The following article is an excerpt from Prayer A to Z.
When we think about confidence, even when we say the word “confidence,” it makes us feel good doesn’t it? It gives us a lift, gives us energy, strength and courage. And I suppose that is because the word is so much associated with positive energy. And whether we believe it or not, that energy comes from God. It is a special gift that He has given to all people—the energy, the drive to believe and have hope in themselves and in the gifts that they possess. Yes, we are all created in His image; and since God Himself has self-confidence—believing and having hope in Himself—all people down deep within themselves have this same self-confidence too. It is inherent in the way He has created us.
But listen to this: God gives a special confidence (a more powerful and more…
Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place. NASB
Have been decreed for. This term may reveal more than you think. It could either be translated as “are determined for,” “are decreed for,” or “have been decreed for.” The preposition “for” may also be translated as “upon.” The basic meaning of this verb is “cut” or “divide.” According to Barns, “The meaning would seem to be, that this portion of time—the seventy weeks—was “cut off” from the whole of duration, or cut out of it, as it were, and set by itself for a definite purpose.” Dr. Leon Wood (from Thomas Ice’s commentary) says, “The thought is that…

Prayer is all about carrying burdens, not only the burdens of people but the burdens of God. He calls us to be burden bearers with Him for people, for the sake of His kingdom.
THE BURDEN OF GOD
Throughout the Bible we see the great love and compassion of God toward all people. Psalms 86:15 tells us, “He is full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth.”
Jesus was and is full of compassion toward us too. While He was on this earth He was always going about from city to city preaching and teaching God’s good news; and He was healing all who were sick and diseased. And when He saw the multitudes He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd (Matt. 9:35-36). And now…
Clearly, she is rushing the impeachment to prevent Trump from ever running again as President. And all her rhetoric of wanting to protect this country is bogus. Her main drive is to have someone in office who is aligned with the global agenda and the Great Reset. And she knows that that will not be Donald Trump, that he has been a great obstacle to the global objective. She cannot allow him ever again to be in office. And she—and all the Democrats—are stopping at nothing to achieve that objective.
The evidence is not in yet, but I suspect that she had something to do with the National Guard not arriving on time. I suspect also that she had something to do with the poor showing of the Capitol Police. I also suspect that she had something to do with the incitement or the encouragement of the rioting.
Furthermore, the impeachment went on without much discussion at all. The other side (Trump’s people) had no chance to rebut. That is very unamerican and wrong, and she knows it. Also, I think one of reasons why she was rushing to impeach is to get ahead of any investigation that may implicate her. And I’m sure she is taking steps to cover up any incriminating evidence.
One thing I have noticed about Nancy Pelosi is her ability to sound so righteous and to be so quick to point the finger at someone else, like Trump, when all along she is planning something evil. Yes, I think she is very devious. Why was she in China Town trying to convince Americans to come to China and party, just at the time that the virus was being released? I suspect something very devious. She can’t be trusted. I pray that truth will be revealed very soon. “[He will] bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men’s [men and women] hearts…” (1 Cor. 4:5).
Daniel 9:24Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place.
NASB
Seventy weeks. This term literally means seventy sevens, which equals 490. It has the potential to mean either 490 days or 490 years. Here it is clear that the Lord intends it to mean years; for this number, in years, is the exact duration that Israel had been rebellious by violating the Sabbath—and so God is using the same number of years for determining Israel’s future (most of which is now in the past). Let me explain this further…
The Sabbath year was every seven years; and so we are saying that Israel was disobedient not only for that Sabbath year…
Satan’s has a master plan for global control and world domination. As I see it, after Satan and the Antichrist (who will come on the scene later in the Tribulation), there are four levels of authority to Satan’s plan.
Level Four: Satan’s Elite Followers. Under Satan will be his followers, the Elite. The bible tells us that there will be Ten Kingdoms. They may exist now, or not. But they certainly will be revealed after the Rapture and in the Tribulation. Most of the elite leaders I think do exist now, and they are planning their schemes; and I’m sure they will have input into forming the ten kingdoms. And when the Antichrist comes on the scene, of course, he will have the most say in what happens, because he will be controlled and empowered by Satan.
We don’t know how connected all the elite are to Satan. Some may be true Satan worshippers, but others may be just blind followers. Regardless, all are willing followers—whether they truly believe in Satan or not.
Level Three: Suppliers of Big Tech. You’ve heard the saying, “follow the money.” Well, Satan is well aware that his master plan will need lots of money. Big Tech will be the suppliers of the master plan, and they will use their money and power to build the plan, and also to shut down all institutions and business that don’t go along with the plan—as they have jumped on board with the Great Reset, pushed by the founders of the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab. Hence, we have seen recently how Amazon, Google, and Twitter very quickly shut down Parler, simply because they are a conservative company that does not agree with the master plan.
Level Two: Enforcers. The enforcers are very important. They are the link between Big Tech (and the Elite) and the common people, you and me. They are the liberal left politicians, along with the media. As it appears presently, almost all of the Democrats are in this group, from the House and Senate on down to the Governors and Mayors. If they are Democrats, it appears that they are included in the master plan. And certainly, if the police and the military are on the left side, they too will be included.
Level One: Willing Followers. This group is by far the largest. They do not have any authority, but their willingness to follow established liberal authority makes them powerful and very dangerous to all outsiders (those conservatives who are against the master plan). Their power exists in being reporters of all violations of the plan. Many will probably pride themselves in reporting violators and they will be rewarded.
The following article is an excerpt from this book.
Since David prayed, “May my prayers be counted as incense before Thee” (Ps. 141:2, NASB), one thing we may conclude is that not all prayers are as incense. Some in fact may be offensive to God. Such are those prayers that are offered with wrong motives, which come from a heart with impure desires (Ja. 4:1-4).
Christ is the sweet aroma of our prayers. If our prayers are not sweet before God it is because we have not allowed Christ to dwell in us and change us. But if He is our reason for living, if He is loved by us and if we have let Him be Lord over us, to teach us and guide us and help us, and if we have let Him renew our mind, thus, if we have received from Him such precious graces of faith…
Why are Big tech companies like Amazon, Google and Apple trying to silence conservative speech by shutting down the twitter company Parler? Why are they trying to kill the competition? Why are they trying to kill free speech? Parler CEO is concerned.
The silencing of conservative speech on social media has spiraled into a “coordinated effort” by big tech to close down Parler, according to the social media platform’s CEO John Matze.
“Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day,” Matze told “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo.
Matze was appearing after releasing a statement on the attempts to “destroy” his business.
“This was a coordinated attack by the tech giants to kill the competition in the marketplace,”
Matze’s statement read. “We were too successful too fast.
“You can expect the war on competition and free speech to continue, but don’t count us out. #speakfreely.”
Matze’s statement comes as Amazon is removing the platform from its webservers, which might take the conservative social media platform down for about a week.
“Sunday at midnight Amazon will be shutting off all of our servers in an attempt to completely remove free speech off the Internet,” he wrote. “There is a possibility Parler will be unavailable on the Internet for up to a week as we rebuild from scratch.
“We prepared for events like this by never relying on Amazon’s proprietary infrastructure and building bare metal products.”
Matze called out Amazon, Google, and Apple for orchestrating the “coordinated effort.”
“We will try our best to move to a new provider right now as we have many competing for our business; however, Amazon, Google, and Apple purposely did this as a coordinated effort knowing our options will be limited and knowing this would inflict the most damage right as President Trump was banned from the tech companies.”
The move was “an assault on everybody,” told Fox News.
“They all work together to make sure at the same time we would lose access to not only our apps, but they’re actually shutting all of our servers off tonight, off the internet,” Matze said. “They made an attempt to not only kill the app, but to actually destroy the entire company. And it’s not just these three companies. Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day.”
So, we have heard what happened, but do we really know why? Are the Big Tech companies really that concerned about the safety of the people in the Capitol or of democracy? Are they really that afraid of Trump and what he will do next? Are they afraid that free speech by Parler will incite more violence? Just what is their agenda?
I suggest that there is something much more devious going on. I suggest that the Big Tech companies are aligned with the movement called The Great Reset. It is a movement with a master plan for global control. This movement, led by “elitist” leaders like Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab and George Soros, have an agenda to tear down all old systems and buildings and to get rid of anything and anybody that doesn’t fit into their plans for a new world and a new world order.
And guess what? Conservatives, especially Christian conservatives do not fid into their master plan. So, this is why they are trying desperately to stop us and to shut us down. They, through Big Tech, will continue to try to silence our speech anyway they can: to shut down our twitter access, email accounts, Facebook accounts, and all social media access. In addition, as you know colleges have been shutting down conservative speech for some time. And now they are attempting to shut down Christian churches through the pretext of a pandemic. Most recently, they have diabolically stollen an election in order to quickly bring in their willing puppets, Biden and Harris, who will lead the country into the Great Reset—into the New World Order.
