It's the TRAIN I'm on

John 14:23

King James Version

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, 

If a man love me, he will keep my words: 

and my Father will love him, 

and we will come unto him, 

and make our abode with him.

Today, I thought I'd be writing OTHER articles.

"Other than" Trump.

Yeah, right.

First attempt -- failed.

Second attempt -- failed.

Third attempt -- we settled for Trump.

This one you're reading now.

As if to egg me on further, SPIRIT gives me two short videos.

All on exciting, new Trump directives:

Peter Doocy: This is a really big story

Trump Aims to Deport Hamas Supporters on Campus - Barred Jewish Columbia University Professor Reacts

Trump it is then.

After all, I've been reading about him, since the 90s.

That makes our "connection" at least 30 years already.

Apart from the fact, I've hopped on to the Trump train.

And it's not about to slow down one bit.

GOD gave this president a tough job.

To rehabilitate America.

Trump's doing that.

He's already signed over 300 executive orders.

He's gone to Davos, North Carolina, L.A., Vegas, and south Florida.

Making speeches, checking conditions, instituting reforms.

The other day, he arrived in Maryland from his Air Force One plane.

Only to walk a bit, and head for his Marine One helicopter.

Friendly media have declared he's done more in 100 hours, than Biden has in 100 days.

Others say he's done more in four days, than Biden has in four years.

Either way, we all agree.

Judging by the enviable "lightning" speed the 78-year-old president works.

Even his critics are demolished, and dumbfounded.

Sure, Trump wants to be in the spotlight.

And then again, when was he ever not?

He's a talker, a builder, a doer.

He's got big plans, great plans, mind-boggling plans.

Those are the gifts GOD gave him.

That's why, only Trump can rebuild America.

Through the LORD JESUS' help.

Yesterday, White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, had her first press conference.

Firm, but friendly.

Well received by the press corps, young as she was.

A refreshing change from the perpetually-impatient, and irritated, former press sec, Karine Jeane-Pierre.

First thing Leavitt debunked are the drones over NJ.

They're from the FAA.

Biden kept us wondering.

Trump informed us plainly.

That's the big difference between them.

Second, she told old media about NEW media.

The front row is now for the "new media".

Bloggers, podcasts, other types of emerging media are welcome.

Just get your "pass".

I don't need to be there.

I just wait for SPIRIT to tell me what stuff to write about Trump.

Five out of 22 presidential nominations have been confirmed.

Before Trump even sat at the Oval Office, he was already working.

Starting 2020, he's already "planned" his comeback.

He's laid out his plans.

He's chosen his people.

He knows the programs, and agencies to put in place.

He knows whom to fire; whom to keep.

It's all mapped out in his mind.

Now that he's president, not a day has gone by that he's resting.

His former butler says he slept but a mere three hours.

Momentarily taking a break from his golf game, he gets word the Colombian president doesn't want America's two C-17s to land with the deported criminal load.

Trump gets mad, and slaps the president with tariffs, and travel bans.

According to one observer, in six minutes, Colombia's president replies, allows, and even offers to send his private plane to collect the deportees.

That's Trump for you.

He gets things done.

Especially America's on a tight sked.

The vultures saw the weak Biden administration.

They were not prepared for the speed Trump swatted them like flies.

It's no joke being Trump.

It's no joke being Netanyahu.

America and Israel are being persecuted.

They're the main targets of Islamic terrorists.

Thus, GOD wants America fixed first.

And then America will help Israel.

America needs Israel.

She's the apple of GOD's eye.

By 4 February, both leaders will meet in Washington.

May GOD be in their midst.

That's why Trump works hard.

The blessing is upon his shoulders.

GOD knows his heart, and what he's up to.

He was born for this moment.

Whether he knows it, or not, I do.

I was tasked to write about him.

Even to watch over him.

Well, Trump it is then!

My FAVORITE subject

 

Isaiah 25:1

King James Version

25 O Lord, thou art my God; 

I will exalt thee, 

I will praise thy name; 

for thou hast done wonderful things; 

thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

If having created 104 blogs is any indication of my LOVE for GOD, then I guess you have it.

PROOF of my adoration.

On the ONE, and ONLY GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

The GOD of Israel.

The GOD of those born again.

The GOD of those who believe in JESUS.

The GOD of my heart.

The ONE I constantly seek.

The ONE I write about, all day long.

Since GOD made me born again over four-and-a-half years ago, He's been my favorite subject.

He knew it would be so.

He knew, once I "found" Him, I won't look elsewhere anymore.

He knew, once I got to know Scripture, that's all I'd write about.

And GOD was right.

Then again, when was He ever wrong?

He reserved the BEST for last.

All worldly research didn't lead to Him.

Only the Bible led to Him, just so you know.

It's continued to nourish my soul each day.

It's the ONLY SOURCE of DEEP knowledge I'll ever touch now.

GOD's WORD is all we need in this world.

You will marvel at GOD's story, once your read the Bible.

You'll know many things about the LORD.

You will laugh, cry, fear, marvel, and worship Him.

GOD continues to love us.

No matter our many betrayals.

Only because He wants EVERYONE saved:

2 Peter 3:9

King James Version

9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, 

as some men count slackness; 

but is longsuffering to us-ward, 

not willing that any should perish, 

but that all should come to repentance.

Speaking of repentance, that was the key.

For GOD to show up.

At least, for me.

The day I was aghast over my sins, swearing never to sin my old sins anymore, was the day heaven surely smiled.

JESUS said so:

Luke 15:7-10

King James Version

7 I say unto you, 

that likewise joy shall be in heaven 

over one sinner that repenteth, 

more than over ninety and nine just persons, 

which need no repentance.

8 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver,

if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, 

and sweep the house, 

and seek diligently till she find it?

9 And when she hath found it, 

she calleth her friends 

and her neighbours together, 

saying, 

Rejoice with me; 

for I have found the piece which I had lost.

10 Likewise, I say unto you, 

there is joy in the presence of the angels of God 

over one sinner that repenteth.

Now that I've been saved (from my own filth, and ignorance), why would I ever want to go back to that old state?

I'm now a student of SPIRIT and a workman for GOD.

Where before, I was a student of universities, now, I'm a student of SPIRIT.

Studying GOD's laws, and prophecy.

Making sure I get it right.

Only SPIRIT can teach us about JESUS.

It's important we understand JESUS.

He taught us how to love GOD.

As only the "beloved Son" could.

Is there anything else that matters, if my favorite subject was GOD?

I must listen to JESUS, so He can teach me what pleases GOD.

And now, I know.

It's all about obedience.

John 14:15

King James Version

15 If ye love me, 

keep my commandments.

How can we not love GOD?

He sent us His Son, that we may be saved.

He has great mercy, longsuffering patience, and utmost love.

He loves both Jew and Gentile, just in case you think He plays favorites.

You can never accuse GOD of injustice.

Can we say the same of our leaders?

Can we say the same of our governments?

Can we say the same of our nations?

Can we say the same of each other?

There's so much to write about GOD, that we just keep writing each day.

I thought we'd stop at 100 blogs, but who's to contain the SPIRIT of GOD in me?

John 3:8

King James Version

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, 

and thou hearest the sound thereof, 

but canst not tell whence it cometh, 

and whither it goeth: 

so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

I've always liked justice.

I can't bear to see anyone being bullied, manipulated, or oppressed.

And now that GOD's truth, perfection, and holiness are being questioned, that gets me even more vigilant.

How can we challenge our Creator?

That would be insane.

As workman, I'm merely here to bring you back to Scripture.

The WORD of GOD is truth.

And it's all that will remain.

The WRITING continues

 

Hebrews 11:6

King James Version

6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: 

for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, 

and that he is a rewarder of them 

that diligently seek him.

Laptop finally conked out.

For good.

After 54 months of non-stop writing, it heaved its last sigh.

Two days before it did, I heard a strange sound coming from it.

Whoops...

But laptop kept faithfully on.

Somehow, I was always able to troubleshoot it.

Somehow, it always responded to periodic reformatting.

Up until the 13th, it worked just fine.

Thinking I'd be able to sell it for something, I was wrong.

No one wanted to take it, except for one who gave a tiny token.

But that's not enough to buy a decent used one.

Of course, I can't go off course.

SPIRIT gave me 17 articles to work on.

At the internet shop, I could only muster one article.

"Something" was giving me an especially hard time at the shop.

It was painstaking working from the desktop.

What with loose keys from all the gamers who used it.

And something "heavy" was bearing down upon me.

As if something was hindering all my efforts.

I got a neck ache, and headache, from trying to work.

By the time I got home, I felt literally sick, and depleted.

But we got one article out.

Only to find I had a lot of typos, and jumbled thoughts.

We were able to fix that article.

And today, this is the first real article I'm writing again.

All because help came from heaven.

As my laptop heaved its last sigh, I didn't know if I'd have another laptop.

I didn't have the funds for a replacement.

But GOD gave me what I needed, asap.

My pastor-friend said GOD "urged" him to help me "right away".

So he made it happen this morning.

This morning, I got that laptop I was eyeing yesterday.

And boy, did it work real fast!

GOD gave me the "upgrade" I needed.

All those articles on my heart "dancing", must have pleased the LORD.

He knew I was on to something.

He gave me faster stuff to work with.

I'm still in awe at how fast everything transpired.

My friend also knows how important my work is.

He knows of my travails.

He also reads my posts regularly.

He's very Berean in his approach.

If my work pleases him, then I must be doing something right.

We both are sticklers for accuracy in handling GOD's WORD.

All I learned early on, I learned from my pastor-friend.

Interestingly, that old laptop was also a gift in 2019.

I had been working from internet shops.

But one day, I got into a "dead" zone.

Nothing worked that day.

Turned out, GOD had a surprise for me.

My mom's friends, a kind couple, gifted me with their old gamers laptop.

As you can imagine, it had TONS of memory, and was pretty fast.

That's how GOD works -- through people who care.

That laptop served me for 54 months.

SPIRIT and I got to create over 100 blogs, and 24 ebooks from it.

And now, I was gifted with funds to buy another used one.

My work for GOD continues.

GOD always makes things possible.

And all I did was just leave everything up to GOD.

I merely surrendered to His will.

Apparently, His will was for me to have upgraded tools.

That's why He retired the old laptop.

He knows I'm grateful for anything that comes from Him.

And I sure know when things come from the LORD.

My constant prayer is that I remain aligned with GOD's WLL.

As born again, I don't know any other way but that.

WRITING about government

 

1 Corinthians 3:18

King James Version

18 Let no man deceive himself. 

If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, 

let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

Strange how one blog led to another.

And another.

It took 93 blogs to finally create the 94th:

"On GOVERNMENTS"

That's quite a journey, but well worth it.

I guess you could say SPIRIT made me study real hard.

Each blog explored a theme.

Each article expounded on that theme.

Until finally, we got to the government blog.

To my great surprise, of course.

Considering I knew nothing about governments.

And had no desire to know its complexities.

Still, when SPIRIT gives me an idea, I go exploring.

Every time we create a new blog, it's like self-study for me.

I teach myself first.

I have no right to give you half-baked goods.

First, I must understand it.

And be true to Scripture.

Never mind that I'm not a tech guy.

Or a scientist, an economist, a CEO, or in government.

As if that even mattered to GOD.

All GOD cares about is if we seek His truth.

Psalm 14:2

King James Version

2 The Lord looked down from heaven 

upon the children of men, 

to see if there were any that did understand, 

and seek God.

He must have seen me jumping wildly.

Trying to catch His eye.

Calling His attention.

Joyfully volunteering.

He must have been pleased.

If He wasn't, He wouldn't have given me 96 blogs to create.

Just so you know, a 97th seems to be hovering.

GOD also wants to know if we care.

Well, I do care.

I care what happens to you.

I care to know absolute truth.

I care to know from the BEST teacher.

The Triune GOD surely saw my curious, cheerful, childlike heart.

With the indefatigable spirit He gave me.

I was teachable.

I was not government material.

I found I was actually enjoying writing about governments.

Not about the government of men, but the government of GOD.

It's the principles of GOD that matter.

We need GOD-centered governments.

That's the only way we can all live, thrive, and survive.

That's the only way we can have justice on earth.

That's the only way we can have real truth.

What would a good government be like?

That's explored in the 94th blog.

WORKING for GOD

 

2 Timothy 2:15

King James Version

15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, 

a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, 

rightly dividing the word of truth.

There can be no nonsense when you work for GOD.

Neither laziness.

Nor doubt.

You're literally on call 24/7.

Won't that make you exhausted?

Not if the HOLY SPIRIT guides you.

Not all born again reflect such guidance.

A true born again working for GOD is devoted to Him.

Your heart, mind, body, and spirit are perfectly attuned to Him.

There is no thinking for self; only for GOD.

What does He want you to do?

How can you serve Him best?

What does He want you to do for others?

What is His will?

How can you be of value to others?

How does He want you to be?

Such questions occur daily.

In prayers, and as you live and work.

I must tell you of one instance wherein I slacked a bit.

And I'm mighty ashamed of it.

Thinking I had written enough, I wondered if I should keep writing as I did.

Such presumptuousness!

Soon after, our phone line got cut.

Naturally, my wifi conked out.

I was out of GOD's loop.

Took me a tedious two to three days to get it all sorted out.

It seems the contractors across us installed power for their clients.

In the process, our phone line was accidentally cut.

When I pointed it out to them, there was not much help forthcoming.

I had to get to a neighbor's house to report the issue.

It was a lengthy process with the phone company.

Fortunately, my neighbor was kind.

They allowed me to use their landline.

Mercifully, for as long as needed.

You know how you're put on hold.

And transferred here and there.

Quite a chore.

But I literally had to get back "on line".

At least, with GOD's line.

All because I thought better than GOD.

I got ahead of Him.

I got slack.

That must have been in late 2020.

Lesson learned.

Very humbling, indeed.

Never again was I to get ahead of GOD.

I was to do the work GOD set out for me to do.

At His own time, at His own pace, through His own will.

I was to keep going, for there was TONS of work to do.

Now, I merely pray for His will.

What does He want me to get done?

Also, as of this writing, we now have 89 blogs.

Nothing like being taught a hard lesson for a slacker.

Only by GOD's LOVE and GRACE am I able to write at all.

And to understand Scripture clearly, as if to a child.

I would never want to fall from grace again.

Whooo, I tremble at the thought!

I must truly let SPIRIT guard my throughts.

Come to the LORD JESUS now.

And know what it means to work for Him.

One thing for sure, it will be a 180-degree turn.

You will never be your old self again.

Your work will be marvelous.

Your work will serve GOD.

And others.

What could be more fun than that?

MAKING life EASIER for OTHERS

 

1 John 4:7

King James Version

7 Beloved, let us love one another: 

for love is of God; 

and every one that loveth is born of God, 

and knoweth God.

I've always known it.

I could not bear to see people suffer.

All the research I did was so I may know.

How to make life easier for others.

How I can really help them.

What information can really help them.

How to prevent ANY form of harm.

How to do things better, and more intelligently.

How to make room for more important things.

It was my heart's delight.

If I can make life easier for others.

And take the fear out of their hearts.

And show them a better way.

Thus, all that painstaking "research".

If there was an "experiment", I was probably that.

All those hits and misses.

All the lessons learned.

All the pain I caused others.

All the near-harm I caused myself.

All the ignorance of GOD's laws.

All the resulting humbling.

April 2019 changed everything.

I wanted real change.

I didn't want to sin anymore.

I wanted to know ABSOLUTE truth.

The kind I can really share with others.

And have conviction in doing so.

For my research had always one part missing.

What information was being left out?

What was shielded from me?

But I kept on.

Five months after, GOD made me born again.

And that changed everything in my life.

SPIRIT and SCRIPTURE showed me the best way.

How to live life, according to the Bible.

How to live life, according to GOD's terms.

How to live life, according to JESUS.

SPIRIT taught me all that.

No longer was I researching other books.

Or getting hits and misses in my life.

The BIBLE sufficed.

Now, I knew everything for sure.

How to really make life easier for people.

GOD planted the seeds before I was born.

He knew what I was going to be.

He waited till I came around.

All that "research" would bear fruit.

All those errors will be of use.

I would be able to teach better.

And to help more.

Nothing would be mere theory.

Because I knew the THREE sides of the coin.

I was like an experiment, that eventually got right.

Thanks to GOD, Who didn't give up on me.

What did I learn about making life easier?

By sharing the gospel of JESUS CHRIST.

By sharing with you GOD's WORD.

By sharing with you His LAWS.

By sharing verses that answer life's everyday questions.

By sharing verses that answer life's toughest questions.

By sharing verses that give real hope for our challenges.

By sharing about JESUS.

He is all the help we need.

For in these end times, His WORD is all that will remain.

There is nothing we can "bank" on, but the WORD of GOD.

And that is JESUS.
