God keeps laying on my heart the story of Gideon and reading this just reinforces His message to me and all of us that this battle can and will be won by those of us faithful to Him.

Amen!

Psalm 37

of David

1 Do not fret because of those who are evil
or be envious of those who do wrong;

2 for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.

3 Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4 Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

For Catholics When reciting the rosary for this cause I always preface the 4th Joyful mystery with this; “The observance of the cease fire order by Japan ending of World War 2 was on Our Lady’s Feast Day of The Assumption.

We are changing from one season into another, leading to what I believe will be a massive revival across the globe as deliverance comes to our nation

I'm sorry, but that's where the author loses me. The Bible does not say an end time revival is at hand, it says in 2nd Thessalonians 2:3a, "2Th 2:3  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first."

Second, what is happening is not a judgment on Donald Trump, it is judgment on the USA on a whole. Sure, God's elect are still here and will be kept from the trial to come on the earth, but Donald Trump has been lied to by his "false prophets." I don't blame him for that, I blame them. And if you want a list of those false prophets, just look at who Trump surrounds himself with. That'll clue you in. So Biden's election is a judgment on the USA, and will result in ever worsening conditions.

So don't listen to the garbage being put out by Charisma magazine.

Will he deliver us? Ultimately. But we shall know tribulation.
7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; 8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. Ecclessiastes 3:7-8

It's war.

God helps those who help themselves. People who only have high expectations are on their own.

“My husband and I have prayed and feel at peace with the result. I believe it is proof of God’s judgment over Donald Trump,” she explained.

My goodness, what pharisees these people are!!! Are there no mirrors in their home -— or are they blinded by their own opinion of themselves???

Perhaps they are showing you that you need to lead them back from self-righteous judgement to true faith and understanding of how God chooses and uses broken vessels:

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. -— Romans 8:1-2

No God will NOT deliver us from the coup. That isn’t even biblically sound. In the new covenant he isn’t shooting lightning bolts to save us here in the temporal world. That the basic concept of free will.

Think there weren’t millions of Christians in 1918 Russia praying as hard as they could? Syrian Christians as ISIS rolled into town? That preacher and his wife in the trunk of the car praying, singing and blessing their kidnapper before he shot em in the head and burned them? (killer executed this week)
Christians in life rafts, Max-8 737s in a death dive, etc.

God protects their soul, not so much their corpus delecti here in earth. “Jesus take the wheel” is a truly insane song”.

She’s an idiot theologically speaking. Probably literally as well.

Sure, God allowed some of His people to war against brutal oppressors and win but He also allowed brutal oppressors to punish Israel time and time again when they fell away from Him, when they ALLOWED sinn to creep into the nation, and infect everything in their society. When Israel stopped fighting, and rested on their laurels, God allowed nations to subdue them, even when there were e still some faithful remnants within Israel.

Take a look around, we have allowed aa tremendous amount of sin to creep in without dealing with it, even in many churches today.

What is God going to allow to happen to a nation that is trying to kick Him out? We don’t know at this point.

Only when Israel repented AS A NATION did God empower them to defeat their oppressors. Only when Israel rooted out the evil from among them did God act to empower them to prosper once again.

Are we gonna make an oath to God to purge our nation of evil like Israel did time and again when they got right with God fin a lly? Or are we gonna sit back and let it go on like we have for so long Now?

Yes we fight already by praying, by outing, by trying to launch lawsuits, but really we are d a day late and dollar short, the evidence, is entrenched in society now because Christians s stopped seriously opposing it like they used to. We allowed the snarling enemy to intimidate us into inaction in the past. You don’t see the groups of Christians stamping out sin in the streets Nymore like you used to because we are bow more afraid of losing friendship with the world than we are about obeying God

That is the sad truth of the matter. Christians s all over the US could risk going to prison while seriously opposing sin, but we choose not to, we choose to not make serious waves anymore,, just like Israel did time and time again.

I know that God can deliver us, but I've never understood modern Christians that believe God will deliver us. We have murdered 65 million babies and allowed sodomites to marry. Church attendance has decreased over 20% in the last 10 years. We claim to be 80% of the population yet we can't win an election. Even the pope is flirting with making sodomy legal. At some point God will punish His people.

People keep talking about "Grace", but you don't get a Mulligan for outright sin.

If you ask a Christian about Solomon, most of them will have a good opinion of him recounting the story of splitting the baby and asking for wisdom instead of money. But the truth is, if you read the story of Solomon, God gave him everything and got nothing for it. Solomon built his Temple, but David provided all the materials and he completed the Temple after his own homes in Jerusalem and Lebanon were finished, plus a house for his first wife, Pharaoh's daughter. Lebanon is significant because the "King of Tyre" was there. Ezekiel tells us that's where Lucifer was. If you read Deut 17 (I think), it will list the rules for Kings of Israel to follow. Solomon broke all of them. He married 700 wives and 300 concubines and none of them were Hebrew. His wives brought their gods and altars with them and changed Solomon's heart. The amount of gold paid to Solomon each year was 666 talents of gold. His personal friend that helped him build the Temple was the King of Tyre. Solomon gave 20 cities to Hiram and he didn't want them. By the time Salomon died, there were altars to Baal and Moloch all over Israel, even on the roof of the Temple. His wives were sacrificing Solomon's own children to Baal. Israel ended up divided into 2 nations. The Northern Kingdom built 2 golden calf's to worship so people wouldn't try to go to Jerusalem to worship.Read Eze 16 to see what God thought of all this.

We must ask ourselves how long God will wait before Judgement falls? Could Biden/Harris be Gods judgement? Why do we blindly believe God will just forget about what has been allowed to go on in America? We didn't repent after 9-11. We didn't repent after the financial collapse in 2008. Is anybody repenting after the virus has killed 300,000? Did we miss the part about God punishing those He loves? God could straighten all this out in a moment, but why should He?

My read on this is, If Trump wins, He has given us 4 more years to REPENT!!, If Biden takes over, It's too late,... Punishment is here.

If we don't think this will end in civil war, we are fooling ourselves. 600,000 died in the first civil war. How many do you think would die today?

I could recount many more times God punished His people in history, but most of us still think we don't deserve it. You can ask an axe murderer if they think they will go to heaven and they most likely say yes because God is good. They will explain that they only killed one and he deserved it. Then they will explain they are a good person. We are doing the same thing. We can't explain to God why we allow baby killers and sodomites to lead our country. If we won't repent on our own, He will bring us to our knees one way or another.

To see what God is doing in the present, we need to remember what He has done in the past. He never changes.

So how does the author explain Hitler's takeover of Germany?
How does the author explain the fall of Christian North Korea to Communism?
How does the author explain Maduro's theft to power?
Is the US so special that it's exempt from the rise of evil.

I pray for God to resurrect Trump to power in 2021, but there is no basis to 'expect' it.

With all of this “news” coming out about Barr not telling us about the fraud that the Bidens are, I think it gives the ELECTORS good cause not to name Biden as the winner of the election.

My God, all this exposure to the truth about the man, surely no one in their right mind would give him the PRESIDENCY.

AND THE ELECTORS WOULD HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO DO THE CORRECT THING.

“Fear not, for these things must come to pass.....”

Perhaps G-D’s rescue isn’t stopping a coup or saving the Untied States?

I see Trump as more like King Josiah. The last righteous ruler of a civilization rushing towards judgement. His reign only delayed, but didn’t prevent, the wrath to come.
