Today's Topic: WATCHING THE ENEMY FLEE
Our verse to claim for today:
It is written:
PSALM 68:1
"Let God arise, Let His enemies be scattered; Let those also who hate Him flee before Him."
Think about it!
Time after time in Scripture, our Lord directed His armies when going to war to simply STAND, to worship Him, to trust Him, and watch, because the battle is the Lord's.
They rose early in the morning and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa; and when they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: Put your trust in the Lord your God and you will endure. Put your trust in His prophets, and succeed."
21 When he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who sang to the Lord and those who praised Him in holy attire, as they went out before the army and said, "Give thanks to the Lord, for His faithfulness is everlasting." 22 When they began singing and praising, the Lord set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were struck down.
23 For the sons of Ammon and Moab rose up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir, completely destroying them; and when they had finished with the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
24 When Judah came to the watchtower of the wilderness, they turned toward the multitude, and behold, they were corpses lying on the ground, and there was no survivor. 25 When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoils, they found much among them, including goods, garments, and valuable things which they took for themselves, more than they could carry. And they were taking the spoils for three days because there was so much.
Our Prayer:
Lord God, Elohim, Holy One . . . we come before You today in repentance, for when faced with enemies in our own lives, we forget to praise you, and often simply try to take matters into our own hands.
Help us, O Lord, and teach us Your ways, that we might gain the victory You have for us, by simply worshipping you . . .
So today, as we JOIN FORCES with thousands of others who love You and who wish to see the man of Your choosing occupy the White House in the next four years, we pledge to WORSHIP YOU in the face of all the negative reports we are seeing in the news.
Lord God, we are EXCITED to see what You will do to our enemies as we worship and praise you . . . and even enter into dancing before You.
Come Lord Jesus we pray, come . . .
The Election: Software Error in Michigan
GOP Claims Software Error Switched 6,000 Republican Votes to Democrat, Used in 47 Michigan Counties
Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel and other GOP officials said the fight over the presidential election isn't over, saying that 47 counties in the state may have used software that was detected to have allocated votes to Democrat Joe Biden instead of President Donald Trump in one county.
"In Antrim County, ballots were counted for Democrats that were meant for Republicans causing a 6,000-vote swing against our candidates," Michigan GOP Chairwoman Laura Cox said in a news conference Friday. "The county clerk came forward and said tabulating software glitched and caused a miscalculation of the votes."
Cox added: "Since then, we have now discovered that 47 counties use this same software in the same capacity. Antrim County had to hand count all of the ballots, and these counties that use this software needs to closely examine their results for similar discrepancies."
Utah AG Supports Trump
Utah AG Sean Reyes Alleges 'Compromised' Election Process, Will Support Trump
Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes announced Friday that he will support lawsuits from President Donald Trump's legal team to deal with the allegedly "compromised election process" in several battleground states.
Reyes, a Republican, alleged that former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden and his allies know that Trump "will win if only verified legal votes are counted," repeating a claim from Trump about alleged election fraud. "We are making sure that happens but looks like courts may have to decide that," he said on Twitter.
Reyes then announced that he took personal leave time to "prepare and support litigation in several" states, without elaborating. It's not clear what state he would be going to, but the Deseret News reported he is in Nevada, where a Trump team-filed lawsuit is pending.
Trump's team filed lawsuits in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and the team announced they would join a lawsuit in Arizona.
Votes in the states, as well as in Alaska, North Carolina, and other states are still being counted.

N.J. Voters Support Rep. Van Drew
Rep. Van Drew, Who Switched to GOP Because of Trump Impeachment, Wins Reelection
The former Democrat U.S. representative who switched parties over House Democrats' impeachment of President Donald Trump won reelection in a tight race in New Jersey, according to new projections.
Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) won another term, outlets including the Associated Press projected on Friday.
Van Drew, 67, is a former state lawmaker who won his first term in 2018.
He was challenged by Democrat Amy Kennedy, 41, a former public school teacher and the wife of former Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.).
According to the latest results, Van Drew received nearly 160,000 votes, about 15,500 more than Kennedy.
Van Drew declared victory on Tuesday with a lead of around 10,000.
"This has been a long, hard, brutal election," Van Drew told a crowd of about 200 supporters at the Oar House Restaurant in Sea Isle City. "A lot of money was spent to remove me from my seat."
Kennedy last issued a statement on Thursday, writing: "There are tens of thousands of ballots still to be counted. Every vote needs to be counted and every voice needs to be heard."

Our Weekly Call to Repentance
Dear Saints,
A lifestyle of REPENTANCE is so close to the heart of God.
Indeed, He commands us to " "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!" (Matthew 3:2)
How, then, can we approach His Throne of GRACE, in repentance?
We invite you to join us every week on Sunday evening, as we explore this vital topic together. We present a different prayer focus each week, leading us into repentance, so that we might approach His Throne of Grace in repentance, presenting ourselves to Him as a pure and a spotless Bride, without spot or wrinkle. (Ephesians 5:27)
Praying together, we desire to fulfill the mandate of Psalm 139:
" Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; 24 And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting." (Psalm 139:24)
You can join us, any Sunday evening, at 10:00 p.m. EST by calling:
712-770-5350
Access Code: 150411#
WELCOME!
". . . and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
"Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place." (2 Chronicles 7:14,15)
