Two Must Reads
I urge you to read the following two articles related to the desire of too many to create a “New World Order”, which would be socialistic and in which America would not be the world leader it is today. The first is a current article written by Karen Hardin and published 7/30/2020 on the Intercessors for America Blog. It describes four steps being used today by those who, in my not so humble opinion, destroy America and our current form of government and turn us into a socialistic government. This article was published in 2018 but scroll to the comments for an updated list on a few of the goals.
The second is a list of 45 strategic goals of the Communist party to take over non-communist countries and the degree to which they have been implemented in the USA. They were published in 1958 in The Naked Communist and give a good insight into the thinking and strategies of the so-called liberal elite. This article includes examples of how these goals have already been implemented.
“Conspiracy Theory,” “could never happen” you cry? Don’t be so quick to judge. At the very least, these are food for thought as we consider and pray regarding current events.
FOUR STEPS OF A COUP D’ETAT: WILL AMERICA LEARN FROM HISTORY?
Scorecard: The 45 Goals in ‘The Naked Communist’ to turn America into a Socialist State
Until the next time…”May the LORD bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; May the LORD make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; May the LORD lift up His face toward you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).” (Numbers 6:24-26)

Be Prepared
In an earlier post (Musings on COFID-19 #5), I talked about the need to be prepared. I received the following link from a friend and felt it was worth sharing. This is not an attempt to instill fear. Contrary to what appears to be part of the agenda of many, that doesn’t help at all! I firmly believe that the Lord will take care of His own in all situations. Now, that doesn’t’ mean that we won’t’ suffer hardship. I also believe that He expects us to be aware of the times and use common sense.
Should be get carried away in stockpiling, No! But we do need to have more than then common 3-day hurricane box of supplies. COVID-19 showed us that need. We also need to have our financial house in order. As many have no doubt found out during the COVID shutdown, food and necessities such as toilet paper can be hard to obtain and any level of debt is unmanageable when your income is reduced or there is no income at all. The US government is not obligated to keep food on our tables and our utilities running. They have attempted to help, but they can only print so much money before everything collapses around them (and us)! This would be disastrous for all of us, except maybe those who want to destroy America and turn us into a dictatorship.
Of course, the primary preparedness item is to ensure your relationship with the Lord through salvation in Yeshua is secure and that you’re seeking to follow Him in everything.
Reflect on how this famous passage from Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” relates to what is happening in the USA, and around the world today, and then read the linked article in which it is quoted: “When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing; when you see that money is flowing to those who deal not in goods, but in favors; when you see that men get rich more easily by graft than by work, and your laws no longer protect you against them, but protect them against you … you may know that your society is doomed.”
Other great minds in our history have said much the same thing, including one or more of our Founding Fathers.

Until next time…”May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

Prayer for Businesses and Contract Workers
Prayer for Businesses and Contract Workers
The businesses that are being adversely affected by COVID-19 have been heavy on my heart. I was speaking with the manager of one of our favorite restaurants the other day, Serendipity in downtown Cary, NC. He said that they are doing enough business to keep the lights on but it isn’t easy. Thank HaShem for that!
However, many are reaching the point where they are facing the real possibility of having to close permanently. Also, remember individuals who are independent contractors who are unable to work. I think most barbers and hairstylists are in the latter category, and my wife and I personally know four of them. Please keep them all in prayer. Pray that HaShem will show them creative ways to continue to generate some level of income.
At this moment we may be subject to man-made rules that are really hurting us but HaShem is still in control and is carrying us through to victory in Him!
Until the next time…May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom. (Numbers 6:24-26)
