First look image from Mel Gibson’s Resurrection of the Christ. Gibson’s Resurrection of the Christ delayed until May 6, 2027. “This film represents a major part of my life’s work, and it has demanded everything of me as a filmmaker and as an artist. This is far more than a film to me. It’s a mission I’ve carried for over 20 years to tell what I believe is the most important story in human history.”

🚨 BREAKING: President Donald J. Trump Just Did Something NO Sitting President Has Ever Done
In a powerful moment, President Trump opened the Bible and read 2 Chronicles 7:11-22 aloud — word for word.
Here’s what he read:

“If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

He didn’t just quote the famous verse 14 — he read the full powerful passage, from Solomon finishing the Temple to God’s solemn warning and promise.
We have NEVER had a sitting President do this.
Not like this. Not with this clarity. Not pointing America straight back to the God who founded her.
This isn’t politics.

This is a leader calling a nation to repentance, humility, and revival.
When was the last time you saw a President open the Scriptures and declare that God can still heal our land — if we turn back to Him?
Share this if you believe America needs this message now more than ever.

God bless President Trump.
God bless the United States of America. 🙏🇺🇸

Woke is a death cult that executes common sense and devours anyone who tells the truth

It spreads insanity like a plague and turns mental illness into the new standard

Worst of all, it has turned pure evil into a religion and demands we worship it

Elon Musk just defended America better than every politician in Washington combined.

Musk: “After World War 2, the US could have basically taken over the world and any country. Like we got nukes, nobody else got nukes. We don’t even have to lose soldiers. Which country do you want?”

One nation on earth held a weapon nobody else had.

Total dominance. Zero competition. No risk of retaliation.

Every empire in history that held that kind of advantage used it.

Rome. The Mongols. The British. The Ottomans.

They conquered until they collapsed.

America had a bigger advantage than all of them combined.

And it rebuilt the countries it just defeated.

Musk: “The United States actually helped rebuild countries. So it helped rebuild Europe, it helped rebuild Japan. This is very unusual behavior, almost unprecedented.”

Almost unprecedented?

It had never happened before. Not once in 5,000 years of recorded history.

The Marshall Plan wasn’t foreign aid.

It was the most radical act of restraint any superpower ever committed.

America turned its enemies into allies. Turned rubble into economies. Turned surrender into partnership.

Germany went from ashes to the economic engine of Europe in a generation.

Japan went from unconditional surrender to the third largest economy on earth.

Three years after the war, America was flying food into Berlin.

A city in the heart of the nation that just tried to destroy it.

That’s not policy.

That’s a civilization deciding what it is at the exact moment it has the power to be anything.

You’re being told a story right now.

That America is the villain of history.

You hear it everywhere. Media. Universities. Social platforms.

Musk: “There’s always like, well America’s done bad things. Well of course America’s done bad things, but one needs to look at the whole track record.”

Every nation on earth has dark chapters. Every single one.

The difference is what a country does when nobody can stop it.

And when nobody could stop America, it fed its enemies and rebuilt their cities.

Musk: “The history of China suggests that China is not acquisitive. Meaning they’re not going to go out and invade a whole bunch of countries.”

Probably right.

China has historically built walls, not fleets.

But the real question isn’t about borders anymore.

We’re approaching a moment that mirrors 1945 in ways nobody has fully processed yet.

AI is going to give a handful of people a power advantage that makes nuclear monopoly look quaint.

If someone is going to hold that kind of power, who do you want it to be?

The country that conquered when it could? Or the one that rebuilt when it didn’t have to?

Every alliance. Every trade route. Every economy.

Billions lifted out of poverty.

All of it traces back to one act of restraint that had never been done before.

And carries no guarantee of being repeated.

The most powerful thing America ever did wasn’t building the bomb.

It was what it didn’t do after.

This is among the scripture I pull on frequently. I started leaning into it in the very tough days of USAF pilot training. And then, again and again, when flying into harm’s way, whether combat or special operations. I encourage you to lean on it when times are challenging:

Philippians 4:6

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Amen. And good night! ❤️🙏🇺🇸

The Great I AM: Your Morning Anchor of Hope and Strength

Good morning, beloved family in Christ!

As a new day dawns, let these timeless words from Scripture wash over your heart and lift your spirit:

**“And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.”** (Exodus 3:14 KJV)

What unspeakable comfort we have in knowing the One who simply *IS* — the eternal, self-existent God who never changes, never fails, and never leaves us. This same great I AM stepped into our world as Jesus Christ and declared, “Before Abraham was, I am” (John 8:58). He is the unchanging Rock when everything around us shifts. He is the Light that scatters every shadow of doubt. He is the Provider who meets every need before we even ask.

No matter what this day holds — joy, trial, uncertainty, or victory — take deep comfort in this truth: the Great I AM is with you, for you, and fighting for you. You are never alone, never forgotten, and never without hope. Let that reality fill you with fresh strength and peace right now!

**Morning Prayer**
Heavenly Father, the Great I AM,
Thank You for revealing Yourself as the eternal, all-sufficient God. In a world that changes moment by moment, You remain the same yesterday, today, and forever. Wrap Your loving arms around us this morning. Calm every anxious thought, strengthen every weary heart, and remind us that because You ARE, we can face this day with courage and joy.

Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, guide our steps, and let the light of Christ shine through us to everyone we meet. We rest completely in the comfort of knowing who You are.

In the mighty, matchless name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior,
Amen.

May the Lord bless you and keep you today. Walk boldly in the grace and presence of the Great I AM!
Amen and Amen.
🙏🏻✝️⚔️🛡️💜

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

This prayer comes from Pastor Richard Baxter in the 1600s.

Years ago, I saved it for one simple reason: One day, I am going to have to set an example to my kids and my grandkids to show them how a Christian man dies.

BREAKING🚨 : ⚡ NASA releases insane new image of the mighty hexagonal storm on Saturn's North Pole.

This massive storm is over 20,000-mile-wide. Wide enough to fit roughly 4 Earths inside it. It's been observed continuously since Voyager spotted it in 1981, so at least 45 years, though it's likely much older
