If you've never heard the incredible story of former music superstar Michael Card and Dr. Bill Lane, please give me just a few minutes and you won't regret it 👇
@RonDeSantis My son works in a small Florida city and the city council has frozen hiring and any pay increase in case the property tax relief passes. What do small non tourist towns do?
The world has heard about the insane antics aboard that airline flight that was suddenly transformed into a demonic display of violence and danger. But it just so happens that a friend of mine was the one involved and the one attacked, and you need to hear his message if you haven’t already.
We spoke earlier, before he released his post. Demonism is on the rise in America because America has forgotten who her God is, and we’ve left the door open.
Let’s repent. Let’s pray. Let’s get back to our biblical roots.

Thirty-six years ago, two men dressed as police officers cut Jesus out of His frame with a blade.
March 18, 1990. Boston. 1:24 in the morning.
They walked into the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, tied up the guards, and spent 81 minutes taking whatever they wanted. Thirteen works of art. Half a billion dollars.
One of them was Rembrandt's The Storm on the Sea of Galilee.
Painted in 1633. The only seascape Rembrandt ever made. And he spent it on Mark chapter 4.
Look at what he painted.
A fishing boat tipped almost sideways. A wave breaking over the bow like a fist. The sail tearing loose. Men hauling on ropes that are winning against them. One disciple leaning over the rail, sick into the sea. Grown men. Fishermen. Men who had worked that water their whole lives, and their faces say they know this is the night it kills them.
And in the stern, in the one patch of calm light in the whole canvas, Jesus.
Asleep.
Mark 4:38. And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
Carest thou not?
That's not a question. That's an accusation. Screamed over wind by men who watched Him heal lepers a week earlier.
Now count the men in the boat.
Twelve disciples. Plus Jesus. That's thirteen.
Rembrandt painted fourteen.
Look at the middle of the boat. One man is holding the rigging with one hand and his cap with the other. He isn't fighting the sail. He isn't bailing water. He isn't looking at the wave, and he isn't looking at Christ.
He's looking straight out of the canvas. At you.
It's Rembrandt. He painted his own face into the storm.
A 27-year-old Dutchman put himself in a boat on the Sea of Galilee sixteen centuries after the fact, because he understood something most people miss when they read Mark 4.
This story doesn't have thirteen men in it.
It has every man in it.
You're in the boat. You've been in the boat. The night the phone rang. The diagnosis. The marriage taking on water faster than you can bail. Wind you didn't ask for and can't argue with. And the same accusation rising in your throat that rose in theirs:
Carest thou not that I perish?
And He stood up in the boat, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Then He turned to them and asked the question that should still sting:
Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith?
Not: Why did you wake me? Not: Why are you in a storm?
Why are you afraid with Me in your boat?
The painting has never been found.
The FBI searched for decades. Ten-million-dollar reward. Nothing. Somewhere in the dark: a warehouse, an attic, a wall it was never meant to hang on, that storm is still frozen mid-wave. And the museum never replaced it.
The empty frame still hangs in the same spot on the same wall in Boston. It has hung there empty for thirty-six years. Waiting for what belongs in it to come home.
Sit with that.
Because that's God.
He doesn't take the frame down. He doesn't hang something else in your place. However long you've been missing, however dark the room they're keeping you in, the space you were made for is still on the wall.
Thieves can steal the painting.
Nobody has ever stolen the Man in it.
He's still in the stern of every boat that carries His people. And the storm still needs His permission.
Peace. Be still.
Queridos musulmanes de España:
Mi familia y yo hemos decidido mudarnos a un país musulmán. Todavía no hemos elegido cuál — seguimos comparando cuál ofrece el mejor paquete de beneficios.
Naturalmente, todos mis vecinos quieren venir también. Y los vecinos de mis vecinos. Y sus colegas. Y los colegas de sus colegas. En nada, medio país aparecerá con maletas y un vago sentido de derecho adquirido.
Como una gran comunidad cristiana, necesitaremos unos pequeños ajustes:
Por favor, empezad a construir iglesias inmediatamente. Iglesias de verdad, con campanas. Campanas bien fuertes, que se oigan desde la plaza del pueblo.
También necesitaremos cerrar ciertas calles una vez al año para nuestras procesiones. Tranquilos, no es cinco veces al día — no somos animales.
Cada supermercado debe tener cerdo de verdad, jamón serrano, chorizo, panceta y fabada en lata. Ahora somos minoría, así que tendréis que ser comprensivos y acomodaros a nuestro estilo de vida.
Traemos todos los perros. Esperad muchos Labradores felices dejando regalitos en vuestras aceras. Necesitaréis parques caninos, y tendréis que sonreír mientras los paseamos delante de vuestras mezquitas.
Ya que estamos, vuestras fiestas religiosas son un poco… demasiado. Podrían ofender a la comunidad cristiana, así que agradeceríamos que las eliminarais discretamente. Gracias.
En escuelas y lugares de trabajo, nuestros niños y empleados deben poder llevar crucifijos grandes, comer bocadillos de jamón en la cantina y, en general, irradiar vibra cristiana sin que nadie se escandalice.
También exigimos salas de oración en cada edificio, además de traductores porque no tenemos intención de aprender árabe.
Si algo de esto se rechaza, por favor enviad una lista de direcciones de comisarías para poder denunciaros por discriminación, cristianofobia y mala leche en general.
Una cosa más: si mis hijos queman vuestra bandera porque España acaba de ganar un partido de fútbol, por favor sed comprensivos. Les echaré una bronca muy seria. Incluso podría hacer que escriban “perdón” 50 veces.
Por último, queremos beneficios generosos, vivienda gratuita y dinero de bolsillo mientras “nos integramos” durante las próximas tres generaciones. Trabajar es opcional, obviamente. También queremos beber alcohol y apostar de vez en cuando en las carreras de caballos.
Y cuando hace buen tiempo nos gusta ir sin camiseta. Tened paciencia. Ya os acostumbraréis.
Agradecemos vuestra tolerancia por adelantado. Al fin y al cabo, ¡la diversidad es nuestra fuerza!
Atentamente,
Un Cristiano Muy Razonable
Adversity is never easy, but God never wastes it.
We often pray for our trials to end as quickly as possible. Yet Scripture reminds us that God uses even our hardest moments to shape us, strengthen our faith, and prepare us for eternity.
“For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” — 2 Corinthians 4:17 (NLT)
God doesn’t call evil good, but He is so powerful that He can bring good out of even the darkest circumstances. As Romans 8:28 reminds us, He works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.
Perhaps the adversity our nation is facing today is setting the stage for spiritual awakening. Throughout history, God has often brought revival after seasons of hardship.
So don’t lose heart. Keep praying. Stay in God’s Word. Share your faith. Trust that the Lord is at work—even when you can’t yet see what He’s doing.
In 1982, Robin Williams did a routine as the American Flag for the Norman Lear produced tv special "I Love Liberty" created to bridge political divides - and it's one of the greatest pieces you'll see 🇺🇸
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.
She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.
And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.
To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.
I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?
Then I realized I was the wife.
I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.
And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”
He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”
That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.
He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.
Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.
Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.
The cross was Him naming the price.
Praise the Lord.
This lovely girl was followed while on a run with her dog.
She sits down at a restaurant for breakfast after her run and realized the same guy she saw on the trail is sitting now diagonally from her taking pictures, and video of her . From here she does something very smart . Her story is chilling and eye opening.
The dilemma of every true believer is this: we are in the world, but not of it.
Knowing Scripture means understanding where history is headed. That often raises an important question: if God has already revealed the future, what is the point of standing for what is right? Can we truly influence world events?
The answer is found in this tension: although God has declared the ultimate outcome of history, He still calls His people to live with conviction, courage, and obedience in the present. Our responsibility is not to redirect prophecy, but to faithfully represent truth and righteousness in our generation.
We are not called to surrender to evil simply because we know where history is going. Prophecy is not permission to compromise, excuse wickedness, or abandon what is right. Rather, it reminds us that even as the world grows darker, God remains sovereign - and His people remain responsible to stand firm.
Knowing that Iran will one day come against Israel does not make such an attack righteous, nor does it mean we should support the preservation of an evil regime. Likewise, the future rebuilding of the Temple and the rise of the Antichrist are not events believers should celebrate or help bring about, knowing the suffering and deception they will produce.
Bible prophecy was never given to make us passive. It was given to make us prepared, discerning, steadfast, and faithful.
In a world growing darker, colder, and more evil, Scripture is clear: “Let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
It is right to feel righteous anger when evil is rewarded, when wrong decisions are made, and when the innocent suffer while wickedness seems to prevail. But we must never allow that anger to turn into hopelessness.
More than ever, the signs are all around us. Yet those signs were never meant to fill us with fear, but with expectation.
Our redemption is drawing near.
🚨 JESUS WARNED US: The Greatest End-Times Deception is Here
“Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many… False christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.”
— Matthew 24:4-5, 24 (NKJV)
Jesus didn’t emphasize wars, earthquakes, or famines first — He warned about deception more than anything else in the last days.
Look around. The sudden explosion of talk about “aliens,” UFOs, and extraterrestrial saviors isn’t random. It’s the fulfillment of what He said would happen right before His return.
Many will be led astray by lying signs and wonders. Doctrines of demons. Strong delusion for those who reject the truth.
Don’t be deceived.
The real Savior already came — and He’s coming back. Not in a spaceship. On the clouds.
Keep your eyes on Jesus. Stay in the Word. Test every spirit.
The days are getting darker… but the King is coming soon. 🔥

I just finished an interview with Brad from Across Nigeria… and honestly, I’m sitting here stunned.
Today, he buried 14 Christians in a mass grave.
Two were infants.
One was a 4-year-old child.
And this isn’t some recycled internet story or political talking point. Brad was literally there today helping bury them. While on the way to investigate one attack, another Christian community was attacked. He said the violence is happening so fast they can barely keep up anymore.
What shocked me even more is this:
Brad shared that 72% of all Christians killed worldwide last year were killed in this region of Nigeria.
72%.
And hardly anybody is talking about it.
The mainstream media should be all over this. Instead, most people scrolling social media today have no idea our brothers and sisters in Christ are being slaughtered while churches are being forced underground.
Guys… this matters.
Please watch this interview.
Please pray for these families.
And PLEASE share this everywhere you can.
At this point, WE are the media.
WE are how people find out.
WE are the distribution network.
If enough ordinary people start sharing the truth, eventually the world will have to pay attention.
Watch the full conversation and help us get this story out.
