I didn’t realize I was unsubscribed. I mentioned before I am 69 battling colorectal cancer. I am raising 4 grandkids. We are stuck in Ca. for now. I wanted to thank you for the reminder to be aware and the Bible scripture. It was uplifting which I seem to need a lot of lately. Thank you and the Mrs. for caring❤❤❤
Sister, please look into Dr William Makis who is in Alberta Canada. He has testimony after testimony of folks being healed of late stage 4 cancers of every kind with Ivermectin and Fenbendazole. I pray you can find healing bc those kiddos need you. I’ll keep you in prayer.
Thank you that was edifying and encouraging! Have been in a heavy depression to the point of having a difficult time doing anything. Lost my husband of over forty years a few months ago and need to rise up. Taking my grandson to Christian school has helped me look forward to the morning. God bless you for sharing.
I too lost my husband of 57 years 2 months ago. The hard thing is knowing where I go from here. What I am supposed to be doing. Talking about this to the Lord. I want to be sure I do the Lords will. And just understanding what his will is. And dealing with feeling lonely at times, even though I have all my children, and grandson around me. But I know that I am being attacked by Satan. Because he wants me to sit down and feel sorry for myself instead of living for my Lord and Saviour. So I submit myself unto the Lord, resist the devil, and he has to flee. I have to keep my eyes on Jesus. Living life one day at a time. It's not easy. But the Lord said we would have tribulation. And this is part of it. He said for us to strive. Jesus said those that endure to the end shall be saved. I love what Isaiah 33:17 says " Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off. ". That verse comforts me. I feel the love of my Saviour every day. And we need to walk with the Lord every day. Staying in his word and talking to him. He is our strength against the enemy. Praying for you. Hold on to Jesus with every thing you have. We have to. Love from a sister in Christ.
During hurricane Harvey's visit to our home in the Texas Gulf Coast, nearly everyone was "carrying" and my everyday carry included a 2A device and a flashlight. I drew my flashlight probably a hundred times a day but never had to draw my other device. That said, it was there and I wouldn't even think of not having it. Even today, we don't go to the grocery store without it. If you knew where something bad was going to happen, why would you be there? You need to be prepared for what you DON'T see coming.
Very important message, thanks for sharing today! It's just as important to be packing at home as it is out and about. Stay aware, stay strapped, stay safe folks. God is good, all the time. Blessings.
The wolf was helpful in giving you a thoughtful lesson it seems. That is good, scary but what isn't scary these days. It is tough to prepare for things we can't fathom and or if we aren't rich...I hate that money plays importance of safety as in buying rural land and supplies etc. But truth is that in the end only God matters and your love and kindness. Even in saying I'm aware that kindness can quickly shift to literally fighting for your life if civil war or Armageddon happens. So it brings us to the only factor that should not change...God. Thank you for an enlightening message.
We we're on our wooded property, 5 acres, in central FL camping the weekend after Milton. There were areas of the property that had standing water. We went to sleep Saturday night and awakened (twice) by our dog gruffing in his kennel, aleeting us to damger..once i opened my eyes i heard something large breathing heavy breathes precededed by a sound that was from the pits of hell..I froze, it was two feet from my head on the other side of the tent wall. Its pitch black outside, no lights at all in the area. Lesson learned..the pew pew needs to be locked, loaded amd only the safety needing to be removed and motion lights will be installed this weekend. Thankfully the guard dog was on point and alerted us. We never did see whatever it was. It came back after we settled back in. Sleepless night after.

Thank you for the scripture and emphasizing where the armor comes from! Btw, in 2008 hurricane winds took out many of the power lines in Cincinnati. I was without power for a week at my house!!
Hi Brad Im glad nothing happened. where i live in northern Manitoba Canada Flin Flon is in the middle of the bush. There's Coyotes ,Bears , Wolves, and foxes. all over the place. Now with whats going on in the world were at a pivitol point were anuthing can happen . Trust the big guy.
That’s scary…. Yes you do have to be prepared for anything, but when you are busy and in a hurry ya don’t pay attention to your surroundings. We all need to be on our toes!
I hike out in the desert. Didn't know there were 50 illegals a mile from our house. The place were I hike. Scary I'm in southern New Mexico. I do go prepared plus have dogs with me. I quit going out there to scary.
While you're at it, please pray against those powers and principalities in high places who are attacking the leaders of many nations! They seem especially vulnerable.

Three seperate times in my life I have heard old men say "The things you see when you don't have a gun." I understand that this is in the context of hunting, but I think about it every time I think I might leave the house without a firearm - and then I put it on.
Thank you for the video. At first I thought you might mean "wolves" metaphorically, in reference to criminality and lawlessness. Natural threats still exist however -- even an aggressive bull could be dangerous. Recently I heard something (it sounded like a mouse or rat) running around on the ceiling like a mad thing one night, clearly tremendously excited, as though delighted to be there. I prayed to God to drive it away, and shortly after that I heard it exit at one of the corners, near the gutter drainpipe. It was gone. That was the second time that God delivered me from a rodent. The first time it was several years ago, on the ground floor inside the house. I couldn't get at it, I didn't want to put out poison because of my cats, and the smell got worse and worse. Finally I prayed with steadfast determination, and it left. In case it might make a difference to someone, I add this comment which I originally wrote for someone else, about the power of the Name of Jesus; it has made a big difference for me in my life. Christian believers who are in right standing with God can use the Name of Jesus (the authority of Jesus) in an effective way. A simple way to be right standing with God is to pray the Lord's Prayer (that Jesus gave us to pray) from the heart (trusting in God with child-like humility and dependence). Three times I read about people being saved by the power of the Name of Jesus here in South Africa. Twice in newspaper reports, a number of years apart. It was a provincial newspaper with a large circulation. The first time, there was a small article at the bottom of the front page. It reported on an attack that took place a long distance away from the head office of the newspaper, in the south of the country. A woman was walking in a park when two youths rushed at her and started stabbing at her with screwdrivers. She raised her hands to fend them off, and they stabbed her in the hands. She then cried out, "In the Name of Jesus don't hurt me!" They turned away from her and started stabbing each other. Then they stopped and ran away. Although the woman had been injured, she found this experience tremendously positive, and afterwards said that people should not be afraid to trust God to help them. The second newspaper report was on page 4 if I remember correctly. In another part of the country (this time in the north, also a long distance away), a university student and his girlfriend were sitting in a public park, working on a study assignment. Suddenly four men wielding knives approached them and attacked them. They tried to defend themselves -- the female student threw her cellphone at one of the attackers, while her friend tried to fend off the others with his notebook. He realized that it wouldn't be enough, and shouted, "In the Name of Jesus Christ, go away from here!" The attackers immediately turned and fled. The student said afterwards that there had been a church group nearby, but that they had done nothing to help them. The third report of someone being saved in this way was in a book on farm attacks. The author explained the modus operandi of farm attackers, and mentioned amongst other things how they would sometimes leave some kind of object (often of a certain color to give a coded message) near the gate or fence of a farm that attackers intended to target. Farmers had to be on the lookout for such things and for anything unusual. In the last or penultimate chapter of the book, he said that after covering all that he did, he had something more to say which might make a difference, to people willing to consider such advice. He told of various individuals who had found themselves trapped by attackers and had to think quickly. One of the incidents he described was of a woman who had just returned home from a shopping trip. She parked her car in the driveway of her yard, and got out of her car. As she stood there with her shopping bags, a group of men ran towards her from the backyard. She cried out, "In the Name of Jesus, leave me alone!" (or something similar). They changed direction, curving away from her, and kept running, right out the gate. She never saw them again. As I've mentioned, I have personal experience in this regard but would prefer not to provide all the details. Suffice to say that I was finally able to put more distance between myself and someone who was involved in the occult (who I forgive and regard with compassion and respect), by saying, "In the Name of Jesus I bind you; in the Name of Jesus I forbid you from watching me any further and exercising influence over my life; in the Name of Jesus, go away!" It was effective. The person (astral projecting with the help of an evil spirit) couldn't continue watching me that way. I read somewhere of someone in Tibet having had a visionary dream in which Jesus appeared to him and advised him as to how one should deal with evil spirits. Amongst other things (according to what I read -- can't remember whether it was in a book) this person reported that Jesus had told him that when you say with authority, "In the Name of Jesus", demons (evil spirits) freeze. I don't know whether that is true, but if it is, it would mean that you don't have to be in a nervous hurry when (while in right standing with God), you rebuke an evil spirit (or a person being urged to do something evil -- e.g. harm you -- by evil spirits -- a person who has decided to give in to that urging). You can be calm about it. When you issue the command, say it like you mean it, in a succinct, straightforward way. Not in a ritualistic way, as though it's mere words, but from the heart. Almost like you would tell a dog that follows you, to "Go home!". You can even say it softly if you want -- demons have sharp ears. I suspect that what might be happening in the case of someone who attacks you in person -- within hearing distance -- is that evil spirits are very afraid of Jesus and His authority (they tremble in fear), and that when a Christian believer rebukes evil spirits, the fear that they feel can also be felt by the human being they are influencing. Whatever the explanation might be, the important thing to me is that thanks to the power and grace of God, it made a difference. I have a defense. However I do not know whether it will have any effect on people who are just following instructions and doing their job. I know that there will come a time when the Beast will wage war against God's holy people and will be allowed to overcome them (according to the Book of Revelation). Some will end up in prison. The important thing is to endure to the end -- if we are willing and determined to endure, God will help us to do it.
Hello, I just wanted to say thank you for a reminder about putting the armor on fully. I live in NC, which is not the same as it was. God is always with us. God will never leave you or forsake you. I have seen people helping each other out with what they need. Praying for those who lost everything and lost loved ones. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. I believe that God is in control, and he will provide what people need. God is good all the time and all the time God. ❤😊🙏 God bless you and I hope and pray that everybody is doing okay.
Thank you Brad and Christa for sharing this. It blessed my heart. That wolf comes in many forms in our lives. Putting our trust in the Lord and keeping it there. Very last word that Jesus said in Mark, chapter 13 was WATCH. He said that for a reason. We have to take the whole armour of God to be able to stand. Love from a sister in Christ.
Oh my I needed the Bible reading today. I not sure what's going on with me but I feel spiritual dead. I go to apostolic chruch you would think I shouldn't have this problem. God Bless you and family.
I hate to see complacency prevail in our lives when it's so directly contrary to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty. Jimmy Carter said that 👆🏻 And we stand up for the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty & his truth & for everything that he has done for us to give us the strength to do so by faith thru grace in Jesus Christ Almighty🪖🛡️🗡️🥾 belt (they don't have an emoji for a belt...lol!)
One of many things we do is pray Psalm 91 everyday. We are praying and fasting too for the election because there are evil spirits at work against our country.
WHATEVER HAPPENS... be sure your SPIRITUAL HOUSE IS IN ORDER ☝️ 💖 This is SPIRITUAL WARFARE AND IT'S GONNA INTENSIFY ☝️ Put on the FULL ARMOR OF GOD EVERY DAY ☝️☝️ Stay well and be safe 🙏 Texas Nana Psalm 91
Some of the Ports are closed down. Some reopened, others closed. Ephesians 6:10-20. Be strong in the Lord. Put on the whole armour of God. That you may withstand in the evil day. Stand firm. Be ready. Take up the shield of faith, and extinguish the flaming darts of the evil one.
@Bigfamilyhomestead I guess I'm not understanding. Because I was thinking we are supposed to turn the other cheek. My friend and I disagree about this all the time. But, I have never asked my pastor. Can you tell me more on your thoughts. Please
When one of my sons was in 6th grade, he kept getting jumped onto by another boy. Being a Christian mom, I always encouraged my children, not to fight, turn the other cheek. The situation grew worse and I related the problem to my pastor and asked him what to do. His answer: "The word of God says to turn the other cheek, BUT, HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THAT SECOND TIME!" I told my son . The next time, my son took care of it. No more problem. Paraphrasing the word, it says. " in as much as it is possible" seek peace. If you show your self as weak and harmless, then you may be the victim. The enemy doesn't want strong and able, but an easy target with least resistance. Of course, pray and trust God for an answer when possible. But when action is needed immediately, and there are persons who say that we should believe that God will take care of it. REALLY? So I like what Mike Murdock says " If God wants you to comb your hair, He'll comb it for you!" 😂Grandma Gina 88.
The blood of Jesus' covers me and my house. Yes, I believe in Jesue, yes, I am a christian! Read the Bible and pray every day plus stock food and other items.
Hi guys, I’m trying to get on the monthly buying Thrive Life but couldn’t see any place to hit the monthly button. If you see my name could you fill that part in for me. All I have is an iPhone. Thanks.

We went to sleep Saturday night and awakened (twice) by our dog gruffing in his kennel, aleeting us to damger..once i opened my eyes i heard something large breathing heavy breathes precededed by a sound that was from the pits of hell..I froze, it was two feet from my head on the other side of the tent wall. Its pitch black outside, no lights at all in the area. Lesson learned..the pew pew needs to be locked, loaded amd only the safety needing to be removed and motion lights will be installed this weekend. Thankfully the guard dog was on point and alerted us. We never did see whatever it was. It came back after we settled back in. Sleepless night after.

Q❤
With a shield you can only defend; with a sword and a shield you can attack and defend.
Three seperate times in my life I have heard old men say "The things you see when you don't have a gun." I understand that this is in the context of hunting, but I think about it every time I think I might leave the house without a firearm - and then I put it on.
Thank you for the video. At first I thought you might mean "wolves" metaphorically, in reference to criminality and lawlessness. Natural threats still exist however -- even an aggressive bull could be dangerous.
Recently I heard something (it sounded like a mouse or rat) running around on the ceiling like a mad thing one night, clearly tremendously excited, as though delighted to be there.
I prayed to God to drive it away, and shortly after that I heard it exit at one of the corners, near the gutter drainpipe. It was gone. That was the second time that God delivered me from a rodent. The first time it was several years ago, on the ground floor inside the house. I couldn't get at it, I didn't want to put out poison because of my cats, and the smell got worse and worse. Finally I prayed with steadfast determination, and it left.
In case it might make a difference to someone, I add this comment which I originally wrote for someone else, about the power of the Name of Jesus; it has made a big difference for me in my life.
Christian believers who are in right standing with God can use the Name of Jesus (the authority of Jesus) in an effective way. A simple way to be right standing with God is to pray the Lord's Prayer (that Jesus gave us to pray) from the heart (trusting in God with child-like humility and dependence).
Three times I read about people being saved by the power of the Name of Jesus here in South Africa. Twice in newspaper reports, a number of years apart. It was a provincial newspaper with a large circulation. The first time, there was a small article at the bottom of the front page. It reported on an attack that took place a long distance away from the head office of the newspaper, in the south of the country. A woman was walking in a park when two youths rushed at her and started stabbing at her with screwdrivers. She raised her hands to fend them off, and they stabbed her in the hands. She then cried out, "In the Name of Jesus don't hurt me!" They turned away from her and started stabbing each other. Then they stopped and ran away. Although the woman had been injured, she found this experience tremendously positive, and afterwards said that people should not be afraid to trust God to help them.
The second newspaper report was on page 4 if I remember correctly. In another part of the country (this time in the north, also a long distance away), a university student and his girlfriend were sitting in a public park, working on a study assignment. Suddenly four men wielding knives approached them and attacked them. They tried to defend themselves -- the female student threw her cellphone at one of the attackers, while her friend tried to fend off the others with his notebook. He realized that it wouldn't be enough, and shouted, "In the Name of Jesus Christ, go away from here!" The attackers immediately turned and fled. The student said afterwards that there had been a church group nearby, but that they had done nothing to help them.
The third report of someone being saved in this way was in a book on farm attacks. The author explained the modus operandi of farm attackers, and mentioned amongst other things how they would sometimes leave some kind of object (often of a certain color to give a coded message) near the gate or fence of a farm that attackers intended to target. Farmers had to be on the lookout for such things and for anything unusual. In the last or penultimate chapter of the book, he said that after covering all that he did, he had something more to say which might make a difference, to people willing to consider such advice. He told of various individuals who had found themselves trapped by attackers and had to think quickly. One of the incidents he described was of a woman who had just returned home from a shopping trip. She parked her car in the driveway of her yard, and got out of her car. As she stood there with her shopping bags, a group of men ran towards her from the backyard. She cried out, "In the Name of Jesus, leave me alone!" (or something similar). They changed direction, curving away from her, and kept running, right out the gate. She never saw them again.
As I've mentioned, I have personal experience in this regard but would prefer not to provide all the details. Suffice to say that I was finally able to put more distance between myself and someone who was involved in the occult (who I forgive and regard with compassion and respect), by saying, "In the Name of Jesus I bind you; in the Name of Jesus I forbid you from watching me any further and exercising influence over my life; in the Name of Jesus, go away!" It was effective. The person (astral projecting with the help of an evil spirit) couldn't continue watching me that way.
I read somewhere of someone in Tibet having had a visionary dream in which Jesus appeared to him and advised him as to how one should deal with evil spirits. Amongst other things (according to what I read -- can't remember whether it was in a book) this person reported that Jesus had told him that when you say with authority, "In the Name of Jesus", demons (evil spirits) freeze. I don't know whether that is true, but if it is, it would mean that you don't have to be in a nervous hurry when (while in right standing with God), you rebuke an evil spirit (or a person being urged to do something evil -- e.g. harm you -- by evil spirits -- a person who has decided to give in to that urging). You can be calm about it.
When you issue the command, say it like you mean it, in a succinct, straightforward way. Not in a ritualistic way, as though it's mere words, but from the heart. Almost like you would tell a dog that follows you, to "Go home!". You can even say it softly if you want -- demons have sharp ears.
I suspect that what might be happening in the case of someone who attacks you in person -- within hearing distance -- is that evil spirits are very afraid of Jesus and His authority (they tremble in fear), and that when a Christian believer rebukes evil spirits, the fear that they feel can also be felt by the human being they are influencing. Whatever the explanation might be, the important thing to me is that thanks to the power and grace of God, it made a difference. I have a defense.
However I do not know whether it will have any effect on people who are just following instructions and doing their job. I know that there will come a time when the Beast will wage war against God's holy people and will be allowed to overcome them (according to the Book of Revelation). Some will end up in prison. The important thing is to endure to the end -- if we are willing and determined to endure, God will help us to do it.
Hello, I just wanted to say thank you for a reminder about putting the armor on fully. I live in NC, which is not the same as it was. God is always with us. God will never leave you or forsake you. I have seen people helping each other out with what they need. Praying for those who lost everything and lost loved ones. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. I believe that God is in control, and he will provide what people need. God is good all the time and all the time God. ❤😊🙏
God bless you and I hope and pray that everybody is doing okay.
🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Thank you Brad and Christa for sharing this. It blessed my heart. That wolf comes in many forms in our lives. Putting our trust in the Lord and keeping it there. Very last word that Jesus said in Mark, chapter 13 was WATCH. He said that for a reason. We have to take the whole armour of God to be able to stand. Love from a sister in Christ.
❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my I needed the Bible reading today. I not sure what's going on with me but I feel spiritual dead. I go to apostolic chruch you would think I shouldn't have this problem. God Bless you and family.
Goodness guys, 29th is my birthday 😮
its hard to plan for this hurricane, the dam broke.
The hurricane that hit Ohio was Ike my parents were without power for 3 weeks
TIME & TRUST- in the LORD. Can any of us, right now, admit " I was warned, and I just didn't get around to it"?!?
Got set upon by a coyote, broad daylight. Slapped leather pumped out 2 rounds. Wylie got away.
I hate to see complacency prevail in our lives when it's so directly contrary to the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty. Jimmy Carter said that 👆🏻 And we stand up for the Lord Jesus Christ Almighty & his truth & for everything that he has done for us to give us the strength to do so by faith thru grace in Jesus Christ Almighty🪖🛡️🗡️🥾 belt (they don't have an emoji for a belt...lol!)
Yea the number on the message count was 666. Now its 669.
Amen !
I thought this video was about land grabbers.
One of many things we do is pray Psalm 91 everyday. We are praying and fasting too for the election because there are evil spirits at work against our country.
So, did the wood get split? 😂
I did share your bible info with another pastor and to my bible study today. God will equip the ones being called. ❤
WHATEVER HAPPENS... be sure your SPIRITUAL HOUSE IS IN ORDER ☝️ 💖
This is SPIRITUAL WARFARE AND IT'S GONNA INTENSIFY ☝️
Put on the FULL ARMOR OF GOD EVERY DAY ☝️☝️
Stay well and be safe 🙏

Psalm 91
Some of the Ports are closed down. Some reopened, others closed. Ephesians 6:10-20. Be strong in the Lord. Put on the whole armour of God. That you may withstand in the evil day. Stand firm.
Be ready. Take up the shield of faith, and extinguish the flaming darts of the evil one.
That you may stand in the evil day.
That you may stand in the evil day.
I love wolves and they are sacred. Wolves are in your area. With more poeple building on their land they have no where to go.
Being a pastor, could you have hurt the wolf. If it had come at you?
yes.
@Bigfamilyhomestead I guess I'm not understanding. Because I was thinking we are supposed to turn the other cheek. My friend and I disagree about this all the time. But, I have never asked my pastor. Can you tell me more on your thoughts. Please
I carry sometimes, but not sure I could hurt a flea
When one of my sons was in 6th grade, he kept getting jumped onto by another boy. Being a Christian mom, I always encouraged my children, not to fight, turn the other cheek. The situation grew worse and I related the problem to my pastor and asked him what to do.
His answer: "The word of God says to turn the other cheek,
BUT, HE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THAT SECOND TIME!" I told my son . The next time, my son took care of it. No more problem.
Paraphrasing the word, it says. " in as much as it is possible" seek peace. If you show your self as weak and harmless, then you may be the victim. The enemy doesn't want strong and able, but an easy target with least resistance. Of course, pray and trust God for an answer when possible. But when action is needed immediately, and there are persons who say that we should believe that God will take care of it.
REALLY? So I like what Mike Murdock says " If God wants you to comb your hair, He'll comb it for you!" 😂Grandma Gina 88.

The blood of Jesus' covers me and my house. Yes, I believe in Jesue, yes, I am a christian! Read the Bible and pray every day plus stock food and other items.
Dang, I love y'all just honestly reminding me of me and my husband.
Glad you have you here :)
Hi guys, I’m trying to get on the monthly buying Thrive Life but couldn’t see any place to hit the monthly button. If you see my name could you fill that part in for me. All I have is an iPhone. Thanks.
