Why I am TRUMPhant

 

1 Corinthians 15:57

King James Version

57 But thanks be to God, 

which giveth us the victory 

through our Lord Jesus Christ.


Why do I feel TRUMPhant?

Rather, triumphant?

Well, JESUS won.

COMMON sense won.

The people won.

GOD's laws won.

Israel won.

All because Trump won.


GOD made him win.

I knew GOD did.

I know it as a fact.

GOD's SPIRIT gave me this verse for Trump.

TWO* days before he won:

Ecclesiastes 3:15

King James Version

15 That which hath been is now; 

and that which is to be hath already been; 

and God requireth that which is past.


That's why I'm rejoicing!

Man is back to common sense!

Trump's platform is "common sense".

Something the world needs so badly right now.


Trump acknowledged GOD "sparing" his life.

That's all you need to win.

Just acknowledge GOD.

Only He's got the power anyway.

Zechariah 4:6

King James Version

6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, 

This is the word of the Lord 

unto Zerubbabel, saying, 

Not by might, 

nor by power, 

but by my spirit, 

saith the Lord of hosts.


Matthew 19:26

King James Version

26 But Jesus beheld them, 

and said unto them, 

With men this is impossible; 

but with God all things are possible.


John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.


It's really all for GOD's GLORY.

Every victory we have, belongs to GOD.

Every victory comes, through JESUS.

PURE common sense.

Born again benefits

 Ezekiel 36:26-27

King James Version

26 A new heart also will I give you, 

and a new spirit will I put within you: 

and I will take away the stony heart 

out of your flesh, 

and I will give you an heart of flesh.

27 And I will put my spirit within you, 

and cause you to walk in my statutes, 

and ye shall keep my judgments, 

and do them.


What ends ALL confusion?

Being born again  does.

All become clear.

All become joyful.

All become wonderful.


Clear, because now, you know GOD's laws.

Joyful, because now, you are saved by JESUS.

Wonderful, because now, your life has meaning.


Before GOD made me born again in 2019, I did usual research.

Read all the books I can.

Bought all the books I can.

Studied all the books I can.

Did I get anywhere?

No closer than when I first started.

NO ONE seemed to be able to CLOSE the "loop".

No one was able to give me ABSOLUTE knowledge.


So, GOD let me exhaust myself.

Allowing me to go around in circles.

Allowing me to study, anything but His Bible.

Not having work, or money, I kept on.

One day, I finally ran "empty".

Exhausted, I sat down, looked to Him, and surrendered.

I was totally out of answers.


I also committed to not sinning anymore.

Just so you know, I did not "trade".

I did not say, "I won't sin anymore, just so long as..."

Nope, did no such thing.

Did not even occur to me.

I had that much respect for GOD.

I was simply sick of self, and sin.

I did not want to sin anymore.


Turned out, THAT was the VERY statement, and moment, GOD waited for.

And that's when His SPIRIT finally led me to Scripture.


He made me open whatever Bible I had at home.

FIRST subject He led me to was prophecy, through Zechariah.

SECOND subject was the four gospels on JESUS.

THIRD subject was Genesis, where it all began.


And when I started reading Genesis, I was committed to studying the Bible.

The first two verses, alone, captivated my heart, mind, body, spirit, and attention!

I knew I was on to "something" --

Genesis 1:1-2

King James Version

1 In the beginning 

God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, 

and void; 

and darkness 

was upon the face of the deep. 

And the Spirit of God 

moved upon the face of the waters.


That, too, was my VERY FIRST encounter with the "SPIRIT of GOD":

"And the Spirit of God 

moved upon the face of the waters."


WOW...

That made me imagine it EXACTLY as GOD wanted me to see it.

He knows I have a childlike heart.

Over five years, and 111 blogs later, I'm still at it.


SPIRIT has been teaching me non-stop.

He leads me to a verse, and an article is born.

More often than not, a whole blog is born.

May I write fast enough for SPIRIT.

May I share fast enough for JESUS.


These 62 months have been a flurry of non-stop writing.

Only because this is the task given me.

To write about Scripture.

To write about prophecy.

To write about the Triune GOD.

To write about you.


You should try being born again sometime.

All nonsense drops.

Common sense shows up.

Your heart beams in peace, love, joy, excitement, and contentment.

Something the world can never give you.

But only JESUS could.

What, as they say, are you waiting for?


Pray that GOD opens your heart now.

Become born again, as I did.

ACCEPT the LORD's INVITATION:

John 3:3-8

King James Version

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born again, 

he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, 

How can a man be born when he is old? 

can he enter the second time 

into his mother's womb, and be born?

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water 

and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, 

and thou hearest the sound thereof, 

but canst not tell whence it cometh, 

and whither it goeth: 

so is every one 

that is born of the Spirit.

Starts with parents

 Deuteronomy 6:7

King James Version

7 And thou shalt teach them diligently 

unto thy children, 

and shalt talk of them when thou 

sittest in thine house, 

and when thou walkest by the way, 

and when thou liest down, 

and when thou risest up.


Don't blame the children so much.

For their weird, quirky ways.

Even their queer ways.

Did they have role models?

Who were their role models?

What did society show them?

What did society teach them?

What did schools teach them?

What have you taught them?

What have you showed them?


We were all babies once.

Kids once.

Teens once.

How are our lives now?

How did we get to be where we are now?

Did we blame anyone?

Did we thank anyone?

Was there something missing in our lives?

What could we have learned better?

What could have been taught us better?

What did we have wanted to have known?

Do we blame anyone, for any misfortune?

Do we thank anyone, for any blessing?

The questions, and review, can go on and on.

But one thing I maintain as born again:

Born again parents have an edge.


They've got everything going for them.

They were taught about JESUS.

They were taught by SPIRIT.

They know Scripture.

They know GOD's commands.

There's no excuse for them to fail their children.

Even as children have minds of their own, too.

What the kids do with their own lives, is their own choice.

Still, parents need to teach kids about GOD:

Deuteronomy 6:4-5

King James Version

4 Hear, O Israel: 

The Lord our God is one Lord:

5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God 

with all thine heart, 

and with all thy soul, 

and with all thy might.


Deuteronomy 6:8-9

King James Version

8 And thou shalt bind them 

for a sign upon thine hand, 

and they shall be as frontlets 

between thine eyes.

9 And thou shalt write them 

upon the posts of thy house, 

and on thy gates.


As with everything else, success or failure depends upon the choices we make, and the predestination we have.

Addressing the basics

 "If you're struggling to pay your rent, or feed your kids, you don't have the privilege of thinking about things like LGBTQ rights, unless you've got somebody in your family that's personally affected...Our party needs to figure out that not everybody is thinking about these very important social issues."

-- Susan Wild, a Democrat

How President-elect Donald Trump won Pennsylvania − and what voters say about the flip


As a kid, we were taught in school the basics: food, clothing, and shelter.

It's what every person needs.

Of course, to have all that, you need a job.

You need income.

School didn't teach us about "retirement".

Or what career to have.


In my last year in high school, our guidance counselor interviewed us about "interests".

But it didn't guide us through "careers".

Which, till now, I wish they did.

What good is knowing what a child's strengths are, unless you're able to translate it into a prospective "course" or "career"?

I received no such guidance.


Wasn't high school preparation for college?

Oh, the many missing gaps of school!

I wish school taught us more practical stuff.

One good thing they taught us was "GOD".

It was automatic, because I studied in Catholic schools.


Has it changed much?

Anywhere in the world?

I think it's pretty much the same.

Food, clothing, shelter, and "faith".

But first, get a job.

Make a living; earn a living, as they say.

But I always felt there was so much more.


My "education" reached a high the day GOD made me born again in 2019.

His SPIRIT began teaching me.

I set aside all other knowledge after that.

All I learned about "survival", I learned from JESUS.

SPIRIT and Scripture taught me about the LORD.

Now, I look to JESUS, for everything.

As He said:

Matthew 6:25

King James Version

25 Therefore I say unto you, 

Take no thought for your life, 

what ye shall eat, 

or what ye shall drink; 

nor yet for your body, 

what ye shall put on. 

Is not the life more than meat, 

and the body than raiment?


Matthew 6:30

King James Version

30 Wherefore, 

if God so clothe the grass of the field, 

which to day is, 

and to morrow is cast into the oven, 

shall he not much more clothe you, 

O ye of little faith?


Matthew 6:31-33

King James Version

31 Therefore take no thought, saying, 

What shall we eat? 

or, What shall we drink? 

or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?

32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) 

for your heavenly Father knoweth 

that ye have need of all these things.

33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, 

and his righteousness; 

and all these things 

shall be added unto you.


Matthew 6:34

King James Version

34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: 

for the morrow shall take thought 

for the things of itself. 

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.


John 6:35

King James Version

35 And Jesus said unto them, 

I am the bread of life: 

he that cometh to me shall never hunger; 

and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.


Matthew 10:29-31

King James Version

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? 

and one of them shall not fall on the ground 

without your Father.

30 But the very hairs of your head 

are all numbered.

31 Fear ye not therefore, 

ye are of more value 

than many sparrows.


John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.


When you know GOD, and His laws, you're on the right footing.

You're on the right path.

We don't think about LGBTQ.

Satan put that in.

Why Trump will succeed

 Galatians 5:13

King James Version

13 For, brethren, 

ye have been called unto liberty; 

only use not liberty 

for an occasion to the flesh, 

but by love serve one another.


Why will Trump succeed?

What makes me think he will?

Well, GOD chose him.

He seems to have a love for Israel.

GOD will guide him.

Thus, he will succeed.

So long as he remains humble.

And teachable.

He's also been there; done that.

He's been president of America once; he's president again.

He was anointed for the job GOD wanted him to do.

He's been successful; he's known failures.

He's been liked, he's been maligned; he survived it all.

He's a businessman; he knows economy, and efficiency.

He knows the people he can work with.

He knows the people to avoid.

He knows the way Washington is run.

He knows how the world is run.

Leaders around the world know what he is about.

He knows the leaders, too.

He is older, and thus, wiser.

He has his family behind him.

He has his team to depend upon.

He has learned from his past mistakes.

He knows who to trust now.

He has his voters rooting for him.

People look to him with hope.

People trust him.

People know he's not perfect, but they like him.

He's gotten the "pulse" of the people.

He may be a marketing guy, but he knows he has to "deliver".

He cherishes this second chance to do better.

He's got kids and grandchildren he'd want to pass a legacy to.

He makes people laugh.

People feel affectionate toward him; and vice-versa.

He's been known to act upon his plans, and promises.

He knows EXACTLY what America needs, and wants.

He's focused on making America great again.

He promotes the very-much-needed COMMON sense.

He has survived the slings, and arrows, directed his way.

He has even "dodged" bullets.

If he wasn't that important, why would they have tried to assassinate him?

Obviously, he's a threat to others.

Well, GOD put him there, as president-elect.

His critics will have to deal with that.

GOD will always see His plan to fruition.

Now, for Trump and team to remain on the "path".

Matthew 7:13-14

King James Version

13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: 

for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, 

that leadeth to destruction, 

and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, 

and narrow is the way, 

which leadeth unto life, 

and few there be that find it.


With JESUS leading the WAY.

John 14:6

King James Version

6 Jesus saith unto him, 

I am the way, the truth, and the life: 

no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

On addressing LGBTQ

 Proverbs 16:16

King James Version

16 How much better is it 

to get wisdom than gold! 

and to get understanding 

rather to be chosen than silver!


It takes courage to speak up.

But a born again will.

We need to tell you of GOD's laws.

That's why we don't get confused.

GOD's laws are clear.

We delight that one woman admitted her party's errors.

We delight that one man could not be bullied into submission.

Listen to these two brave warriors.

And their thoughts on LGBTQxyz.

I added those three last letters.

Seemed appropriate.


COMMON SENSE from a defeated, but "awakened" Democrat during the 2024 American elections:

"If you're struggling to pay your rent, or feed your kids, you don't have the privilege of thinking about things like LGBTQ rights, unless you've got somebody in your family that's personally affected...Our party needs to figure out that not everybody is thinking about these very important social issues."

-- Susan Wild

"How President-elect Donald Trump won Pennsylvania − and what voters say about the flip"


COMMON SENSE from an African president, when pressed, for an answer on LGBTQ by a popular journalist:

"As it is now, we are grappling with five million young people who don't have jobs, four million people who are hungry, and that is my concern. That is the forecast of the people of Kenya at the moment."

-- William Ruto, 5th President of Kenya

"HOPE for KENYA"


A world gone woke is not cool at all.

It defies all GOD created.

Beware Satan's traps.

He gets you "occupied" with senseless stuff.

So he can "occupy".

World now awake

 Ephesians 5:14-16

King James Version

14 Wherefore he saith, 

Awake thou that sleepest, 

and arise from the dead, 

and Christ shall give thee light.

15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, 

not as fools, but as wise,

16 Redeeming the time, 

because the days are evil.


Thank GOD for the 2024 U.S. elections!

It lifted the burden from so many people.

Having Trump win, shifted the tides.

It dispersed the pervading darkness.

GOD had a plan, and He was onto it.

But first, He had to wake up America.

She was like sheep being led to her slaughter.

She had no champion.

No one was carrying GOD's banner.

There was no standard-bearer.

Most everyone was woke.

GOD had to wake her from her slumber.

She was getting catatonic.

She was dying.


When GOD made Trump win, all changed.

As if a cloud was lifted from our shoulders.

Everyone started celebrating again.

As if released from lengthy prison.

People began to breathe easier.

They started making plans again.

Hope was in the air.


Satan was hoping America would remain in a stupor.

He was preparing her coffin already.

But that was not GOD's plan.

He wanted America awake, aware, and alert.

His beloved Israel was being hurt, maligned, marginalized, and decimated.

She needed help from America.

GOD had one very simple rule regarding Israel:

Genesis 12:3

King James Version

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, 

and curse him that curseth thee: 

and in thee shall all families of the earth 

be blessed.


GOD knew Trump was going to help Israel.

He was the man for the job.

With America's triumph, Israel feels stronger again.

Together, they can conquer all their challenges.

In the same manner, their enemies are alarmed.

And with good reason.

With GOD at the helm, wicked world watch out!

You have no idea GOD's wrath.

Job 38:22-23

King James Version

22 Hast thou entered 

into the treasures of the snow? 

or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail,

23 Which I have reserved 

against the time of trouble, 

against the day of battle and war?

World gone woke

 Galatians 5:19-21

King James Version

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, 

which are these; 

Adultery, fornication, 

uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, 

variance, emulations, wrath, 

strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, 

revellings, and such like: 

of the which I tell you before, 

as I have also told you in time past, 

that they which do such things 

shall not inherit the kingdom of God.


I must have been so born again awake, that I didn't pay much attention to the word "woke".

Today, SPIRIT and I created a poem for it:


The world's gone woke.

It's gone broke.

It's began to croak.


What does "woke" mean?

"Beginning in the 2010s, it came to be used to refer to a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights. Woke has also been used as shorthand for some ideas of the American Left involving identity politics and social justice, such as white privilege and reparations for slavery in the United States."

-- Wikipedia


What I minded was when they began to use GOD's sacred rainbow colors for LGBTQ.

That's when I started really paying attention.

Every gender now seems politicized, weaponized, and demonized.

Hardly the work of GOD at all.

His laws are clear.

One verse alone says it all:

Genesis 5:2

King James Version

2 Male and female created he them; 

and blessed them, 

and called their name Adam, 

in the day when they were created.


We're all male, and female.

GOD blessed us both.

He called us both, "Adam".

He created us.


Why "Adam"?

1 Timothy 2:13

King James Version

13 For Adam was first formed, 

then Eve.


So, what's all the fuss about in the world?

Why deviate from GOD's laws?

Why the division?

The corruption?

The perversion?

The discontent?

The demands?


Women are not to usurp power over men.

It's in the Bible.

1 Timothy 2:12

King James Version

12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, 

nor to usurp authority over the man, 

but to be in silence.


If you're born again, you embrace all of GOD's laws.

It is great guidance for each day.

It is a delight to follow GOD's WORD.

JESUS is GOD's WORD personified.

He was always the best example of what He taught.

He may be the SON of GOD, but He didn't throw His weight around.

He always gave GLORY to the FATHER.

The world is in total contrast to JESUS.

It refuses His commands.

And yet, only He can save it.

Why Kamala lost

JESUS said:

Matthew 10:33

King James Version

33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, 

him will I also deny before my Father 

which is in heaven.


Why did Kamala lose?

What made her lose?

Who made her lose?

She was beautiful.

She was smart.

But she had pride.

She turned away JESUS at her rally.

With an engaging smile, she told His young followers they were at the "wrong" rally.

And everyone laughed.

She told them to go to the "smaller rally".

Pointing her finger, "Down the street."

All the more people laughed.


People are so unaware.

How they grieve the LORD's heart so.

How they humiliated His faithful.

I cringed, when I heard her words.

I knew what would happen.

But our LORD is merciful.

JESUS did say, at the cross:

Luke 23:34

King James Version

34 Then said Jesus, 

Father, forgive them; 

for they know not what they do. 

And they parted his raiment, 

and cast lots.


But all is not lost for Kamala.

All is not lost for the "left".

All is not lost for the "woke".

All is not lost for the Democrats.

All is not lost for Israel's enemies.

JESUS died for us all.

He cares about each one of us.

He will look for that one, lost sheep.

Luke 15:3-7

King James Version

3 And he spake this parable unto them, 

saying,

4 What man of you, 

having an hundred sheep, 

if he lose one of them, 

doth not leave the ninety and nine 

in the wilderness, 

and go after that which is lost, 

until he find it?

5 And when he hath found it, 

he layeth it on his shoulders, 

rejoicing.

6 And when he cometh home, 

he calleth together 

his friends and neighbours, 

saying unto them, 

Rejoice with me; 

for I have found my sheep 

which was lost.

7 I say unto you, 

that likewise joy shall be in heaven

over one sinner that repenteth, 

more than over ninety and nine just persons, 

which need no repentance.


Such is GOD's love.

Such is His mercy.

May Kamala and her group wake up to CHRIST.

Only through Him can we all be saved.

Acts 4:12

King James Version

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: 

for there is none other name 

under heaven given among men, 

whereby we must be saved.

Why Trump won

 2 Corinthians 1:21-22

King James Version

21 Now he which stablisheth us 

with you in Christ, 

and hath anointed us, 

is God;

22 Who hath also sealed us, 

and given the earnest of the Spirit 

in our hearts.


Why did Trump win?

What made him win?

Who made him win?

Simple.

GOD "told" me, through Scripture.

Two days before the elections, this verse indicated Trump would win:

Ecclesiastes 3:15

King James Version

15 That which hath been is now; 

and that which is to be hath already been; 

and God requireth that which is past.


That verse ought to suffice.

But I'll tell you more:


Trump seems kind.

He seems to listen.

He wants to give his best.

Perhaps, he's learned from the past.

Maybe, he wants to do better.

He's giving us his best people.

When one of them backed out, he put in another.

He wanted a program of continuity.

He wanted to succeed, at all costs.

He wanted to help people.

He seemed to hear their cry.

He seemed to care.

He wanted to make American great again.

We all know America is suffering.

She's lost her crown.

She needs help.

Israel needs help.

Only America seems to care about her.

Everyone's ganging up on both of them.

That wouldn't do.

Israel must not be destroyed.

GOD will make sure of that.

So what did He do?

He made Trump win.

He made America win.

Now, America will help Israel.

Now, America can regain her dignity.

Now, America can help others again.

Perhaps now, America will look to GOD again.

But that's all part of the "process".


Because we're born again, expect all observations to be backed by Scripture.
