The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Honor In The Valley

Posted on March 8, 2026 by Chip Murray

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; ~ Psalm 23:4

Think about it…we were all children once. If you were abducted or lost, wouldn’t you want to know that someone was coming to rescue you? The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. We hold ourselves to the highest moral consciousness, knowing that children are the future. If we do not protect them, then we do nothing more than sow the seeds of destruction within our own nation, as well as others. In a world of changing and declining moral values, one trait distinguishes us from the other more clearly than race, gender, creed, or color. That trait is honor…honor feeds the spirit and soul of those who take it as their way of life. Honor must be freely embraced and treasured, not for the material benefits which it might bring, but for the knowledge that one has obeyed the moral law. ~ Bazzel Baz, Association for the Recovery of Children

On June 1st of last year, the Holy Spirit interrupted our CLOTH right in the middle of prayer with, WHAT ABOUT MY CHILDREN??? We spent the rest of that meeting in intercessory prayer and appeals to Heaven focusing on the horrors of child-sex-trafficking, abortion, and the insanity of transgenderism. Since that moment, Orange Strong members attended a conference in Yuba City, CA. to raise monies for Peace of Heaven, a Safe Home for children rescued from CST, attended the intense 6-day training taught by Bazzel and his wife Tina in Minneapolis last September, and formed two brand new committees; Protect Our Kids for the purpose of making it next to impossible for our children to become prey to trafficking predators, and Train Them Up (Prov. 22:6) to plant Christian Clubs in our High Schools to teach them God’s way…

The teachers tried to mold him with words and fancy rules, but Honor sang a different song and danced to a different tune. ~ Honor

I wrote Honor years before I was saved, but today in the context of Bazzel’s message above and the discernment of the Holy Spirit, I realize He was preparing me for this very hour. CLOTH sister Anita received the following Word in the same morning hours God gave me last Sunday’s Beware the Tares…

I am calling the men of this nation to rise up in prayer and fasting and to seek the Lord for your position of leadership in your family and church. It is not too late. It is never too late to love me and lead where I have called you. It is time to unstop your ears and take the blinders off your eyes. It is time to step up to the plate and hit a home run for the kingdom! ~ (Anita’s full Word in comment section of the last Tune-up)

I had lunch yesterday with a wonderful brother in Christ who lives God’s calling, but my heart broke when he raved about all the men’s Bible studies he attends with many of the men I know. They are the very see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil brethren He showed me in the last Tune-up. The very same who God is calling out through sister Anita. Blind, deaf, and dumb to God’s many messengers, including Eric Metaxas, Megan Basham, Donica Hudson, Trevor Loudon, Artur Palowsky, Matt Trewhella, Tricia Lindsay, Earl Wallace, Austin Kreutz, they have cemented themselves into the religious system of our day. Please pray for their awakening…

If we can stand before God apart from Jesus Christ, we have proved that Calvary is not needed. As soon as Jesus Christ comes in, He produces havoc because the whole world system is arrayed against His redemption. It was the world system of His day, and particularly the religious system, that killed the Son of God. ~ Oswald Chambers, Our Devotion as Disciples

Find a place where you can sit quietly alone for just a minute…and listen. Can you hear it? The sound of children crying out from Hell on this earth for honorable men. When He returns, as much as I love my Bible, the next to last place I want Him to find me is in a men’s Bible study while they are all out there! Maybe YOU can help rescue the next Lucy.

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Beware the Tares

Posted on March 1, 2026 by Chip Murray

They Disassociate From The Light

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. ~ Matthew 13:24-30

This past weekend we were honored to host Trevor Loudon at Howells church, and later that same day at CLOTH. Some tares are more obvious than others. The anarchists and Antifa are very easy to spot. But the Communists who have infiltrated every cultural institution in America are not nearly as obvious or visible. They are all about deception. But they are not the subject of today’s message.

The deadliest tares we face in America today are those the enemy sowed in our churches. It is no coincidence that our Orange Strong Bible Study is in the middle of Derek Prince’s 12-part series on Demons and Demonology at this very moment in time…because we are not dealing with flesh and blood, but with principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness, and spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). These spirits have willpower, emotion, knowledge, self-awareness, and conscience as we’ve learned from Derek Prince. And, they serve Satan through deception, enticement, manipulation, and ultimately defilement…all while appearing saintly and loving.

The giveaways are fairly easy to spot: They have a strong aversion to patriotism. They fear man more than God. They preach a hyper-grace, half-Gospel, feel-good lie from Milquetoast pulpits, and they disassociated themselves from the martyred man who came closer to filling the shoes of the apostle Paul than perhaps any man before him, in Charlie Kirk. Oh, I almost forgot…Zero discernment allowed them to close their doors over a bad cold and lead their flocks to inject a bioweapon into their own bodies and the bodies of their children. Finally, they seek the company of their own see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil brethren over the final John 17:21 unity Jesus prayed for before going to the Cross.

Brothers and sisters, comfortable and safe is a very dangerous place to be in this hour. We’ve been led by the enemy within not to trust our own intuitions and gut judgments…the very tools God gave us as He did the Sons of Issachar. Trust in God and beware the tares. In fact…  

…have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them (Ephesians 5:11).

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ What We Ought (3)

Posted on February 21, 2026 by Chip Murray

: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. ~ Ephesians 6:20

Deuteronomy 28 is often referred to as the most terrible chapter in the Bible, and 28:63 the most terrible verse in the entire Bible. Why? Because, as Dr. Ruckman writes, “it is the apotheosis of hate and vengeance and has never been surpassed.” The same God who rejoiced over us to do us good, will rejoice over us to destroy us…for refusing to do what we ought. During Nehemiah’s 1:4 certain days of mourning and weeping over the destruction of his beloved city of Jerusalem, he faced and owned his own sin and the sin of his people, “We have delt very corruptly against thee,” he acknowledged to his God. He came to the place of true repentance: The place where the behavior dies. Where the habit loses oxygen. When the sin you used to defend starts to disgust you. (Credit Jason Bowden)

Over and over again we blame God for His neglect of people by our sympathy with them…we imply that we are filling up what God has forgotten to do…In all probability the Spirit of God will begin to show us that people are where they are because we have neglected to do what we ought. ~ Oswald Chambers, Instant Social Reform

Don’t take the bait. United We Stand

Satan’s not targeting the unbelievers, he’s coming after the lukewarm Christians. The Deception Christ Warned Us About

The only power Satan has is the power we give him through our ignorance, fear, and sin. ~  Derek Prince

Oswald continues, Today the great craze socialism, and men are saying that Jesus Christ came as a social reformer. Nonsense We are the social reformers; Jesus Christ came to alter us, and we try to shirk our responsibility by putting our work on Him. Jesus alters us and puts us right; then these principle of His instantly makes us social reformers. They begin to work straightaway where we live, in our relationships… “Consider how God has delt with you,” says Jesus, “and then consider that you do likewise to others.” Because if we don’t, we know who will.

When we do what we ought, we grow. When we know what we ought to do and don’t, our spiritual life begins to atrophy, decay and slowly die. God gave us this life and everything we need to do so much more…

Wherefore he saith, wake thou that sleepest, and rise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. ~ Ephesians 5:14

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ From Our Captivity, Against All Odds

Posted on February 15, 2026 by Chip Murray

The bars we cannot see…

And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven,  And said, I beseech thee, O Lord God of heaven, the great and terrible God, that keepeth covenant and mercy for them that love him and observe his commandments: ~ Nehemiah 1:4-5

We Americans have not known true freedom since we surrendered to the black robe tyrants in 1963 and then again in 1973. America has been captive to a Romans 1:28 reprobate mind ever since. A reprobate mind sees what it wants to see and do what it wants to do without regard to “the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God,” as Thomas Jefferson put in our Declaration of Independence 250 years ago. The reprobate mind is unable to see the bars of its own prison cell.

Communist and Islamic wolves circle our bread & circus-addled neighborhoods mesmerized by the endless parade of Bad Bunnies dangled before them by the true master their pride won’t let them see…until its too late. Most all of you reading these words know exactly what I am saying. It doesn’t matter who you are; a town supervisor, a court clerk, a teacher, a county legislator, a farmer, a pastor…whether you live in Texas, Virginia, California, Washington, Wisconsin, or New York…whether you have a D or an R after your name. You feel powerless to do anything other than react to what the world is bringing down around you and your families in this very hour. That was never so…before 1963!

THE GOOD NEWS: Our God is the very same covenant-keeping God today as He was in Nehemiah’s day.

THE BAD NEWS: Most of you have grown too comfortable in your captivity to leave it.

Nehemiah’s vision was founded on his knowledge of Scripture, and faith in God’s covenant promise. Nothing has changed from that day to this day. Please join us as we humble ourselves before the LORD and enter into our own certain days of fasting and praying from sunset on February 19th to sunrise on April 1st. That we too may tell them that the hand of our God is upon us (Nehemiah 2:18). Amen?

I’ll see you on the wall in April!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ The Plan

Posted on February 8, 2026 by Chip Murray

And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat down and wept, and mourned certain days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of heaven. ~ Nehemiah 1:4

Nehemiah was a patriot who loved the country God gave His people, and the holy city of his youth, Jerusalem. The only way I could possibly relate more to the grief and despair Nehemiah was feeling in that hour, would be for God to put me in his shoes. Well, let me tell you friends, that is exactly what He has done with this former Jersey boy who grew up just across the river from the city we all loved. The ONLY difference between Nehemiah’s country and Jerusalem, and America and New York City is we are in ruin…without the smoldering. As hard as this is for me to grasp, there are friends and neighbors we grew up with cheering on and celebrating our own destruction from within. They are actually possessed by the spirits of Sanballat, Tobiah, and Geshem. But we are the sons and daughters of liberty, patriot sons and daughters of the very same God whose hand was upon Nehemiah then, and upon us now in this very hour!

From sundown on Thursday February 19th to sunup on Wednesday April 1st, I am calling on every man and woman who is willing and able, from Orange County, New York to Orange County, California to join me for our forty certain days of fasting, and praying before the God of heaven in preparation for nothing less than the restoration and reclamation of our Republic.

Our country, corrupted and poisoned from the top down, and outside in, will be restored and reclaimed from the bottom up, and inside out by God’s grace and good will using the very tools God gave us to build her in the first place…our Constitution. Beginning in April we need to show up in numbers wearing colors that reflect our patriot spirit and heart for God. Here in Orange County, NY we will be wearing T-Shirts and Hoodies imprinted with the image of Rosey the Riveter in tribute to the mama grizzlies who kept the wolves at bay through the Covid years. The blue state governors, their administrations, and most all of their legislative bodies are in violation of their oaths to the Constitution…well beyond lip service. God, through us, will hold every last one of them accountable via our 1st Amendment Right to Petition (Sec. 3 of 14th Amendment). Amen? So, dear friends, that is the plan. God will provide the laborers on the wall. Please contact me to learn more about our petition effort led by one of the greatest Constitutional scholars in these United States. Remember brothers and sisters…the forty days is about repentance and humility…self-denial.

Jesus Christ had no sin to deny, no wrong self to deny; He had only a Holy Self. It was that Self He denied all the time, and it was that Self that Satan tried to make Him obey. What could be holier than the will of the holy Son of God? and yet all through He said, “not what I will, but as You will.” It was the denying of His holy Self that made the marvelous beauty of our Lord’s life. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Beauty of Self-Denial

Human liberty can only exist or be restored with an accurate perception of reality. Mind-distorting lies by government and external authority must be exposed. To do otherwise is to keep us dependent on an ivory tower mysticism based on lies and the duplicity of elitists and bureaucrats. ~ Bob Livingston

Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible. And fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses. ~ Nehemiah 4:14

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Phinehas & Our Color Revolution

Posted on February 1, 2026 by Chip Murray

Have a little zeal with your coffee Christian!

And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand; And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. ~ Numbers 25:7-8

Truly, as the Good Book says, there is nothing new under the sun. One might argue that the current color revolution taking place on American soil has roots tracing back to the Numbers 25:6-18 children of Israel. A “color revolution” (sometimes called a “soft coup” or “regime-change operation by non-kinetic means”) is a modern form of orchestrated political upheaval designed to replace an existing government without traditional military invasion or civil war.

A military style color revolution regime change operation is taking place on U.S. soil, right in front of us, in real time. Color revolutions, often characterized by mass protests and violent riots leading to regime changes, have been linked to U.S. foreign policy tools like USAID, the NED, and the CIA, which channel taxpayer dollars through non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to promote “democracy” abroad…Domestically, similar dynamics are in play, with USAID and federal funds reportedly supporting progressive NGOs tied to Democratic causes and Soros, influencing U.S. protests and policy advocacy. These grants for “social justice” initiatives are actually fueling division, using taxpayer dollars via “shady” networks to lobby for far-left communist reforms. All in an attempt to install globalist communist regimes, not just in the U.S. but abroad. It’s all connected and is the blueprint running in multiple countries worldwide, which is also tied to the global election fraud cartel which is just another arm of this entire operation. Now, it’s time to shut it all down. ~ Gen. Mike Flynn, Former U.S. National Security Advisor

Sounds like a plan General!

Here’s what Peter Ruckman has to say on the zeal of Phinehas in his (25:8) notes: Another one of those startling references that makes the Author of the Bible “unfit” for 21st Century “modern man.” Modern man will not tolerate a God of love (“God is love”) who would reward a man for doing what Phinehas did, by making an everlasting covenant with him (vs. 13 cf. Psa. 106:30-31).

It’s still the same old story, a fight for love and glory some 3,426 years later. God’s love and glory, or man’s? God’s law, or man’s law? The actions of Phinehas seem cruel and barbaric because we’ve allowed the John 8:44 father of lies to reshape our lens and replace the worldview that made America great to begin with. The zeal of Phinehas was forged in faith. He KNEW God’s laws were a reflection of the Father’s love for his children. I will tell you now with absolute certainty, that if the spirit of Phinehas was alive and well in the heart of man here in America in 1963 and 1973, we would not be teetering at deaths door, and on the eve of our destruction. In fact, truth-seeker James O’Keefe just reported the opposite spirit to be alive and well from ground zero of our own color revolution, while ole Phinehas seems to have pulled a Rip Van Winkle 75-year nap on us: This is a hard pill for you to swallow but these MN agitators possess a fiercer faith in their cause than many Christians show in Christ, a faith proved not by words but by readiness to act, to sacrifice, to endure. I witnessed it.

This fight will not be won in the flesh. Which is why the enemy is doing all in his power to draw us there. No, brothers and sisters, He came down here 👇🏼to teach us how to fight up there 👆. The battles won up 👆 manifest as victories down 👇🏼Amen? Remember the Luke 10:19 power He gave us and put it to work. Very simple. Engage the enemy…just as Christ did in Luke 4:1-13. Resist the James 4:7 devil and he will flee…I am here to tell you! Just the other day the devil spirit came at me in the flesh…I countered in the Spirit:

I know the reason that you talk behind my back

I used to be among the crowd you’re in with

Do you take me for such a fool to think I’d make contact

With the one who tries to hide what he don’t know to begin with?

That was all it took to fulfill His James 4:7 promise! The enemy knows he has no power against us when we are in Him! Did you know that 4th Street lyric above is from Dylan’s Positively 4th Street, is in Deluth, MN? I didn’t either, until brother Andrew pointed it out to me yesterday. Our Abba Father has given us EVERYTHING we need, and so much more. The time to put it to work is HERE and NOW! As sister Jenni reminds us by singling out the following from our Pastor Steve’s devotional this morning:

Be not ye afraid of them: remember the Lord, which is great and terrible. And fight for your brethren, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses. ~ Nehemiah 4:14

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ HELLthcare Or GODcare?

Posted on January 25, 2026 by Chip Murray
BROUGHT TO YOU BY MONSTERS IN LAB COATS AND THEIR PHARMAKEIA MASTERS!

I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord. I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities; And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room. Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly. For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed. I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me. I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life. But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God. ~ Psalm 31:6-14

In the Tune-up before last, “Good Men,” I shared the conversation I had the previous Friday with a chiropractor discussing the dark underbelly of the healthcare industrial complex. Yesterday I had a very similar conversation with my dentist during an emergency visit to fix a loose implant. “I made some pretty bad mistakes,” he confessed, referring to his compliance with tyrannical mandates foisted on the American people in the darkest hour of our 250 years of existence by the same evil that drove Jesus into a frenzy of righteous rage in Mark 11:15…the deification of commercial enterprise.

“Do not make my Father’s house a house of merchandise!”—the deification of commercial enterprise. Everything of the nature of wrong must go when Jesus Christ begins to cleanse His Father’s House.   (Servant as Lord) ~ Oswald Chambers, Passionate Zeal

It is the very same evil behind the crocheting of our skies with crisscross patterns of toxic chemtrails laced with barium, aluminum, radioactive thorium and cesium, ethylene dibromide, and other poisons over the past several days…just in time to be delivered into our waterways, aquifers, and farmlands by the record snowstorm about to hit! It ALL ties together brothers and sisters.

I read Psalm 31:6-14 this week, and for the very first time I felt as if I were standing in the shoes of the Psalm-writer. Those of us who refused to take communion with the Pied Piper of the lying vanities and his many followers became pariah in our own homes, communities, and workplaces. While we feel some degree of vindication five years later, justice for the greatest crime against humanity ever perpetrated on the world seems oceans away. Why? Because we were flying blind then, and with the one cultural institution in America responsible for moral vision 100% captured, we are heading straight into the perfect storm…blind as a bat! By design…  

The CIA/Church In America behind the perversion of modern Christianity: The Jay Dyer Archive

Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed. For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness. ~ Psalm 84:9-10

He gave us the Luke 10:19 authority to tread on serpents and scorpions. He gave us the James 4:7 power to resist the very devil I just revealed to you. He gave us the Colossians 2:15 triumph over the principalities and powers. He gave us the 2 Timothy 1:7 ability to conquer fear. And, He gave us the greatest weapon of all to overcome the enemy…the Revelation 12:11 blood of the lamb! What will you do with it Christian? Are you anointed? Or will you remain comfortably numb and sound asleep in this hour of hours? Continue to slumber your way into HELLthcare, or join with us in His courts and under His wings in the large room of GODcare.

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ “Wonders of Old”

Posted on January 18, 2026 by Chip Murray

Bring Down The Fire!

I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember the wonders of old…They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law. And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them.~ Psalm 77:11, 78:10-11   

What a difference a chapter makes! From confidence that bears repeating to breaking the deal, abandoning the walk, and dismissing His works and wonders. Time and time again, age after age…it really is the same old story. THE most amazing love story of all time, for those with ears to hear, eyes to see, and the faith and courage to see a thing through. What did we learn about ourselves during COVID? That most of us lack every quality I just mentioned. We live in a culture that sees truth as an impediment, and comfort and consumption as everything. To an outsider it must appear that we’ve developed an insatiable appetite for lies…classic Stockholm Syndrome. NEWSFLASH…we’ve been here before.

Jamie Walden asks his audience in the Suck it Up Buttercup clip below, “Do you believe you have the power to call down fire from the LORD?” I recently posted Peter Ruckman’s notes on Leviticus 9:24 and 10:1 ~ This innocent little incident that took place one time out on the backside of a desert turns out to be the foundation for both Advents, before and after. Undoubtedly, this is what happened in Genesis 4:4 when Abel’s offering was accepted. Cain saw it accepted (Eph. 1:6) and saw his rejected. So it became the test for false prophets (1 Kings 18:24) when the same thing happened to four hundred religious leaders in the ecumenical counsel who were slain by Elijah (1 Kings 18:38-40). For this reason, it is exactly the same phenomenon that will take place when the False Prophet is “selling the world” on the “son of perdition” (Rev. 13:12-16). It also identifies both of the two witnesses that show up in the Tribulation (Rev. 11:5). They speak and the fire comes down. It is illustrated in 2 Kings 1:10-14. Thus, this verse becomes almost a “fundamental of the faith”—both faiths in both Testaments. (10:1) “Stange fire” is immediately recognized, because the right fire was in the verse right before it (Lev. 9:24).

Our churches, infiltrated and overrun by demonic and unclean spirits, have fed their flocks spiritual sedatives in place of the Spiritual armor they will need for what is coming.

Carelessness in spiritual matters is a crime. ~ Oswald Chambers, Approved Unto God

Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. ~ Revelation 2:20

We are starting a 12-week Derek Prince course on Demons and Demonology this coming Tuesday for those who wish to Destroy Jezebel! (Contact me if interested)

We are never the same after listening to the truth; we may forget it, but we will meet it again. Sow the Word of God, and everyone who listens will get to God. If you sow vows, resolutions, aspirations, emotions, you will reap nothing but exhaustion: “And you shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it” (Lev. 26:16); but sow the Word of God, and as sure as God is God, it will bring forth fruit….A man may not grasp all that is said, but something in him is intuitively held by it. See that you sow the real seed of the Word of God, and then leave it alone. ~ Oswald Chambers, Sow the Real Seed

Suck It Up Buttercup: Get In The Fight! ~ Jamie Walden

Prophecy Is Being Fulfilled! Time to Rise & Shine! Amen? BRING DOWN THE FIRE!

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. ~ Matthew 5:13-16

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ “Good Men”

Posted on January 11, 2026 by Chip Murray

Our Model!

The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. ~ Proverbs 14:14, James 4:8

I had a very interesting “healthcare” conversation with a chiropractor this past Friday that provided the seed for today’s message. God has blessed me over the course of these past several weeks to find natural remedy for a Sciatica-like flare-up that struck just before Christmas. We agreed that the healthcare industrial complex had no interest in making us healthy, but profited tremendously by making us sick and keeping us that way…seeing our children as their cash cows. We both praised God for RFK Jr.! Then I asked the question, “How do these men live with themselves?” 2020 was the inflection point. They all knew…the doctors, the pharmacists, the politicians, the corporate boards, and the churches. They all knew and played along!

And then yesterday I came across this amazing insight from a woman on why “most women aren’t ready or prepared for dealing with good men.” WOW! “Good men don’t bend, they build.” The men she is describing have all but disappeared. Have they been ground down by the raging feminists who’ve all but replaced the good women in our society? And hours later, right on cue, I come across this very confused fellow from Warwick who sees conservative-leaning Americans as a “Clown Posse”. By the way, if you listen to the insightful woman describing good men, and you substitute Christians for women, and pastors for men, you will find yourself at the Ground Zero of America’s demise! It brought this Proverb instantly to mind: When the wicked rise, men hide themselves: but when they perish, the righteous increase. ~ Proverbs 28:28

Say and think what you will about President Trump; pompous yes, arrogant yes, brash yes, but wicked? Absolutely not! The six that preceded him? Wicked to their core, and we are learning more and more each and every day just how wicked they all were. I saw the 2nd half of Proverbs 28:28 before COVID! That January in a conversation with my friend Marucia, HE showed me When the World Turns Around! But back to the church for a moment. This Silence on Sin: How Satan Has Entered The Church, has occurred because weak and spinless men replaced good men. And if this is not corrected, this Her Parents Tried To Kill Her For Leaving Islam, will replace our churches!

Our natural remedy! God has given us EVERYTHING we need to heal our land, after our humble and heart-felt 2 Chronicles 7:14 Repentance. The time for good men to come together and build is now! Amen?

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ “Madness” Before the “Dare”

Posted on January 4, 2026 by Chip Murray

Though He slay me, I will sing of His glory!

When the soul is perplexed—and it certainly will be if we are going on with God, because we are a mark for Satan—and the sudden onslaught comes, as it did in the life of Job, we cry, “Heal me because of my pain,” but there is no answer. Then we cry, “Heal me, not because I am in pain, but because my soul is perplexed: I cannot see my way out of it or why this thing should be”; still no answer; then at last we cry, “Heal me, O Lord, not because of my pain, nor because my soul is sick, but for Your mercies’ sake.” Then we have the answer. “The Lord has heard my supplication.” ~ Oswald Chambers, Mercy’s Healing

A good shepherd knows his flock, he sees where they are in their journey, and he feeds each to their own spiritual needs as only he can. My pastor sent me this amazing story of hymn-writer Isaac Watts which I woke up to at 4am Friday morning: Isaac Watts: The Broken Man Who Taught the Church to Sing

Interestingly, in the very same morning I had breakfast with a new friend God has placed in my life. Ivan had called the night before and needed to talk. He shared his life story, had me listen to Ernesto’s song Tears & Talents, looked me in the eye and said, “That’s my life!” Even more interestingly, God had me forward the Isaac Watts story to Ivan hours before our breakfast meeting. Now for the third part of today’s message, provided in the MAX section of yesterday’s Psalm & Proverb a Day; a picture of the two greatest shepherds the world will ever know in this, the church age:

MAX ~ IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS ~ 1 Samuel 22:2 David was anointed to be king (1 Sam. 16:12-13) as Jesus Christ was in Matthew 3 and Luke 3, although both of them were absent from the throne while a usurper ruled (Luke 4:6; 2 Cor. 4:4). Both were in rejection, waiting to take their rightful place on the throne. In David’s interim, the only people who come to him (as a type of Christ) are those who are in “distress,” in “debt,” or “discontented.” …This verse is a picture of the Church Age. ~ Dr. Peter Ruckman…heart to heart…same as it ever was! 🙏♥️🙏

So, please allow me to unwrap these three parts. At 4min 17sec into the Isaac Watts story, the narrator describes the madness young Isaac felt as the pre-human-hymn church sang only the Psalms, without heart, without rhythm, and without joy, droning on like a funeral dirge…until he couldn’t stand it anymore. One day he shares this madness with his Father who then dares him to come up with something better. The rest, as they say, is history! Has your Father ever dared you? Immediately after watching Isaac’s story, I texted my pastor, “I know you know how I could relate to his “madness” before the Father’s dare!” Watching God’s people for the past ten years, with ALL that God has given them, equipped them and blessed them with, do absolutely nothing with the authority and power God has given them. But instead, cower to the usurper from the silence of their hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil coffin. Tears & Talents… All emotion, feel-good, tear-jerking Godless secular snare…in the sharpest contrast to the life of Isaac Watts, who had more reason than any of us reading these words to reject God, but chose instead to transform the Christian world for the glory of God! The sand is running low in the hourglass my friends…

I’ve seen the most heart-wrenching thing of all, the Lord showing me his people literally dropping dead. Suddenly, in an instant, unexpectantly. Literally dropping dead. It is among those who self-justify, in particular, using the name of Jesus to openly seek to shut down the very move of Jesus. Those who silence the move of God, and they assault the servants of God. The schemers and the blasphemers, the hypocrites and villainous men, the liars and the men who are truly twisted, men and women, literally dropping dead…whosoever sows to please the flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction (Galatians 6:8)…Wash your hands you sinners. Purify your hearts you double-minded church! ~  Jamie Walden  Is the Church Ready for God’s Judgment?

God has a plan church. The question is, what part will you play? What memory will you leave?
