MY PARADIGM SHIFT

 DEAR READER, particularly those who have been reading my writing for the 10* years this blog has been in existence:

I am making an intentional paradigm shift in my writing that will reflect in my increased understanding in God’s word. The bottom line: I am not God and I cannot save anyone but, I can help a few. 

One of the personal truths I have come to accept about myself is: I have always wanted to be a homemaker, a.k.a. housewife. Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s (1960’s and 1970’s, LOL) I was encouraged to have a career mindset, go to college and become a significant contributor in society; it was not spoken but it was implied. I was influenced, not directly taught, to be dependent on no one, not even God. The results of my direct and indirect growing -up influences was: 2 bad marriages, 2 well paying careers that I did not like and 50 years of anger and frustration; I did not know I was angry or frustrated.

But God! There are always BUT GOD moments in my life since I was about 9 years old when I first accepted Jesus as Lord of my life. Slowly, He brought me out of the world and into His kingdom. Today, I love the Lord with all my heart and soul, I am at peace with my life and in love with an imperfect man who is perfect for me. I am learning to be a submitted domestic wife. 

God called me to write in 1996(7) and later specified that I was a Prophetic Scribe. Church leaders recognized and later I accepted the fact that I was also gifted to teach. I have struggled with what many call my “calling”. To bring clarity between 2020 and 2024 the Spirit of God took me to to Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 11:1-5 and Titus 2:3-5; my assignment to teach women God’s way. 

It has become apparent to me that women who refer to themselves as Christian are out of God’s order and have aligned themselves with the way of the world. I tried gently pointing that out; I have tried sharing what I do; I even have tried to be quiet; like the prophet said, I can’t be silent (Jeremiah 20:9). The past few months I have struggled with what I am to do. This is what I have concluded:

• I am not going to X (tweet) my post
• I am not going to share on Facebook what I write
• I am going to write what I write unrestrained, including not counting the number of words I write.
• I am going to write using as many Bible verses I need to use
• I am not going to worry about how many post I put up that week or that month.

One of the things I have found I like doing is sharing videos from YouTube that emphasize a point or biblical principle, as you may have noticed. In the past I have only used personal experiences because I can talk about me without offending me. Thanks to body cams on police officers and court cases that are videoed I can use the experiences of others; it is a useful tool and I will continue to use them to teach God’s word.

Finally, I do not believe that I am called to teach men (Titus 2:3-5) thus my audience is to women; I understand men may read my words. And because of my pigment and the way that people respond to me, I have Black women in mind when I write. What I write could apply to any believer.

So, what is the shift? From Bing.com -”A paradigm shift is a radical change in how we see and understand something, often triggered by new evidence or insights.” My perspective or insight as it relates to why I write.  Respectfully,  Marsha L.

THE BLACK PSUEDO-CHURCH

 

ADVANCE NOTE: I will try to edit before I post but…

I am watching YouTube, a recommended channel, and 4 minutes in I had to stop and pray! As a person who believes Jesus is the only begotten Son of God the Creator of everything and the Word of God, I could not tolerate what I was hearing. (see video below). The channel is: Caldwell Apolgetics (yes, I gave him a like and subscribed) and the title of the video is: “Kamal Harris Says THIS at a Black Megachurch!” I stopped watching this as she, Harris, was getting on the stage, it’s not a pulpit, to speak because this thought is not about her it is about Black “Christians” and bondage.

I used to be a writer for an on-line newspaper that discussed the mindset of “African-Americans”; I left because I decided to not volunteer my emerging skills in exchange for limited mentorship. The concept of this newspaper / blog was simple” to many Black people have a bondage, a.k.a. slave, mentality resulting in their believing that they cannot succeed because of White people.  Recently I discovered Vince Everett Ellison, he takes the mindset of bondage to another level. 

If you have not viewed the movie; WILL YOU GO TO HELL FOR ME, watch it. 

I struggle with writing because of my passion and the concern that many will be offended by what I write. When a person is offended the tendency is to disregard what is heard, even if it is the truth. I feel the “need” to write to Black women in particular, though I want to write to women in general and specifically Christians thus the concept of my Blog is: Sister Talk. I have come to the conclusion that there is one person I may reach thus, with this post I speak to the one. 

One of the things I notice about the “Black Church” is the number of women who attend regularly. Women are passionate (emotional) and the church leader knows how to appeal to their emotions. This church leader speaks what they want to hear: “Your going to be blessed}; “Your husband is on the way”; “God sees your tears”; “God’s going to turn your mess into a message”; and so forth. In the “Black church” the women can holler, cry and dance (”holy dance”???).  But at the end of the service, after giving their hard earned money they go back to the same.

I am not a history scholar, my understanding of slavery is limited. I do recall (correct me if I am wrong) that on some plantations the master would allow the slave to have free time. During this time they sang and may have shared a word from what was told of them regarding Scripture. We know they sang because the Underground Railroad used some of the songs to let the salves know when there was an  opportunity to runaway. Some took advantage of the opportunity others stayed behind accepting the” roof over their head, the food that went in their belly and the opportunity to worship when he said it was OK to do so. When freedom did come, January 1 1863, some slaves remained on the plantation and began sharecropping. Sharecropping is like living in government housing today. 

In these Black mega-churches and other Black Churches, I suspect, there are people from all walks of life their common denominator is their mindset. No matter what they have, how many of their needs are being met, it is not enough says the their church leader. Confirmation is because they are not as financially stable as their church leader is. Example, the church leader seen on this video, he is doing very well financially and socially. (SIDE NOTE: Does their sacrificial giving have anything to do with his success? I say yes.) 

Overseers were necessary during slavery and I suspect there was someone managing the land-renters during the sharecropping times. Overseer is a biblical position. The position was perverted during the times of slavery and today there are wolves in the “pulpit”. 

Acts 20:28-29 (KJV) 

28  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. 

29  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 

Yes, this is an issue any many churches today, not just Black churches however, I see how the “Black church” has encouraged “Black women” to get out of order and raise Black men to be anything but children of God. 

Back in the day, during times of slavery, Black women were the sexual objects of many slave owners (NOT ALL) by impregnating her himself or with one of his male slaves he could increase the number of slaves he owned for free. A woman’s body was more valuable than her soul.Today, women promote their body with clothing, hairstyles, make-up and even surgery to get a man. After reading the Bible numerous times, I read the following verse for the “first time” last year:

Isaiah 4:1 (KJV) 

1  And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. 

The White churches I have been a part of and watch on television are not “White” churches, the Senior Pastor may be White but the congregation is multi-cultural. The messages, sermons, are practical, they expound on what is written in the Bible based on Bible. These church leaders, the ones I listen to, teach how a Believer should live based on the Bible and these leaders are not pimping the church members so they can get more stuff. I don’t have to give a special offering to receive a blessing from God my obedience leads to blessings.

I am going to go back to watching this YouTube channel and hear what Caldwell, the producer of Caldwell Apologetics, has to say. (If you watch the video, I would like to know what you think, comment below.) I do not acknowledge the building that K. Harris visited a church, at least not one that represents God it is a psuedo (imitation)- church filled with African-Americans (Black people) mostly women, at least from what I saw.  Their applause proves that they have a plantation mindset, many individuals who are familiar with their overseer, believe he is a wolf in sheep's clothing. 

I pray these women and other people of color develop eyes to see and ears to hear the Truth.  

I pray that Father God shows mercy and strips these wolves of their garments so that all can see who they really are. I pray for the deliverance of these leaders so that they will not spend eternity in hell.

I pray for God’s mercy over America that we we will not suffer the consequences of these individuals who kill babies, endorse same sex relationships and are anti-Israel. 

I pray God help America.

PREGNANCY

 Tuesday, September 10, 2024 10:00:10 AM

I believe the church has failed the unborn among other things- NOT ALL CHURCHES but to many of them. Because I was part of the problem, accepting the teachings / preachings of church leaders, I failed to think about what God said and what His will is. I believe God knows every child conceived- He is Alpha and Omega- thus there are no surprises, even in the case of rape.

It is rape that caused me to hesitate on abortion But the Spirit reminded me of the love of God. The church has failed because they neglect, or fall short of support, for women who are pregnant with a question mark.

A question mark???? Women who have unplanned pregnancies, due to rape, incest (which is rape), financial strains, career goals, health risk of the mother or the baby. Because I have heard stories of individuals who are the products of failed abortions  and products of rape I could not maintain my position allowing rape to be a reason to end life. Because I worked as a pediatric private duty nurse of special needs children I could not justify abortion Nor cold I support termination of pregnancy because my son died at the age of 28 of a rare genetic disease and I know I would not have had an abortion if I knew prior to birth that he would die young;  I cannot support abortion because of disease. Below I am submitting a few of the many Bible verses that speak of the will of God as it relates to having a baby and a video on abortion an a video of Dr Bill Lile OB/ GYN as he discusses Amendment 4 which is on the November 4 ballot, in  Florida. 

Every woman (DNA female) who becomes pregnant should receive the love and support of the church some women will need more support than others. Let me get radical for a minute: Instead of a church preaching how to get more from God it needs to preach: HOW TO GIVE MORE IN THE NAME OF GOD.

BIBLE VERSES

The 6th Commandment: Exodus 20:13 (KJV) Thou shalt not kill.  Which is pretty clear added to such verses as: 

Genesis 30:22-23 (KJV) 

22  And God remembered Rachel, and God hearkened to her, and opened her womb. 

23  And she conceived, and bare a son; and said, God hath taken away my reproach: 

Genesis 49:25 (KJV) 

25  Even by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb: 

Deuteronomy 7:13 (KJV) 

13  And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee. 

1 Samuel 1:5-6, 19-20 (KJV) 

5  But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb. 

6  And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the LORD had shut up her womb.  

19  And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. 

20  Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the LORD. 

Psalm 127:3 (KJV) 

3  Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. 

Isaiah 44:2 (KJV) 

2  Thus saith the LORD that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; Fear not, O Jacob, my servant; and thou, Jesurun, whom I have chosen. 

Luke 1:15 (KJV) 

15  For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. 

Acts 14:8 (KJV) 

8  And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: 

Galatians 1:15 (KJV) 

15  But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, 

SEEDS OF HATE

 Once upon a time I was an active member of a “Word” church (as if other churches did not believe in the word).One of the better things that came out of my time there was understanding the planting of mental and spiritual seeds. My mother used to call it brainwashing and it is indeed a form of brain washing.

Ephesians 5:25-27 (KJV) 

25  Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 

26  That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 

27  That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish. 

Acts 22:16 (KJV) 

16  And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. 

Romans 12:1-2 (KJV) 

1  I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 

2  And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 

I will let the above verses speak.

For decades now there have been words used to alter the thinking of many. These words, I believe, are tools that Satan has learned to use to produce the results he wants. Satan, who is not omnipresent or omnipotent, and his team of fallen angels (demons) have strategically planted seeds of rebellion and hate in the minds of various individuals. I was taught how these principles are used in the Word church I used to attend.

Genesis 8:22 (KJV) 

22  While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. 

Luke 17:6 (KJV) 

6  And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you. 

Biblical principles work for good or bad, of course Satan takes these principles of seed planting for his own anti-Christ plans. Satan has waited for decades for the seeds of rebellion against the Word of God to manifest. The Devil does not operate under a microwave ideology, he is an opportunist. Over the years he has planted seeds that have:

• Taken women out of the home 
• Degraded the roll of fatherhood
• Encouraged families to be dependent on the government
• Taken God out of schools and the Ten Commandments out of the eyes of many people
• Bribed political leaders to ignore the will of the people in exchange for personal financial growth
• Bribed church leaders to compromise God’s word
• Encouraged the entertainment community to promote laciviousness
• Encouraged various media outlets to speak man’s lies and ignore God’s Truth
• Encouraged the ending of life before a child had the opportunity to exist outside of the womb
• Encouraged same gender relationships
• Promoted the denial of God determined gender validated by DNA 

All of which began with seeds of hate in the form of promoting individuality and the validation of “you”.  We have become a society to promotes self and what “I” want now. It started with Eve and the serpent, throughout history Satan has been trying to get what he never has and he has learned from his failures. He is craftier, more subtle; he looks like one of us now.

Matthew 7:15-16 (KJV) 

15  Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 

16  Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 

Satan is making himself known! The seeds he planted years ago are now producing fruit, fruit of hate. This is why, I believe we are seeing children kill; parents who hate produce children who hate. Churches that do not love God produce sheep that do not love God. (Note: We know the churches that do not love God because they do not obey His will but manipulate the God’s word to accommodate lifestyles that accommodate the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life (2 Timothy 2:16). 

In order to turn things around in the United States of America we must, those of us who are Christian, pray, repent and be bold enough to speak the truth; God’s word is true. We can no longer be undercover believers. We must also know the difference between expressing the love of god and accepting false ideologies such as a male being a female. We may  have to, spiritually speaking, turn over a few tables. There is a harvest coming up on November 5th and we must be prepared to uproot the weeds. 

Matthew 13:24-30 (KJV) 

24  Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 

25  But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. 

26  But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. 

27  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? 

28   He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 

29  But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 

30  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. 

Why would you vote for the woman who has been campaigning to make sure women could kill their yet to be born child(ren) and chose a man as her running mate  who put tampons in boys bathrooms.  The Bible tells us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and there is a man running for office who moved the American embassy to Jerusalem.  We have to choose who we are going to put in leadership and it is along party lines: The Democrats who took God out of their political platform or the Republicans who want to bring the faith of a nation back.

VOTING MY FAITH

 

Friday, August 16, 2024 11:20:08 AM

THE FIRST AMENDMENT
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The modern day interpretation of the above words is wrong. The words “separation of church and state” is something “they” said and it continues. 

“The phrase "separation of church and state" is derived from the "wall of separation between church and state" phrase coined by Thomas Jefferson in his 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in Connecticut. In the letter, Jefferson stated that the First Amendment created a "wall of separation" between church and state and that religion was "a matter which lies solely between Man & his God". Jefferson had witnessed the turmoil of American colonists who struggled to combine governance with religious expression, and some colonies experimented with religious freedom while others supported an established church.” (from Google)

Once I started studying God’s word with understanding I began voting my faith. As I began learning about the platforms of the two primary political parties I began voting more for one party, Republican, than the other Democrat. I transitioned from Democrat to Republican to non-partisan to Republican to now: No Political Affiliation; I toyed with the idea of going back to Republican but I did not. As my faith grows my understanding of God’s will increases.

My beliefs were confirmed today as I continue in my study of obedience (see verses below). First Samuel 12:13 reveals that the people chose Saul as their leader, God gave them what they want and warned them that they still had to obey Him;  “If ye will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the LORD your God:” God is still God no matter who is President, Governor, Mayor, congress man or woman, council representative or church leader 

I believe there is one God, YHWH, there are two genders- male and female, marriage is between a man and a woman and life begins at conception; Scripture supports this belief. I, therefore, cannot support a political organization that: rejects YHWH (the Democrats took God out of their political platform), promotes abortion at any time, and  celebrates same sex unions and sexual perversions (transgenderism and the medical treatments that go along with it, including in children).  The Democrat Party and other political organizations as well as the “Modern American Church” has turned their backs on the Word of God and developed their own agenda. Despite there short comings, there is only one political party that I see today that understands there is one God. Note: even many in the Amish community are choosing to vote Republican this year.  I will vote my faith.

Finally, even if Donald J Trump is sent to prison and his name removed from the ballot I will vote for President Donald J Trump because I believe he is who my God wants me to vote for. 

“But if ye will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you”.

1 Samuel 12:12-19 (KJV) 

12  And when ye saw that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon came against you, ye said unto me, Nay; but a king shall reign over us: when the LORD your God was your king. 

13  Now therefore behold the king whom ye have chosen, and whom ye have desired! and, behold, the LORD hath set a king over you. 

14  If ye will fear the LORD, and serve him, and obey his voice, and not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall both ye and also the king that reigneth over you continue following the LORD your God: 

15  But if ye will not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then shall the hand of the LORD be against you, as it was against your fathers. 

16  Now therefore stand and see this great thing, which the LORD will do before your eyes. 

17  Is it not wheat harvest to day? I will call unto the LORD, and he shall send thunder and rain; that ye may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which ye have done in the sight of the LORD, in asking you a king. 

18  So Samuel called unto the LORD; and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel. 

19  And all the people said unto Samuel, Pray for thy servants unto the LORD thy God, that we die not: for we have added unto all our sins this evil, to ask us a king. 

WORDS THAT TRIGGER LIBERAL WOMEN

 “Your being domestic.” A statement that actually “triggered”, aggravated, the woman I was talking to. We were having a discussion about making bread and house cleaning, seems domestic to me! She insisted she was not being domestic she was being “creative”. I began thinking about other terms of behavior that upset loyal Democrats, a.k.a. liberals. 

DOMESTIC- By definition this word simply relates to the concerns of a specific area. As a nation our leaders develop “domestic” policies as the head of the house the individual is concerned with the development of the household A domestic servant is concerned with the home, generally a specific area or areas. To be domestic, as an individual, simply indicates that you are focused on how your home: is it clean, are the utilities on, are there any repairs that need to be done is there food in the house, etc. It seems that Liberals don’t want to be associated with managing their homes.

HOMEMAKER/ HOUSEWIFE / STAY-AT-HOME MOMS - These terms are traditionally associated with a woman whose career choice is inside the home and not becoming a CEO of some major corporation; she makes the decision not to bring in a regular income. Most modern day women make the choice to be financially independent, the idea of being dependent on a man is abhorrent to them. Personally, I prefer the term homemaker to housewife because we are not married to our house.

To run a home successfully with children is, in my opinion, harder than being a career woman. As I, in my later years, attempt at cooking, cleaning, sewing, knitting, crocheting, paying household bills, planning trips, keeping up with children (even adult children have issues from time to time) and maintaining a relationship, I look forward to retiring. Work hinders my ability to do the things that I desire to do as a woman. Did I mention: Daily praying and reading of God’s word? If all I had to do was work my life would be very easy. 

WIFE /WOMAN’S WORK/ FEMALE ROLES -  I will define a woman as any individual with “XX” chromosomes; a surgical created vagina does not make a person female; based on this definition (the correct one) a woman can accept the role of wife, she can do what is traditionally referred to as “woman’s work and as a wife she can develop household responsibilities that, roles.

It is true that women can do most of the work men can do an men can do most of the work that women do; I am not offended by the phrase “woman’s work”, I just don’t use it. 

There are roles, depending on the era, that are seen as male roles and female roles. (*I wonder how many people are still reading?) Once upon a time men sewed more than women, it was when the sewing machine was created for home use that women started sewing. Women knowing how to use a gun is not a modern day concept, women with rank in the military is. Historically, women have had to cook, clean, plow fields, provide financially and emotionally for the family as well as give birth to the baby whereas, men can cook, clean plow fields and provide financially and emotionally for the family but he cannot give birth. No matter what there can be only one head of a household, one individual who has the final say thus there are roles, a man’s role and a woman’s role. 

MOTHER / MOTHERHOOD - Why  does being a mother trigger a Liberal? Because they want me to accept the role of motherhood thus, we have the label “birth parent” being promoted among those who choose to ignore God’s word. 

BIBLE / FAITH - To be fair it is not the word Bible that triggers a liberal or the word faith, it is the application of faith in the Bible that they have a problem with. Today we see the proliferation in places that pose as Christian churches teaching lies as biblical truths. When a Believer, such as myself, attempts to share the Truth by quoting directly from the Bible, in its’ proper context, Liberals become offended and often angry.  

SUBMISSIVE - People confuse submission with slavery. To be a slave indicates the individual has no choice; you have to choose to submit yourself to another ideology or individual. I yield myself to God the Father, and to my Beloved in that order; I will not do anything that my Beloved request if it disagrees with God’s word. My Beloved is submitted to God’s word and from time to time he yields to my request. Marital submission is mutual but it is not 50 -50; someone has to have the final say thus, it is 51-49. 

I don’t believe a person can be a Democrat and submitted to God’s word, be a Christian. The Democrat platform goes against Scripture. The triggering words I discussed: domestic, homemaker, housewife, stay-at-home mom, wife, woman’s work, female roles, mother, motherhood, Bible, faith and submissive; I believe, convict the hearer. These words convict because the speaker of these words are speaking as a representative of the Kingdom of God. 

One of the motivating factors in my restructuring this blog is to help women learn to appreciate who God has made them. WE are all unique individuals with different purposes. Our purpose is based on our femaleness and we do not have to compete with a man nor do we have to be ashamed of our desire to create a beautiful home life. As a single woman I was a homemaker with a household of one submitted to God my Father; I am being promoted.

PROMOTING FEAR (A Christian perspective of the upcoming election)

 Make no mistake the Democrats will be using F.E.A.R. as their primary campaign strategy.  F.E.A.R. is False Evidence Appearing Real, they, the Democrats, are very good at manipulating data so that people believe it.

Democrats appeal to individual self-centeredness, the need to survive, and lack of knowledge, ignorance.  We have become a society that chooses to take the easiest route (the wide path); whatever, is faster, most convenient and less aggravating. It is easy to blame someone or something else for why “our” life is not good.

It is not the Republicans fault, the White man’s fault, the Jews fault or your ex’s fault as to why your life is not where you want it to be. Our ancestors succeeded despite adversaries and adverse conditions; it was not easy for them. 

Democrats stimulate any who will listen to them by promoting concepts that will make the hearer angry and fearful. 

Ephesians 4:26-27 (KJV) 

26  Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: 

27  Neither give place to the devil. 

2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV) 

7  For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 

If you are not a Christian the above two verses may be irrelevant to you but, if you identify as a Believer then you must live by these two rules. Therefore, don’t allow anger to cause you to hate people like Donald J Trump, MAGA people, Jews or other children of God  (1 John 4:20); and research the information being presented to you as if it was true.  

It is my opinion that people of the world will believe false teachings and false doctrines because they don’t know any better. I believe there are people who identify as Christian who don’t believe the infallible word of God, Scripture. In addition, there is a remnant of individuals who stand on the God’s word and live without fear, no matter who is elected President of the United States because they study what is happening around the world and God’s word.

Romans 3:4-6 (KJV) 

4  God forbid: yea, LET GOD BE TRUE, BUT EVERY MAN A LIAR; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged. 

5  But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man) 

6  God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

THE HABIT OF READING

 Sunday, June 16, 2024 6:03:06 PM

I have a list of books I want to read and am reading, sort of. As a teenager I went through books a week now I struggle to read one book. I have set aside time every day to read however, I find my mind wanders within minutes. I am determined to read more because I want to learn more.

Why don’t we read? Because we put our trust in the words of church leaders, political leaders, television personalities and social media.  Why read when you can have someone tell you what you need to know? We don’t have to read.

There was a statement I hard decades ago: If you want to keep information from a person put it in a book. 

It is more important today to not just read but research. There is so much misinformation in existence today and pressure to not question what is being stated as facts. With the amount of data available it becomes overwhelming to many people and they choose to accept what seems to be acceptable even if it is not logical.

The fact that I am writing and not creating a YouTube video about reading decreases the number of individuals who will receive my thoughts. Many people purchase books to support the author but have no intention of ever reading it. How many people own a Bible but have not read it’s entire contents?

It is time to challenge yourself and begin reading again.

Stop listening to the opinions of other people: this book is to hard, this book has to many pages start with something simple, you won’t like this, and just read. I am a slow reader but I know I will finish the book eventually. I struggle with books by Watchman Nee, I have been reading one, on and off, for over 10 years but I will finish it EVENTUALLY!. I am reading one book that I am struggling with, I take it as a challenge. The first time I read the King James Version of the Bible, some parts I understood quickly other parts I did not but I read it from Genesis to Revelation and I have read it numerous times since. 

I am motivated to read because there is so much misinformation out there that I believe it is imperative that I come to my own conclusions. I am not really a slow reader, I just take notes as I read and I think about what I am reading, this takes time. I am reading and I am watching less television, I am developing a reading habit.

I COULDN'T DO IT!

 I could not re-join the Republican Party. I know I said I was going to do it a few months ago but I just could not do it. I did give to The Trump campaign but I may not do that again either. But why, you might ask? 

The Republicans may not be as corrupt as the Democrats but they are not as sincere as they present themselves to be. I think, donating to Donald J Trumps campaign convinced me that the system is to corrupt and only God can fix it. There is not enough money in the world to buy the right people for the jobs available; money can’t fix it. Money busy most politicians more opportunities to lie to the people. 

I decided to continue to pray and vote my faith. Truth be told, I believe that it is more important to focus on where I will spend eternity rather than how I am going to keep my lights on. No, I don’t want the grid to go down but, even if Trump does become the next President, if God allows an attack on this country the grid can still go down. 

Therefore: my name is Marsha and I am registered: NO POLITICAL AFFILIATION.

A note about my giving and why I hate giving to any organization, including some churches: begging for dollars. I average 4 text messages a day from various Trump organizations asking for money, since I made that donation; it is annoying. Obviously, I know how to give because I gave before, without being asked.  AND,  unlike other text messages you cannot reply STOP to end the text, apparently I agreed to this and I have to research on how to un-agree.

I am not participating in the purchasing of votes but I will pray.

A CHRISTIAN CHALLENGE

 Monday, March 18, 2024 7:57:23 AM

This is my question to the Christians who live in North Carolina, specifically the Pro-Black voters, those who declare it’s the White man’s fault, the Democrat Christians who live in North Carolina: What is your reason for not voting for Lt. Governor Mark Robinson for Governor of North Carolina?

I know more than 10 church attending, offering giving, self identified Christians who live in North Carolina who vote the Democrat ticket every election. They have no problem voting for candid who represent a political organization that has an anti-Christ platform. The Bible teaches against: abortion, homosexuality, transgender, pedophilia, and injustice whereas the Democrat party supports all of these things, which includes prosecuting January 6 individuals unfairly. (Should I add the unrighteous prosecution of President Donald J Trump?) The people I know proudly attended the inauguration of the “First Black President” Barak Obama , a man who did nothing for the Black community while in office.

I am not saying Lt. Governor Mark Robinson is going to work hard for Black people. No! I believe he will do what is best for ALL North Carolinians because he is a man of God first and foremost. This is who we the people should be voting for, no matter what shade your pigment is, that is if you really believe what the Bible says. 

I will vote for a man after God’s heart, I plan on voting  for Mark Robinson. I vote my faith not my emotions

NOTE: The Democrats are going to try and destroy him (my opinion), that is what Satan’s children do. 

John 8:44 (KJV) 

44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. 

MY VOTE

 Thursday, March 14, 2024 6:04:12 AM

Lt. Governor Mark Robinson has motivated me to become Republican again  and, the media has convinced me to vocally support Donald J Trump for President again. 

 Today I am listening to Jason Whitlock’s program FEARLESS via YouTube though I am subscribed to BLAZE TV. I was thinking as I listened to him talk about Mark Robinson’s run for Governor of this state, North Carolina, I would love to sit in a classroom and learn from him. There is a list of great men I would love to have as teachers: 

• Mark Robinson
• Voddie Bachman
• Clarence Thomas
• Thomas Sowell
• Jason Whitlock
• D. Ben Carson (added 3/18)

To the best of my knowledge, these are men of faith, integrity and purpose. What about women Marsha? Hold that thought. Most of 2023 I have listened to or been aware these individuals, they have corrected, educated and confirmed my knowledge. Indirectly they have become my teachers of: government, faith, integrity, and even submission. A note about Jason Whitlock, he is like an elder, an overseer, the one who I can listen to and harvest information in general whereas, these men are very specific in what they do, he balances it all out. 

I have been blessed with great women in my life: My mother, Pastor Myrtis Olique (no I do not agree with women Pastors but she played an important part of my life during a key period of my life), Lynette Peters and Helen Steward. Each of these women gave me examples of what it meant to be a female with gifts: mother, wife, single woman and widow; each of these women overcame obstacles. Of these 4 women Myrtis is still on this side of eternity serving the Lord as she believes he wants her to be. Note: She has closed the doors to her church but maintains her teaching ministry. 

 As a North Carolinian I have supported Mark Robinson and I enjoy hearing his speeches. I am excited that he is running for Governor. In listening to his speeches, past and present, particularly when he speaks of the Republican party, I keep thinking: we need to take back the party. There is corruption in the party and my solution was to leave it and register No Political Affiliation while voting Republican. Well I am going back and I will be giving financial support to Mark Robinson for Governor but not the Republican Party. 

Being political is something I do in addition to. I write my thoughts regarding living in this world as a Believer in the Trinity. I believe men are to leave and women are to support. I do not believe in the color culture that is promoted today. I grew up in a family of Democrats, many who now identify as Liberal, I ran away from their ideology but, just as they boldly celebrate their anti-Christ Democrat ideology I need to speak political  words  under a biblical umbrella. So here I am going back to being a Republican.

I don’t know what He has for me in the upcoming days. I have two blogs Sister Talk and Mature Sisters my goal was to talk about being a godly woman. Godly women vote, to many of us are voting based on what “they” say, false understandings regarding history and the Bible, and appearances. 

Psalm 19:14 (KJV) 

14  Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.

FOR THE LOVE OF TRUMP

 

Wednesday, March 13, 2024 9:12:48 AM

I am watching THE DAN BONGINO SHOW on YouTube and he is talking about President Trump attending a fight, how the audience responds. It occurred to me that it is not godly that people have for him it is love and respect for the person. 

I don’t like President Trumps “tweets” I think they are juvenile. I don’t like the fact that Solomon with all his godly wisdom had so many wives. Hmmmmmm, do you see where I am going? And don’t forget that David and Bathsheba thing, I am not. For the record, I liked and still do like Vivek Rammaswammy (did I spell it right?) and, I am not on the Trump train, I am a flag waver.

What I see today, is a man being persecuted because of hate, not for him but for what he represents. For the people who are getting their flags and waving the Trump train on they see what I see, selfish greed. 

When you put lights on in a swampy area you see who has been living in it. The swamp, a place of sexual perversion, financial manipulation, greed, selfishness, lies, corruption, hate, thievery and abuse of power. How can a church allow a woman who admits she slept with a married man stand in their pulpit and lie to the congregation? How does a group of people celebrate a man who is: a known drug abuser, has a rebellious nature, did not cooperate with law enforcement, just because he died during an arrest?  If you live in darkness you cannot see, when you allow the light to expose your faults you have a choice.

Many people have allowed the light to guide them out of the swamp. Unfortunately, many people are angry at those of us who have our own lanterns filled with oil. The swamp people want to destroy the light which means they have to destroy us and because they see Donald J Trump as the leader of the carriers of light they have to destroy him. 

Laugh out loud! Really, laugh out loud! I have been saying for quite a while: This is a spiritual battle and as a Christian I know the battle is the Lord’s not Americans. The swamp people, whose father is the devil, will lose. What is happening now is what the consequences of their actions will be. What is happening now is the determination of the consequences of their actions: by your words you will be justified and by your words you will be condemned! (see Matthew 12:34-37) In other words, the words spoken against and the actions towards President Trump will boomerang, and people see it.

When I was on social media, Facebook, I saw Trump worship mixed I with Trump love. I now have a different view. Yes, I had to get off the Trump train and walk among the everyday people; not everyone can afford the price of a Trump train ticket. It is not just “us” that believe the election was stolen, and not by the Russians. The light is shining on an incompetent President supported by a bunch of rich people, of all colors, trying to tell everyday folks how to survive. Because people are not changing their mind they are doubling down on Trumps’ punishment and he is taking it. The harder they attack President Trump the greater the respect for him grows- this is Trump love.

People love Trump because he does not have to and they know if he doesn’t America is going to become hellish.

Yes, I support Donald J Trump, with my prayers and my vote.
