Good morning Rally Point and those of the Posse who are still here.
The majority of us know a lot of things but knowing isn't enough. What are we doing with that knowledge? How accurate is it? And is it enough to make the important decisions? Maybe and maybe not. Some things will have to be taken on faith since none of us can know everything perhaps not even in 2020 hindsight.

I try to educate others. I try to get people in Delaware to hold protests that are actually effective but very few have what it takes to do that. Their idea is to hold a rally outside of legislative hall on a Sat when none of the politicians are around so nobody sees it. They love to shame people who don't come on social media though.

I hope you are emotionally and physically prepared for everything that will happen to and for yourself and those who trust in your leadership, advice and judgement. No doubt you comprehend that the LORD’s sanctification of YOUR soul prepares you spiritually for what will befall you. I hope and pray that you and I place our trust in the LORD, submit our will to HIM and be grateful for HIS love for each of us. 'Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD' [Proverbs 3:5-8 ESV] my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
I lift each and every one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who are nervous, anxious, or fearful about the near to mid-term future for themselves and their loved ones. Remember the LORD is in complete control of all creation. Those who place their trust in human government are foolish, whether or not the government is trustworthy or corrupt or a mixture as usually is the case. ‘Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving might of his right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright. [Psalm 20:6-8 ESV]
I thank YOU LORD for sanctifying the soul of each of us. YOU guide us step by step throughout our life on this earth. You prepare us through challenges and trials as YOU mature us in YOUR perfect timing. YOUR selfless and sacrificial love for each of us is beyond wonderful to experience. 'For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.' [Ephesians 2:10 ESV]
I am beyond grateful that YOU are incomplete control of all that we go through in life. YOU use everything we go through individually and corporately to bless us in YOUR perfect timing through YOUR perfect methods. YOU know what we need and YOU ensure we each receive what we need including admonishment and discipline. ‘And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.’ [Romans 8:27-28 ESV]
By YOUR grace, YOU admonish each of through YOUR Word. 'But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”— these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.' [1 Corinthians 2:9-10 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Tuesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Wednesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.
