The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ “What’s Your Price?”

Posted on October 5, 2025 by Chip Murray

The ONLY way to navigate what lies ahead…

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. ~ Acts 20:28

Overseers who desert their post for the far less risky and way more profitable role of undertaker, yet still dare to wear the uniform of overseer, are guilty of stolen valor…the most shameless and costly treachery of all. And James O’Keefe just gave us the million-dollar question to expose the treacherous tares that have crippled and are crippling the body of Christ.

What’s your price? Is it $10 million, is it $20 million, is it $100 million? Because if your price is not your life, then you are for sale…so then, if you are going to be a truth-teller, your price has to be your life…I can’t surround myself with people whose price is not their life. ~ O’Keefe at Socrates in the City

So, here we are twenty-five days after the assassination of the one truth-teller who has done more to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the truth-starved youth of America than all church pastors combined, while the American church, blinded by the self-interest and need for survival of the tares over the call to feed the church of God, seems as lost and irrelevant as the Democrat party! The Presbyterian Church of Goshen, NY made it their point to disassociate themselves from the prayer vigil held for Charlie Kirk just outside their doors on September 15th.

Contrast that sad fact with…

We are apt to look to look upon the blood of Jesus Christ as a magic-working power instead of its being the very life of the Son of God poured out forth for men. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Blood of Christ

Of course He has me in the book of Daniel feeding me the conviction of faith through Mishak Shadrach & Abednego answering O’Keefe’s question, ready to pay with their life in the furnace, just as Daniel with his life in the lion’s den, and today’s MAX ~ BE WILLING TO STAND UP ~ Imagine the courage it took for one solitary man to pray for judgment on his own people, confront a wicked king, then stand before hundreds of false (overseers) and challenge their piety! And today’s Oswald Chambers ~ MADE INTO BREAD FOR OTHERS ~ A mother lays down her life for her child and her home, but there is nothing advertised in her doing it…the stuff of our lives, not simply of our talk, is to be the nutriment of those who know us.   (Love of God)

There is no possible way for a good man to consume God’s Word and not hear God speaking directly to him…

The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame. ~ Proverbs 29:15 The church has become “a child left to himself’!

If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: ~ 1 John 1:6 Clarence Thomas, ready to pay with his life, is poised with his SCOTUS colleagues to reverse the same-sex-marriage ruling. Contenders vs Pious Pretenders:  Legal Precedents

Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety. ~ Proverbs 11:14

Our shepherds, with precious few exceptions, provide little to no counsel where counsel is needed most. Instead, they read the Word of God with the same investment of themselves I would liken to parents reading fairytales to their children to put them to sleep at night. Speaking of fairytales, the beauty of fairytales read to us when I was a child is that they were anchored in truthful and moral lessons. Satan introduced their replacement in a diabolically clever Tower of Babel inversion we know as the language of Political Correctness…spoken more fluently than our native tongue in most every church today!

In closing, Pastor Matt Trewhella askes the perfect tandem question to James O’Keefe’s question, “WHERE ARE THE MEN?”

I can 100% promise you this, if Christian men and church leaders don’t find their spine soon, the Church of America will become the nightmare that is the Church of England! ~  Fallen Angels Across The Pond!

“What does this tell us as Christians to do?” Now Is Not The Time For Fear!

I am sorry to hurl so much content at you today, but trust me, you will be blessed if you make time to sort through, meditate and pray on it. The one thing the brother in the above clip urges is for us to “consume” God’s Holy Word. It is the ONLY way to be able to navigate what lies ahead of us.

Finally, as Tucker Carlson points out in this last “cherry on top” piece today, the entire world is talking about ISRAEL! I encourage you to hear him out as he points out the four things we need as Americans to have the conversation we ALL need to have about Israel:

  1. Global Perspective
  2. Self-Respect
  3. Restored “value” of citizenship
  4. Accurate Theology

Blackmail, Bribes, and Fear

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ The Evil One

Posted on September 28, 2025 by Chip Murray

He attacks in two forms; Roaring Lion & Subtle Serpent

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: ~ 1 Peter 5:8

From yesterday’s and today’s back-to-back Oswald Chambers on our suffering as a requirement for our deliverance…from the evil one:

The suffering of the sanctified are caused by the growing into the idea of the will of God…The child as it develops, suffers; it is a false mercy that spares a child any requirements of its nature to complete the full stature of manhood, and it is a false mercy that spares the sanctified child of God any of the requirements of its nature to complete “the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.” God does not deal with Satan direct, man must deal with Satan because man is responsible for his introduction.

It’s no accident that the generation that spared the rod and replaced it with “quiet time,” yielded the generation that is unable to discern man from woman, and right from wrong. It was all by design. But how and why? What critical guard was let down in our society to allow such evil in?

Pray for September 10th to be the Turning Point this nation SO desperately needs…

“Perhaps most troubling was the tepid response from many American churches to Kirk’s assassination. While some pastors boldly honored this Christian martyr, others remained silent, apparently more concerned about splitting their congregations than proclaiming truth. Miles challenges this cowardice: “Nothing irritated Charlie more than trembling and weak pastors.” The early church celebrated their martyrs—Stephen, James, Peter, and Paul. Can we imagine the apostolic church ignoring such sacrifices? Yet many modern pastors chose comfort over courage when their brother in Christ was murdered for the gospel.” ~ Charlie Kirk Martyrdom: A Wake-Up Call for the American Church

“So, the Gospel is going everywhere except the church!” ~ Mark Driscoll

And this morning a brother who writes from behind a pseudonym posted these words from Charles Spurgeon on the Project Civica prayer thread, Believer, what has happened to the Church? Are we not the body of Christ?…Have we become so rich that we no longer need Him, the One whose body we compromise (Rev. 3:17)? The Church has been weakened by “churchianity,” which is all show and no go. We are, at large, become lukewarm and ready to be spit out of His mouth (Rev. 3:16). We have pushed Christ out and invited the world in.

Christ began and ended His earthly mission leading us by the example of His suffering. At the beginning after 40 days of prayer and fasting, which few if any of us bother to do, he resisted the three temptations by applying Himself, heart and soul, to the Spirit of the Father…as we choose instead to apply our time and energy to the internet of things, from the comfort of our living room…courtesy of the evil one. He gave us the way out on Calvary. Who will stand in the gap to Protect Our Kids, or Train Them Up (Prov. 22:6) for Him, in this hour? A brother posts on FB, “Men’s retreat. Looking forward to this weekend. Can’t wait to see what the Lord has to say.”

You can’t make this stuff up…

Please join us every morning at 8:30am EST for the “Charlie Prayer”. September 10, 2025, America’s TURNING POINT! The day America turned from the grip of Satan to the LOVE of Jesus. #PrayItSo! 🙏♥️🙏

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ “My Anchor Holds Within the Veil”

Posted on September 21, 2025 by Chip Murray

Remnant Anchor & Chain!

Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil. ~ Hebrews 6:19

At a birthday celebration yesterday in Manhattan, a dear friend I’ll call Sister Seer, an attorney, shared an amazing story with a small group of believers gathered there. God gave her the ability to see through the walls of the house in the neighborhood where her daughter was doing a sleepover and showed her the witchcraft that was going on to steal the soul of her daughter. She raced to the house, no, she stormed the house and rescued her daughter. After she had finished, I said, “This is happening everywhere!” She shared this older story with us after explaining how God had given her a “save all the children” message in the middle of a court case recently

What’s crazy, no, what’s supernaturally explainable, is that Sister Seer and I received our “Save The Children” message around the same exact time! In fact, Orange Strong created two new committees as a direct result; Protect Our Kids, and Train Them Up (Proverbs 22:6). We have two of our organization members who just completed six days of ARC (Americans for Rescue of Children) training, and I’m reasonably certain they will confirm that the attempted spiritual kidnapping Sister Seer successfully interdicted, is a key component in the greatest and most prolific evil of our time, child-sex-trafficking.

You’re probably wondering how I am going to tie this all to hope, anchors, and veils. Watch this! “They” murdered Charlie Kirk on September 10th. If you believe “they” who are selling you their whodunnit narrative, then I have a bridge to sell you. On September 15 “We” held a beautiful candlelight vigil in Goshen, while “they,” speaking from the totally captured Goshen Presbyterian Church, disassociated themselves from the vigil.

The Contenders
The Pretenders

I am eternally grateful to God for my pastor, Steve Offringa, who gifted me the book Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare, from whence he describes the anchor of our soul above, and the hidden reef below…

I think that the Christian who knows orthodox theology but who does not really believe is responsible for more unfaithfulness to God than a person who believes heresies. In other words, I am afraid that a person who earnestly believes an error has a less harmful influence on others than a person who holds the truth with indifference and with secret unbelief.  The latter is tolerated in godly company, for he professes to be a believer (The hidden reefs in Jude) and he is therefore able to cause harm within the body of Christ. ~ Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare, To Keep Us Faithful and Useful

Could this be our 2nd Reformation: Nailing the thesis, this time written by the Blood of Christ on the doors of the false and unbelieving churches as their final warning? #PrayItSo! The lyric, “My anchor holds within the veil,” is from the song Cornerstone, one of Pastor Steve’s favorites!

Let the winds blow, and billows roll, Hope is the anchor of my soul, But can I by so slight a tie, An unseen hope on God rely? Steadfast and sure, it cannot fail, it enters deep within the veil, It fastens on a land unknown, And moors me to my Father’s Throne.

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Interpose Now, Or Tyranny Later!

Posted on September 14, 2025 by Chip Murray

Authors of the Magna Carta ~ May God Help Us Finish What They Started!

EXCEPT the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. ~ Psalm 127:1 (The Word JFK never got to deliver in Dallas) What has changed?

  • In·ter·pose ~
  • 1.place or insert between one thing and another: “he interposed himself between her and the top of the stairs” Similarinsinuate place put
  • 2.intervene between parties: “the legislature interposed to suppress these amusements” Similarintervene intercedestep inmediate

From Pastor Steve’s devotional in preparation for this LORD’S Day:                                           This past Thursday, September the 11th, my heart’s attention was drawn to a devotional entitled “Understanding the Times”, in the current fall edition of the “Days of Praise”, published by the Institute of Creation Research, a solid Biblical ministry!  The theme Scripture was I Chronicles 12:32, which says, “And the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.”  The devotion has much more to clearly say, but I wish to simply emphasize the critical importance of our “understanding of the times” in which we live, according to God’s prophetic Word!  Indeed, my dear brethren, our Savior had much to specifically say about what would precede His glorious return!  Then, in Luke 21:28, He said, “And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”  Any true follower of Christ and believer in the Word of God should not be ignorant of, or indifferent to what is happening right before our eyes!  The prophetic state for His return is rapidly being set, and we as His followers should also have an “understanding of [our] times”, to know what we “ought to do” in this present hour!  By the power of God’s Spirit, are we the witness for Christ that we must be in these last days?  Are we willing to be unashamedly identified with Him, regardless of what the world may say, or what the cost may be?  Our “redemption draweth nigh”!!!

A sister in Christ posted This must stop on her FB page yesterday. My response: It will stop when American Christians stop acting like powerless peasants and reclaim their God-given power and authority as sons and daughters of our One & Only King. 🙏🦅🙏

Charlie Kirk, may he rest in eternal glory with the Father, who knew the season and the ought to do, wanted to be remembered for the Courage of his faith…as I just happened to be in Hebrews 10:1-16 If you have faith, prove it by your life.   (Conformed)

We, on the other hand, have been molded, shaped, and sifted by the world of men into actors in a play we have no control over. We are maneuvered and manipulated through emotion and fear by narratives designed to strip our power and autonomy, eventually collapsing us into a state of total submission. We will believe everything we are fed without question.

How can a book about a man’s assassination be published the day before it happens?

I was encouraged by this story the other day. Croton on Hudson flag dispute Trump Flag Dispute Ends After Village Backs Off!

But we have such a long way to go…

Back when you were growing up, you may remember lazy Saturdays at the library with a kind but stern librarian. She would fill your mind with classics like Pat the Bunny and The Little Engine That Could. And eventually you got old enough to roam by yourself and discover adventures like the Three Musketeers, Treasure Island and Charlotte’s Web. But today, all that has changed. The president of the American Library Association (ALA) is a self-described “Marxist lesbian.” Radical librarians call Adventure of Huckleberry Finn and To Kill a Mockingbird “racist.” They’ve stripped Laura Ingalls Wilder’s name from a prestigious book award because of her “problematic” Little House series. And they bring men in wearing full makeup, dresses, and high heels for “Drag Queen Story Hours” where books like these are read to children of all ages… ~ Kirk Cameron, Brave Books Please support Brave Books!

And…

The rule of law is crumbling. As America collapses because it has spurned the law of God as the rule of law, we will be presented with an opportunity when godly lesser magistrates will need to stand in the gap. They will need to interpose for the sake of the rule of law, for the sake of the people they represent, and defy bad law. They will be accused by the tyrant higher authority of anarchy and destroying the rule of law, but in reality, they are the ones defending it…The role of the people in applying the lesser magistrate doctrine is to remonstrate before the lesser magistrate, and rally behind him when he takes a stand. The lesser magistrates often will not act until the people plead their case, and the magistrates are assured of their support. ~ Matt Trewhella, The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates, A Summary

As His Word tells us…

Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. ~ Hebrews 11:25

Sage post-Charlie Kirk assassination advice from Michael Yon… Cathedral of Assassination

And more media manipulation…

King of the Apocalypse…MSNBC uses the wife and son of Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes to demonize the patriot movement in new documentary! Classic Projecting & Gas-lighting!

The snare of our expectation, which bogs us down in the flesh, operates in both directions; good (Golden Age/Rapture) and evil (One World Order/Tyranny). Not only is it lethal in a self-fulfilling way, we are actually limiting God by a faith that does not align with our actions. We desperately need a spiritually charged supernatural conversion. We are actors in God’s play, not man’s. PLEASE, I’m urging each and every one of you to order a copy of Matt Trewhella’s The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates to better learn your role, and better understand your part, because I can promise you without a shred of doubt, if we don’t follow the example of Charlie Kirk and the Trump Flag Man in Cornwall-on-Hudson to stand in the gap via Interposition using our 1st Amendment Right to redress for grievances today, we will guarantee a future of tyranny and enslavement for the children of tomorrow! www.defytyrants.com

Please join us every morning at 8:30am EST for the “Charlie Prayer”. September 10, 2025, America’s TURNING POINT! The day America turned from the grip of Satan to the LOVE of Jesus. #PrayItSo! 🙏♥️🙏

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Supernaturally Speaking

Posted on September 7, 2025 by Chip Murray

Death of the Supernatural Church Parallels “Growing Hopelessness of America’s Youth”

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. ~ Matthew 7:23

Brother Martin Grifone, in his most recent Crossover Anytime Ministries newsletter entitled, The Church Of Nice, he offers we Christians some very timely and sage advice: “So, examine yourself and decide if you are a genuine Christian or just a member of the ‘Church of Nice’ (Think Rev. 3:15-16) to ease your conscience, have somewhere to go on Sundays, or find people like yourself there!” Before you decide, I urge you to watch this powerful wake-up call from veteran journalist Lara Logan, and then consider the origin of pharmakeia:  Sorcery, witchcraft, and connect the dots to the fiendish attacks on our courageous HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. by pharmakeia’s greatest beneficiaries in the U.S. Senate this week…for his fight to defend and protect their #1 target, our children!!!

At some point one has to wonder, how it is that those of us the most equipped (Luke 10:19, Ephesians 6:10-20, Colossians 2:15, 2 Timothy 1:7, James 4:7, Revelation 12:11) do the very least to face the beast! Jude tried to warn us in 1:3-4 of his epistle: Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort [you] that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares…

Supernaturally speaking, they that crept in to turn our nation’s seminaries into spiritual cemeteries and cut out the supernatural tongue from all who passed through the unawares, leaving America spiritually blind, deaf, and dumb in the darkest hour of our 250 years!

This engineered decoupling of America from her supernatural roots as a Christian nation has had a crippling effect on the future of our country. The hope of all nations lies in the mental, physical, and spiritual well-being of their children…

Marriage and homeownership were never just personal milestones. They were sovereignty anchors, forms of decentralized power that rooted individuals in community. They were family. They were the means for building personal family wealth and independence. ~ Tom DeWeese,  The Growing Hopelessness of America’s Youth

The supernatural heart of Christianity provides the moral courage which forms the bedrock of The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates: When the higher-ranking civil authority makes unjust or immoral law, policy, or court opinion, the God-given right and duty of the lesser-ranking civil authority is not to obey. ~ Matthew J. Trewhella. I highly recommend this book to EVERY American. You can find it here: www.defytyrants.com

The action of the lesser magistrate when faced with an immoral law from a higher magistrate, for example a police officer who prevents a drag queen from corrupting the morals of children, is called interposition. Remonstrance is another great term I learned from reading Matt’s book. The role of We the People is to remonstrate, which means to present strong arguments against an act , measure, or any course of proceedings. This is exactly what the Jewish people successfully accomplished by convincing Roman General Petronius with their moral argument to interpose …to stand in the gap between them and the evil Emperor Caligula to prevent the defilement of their temple.

On the other hand, we Americans failed in our duty to remonstrate in support of Judge Roy Moore, the Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. In August of 2001 he had a monument of the Ten Commandments placed in the rotunda of the state judicial building. The ACLU decried, and the Federal government assailed Judge Moore’s attempt to point to God’s law as the foundation of law in the State of Alabama (and all of Western Civilization). He was defeated because we the people failed to rally behind a courageous lesser magistrate. And it pains me beyond words to contemplate how shamefully low we have fallen ever since. We have devolved into a national abyss of moral cowardice.

There is a great scene from the movie Lawrence of Arabia God put on my heart for this Tune-up. It’s the perfectly and powerfully delivered line by Anthony Quinn playing the part of Auda abu Tayi, “I am a river to my people!” I believe God is turning the tables on the powers that be to become powers no more. And as He does, “We the People will become the river to our magistrates”…for the eternal glory of God!

But first we must reopen the doors that have been shut to keep us in the dark. Tucker & Atheist-turned-Christian Lee Strobel on The Supernatural Realm of Angels & Demons

And then my brothers and sisters, it’s time to let our inner lion loose! Hail the Lion of Judah, Let the Lion Roar!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ From Jezebel to Abigail

Posted on August 31, 2025 by Chip Murray

The Matthew 13:24-30 Tares Among Us…

But while the man 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 13:25-30

The householder’s wheatfield Jesus gave us in this parable represents the Body of Christ. The tares represent the infiltrating spirits planted by Satan. The householder is God who sees everything. This week’s Psalm & Proverb a Day, specifically Thursday’s which included Maxwell’s MODEL THE WAY ~ Proverbs 29:19 “People are first influenced by what they see,” which is why the majority of our children are not walking with the LORD, triggered the Jezebel spirit in the camp of a brother in the Body. In this same message I wrote, “They saw the Democrat Mayor of Minneapolis reject prayer as he pledged to protect and defend the Assassin Spirit (within the Transgender Community), while the religious leaders stood behind him in stone-faced silence.” The very next day Maxwell gives us the polar opposite of Jezebel in Abigail, IN STEPS A LEADER ~ 1 Samuel 25:32-33 and what Jezebel fears most; the strong Alpha male in David. I pray for my brother to read, understand, and act on today’s message. I should say brothers because as I shared with sister Anita yesterday, this spirit has infiltrated our entire culture, ESPECIALLY our churches!

There is a reason Jezebel killed the prophets. She needed the people Spiritually BLIND. Do you realize one can know his Bible inside and out, up and down and all around, and yet be Spiritually blind? Our God is a jealous God (Exodus 34:14), and Jezebel is the most jealous of all the demonic spirits. Her weapons of choice; emotion and fear. The signs, as clear in the photo above, of her presence and control are many: Sickness, division, failure to confront evil, freak accidents, poor judgement and decision-making, financial woes, legal problems, low energy and expectations, avoidance of civic duty and ZERO leadership desire. In a dream I had Thursday night, I saw a large sign. I’m not sure whether it was on this brother’s home or church, it read, CAN’T! But God…

So, it is not up to the servant to remove the tare. But God in His infinite mercy can awaken those who are lost in the deepest of slumbers. Think of King Theoden’s deliverance! I see Him doing this in THIS very hour in His Body of believers! The Jezebel spirit cannot remain in the Body where it has been seen and called out. It is very much like mold and mildew which requires darkness and Spiritual blindness to thrive. God has given us our Jehu, and He is bringing back His David’s and Abigail’s…for those with eyes to see and ears to hear our Father’s call.

“God has established four realms of government…self-government, family government, church government, and civic government…Each of these governments has positions of authority…In family government, the man is the head of the home (MAJOR Jezebel trigger!).  His wife acts as co-regent…” ~ Pastor Matt Trewhella, The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ The Peter Principle

Posted on August 24, 2025 by Chip Murray

The Principle Needed In The Church Today! Bold As A Lion!!

The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion. ~ Proverbs 28:1

The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to “a level of respective incompetence”: ~ Wikipedia

The Laurence J. Peter Principle has a death grip/stranglehold on the church today. I much prefer the Peter Ruckman Principle, if I may be so bold…

(28:1) Paul’s prayer for himself (Eph. 6:18-19) and a description of the apostles’ conduct (Acts 4:13). Most Christians in America are “chicken-livered”—yellow (see note on Prov. 24:10). As “the days of Lot” come upon us (Luke 17:28), the sodomites now have some control over police forces, legislation, Senators, Mayors, and Governors. If the “righteous” aren’t as “bold” as they are, faggots and butches will eventually take over the government; they did in Greece. God buried Greece, and it has never been a fifth-rate world power since A.D. 400. ~ Dr. Peter Ruckman, The Ruckman Reference Bible

In 1873, Charles Finney named the crisis plainly: when a nation’s conscience decays, the pulpit is responsible. When the church goes quiet, darkness advances. Today we face the same test around eugenics and the sanctity of life. Designer-baby marketing, embryo scoring, and “genetic optimization” all parade as progress. However, these trends reveal something deeper: a seared public conscience. PLEASE LISTEN TO ALBERT MOHLER BELOW:
The Making of ‘Super Babies’ (10:06) Some of the Eugenics Horrors of the 20th Century are Coming to Life in Silicon Valley ~ The Pulpit Is Responsible – Eugenics Is Back, and Your Silence Is Deadly

Samuel Adams, the “Father of the American Revolution,” believed liberty was not a favor granted by kings but a gift from Almighty God. He organized the Sons of Liberty, opposed oppressive taxation, and boldly pressed for independence before most dared to whisper it. He later signed both the Declaration of Independence and the Articles of Confederation, helping craft the Massachusetts Constitution and serving as governor. His legacy is not only one of resistance but of rebuilding—charting a course from chaos to constitutional order. ~ Samuel Adams and Today’s Constitutional Leadership: Returning America to Her Moorings

NEWS FLASH…God will NEVER bless a nation of sheeple crippled by a decadent and seared public conscience as the direct result of pulpits filled by John 10:13 hirelings who have led their flocks away from the light of truth of their civic duty, to dance in the dark of Spiritless encounters!

Conscience is that innate faculty in a man’s spirit that attaches itself to the highest the man knows, whether he be an atheist or a Christian. The highest the Christian knows is God: the highest the atheist knows is his Principles.   (Phil. Sin)  The discipline of a worker is not in order to develop his own life, but for the purpose of his Commander…Our Lord Himself is the example of a disciplined life…He submitted His intelligence to His Father’s word, and He worked the works of God because He steadily submitted His will to His Father’s will; and as the Master, so is the disciple.   (Approved) ~ Oswald Chambers, A Pure Conscience, and A Loyal Soldier

I cannot speak for parts of the country where I do not live, but I can tell you from my personal experience, with precious few exceptions, that not only are the pulpits in the Mid-Hudson region of New York guilty of quenching the Holy Spirit (Revival 2023); they are guilty of a double insult: Not only do they insult the intelligence of the “Loyal Soldier”…they insult the Intelligence of the God he serves.

Pastor Amanchukwu, demonstrating the Peter Ruckman Principle, sends a powerful message to America’s churchmen… “He says EVERYTHING that needs to be said!”

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Get Naked!

Posted on August 17, 2025 by Chip Murray

Give Thyself Wholly…

Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. Take heed unto thy self, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shall save thyself, and them that hear thee. ~ 1 Timothy 4:15-16

I have had a number of dreams lately, most recently last night, where I am bare-ass naked in very public places. And this morning it dawned on me why. Over the past several weeks, most recently being yesterday, I have observed people who are shaping and creating their future from the pallet of expectation. And where do our expectations come from? They can only come from our past, and for many of us, myself included, that can be a pretty ugly and pain-filled pallet…childhood wounds…father wounds, etc. This is why our Father in heaven wants us to be as little children (Mark 10:15), unstained by the past, and unburdened by doubt, anxiety, and expectation of the future…completely and wondrously available to the NOW!

“Oh well, I will think about these things when I have time.” The only time you will have is the day after you are dead, and that will be eternity. An hour, or half an hour, of daily attention to, and meditation on our own spiritual life is the secret of progress.   (Moral Found.) ~ Oswald Chambers, The Harness of Meditation

If the Father wants us as children, what does the enemy that preys on children want us as? He wants and needs us so fully clothed in our expectations, anxieties, doubts, and fears, that we are unable to see and/or believe what he is doing to them right in front of us in the now!

We have another, and in my estimation, equally serious problem. Our Father wants us as we came into this world (Exactly as He made His grand entrance), but in such condition we are powerless against the enemy…

You have said, “What can I do?” But when Christ by His Spirit grips you, what can you not do? Truly you may adopt Paul’s language and say, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” (Phil. 4:13)…There are many who appear to be very mighty in prayer, wondrous in supplications, but they require God to do what they can do themselves. Therefore, God does nothing at all for them. ~ Charles Spurgeon, Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare, Prayer Makes Us Useful

A recent survey of our members (patriots looking for work) resulted in the formation of four committees: Protect Our Kids, Train Them Up (Proverbs 22:6), Election Integrity, and Constitutional Action…God’s perfect timing for those fresh from their morning meditation, empowered by God, and looking to make themselves useful! Imagine the world you and I could create…

We’re all tied to the same old failings, finding shelter in the things we know. We’re all dirty like corrupted small towns, we’ll bring our troubles and Lay ‘Em Down!

Imagine…When He returns, it will be in the NOW…what if we’re not there? The one and only time in my life I was ever arrested was for skinny-dipping in Texas. #TrustInHim! #GetNaked!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Redeeming the Time

Posted on August 10, 2025 by Chip Murray

Behold, I give unto you the power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. ~ Luke 10:19

Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. ~ Ephesians 5:16

With all possible care redeeming the time – Saving all you can for the best purposes; buying every possible moment out of the hands of sin and Satan; out of the hands of sloth, ease, pleasure, worldly business; the more diligently, because the present are evil days, days of the grossest ignorance, immorality, and profaneness. ~ KingJamesBibleOnline.org

There are no truer words for this moment in time, for each and every one of us, than those of Paul to the Ephesians in 5:16. On Sunday June 1st the CLOTH was twenty minutes into prayer when God interrupted, “WHAT ABOUT MY CHILDREN???” For the remainder of the meeting, we interceded vigorously and intensely for children, the #1 target of evil in our time. From that moment until today, God has answered our prayer through a rising stream of connections and revelations, while He is devastating principalities and powers (Colossians 2:15) in high places (Ephesians 6:12). There has never been a question to my mind about God doing His part. The #1 question God has put on my heart this day; how do you and I square with 5:16? What are we doing about the most pressing issue on God’s heart as expressed to us so clearly on June 1st?

I asked this question to a group of pastors this past week, “How can we expect God’s blessings until we get serious about protecting His children?” And to a group of Christian friends, “Will our Proverbs 24:12 Abba Father accept ‘We knew not’?” If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not, doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall he not render to every man according to his works?   

From a good shepherd who has lost 90% of his pastoral friends for exposing the most evil player behind it all…

“Evil people have an edge on normal people because evil has a unique genius…people without a conscious are free in a sense.” ~ Pastor Chuck Baldwin

You and I alone are no match, but God…

“The culture will absorb you. It will pull you under unless you are fueled…where are you rooted?” ~ You will be absorbed, unless…

The enemy does not possess our Father’s Proverbs 24:12 ability. BUT, he sees and smells fear. The fear of confrontation. The fear of speaking truth to the dark power. The fear of showing up and standing up. The fear behind not placing the millstone bumper sticker on our cars.

It is all coming down to the question of what is our fuel, and where are we rooted? Our Abba Father desires nothing more greatly than spending quality time with His children, which means with His Word in our hands, NOT on the internet! Think about 5:16 and your own relationship with your son. Would you rather spend time with a stranger telling you about your son, or having your son make the time to spend with you in person? While the former may feel good, the latter is everything. Amen? It’s time to get 5:16 real, rooted, and fueled!

We must let God lift up our experience to the standard of His word.   (Psy. Redemp.)

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ A Conscious Inheritance

Posted on August 3, 2025 by Chip Murray

If the Cross is not foundational to what you’re selling, I ain’t buying!

“and through that Cross every member of the human race can be reinstated in God’s favor and enter into a conscious inheritance of the atonement.” ~ Oswald Chambers, The Reorganizing of Humanity

It hurts worse than any pain I’ve ever experienced to watch people you love walk away from the One who came into this world to save them. Good people, loving people, intelligent people, embracing the world and all it has to offer, missing Him again, lunging head-first towards the more tangible lure of man’s own self-enlightenment…even as the world we knew is crumbling all around us. Same as it ever was…

From the weeping prophet…

Oh that my head were waters, and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people! Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men. And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me saith the LORD. ~ Jeremiah 9:1-3

We flail away year after year in stubborn fleshy fields of failure, up against the powerful strongholds of spiritual wickedness in high places (Eph. 6:12). Why? Oswald answers: The things that are obscure to the natural man become clear to the mind that sets itself on the things above.     

We may consume all the libraries of the world and what will we have to show but a puffed-up future dust pile? An entire lifetime of learning how to escape an illusion, while building the walls of our eternal prison. He warned us, Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth (Col. 3:2). Did we listen? No, which is why the Devil’s not afraid of a dust-covered Bible. Ruckman’s commentary on Proverbs 27:7 The verse is comparing a man who has all he wants in this life, having no use for the words of God (Psa. 119:103), and a man hungering and thirsting for the words of God so much that he’ll even take them when they are bitter (Matt. 5:6). It seems clear to me that we are nowhere near hungry or thirsty enough…yet.

What made the difference between the bloodbath disaster of the French Revolution, and a rag-tag band of colonial farmers defeating the mightiest army on earth at the time, during the American Revolution? God. I put up a Psalm (heart) and Proverb (wisdom) a Day because it helps us to feel what God feels, and know what God thinks, and I recently listened to a man who claims to have read all the books on all the religions who could not name the four Gospel writers! How in the world can we expect mercy from a God we have so little knowledge of, and have so clearly turned away from? A wonderful Catholic patriot I know sent out a mass email last week demanding the arrests we’ve all been waiting for. I get it, we are all feeling it. BUT, from God’s perspective, do we deserve justice??? If we don’t know His Word, then we can’t hope to know God. But, if we know the 2 Chronicles 19 story of King Jehoshaphat, then we are more able to understand what it takes to obtain God’s mercy and blessings. The same is true of the Judges 7 story of Gideon’s 300, the Joshua 6 walls of Jericho, and the book of Esther, for such a time as this. …oh, I could go on. Pride goeth before destruction (Proverbs 16:18). God’s Word, not mine.

They say people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. No one on this earth is smart, clever, convincing, or charming enough to separate me from the fact that NO ONE has or ever will care more for and about me than the One who gave Himself for me (Gal. 2:20). Choose wisely and consciously my friend. YOUR inheritance is at stake!

NOTE: This morning’s Tune-up is dedicated to my dear friend and brother Richard Orlandi who is facing a very serious health challenge, in fact, the greatest battle of his life. But he is the greatest fighter I know, and with God, and our prayers, ALL things are possible! Amen?
