First off, is this not true …. Primary Kingdom Scope: WE’RE not here to “restore America” but rather as Christ’s “ambassadors” to do HIS bidding – His Great Commission (Matt 28:18-20; 2 Cor 5:20). Yet, as disciples of Jesus we obey Him by lifting up all those in civil authority (1 Timothy 2:1-3).
Pray for yes, but looking to and for the eternal KING and His coming kingdom (1 Timothy 2:1-3; Jeremiah 29:7)….
“And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.” Daniel 2:44
For now …
Daniel Deitrich states the following in protest of those Christians who voted for Trump:
“In 2016, 81% of white evangelical Christians voted for Donald Trump after (among other things) hearing an audio recording of him bragging about sexually assaulting women.”
We’ll get to Daniel Deitrich’s sin of self-righteousness in a moment.
By the lyrics of this song, it’s immediately obvious that the author is grossly misinformed, has bought a package of lies from Satan’s children, gullibly listens to and believes fake news, and is announcing and justifying his own sin of hypocrisy while he wrongly condemns others. Daniel claims Trump has caused the caging of babies and the ripping of chldren from their parents. Those myths have long ago been exposed as lies. The pictures used to convince gullible people like Daniel Deitrich were taken under the Obama administration.
The blaring fact that the author gives not one applaud for the ceased funding of abortion under Trump is yet another obvious giveaway of his own delusionment. It’s SATAN who came to steal, KILL, and destroy and obviously, Daniel Dietrich is sad that precious innocent babies are alive today as a result of Trump. apparently, all Daniel Deitrich can do is judge Trump for a passed transgression, as if ANY one of us stands sinless (James 2:13; 1 John 1:8, 10). regrettably, This song will bring only judgment upon its author. Read James 2:13 and Matthew 7:1-5.
The author of this song originally wrote the song’s bridge as “an angry middle finger to the listener” (his own words). The author is also still blaming Trump for his past sins, as if God doesn’t see every single sin this same song’s author has committed? Isn’t that hypocrisy according to Jesus? (Matt 7:1-5) How does anyone’s past sins negate what good they may presently have the opportunity to do now? Does Daniel Deitrich’s past sins hinder him from doing what’s right today? If so, God lied to us: He’s not merciful.
May God bless us to spend out energies dealing with the evil in our own hearts, our own sins….
According to Jesus, the sins that should concern us the most are our own. The evil in this world that should concern us the most is the evil in our own hearts!
If we wish to see evil, we need not look any further than our own hearts, right?
“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9
Jesus condemns hypocritical judgment:
“Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” Matthew 7:1-5
One of the lines in this song says: “the highest law is love”…
LOVE is only defined by the stated TRUTH of the only One who “is love.” (1 John 4:8, 16) True love is defined between Genesis and Revelation and anyone speaking outside of what the Holy Scriptures define, is completely deceived. And it’s God who commanded His people to walk in love toward HIM and men by praying for “all in authority” and to “not curse the ruler of thy people” (1 Timothy 2:1-3; Acts 23:5). Here is an unapologetic scathing rebuke to all those who are condemning Donald Trump instead of obeying God by praying for him (1 Timothy 2:1-6). | Thou Shalt Not Curse the Ruler of Thy People
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;” 1 Timothy 2:1-3
Along with being in darkness, the author has no foundation is biblical truth, namely that GOD ordained civil government in this fallen world.
In a response to this song and those who defend it, Robert Wise writes:
“If you are trying to elect a true prophet with your vote then you are deluded. Those of us who voted for Trump weren’t looking for a prophet, priest or king. We didn’t elect a pope or a pastor. We picked a CEO with business experience, acumen and success who understands markets. We chose a man who loves liberty, freedom and our Constitution. We elected a man who loves the born and the unborn, who will protect life and who promised to appoint judges who are not constructionists. And guess what; even if the man was a prophet, he would have also had feet of clay. Nobody is perfect. For goodness sake, consider King David and Solomon. Consider the apostle Paul. My dear, you would do well to study scripture for understanding what it means to be in the world but not of the world, to discover how to live in a secular world as a believer, how to give deference to authorities appointed by God. And you would do well not to confuse the cries of the flesh, as are heard in this song, with the truth of scripture. One who leads singing in church is neither infallible nor are they necessarily wise.”
“GOD’S PEOPLE ARE TO INTERACT IN EVERY REALM OF SOCIETY EXCEPT THEY SHOULDN’T BRING GOD’S WORD INTO POLITICS!” ~SATAN
There’s no basis to judge or hate Trump. Those who do such are manifesting their own self-righteous and clear disobedience to God (1 Timothy 2:1-3; Jeremiah 29:7, etc.). He told them to pray for the leaders of their country but they would rather judge him. All they have to do to see the vilest of sinners who is in the greatest need of divine mercy, is to look in the mirror (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Repent sinner.
They are totally self-righteous to judge Trump, a mere man. ALLLL have sinned and so if he can’t be forgiven, neither will God forgive those who judge him – Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13.
Robert Hammond writes:
“My wife said something interesting the other night when we were driving to dinner: “If I need someone to come and clean out my septic tank, I’m not really gonna care what kind of a man he is. I just need to know that he cleans out septic tanks, a job that no one else wants to take on.” That about sums it up. Someone said a few years ago that if they were dying in their house because it was on fire and they heard the firemen cursing or saying derogatory statements while they were looking for her, she could care less. Her tax dollars are going towards these men saving lives. Who cares how gruff or rough they are. Their job is to save lives and put fires out.”
The plumbing in our homes necessitates plumbers. This fallen world and there evil therein, necessitates secular government (Romans 13).
WE LIVE IN A FALLEN WORLD WHICH NECESSITATES CIVIL GOVERNMENT IN ORDER TO PUNISH EVIL DOERS (PEOPLE WHO COMMIT CRIMES AGAINST OTHERS).
If you don’t like law and order, where good citizens are protected and evil doers are punished, why not man-up and go live in a third world country where your life is on the line every day. Romans 13
IF you are truly God-fearing, you will obey THE LORD and pray for those HE has put in authority and not spend your time foolishly finding fault with them! Trump is a SECULAR ruler, get a clue. If you truly fear God you should be overwhelmingly joyful to have Trump instead of the satanic, child sacrifice witch who almost got in the White House. Beware of the novices who condemn the president instead of obeying GOD by praying for him (1 Timothy 2:1-3). GOD instituted civil government and so if you have a problem with it, you are out of line with GOD (Romans 13).
Dear SJW “hero”: Would you rather live in a country that is total anarchy? Move there then. Romans 13 anybody?
Put a song to any message and the gullible will buy into it. But Jesus says HIS Word “is truth” yet they don’t have time for God’s Word (John 17:17; Hosea 4:6; 2 Timothy 2:15, etc.). This is clear proof that all one has to do is create a song for a message and people believe that message, biblically illiterate people. Notice: This message brought tears to people’s eyes, not the WORD OF GOD but this song, written by a mere sinful man. These same people who listened to this song and took the times to comment, most likely spent more time doing so than they’ve spent reading God’s Word. THAT is the apostasy.
10 REASONS GOD GAVE US TRUMP AND WHY YOU SHOULD BE THRILLED!
“Let justice roll down” is a repeated lyric of this song. Was is unjust for GOD to give America Trump instead of the abortion queen of the Universe?…. I thank GOD for Trump, with no apology. Jesus is the only LORD and Savior and Jesus gave Trump to America, instead of Satan’s baby butchering high priestest. But some “Christians” are upset? Wow! Just wow. Praying for the President, a SECULAR ruler, is the command of God (1 Tim 2:1-3; Jer 29:7, etc.). Acting as if those who obey God by praying for Trump, agreeing with him, and God-forgid actually like him, and voting for him are worshiping him, is ridiculous and novice. Some among us who claim to be super spiritual hate him and find fault with Trump just like the world – instead of just understanding that he is a SECULAR ruler, a mere sinful man. Isn’t it interesting that the darkest, diabolical people in the world hate Trump? Some act as if they are upset because Trump prevented the world’s high priestest satanic, baby butchering witch from being president. They seem up set that millions of precious, innocent babies are alive today due to Trump being elected. The first day in office he canceled tens of millions of dollars in abortion funding. Yet, they find nothing to be thankful to God for. Being “unthankful” is directly related to self love (2 Timothy 3:2). If God can’t and doesn’t set up and use pagan, wicked secular rulers, please explain to us all why history is littered with such examples:
— Why did God dare use sinful Egypt and Pharoah to supply His people with riches?, and
— Please explain why God used a wicked secular king named Artaxerxes to enable the building of the walls around Jerusalem in the days of Nehemiah and Ezra?
— Tell us all why God chose to use wicked Cyrus as His “hammer”, His “battle axe” to destroy Babylon? (Jeremiah 50:23; 51:20)
— If the LORD doesn’t use evil men in government to do His will, what about Cyrus, the pagan king of Persia, and how God used him to allow God’s people to return to Israel after 70 years of captivity? (Isaiah 45)
— Tell us all why the LORD Almighty is no longer in control of HIS-story when He told us “that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.” (Daniel 4:32)
— In light of these facts, please tell us why you judge God instead of allowing Him to be Judge? Moral: GOD has a plan for America, is not willing that ANY should perish, and doesn’t need the puny permission of any mere man to do whatsoever He so pleases.
In a post by Shane Idleman, he wrote:
“Some say, “How can you follow Jesus and Donald Trump?” We are not following a man, we are shaping a movement. A better question to be asking, though, is What direction is the country heading?
- If a leader lacks Christian character but is pointing the nation back to God, is that a bad thing?
- If they are minimizing murdering babies and maximizing godly values, is that a bad thing?
- If they are being a terror to terrorists and making America secure, is that a bad thing?
- If they are honoring hard work and minimizing free handouts, is that a bad thing?
God doesn’t judge a nation based on the character of one man; He judges it based on the spiritual health of her people. Never forget that.”
“Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck. 6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.” Psalms 75:5-7
If those who judge Trump and his supporters are so godly, so God-fearing, why O why can they not see and believe that God is in control and that God chose Trump to be the President of the United States of America? If they were truly trusting THAT God sets leaders in place, why DO THEY HATE TRUMP AND WHY would they want Trump impeached? wouldn’t that be against God’s plan?
If those who condemn Trump and his supporters for not being about the Father’s business, why are THEY themselves wasting their time on something not directly kingdom related? Why are they not about the Father’s business? Self-righteousness? Could it be that they are blinded by their own sinful self-righteousness?

The Over Population Delusion Exposed [video]
FACT: There are 100 people groups that are uncontacted and remain isolated from modern societies which is further proof of over population being an induced myth.
FACTS are dangerous to those who perpetrate lying propaganda. Example:
Threat: There Were 93,331 Drug Overdose Deaths in the US in 2020 and ZERO Deaths from Climate Change in the US in 2020
While these lying agents of the enemy of all souls push the “danger” of “global warming,” the simple facts eviscerate their agenda.
ALL of Creation, Including the Earth and its People, are Exclusively God’s Property
The LORD owns the earth, not you, luciferian. You are an antichrist sinner, less than a spec of dust in contrast to the Almighty who said “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” (Psalms 24:1)
Depopulation Devils Exposed! The earth is the LORD’s and He said He wants it populated! (Psalms 24:1) Those who participate in deciding who lives and who dies are murderers in the eyes of the Almighty. And, any person encouraging people not to have children is encouraging something that is against what God stated and is a divine command that is still in full force – “And God blessed them, and God said unto them, BE FRUITFUL, AND MULTIPLY, AND REPLENISH THE EARTH, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.” (Genesis 1:28)
“Those who believe the over population myth should humbly read the Bible and it will wipe out their ignorance. Especially the book of Genesis.” Shadrack Rotich
No such thing as over population. Anyone who believes that has been deceived by the murderous depopulationists. Not long ago a study was done which proved that every person in the world could live comfortably in the state of Texas. The LORD who made the earth, made it to be inhabited and provide everything for such to happen. These are antichrists who are against the LORD and His plan to fill the earth with people (Genesis 1:28). Over population is a lie to push the agenda of depopulating the earth by murdering billions. It’s time to make peace with your Maker, the Judge of your eternal soul – before it’s too late. Peace with God
Those who believe in this lie of over population are bearing false witness against the Almighty and making a foolish, ungrounded indictment upon our Maker. Totally gullible. Bought the lies. It’s all an evil agenda to communize the world, and a communist world dictator is coming, the antichrist. Communism has never worked and never will – except temporarily for those ruling over the masses. Communism is the few self-appointed elites murderously ruling with tyranny. Only deceived souls are buying this delusion.
Below is a lost soul disagreeing with my above statements:
“The world is grossly over populated. We could do with a few generations who don’t want to have children. If everyone just kept popping them out like you suggest, how does the world sustain that many people?” Amy
MY REPLY:
Who the heck do you think you are pretending to decide who can live and who must die to suit the delusions you’ve gullibly bought into? You are completely selfish, sinner. What if someone, some other luciferian decides that YOU are expendable? – That you don’t matter and should be eliminated? Do you know what Jesus’ Golden Rule states?
“And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.” Luke 6:31
“The earth is THE LORD’s” not yours (Psalms 24:1) One thing’s for certain – There is a God and you are not Him.
“The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.” Psalms 24:1
The LORD made the earth and doesn’t need puny finite beings like us “deciding” that there is not enough room for more people. Total selfishness. It’s not up to YOU to decide if God’s green earth is over populated. You are completely brain washed, indoctrinated into the religion of self-worship, secular humanism. Not long ago an extensive study showed that the whole population of the world could fit in the state of Texas, each person and family with a large piece of land. Case closed. Junk science. Lies.
Regrettably, you don’t yet see the end game agenda of these scams you’ve bought into. The lie of over population and the murderous depopulation agenda is are tools of the evil dictators in order to accomplish global dominance. This will bring the most horrific times the earth has ever seen under the antichrist.
“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.” Matthew 24:21-22

“Cursed be the Man that Trusteth in Man” [podcast]
A Nuclear Revelation
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man” is a powerful verse from the Bible, commonly associated with a specific warning against relying on human strength rather than God.”
So many act like Spurgeon or some other mere man’s writings are on the same level as Holy Scripture. NOT! They prove their idolatry. They are in sin. They glory in mere men and not the LORD! Hell awaits. Jeremiah 17:5; Isaiah 2:22; 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, etc.
God calls us to worship, love, seek, trust, and obey Him as the ultimate authority of our lives in this world.
Another example of this is the idolatry of the demonic fraud CS Lewis!
THIS JUST IN:
“Amen! Amen for Prov 10:22. All glory be to Him!
By the grace of God I discovered last night your website, praise Him, in search for exposure on CS Lewis.
By the grace of God I learnt as a baby believer, 20 years ago, that his teachings are dangerous including that witchcraft book and movie, Narnia. Sadly, so called mature Christians in the UK are considering him a saint, a born again believer.
I sent prayerfully (as I expected backlashes) to my friend last night, a few links exposing CS Lewis including the photo from your website which is brilliant exposure, praise Him but she is still claiming that he ‘was truly a born again’ ….. sending me his videos! It’s a principle: I don’t watch, read listen to CS Lewis and many others! The Bible is so rich in teachings, why do I need CS Lewis!?
My friend is a mature believer, born again believer for over 60-70 years and she cannot see it!
I had to use the VPN and duckduck search engine to get the website exposing CS Lewis, as in the UK, nothing will come up! Most of the Christians are bewitched by Narnia and Lord of the Rings! No wonder the country is in such a state of delusion! May the Lord have mercy!
Many blessings in His Name, V.”
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
Those who look to men, who receive un-biblical counsel instead of testing it against the Word of God, are trusting in mere man and have brought a curse upon themselves (Jeremiah 17:5-6; Acts 17:10-11; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). Those who look anywhere except to the LORD Himself are idolaters, are committing spiritual adultery, and will without exception depart from Him and be lost (v. 5). Their names “shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters” (v. 13). The phrase “written in the earth” is in contrast to their names being “written in heaven” (Luke 10:20; Hebrews 12:23). Hell is in the bowels of the earth and that’s where every single person who is not looking wholly to the LORD will spend eternity (Revelation 20:11-15).
Let me get this straight, you pretend to be saved and yet run to some foolish sinner to get drugged for lack of peace or ability to sleep or depression. You are completely deceived and God is calling you to repent now. If you knew Him, would you not be trusting Him and not sinful mere men? “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD (Jeremiah 17:5).
You’ve tried the CURSE and it never worked…. Are you ready to let CHRIST make you whole?
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert (spiritually dry, desolate), and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. 12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. 13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. 14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:5-14
Psychology/psychobabble, therapy from mere men, sinners…. is a scam, and leaves the victim without hope. Jesus Christ is the only hope for man’s core dilemma—which is sin! ANY person pointing you to a “THE-RAPIST” is demon inspired. They speak against the Word of God and are the child of the devil! See Colossians 2:6-10. SINNERS need the Savior—not some sinner with an indoctrination in the fine of art of applying bandages, never getting to the root. Repent now (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus alone can make a man whole! (Luke 4:18)
Man’s therapy and psychobabble are laughably insufficient and have never once gotten to the root issue of man’s dilemma which is sin. Jesus says that He “came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).
Drugs and psychobabble are laughable mere band aids to rob unbelievers, gullible dupes of their money.
“Jesus Christ maketh thee whole”
Only One can make you whole—the One who made you and died and rose again for you.
“And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.” Acts 9:34
“Yep that’s me, the woman with the Alabaster box. And that is all I need—my alabaster box and Jesus! No need for meds or to be psycho-analyzed by some quack. One touch from Jesus is all I need! Just as the woman who touched the hem of His garment and was immediately healed! Luke 8: 43-48. One touch is all she needed.” Karen Cochran

Modern Day Cult of Personality Exposed [podcast]
What is the Cult of Personality?
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1
Beware when you see any mere man enshrined, basically worshipped by his followers. This is all too common in today’s church world and sometimes it’s very subtle. When people begin putting what a mere man says above what God says in His Word, when they quote him instead of the Bible, you know you have a cult.
One source notes:
“A cult of personality, or a cult of the leader, is the result of an effort to create an idealized and heroic image of an admirable leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise.”‘
CS Lewis has a cult following today, 100%. I’ve encountered it first hand. These people don’t care what you show them as far as the blatant falsehoods he spoke, and have soul tied their affections to him and will defend him no matter what.
A quick search on “what CS Lewis said about the Catholic church”…
“As an Anglican, C.S. Lewis shared many beliefs with the Catholic Church, including the Real Presence in the Eucharist, the necessity of confession, and a belief in Purgatory. However, he explicitly rejected papal authority, the concept of papal infallibility, and certain Marian doctrines.
Shared Beliefs
Lewis held a deeply sacramental and traditional view of Christianity, which aligned closely with Catholic theology:
The Sacraments: He regularly went to confession to a priest and viewed the Eucharist as central to the faith.
The Afterlife: He famously argued that “our souls demand Purgatory”, writing that we would naturally want to be cleansed of our sins before standing in God’s presence.
Devotion: He had a high view of saints and appreciated traditional liturgical practices.”
The same is true for modern day celebrities such as Candace Owens. On a recent live broadcast where she interviewed a man, he showed her live on air, that she was wrong about several things and kindly asked her to apologize several times. Regrettably, Candace was unwilling to apologize, and most of her cult followers backed her up, cheered her on.
She was called to account for false info and didn’t apologize when asked to.
Her followers cheered her on, never stopping to question things.
Their hearts are set on her not Christ (Colossians 3:1-4).
No matter WHAT she says, they believe it.
Wow.
Jesus says:
“I receive not honour from men. … 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?” John 5:41, 44
By saying this, Jesus condemns putting trust in any mere man.
Jesus makes it clear here that anyone who puts their heart affections in a mere man or woman, is unable to believe on the LORD Jesus Christ for eternal life.
“And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another. 7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?” 1 Corinthians 4:6-7
“4:6 He first explains that in speaking about the Christian ministry and the tendency to follow human leaders (3:5-4:5), he used himself and Apollos as the examples. The Corinthians were not forming parties around Paul and Apollos alone, but also around other men who were then in their church. However, out of a sense of Christian courtesy and delicacy, Paul transferred the entire matter to himself and Apollos so that by their example the saints would learn not to have exaggerated opinions of their leaders or to gratify their pride by the formation of parties. He wanted the saints to evaluate everything and everyone by the Scriptures.
4:7 If one Christian teacher is more gifted than another, it is because God made him so. Everything he has, he received from the Lord. In fact it is true of all of us that everything we have has been given to us by God. That being the case, why should we be proud or puffed up? Our talents and gifts are not the result of our own cleverness.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.” John 8:37
“The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.” Proverbs 29:25
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
“LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. 5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.” Psalms 139:4-5
“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12
“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16
1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5
“that no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
“2:5 Paul knew that there was the utmost danger that his hearers might be interested in himself or in his own personality rather than in the living Lord. Conscious of his own inability to bless or to save, he determined that he would lead men to trust in God alone rather than in the wisdom of men. All who proclaim the gospel message or teach the word of God should make this their constant aim.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2
“Sentence” here means verdict.
Prayer of Repentance to be Restored to the LORD: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ and by His precious blood He shed to make me one with You, I come to you—in my sinful state. LORD, I openly acknowledge that I have departed from You and sinfully rebelled against You in the sin of idolatry. Right this moment, if never before, I call upon You, Holy Father, asking You to forgive my sins, to change my life, to break me to the core of my being. I fully believe that Jesus Christ is God Almighty, that He came in the flesh, lived a sinless life as the very only begotten Son of God, died on the cross for the sins of mankind, was buried, rose again from the dead, and is soon going to return! I love You my LORD Jesus and from this moment forward, I am all Yours! I will follow You according to Your Word and Holy Spirit. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me every day of my life that You grant! In Jesus’ name, amen!
