Something is off.
Wrong.
I feel it in my spirit.

I look at our world, specifically at our country, and I see things happening at a pace I never thought possible.

Do you see it too?

Fewer and fewer people are thinking for themselves or even have the opportunity to do so.

Instead, hidden minions, working behind the scenes of social media, dictate the very information we see on a daily basis and herd us into a homogeneous mass of groupthink.

The information you see on the phone you hold in your hand is being used to manipulate your thinking and your actions.

What’s more, those who attempt to promote Biblical values, or even critical thinking, are quickly “canceled” and their voices increasingly banned. People in the UK are being arrested for retweets.

And what’s more frightening is how quickly many have accepted this, while those who actually fought for the freedoms this great country built on are growing old and dying.

In just a few years, we’ve changed from a country that celebrated free speech, rugged individualism, sacrifice and truth, and fought for the lives of the innocent and the downtrodden, to a people blindly looking to celebrities and power-hungry politicians for our values.

We’ve left the church in masses and look to government as god, giving wealthy career politicians more and more power over our families and our pulpits… like frogs in proverbial pots of boiling water.

Where are those who will stand on biblical principle?

Where are those who will call wrong things wrong?

Where are those who will carry the banner of truth and ignore the voice of scoffers?

Are they out there and their voices silenced?

Is it not now, more than ever, the time for “good men to come to the aid of their country” ? Where are those who will protect the innocent? Are there any who will fight for religious freedom?

It is time for the church to really stand on what we say we believe and live like we trust what God calls “right” more than what our culture says is “right”.

Oh friends, truth is always worthy ground upon which to stand! This is exactly why the evil one is working so hard to confuse it and to squash it.

May we, who have seen the destruction wielded by the father of all lies, refuse to sit idly by and allow truth to be silenced and wrong called right.

Oh friends, these are hard days, and they may get harder. But may it not be said of us, that we did nothing to protect the truth and values that have made this country a lighthouse for those who yearn for freedom.

And may we understand the ultimate goal of those who seek to squash our liberties and propagate lies is to prevent others from hearing truth and finding eternal freedom that comes only by the blood of the One who gave all that others may truly live.

May we understand this is a clash of spiritual powers and may we choose wisely where we stand.

May we pray. May we make the voice of truth heard.
