TO ALL THE WATCHMEN ON THE WALL – SOUND THE ALERT!

Consecrate yourselves.
Get your households in order.
Purify yourselves and the Church – casting out apostates, wolves in sheep clothing, and those living in unrepentant sin in your midst.
Wake up – Bride of Christ – cease living as though tomorrow is just the same as yesterday.
Tell everyone of the coming wrath. If they will not listen, shake the dust off your sandals and move on quickly. Leave the “calling out” to the LORD.
Do not fear; be of great courage and boldness.
Pray for there to be ears to hear and eyes to see….the Truth. Thy Word is Truth.
Prepare the way of the LORD.
Praise the Worthy Lamb, for His Kingdom is near.

Thank you so much for this beautiful and powerful post.

WIth a heavy heart I am praying that it is God’s will that The United States of America remains united however ignorant her dumbed down citizens have become.

We have no one to blame for the state of our culture but ourselves and our silence.

If you didn’t put a McCain/Palin sticker on your car out of fear of someone “keying” your car, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

If you sat politely by while the television sponsors you support continued to malign conservatives, Christians, violate FCC rules regarding usage of the people’s airwaves for state sponsored propaganda, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

If you sat silently supporting McCain/Palin in fear of being called a racist by an Obamatron, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.

If I hear one passive republican crying over their beers I will curse them and demand they get off of the pity pot of their own making.

A word to the wise...If you did nothing to help McCain/Palin win this election, the next campaign begins on Wednesday.

GOYA and quit complaining.

Elections are potpourri. God is in charge.

None of our lives is dependent on who is President.

Between those identifying themselves as Catholic and those who consider themselves “Evangelicals”, we see a total of over 140 MILLION people. Even if only 1/3 of that number were eligible to vote - we still see some 45 million votes. Had all eligible voters who CLAIM to be Evangelical Christians or Catholics voted for what they claim as their religion, this election would not have even been close.

But we are seeing a far different outcome.

Thank you, Joanie, for that beautiful picture and the story that goes with it. What you had from your father I got mostly from my Aunt and from a few people at the prep school I went to. I will always be grateful for that gift.

I get free health care, free food, and other people's money! I hated this hard work. I'd rather stay home, drink beer and be a deadbeat and surf the internet all day. This is a great day for me.

God bless....Thank-you joanie

I told God I would praise Him if he saved us from this defeat....

..but if not ...I would praise Him still....and will throughout eternity.

God is sovereign....His Will be done.

His ways are not our ways....His thoughts are not our thoughts...He is Almighty God.

I bless Him for allowing us 6 weeks of hope with Sarah Palin & her precious family...

I still have hope....that God will do mighty things in these uncertain times...

...they are uncertain to us....but not to God...

Don't be afraid of tomorrow.....God is already there.

AMEN AND GODBLESS!

“For my strength is made perfect in weakness.”
- 2 Corinthians 12:9

A primary qualification for serving God with any amount of success, and
for doing God’s work well and triumphantly, is a sense of our own
weakness. When God’s warrior marches forth to battle, strong in his own
might, when he boasts, “I know that I shall conquer, my own right arm and
my conquering sword shall get unto me the victory,” defeat is not far
distant. God will not go forth with that man who marches in his own
strength. He who reckoneth on victory thus has reckoned wrongly, for “it
is not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.”
They who go forth to fight, boasting of their prowess, shall return with
their gay banners trailed in the dust, and their armour stained with
disgrace. Those who serve God must serve him in his own way, and in his
strength, or he will never accept their service. That which man doth,
unaided by divine strength, God can never own. The mere fruits of the
earth he casteth away; he will only reap that corn, the seed of which was
sown from heaven, watered by grace, and ripened by the sun of divine love.
God will empty out all that thou hast before he will put his own into
thee; he will first clean out thy granaries before he will fill them with
the finest of the wheat. The river of God is full of water; but not one
drop of it flows from earthly springs. God will have no strength used in
his battles but the strength which he himself imparts.
Are you mourning over your own weakness? Take courage, for there must be
a consciousness of weakness before the Lord will give thee victory.
Your emptiness is but the preparation for your being filled, and your
casting down is but the making ready for your lifting up.

“When I am weak then am I strong,
Grace is my shield and Christ my song.”

C.H.SPURGEON

SOLI DEO GLORIA!

Psalm 146

1Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

2While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

3Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

5Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

7Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

8The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

9The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

10The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.

~ PRAYER ~

St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle
 Be our protection against the wickedness
and snares of the devil;
May God rebuke him, we  humbly pray,
 and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
 by the power of God,
 Thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits
who wander through the world seeking the ruin of souls.
 Amen

Someone suggested that we all copy this off and start saying it everyday. Yes, it is a Catholic prayer, but it fits the need right now!
