THE RESTORATION OF AMERICA… a follow-up on God’s urgent call to intercede and pray for America!!!

We are truly One Nation Under God!!!

That is both our heritage and our history as a nation; and it is this piece of parchment, shown in the above picture, called our U.S. Constitution, together with the faith and covenant of our forefathers with God, who wrote it, is ALL that separates us from every other nation in history; and it is for that reason that all the forces of hell today have been unleashed, even within our own government, to bring this contract down, and to undermine permanently what so many have sacrificed and bled for; and to permanently destroy our Constitutional Republic!

The question that God is posing today to us, as Americans is…

Are we going to let them?


America’s only salvation and restoration, as a “Christian Nation,” can come by ONLY one way, and that One Way is through faith in Yeshua Ha’Mashiach (Please note: the name Yeshua Ha’Mashiach, literally translated from Hebrew, not through Greek, is Joshua, the Messiah—Anointed One)!

It is NOT politicians who have a voice that God listens to; it is not those who are a part of false religions, be it Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism, Jehovah Witnesses, Secular Humanists, or whatever name or label by which they may call themselves; and regardless, all of them by the way, the Bible says clearly that they are ALL worshipers of false gods; and none of these people can have access into God’s presence!

It is ONLY those who are in covenant relationship with Messiah Yeshua, whose sins have been washed and forgiven through the redemptive and propitious work of Yeshua on Calvary’s cross… it is ONLY the Bride of Christ (who is the Church of Christ) who have access into God’s Holy of Holies; and it is ONLY through the Blood of Yeshua that any of us have access before God, that our prayers are heard!

America’s future does not depend on the might of our military, though a “Sword” in today’s world is a necessity; but a sword by itself, without the Truth and the Power of the Living God behind it, to back it up, is worthless; and so America’s military might alone will not be enough to save us.

No, at the root of America’s problem is a broken covenant relationship with the God of our forefathers, and until that broken covenant is dealt with, and mended, through individual and national repentance; then America shall remain outside of our rightful position and covering (including blessings and protection) as a nation.

There is ONLY one way home from where we are today… and that is through Yeshua Ha’Mashiach!

Out of all the people alive on planet earth, at the time Abraham was born, the Bible tells us very clearly that father Abraham was chosen by God for only ONE reason, to be the father of our faith and also the progenitor of the linage through which Messiah would come; and that one reason was because God said that Abraham would be a father to his children, and that he would teach them and bring them up in the ways of the Lord God of Israel!!!

The very thing that the Secular Humanists and Progressives of the sixties said was irrelevant and unimportant; and which Christians then exquisite, and allowed the courts of that time to remove prayer and the Bible from our Public Education system; that one thing that was the tie that held our nation’s future intact; and insured our blessing and protection from God… once that was removed there was only one direction that our nation could have gone in… and we are here today because of that fact!

We must understand that all of that which was removed from our classrooms in 1963, through the efforts of just one woman mind you; and all that which we can see that has happened since, to both our society and our culture, is the very thing that put us on this slippery slope, that has caused us to fall further and further away from the God of our forefathers, and of the Bible.

Even in nature a vacuum will not long be tolerated; and so it is also in the spiritual; and so when America decided officially that belief in God was no longer important in the education of our children, and that prayer and the Bible both were to be removed from our classrooms, it was from that point forward that American society was set adrift, to the point that we have even a Muslim today in the White House, who claims he is a Christian; and the Christians can’t tell the difference!

This Urgent Call to Prayer (see below) that was issued by Cindy Jacobs is a sign, I believe, that God is about to move in a different direction; and whether we as Americans will be with Him or against Him, will depend on what we do in this time?

We are called to intercede and to pray; to turn from our wicked ways; and to seek after God’s face, which speaks of personal and intimate relationship; and then God says that He will hear our prayers from Heaven, and that He will heal our land; but again… these are only the prayers of Believers, who are Blood bought and paid for, whose sins are forgiven through the work of Yeshua, only these people have a voice with God!!!

Pray folks, watch and pray; and then be prepared for some serious changes that are to befall our land, and soon!

God is moving on; and we as Americans will be either One Nation under God, or not… and that is the question?

For we will be on one of two sides… either we will be with God, or against Him!

Shalom,

An Urgent Call for Massive Intercession

Dear Believers in Christ,

A few days ago as I watched a news business channel, I received the following word from the Lord. As you can tell, it’s a serious warning. I know the nation is in a delicate condition now, but I believe that I need to send this word out. I ran it by Chuck Pierce and he said that it fits with what he has been hearing, only more specific on the economic side.

This is a wake up and it’s so strong.

A Serious Warning and a Call for Urgent Prayer

A warning received from the Lord on July 17, 2010 in Dallas, Texas:

A few days ago as I watched the financial news, the Lord clearly spoke these words to me, “The nation is teetering!” I then had a vision of the economy of the United States, on what looked like a “scale of justice.” He then went on to show me that we must fast, pray and cry out to the Lord for mercy and solutions that will balance righteousness and justice.

In praying to the Lord for wisdom about this word, I realized what must be done—it is time for the Church in America to stand up and take her place once again in the nation. I mulled over the fact that we have already lost so many of our liberties and this is what I heard, “If the Church doesn’t fast and pray for a faster acceleration of revival and awakening, the iniquitous sin structures in the nation will tip the scale that is teetering and there will be another great depression.”

Of course, this word shook me to the core of my being. Many of you may be aware that the Holy Spirit spoke to me almost a year before the September 2008 economic meltdown, that there would be “no more business as usual.”

The balance of the economy is fragile and depending on the way we fast, pray, and how we cast our votes in the next election will depend on which way the scale tips. We must pray and do. We must pray and act. We must awaken the Church to the state of the nation without fear of pleasing man or fear for our reputation.

God is watching to see which way the die will be cast. If we shift the nation to Biblical values in the arenas of righteousness and justice, the economy will follow. If we continue in our stance of support for Israel, the Stock Market will stabilize and prosper, and that which is fragile will become strong. Supernatural solutions will be sent from Heaven that our natural minds could never reason, nor grasp and they will heal the land.

If we do not heed in this hour there will be a tumbling of our economy and dark days will be ahead to such a degree that our nation will possibly never fully recover from and have the greatness as a nation that God has favored us with for generations.

God have mercy. God send an awakening. God send salvation.

God is a friend of mine…

At that time Jesus answered and said:

“I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.”

And Jesus is saying to you today:

“Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” (Mat 11:25-30)

“But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”
(Acts 1:8)


Angels Among You
[Monday, July 19, 2010]
“Yes, My angels are carefully assigned to watch and operate.  They are sent from the Father.  They are about you now to work and protect with calculated movement.  Know that no harm shall enter your dwelling,” says the Spirit.

Prophetic Scripture:

Psalm 34:7 – The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him and delivereth them.

We are in a season where I believe we will become increasingly aware of the movement of God’s angels working among us.

As you sit reading this just now, angels are carefully assigned to you.

God’s operation of angels is intricately planned for your benefit.  The Bible says further in Hebrews 1:14, that His angels are ministering servants for the heirs of salvation.

Praise God—that is you and I!  Their purpose is to care and minister to us.  Take note that angels are keeping camp in your house.  They want to work on your behalf.  As you obey and speak the Word of God, their ears perk up.

They get excited to do something!  They listen for that Word to come from your mouth (Psalm 103:20), so they have something to work with.

They hear it and go into action—warring, working, planning and serving!  You have nothing to worry about today, angels are watching.

They have been sent from the Father to ensure your security and safety.  Rejoice today, because of the angels no harm will come near you!

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I see within me today the vision of angels around me.  You have promised that they are always near me.  Therefore, I am confident that I am completely protected, from all harm or evil of any form.  I say that angels work now to obey God’s Word in me as I speak it out today.  Thank You Father, for Your ministering angels.  In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.

Our assignment today is to keep calm:

A lesson taken from Two Listeners:

God Calling – Keep Calm:

“Keep your Spirit-Life calm and unruffled.”

Keep your Spirit-Life calm and unruffled. Nothing else matters. Leave all to Me. This is your great task, to get calm in My Presence, not to let one ruffled feeling stay for one moment. Years of blessing may be checked in one moment by that.

No matter who frets you or what, yours is the task to stop all else until absolute calm comes. Any block means My Power diverted into other channels.

Pour forth – pour forth – pour forth – I cannot bless a life that does not act as a channel. My Spirit brooks no stagnation, not even in rest. Its Power must flow on. Pass on everything, every blessing. Abide in Me.

See how many you can bless each day. Dwell much in My Presence.

“Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.” – Proverbs 4:23

Shalom,

Skip Barland

P.S.
Let us remember that this country of the free, consisting of 50 states, each originally formed as a sovereign republic, that each one has joined together, and has sworn a oath always to uphold and abide by our U.S. Constitution, before ever being admitted to form these United States of America; and the liberty that we now enjoy as a people was not given to us; but rather it came at a great cost in blood, sweat, hardship, and tears.

So let us not be so easily taken and gullible; and let us not give up on and relinquish what so many have given so much to preserve, in our liberty as a free people.

We must remember: “When it comes to PEOPLE, we should be tolerant; but when it comes to IDEAS, we MUST be critical!”

Lest we make the mistake of having to repeat a history we do not want for our children!

The Obama Deception… the movie the Global Elitists don’t want you to watch!!

The Movie and Information the Global Elitists DO NOT want you not to watch!



Question: are we still a free nation, and do we still have First Amendment Rights?

Answer, not for long, not if certain people within government have their way.

Have a look at this movie while you still can, as there are ongoing efforts now to have it removed from the internet!

This video contains information that elements within our government, from the highest levels, and I mean from within the White House, from people who are actively trying to subvert our U.S. Constitution and rob the American people of our liberties, are trying to censor; and they do not want you to see it!

President John F. Kennedy warned us that Secret Societies would be the death of our freedom:

Here are just some of the secret societies which we ALL have heard of, who are pulling the strings of our politicians and also the media today, who are actively seeking to permanently destroy our U.S. Constitution and rob the American people of all our liberties:

Support The Restore American Plan!!!


http://americandreampreservation.com/

If you agree, that our country is worth fighting for and standing up for, then please pass this information along!

It is important how our enemies perceive us… and with this administration that perception is not good!

Pay attention United States, and let us learn from history!!!

God’s promise to Father Abraham was…

“I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who curse you!”


I have spoken before of how our enemies view weakness in this current Obama administration; and whether it is by shear ignorance, or by intention, our failure to understand our enemy’s mindset, and how they view reality puts our nation at risk, and gives our enemies the wrong message.

Here’s a case in point, below is an article that was first published back on June 1st, by DebkaFile, which quotes the chief of the Mossad (Israel’s external security service), as he spoke of the weaken perception the U.S. and Israel now has with our avowed enemies, among the Islamic terrorist organizations and countries; and more specifically Syria and Iran, based upon their perception of this weakened Obama Administration, and its lack of backbone and resolve when it comes to taking a stand against Islamic Terrorism… even to the point today that they don’t even want to acknowledge the word Islam and Terrorism together in the same sentence.

It is called denial folks, and it is not the posture any nation wants to assume when they are at war.

In fact it is the exact posture that was once taken in the late 30’s by the former and infamous Prime Minster of Great Britain, Neville Chamberlain; where in spite of his efforts to avoid war, and to reach a diplomatic agreement with Hitler, he only ended up insuring the inevitability of war; and the same will be true of our nation as well, under Obama, unless there are some serious changes that are made in our present course, and soon.

The core of our problems, here in the U.S., I repeat, are spiritually oriented; in that we have strayed far from our spiritual moorings and landmarks that were once established by our founding fathers; landmarks that were based upon their reverence and fear of God and of His Word.

Our instability as a nation runs right to our very foundation; as we today are seeking to rebuild our nation, not only on a system that has proven itself to be a failure wherever it has been tried before in history, which is a Socialist based system and economy; but we are also building upon a the political corruption and lies of dishonest and corrupt politicians… whose agendas are kept hidden from view; and are very different from most of the American public!

Our situation is critical, and until such time as we have a spiritual change in our country, which I believe must happen at a grassroots level, that will once again bring focus back upon Truth; and upon a biblical perception and basis of how we view Truth, and the difference between what’s right and wrong; then I don’t see that there is any hope nor chance of any improvement within our government, and the current direction our country is taking.

That is the state of our Union as I see it; and it brings front and center the importance and absolute necessity of our having not only a grassroots revival; but also the importance of our having a reestablishment of our Constitutional Republic, as it was originally designed by our founding fathers to be.

Unless We the People take the initiative and are willing to take back our government from it’s current corrupt and dishonest leadership, with their hidden agendas, then the only possible option that we can have is for us to remain on our present course; which will eventually mean a complete loss of all our liberties and rights, as guaranteed by our U.S. Constitution; and ultimately the establishment of dictatorial ruler.

The handwriting is already on the wall, and the history is plain, that we here in America are exactly where pre-Nazi Germany once was; and we are making exactly the same mistakes, by keeping our collective heads in the sand, and by our keeping quite.

Prayer I think is very definitely order… how about you, what’s your opinion on all of this?  I’d like to know?

Need I remind you that the Revolutionary War, and our winning our Independence from Mother England did not happen by the American people remaining quite and passive; and by them accepting the status quo; but rather it came by their direct opposition and absolute refusal to be enslaved by their government! Even as Thomas Pain once said: “Give me liberty or give me death!”

Shalom,

Skip Barland

Mossad chief: Obama’s perceived military “softness” weakens Israel

DEBKAfile
Special Report
June 1, 2010, 7:16 PM (GMT+02:00)

Tags:  Mossad Director   US-Israel 

In a rare public expression of concern, Meir Dagan, head of Israel’s Mossad external security service, warned Tuesday, June 1, that the progressive decline of American strength over the past decade and the perception of the Obama administration as “soft on military options for solving disputes” have cut deep into Israel’s military and diplomatic maneuverability and made it fair game for its enemies.

This is reported by debkafile’s intelligence and political sources.
Dagan presented the Knesset foreign affairs and security committee with this evaluation 24 hours after Israeli Navy boarding parties prevented vessels sailing the Mediterranean from achieving their object of breaking the Gaza blockade.

As the UN Security Council’s condemned the loss of life in that raid, the Mossad chief said Barack Obama’s first year as president was a period of “devaluation” for “Israeli and American strategic assets.”

Dagan’s uncharacteristic bluntness was a measure of the anxiety gripping Israel’s security leaders over the slump in US-Israel relations.

He timed his cutting observations for the day Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was to have held talks in White House with President Obama.

Although that meeting was cancelled and Netanyahu cut short his trip to return home and deal with the crisis over the flotilla incident, the Mossad Director decided that what he had to say was important enough to be said and aired without delay.

The Obama-Netanyahu meeting had been scheduled as a high point in President Obama’s charm offensive for mending his ties with Israel and American Jewish leaders, Dagan noted.

By speaking out now, he hoped they would be warned not to be taken in by Obama’s smiles and understand that his attitude toward the Israeli government had not changed in any fundamental way.


America’s ability to generate situation-changing measures in any part of the world was in decline and this weakness reflects directly and negatively on Israel’s strategic situation.

Debkafile notes that by this remark, Dagan indirectly disputed the administration’s National Security Strategy report published in Washington five days ago.

This comment also placed him in the middle of the internal political debate in Israel. Whereas opposition factions maintain the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians and other neighbours is stalled by Netanyahu’s allegedly hard-line positions, the Mossad chief puts it in a different perspective: Whatever the prime minister may do and whichever policy he may pursue, in Dagan’s view he is stuck with the endemic weakness stemming from American weakness and the Obama administration’s waning support for Israel.

He warned the lawmakers that the current US administration is in the process of making of Israel “a liability instead of an asset.” The US president, said the Mossad chief, seriously considered forcing Israel to accept a dictated peace formula.

He only backed off when he saw that this tactic would not produce a peace accord. But that was “only a tactical retreat,” said Dagan.

“Let’s see what steps the Americans take in the future, especially after the midterm congressional elections in November,” he said, because, while an imposed peace is only a last resort and not (the Obama administration’s) preferred option, it is still on the table and a whip he is holding over the heads of both parties.

The Mossad chief concluded by saying: “Such events (a decision to resort to an imposed peace) could career out of control and lead (US-Israel relations) into extreme situations.”

Where the trust was broken with this Obama administration… it started the moment he entered into politics!!!

Let us be very careful who it is that we are following and who is setting the course for our nation, and for our children’s future!

This includes all that is being implemented now, and the changes that this man is making to our government, all of which flies in the face of our U.S. Constitution, and so therefore is illegal!!!

In the article below, WorldNetDaily talks about a trail of deciet and illegal activity in this Obama administration, that began long ago.

So what were the first signs of trouble when we look at the history of this man, Barack Hussein Obama, the first “Black” president that we have had here in the United States?

The first point that I’d like to make is that he is not even who he says he is, in so many different ways; but let’s begin with even his ethnicity.

According to what we know of Barack Hussein Obama’s background, at least ethnically, he is: 50% white, 6.25% African, and 63.75% Arabic and Muslim… at least that was the heritage, bloodline, and ideological faith of his father; and from all the available evidence it is also that of his son!

This trail of deceit all started long ago, in Barack Obama’s college years, when he was first being groomed for the office that he now holds; and as we look at the path that he took back then, and the people whom he looked up to as his mentors, it then becomes very obvious where and why the breakdown in trust had to happen.

Unfortunately we are living in a society today, and in a culture, where at least for most people, the perceived perception of reality and truth is shaped, not by any biblical sense of right and wrong, good or evil, as it was with our founding fathers; but rather for a good many people today their moral sense of what is right or wrong is determined by something called “Moral Relativism,” and “Situational Ethics.”

Whereas it was once the purview of Church and the Bible to shape the culture and values of our nation; today it is the media that does this… and therein is our problem, as a nation!

Today the morals and opinions for many in our society are being shaped by the talking heads we see in the media, and also among the so called Hollywood elite, of those who are considered as ‘Media Icons;’ it is their opinions and directions that are being sought after, that so many Americans today are looking to for their direction.

It is to people like Oprah Winfrey and others, who because they have been given a platform to speak from, in the media, that so many are following what she says in order to determine their own value system.

This whole process was made very obvious in Obama’s rise to power, and how he came to be elected as President; and how even in spite of all the obvious evidence and contradictions that he was not who he claimed himself to be, all of which has plagued this man his whole career; and all of which were clear indications and warnings that truly he was not suited, neither morally, ethically, nor experientially, for the job that he was seeking; and that even by his own admission once, when he was still in the U.S. Senate; and yet nevertheless, in spite of all of that, it was the power of the media behind the man that won him the White House.

It was obvious right from the very beginning that this whole campaign was all about the media hype that was put behind the man, where the public was conditioned right from the get go to look NOT at the facts, nor even to believe what they were seeing and hearing; but they were conditioned by the media to believe instead only what the media was telling them to believe… and it worked!

Consider the following if you will:

    10. The Communist Party USA Endorsed Obama:

    “Our Party actively supported Obama during the primary election.”
    http://www.cpusa.org/article/articleview/858/1/39/

    (This line has since been removed from the CPUSA website)

    11. Obama’s church is rooted in black liberation theology, liberation theology is rooted in Marxism.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUdjhKbImwE
    (about half way through covers this)

    12. The band that opened for Obama’s Oregon rally (The Decemberists) is named after an 1825 revolt over the Imperial Russian succession (Decembrist revolt) that Meloy views as an attempted communist revolution. They also open many of their shows by playing the Soviet National Anthem…
    http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/communists-for-obama/

    13. Michelle Obama’s Marxist Thoughts…
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMLeamM7Jkk

Yet did any of these facts in anyway discourage any of his popularity? No, it didn’t.

I mean really, does anybody really doubt this; that this man Obama is a product of the Media hype behind him?

Truly though, Obama is really no different than any one of us, in that the man has been shaped by his past experience, and he is today the product of that experience… all of which has shaped his character, and who he is as a man.

He is also no different than any of us, in that to the extent he is only doing what seems right in his own eyes, he is just as lost as any man, who has yet to have an encounter with Jesus Christ.

It is just as President, and as the elected leader of our nation, we are unequally yoked; and are being stirred in a direction that is taking our nation further away from God!

For truly we have a situation today, in America, that the Bible warns against; that happens when you have a blind leader, who is also a leader of a blind people, that if that course remains unaltered, this man will lead our whole nation into the ditch, and into ruin.

Our only hope is in Jesus Christ; and in the power of prayer.

Pray for the man, sure… pray for God to either change his heart and save his soul; or that He removes him from office, for the sake of our nation and our future; but at all cost, please do continue to pray… to watch and pray!!!

Shalom,

Skip Barland

Ex-prosecutor charges foreign dealings

WorldNetDaily

Sen. Barack Obama with Raila Odinga

In a new best-selling book connecting Islam and Obama-style socialism, a former top terrorism prosecutor chides the national media for failing to investigate Barack Obama’s “borderline criminal” activities in Kenya as a U.S. senator.

Andrew C. McCarthy, the former U.S. attorney who investigated the American embassy bombing in Nairobi, Kenya, charges that Obama interfered in Kenya’s internal politics possibly in violation of the Logan Act.

The centuries-old law bars Americans who are “without authority of the United States” from conducting relations “with any foreign government … in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States.”

In “The Grand Jihad: How Islam and the Left Sabotage America,” McCarthy says Obama undermined U.S. relations with a strong anti-terrorism ally in an African region where al-Qaida operates. In 2006, he details in the book how Obama campaigned for a pro-communist candidate running against Nairobi’s pro-American government – “in outrageous contravention of U.S. policy and, probably, federal law.”

Obama spent six days barnstorming the Kenyan countryside in support of Raila Odinga, the socialist Luo who was seeking the presidency. Appearing with Odinga at campaign stops, Obama gave speeches accusing the sitting Kenyan president of being corrupt and oppressive, leaving the masses in poverty.

Obama’s interference “was more than reckless,” McCarthy writes. “It was borderline criminal (and that’s being generous).”

Earlier, Odinga had visited Obama in the U.S. – in 2004, 2005 and 2006 – and Obama had sent an adviser, Mark Lippert, to Kenya in early 2006 to plan a trip by the senator timed to coincide with Odinga’s campaign.

McCarthy notes that Obama and Odinga, who named one of his children after Fidel Castro, are “leftist soulmates” whose families go way back. Their fathers belonged to the same Luo tribe – and both Barack Hussein Obama Sr. and the elder Oginga Odinga worked inside the Kenyan government as communist agitators.

There is also an Islamist connection.

On Aug. 29, 2007, Raila Odinga signed a secret Memorandum of Understanding with Sheikh Abdullahi Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum of Kenya. In exchange for Muslim support, Odinga agreed, among other things, to:

  • Rewrite the national constitution to install shariah as the law in all “Muslim declared regions.”
  • Elevate Islam as “the only true religion” and give Islamic leaders an “oversight role to monitor activities of ALL other religions.”
  • Establish shariah courts in every Kenyan divisional headquarters.
  • Ban Christian proselytism.
  • Fire the police commissioner for “allow[ing] himself to be used by heathens and Zionists” to oppress Muslims.
  • Adopt Islamic dress codes for women.
  • Ban alcohol and pork.

Even with strong Muslim backing, Odinga (who does business with a wealthy Saudi donor to Osama bin Laden) was defeated in the December 2007 election. But he accused the incumbent president of rigging the vote and incited his supporters to riot in protest.

Over the next month, some 1,500 Kenyans were killed and more than 500,000 displaced – with most of the violence led by Muslims, who set churches ablaze and hacked Christians to death with machetes.

All the while, Odinga was in regular communications with Obama, who publicly called for an end to the violence.

“Odinga’s strategy, the extortion strategy of Islamist intimidation, worked to a fare-thee-well,” McCarthy notes in his book. To appease his angry mob of supporters, he was named prime minister and allowed to share power with the president.

“With Obama’s helping hand, leftists and Islamists had combined forces to overwhelm a constitutional democracy,” McCarthy says, while decrying the national media’s “stubborn disinterest” in the “stunning” chain of events.

The same alliance can be seen in the U.S., he says, as the Obama administration reaches out to the radical Muslim Brotherhood, which according to the FBI, has a plan to infiltrate and sabotage the U.S. from within. Obama and other Alinsky “revolutionaries” are carrying out a similar plan, he maintains.

McCarthy says that while there’s no evidence Obama is a practicing Muslim, he shares Muslim Brotherhood hatred for America and “the Muslim Brotherhood’s sabotage strategy.”

McCarthy says the administration ignores incontrovertible evidence tying Muslim Brotherhood front groups in America to Hamas and other terrorist groups. One of them, he notes, is the Council on American-Islamic Relations, which claims to be a benign civil-rights organization.

But he says the recent Holy Land Foundation trial – “and the eye-popping publication of ‘Muslim Mafia'” – have exposed CAIR “as a farce.” Quoting from “Muslim Mafia” – which he adds is an “important book” – the former top terrorism prosecutor further litigates the case against CAIR’s “Hamas-tainted leaders.”

In another bombshell, McCarthy reveals that he was dropped from the White House Christmas card list following his criticism of the Bush administration’s purging of the words “jihad” and “Islamic terrorism” from the official military and homeland security lexicon.

Like President Bush before him, he says President Obama fails to grasp that Islam is not a “religion of peace” but “a huge part of the problem in combating ‘violent extremism,'” which is the new euphemism for Islamic terrorism.

“To be sure, the same ground was staked out by his predecessor, President Bush,” McCarthy argues. “They are (both) wrong.”

“The need to deal with Islam is unavoidable,” he adds, “not because it’s an asset, but because it’s a liability that can’t be written off.”

AS TRAVELERS IN TIME… WE ARE EACH PILGRIMS ON LIFE’S PATHWAY!

A few sparks from the anvil on our journey through life!

We are all travelers in time, who have been placed here on earth with one ultimate destination and goal.

Paul described it as a race that had but one prize at the end; and he said we must each discipline ourselves in order that we may win this prize.

Normally in a race the prize goes to the one who crosses the finish line first; but not so in this race.

For those who would win this race, all that is necessary is that we not quit; and that we stay in faith.

Jesus once gave a parable of the Workers in the Vineyard:

Matt 20:1-16

“For the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who was the master of a household, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. He went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace. To them he said, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went their way.

Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise. About the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle. He said to them, ‘Why do you stand here all day idle?’ “They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ “He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.’

When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.’ “When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius.

When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius.

When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household, saying, ‘These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat!’

“But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me for a denarius? Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you.

Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’ So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”

In this parable the ones hired at the beginning of the day were promised one denarius as pay for the days labor; and each successive hiree throughout the day agreed to whatever would be fair, showing a trust in the one who hired them, that he would be fair; but at the end of the day, those who were hired early, who had worked through the heat of the day, were not happy with their agreed upon pay, or should I say their “prize?”

What they failed to understand was that their reward, their prize as it were, was not in earthly mammon, in what the world seeks as valuable; but their reward was in the person of Jesus Christ!

As it is, every person’s journey begins the moment they are born into this world; and every person has been given an equal opportunity to reach their goal and obtain their prize; however we each have been given different paths to follow; and every path has been specifically choreographed by the Master for each one of His children, and is specifically designed for their individual personality and needs.

The Bible even tells us that every detail, everyday spent on this path, has been scheduled for us, and has been written in a book; a book with our name on it:

Psalm 139:16-15

16 You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.

17 How precious are your thoughts about me,[b] O God.
They cannot be numbered!

18 I can’t even count them;  they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up,  you are still with me!

Our achieving our destiny and whether or not we are successful at obtaining our goal at the end of our journey, will depend on our determination and our resolve that we shall not quit, nor give up in our ultimate pursuit; and it will require that we will each remain faithful to follow God’s instruction manual and road map for our trip.

Also, and this is most important, we must each learn the absolute necessity, while on our path, that we learn to discern and to obey both the leading and the voice of the Holy Spirit.

Though we each are given a different path to follow, with different circumstances, trials and challenges along the way, nevertheless we each have but one prize to be won at the end of our journey; and there is ONLY but one way for us to obtain our prize.

What is this ‘Prize’ that we all are each destined to strive towards; that the Apostle Paul said that we must discipline ourselves in order to win, or to achieve?

The Prize is Jesus Christ; and for instructions and a road map on how we are to win our destiny, God has given us His Word (the Holy Bible); but many there be that have chosen their own path, and have not even considered God’s directions, and for them the Bible says that their journey shall end in eternal separation from their Creator… or what the Bible calls death!

Won’t you come and join in the adventure?

May we each begin our day today with a renewed focus on our destiny and our ultimate prize; and most importantly may we each remember that the only thing necessary for us to win this race is that we not quit; that we keep our focus on the our Prize, Jesus Christ; and that we remain in faith! Selah

What is it that sets The United States of America apart from ALL other forms of government in history?

We are One Nation Under God!

There are two things that set the United States apart from ALL other nations and empires throughout history:

1) It is that our nation was founded by Christians (the Pilgrims, in 1620), who made a covenant with God in something we call the Mayflower Compact, to propagate the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ in this new land; and

2) Our nation was also formed and our U.S. Constitution was designed, structured, and written during the Great Awakening Revival (between 1730-1760) around the Holy Bible!!!

So then, what is it exactly that sets our country apart from ALL other countries in the world today?

My thanks go out to Pat today, for forwarding this series of videos to me.

I think it is well past time that we set the record straight; and speak the truth!

Here we have a president, whose own citizenship is very questionable, and for whatever reason he has refused since day one to provide adequate proof of his citizenship; and yet this man starts out by going on a worldwide tour to apologize to the world for America.

So were does this guy get off speaking for us, or apologizing about anything for us?

I would say that in spite of our failures and problems, because we aren’t perfect and yes we still have lots of problems, but this world has truly been blessed through our country, and that is true for many reasons; and the above video I think just points out a few of those reasons.

I am proud of my country, and I’m proud of the fact that my family patriarch, William Barland, came here over 200 years ago, and was here to celebrate our first Independence Day; and I am equally proud and thankful to have been born here, and to be able to call myself an American citizen.

What I am not proud of and that which I find very offensive is any administration (be it Republican or Democrat) who would seek to undermine and disassemble our U.S. Constitution, and thereby betray all that our country has stood for, in favor of a so called “New World Order!”

I would suggest that all of you who agree with me, and who are citizens of this fine country, that you speak up; and let your voices be heard, that is if you agree with me and want to see our republic restored; and our country and our liberty as a people preserved.

I would also suggest that for all of us who are Christians, that we begin to thank God for our long Christian heritage, and that we not take what has been given for granted; and I would suggest also that we ALL begin to pray for this great country as though our future and that of our children depended upon it!

Shalom,

HOW TO READ THE FACE OF SOMEONE WITH HIDDENED AGENDAS… so tell the truth now, how far do you trust Obama?

They have told us from the very beginning, just trust us…

Well, how do you like it so far; and worse, if you were America’s

enemies, would you really fear these three people?

Listen to the man before he was elected to office:




Now listen to the man after he was elected:




Our country is perceived as weak today by our enemies; and that is because of the man at the top.

More specifically I’m talking about this Obama administration, and all those others within our government structure who have betrayed both their oath of office, and our U.S. Constitution.

We aren’t fooling anyone folks; and more specifically our enemies in the world, among the radical Islamic groups/countries, totally believe we are without resolve to do anything of substance to stand in their way to do whatever they please.

I mean why should they feel any other way? After all, they even have the media and most of Congress on their side, for different reasons of course, and with a very different agenda; but nevertheless, make no mistake but that the power structure today, as it exists today in Washington DC is working against both the welfare and what’s best for our country; after having long ago sold us out to other interests… all of which by the way have a dollar signs in front!!!

The only people who apparently are the only ones who are fooled in all of this, who can’t or who won’t see the truth, are the American people; and we are the ONLY ones who are in position to put a stop to this.

If we don’t know this, then we need to learn it, and quick, that NO country can long last whose foundation is built on lies, and unless we have people who will begin to speak the truth, and call things as they truly are, then our situation can only get worse!

Please pray for change folks, pray for a spiritual awakening and revival for America, starting at a grassroots level; or as I’ve said numerous times before, we are not going to make it!

Subject: Former Iranian Revolutionary Guard Member Reveals Iran’s Plans for Israel


Former Iranian Revolutionary Guard Member
Reveals Iran’s Plans for Israel

Dear Skip,

Not long after the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979 a young member of the Revolutionary Guard, disgusted by what he saw from the mullahs who were running the country, contacted the CIA and offered to work as a double agent. For years “Wally” was one of the best sources of intelligence for America about what was happening in the radical Islamic regime.

In a speech this month at the Institute for Near East Policy in Washington, “Wally” described an Iran that is very different from what is normally portrayed by our political and diplomatic elites.

Protected by a bodyguard, wearing a disguise, and using a voice modulator to protect his identity, “Wally” described the dangerous reality in no uncertain terms.

“Stop dreaming, please,” he said. “You are not dealing with rational people. Every time you extend a hand, it is not seen as sincerity, but stupidity.”

He predicted that Iran will eventually attack Israel, Europe and the Gulf and advocated a preemptive military strike against the regime but not against the Iranian people or infrastructure.

“Wally” accused the Obama administration of naiveté and betrayal for seeking to engage Iran. Not only does the regime see this as weakness on the part of the United States, he said, but the Iranian people view it as a betrayal of the highest order as they fight for freedom.

There is no doubt listening to his inside information that Israel is in great and imminent danger.

I am writing you today because you are a friend of Israel and I know you agree with me that we must support Israel at this crisis moment. Will you send your support to the Jewish people so that they know they are not alone? Will you stand for Israel in their moment of crisis and great need?

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Michael Evans

Faith requires us to broaden the limited boundaries of our imagination in order that we may see the unseen…

God’s Word ALONE is a lamp unto our feet!!!

Faith always involves our taking instructions and doing as our Operations Manual (the Bible) tells us to do; and Jesus even said that both He and the Father would gage our love for them by how well we do this!

Let us learn from the Parable of the Wise Builder (1 of 3)

(2 of 3)


(3 of 3)


Faith sees and speaks of things that are not, as though they were!

Faith involves our broadening the vistas and boundaries of our natural mental capacities, which is the realm of our imagination, and our being able to see things there that are not yet visible to our natural eye!

For truly, as we look at the definition of FAITH, as it is defined in the Bible, we learn that it is the substance of things hoped for; and the evidence of things that are not yet visible nor felt in the natural.

The question is, how else can we get there and see those things that are not as though they are except by way of a sanctified imagination?

As Jesus said: “All things are possible if ONLY you can believe!”

There are therefore things in life that we have to believe first, before we can see them; for when we see from our heart, through eyes of faith and love, we open ourselves up to a world that lies beyond our five senses!

Join in on the adventure… won’t you? Let go and let God!!! Selah

In order for us as Children of the Most High, of those who are created in His likeness and after His image, in order for us to break through our natural resistance coefficient, which is this sin ridden and fallen world that we live in, and in order for us to be able to tap into the supernatural realm of which we so readily can read about in the Bible, it is out of necessity that we must start exercising both our faith and our sanctified imitation.

In Proverbs 28:18 we read: “Where there is no vision, the people perish.“


In this verse of scripture, the word “vision” has to do with the Word of God, which is the only legal means for us to gain both glimpses and access into the Supernatural realm; and God is also telling us here that where there is no “vision” into God’s supernatural Word, there can be no message of life, and the people perish because of it.

Even Albert Einstein realized this secret, when he said:

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales.

If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”
~ Albert Einstein

In the Bible we are called the “Sons of God,” and it even says that the angels in heaven bend over in awe and amazement, and we are told also in Romans 8:19 that even nature itself longs in earnest expectation as it awaits to see the manifestation in the earth of the Son’s of God! What do you suppose this means?

I happen to be a “Trekkie” fan, and as such, I’m one of those people who enjoy watching science fiction and the high definition graphics and realism that are provided us in our modern day technology, that brings realism to the silver screen; but I also maintain that we ALL are wired that way, and that we have been since birth!

In fact here is one of my favorite lines from another movie, which I actually believe contains more truth than fiction, in what it conveys. Go ahead and take a listen, click here and listen to what Morpheus is saying to Neo about the world that remains hidden from our eyes!

In fact, whether we realize it or not; we are born for the supernatural; even to the extent the supernatural should actually become natural to us, even as it is to God, who is our heavenly Father and our Creator; and even as we can see it was for Jesus… of whom we are told in Scripture (in John 21:15) that He (Jesus) performed so many miracles that there wouldn’t be room enough in all the books in the world (at least in Paul’s day anyway) to tell of them all.

Here’s my point, folks, when our faith is based upon God’s Word and the promises of God’s Word that is what gives both substance and validity to our faith; which in turn gives substance to our hopes; and therein lies the difference between FAITH and PRESUMPTION!

The term “presumption,” which most people in the world operate in today, means to take or do something, or to perform some act, without the proper leave nor allowance to do so… and this is definitely NOT what faith is!

To follow this path will lead you ultimately into error and into false religious cults; and it can also lead into occult activity; but then again the “Occult” is also nothing more than a perversion of the “Truth;” and by that I mean behind the lies that Satan tells there is always a thread that leads to some truth or some history, that Satan has corrupted and hidden from our view, in an effort to discredit it; and thereby to try and keep it from God’s children.

I maintain, as I’ve even heard Kim Clement say, that it should not be the Psychic’s that are out rendering aid to law enforcement agencies, to aid them in their work; and folks you should know also that the only reason why these agencies will allow these sorts of activities, and will sometimes seek it out, is because there is both verifiable power and accuracy there; and these people have often in the past been able to provide supernatural help in solving certain cases; howbeit, its power source is derived from outside of God’s permission, and therefore it is a counterfeit.

But can we not see all throughout the Old Testament, where it was the Prophets of God who heard the secret plans of Israel’s enemies, plans that were made in their bed chambers; and did his prophets not reveal these plans to the leadership of Israel in advance, in order to aid Israel in their battles?

We can know from this that there is a REAL antithesis to that counterfeit gift, that we find in the world, that is truly available through the POWER of the Holy Spirit, to ALL those who are God’s offspring, who are the Sons of God in the earth. Selah

Oh yeah, here’s one last point, that I shall leave with you as a caution and also a warning, as to what the Apostle Paul said in Scripture (see 2 Timothy 3:5), would be one of the main signs that we are living in the Last Days, that will usher in the return of our Lord, Messiah Yeshua, to earth; in that He said “That men would be very religious and have a belief in God; but that they would deny the POWER (meaning the Holy Spirit).”

Shalom,

Skip Barland
