Trump Warns US in ‘Peril’ in Memorial Day Message

Former President Trump wished a happy Memorial Day to Americans but warned that the United States is in great “peril” due to individuals he said are working from within the government to destroy the country.

Trump said via his social media platform, Truth Social, that the country “has never been in greater peril than it is right now” and called on supporters to help him “stop the communists, Marxists and fascist ‘pigs’ at every turn and make [America] great again!”

The former commander-in-chief added that he sends warm regards, “especially to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for the country they love, and to those in line of a very different, but equally dangerous fire, stopping the threats of the terrorists, misfits and lunatic thugs who are working feverishly from within to overturn and destroy our once great country.” (The Epoch Times) Read more

- Lord God, we are blessed to have our 45th President, Donald John Trump, speaking words of TRUTH in these deceptive times. We ask that You would continue to strengthen him in the days ahead, so that his voice may yet be heard across our land. In Your Name, Abba, we offer this prayer, amen and amen.

"Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or in dread of them, for the Lord your God is the One who is going with you. He will not desert you or abandon you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)

Major Congressional Leaders Signal Support for Debt Ceiling Bill Despite Backlash

All major congressional leaders have signaled their support for Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) debt ceiling deal despite backlash from members of both parties.

On May 27, after a months-long standoff, McCarthy announced that he and President Joe Biden had reached “an agreement in principle” to raise the debt ceiling “that’s worthy of the American people.” In addition to raising the debt ceiling, the bill would cap non-defense spending at its previous levels, enhance work requirements for government assistance, and reclaim unspent COVID-19 relief funds, among other measures.

Since then, most congressional leaders have signaled support for the deal, dubbed the Fiscal Responsibility Act, even as it faces criticism from both the left and the right.

For progressives like Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), leader of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, the package is too right-wing. The right-wing of the GOP, likewise, has decried the deal as a “surrender” to the left, saying it concedes too much to Democrats.

The House Freedom Caucus, a powerful force in the House GOP, has also signaled it’s against the deal. Reps. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), Chip Roy (R-Texas), Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), Dan Bishop (R-N.C.), and Ralph Norman (R-S.C.), among others, have each said they won’t support the package.

But despite bipartisan discontent with the package, major congressional leaders have each signaled their support for it. (The Epoch Times) Read more

- Once again, Holy One, we lay this matter at Your feet. We ask that You would make a way, where there seems to be no way, for these different members of the Republican Party would come together so that this bill can be passed. We thank You for the tenacity demonstrated by House Leader Kevin McCarthy, who is finding the strength to "stay the course" until this job is done. Amen.

- "I will bring the blind by a way they did not know;
I will lead them in paths they have not known.
I will make darkness light before them,
And crooked places straight.
These things I will do for them,
And not forsake them."

(Isaiah 42:16)

Nasrallah warns IDF intel chief: We are the ones threatening war

Amid recent security tensions in the north, Hezbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah spoke on Thursday night for the "Day of Resistance," where he marked 23 years since the IDF left Lebanon, and responded to statements made by the Israeli Military Intelligence Directorate Aharon Haliva.

"You are not the ones threatening war, it is us who do so," Nasrallah emphasized. "And any such war will include all of Israel's borders." He further said that "any wrong action in Palestine, Syria or Iran could lead to a major war."

He further said that "after the Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000 and the withdrawal from Gaza, the concept of 'Greater Israel' no longer exists." (Jerusalem Post) Read more

- As Israel continues to be threatened by enemies without and within, we ask that You, Holy God, would cause them to look to You for protection, strength and guidance. We thank You that You will contend with those who contend with them, in Your Name, amen and amen.

From whence comes my help?

4. Netanyahu convenes 'preliminary' cabinet meeting on high cost of living - Jerusalem Post
 

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened on Tuesday a meeting with Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and Agriculture Minister MK Avi Dichter along with professional teams, in what was deemed a "preliminary meeting" ahead of the establishment of a new ministerial committee on the high cost of living, which the prime minister announced on Sunday ahead of the cabinet's weekly meeting that he would form.

According to a statement by the Prime Minister's Office, the sides discussed the "urgent steps" necessary to fight the high cost of living. They decided that Smotrich, along with Economy Minister Nir Barkat, will present steps on "opening the market," cancellation of highly concentrated sectors and reducing regulation, as well as a timetable for their implementation.

While the specifics of the committee's powers and action plan were not disclosed, Netanyahu emphasized on Sunday ahead of the cabinet meeting the importance of economic stability and combating the cost of living. He directed the cabinet secretary to draft a plan for the committee's establishment, to be submitted in the next cabinet meeting, highlighting that this issue is a top priority for the government.

5. Abbas signs decree criminalizing ‘Nakba’ denial - Times of Israel

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has signed a presidential decree that criminalizes denying the Palestinian “Nakba” surrounding Israel’s establishment in 1948.

The decree states that anyone found guilty of denying the “catastrophe” inflicted upon Palestinians by Zionist forces in 1948 will face up to two years in jail. It defines the “Nakba” as “a crime against humanity” carried out by the “Zionist gangs,” Israel’s Channel 12 reported.

The decree appeared to be an extension of a more hardline approach Abbas has taken in recent years as he grapples with the apparent failure of his effort to secure a sovereign Palestinian state alongside Israel on the pre-1967 lines through largely diplomatic means. (Read more)

1. Trump Pledges Executive Order on ‘Day One’ of Presidency to End Birthright Citizenship for Illegal Aliens, - Brietbart

Former President Donald Trump, the GOP frontrunner for president in 2024, rolled out a new policy pledge on Tuesday in which he promised if elected he would sign an executive order on day one of his second term in office effectively ending birthright citizenship for illegal aliens and so-called “birth tourism.”

The policy proposal, contained in one of his Agenda 47 videos his campaign released, was obtained exclusively by Breitbart News ahead of its public release.

Trump argues that birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens serves as a “magnet” and an “incentive” for future prospective migrants to attempt to enter the country illegally. (Read more)  
- Thank You Father, that President Trump is developing strategies to deal with the untenable issues created by the current administration.  We pray for him to have wisdom in all he does and we bind every advisor who would lead him into unrighteous decisions, in Jesus name.  We feel Your continued anointing on President Trump and we pray for him to stand fully on Your path and in Your calling.

- "The Lord will be awesome to them, For He will reduce to nothing all the gods of the earth; People shall worship Him, Each one from his place, Indeed all the shores of the nations."  (Zephaniah 2:11)

2. Deep-Pocketed Donors Bankroll Global Panel Cracking Down On ‘Misinformation’ - The Daily Caller

Wealthy organizations with a history of backing left-wing causes are partnering with a new worldwide group of researchers to combat online misinformation.

The International Panel on the Information Environment (IPIE) convened in Washington for its first official meeting on Wednesday, bringing together over 200 researchers from 55 countries to focus on the decline of public comprehension and confidence in science, according to The New York Times. It is partnered with groups such as the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and the Skoll Foundation, according to its website.

Many of IPIE’s backers have a history of bankrolling left-wing groups and causes. The Ford Foundation supported the launching of the Black Feminist Fund in 2021 with $15 million in seed funding, according to its website. (Read more)  

- Holy King, we call for these troublesome organizations with deep pockets and a contempt for freedom, free people and capitalism to be brought under Godly truth and authority.  We bind this agenda of censorship, among others, which are hostile to the gospel of Jesus Christ and liberty.  We bind and rebuke their plans to implement a communist culture against our Constitution, in Jesus name.  We forgive the people and pray for the goodness of God to fill them and bring them to repentance, in Jesus name.

3. School district called out for pro-gender transition book available to kindergarten students - DML News

The book “Call me Max,” which teaches children about what it means to be “transgender,” is reportedly available to kindergarten students in a Minnesota school district.

Parents advocacy group Crisis in the Classroom (CITC) shared a video of a mother testifying at a school board meeting over the book, which she said was an assault on the “sacred God-given identity of young males and young females,” according to 13 WHAM ABC.

“First graders are busy enough trying to master phonics and trying to learn how to read, why would we allow authority figures to plant seeds of doubt in their existence simply as a boy or a girl, that it might be a mistake?” mother LaDawn Severin asked the board.

“And we wonder why there’s a mental health crisis. Wise teachers, even if they were given this, would never read this to their classroom!” Severin added. (Read more)  

- HalleluJah Holy One for those who are standing up boldly to protect children and speaking truth to "power", in Jesus name.  We stand for victory with the parents to have all of this unholy material removed from the lives of their children in Jesus name.  We pray for a God-given covering of protection over the minds and hearts of our children and the Spirit of Innocence to wash over them, in Jesus name.

4. Mass shooting in Florida - DML News

At least nine people were shot Monday night when gunfire erupted near a popular Florida beach packed with Memorial Day revelers, authorities said. The shooting was sparked when two groups got into an altercation, police said during a press conference.

One person of interest was arrested, Hollywood Police spokesperson Deanna Bettineschi said during the news briefing.
It’s unclear what the ages of the victims are, but some of them were rushed to Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Bettineschi said.

Memorial Healthcare System spokesperson Yanet Obarrio Sanchez told NBC6 up to five victims were being treated at the trauma center at Memorial Regional Hospital.
There were no details on their conditions or ages, but “a couple of minors” were being treated, Sanchez said. (Read more) 

- Oh Father of Lights, we pray for Your healing and presence for every person who was injured in this terrible action.  Holy King, we know that gangs are growing and becoming more evil and we stand against this tyranny and pray for Your light to overwhelm the darkness bringing these souls to salvation, in Jesus name.  May the goodness of God shine forth upon everyone caught up in this tragedy. 

- "'For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, Saying to you, "Fear not, I will help you."'"  (Isaiah 41:13) 

5. Republicans secure massive pipeline approval in debt ceiling deal - DML News

The highly-anticipated debt ceiling package House Republicans and President Biden announced on Sunday includes a provision fast-tracking a massive 303-mile West Virginia-to-Virginia natural gas pipeline project for approval.

The unexpected carveout green-lighting the billion-dollar Mountain Valley Pipeline — which is 94% complete, but has been mired in a lengthy permitting process for years — was immediately cheered by West Virginia lawmakers who have touted the project’s expected economic benefits for years. The pipeline is projected to create 2,500 construction jobs, $40 million in new tax revenue for West Virginia, $10 million in new tax revenue for Virginia and up to $250 million in royalties for West Virginia landowners.

6. Target link to group pushing secretive transgender policies in schools is deeper than previously known - DML News

A Target Corporation senior executive in the marketing department maintains a position with a controversial K-12 advocacy organization called GLSEN – Target’s Pride Month partner – which is focused on integrating gender ideology at all levels of K-12 schools, from curriculum to district policy.

Carlos Saavedra is a vice president of brand marketing at Target and a treasurer at GLSEN. GLSEN focuses on getting districts to adopt policies that will keep parents in the dark on their child’s in-school gender transition, providing sexually explicit books to schools for free, and integrating gender ideology at all levels of curriculum in public schools.

The report notes that Target gives about $2.1 million annually to  GLSEN, whose mission calls for gender ideology to be integrated into all classes, even math, and provides educators instructions on how they can make math “more inclusive of trans and non-binary identities” by including “they/them” pronouns in word problems. (Read more)   

- Mighty God, we repent for having allowed these types of groups and organizations to have gained such a strong foothold in our education and marketplace mountains.  We repent for having been complacent, sleeping or unaware of our culture and government and thus, permitting these agents to bring forth this demonic agenda.  We rise up against this perverted plan to twist up and destroy the God-given beauty of humanity that Almighty God has wisely and divinely created without mistakes or errors, in Jesus name and we pray for every person ensnared by the lies to be set free by truth, salvation and the love of God.

- Father, we pray for house prices to be attainable for the average citizen seeking to buy.  We call for a massive turn-around in the government's economic agenda that's meant to crush the middle class and make them look for handouts, in Jesus name.  We call for capitalism, freedom and we, the people, to be strong and victorious against communism, poverty and fear, in Jesus Holy name.  In the midst of the coming challenges Father, may souls find their strength and courage in You, every step they take.  Amen.

8. McCarthy vows to hold FBI Director Wray in contempt over Biden probe - Just The News

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday threatened to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress if he does not comply with a request for a document about an alleged bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden.

“I have a message for FBI Director Christopher Wray: If he misses today's deadline to turn over subpoenaed documents to Congress, I am prepared to move contempt charges against him," McCarthy, a California Republican, wrote on Twitter and said during an appearance on "Fox & Friends." 

The threat to hold Wray in contempt comes after House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) indicated last week that he may seek to hold the FBI director in contempt if he refused to give House investigators the documents that they requested. (Read more)   

- Father, we pray for there to be real and actionable consequences to be seen in the charge of contempt of Congress.  We also call for follow-through by Speaker McCarthy and everyone else involved, in Jesus' name.  We are a people seeking justice and truth, Holy King, and will not be silent while we are set aside by deception and manipulation within this government and media.  We do cry out for Your guidance in this matter and we pray for full exposure of the corruption coming from the Biden administration, in Jesus' name.  

- "He breaks in pieces mighty men without inquiry, And sets others in their place.  Therefore He knows their works; He overthrows them in the night, And they are crushed."             (Job 34:24-25)

Government characterizing Christians as Nazis

The Daily Jot, Bill Wilson, May 30, 2023

The biggest threat to your Constitutional guaranteed right of religious freedom is the very entity that is supposed to uphold freedom of religion—the Federal government. In particular, the Biden Administration is continuing the hostile policies of the Obama Administration toward Christians and conservatives through its administrative authorities. A recent investigation by the Media Research Council (MRC) reveals that “the Biden administration is weaponizing a government-funded anti-terrorism grant program in an effort to destroy conservatives, Christians and the Republican Party.” MRC has obtained documents showing that Biden has revamped a Trump era program to target those with which it disagrees.

The Trump Administration used the Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant Program (TVTP) to prevent terrorism. MRC reports the Biden Administration is now using the funds to target “he entire spectrum of the political right and Christians through “media literacy and online critical thinking initiatives” and other so-called training seminars as part of a coordinated effort to make America into a one-party system.” As an example, MRC cites a chart used by DHS for its training program “equates mainstream groups with militant neo-Nazis, including: The Heritage Foundation, Fox News, the National Rifle Association (NRA), Breitbart News, PragerU, Turning Point USA, the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), the American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF) and the Republican National Committee, among others.” Read More

An outburst of awakening

by The American Renewal Project
The German Augustinian monk and religious reformer Martin Luther [1483-1546] was the catalyst and seminal figure of the 16th-century Protestant Reformation. In the fall of 1517 he drafted a set of propositions for the purpose of conducting an academic debate on a particular well-known Catholic method of exploitation in the Middle Ages, the practice of selling indulgences. This practice involved a monetary payment of penalty that, supposedly, absolved one of past sins and/or released one from post-death purgatory.1

Claiming the sale of indulgences was unbiblical, Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg.2 Luther’s objections were particularly directed toward what he deemed as 1) the heresy of the purchase and sale of salvation, 2) aggressive marketing practices of German Dominican friar Johann Tetzel [1465-1519], and 3) the scandalous conduct of ‘pardoners’.

Unbeknownst to himself, the small-town monk Luther had just lit the fuse of a religious reform movement that swept Europe in the 1500s. Known as the Protestant Reformation, the movement resulted in the creation of a branch of Christianity called Protestantism, a name used collectively to refer to the many religious groups that separated from the Roman Catholic Church due to differences in doctrine.3

. . . What appears certain is that very little remains of the robust theological underpinnings and inherent power [Gr. dunamis] that took off in Germany in 1517, soared in England in 1534, and began its triumphal march on the Eastern Shores of America in 1620.

What was once publicly declared and testified to, remains today, often even privately, unstated and unexpressed.

Famed sociologist and best-selling author Robert N. Bellah [1927-2013] spells out what it was that, after arriving at America’s shores in 1620, launched America’s meteoric rise in world history: “The Bible was one book that literate Americans in the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries could be expected to know well. Biblical imagery provided the basic framework for imaginative thought in America up until quite recent times.” 

Cunningly expunged from American culture by God’s antagonists and foes, the Bible in contemporary secularized America has been largely removed from church houses, schoolhouses, statehouses, and courthouses, so that Biblical illiteracy now monopolizes the culture

Still and all, Gideons and Rahabs are entering the public square, and a cloud the size of a man’s hand is appearing on the horizon. [1 Kings 18:44-46]

The Tunguska event was the biggest asteroid impact in recorded history. How did it vanish without a trace?
During the Tunguska event, over 8 million trees covering an area of 830 square miles were flattened when an asteroid entered Earth's atmosphere.

On June 30, 1908, an asteroid flattened an estimated 80 million trees in Siberia over 830 square miles (2,150 square kilometers). Dubbed the Tunguska event, it is considered the biggest asteroid impact in recorded history. Yet no one has ever found the asteroid fragments or an impact site. 

The asteroid lit up the skies in a remote, sparsely inhabited region near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River. It unleashed a 10 to 15 megaton explosion — similar in size to the 1954 Castle Bravo nuclear bomb test, the fifth-largest nuclear detonation in history. "The sky was split in two, and high above the forest the whole northern part of the sky appeared covered with fire," an eyewitness reported.

One popular theory is that the asteroid formed Lake Cheko, a freshwater lake about 5 miles (8 kilometers) from the explosion epicenter. The lake is about 1,640 feet (500 meters) wide and 177 feet (54 m) deep. Luca Gasperini, research director at the National Research Council of Italy, and colleagues said the lake's cone-like shape and depth resembled an impact crater. In a study published 2012 in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, they estimated that the sediments at the bottom of the lake had been building for 100 years, while evidence of trees at the bottom of the lake indicate the waterhole covers an old forest.

Hundreds Gather On Pensacola Beach to Pray, Worship, Receive Christ: 

'We're Just Getting Started' 
Hundreds gathered at Pensacola Beach during Memorial Day weekend to pray, worship, and give their lives to Jesus Christ. More than 30 people were baptized and dozens of others gave their lives to Christ during Sean Feucht's "Let Us Worship" latest stop in Pensacola, Fl. "A new JESUS PEOPLE Movement is here," he wrote on social media. Hundreds gathered on the warm, sandy beach lifting up the name of Jesus Saturday–just 24 hours before Pentecost Sunday.  "What began with a SOUND became a COMMISSIONING (Acts 2:6)," he wrote referencing Pentecost Sunday. He added, "The baptism of the Holy Spirit was not to make our worship cooler, our podcasts better, or our marketing slicker. It was unto the BOLD proclamation of the GOSPEL. One that can't be canceled, censored, or silenced."

14 local churches and ministries jointly sponsored the "Let Us Worship" event. "These are days of great collaboration for the Church in America. Time to unify and PUSH BACK darkness over our cities," he shared adding, "Pray for a harvest today!!!" As CBN News has reported, the Christian artist has traveled across the country since the COVID-19 pandemic hosting these events as a way to spread God's Light and hope. People of all ages and from different walks of life have come out to these worship events to receive salvation, be baptized, and entrust their lives to the Lord. "Dozens of salvations and 30 baptisms already on the beach in Pensacola!!!!! You can't STOP the move of GOD," he shared. "We're just getting started!" (CBN) Read more 
- Father of heaven and earth, we lift PRAISE and give GLORY to You! Thank You for answered prayer in bringing a thirst for Jesus over our nation. Pour Your Holy Spirit upon each state, bringing transformation that all eyes will "see" and all ears will "hear." In the mighty name of Jesus, we declare a victorious harvest of baptisms and salvations across America! Amen

- "Then, after doing all those things, I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions." (Joel 2:28)  
Thought for the Day

"He frustrates the devices of the crafty,
So that their hands cannot carry out their plans.
He catches the wise in their own craftiness,
And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them.
So the poor have hope,
And injustice shuts her mouth." 

(Job 5:12,13,16)

Classic Hymns

Jesus Loves Me Even Me 

To listen to this classic hymn, CLICK HERE

Words and Music:  Phillip Bliss

Scripture: The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Romans 5:5

Lyrics:
I am so glad that our Father in Heav’n
Tells of His love in the Book He has giv’n;
Wonderful things in the Bible I see,
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.

Refrain
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me.
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.


Though I forget Him, and wander away,
Still He doth love me wherever I stray;
Back to His dear loving arms I do flee,
When I remember that Jesus loves me.

Refrain

Oh, if there’s only one song I can sing,
When in His beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song through eternity be,
Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me!

Refrain

Jesus loves me, and I know I love Him;
Love brought Him down my poor soul to redeem;
Yes, it was love made Him die on the tree;
Oh, I am certain that Jesus loves me!

Refrain

If one should ask of me, how can I tell?
Glory to Jesus, I know very well!
God’s Holy Spirit with mine doth agree,
Constantly witnessing Jesus loves me.

Refrain

In this assurance I find sweetest rest,
Trusting in Jesus, I know I am blessed;
Satan, dismayed, from my soul now doth flee,
When I just tell him that Jesus loves me.
