Happy Thanksgiving!
“Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” KJV 1 Thessalonians 5:16-16
It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks in “everything” when it looks like the election was stolen again.
It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks when we see the devastation that the Covid Hoax brought …unprecedented deaths from the vaxx, businesses and jobs destroyed, the election laws changed so the election was much easier to steal, liberties lost, unprecedented government money printing and spending bringing unprecedented inflation—the destruction of the value of our dollars.
It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks when we see the real threats of nuclear war including from the Russia/Ukraine war, Iran, North Korea and China. It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks when we fill up our gas tanks in the land of plenty when our natural resources are locked up by an incompetent in the White House, the puppet of criminals, anti-American globalist greenies and banksters.
It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks when the borders are wide open and illiegal aliens, criminals, drugs and terrorists are coming across our borders daily.
It’s difficult to rejoice and give thanks when our children are being stolen from parents by perverts, pedophiles and educrats in the government schools paid for by we the taxpayers.
But the advice never-the-less stands: “Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks.”
When wickedness prevails, as it does in America, and the blessings of God have been withdrawn, just like in the Old Testament, calamity comes upon a nation.
Had it not been for the Covid-lockdowns millions of parents and grandparents would still have been unaware of the child abuse going on in the schools. Many awakened, many have removed their children from the government indoctrination centers, many more are homeschooling, many have become engaged in their local school boards…give thanks and rejoice!
Because of the lies of the Covid conspiracy many have awakened to the criminal enterprise that is Big Pharma and the medical establishment. Many courageous physicians have told the truth regardless of the consequences. Many are seeking natural alternatives and rejecting the lies of the drug pushing syndicate. Rejoice and give thanks!
Because our liberties were stolen many are more vigilant in protecting the liberties which we have and are working to restore those we have lost. Many will never obey another lockdown. Rejoice and give thanks!
Because of the crisis at the border State governors and legislatures have begun standing up against the tyranny of the Federal Government. They are rediscovering “State’s Rights”, the Tenth Amendment, and finding ways to protect their citizens and “share” the real burden of the massive invasion of illegals. Texas is building its own border wall. Florida and Texas are bussing illegals to Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Martha’s Vineyard, and other Democrat cities. We can give thanks and rejoice that leaders who believe in America first are rising out of the malaise of Democrats and weak-kneed and compromising Republican RINO’s.
Inflation has exposed the lies of the government printing press dollars in which the value of the dollar has fallen 99% in the last 100 years. Inflation is a tax imposed by government to pay for their profligate spending. Many are now aware that government has caused inflation and inflicted this pain upon their family. Before anything can be fixed there must be an understanding of what is broken. Rejoice and give thanks that the criminal bankster conspiracy of the private Federal Reserve Bank and the treachery of our Federal Government are being exposed.
Let us give thanks and rejoice that the criminals in the White House who have caused the price of gas and diesel to skyrocket by limiting production in the US and pushing the stupidity of electric vehicles, which depend on fossil fuels for electricity, have themselves exposed the lies and calamity of the “green new deal”. This has awakened a movement among many Republican State Treasurers in which they are pulling out their state’s investments in companies whose woke ideologies harm their states industries and citizens. Hooray! Money talks!
It’s hard to find anything to rejoice over considering the recent stolen election. However, it may result in gridlock in Congress which, with regards to government, is almost always a blessing. It may also result in Republicans rising to the occasion and investigating in the House of Representatives the corruption in the government. I don’t have a lot of faith in that because most of the Republican leadership are themselves compromised…but it’s a possibility. So we will give thanks and pray without ceasing!
I have been unable to come up with any reasons to rejoice or give thanks over potential nuclear war festering around the globe except that it hasn’t happened yet. With the traitors in the White House and Congress I worry that they may continue policies which exacerbate problems with other nations which will result in nuclear war. However, perhaps this possibility will bring us to “pray unceasingly” for our leaders and the leaders of other nations. We can give thanks in that. It may also encourage each of us to be more prepared physically to take care of our families in times when disaster encompasses us. In that we can give thanks and rejoice. It may cause us to evaluate our own behavior and character… Are we following the Lord’s commandments?
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself.” KJV Matthew 22:37-39
If we recommit to keeping the Lord’s commandments and doing better each day we can certainly rejoice! The Lord’s chastisement itself is a blessing.
“And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth.” KJV Hebrews 12:5 & 6
Each day we have another opportunity to work for righteousness and pray for the providing and protecting hand of the Lord. So Pray without ceasing. Rejoice and in everything give thanks!
From George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation November 26, 1789
“Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and—Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me ‘to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed…with grateful hearts…’”
An Unseen Threat to our Constitution and Country
By Janine Hansen, Eagle Forum National Constitutional Issues Chairman
Over the last few years those promoting an Article V Constitutional Convention have become frustrated because they have been unable to achieve the 34 states required by the Constitution to call a convention for proposing amendments. As a result, in their desperation to plunge our country into a dangerous Constitutional Convention, they are creating new ways to count.
Proponents of a Convention now promote aggregating all kinds of decades and centuries old miscellaneous applications by states as different as banning polygamy and child labor amendments. Of course they have always told us that a convention would be limited…no risk of a general-unlimited convention, but now that’s what they want as attested to by their aggregation plans.
Proponents begin aggregation with an application by New York asking for a Bill of Rights passed in 1789. How in the world can a 233 year old application be considered to be contemporaneous, expressing the current feelings of the representatives of New York?
They have many new ways to count applications depending on the theory of how these applications add up to 34 states. Included in these preposterous aggregation lists are applications combining such diverse applications as those trying to avert the Civil War, the direct election of Senators which became a reality when Congress passed the 17th Amendment, and the Balanced Budget Amendment.
One of the critical ways opponents of a convention have successfully fought the Article V Constitutional Convention has been to rescind all previous Article V applications in individual states. Opponents have successfully rescinded all previous Article V applications in 10 States including: Idaho in 2000, Virginia in 2004, Montana in 2007, Delaware in 2016, Maryland in 2017, New Mexico in 2017, Nevada in 2017 (unanimously), Colorado in 2021, New Jersey in 2021, and Illinois in 2022. In addition, the state of Hawaii has never passed an application for an Article V convention.
Right now in the U.S. Congress is H.C.R 101 which says “Congress hereby calls a convention for proposing amendments.” This new threat to our Constitution and County has appeared with still another new way to count applications from the states. The threat has moved from State Legislatures to Congress. HR 8419 creates a subsection (c) of 1 U.S. Code, 106, which directs the Archivist of the United States to count all non-rescinded applications asking Congress to call a Convention; and to notify Congress of its duty to call a Convention when the Archivist receives non-rescinded applications for a Convention from two-thirds (34) of the States.
WOW! That means that right now according to the way the Archivist is directed to count applications for an Article V Constitutional Convention there are 39 states which have never rescinded all of their previous applications. So according to the newly invented way to count, if these Congressional bills pass, the constitutional requirement of 34 states required to call a convention would be reached and Congress could call a convention next year.
This becomes an even greater threat now that Republicans will dominate Congress, when you consider that it has been almost exclusively the Republicans in State Legislatures that have promoted and passed the recent applications for Article V conventions.
Chief Justice Warren Burger is the highest authority in the United States to ever speak out on a Constitutional Convention. He stated: “I have also repeatedly given my opinion that there is no effective way to limit or muzzle the actions of a Constitutional Convention. The Convention could make its own rules and set its own agenda. Congress might try to limit the Convention to one amendment or to one issue, but there is no way to assure that the Convention would obey. After a Convention is convened, it will be too late to stop the convention if we don’t like its agenda…”
FTX Crypto Launders Money through Ukraine for the Democrats
“The sudden collapse of crypto exchange ‘FTX’ and its Bankruptcy filing today, has revealed that FTX presently suffers from $10-$50 BILLION in liabilities with almost ZERO assets . . . and among those liabilities, are ‘investments’ made by . . . . UKRAINE . . . .
“At this early hour, it appears that tens-of-billions in American ‘Military Aid’ to Ukraine, which was allegedly to be used to fight Russia, was cash that Ukraine DID NOT use to fight Russia, but instead invested into FTX! Right now, it looks like all the money is gone.
‘It seems Ukraine was receiving money from the US, Ukraine sent it to FTX, and FTX sent it to Democrats, who originally voted to send it to Ukraine. At this hour, it appears to some observers, to be pure, criminal, money-laundering, and a criminal conspiracy to violate campaign finance laws.
“Sam Bankman-Fried was the second-largest individual donor to Democratic causes in 2021–2022 election cycle with total donations of $39.8 million, only behind George Soros. Of this, $27 million was given to Protect our Future PAC, bankrolled by Bankman-Fried.”
“The US Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission are looking into whether FTX.com mishandled customer funds. Bankman-Fried is also being investigated by the US Securities and Exchange Commission for potential violations of securities rules.”
