Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day here in America. We have been enjoying spending time together on our Thanksgiving break this week. It has been a rough year for many of us around the world, but there are still so many blessings to be thankful for. Thanksgiving is a time to acknowledge those blessings and give thanks to God who graciously blesses us with them. May we all remember the goodness of God this year, and give Him the gratitude and praise He deserves.
The photo above was taken by my Mom at our old house in Colorado. We have a different kind of turkey down here in Florida known as Osceola Turkeys. There were a couple in our backyard in July. They are big funny birds, and we see them all the time in our neighborhood.

Since today is Thanksgiving Eve, we have been spending the day cooking and preparing for tomorrow. My wife is making her famous homemade cinnamon rolls, and we will be making cookies soon too. There are wonderful scents of cinnamon, brown sugar, and maple syrup in the air, and we are all looking forward to enjoying those delicious rolls. My wife says they are more like sticky buns because of the special glaze she cooks them in, so I suppose they should be called sticky cinnamon rolls. They sure are good, no matter what you call them.

God has been so good to us this year. He has given us victory over health challenges, and seen us through many trials and troubles. He is so very faithful, merciful, loving, and forgiving, and we give Him praise!
“Praise the LORD, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise his holy name.” -Psalm 103:1
“Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.” -Psalm 107:1
“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” -Colossians 2:6-7
I know many of you are suffering and are in the midst of serious trials right now. Our hearts and prayers are with you all. Let us not forget our brothers and sisters who need our support and prayers. Please pray for our good friend and sister in Christ, Vivian. Her husband Mark has been battling brain cancer for many months now. Please pray for them and their four children. Vivian has specifically asked for prayers for peace. We know God can do all things, and He can heal and perform miracles at anytime. Please lift up their family to the Lord.
As we go through hard times, may the promises in God’s Word encourage and refresh our hearts, and may the peace and comfort of the Lord be with us. The Lord will never leave us nor forsake us. He will be with us always to the very end, just as He promised.
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” -Philippians 4:6-7
“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” -Jesus speaking in John 14:1-4
Count your blessings this Thanksgiving, give thanks to the Lord, and love each other deeply from the heart. From our family to yours, have a very blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
It is almost 3 a.m. here in Florida. I went to bed at midnight, but I can’t sleep. As many of you know, I have been dealing with a resurgence of suffering from Celiac this month. It has been a very long November. Chronic fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite have been ruling my days, and I have been crying out for mercy. It will be 9 years fighting this life-ruining disease on January 6th, 2021, and I don’t want to fight it anymore. I’m not sure why I’m up or what I’m supposed to write, but today is Thanksgiving here in America, so I’ll start by saying Happy Thanksgiving!
What a strange and dangerous time we are living in. There are people like Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau admitting to the globalist plan of using Covid as “The Great Reset” to achieve the goals of their United Nations “2030 Sustainable Development Agenda.” We also have tyrant Governors issuing unconstitutional mandates that violate our freedom and rights, while the entire Democrat party, Big Tech, and the media attempts to steal our election and overthrow our Republic.
Above all this, the spiritual warfare has intensified as we approach the birth of the one world government, and we wait with great hope for Jesus to take us home. The people who serve the evil one will never be able to stop our faith or our praise to God! They have abused their power in every way they can to shut down churches, stop our singing, and even make gathering to give thanks to God a crime, but they will not beat us. Our victory comes from Jesus Christ alone and we stand victorious because He already won the war at the cross!
“For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve.”
-1 Corinthians 15:3-5
There is a great stirring of the Spirit happening right now! Can you feel it?! Millions of Christians all over the world have been talking about feeling something big coming. Even unbelievers sense it. We don’t know the exact time or date when Jesus will return to rapture us home before the Tribulation, but it might very well happen in our lifetime!
The 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda use to be called Agenda 21. The new world order globalists changed the name several years ago because truth speakers blew the lid off Agenda 21, which is a detailed plan by the United Nations for a one world government. They are using Covid as the Trojan Horse to dominate the globe and usher in their new world order based on communist dictatorships. They want the whole world enslaved like China. It all goes back to their evil commandments called the Georgia Guidestones, and they are deadly serious about fulfilling those goals. Their very first goal is to get the world population down to 500 million, and that is why you see them aggressively working towards depopulation worldwide. They have to kill over 7.5 billion people to achieve that evil goal!
The Covid death numbers are not real, they are a lie to control and manipulate you with fear. 250,000 people have NOT died from Covid in America! Even the CDC admitted that only 6% of those deaths were actually due to Covid! This whole thing is literally about taking over the world. The antichrist will rule the coming one world government and he must be revealed before the Tribulation. This is no conspiracy. This is Bible prophecy being fulfilled in our time, and we must be ready with our eyes on Jesus!
“For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.”
-2 Thessalonians 2:7-8
Speaking of conspiracies, nobody is calling me a conspiracy theorist anymore! God has been using me to connect the dots for people for many years. Agenda 21 is not a conspiracy. It is right in our faces and it is a menacing threat to all of us on earth! Forced masks, forced vaccines, forced digital ID, no rights, no borders, no sovereignty, no freedom. That is what they want and that is what they are doing, and they admit it!
These lockdowns imposed illegally by Democrat Governors are not about Covid. They are about subverting our Constitution in a dramatic coup to destroy America with communism. They are setting up check points, establishing curfews, and violently assaulting people who don’t comply with mask mandates. What’s next, a giant wall and Gestapo goons? This is not America, folks! We all better stand together and fight back, or we are going to lose our country to evil!
Nobody in this country has the right to slam you on the ground and arrest you for not wearing a mask. Nobody has the right to cancel your family business, or cancel Thanksgiving, or tell you what to do in your own home. Do not let them control your lives with fear, lies, and abuse of power! Stand your ground and give Praise to God! The law, the Constitution, and God are all on our side!
It is almost 6 a.m. now. My wife and kids will be up in a few hours, and it’s going to be a blessed and joyful day full of praising God! We will enjoy homemade cinnamon rolls, turkey, mashed taters, pumpkin pie, sweet potato casserole, and all the other goodies that make Thanksgiving so down home special in America! If we had a bunch of family living nearby, we would have them all over to celebrate too, and nobody here in Florida would stop us! Do you know why? Because we are FREE AMERICANS living in a free state with a Governor who protects and defends our God-given Constitutional rights! Nobody in this country has the legal authority to stop you from celebrating Thanksgiving with your family, nobody! They cannot enter your home, they cannot harass you, they cannot arrest you, and if they do, then they are breaking the law, not you!
I’m not wearing a mask, I’m not taking the vaccine, and I’m never taking any kind of mark, microchip, or digital ID! We must stand firm against this tide of evil! We must live in the truth and be brave! Jesus is coming soon!
“Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book.”
-Jesus speaking in Revelation 22:7
Do not lose hope, and don’t ever let them stop you from pouring out your gratitude and praise to God! Every single mandate that is unconstitutional should be ignored and treated as the tyrannical decrees they are. Those who hate God are trying to make our faith and everything connected to it illegal. Don’t let them! Fear God, not man!
“Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe.”
-Proverbs 29:25
Even after all my suffering and all the insanity in this world, there is still so much to be thankful for! God is so very good, gracious, merciful, and forgiving to us! May we give praise and thanks to God for every good and perfect gift He has blessed our families with, and may we never be ensnared by the fear of man!
“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
-1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
To all my fellow Americans, we are a free people! Live free, worship God freely, give thanks to God freely, sing to God freely, and celebrate Thanksgiving with your families in peace and freedom under the grace of God! May those who are fighting God with their evil tyranny see the error of their ways, and come to faith in Jesus! May our faith, courage, and resolve be a warning and a testimony to them that God is above us all and every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father, amen!
“May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and he will do it.”
-1 Thessalonians 5:23-24
Grace and peace to you all, and Happy Thanksgiving!
