The Never-Late God
The election among Republican Senators for Majority Leader was held yesterday, and the person I wanted to see in that position, Rick Scott, did not win. However, many prayed regarding this decision; therefore, we trust the Lord to do what is needed through Senator John Thune.
President-elect Trump has released several statements regarding his plans once elected. I found it very interesting, in light of yesterday’s post, that the GOP platform in this election was subtitled: A Return To Common Sense. Including the subtitle, the GOP platform used the words “Common Sense” seven times.
In one of the dreams I shared yesterday, I referenced the writings of Thomas Paine, which included an influential pamphlet titled “Common Sense.” This booklet helped persuade the colonists to fight for their independence from Britain. “It was sold and distributed widely and read aloud at taverns and meeting places. In proportion to the population of the colonies at that time (2.5 million), it had the largest sale and circulation of any book published in American history.(1) As of 2006, it remains the all-time best-selling American title and is still in print today.”(2)
In the dream, Paine threw me a football that had the word “Triumph” on it and contained a key that also had this word inscribed on it. The connection between Paine’s “Common Sense” and the common sense Trump promoted in order to triumph is undeniable. If you have not done so, I encourage you to take a look at yesterday’s post.
Here is another statement Trump released, a plan to dismantle the Deep State:
“Immediately reissue my 2020 executive order, restoring the President’s authority to remove rogue bureaucrats.
“Clean out all of the corrupt actors in our national security and intelligence apparatus.
“Totally reform FISA courts, which are so corrupt that the judges seemingly do not care when they’re lied to in warrant applications.
“Expose the hoaxes and abuses of power that have been tearing our country apart.
“Launch a major crackdown on government leakers who collude with the fake news to release false narratives and to subvert our government and our democracy.
“Make every Inspector General’s office independent and physically separated from the departments they oversee so they do not become the protectors of the deep state.
“Ask Congress to establish an independent auditing system to continually monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people, or that they are not spying on someone’s campaign like they spied on my campaign.
“Continue the effort launched by the Trump administration to move parts of the sprawling federal bureaucracy to new locations outside the Washington swamp.
“Work to ban federal bureaucrats from taking jobs at the companies they deal with and that they regulate.
“Push a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.”(3)
These common-sense steps would go a long way to cleaning up Washington, but they will be difficult to attain. Prayer will be needed. I remind us all today that our nation was born under the banner of a prayer movement: Appeal To Heaven. I have often said, “It was prayer that birthed America, and it will be prayer that rebirths her.” This is why God brought the ATH flag out of hiding a few years ago. It is also why the woke left, including woke preachers and authors, don’t like the flag, calling it a symbol of insurrection. They can take up their complaints with George Washington, the flag’s initiator, and God, whom it references.
Keep appealing, Ekklesia, to the “never late” God!
Pray with me:
Father, we are appealing to You to help incoming President Trump, his Cabinet, Speaker Johnson, Majority Leader Thune, and all who work with them as they attempt to clean up our government. It has become a bureaucratic cesspool. We ask You to oversee the process, including the removal of those in the way. Cleanse and restore. Give us humble, servant-hearted, patriotic leaders who honor You.
We are very certain that plans are being formulated to oppose this process. We ask You to aggressively expose and stop these plans. Rise up and scatter Your enemies (Psalm 68:1). Shatter the works of darkness (Psalm 2:9). We command Your will to be done, as You instructed us to do in Matthew 6:10, and we bind opposing spirits and their strategies.
We continue to ask for Your protection over our government leaders. Also, expose and thwart terrorist plans. We ask You to destroy terrorist organizations and their plans. End the influence of principalities behind terrorism in the Middle East and here in America.
And finally, You told us to ask for spiritual rain when we discern it is time for it (Zechariah 10:1). We know it is time, and we are asking. Let it rain!!! We ask for all of this in the name of He who has ALL authority, Jesus. Amen.
Our decree:
We decree that appealing to the God of heaven worked during America’s founding, and it still works today.

CNN put out a piece on the Appeal to Heaven flag and called it a right-wing political statement. MY HOA in FL asked me to take it down about 3 weeks ago. I told them it is not a right wing political statement that promotes a political adgenda. It is an American flag the goes back to George Washington and the Revolutionary War. I told them NO. So far I have not heard anything from them. They don't have a "leg to stand on" with their claim.
