Stillness inside to outside. The wind is whipping up cultural chaos in this life season we find ourselves thrust in. Stillness inside is what we need. Our soul still before God, and yielded to Him. Our spirit bowed in that surrender of all things us in this world. We bow our will before the Sovereignty of our God in Awe of Who He is. There is something so beautiful about a soul that has been stilled by God, a spirit that has connected with God, a will that is yielded to God, and a mind that has let be, stilled itself to a place of purely listening up to God. This is when we hear that still small voice inside of us and can be navigated by The Holy Spirit. Yielded: Not my will but Yours. Lord God. Stillness of spirit, soul, mind and will is a beautiful thing. The enemy of our soul bombards us with distraction, disfunction, disparity, disillusionment, discouragement, and creates a whirlwind of chaos and confusion all around us, so that all we see is the “devil “d” craftiness, and our focus is stolen and our stillness is wrecked. We can’t let Him steal our stillness of soul. God is with us, so very Present at all times, we can reach out of the enemies plan for us, and grasp the mighty right hand of Almighty God, and He can pull us up out of a “Devil D” pit into His sweet stillnesss. Yield - Believe - Trust and activate our faith, these are the sweet moments we can connect heart to heart with God, shutting out all the cultural chaos and be embraced by a stillness that saturates our soul, shuts down our mind chaos, and focuses our spirit on Him, as we yield to His way, truth and life. Do you have chaos in your soul? Whatever God asks you to do, lean into it, yield to God what you want to do in reaction to your “Devil D” situation, and look up, connect with God, and wait on Him in sweet stillness. Watch in prayer, wait in hope and see the glory of God. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/the-sound-of-silence/

We are created in God’s Image and designed and destined to be free. Yes, this is us human beings. We were created by our Creator God, shaped with the liberty of a free will. This is what He wanted for us, freedom, liberty and justice for all. It is a paradox that the very free will we were created to have, has been corrupted by our human condition and is now being used by a few, to take away the freedom, liberty and justice of most of us. This evil plan has been put in motion by the enemy of our soul, to use a few to enslave the masses. This is a direct violation of the Sovereign Will of God. These evil engulfed people, are so deceived that they actually think they can defeat the supremacy of God, superseding His plan for the Creation He shaped for freedom, a people with liberty and free will. This is God’s design. 1 IN [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off]. There is nothing about God’s Infinite creation that a finite being can alter forever. Look at the powerful truth of God, how it has endured the test of time, and deception will not win out over it, because God’s truth has over all the years withstood the trials of the foolishness of mankind. Truth still reigns and the unbelief of human beings has not even put a dent in its staying power. Unbelief has no power over God’s truth. With our free will, we choose Christ and in this freedom of God’s Truth, no one can enslave us again. We stand on the side of truth, free in Christ Jesus. Evil will not prevail against Almighty God. God Wins. Period. Our freedom is fragile, because incredibly foolish human beings have underestimated the power of God and they actually, arrogantly think that they can take control of His created people, they foolishly think they can control the population and decrease it, they think they can enslave us all. The can’t. They won’t win. People trying to Lord over other people, they serve no power higher than self, therefore they are blinded to the power of God. They do not know the deliverance, redeeming, resurrected power of God. They do not know truth. They do not know God. God is faithful in all of His ways to His people. God will not allow this evil to alter the plans He has set in motion for His people and His creation. They absolutely can not touch the future God has planned for us. God will say No. And to the evil and those being used by the evil one, Almighty God will say: ENOUGH! God will finish this battle well and His freedom, justice and liberty for all will prevail. Yes, the storm is upon us, but God is in the storm. These evil, self-righteous arrogant and foolishly deceived people have underestimated the power, wisdom, knowledge of our Omnipresent God and His people. God will prevail over the evil of our time. These evil people, trying to steal, kill and destroy us, being used by the father of lies, every evil plan, motive and action that they have done, will come back on them. The boomerang of God will bring with it heavy consequences for their sin. Our freedom has become fragile and limp because they have carried out secreted evil plans. These sin sick people, with absolute power that has corrupted absolutely, they actually think they can take over the whole world. But God has exposed and will continue to bring their evil to the light of His Truth, and He will expunge it, He will deliver us and restore the strength of our freedom once again. We must look to God as these days ahead will become darker as the evil one makes his final stand from the place of defeat. As a wounded animal is at its most dangerous state, these are dangerous times for us. As we yield to God, trusting Him, staying in followship of Him, listening up to Him we will hear that still small voice: This is the way walk in it. We will be navigated and provided for during the battle for our freedom and God will use us by the way of His power, wisdom and might, as we are navigated by Him, our tattered freedom will stand. Evil motives, evil crafty plans will not deny us our God given freedom. We are free indeed in Christ Jesus! Our national flag may be limp, but it will fly freely again and we will once again be One Nation Under God with liberty, freedom and justice for all. We use our free will to position ourselves underneath the Rulership of God’s Love. We ask for forgiveness of our sins, our wicked ways and we pray to our Father God for deliverance and restoration, placing our hope in Him. Therefore, there is no evil formed against God’s children that will prosper. Give your heart to Jesus Christ, be a part of of the family of God and stay in followship of His way, truth and life. Everything we know and have known to be normal to us will come crashing down in these times, but God’s loyalty to us, His love for us and His truth will remain. God will make all things new for us. God is for us. God Wins. Justice has been hijacked by evil and, we trust God to restore the liberty of true justice, we wait for it, we patiently endure in belief of our God, knowing His Sovereignty will stand, knowing He is working in the unseen and knowing His endgame is for our good. The restoration of freedom is God’s battle, and those who have rejected the grace and mercy God has been extending them in times such as these, they will suffer without the hope, peace and protection of God. He has been long suffering with this present evil generation, but He will no longer be so. He will restore liberty and justice for all and all those who stand on the side of evil will lose. We, Christians, the family of God, firmly stand on the side of truth, wavering not. We know without a doubt, the full counsel of the Word of God, the truth of Jesus Christ, makes us free indeed. We will not be enslaved to a yoke of worldly bondage, to a corrupted finite supremacy, and will yield ourselves, wholly-holy entrusting ourselves to our faithful, trustworthy, always present and powerful God. It is to the supremacy of Jesus, we bow our knee to in reverence, honor and belief of His way, truth and life. There is no other god before Him, He is Supreme and no human being can travail against His Sovereign Will for His people, bought by His precious blood for us. We are adopted children of God. As His children, we belong to no one else, we are not enslaved to anyone, or in bondage to anything, as freedom is our God given right. In Christ we stand, on the solid rock of His Word we are secure in our future. Man’s will can not prevail against the Sovereign Will of God. Trust God, and give God the room He needs to work. No Fear! It is always darkest before the dawn. God is at work in the unseen and He will deliver us from evil. We will be free, just as He designed us to be. We have a future and hope no deplorable human being can alter. Let God Work. He will restore 100 percent the liberty, freedom, and justice that has been stolen from us. Watch in prayer, wait in followship and see the glory of God.

Knowledge, Wisdom, Kindness, Goodness, Discernment, Truth, Love… all these wonderful things deep within our inner spiritual core. Christ’s Holy Spirit in us, the hope of glory, He is functioning within us, leading us from within to respond godly without. When we react, flying into an emotional rage, nothing good happens. When we respond to God, when those suddenly things happen, we have His grace, kindness, truth and unconditional love inside of us, from within to without it goes. This is how God leads us out of human reaction to Holy Spirit Led response that is godly and heals, restores and revives. Reaction, kills, steals and destroys, it is from the enemy of our soul. Response, being Holy Spirit led, is abundant in love, truth, kindness and enhances value in our relationships. “We have strong feelings, often driven by compelling circumstances. Yet all is worsened by giving our emotions free reign.” Robert J. Morgan What happens when someone is trying to control you with their emotions of anger? How do you handle it? It is either react or respond. Our emotions are like a speed boat flying into an inlet full of currents, so beware when you let those emotions fly, something can go really wrong as we foolishly speed head on into into an inlet of jumbled up currents. The Holy Spirit is in our heart and when we respond to God first, drawing on the strength of God in us, we can have grace, goodness, and unconditional love. Where there is no grace given, there is no true God relationship found, it is all about religion, self-righteousness and religious doings. Being found in God, living through His strength, makes all things possible, and we can respond godly even if the current of the day is anger, bitterness, and mean-spirited banter. When someone has narcissistic behavior and is trying to control us with emotional meanness, saying mean things, doing spiteful-retaliatory things, it feels impossible to respond godly. Sometimes we just “flesh out” in finite reaction. But with God, His Holy Spirit in us, we can respond godly by His strength, through His wisdom and discernment. Kindness and grace are lacking when self-righteousness, condemnation, and religiosity quench it. Sometimes we don’t lead with God’s grace, and we put condemnation on people by conditional judgements about assumed behavior, being critical about things that we are not even living up too, by punishing them emotionally, by placing conditions on them, and by ghosting them out of your life. When this kind of human reaction happens, what spirit are we working out of, it is not the Holy Spirit of God, so who is it then? Who is leading us? When we are saved, yielding our lives to Jesus Christ, we get an amazing gift deposited deep within our inner spiritual core, it is God’s Holy Spirit. We can be navigated by His Spirit, at all times, no matter what. When we “react” with negative emotions, this will always be out of the human condition, it is a finite reaction and does not end well. A godly response is by the strength and power of the Holy Spirit, and it is always truth in love, and grace by way of mercy, and this response is not willed by us, but navigated by the power of the Holy Spirit of God in us. We are trusting God, not trying to fix things, but putting our faith in the Fixer, Jesus Christ, and allowing His Holy Spirit to work through us with truth and love. We can’t save people, Jesus is the Savior. Be silent, Be calm, Be still and stay confident in God, giving God time to work.

There is a lot of anxiety in our cultural chaos and it is contagious as we hear people express how they are feeling in times such as these. The best cure for anxiety is declaring your love and praise for the only One Who can dispel anxiety, shattering the soul darkness of it... and that is Jesus Christ. Oh, what a love He gifts us with. If you are feeling that overwhelming anxiety that arises from panic from your worldly viewpoint, you can know peace again as you express the love in your heart for God. You have a Kingdom Perspective, God's precious Words, of how much He loves us (John 3:16) So, speak it out, how much you love God and shatter the darkness of anxiety with your declaration of love for Jesus Christ, our Savior, Redeemer, Deliverer, the ONE we can truly trust in anxious times. There is so much I love about You, Lord God. I mostly love You are true, that there is nothing deceptive about You. You say what you mean, You mean what you say. Who do you love? What or Who do you worship? I am here today to tell us that Jesus, the One Who loves us most, laid down His life for us, died a horrific and painful death, so we could be free, forever. Jesus defeated death for us, now we have eternal life. There is so much about Jesus that I love. He is faithful, loyal, true, and He is mighty to save, a deliverer, a winner in all things. He has never lost. What is best about Him is His love. He loves us unconditionally, He never treated us like slaves, He gave us a free will, hoping we would chose Him. I love that about Him. He is so confident in Who He is, what He is about, that He gives us the option to chose Him, because He knows we will. There is no greater love, no one has loved us better than our God. I love that I am free to grow in Christ Jesus, to experience life with Him, to grow through in that way only He can empower. I worship Jesus, in a wholly-holy way, because He loves me this way first. He is the fullness of truth, there is no evil in Him, no deception. You can believe what He says, what He promised you will happen. He will always be with us, He will never turn on us, be disloyal to us or leave us in our sinful, deplorable human nature. Jesus made a way for us, a way of truth and life and this is love like no other. I love you Lord Jesus, with my life! AweGOD! I hope you all consider to do the same, choose Jesus, it will be the best choice you ever made on this side of heaven and it will bring you to the heart of God, to a love so sure, so steady, so true, you will never experience anything like it. That is why I know without a doubt, I am loved by God completely and it is a love that I reciprocate in worship of Him with my life, wholly-holy so. Jump in to a love greater than this life and say with a pure heart: I Love You Lord.

With all the cultural chaos of our time, this life season can truly have some crooked path’s to maneuver. It is really stormy culturally so, and we may be fogged in by the injustices that are going on, so much so that it is hard to find our way, to safely maneuver the choices that need to be made so we can move forward without tripping and falling. God has the whole picture, we only see in part, and that part sometimes is so confusing because we don’t always understand God’s ways. It is more than obvious in times such as these, that God’s ways are not our ways. Sometimes we find ourselves on a dangerous pathway, trying to navigate in a fog, during a stormy life season. It may feel impossible to find our way, but we know God is with us and we know of His faithfulness to lead us before, so we wait on His navigation, knowing He will not leave us in this situation, nor will He forsake us. Going by what we see, feel and are experiencing, it can be scary, but living by faith, knowing that God’s Holy Spirit will navigate us, we will find our way, and we will safely grow through this stormy life season, we can trust God no matter what we are feeling, seeing or experiencing. God has not abandoned us, He is working in the unseen for our good. God always wins because He is an excellent finisher! Awe-GOD! You can trust Him!

It is definitely, no doubt about it, easier to focus on the negative right now. Why? Because there is so much of it! Deception is rampant and as people listen up to false narratives time and time again, it becomes a fake reality, a bondage of deception. People are anxious, angry, bitter, mean spirited and it is easy to focus on this kind of thing more than we do the positive that is also happening all around us. God is still at work, creating and maintaining is His thing. There is so much around us that is miraculous, the amazing things of the Lord, the things He is doing. Yes, our world is changing and some of the morality changes make us sick to our stomach. But, we can’t become “Negative Nellies”! God is still here and He is still working on our behalf. There is so much in our world that is still so very beautiful because God is still in control and He has not abdicated His authority to evil. Beauty exists and it exists in Jesus, in His way, truth and life. As we tap into God’s miraculous flow of personal relationship and we listen up to His Word, hearing His Promises, our mood can quickly change from negative to positively great as we recognize the goodness of our God, focusing on His faithfulness and trustworthiness. God is still for us, we have not lost His loyalty and devotion. He loves us! This is our enough, our positive that trumps the negative the enemy of our soul is dishing out. Yes, there is a lot of negative, but their is also positive and we can choose to look past the negative and let our focus rest on God and believe Him that He is working in the unseen for our good. Praise God! He is here, He is in control and our future is in Him. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/false-indictment/ https://rumble.com/vfm7in-gods-promises.html

Our human understanding is not enough. It is full of the deceptors of assumptions, speculations, rationalizations, feelings and opinions not based on the reality of truth, but on what we “think we know”! God knows everything, from knowledge, to experience, to feelings, to motives, to secreted things. God knows it all. If you need understanding, He is the one to go to first. Our ways are not His ways, that is for sure and there are times we can’t even begin to wrap our mind around the things that are occurring in our corrupted cultures. There is just no understanding of it all. Why would God do that? Why would God allow that? There is no understanding of it. When we run off doing our own thing because we can’t understand what God is doing, this is when human mess happens. What we see, feel, hear can be interpreted so wrong when all we have is a worldly viewpoint. God’ understanding is so needed, we should seek after it. God’s understanding is a beautiful thing, it brings us the gift of faith activated by Himself. We need to begin to acknowledge that God is in all of our ways, that He is doing something in the unseen and we don’t have to know the endgame because we know God is faithful, God is for us, God is an amazing finisher, Who finishes well. God is a winner! This is why we can trust God to lead us and navigate us through times such as these, from moment to choice. Faith says we don’t need to know the outcome, we can trust step by step because God is good and He hasn’t changed. God finishes well. Dig Deeper: https://thebridegroomscafe.com/finisher/ Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go. Don’t think for a moment that you know it all, for wisdom comes when you adore him with undivided devotion and avoid everything that’s wrong. Then you will find the healing refreshment your body and spirit long for. Proverbs 3:5-8

What an incredible blessing. We woke up to another day and God is with us, God is for us in this gift of another day. What will you do with this gift? Well, I am thinking that the best thing we can do with this gift of a new day, where God’s mercy is new for us is to receive it, the mercy of God, the love of God, the provision of God. How? Well, probably, for me, it will be, hopefully, that my first step out into this day will be down, bowed in reverence, awe, gratefulness before God. Yes, I am thankful for this new day with all of its God goodness ahead, those great God Adventures of divine appointments that He has for us. But then, there is the other side of the coin, evil intentions of the enemy of our soul, and I don’t underestimate the wiles of the enemy to try to mess up my day with his stupidness. So, while I am down there, in my first step down, in Awe of God, I realize this is a vital-vertical connection I am making with the heart and power of Almighty God. Simply-Significantly, I take this so seriously. This time in my relationship with God is critical and I ask for what I need from God, I asked to be equipped for the day ahead. I usually wake up optimistically, on the good side of the bed as people sometimes ask the opposite: Did you wake up on the bad side of the bed?? But I usually do get up happy and looking forward to time with God. I deeply realize, God has gifted me with much, just in the waking up to a new day, but I know He has immeasurably more for me than I could hope for, imagine or expect. With joyful expectation, and activated faith, I ask to be protected from evil, to be kept from temptation, to make the right choice the first time from every moment to choice I will have in this day gifted me. I ask My Father God to equip me with the wisdom, discernment and knowledge I need to succeed in this day ahead. I ask God to not let me drift away from truth because I live in a life season which is saturated with deception. I pray to make this gifted day all about the Gifter, Jesus Christ, the One Who has given me the ultimate gift of eternal life. This great God adventure today, I want to live it out focused on Jesus, all in with His mission. I hope for it not to be about me, but all about Him and His Kingdom. If I do stumble here and there because of a lengthly focus on my worldly viewpoint, I ask the Holy Spirit to always be there for me, to pick me up, wholly-holy align me with truth and set me apart and on His way, navigated by Him. Because I am flesh, I know the value of this heavenly gift of a new day, I know my days are short in this flesh and I want to do the most I can do with my human condition, in its weakness, so I always ask for the Holy Spirit to infuse my weakness with His strength, and my day seems to be at its peak best when I am saying no to my flesh and yes to God. So I hope for us, that we take this wonderful gift of a day, given to us by God and use it for His glory. God bless ya. Enjoy!

When we have had a storm come in and the waves have been crashing into the shores of the beach, one thing you notice is that there are a lot of broken shells. Makes sense, the power of an angry wave breaks shells. It is like that in our culture, a lot of chaos crashing in on the shores of our nations. We can’t help but be affected by the storm that is upon our nations where morality has taken a nose dive and children are paying the high price of the bad choices of adults. There are a lot of broken people and broken people break people. Brokenness reproduces itself as broken people lash out against the world and the people all around them. We should not despair about the state of our nations, because God is still here, reaching for us. God has not abdicated His power to evil, He is working all things out for the good of His people. Living life in vital-vertical relationship with God is where our wholeness is restored and beautified. There is wholeness for our soul when we live in a relationship with God. God makes broken vessels beautiful. Are you broken? Connect with God today and begin your journey with Him towards wholeness. God makes beautiful broken vessels of light that pierce the night with the power and glory of His life.

It feels like the whole world is a “teeter-totter” right now… Up and down… nothing is stable, everything is shaking. Nothing is as it should be and the “normal” we all used to know… long gone!! It seems like the victory comes, but the enemy is stripping it, reversing it. I guess the Lord is teaching us how to deal with discouragement and how to have a faith that patiently endures? Has that ever happened to you? You won a battle and then it got reversed?? The coolest thought is that the Lord is already the winner. He has won all of it. Jesus won the thing. God will reverse what the enemy has stolen. There is nothing irreversible with God. Nothing! Sometimes our lives get calm, then all of a sudden a big wave comes in and knocks us off of our feet. At that point we need to get up and stand on the Promises of God, pray His Word, and believe that He can and He will reverse what the enemy has done. God loves to do this and He loves to do it in such an abundant way. God always gives us back what has been stolen 100 fold. God’s endgame for us is always good. He finishes so well and usually the enemy of our soul underestimates God and plays their hand way too quick and definitely over plays their hand. That is why we need to patiently endure and wait in belief and trust of God, knowing He’s got the best plan ever for us and He will usher it in when the timing is perfect. He is so good at doing that. So today, if you feel discouraged, if you have felt the enemies backlash on your victory, look up and connect heart to heart with God. God’s gotcha covered! God wins!

Does your nation know the blessing of freedom? Are you free? Are You One Nation Under God With Liberty And Justice For All? Freedom! Human Beings… what a fragile freedom we have because people, with no power higher than self want to steal it. But we STILL have it, our liberty...we were born to be free with the liberty of choice. God choose His Servant Warriors to fight for our God given freedom, because of the sacrifices of those who defended it and still fight for us to be free, we still have freedoms. People, Patriots, Whose Passion It Is To Preserve Freedom, We Are Grateful And Honor Them. And Those Who Died Doing So, We Memorialize Them, Never Taking For Granted These Amazing People And What They Sacrificed For Us. In these times, even having the strongest leaders or military in the world, even this is under attack. There are evil people and leaders trying to usurp the rulership of God and what has ensued is a corrupted system of justice and cultural chaos because they can’t handle supremacy that was meant only for God. God speaks Shalom=disrupting chaos and He speaks Truth=Freedom for all. We have peace and we are free people because of those God has enlisted and called, soldiers of God, who serviced our liberty with the giving of their lives to defend it. The memories of these Godly warriors are the memorial of our freedom, their courageous and strong actions always remembered, and treasured as our freedom, they purchased with their lives, is used in a respectful, honorable, righteous, and civl ways. We have been given more than we can repay and this precious freedom should never be taken for granted. I think about Jesus Christ and all He did for us, so we could live forever free. Jesus, the Son of God, He came here, the King of heaven, took on flesh. (Incarnate) God in the flesh, came to us to defend our freedom of choice with the truth He came to share. We owed a death-debt we could not pay, He paid it with His life. He died so we might forever, freely live. He purchased our freedom from death. We have the freedom to have an opinion, the freedom to fly our countries flag which is the symbol of our liberty, the freedom to go to work, the freedom to learn and grow, the freedom to travel with our family, the freedom to attend church and worship God, the freedom to choose what we do and want to be, the freedom to raise our children, the freedom to make choices for our medical health, and the liberty to live, move, love, serve and be a part of all the things of our community that we choose. We are free. We are free because it is an inalienable God given liberty to all mankind. God gave us a free will. He gave us the freedom of choice. Liberty for all, this is a God given freedom of choice that He does not interfere with. As we connect with God, heart to heart, we know Him, we experience Him and we realize the truth of God, which sets us completely free. Because we got to know God, experience His love and power, we freely choose Him. He gave us that right of choice, hoping, desiring for us to choose the best of life, which is Him, His way, and truth. He never pushed anything on our will, He let us choose. He is alive, He is with us, He is for us, there is no greater God than Him. No man can steal our God given freedom, our liberty of heart which He gives us daily. In Christ, we are free indeed. Our flag flies freely, for now, but we have a fragile freedom because our culture is corrupting as we are attacked from within our nations from those who want to steal our freedom, subjugate, and hurt our children, stealing their innocence and isolating children from their family and parents. These corrupted, power hungry, soul sick people want to create a tyrannical society where we serve them as they serve no power higher than self. There has never been a time in history where absolute human power has not corrupted absolutely. Socialism and tyrannical dictators leave behind a legacy of suffering and death. We must say YES to GOD and NO to these power hungry, soul sick, evil people. Our lives are in the hands of our God, He has not relinquished His authority to evil. We look to God as this deplorable enemy, which we do not underestimate, pushes deception into our societies creating a chaos that disrupts our peace. We look to Almighty God and we pray for Him to protect our liberty against the attack of these evil forces who serve no power higher than self. God is here, with us, and He wants to be a part of our lives, so we look to Him. We have to stop looking to human beings, whose hearts are wickedly evil, whose absolute power has corrupted absolutely. We must return our hearts to the Rulership of our God, this is where we will experience incorruptible power and abundant love and provision. Human beings, created by God, created in His Image, uniquely shaped in our mother’s womb as male or female, with individual design and purpose, we must return to God, and wholly-holy align ourself with God, this is our reasonable service in times such as these. Our relationship with God, being His nation, being underneath His Sovereign will, this wholly-holy authority of God, is what will balance our teetering nations, right our spiritual keel, heal our nations and cause us to return to a freedom that is not overtaken by the evil designs of socialism, and a one world government, where even our children do not belong to us and our freedom is stolen. We are One Nation Under God, indivisible with freedom, liberty and justice for all. Let this be so. Let us return to a rulership of God, underneath the authority of God’s Love, our Creator, Who knows and wants what is best for us.

Is your soul affected by gloomy days? Does your attitude need sunshine to be able to smile? I have been there and done this! Had a soul atmosphere of gloom if the weather was bad, or if something didn’t go the way I planned. I have been a “Gloomy Gus” so many times until I realized that my happiness was a choice for joy and joy was found in my connection with God. God Joy is a strength like no other! I love this joy because no matter what external was happening, internally I was good, it was well with my soul! God’s joy doesn’t need sunshine, it is a choice to choose joy, to be happy because of Him, because of our future in Him. It is so incredible, our future that Jesus bought for us by His life, and no day that has no sunshine in it, that is gloomy and hard, where things are happening that we can’t even wrap our mind around, no day like this, and nothing eternal can steal our joy. Yes, we have an enemy, and yes He wants to steal our joy because he knows this is our strength. Our future is secure from everything and every one and especially the enemy of our soul. God won that battle already! This is our joy, our unspeakable joy, our abundant joy. We can choose to be gloomy in soul because the weather of the day is gloomy or we can choose Jesus Joy. Choosing to be gloomy based on external things like weather and bad situations, I call this being a “gloomy gus”! Have you ever been a “gloomy gus”? I sure have and it is not fun! It makes a gloomy day even worse! Our soul attitudes reflecting the weather or the situations of our life is not a good choice for us and doesn’t end well, in fact it dead ends us in depressive ways. Honestly, we have so much to be grateful for and we should reflect the joy of Jesus, our future and our hope is in Him. Gratefulness is our path to peace. So today, choose life, choose joy, and shake off that gloominess in your soul. It is a good day when we say say no to gloomy gus, not even letting the gloom enter our soul, and mess with our heart attitudes. We say “YES” to the joy of Jesus! We yield our day with all its God methods and purposes in play, to the Sovereign Will of our God, Who knows best for us and is working all the gloom and doom out for our good. What an amazing AWE-GOD He is!

The cultural storms are rolling in quickly and they are strong enough to capsize us in our soul! In times such as these, we can’t be distracted by these storms, we need to keep our eyes on Jesus. We don’t want to end up beached! We can’t look to people, they can’t help us. People can’t fix what is happening in times such as these. Jesus is the Fixer! Jesus knows about these storms and He knows how to right our keel, He knows how to save us. Jesus can bring our boat upright and cause us to be able to navigate the rough waters of our culture in times such as these where there is so much cultural chaos as the storms roll in, one after the other, pounding everything we are used to and making our lives abnormal. Change is happening in our society. There isn’t one thing that hasn’t gone up in price, everything costs more and you get less. More for less! Except God’s economy is the opposite, He gives us more and increases our provision too. There is nothing that deters God in taking care of us. He is a good Shepherd. Today, we will have everything we need. There isn’t much that isn’t shaking in our society, everything that can shake is being uprooted and there is nothing really that is secure as change is rapidly taking place. It is hard to even recognize our nations, the enemy of our soul is devastating our culture. What now? We stay anchored to Jesus, Who is a strong anchor and He changes not. Our future in Christ Jesus is secure, unshakeable, and guaranteed. Jesus and His Word should be our focus as we ride out these cultural storms. Remember, God is in the storm, there is no one who has usurped His authority and He has not released His authority over us to anyone. God is in control.

Yes, God can. There are times we feel that we are “underneath it all” but we are not. God is more than able to finish what He started in us. No Doubt About It! If life has given you a hard time and you feel stuck in a difficult situation, don’t fret, just ask God for help. It seems like a simple answer, “ask God” but it is a powerful solution. God can do anything and He can do it better and give us a result that is more than we could have imagined or hoped for. God is our more than enough. I bought this almost dead little yellow rose bush that I really did not think would make it, I bought it to try to save it because I love yellow roses. I didn’t have much hope for it. I nurtured it daily with water, fertilizer and kept at it, not giving up, and that scrawny, half dead rose bush just took off and became the most beautiful yellow rose bush I have ever seen. I think about my life, there were times I felt like I was that scrawny rose bush, and there was no way I could bloom in this life, I had way too much against me. I was wrong. God is more than enough for us. I have been through many things in my life time, but one thing I have not been is forsaken by God. Many are our trials at times, but God grows us through them all, and we eventually will bloom as we trust Him, leaning into Him, finding our sustenance in our vital-vertical relationship with Him. There is no situation that we find ourselves in where we are without hope. When we ask God for navigation and help, He is right there, activating His purposes for our lives. God is more than enough and He can do things for us that we can’t even begin to imagine He could do. I know, I have seen it in my life where He took me from situations where I was at the bottom of life and brought me up to the top. I know He can, I know He is more than enough. God is faithful and trustworthy. Trust Him today, ask God for help and watch Him work things out in that way only He can. God can take your scrawny, half dead rose and make a magnificent rose bush out of it and you will bloom and it will be beautiful. God bless ya.

We stand and we stand firmly when we have a foundation of God's Word and gratefulness. Why? Gratefulness has a strong object, an unbreakable foundation. I am grateful. One thing I know God is with me and for me. I am so grateful for this. I am thankful that no matter what we are growing through on this side of heaven, we have a bright promise for a forever without sickness, pain, disappointment, injustice, our future is going to be amazing and as we think on this, our Awe-God gratefulness becomes our focus. Evil is parading itself on the streets of our world as lawlessness and injustice are two prevalent things in our lives. It looks as if evil is winning, but this is not so, the truth is God wins. If we stay focused on all the amazing things God is doing, and we stir up our heart with gratefulness, we see less and less of the bad and more and more of the good. Gratefulness seems to fine tune our God discernment which activates our faith on what is not seen but believed for. It is not that we don’t “see” the bad, it is there, it just doesn’t capture our attention like God does. Gratefulness helps us because it takes our soul captive with the belief that God is at work in the unseen for our good and being thankful, it helps us let go and let God work. Today, we focus on Jesus, and we are grateful that He has grounded us in the strength of His Word. We are thankful for God’s Presence, and grateful that His Word holds us fast in the times where the world is battering us with cultural chaos. The waves of our crazy culture crash into our pilings and they hold because the foundation is strong, the Word of God is a fantastic foundation, it holds like an anchor. We are grateful for the Shalom of God which speaks peace into our chaos, disrupting it in that way only God can. Have you ever had a stormy life season where the waves just come crashing in one after another? It is easy to focus on the waves and become so very fearful about our future. We overthink whether our lives can stand through these crazy cultural storms upon us. As we refocus, simply-significantly being grateful for God’s Presence, always with us, the waves don’t seem as threatening, and it is well with our soul even when the storms are whipping all around us. The object of our gratefulness is Jesus, so when our heart is steeped in thanksgiving, He is what we see, we are no longer focused on the storm. What are you grateful for today? Speak it out to Jesus and focus your soul on all things God, His strong Word, His faithfulness, His trustworthiness, His power, His goodness, His plan, His peace, His character, and the future and hope Jesus bought for us with His life.

I don't like it. It is way outside my comfort zone! No! Not doing it that way! We don’t like God’s method’s. We don’t like God’s ways. We don’t like God’s timing. We don’t like God’s plan. When we swirl all this negative, stinking thinking around in our mind, before we know it, we are in full fledged rebellion against God. I can do this myself! I can do it better! Rebellion and foolish impulsivity pretty much go hand in hand. When we are impulsive, pride is always in the mixture and the one thing about pride that is always going to come through in our lives, is that pride goes before a fall. Whenever I have bucked up my will against God, it hasn’t ended so well. God, I don’t understand Your ways and sometimes I can’t even wrap my mind around why You do things the way You do. Ever said this to God? Truly, who are we to question God? To think we can do, speak and be without God, without His strength and favor? Who are we to think we don’t need God? This kind of choice, independence from God has a crash and burn endgame. The only place we will end up is flat on our face. Well, this might be a good thing, being flat on our face before God, it is very humbling and probably will bring us back into wholly-holy alignment with God. We do need God, there is no doubt about that. So, I hope for all of us to side step the deceptive traps of the enemy and walk with God in joy, strength, peace and wisdom. Lord, keep us dependent upon You in that heart to heart relationship with You. We are better people when we are in followship of You, Your ways, truth, life.

Exactly as we were warned that apart from God, we are not good. We were created to need God. So, we do confess our faults, thinking we know best, pride. Walking in our own strength, self-righteousness. Making our own way as we went along, tossing out what was right and embracing the easy, broad path of sin. We were deceived, You, Lord God are what is good for us. 🙏 We have been self-centered people, looking out for our own interests, pushing our opinions like they were truth and creating an atmosphere for deception to rule us. We, we are a mess, a big human mess, so we turn from the inside-out to our God, we acknowledge our sin, we confess, we ask to be restored in relationship with God. Jesus, You are the Light that no one, and nothing can extinguish, embrace us in Your Light of Truth. 🙏 We ask God to restore our spiritual soul, mind and heart, we pray and we seek God, changing our position to being underneath the Rulership of His Love.

As you can see in this video, it is definitely stormy and windy and it is hard to hold on to anything, so that is why we need to be anchored to a strong foundation in times such as these. Hope is that way, it is slippery in times such as these where the storm is upon our culture. What are you hoping in? Many times we use the word hope, so what does that word mean to us? Hope to me is something on my heart that I want to see happen, it usually is tied to God’s heart’s desires, but sometimes it is just about me, what I want. Hope… is it tied to expectations that we have? Once someone shared with my some really good wisdom about expectations. Because of the human nature, our expectations can get dashed and we can be hurt or disillusioned, or very disappointed. The wisdom about expectations is to flip them to hope by giving them a strong foundation that doesn’t need a human being to carry them out. What I mean by that is we should put our expectations in the hands of Jesus and this is when they become hope. Also, this makes the object of our hope not a imperfect human being, but a perfect God. This world is so crazy right now in that real cra-cra way where nothing is really secure or stable. So what is the foundation that is strong for our hope? It is Jesus! There is no stronger foundation than Jesus as we put our hope in Jesus, and the wind is whipping up and chaos is in our culture, we know that our hope is in a safe place, we know God can do anything and we know that what we hope in, He is already working on to fulfill that hope in the most perfect timing ever. God finishes well, so putting our hope in Him is a great choice. Truly it does help you to hope BIG. I always hope Big because the foundation of my hope is Jesus Christ and there is no stronger foundation. Jesus is the object of my hope and I find myself not being disappointed or my hopes dashed, but I find myself believing, trusting and waiting on God with an active faith. When my hope is in Jesus, I am more stable in my emotions, I have more joy and I have more strength to endure. There is definitely a change in me when I hope in God, it becomes less of me and more of Him and that is a good change! God bless ya! Put your hope in God.

Is your soul parched? How can it not be in this season of time where persecution is prevalent and deception is all around us? Communion with God is so important for our spiritual health, our soul to be well in times such as these. Jesus, He made a way for us, by the way of the cross. He sacrificed His life on our behalf so we could have communion with God. This was His mission, His purpose in coming here to us. God desired relationship with us, a vital-vertical connection between the Father God and His people. We have access to “living water” for our soul and it should never be parched, no matter how bad our cultural chaos gets, we can commune with God, heart to heart. There is no one, or nothing that can take the Presence of God from us, God is with us, God is for us. God waits for us to have that special time of communion with Him, where our first step out into our day is bowed down before Him and He touches us, lifts our face to His, speaks to us from His heart. God paid for this time of “communion” with us. We try so hard to do things on our own, we leave God out. We have these compartments of our life-style. God, you can come into this compartment on Sunday, but the rest of the week, I can handle it. But truly, we can’t. Remember Jesus! He did nothing without communing with His Father. Jesus showed us what we needed that night He had the first communion with His disciples. He asked us to remember this, to do this in memory of Him. The cross represents “Communion” purchased by Jesus’ blood and body broken, because of what Jesus did, we have access to God, every day and in every way. We should never take this for granted and we should find our way to that special communion with God every moment to every choice, giving God total access to our lives. Have we compartmentalized God out of our life? If our soul is weary, if our compassion is fatigued, if we are struggling emotionally, maybe we should thick about taking down the compartments in our lives and being wholly-holy God’s in every way, every day, letting God navigate us, being in communion with God, heart to heart.

God Still Speaks~ Listen Up ~ Closely ~ Heart To Heart It is windy, loud and in our face, this is our current cultural chaos. How are we supposed to hear God? We can’t even hear ourselves think! There is so much chaos swirling around us, but God has not stop speaking, He has not stopped navigating us. If we slow down, if we stop trying to fix things, if we yield to God, listen up closely, heart to heart, we can hear Him, that still small, miraculous voice that is heard in the winds of our time. God still speaks. Open the Bible, sit with Him, let His Holy Spirit speak powerfully through His Word. Speak the name of Jesus, He is the disrupter of Chaos, He brings peace into the middle of our storms. Listen up to the Prophets of our time, He is speaking through them, navigating us by His Word. He has not stop speaking, we have stopped listening closely, we are hard of hearing. God still speaks. Get heart to heart with Him, listen closely for that still small voice of God. Think of it this way, this video has a lot of wind in it, but if you want to hear my voice, you listen in closely and you can hear it in the wind, God is in the storm, He has not left us, His voice is in the wind, listen up closely, God is still speaking, He is never not speaking, He is never not navigating us. When we want to hear, we listen up closely. Deception of our time is throughout the all of our lives. Our national media lies, our own corrupted government officials are craftily designing the stealing of our freedom, and the cultural chaos of deception among us all is like the angry sea, it is loud, it is crashing onto the shores of our lives, touching us all where we live in ways that are so very uncomfortable. Yet, God still speaks, still navigates, still has not left us, nor forsaken us to the way of the angry seas of our time. Maybe we need to step out of our comfort zone and listen up closely to God. God still speaks, His power is available to us. There is power in the name of Jesus, pray it up. There is power in the Word of God, pray it up. There is power in the Holy Spirit, Christ in us, the hope of glory, pray it up to Him. Listen Up Closely. There is power in the prophets He has chosen to give us the news before the news, (Julie Green Ministries) to prepare our hearts in wisdom, strength, courage and faith. God Still Speaks. Listen Up, Heart To Heart with Him, in personal, vital-vertical relationship with God. You will hear that still small voice and it will be clear, concise and revelational for times such as these. The wind whips around us, the chaos of the angry waves of our enemy crashing into the shores, all of this is so very loud, yet we can still hear the still small voice of God above it all. God Still Speaks. Human beings speak a lot of words, words, words, BUT when God speaks, things change up.

God bless you and your family, today I am praying for us all. Father God, we ask You to protect our “nuclear family” of father, mother, children. My father was the first one to teach me that a “family who prays together, stays together”! Dad taught me the power of togetherness and the protection of swimming in a school of fish, so we don’t get picked off by the enemy, who is so ready to deceive us to swim away on our own so the world can eat us up. God created us to be a strong family unit with Him at the center of our family. God-Jesus-Family A Three Strand Cord! We pray for every family unit to become like a three strand cord that is not easily broken. This is a family that has Jesus at the center of their family life. They are like a school of fish being led and in followship of the One who knows how to use the currents to swim together, safe and protected. We are better together, we are safer together, protected from the wiles of the evil of our time, from deception which is so prevalent. We have the counter cultural tide going on where good is bad and bad is good and it is sweeping into and through our nations with the divisive intention of isolating children from their family and dissolving the God given boundaries of gender. The enemy wants to destroy the nuclear family. God says: Stay together, swim together like schools of fish who stay within the boundaries of the family and are protected and safe from evil intentions. God created male and female and He creates each child given to each nuclear family, male or female, He shapes them in their mother’s womb. The enemy wants to destroy gender, because this will destroy the God given nuclear family that has been the strength of society from the beginning of time. God created family, just as He created in the fish the wisdom to swim in schools, because together is better, together is safer and together is being protected from evil. Today, we ask God to protect our “nuclear family” from the onslaught of deception, to protect the children from the deceiver. We ask Jesus to guide each child away from the cultural chaos of our time where people are rebelling against God and His design for them. Evil people are trying to erase gender for motives that are unseen by innocent children who they are preying on to advance their political agenda of a one world government. They are using gender confusion as their means for their political gains. If they can destroy the nuclear family, they can destroy the strength of the nation. God protect our children from their devices of evil, deception and crafty plans of our enemy, satan. Help us Jesus, the Nuclear Family, not to be isolated from one another through the deception of our enemy. Protect us and keep us swimming in the “schools of fish” that You have placed us in. Jesus, You create every family with a specific design, mother, father and children, You put together families, designed for our good, for the protection and welfare of humanity. This is Your creation, the nuclear family, we ask You to protect it in these times of evil, and let no weapon formed against our family prosper. Keep us swimming together as a “school of fish” through the currents and chaos of our times, keep us together because we know, together as a family is the best protection against the enemy of our soul. Together, Christ in us, our three strand cord which will not be easily broken and we will stand strong against this evil political agenda in the truth of God’s Word, together, unshakeable on His firm foundation and unbreakable by His Power! https://rumble.com/vwiy75-where-are-you.html https://rumble.com/vrvor8-better-together.html https://thebridegroomscafe.com/family-prayer-4/ Two people are better than one.

The enemy of our soul would love for us to drift away from God’s Word, our light of truth. When we step out of the light of truth, fear floods in with a darkness of evil that we should never underestimate its power to wreck our lives. This is why we stay in the “Light Of God’s Word”! God’s Word is extraordinary and it is spoken from the mouth of our Awe-God. God is the only one who can break through the darkness of deceit with incredible and powerful light that shatters the darkness of evil deception. Today we can live in the light of God’s miraculous presence. God is always with us, always for us, reigning in the darkness of this world with a light of His Glory. We can wholly-holy live aligned with God in personal relationship. We can hope in the dark as we wait for the persevering light of God to break through our darkness. There is no darkness that the light of God can’t supersede. There is no darkness of the enemy of our soul that can put out the light of God. Are you sitting in the dark, hopeless today. Get up!

I am grateful that everything in life that I experience is used to etch God’s character in my heart. At the times that we are growing through things that are hard, we would rather not have God’s ways written on our hearts, we sometimes would rather not grow through. But, as I look back with heavenly-hindsight, I am so very grateful for the finger of God etching His ways into my stony heart and creating a beautiful creation of His glory, a soft pliable heart, miraculously magnificent in every facet of life. I have been changed by my life experiences, and I know I am a unique design of God, shaped in a way I could never hope for or imagine. I am so very thankful to God, who is very detailed orientated and within the boundaries of His love, I have been shaped well. God takes a sharp edged heart of stone and makes it into a beautiful shiny, smooth rock, with its own unique design that stands out for all to see, a shape only He could create. All throughout our lives God uses what we human beings will stereotype as good things or bad things to shape our lives in His character, He changes our hearts through the life experiences He brings us to and purposefully through. We are all shaped so differently. Not one rock on that beach near the Mediterranean Sea was the same, all uniquely designed. Feeling awkward, what does the human condition do, it tries to shape others like they are designed, shape them in your image, because you are comfortable with who you are, but not who they are. Do we do this? Instead of loving people unconditionally, we put conditions on them to try to make them like us, in our image, in our shape, in our personality, because that is comfortable for us. Some people may not be easy to be around, because they are not designed or shaped in personality like us, and we have to step out of our comfort zone when they are around us because they are just not likable to us. Do we try to re-shape people in our image, with our design, with our shape? It is kind of hard to do and makes for really difficult relationships because GOD is the one Who uniquely designed them. God shapes our hearts through what He brings us to in this life. Whatever condition our hearts may be in, whatever situation we find ourselves in, God is using it, depositing His character in our hearts, softening our hearts, purifying our hearts and shaping our hearts to be beautiful, unique and special so people no longer see a stoney, jagged, hard heart, they see a beautifully designed heart, soft, smooth, pliable and responsive to the touch of God. Our hearts are His masterpiece, so open them wide to Him and let God work, shape us in with the method of His choice.

I am sure, without a doubt that there are not many of us who feel very challenged right now. Our national cultures are all in a state of flux and things we have known our whole lives as being wrong are lifted up as being right, there is only justice for those who lean into the political flavor of the day and have no opinion on how it tastes, just how they are told: You like this… then they say: I like this. Our society of human beings trying to cancel God, His ways, truth and life is exploding, because without Him, the ugly truth is, we are not good, the political flavor of the day doesn’t taste good, yet every news channel you turn, you hear the same prescript political mindless false narrative. “This isn’t bad, it is good, this isn’t good, its bad”! Anyone who doesn’t follow the script, you are cancelled this makes for a life-less society of brainless people who do as they are told, who listen to “a story” and not “the” story and believe the deception being spoon fed them without even searching for what is true. This kind of cancel God culture, this is exactly why Jesus was killed for something he did not do, because the cancel Jesus crowd was swayed by an angry mob yelling “Crucify Him”! Why? What has He done wrong? Oh, He has done whatever “they” said He did. We think that “we know what we know” but truly know nothing yelling “Crucify Him” riding on the coattails of an angry mob. Whenever deception is in control, everyone suffers. Jesus, God Incarnate, could have escaped all of this, but He was on mission, serving us, saving us, that He yielded to the plan of God, and in all meekness (power under control) He was beaten and crucified for absolutely no good reason. It was evil using people that put Him on that cross, people who had yielded to their humanity and not to God. We are at our best when we have yielded our life to God, when we are not yielded, we corrupt, our human condition fails forward and we can see in our history as a human race that our corruption is absolutely horrendous. Human beings are capable of evil beyond measure, even to the point of plotting to kill an innocent man, beating him to a pulp, and not only crucifying Him with ropes, but going to the extreme of nailing his feet and hands to the cross, a cross He did nothing to deserve to be on. Human being, we are capable of horrific things apart from God and influenced by the evil of satan who wants to kill, steal and destroy us, we put to death the One GOD, Who wanted to love us, save us for all eternity. Us without God, nations that are not “Under God” it is not pretty, in fact it is ugly and leans into some really bad times of suffering for all people. People taking illegitimate authority over others, walking in the light of a man made fire that flames out… these are going to be dark times of suffering. We need God. We need to return to Him, to His way, truth and life. Otherwise our suffering will be great. Dig Deeper: Life Is A Beautiful Agony As Jesus’ Life Purposefully Was! His Passion Is An Undeserved Cross, Suffering That Should Have Been Ours. We Are Fallen And Wounded By Our Human Condition And Jesus Bled Into Our Wounds, His Blood And Healed Us Eternally So! https://thebridegroomscafe.com/how-love-wins/ https://rumble.com/vay6md-rudely-interrupted.html
