveness is not based on our performance, but on Your character. You are faithful. You are just. You are merciful. Guard us from deception, Father. Keep us from saying we have no sin, because Your Word says that when we do, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us (1 John 1:8). Keep us humble. Keep us aware. Keep us dependent on Your grace. And thank You, Jesus, that You are our advocate, that Your blood speaks a better word over our lives. Because of You, we are not condemned, we are cleansed. We are not rejected, we are restored. So today, we walk in the light. We choose truth over comfort, conviction over compromise, and fellowship with You above everything else. In Jesus’ name, Amen
