Truckers Band Together to Protest Vaccine Mandates
|
|
A new page in Canadian history has just been written as truckers from all over Canada and the United States converged in Ottawa, Ontario on January 29, 2022 to protest vaccine mandates. The sound of honking horns and bustling engines couldn’t be ignored as the convoy of over 50,000 freedom fighters rolled their way into Ottawa, the home city of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Their goal was to stand against a federal mandate implemented January 15, 2022 which states that “unvaccinated Canadian truck drivers entering Canada will need to meet requirements for pre-entry, arrival and Day 8 testing, as well as quarantine requirements.”
The United States implemented a ban on unvaccinated foreign truck drivers soon after on January 22. The Department of Homeland Security now requires that non-U.S. individuals entering the United States via land ports of entry or ferry terminals along the Northern and Southern borders be fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
An impressive caravan, these Canadian and American Patriots determined to stand in the gap for anyone who has been coerced or forced to get vaccinated at the hands of a government who calls them extremists, for simply wanting control over what goes into their bodies. Currently between 16-20% of Canadian truckers are not vaccinated, but the convoy included both vaccinated and unvaccinated truck drivers who formed a unified position against mandates.
Describing the large numbers taking part in the event, Benjamin Dichter, a spokesman for the Freedom Convoy 2022, told the Toronto Sun, “It’s 70 kilometers long…I have seen footage from an airplane. It’s impressive.” (IFA)

1. Bennett: Israel to Deploy Laser Missile Defense System By Next Year - Jewish Press
Prime Minister Naftali Bennett announced Tuesday the IDF will deploy a laser missile defense system “within a year,” according to journalist Amichai Stein, who works with Israel’s KAN News public broadcaster.
Bennett, who made the announcement at Israel’s two-day 15th annual INSS (Institute for National Security Studies) Conference, said the system will first be deployed in an experimental format in southern Israel, and then elsewhere.
“This will allow us, in the medium to long term, to surround Israel with a laser wall that will defend us from missiles, rockets, UAVs and other threats that will essentially take away the strongest card our enemies have against us,” Bennett said.

2. Amb. Herzog: Amnesty denies Israel's right to exist - Israel National News
Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Herzog condemned the report released today by Amnesty UK accusing Israel of Apartheid.
"Israel is a democracy which is committed to international law and sensitive to human rights and therefore appreciates the valiant work of organizations who genuinely strive to promote human rights. Amnesty UK’s report on Israel which was released today is a totally different story," Ambassador Herzog said.
"This report, which frames Israel as an apartheid state, doesn’t belong in the category of criticism designed to promote human rights but rather in the category of ideological de-legitimization of the very right of Israel to exist as the nation state of the Jewish people.
"Claiming that Israel has built and operated an apartheid system since its inception in 1948 essentially means that it was established on an immoral foundation and therefore has no right to exist. The report itself is blatantly ideologically motivated, biased and full of lies and inaccuracies. It totally distorts the true meaning of the phrase apartheid to suit its political purposes, and it also totally distorts the true nature of Israel. (Read more)

3. Russian jammer in Syria said to cause interference with flights to Israel - Times of Israel
Airplanes flying into Israel from the direction of the Mediterranean Sea are again experiencing navigation problems, due to a signal spoofing system installed by Russia in Syria, Kan news reported Monday.
According to the report, pilots began having issues a few weeks ago and Israel has sent a message to Moscow informing it that the system is interfering with its civilian airspace.
Russia, however, has reportedly rebuffed the Israeli request, insisting the system is needed to protect its soldiers stationed in Syria. (Read more)

4. COVID-19: Green Pass narrowed to large events starting next week - Jerusalem Post
The need to have a Green Pass will be limited to large events such as weddings, the coronavirus cabinet decided Tuesday evening, after Hebrew University of Jerusalem researchers said the peak of the Omicron wave is likely over.
Starting on Sunday, a Green Pass only will be needed at large events, the list of which has yet to be published. Locations that voluntarily set up an antigen testing stand as a requirement for entry will receive a partial subsidy from the government.
The Green Pass will also be updated to include those who have been vaccinated with two doses within the past four months, patients who have recovered in the past four months and anyone who has received the third or fourth dose of the vaccine without any time limit. (Read more)

5. Mossad unit head quits – fourth official to resign since Barnea took over agency - Times of Israel
The commander of Mossad’s “Caesarea” special operations division has reportedly quit due to disagreements with director David Barnea.
The officer, who can only be referred to by the Hebrew initial Bet, resigned after a heated meeting with Barnea, in which the latter said the unit and its subordinates have “became a burden on the organization,” Channel 13 news reported on Sunday.
The report said that due to the difficulties operating Israeli agents around the world, Barnea wanted to make significant organizational changes to the division that Bet was unwilling to implement. (Read more)

1. US Weighs More Troops to Eastern Europe Beyond 8,500 Now on Alert - U. S News
The Pentagon said on Monday it is in active discussions with Eastern European allies about possible U.S. troop deployments to NATO's eastern flank, as Washington moves to reassure jittery NATO allies in the face of a Russian military buildup near Ukraine.
Any decisions on new troop movements would be separate from the some 8,500 forces in the United States who were put on alert last week to potentially bolster a NATO rapid response force, the Pentagon said, adding context to President Joe Biden's comments on Friday about potential near-term deployments to Eastern Europe.
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said the troops that Biden was referring on Friday to could potentially be redeployed from within Europe.
"We're going through the rigorous work of providing options for the commander in chief should he decide to do that ... in close consultation with the actual allies themselves," Kirby said. (Read more)

- Lord of the Angel Armies, we pray that You would quickly establish a time of peace between the Russians and Ukranians. You know all that is transpiring here and the motives behind it. May Your shalom settle in over the area and Your wisdom envelop the leaders and diplomats. We ask that no person or groups be permitted to initiate war or skirmishes outside of Your perfect plans and timing. Bless Your chosen people in Russia and the Ukraine; may they soon have the desire and ways and means to make aliyah to Israel.

2. Former Kansas Teacher Led All-Female ISIS Battalion Wanted to Blow Up Shopping Mall and College: Justice Department - DJHJ Media
A former teacher and an American citizen is being accused of heading an all-women ISIS battalion. Allison Fluke-Ekren, 42, was apprehended in Syria and was transferred to the FBI on Friday. Now, she is a genuine terrorist. Will she serve time in the DC gulag? You already know the answer to that question, don’t you?
Fluke-Ekren has been active in terrorism since at least 2014. Fluke-Ekren was involved in planning an attack on a college campus in 2019. The indictment was sealed at the time, but has now been unsealed since her capture. Her plan was for the terrorists to dress as infidels and carry a bag full of explosives.
She also put forth a plan to target a mall by parking a car full of explosives in the underground parking lot and detonating it with a cell phone. She once said that any attack should kill a lot of people or it’s not worth the time. Sounds like a real peach of a woman. (Read more)

- Oh Father God, how we praise You that this demonic woman was apprehended before any of her evil plans were executed. Bless those who knew to track her and gather evidence. May justice be properly served and Your sentence pronounced upon her. We ask, Lord, that You expose others like Allison who walk among us. May they be stopped well before any of their terrible deeds are carried out, especially members of the ISIS battalion that Allison trained. Forgive and deliver them from the evil one.
- "Woe to those who deeply hide their plans from the LORD, And whose deeds are done in a dark place, And they say, “Who sees us?” or “Who knows us?” (Isaiah 29:15)

3. Dana Perino takes a 'trip down memory lane' to Biden's past Supreme Court filibuster - Fox News
President Biden is pledging to nominate a Supreme Court justice based on whether that person is Black and female, despite filibustering a similar landmark nominee for the District of Columbia federal appeals court, the panel on "The Five" discussed Monday.
On "The Five," host Dana Perino – a former spokeswoman for the Justice Department and White House during the Bush administration – recalled how Democrats so fervently opposed the nomination of then-California Supreme Court Justice Janice Rogers Brown, a Black woman who grew up in heavily-segregated Alabama, to the high-profile D.C. circuit court of appeals.
"I would just like to take a quick trip down memory lane -- if Democrats really wanted to see a Black woman elevated to the Supreme Court, why did they block Janice Rogers Brown back during the Bush administration?" she asked, noting that she was working within the nominating process at the time. (Read more)
|
|
- Father God, we know that Your beloved Son had some choice words for hypocrites. We pray earnestly, Father, that only the person of Your choosing replace Justice Breyer, regardless of their gender or outward appearance. May this next Supreme Court Judge have a heart and mind to follow after You, judging wisely, fairly and righteously. In Jesus mighty name!
- But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.” (I Samuel 16:7)

4. Ilhan Omar will seek re-election in 2022, campaign announces - Fox News
“When I first ran for this office there was one thing I kept coming back to. Something I said to myself and to the voters over and over: I believe that a better world is possible. I still believe that," Omar, who represents the 5th Congressional District in Minnesota, said in a statement announcing her re-election, WCCO reported.
Omar became the first Somali American elected to Congress when she won her initial 2018 bid with 78% of the vote, after incumbent Rep. Keith Ellison announced he would not seek re-election. She most recently won her re-election campaign in 2020, with 64% of the vote. She has been a controversial figure at times and was criticized in 2019 for suggesting House supporters of Israel have dual allegiances.
Omar is a member of a group of Democratic lawmakers referred to as "The Squad," which also includes Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Cori Bush (D-Mo.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.). (Read more)

- Precious Lord, we ask that You would shut down the spirit in our lawmaking body that speaks so boldly against Israel and does not have a grasp of the Judeo-Christian concept of freedom and liberty as given by You, Yourself. We pray for a wave of righteousness to sweep over her district to cleanse it of wrong thinking about the role of a Representative in Congress and especially cleanse it of rampant voter fraud. Lord, we pray for another to take her place if she does not repent.
- "I will depose you from your office, and you will be ousted from your position." (Isaiah 22:19)

5. Biden administration RESCINDS deportation of Mexican illegal immigrant who crashed into and killed a 19-year-old woman - Daily Mail
An illegal immigrant accused of killing a woman in a hit-and-run car crash in Texas in November 2020 is no longer facing deportation after Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas changed rules to lower the number of removals. Heriberto Fuerte-Padilla was driving drunk in November 2020 when he caused a car crash, killing 19-year-old Adrienne Sophia. The accused tried to flee the scene but was caught by police.
While the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) initially wanted authorities to deport Fuerte-Padilla after Texas issued its punishment, the federal agency changed its mind because the individual does not qualify for priority deportation under Mayorkas' new rules issued in September 2021.
Under Mayorkas' recently updated rules, according to The Washington Times, many deportation requests were canceled for illegal immigrants who are accused, charged, pleaded guilty to felony charges of evading arrest or even those who have already been convicted of drunk driving, drug possession or domestic assault. (Read more)

|
- Oh, Lord, let not foolishness reign in the policies of the Department of Homeland Security. Lord, we pray that You would impress upon Secretary Mayorkas that he should make rulings that protect our citizens instead of being lenient on those who have already broken the law just by being here. If he cannot do this, we pray for a replacement who will make right rulings that are pleasing to You and protect our citizens.
- "Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man." (Psalms 71:4)

6. Republican-run states see more recovered jobs post-pandemic: Labor report - Just The News
Republican-led states recovered more jobs after the pandemic and have lower unemployment rates than Democrat-led states, according to a report from the Labor Department. Of the 20 states with the lowest rates of unemployment, 17 have Republican-controlled legislatures and 16 have GOP governors. The statistics are similar when measuring states by jobs recovered compared to those lost during COVID. Of the top 20 states for jobs recovered, 18 have Republican-controlled legislatures and 16 have Republican governors.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) pointed to the report as a win for the GOP as states recover from COVID-related lockdowns and mandates. The five worst states for unemployment in December, in order, are the Democrat-controlled states of California, Nevada, New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.
The five worst states for jobs recovered are mixed on politics, however. Hawaii is the worst, followed by Wyoming, Louisiana, Alaska and North Dakota. (Read more)

- Father God, we thank You that You have brought prosperity to these red states and helped them recover from the horrible policies of the COVID lockdown. We pray that other states would look to the red states for policy revisions that will bring growth and prosperity to their own states. We know that those who look to You for wisdom in governing will reap a benefit only You can bring. May the rest of the country follow them and may they know where the blessings are coming from, thus resulting in praise across our land to You.
- "Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel." (Judges 5:3)

7. Putin says US ‘ignored’ Russia’s Ukraine demands, but leaves room for more talks - New York Post
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that the US had “ignored” Moscow’s concerns about the West’s stance toward Ukraine, shortly after Secretary of State Antony Blinken told his Russian counterpart, Sergey Lavrov, that the Kremlin must withdraw its troops from its western border and reiterated the threat of “swift and severe consequences” if Russia invades.
In his first public comments about the crisis since the end of last year, Putin claimed the Ukraine standoff was an “instrument” for the US to achieve its goal to “contain Russia’s development.”
“It can be done in different ways, such as pulling us into some armed conflict and then forcing their allies in Europe to enact those harsh sanctions against us that are being discussed today in the United States,” the Russian leader said at a news conference alongside Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.

- Abba, this situation is particularly treacherous for the U.S. because Joe Biden is mentally unstable and can't be trusted. We pray that You would intervene with this whole dangerous situation. Give Anthony Blinken the wisdom to either be quiet or stand down and muzzle him from making idle threats that could lead to war, in Jesus name. Let Your presence across the land, in response to prayers, bring calm and equitable negotiations to Ukraine and Russia.
- "Though fear had come upon them because of the people of those countries, they set the altar on its bases; and they offered burnt offerings on it to the Lord, both the morning and evening burnt offerings." (Ezra 3:3)

8. Smoking gun documents tie Nancy Pelosi's son to fraud and bribery scheme - The Daily Mail
Nancy Pelosi's son listed himself as the owner of a flop house tied to a fraud and bribery scheme prosecuted by the FBI, in documents newly unearthed by DailyMail.com.
In the documents, Paul Pelosi Jr. signed statements that he was the property owner, 'the party legally and financially responsible for this proposed construction activity' and agreed to 'abide by all applicable laws and requirements that govern Owner-Builders as well as employers.'
And they even show Pelosi Jr., 53, applying for one of the very same permits that building inspector Bernie Curran and 'permits expeditor' Rodrigo Santos have been indicted for. The Department of Building Inspection (DBI) form, signed by Pelosi Jr. and dated December 7, 2017, is a 'smoking gun' that evidences the House Speaker's son's close links to the high-profile public corruption criminal case. Curran and Santos are due in federal court in San Francisco this week. (Read more)

- So we pray for justice to be extended to the Pelosi family. May everyone involved in this and every other scheme, plot or plan, fall under the legal system as it is written. We call for prosecutors of integrity and courage who will follow these proceedings to their logical and legal conclusion, so that justice is fully served. In Jesus name.
- "Judgments are prepared for scoffers, And beatings for the backs of fools." (Proverbs 19:29)

9. Canada's Trudeau 'not intimidated' by truckers' COVID protest - Reuters
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday said Canadians were disgusted by the behavior of some people protesting against COVID-19 vaccine mandates in Ottawa and said he would not be intimidated.
Dozens of trucks and other vehicles have jammed up the city center since Friday. Thousands descended upon Parliament Hill to complain about Trudeau, COVID-19 vaccine mandates and masking requirements but by mid-Monday afternoon, many had left.
We are not intimated by those who hurl abuse at small business workers and steal food from the homeless," Trudeau told a news conference.
"We won't cave to those who engage in vandalism ... There is no place in our country for threats, violence, or hatred."
Senior members of the official opposition Conservative Party, which last year lost its third consecutive election to Trudeau's Liberals, praised the demonstrators. (Read more)

- Father, we command truth to be spoken over this situation and we take full authority over lies, deceptions and accusations and bind them now in Jesus name. We ask You Father, to loose provisions, revelations, more salvations and victory for the people of Canada and the world at large. May these "Freedom Convoys" be powerful in declaring that we will not be slaves to anyone and, having done all, we will stand, together, in Jesus name.
- "And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell." (James 3:6)

The global cabal of destruction
The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, Tuesday, Feb. 1, 2022
|
|
The Bidens, Pelosis, Bushs, Clintons, and a host of former Senators and Representatives have all had close financial ties and business dealings with communist China, many of which have been lobbying on behalf of communist military and intelligence agencies. It’s a bipartisan betrayal of the United States. Corporate America, the same. An extensive investigative expose, “Red Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win,” by Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer, is revealing how American politicians and executives are selling out the United States to the communist Chinese. Sadly, it seems this is just the tip of the ice berg.
When you look at the entire handling of COVID, it began with China. But it extended quickly to a global entity, the World Health Organization (WHO), that set the standard for “defeating” COVID—A historic global lockdown of healthy people and the control of their actions. WHO’s tentacles extended to the US, where the government dictated that there was no treatment for the disease, except for remdesivir and ventilators, which it mandated. This mandated treatment resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands, while life-saving treatments were denied by the US government and governments around the world. Then came the Emergency Use Authorized vaccines and the propaganda campaign that demonized anyone who refused to take the serum. All this, for a disease with a 99% survival rate. Fearmongering for health.
All throughout these lockdowns online stores like Amazon and Wal Mart made billions—both having strong connections with China. Big pharma made billions because governments refused effective treatments and mandated big pharma’s protocols and financially incentivized hospitals to use them, while threatening healthcare workers who suggested alternatives. Corporate media, many who have ties to China, also acted on behalf of governments to carry the “safe and effective” propaganda, ignoring all the common sense warning signs that lockdowns, failed protocols, and vaccine efficacy were suggesting a failing and deadly approach. Dissenters were censored. The protocols, lockdown mandates, vaccine mandates and more all resulted in a tremendous wealth transfer. This was a case where the rich very much so, got richer.
The cabal behind these actions, and those who assist in carrying them out, are motivated by greed, power and pride. Whatever they do, they do to the benefit of their own personal interests, the foundation of which is laid upon the lap of satan. 1 Timothy 6:9-10 says, “But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” These people will surely get their reward. Unfortunately, because of their power and foolish pursuit of the wind, they force many sorrows on others. We need to stand firm for what is right and just to counter the global cabal of destruction.

Anti-Israel Christian Leadership Spreads Dangerous Message
|
|
|
A top Presbyterian leader's broadside against Israel in a letter issued on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day may have gone too far even for his own denomination. Dr. J. Herbert Nelson II, the stated clerk of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church USA, or PCUSA, said: "the continued occupation in Palestine/Israel is 21st-century slavery."
"Nelson's remarks were so offensive and inflammatory that people who would normally just sit on the sidelines and throw up their hands, even they have been moved to say, 'We can't allow this,' " Rev. Todd Stavrakos, a co-convener of Presbyterians for Middle East Peace (PFMEP), a Christian group that criticized Nelson, told JNS.
"We're hearing that there are lots of rumblings behind the scenes. I think there are more groups that will be coming out and making statements in the very near future," he added.
Nelson not only condemned Israel, but the American Jewish community for failing to join in his condemnation. "Given the history of Jewish humble beginnings and persecution ... I would also hope that the Jewish community in the United States would influence the call to join the U.S. government in ending the immoral enslavement." (Prophecy News Watch)

Prayer: Abba Father, we are dismayed at the attitudes coming from this particular group of Christian leaders. We stand in the gap and we repent for these anti-semitic attitudes and beliefs towards our Jewish brothers and sisters. We pray that you would open their eyes to understand the covenant You have with Judah. May they see the heart that you have for the Jewish people!
Scripture: But this is what the LORD says: I would no more reject my people than I would change my laws that govern night and day, earth and sky. I will never abandon the descendants of Jacob or David, my servant, or change the plan that David’s descendants will rule the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Instead, I will restore them to their land and have mercy on them.” Jeremiah 33:25-26

Lightning Bolt Stretching 447 Miles Over 3 US States Sets World Record: "Absolutely Extraordinary"
|
|
A bolt of lightning that stretched nearly 500 miles across three U.S. states is the new world record holder for longest flash.
The single flash extended 477.2 miles across Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi in April 2020, the World Meteorological Organization said Monday. That beat the old record set in 2018 in Brazil of 440.6 miles.
Also in 2020, a single lightning flash over Uruguay and northern Argentina lasted 17.1 seconds, nipping the old time record of 16.7 seconds.
Normally lightning doesn't stretch farther than 10 miles and lasts less than a second, said Arizona State University's Randall Cerveny, who is the chief of records confirmation for the meteorological organization.
"These two lightning flash records are absolutely extraordinary," Cerveny said in an email.

With Rumors of War Swirling, Ukrainian Pastor Says, 'People Like Never Before Are Open to Jesus Christ'
|
|
With tensions running high between Ukraine and Russia, the White House is now urging American citizens living in Ukraine to get out while they can. "The security situation in Ukraine continues to be unpredictable due to the increased threat of Russian military action and can deteriorate with little notice," the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine posted on its website on Wednesday. "The U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens in Ukraine to consider departing now using commercial or other privately available transportation options."
Some Americans who've lived there for a long time are taking a wait-and-see approach before evacuating. American missionary Jane Hyatt is one of them. "I have lived here for 26 years and as of today, I do not have any plans to evacuate. I'm watching to see how things go and we'll just trust God and see what happens next," Hyatt told CBN News from her home in Ukraine's capital Kiev. Hyatt runs Father's Care, a Christian rehab center for kids.
Six hours east of Kiev, in Kharkiv province, Anton Tishenko's church is in day 16 of a 21-day prayer and fasting initiative. "We gather with our church at 7 a.m., and so we pray about peace in Ukraine, we pray about revival, so we keep praying, we keep fasting and we believe God will protect because He's a very faithful God," Tishenko, pastor of New Generation Church, one of the largest evangelical congregations in Kharkiv, told CBN News. Despite tense times, Tishenko says God's power is moving throughout the region. Last year, 27,000 people packed a stadium in Kharkiv for an evangelistic crusade organized by the church. "People like never before are open to Jesus Christ," Tishenko said. He says more than 10,000 people came forward to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. (CBN) Read more.

How Can I Keep From Singing?
To listen to this classic hymn, CLICK HERE
Wordsand Music: Robert Lowry
Scripture: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. Psalm 146:2
Lyrics:
My life flows on in endless song;
Above earth’s lamentation
I hear the sweet though far off hymn
That hails a new creation:
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear the music ringing;
It finds an echo in my soul—
How can I keep from singing?
What though my joys and comforts die?
The Lord my Savior liveth;
What though the darkness gather round!
Songs in the night He giveth:
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that refuge clinging;
Since Christ is Lord of Heav’n and earth,
How can I keep from singing?
I lift mine eyes; the cloud grows thin;
I see the blue above it;
And day by day this pathway smoothes
Since first I learned to love it:
The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart,
A fountain ever springing:
All things are mine since I am His—
How can I keep from singing?
