Ask your self. Are your healthcare bills cheaper. Did “Obama care” solve the problem or exacerbate it.
As a small business owner I now see the full picture. There is a real cost to families and a cost to employers.
So are your healthcare costs cheaper?
Some people are just not going to notice the move of God that is happening in front of them…. And in reality that’s OK.
Just be obedient to what God has called you to do and has placed inside of you.
Don’t feel compelled to succumb to the pressures of man or confront every neigh sayer.
Walk the walk God has called YOU to walk.
Before you cast stones at @PhilipAMitchell, have you prayed for him?
On October 12, the Lord spoke his name to me and then said....
“He is Mine.”
I didn’t even know he was releasing Contend when I received this word. Then I saw the criticism surrounding the book and the stadium gathering.
But what I heard from the Lord was about His FAVOR, His GRACE, and a surrendered heart He is using to reach people.
Is Philip Anthony Mitchell a perfect vessel? No.
Neither am I.
Only God knows the heart of a man. We cannot get so caught up in casting stones that we let a move of God pass us by.
I heard the Lord say, “Keep going.”
And He told us to PRAY for him.
Pray for his family. Pray for his ministry. Pray for the assignment God has given him.
The full word is in the video below. Take it back to the Lord. Test it. Let the Holy Spirit confirm it to you.
Full video in the reply below.
Thankfully the written word of God is the absolute truth and not a man.
Every man is fallible and it’s why we put our Faith in Jesus and not a man.
The popes statement below is flat out wrong and it’s OK to say it.
The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty
The word of God is infallible.
We humans, on the other hand, can mess it up badly.
But Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith.
We have redemption in Christ Jesus even though we are fallen.
Have you accepted Him as Lord and Savior of your life?
If you’ve tried everything else to fill the God sized hole in your heart but you’ve not accepted Jesus. I’d encourage you to ask him to show himself to you.
I assure you He will not fail you.
It may not be EASY but He won’t fail you.
We are in a cycle that needs to break….
Some Pastors say the Gifts of the Spirit are not for today…
Yet they have REAL congregants sitting in their chairs who God HAS poured out gifts on.
They begin to become activated and they are LEARNING to try and walk in those gifts.
When they cannot be discipled in their own church, where do they turn most of the time?
ONLINE, and that can be a recipe for disaster.
First, I believe God is using online ministry in profound ways, myself included.
HOWEVER, witches, warlocks, and FALSE teachers and prophets have platforms too.
These gifts get captured by the enemy.
The SPIRITUAL is REAL and we have REAL believers with REAL God-given gifts and NO frame of reference on how to steward them. In fact, they have been TOLD they are NOT for today.
Sadly, many of these gifts get captured and fall into the WRONG hands. People get LED astray….
Ask me how I know…. I found out late that I had a prophetic gift, only to be rejected by all the RIGHT places for discipleship for it.
It HURT…… especially coming from my own church.
Where did I go during that time? ONLINE…. and I saw EVERYTHING you should NOT do, yet I didn't know it at the time.
God was preparing me….
So ask yourself…. who in my pews has God gifted, and how can we ensure those gifts are WELL ROOTED in the written Word of God so they don't get captured?
Change your perspective and maybe you'll see the fruit of when the Word of God and the Spirit of God come together in harmony.
This is coming from a guy who had to WALK it out in real life.
Are you praying for your pastor, or are you biting your pastor?
Let me be real. I think we've all been guilty of both.
The Lord recently spoke to my heart about someone, and it broke me.
Then I watched the podcast with @howertonjosh and @PhilipAMitchell, and I had a come-apart moment.
Here is what I saw.
A transition is coming to the Church. God has raised up many vessels who were bruised and broken. People who are raw and real. And He is using them as a bridge.
A bridge to HEAL the Church across both the "Spirit" and "Word" movements.
It's going to get messy.
But rest assured, God's hand is in it. We need BOTH, and it may not look the way we expect.
We need STRONG Bible teachers who can recognize the Spirit of God moving without being tossed to and fro.
We need STRONG leaders who move deeply in the gifts of the Spirit and are well rooted in the Word.
I see the Lord cross-pollinating paths in this season.
It's going to be a force to be reckoned with.
But here is what else I saw…
Sheep and fellow ministries bite. They try to take out a move of God as it's getting started, and they deeply wound those on the front lines. Some may not even realize they are doing it....
So today, pray for your PASTOR.
If you don't understand something, pray for them. Don't be so quick to snap back. Take it to the Lord, then encourage and edify in this season.
And yes, it goes without saying: if someone has gone off the rails in an unbiblical way, we SHOULD go to elders, a council, or other leaders.
But PRAY for them. Lift them up. Keep going.
God is up to something, and I'm excited for it.
I don't even have words for this…. It's off the rails.
We need strong Bible teachers and we need a move if the spirit. We can't have one without the other.
EXCLUSIVE: James Talarico’s Pastor Says Jesus Didn’t Die For Sins, Slanders Virgin Mary
“We have no way of knowing if Jesus really existed,” Rev. Babs Miller of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church says in NEW undercover video obtained by @realDailyWire.
A great deception. In the age of TikTok sermons, sadly, many will latch onto this.
We need to be well rooted in the word. Open it. Read it. Let God speak to you.
Here is your clue. If it goes against the written word. It’s not God speaking.
This is a modern day false teacher / prophet. Run!
Episcopal priestess says Mary assigned Jesus male at birth, but he was trans. And when he was resurrected, he came back as His true, transgender self.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Mary did not assign a gender to Jesus. Mary was told before his birth that Jesus would be a male.
Luke 1:30-31 – "But the angel said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.'"

God is moving in profound ways through Pastors who are just normal dudes walking out their faith with fear and trembling.
Anthropic (Last Weekend): AI is too dangerous... It's going to harm someone... It must be regulated and slowed down.
Anthropic (a few days later): We are building the most technologically advanced bio lab for innovation and breakthroughs.
hmmmmmmm
While everyone was watching the AI fight this weekend, the Clarity Act got rewritten late Sunday night. Here is what changed, what I do not like about it, and why I am not shaken.
What changed. Senate Republicans released what they are calling the last, best, and final text, 635 pages, after President Trump agreed to most of the ethics framework Democrats had been holding out for. The ethics rules now cover every federally elected official, judges, and their spouses, and bar them from issuing or sponsoring digital assets for compensation while in office. The stablecoin rewards fight got a circuit breaker instead of a ban, meaning the Treasury Secretary can pause rewards for up to 18 months if withdrawals start threatening community banks. And the piece to look at closely: the final text lets state attorneys general bring enforcement actions under the bill, including against exchanges that list digital assets the legislation prohibits. Democrats pushed for that because they did not want a President's own Justice Department policing the President's crypto dealings. The White House had resisted it for weeks. Sunday night they gave it up to get the vote.
What I do not like. I understand why the provision is there. But a door that lets fifty state attorneys general take an offensive posture against the digital asset rails, each with their own politics and their own ambitions, is a door the enemy will try to walk through. I see the plans of the enemy in this. I am saying that plainly.
Why I am not shaken. Five days before that text existed, on September 8, the Lord said this on our show Money on the Move:
"I see the attorney general of New York. I see her trying to take an offensive posture on the digital age of financial infrastructure. And I hear the Lord saying that whether it's her or someone that may supersede her, I don't know, I see them trying to get out over their skis, but it could create some volatility. And I hear it could force some federal market structure. And I hear the words quickly in areas that I am in, says the Lord. And this is a sign to pay attention to at some time."
P.S. Yes, I'm prophetic, and God still speaks today, even about fiancés.
A note so nobody runs with it wrong. What I saw was like the attorney general of New York. It did not necessarily have to be her. It was an image, a reference point for a state attorney general taking that posture, and He said so Himself in the word. Do not turn a picture He used into a prediction about one person.
Now read it against Sunday night. Offensive posture. State attorney general. Financial infrastructure. Volatility. And then the part I am standing on: it could force some federal market structure, quickly, in areas that He is in. He named the risk and He named what He does with it in the same sentence, and then it got written into the bill. Two days after that, on September 10, He said, "Yes, some laws will change, but that's because MY people will take center stage and change policy," and He warned us not to get ensnared in structures that are not of Him.
So hear me clearly. Either way, His hand is on it. Any trap the enemy thinks he is setting with this will end up catching the ones who set it. That is not optimism. That is Scripture: "He makes a pit, digging it out, and falls into the hole that he has made" (Psalm 7:15, ESV). Pay attention to the state AG piece, pray over it, and do not fear it.
What happens next. Tuesday at 2:15 ET the Senate votes on cloture on the motion to proceed. That is a vote on whether to open debate, not a vote on the bill. 60 needed, 53 Republicans, so seven crossovers decide it. With ethics largely settled, the open questions are whether the illicit finance language and the Agriculture Committee guardrails bring those seven across, and whether any Republicans peel off over the concessions. A yes does not make it law. A no does not kill it. Either way, crypto will trade the headline before it reads the text.
Worth noting Elon narrowed his Saturday "Dario is right" to "some oversight" and "peer review by competitors," then said this. Careful is not the same as captured. Keep that distinction when you read the headlines.
This is the right read. If you are the frontier, pace yourself. Nobody is stopping you. Asking Washington for the brake pedal is a different thing, and the people who pay for it are the ones running models on their own hardware.
Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead.
You guys are the frontier. By any reasonable metric — market share, revenue growth, model capability — the two of you have a duopoly on frontier intelligence. You’ve also claimed the lead is widening because of recursive self-improvement.
I don’t see what you see in the lab. If the unreleased models are scary enough that you think you should slow down, I support your decision to be responsible.
But stop pretending you need anyone else’s permission. Stop pretending antitrust law has to be suspended so you can form a cartel. Stop pretending you need a regulatory approval process that supersedes product liability. Stop pretending METR is independent when it is intertwined with Anthropic’s investors and staff. Stop pretending you need those same evaluators to police competitors who aren’t even at the frontier.
Most of all, stop pretending the motivation to slow down is purely altruistic. You face massive product-liability exposure if your products enable a truly damaging cyberattack. The market already punishes models that behave in unpredictable or unauthorized ways. After the Hugging Face episode, it is simply good business for OpenAI and Anthropic to trade some raw power for reliability and predictability. Call it alignment if you want. It is also just giving customers what they want.
Pacing the frontier would also create breathing room for a more intelligent conversation about regulation than Bernie Sanders’ “shut it all down.” China is very unlikely to join a global agreement, as you know, and that has to be taken into account as well.
So go ahead and pace the frontier. You are the ones setting it. The easiest way not to build superintelligence is for you to agree not to build it. Demanding your preferred regulatory framework as the price of that will look like blackmail of the public and the political system. So just do it.
If you do, you’ll buy goodwill for the next conversation. If you don’t, we’ll know this was just another bid for regulatory capture — or an election-season psyop.
It's 2026, and yet I spend half my day in the terminal or terminal-type apps....
I'm not a software dev and I haven't touched a terminal since my CCNA days in HS.
The amount of WORK and analysis I can get done with this blinking cursor in a tool called the terminal is mind-blowing.
@OmarchyLinux has become a daily driver in my setup..... I'm running an agentic-first workstation that combines frontier models with local AI, and I can make it "just work"
There is a seat at the table for everyone to learn....
@OmarchyLinux makes it possible to bring back decade-old computers and give them new use and new life.
This is a powerful tribute, and yet it reflects God's glory in the situation back to HIM.
Will you answer the call? The phone is ringing, and the Creator of the world wants a relationship with you.
Find Jesus, and you'll find eternal life.
God Bless Erika. Great Tribute @Meldougherty77
