Dominion: “we are to watch over and keep safe all that the Lord has put under our care… our basic mandate as Christian men is to cultivate, build, and grow (both things and people), but also to stand guard so that people and things are kept safe-so that the fruit of past cultivating and nurturing is preserved…” More here: https://ministry.family.blog/2022/01/14/household-prayer-courage/

Household Prayer: cosmic battle plans

“All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations shall worship before you. For kingship belongs to the Lord, and he rules over the nations.” Psalm 22:27-28 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.22.27-28.ESV

Brothers I’m praying today that we understand the cosmic battle that we are in against “the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” (Eph. 6:12)

There is a video circulating again of Mellisa Harris-Perry from MSNBC claiming we need “a collectivist view” and “to break the idea that kids belong to parents.”

Brothers, since the beginning Satan attacked the relationship between the man and woman. Our marriages and households are God’s battle formation. I pray we are aware and engaged.

“Our way or war was described by Paul in Ephesians… We have the fulcrum of the world in our possession, and that gives us leverage. I am talking about our households. But the principalities know this, and that is why they are obsessively working to break them down… So fight the good fight. Go home, build a house, and if you do it in the right way, you will give the world a glimpse of things to come. There is nothing more terrifying to the principalities than this. Because in the end, the principalities will bow and confess the Lordship of Christ, and if your house is ordered well, it is a reminder of that glorious day (Phil. 2:10–11).” The Household and the War for the Cosmos: Recovering a Christian Vision for the Family by C.R. Wiley

Mellisa Harris-Perry from MSNBC claiming we need “a collectivist view” and “to break the idea that kids belong to parents.” https://twitter.com/aimeeterese/status/1484204872480489473?s=21

“Christians have been given suits of armor and they are duty-bound to fight for the household of God… The principalities continue to rage against the Lord of the Cosmos. Their inhuman machinery menaces us, particularly in the West… In spite of all of these things, Christ has already won. He is our Lord and we are engaged in a long obedience. We wrestle with His enemies…”

“Our way or war was described by Paul in Ephesians… Paul outlines a two-pronged strategy to follow.”

“STRATAGEM 1: THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD… The churches Paul planted throughout the Roman world… in those houses of God, the house stewards worked to make sure that these communities put the benefits of Christ’s rule on display for the principalities and powers…”

“STRATAGEM 2: THE HOUSEHOLD, FULCRUM OF THE COSMOS… We have the fulcrum of the world in our possession, and that gives us leverage. I am talking about our households. But the principalities know this, and that is why they are obsessively working to break them down… remember, a household ordered by the household code in Ephesians reflects the rule of Christ… Households have been the basis of human culture from the start… So fight the good fight. Go home, build a house, and if you do it in the right way, you will give the world a glimpse of things to come. There is nothing more terrifying to the principalities than this. Because in the end, the principalities will bow and confess the Lordship of Christ, and if your house is ordered well, it is a reminder of that glorious day (Phil. 2:10–11). And, as hard as it is to imagine, when, at the end of the war for the cosmos, the tribunal for war-crimes is impaneled, you and I will have our seats behind the bench (1 Cor. 6:3).”

Household Prayer: Courage

“Nothing is more terrifying than a man who, with the look of a lion in his eyes, refuses to surrender, who charges when everyone else around him is in full retreat. And best of all? Courage is contagious.”
Slaying the Feminist Leviathan by Eric Conn, Fight Laugh Feast issue 2.3 Fall 2021
https://flfnetwork.com/product/fight-laugh-feast-magazine/

Brothers, our households, churches, and communities need us. I pray we understand and walk in the masculine mandate God has given us “to cultivate, build, and grow (both things and people), but also to stand guard so that people and things are kept safe – so that the fruit of past cultivating and nurturing is preserved… In our families… At church… In society.” I’m praying God would give us courage and move us to action, even small daily disciplines, for His glory.

“The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.”
‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭28:1‬ ‭ESV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/59/pro.28.1.ESV

“I can add my hearty “Amen!” to the idea that Christian men should reject a feminized idea of manhood…

the point of Genesis 2:8 is that God has put the man into the garden, into the world of covenantal relationships and duties, in order to gain and act out his God-given identity there… Adam was put in the garden to be its lord and servant. Adam was to bring glory to God by devoting himself to bearing God’s fruit, starting in the garden and extending outward to all of creation. For this reason, Adam was God’s assistant lord, exercising authority over creation: “Subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth” (Gen. 1:28)… he was to be lord and keeper of God’s created realm, bringing glory to the Creator as he sought to bear the image of God in servant faithfulness…

In “Genesis 2:15, we learn how man is to fulfill his calling: ‘The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.’ … Work. To work is to labor to make things grow… Keep. To keep is to protect and to sustain progress already achieved…

“God calls us to bear His image in the real world, in this garden that has become corrupted by sin but is being redeemed by the power of God’s grace in Christ. He calls us to do this by being leaders and servants in the ultimate cause of displaying God’s glory and bearing the fruit of God’s love in real relationships… Our calling in life really is this simple (although not therefore easy): We are to devote ourselves to working/building and keeping/protecting everything placed into our charge…

WORK: TO CULTIVATE AS A GARDENER

“avad, the Hebrew term translated in Genesis 2:15 as “work” … Adam was called by God to till and cultivate the garden so it would grow and bear an abundance of fruit. Thus, the command to “work” links up with the earlier mandate to “be fruitful … and fill the earth” (Gen. 1:28)… we are called to “work” whatever “field” God has given us. Men are to be planters, builders, and growers. A man’s working life is to be spent accomplishing things, usually as part of a company or other grouping of people. We are to invest our time, our energies, our ideas, and our passions in bringing good things into being. A faithful man, then, is one who has devoted himself to cultivating, building, and growing…

KEEP: TO PROTECT AS A SWORD-BEARER

“shamar, which is translated by such English terms as “watch,” “guard,” “protect,” “take under custody,” or “exercise care” … His calling to Christian men is similar: we are to watch over and keep safe all that the Lord has put under our care… our basic mandate as Christian men is to cultivate, build, and grow (both things and people), but also to stand guard so that people and things are kept safe – so that the fruit of past cultivating and nurturing is preserved… In our families, our presence is to make our wives and children feel secure and at ease. At church, we are to stand for truth and godliness against the encroachment of worldliness and error. In society, we are to take our places as men who stand up against evil and who defend the nation from threat of danger.”

Household Prayer: Filled with the Holy Spirit

Brothers, I’m praying we would be filled with the Holy Spirit and trusting in Him as we prepare our children, as we lead our households, and as we witness to the Kingdom of Heaven in this world. Praying for good health through cold, flu, and covid season.

“Prepare your children to stand up in the battlefield. Prepare your children to stand upon the Word of God. Prepare your children to have confidence in the Word of God. The greatest legacy we leave our children and grandchildren is not a great education, good and important as that may be… the greatest legacy, the best legacy, the most enduring legacy, is to teach them to appreciate, revere, and obey the Word of God.” A message from Dr. @MichaelAYoussef to Christian parents https://twitter.com/leadingtheway/status/1476346087296413698?s=21

“God loves to work through small bands of hard men… a local gang of hard men who can train together – theologically, physically, spiritually – and start to multiply through discipleship and household building. A psalm-singing, worship gang of holy troublemakers… a few good men dedicated to worship-centered culture building and defending the perimeter… The nuclear center of God’s plan for establishing order in the cosmos starts with one man and one woman coming together to produce offspring and live out God’s creational, sexual, hierarchical order (Ephesians 5)” Slaying the Feminist Leviathan by Eric Conn, Fight Laugh Feast issue 2.3 Fall 2021

Household Prayer: rhythm and consistency

“You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” Deuteronomy 6:7 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/deu.6.7.ESV

Brothers, I pray you had a blessed Christmas, and as we come to celebrating the start of a new year, I pray that you will find rhythm and consistency in family worship, devotions, and instruction. I listened to two young fathers give their testimony on growing up in Christian homes and what they experienced from their new fathers perspective. Rhythm and consistency were two keys mentioned.

How do we have these conversations as Christians?”

Schools Intentionally Dumbing Down Children for Control as Education Becomes Politicized: Alex Newman https://link.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/schools-intentionally-dumbing-down-children-for-control-as-education-becomes-politicized-alex-newman_4180130.html

“If you love your children… remove them from the public school system.”

“Education has come front and center in the United States, where parents are allegedly being targeted through counterterrorism technologies through a request from the school boards. At the same time, the Chinese regime is promoting critical race theory through its state-run media, right here in the United States—raising big questions on why this is happening. To learn more about how parents have gradually gotten less say in what their children are being taught, and how education can be weaponized as a political tool, we’ve invited investigative journalist and Epoch Times contributor Alex Newman to speak with us.”

Of What Use is the Law? Three Purposes https://founders.org/2014/11/24/of-what-use-is-the-law-three-purposes/?fbclid=IwAR1nzqZ4ojjesdXGn_yS1245LpSnfPBSqqn3n0c_DR7ySj_yH4Bw2ksks3k

“Recently, after our family had completed its daily devotional time together, my oldest son asked me a very insightful question: How do the Ten Commandments apply to us today if they were given so long ago in the Old Testament? … In his venerable systematic theology, the Institutes of the Christian Religion, Calvin set forth three “uses” for the moral law of God. The Lord of history has given His law, Calvin wrote, to serve as…”

“A mirror. Calvin argued that the law functions to expose our sin and unrighteousness. When a sinner looks into the mirror of God’s law, he sees himself as he really is: depraved, sinful, wretched, undone, lost and in need of cleansing, in need of a savior…”

“A restrainer of evil. The law of God functions to keep evildoers from being as bad as they otherwise might be. Thus, to some degree it serves to protect God’s people from the sinful machinations of the ungodly, Calvin argued…”

“A revelation of the will of God. Believers, who have been transformed by the gospel, Calvin wrote, need the law as well, certainly not as a means of salvation, but as a guide to sanctification. The law reveals God’s perfect righteousness and reveals that which is pleasing to him. A believer can come to delight in God’s commands, however, only after his heart has been regenerated by God’s grace through the gospel. Wrote Calvin…”

Household Prayer: Understanding the times and equipping our children

“The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.” 1 John 3:8 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/1jn.3.8.ESV

Brothers, Are we sons of Issachar, understanding the times we are in and knowing what to do about them? And are we preparing and equipping our children as citizens and ambassadors of the Kingdom of God in these times? Brothers I’m praying we make our best effort. I’m praying God the Holy Spirit would dwell in our children keeping them firm in the faith and courageous to stand in the truth.

Just a note on the role of Ambassador. We are sent to a nation to represent our King and His Kingdom, but if we don’t understand the culture and other dynamics in the nations we are sent to we may not be effective.

“Of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, 200 chiefs, and all their kinsmen under their command.” 1 Chronicles 12:32 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/1ch.12.32.ESV

“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.” Psalm 127:3-5 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.127.3-5.ESV

“Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.” Ephesians 6:4 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/eph.6.4.ESV

Why? What is going on? Our local and American culture is not what it was. It is post-Christian. We should consider this as we disciple our children.

“But Feucht’s boldness to stand up for the constitutional freedom of religion didn’t come without bitter attacks and threats of violence from people who claimed to care about saving lives. Opponents of his gatherings accused him of spreading COVID with his outdoor events, which forced him to hire security guards to protect him and his team after receiving death threats. Feucht has made it known that he plans to continue spreading God’s Word across the country, regardless of the pushback he may receive. In fact, he’s launching the “Awake America” revival tour this New Year’s Eve in Miami, Florida.” https://www.letusworship.us/

Audit commission to review delays in [Illinois] FOID [firearms owner ID] cards, concealed carry licenses, other findings with state police https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/audit-commission-to-review-delays-in-foid-cards-concealed-carry-licenses-other-findings-with-state/article_7952e1e6-5857-11ec-a32e-17077a60e785.html

“‘People can’t really go to court on it because the suit will be moot before the court ever has a hearing on it,’ Boch said. ‘So people really have no place to go other than just to wait for the state to finally catch up when it comes to fulfilling their duties under law.’ … ‘And I think sooner than later the FOID card is going to be ruled unconstitutional, but until we get to that point, we’ve got to live with what we’ve got,’ Boch said. Illinois is one of three states that require residents to get a state-issued ID to own a gun.”

January 6 Police Beating Victim Speaks: ‘I Could Have Died’ https://amgreatness.com/2021/12/08/150045/

“White, 39, found herself in the tunnel near Boyland—and her harrowing account describes nothing short of criminal misconduct by still-unidentified members of the D.C. Metropolitan Police department. Further, her experience bolsters allegations that police contributed or directly caused the death of a second unarmed female Trump supporter on January 6… According to McBride, the supervisor hit White at least 13 times with the metal stick and at least five times in her face with his fist. He then ‘spears and pokes [White] with his baton about the head, neck, and face so as to inflict maximum pain,’ McBride wrote. This happened as White tried to escape the tunnel numerous times. Another officer joined in and ‘starts beating [White] in the head with his baton, landing twelve strikes in seven seconds.’”

Xi Jinping Ordered a Genocide. Will There Be Consequences? https://www.frc.org/updatearticle/20211208/jinping-genocide

“A new trove of leaked Chinese government documents confirms what was only previously assumed: Chinese President Xi Jinping himself authorized the brutal crackdown taking place against the Uyghur people in the Xinjiang region. Dubbed the “Xinjiang Papers,” the hundreds of pages lend additional evidence that the Chinese government is committing crimes against humanity and even genocide… Witnesses that testified before the Uyghur Tribunal said that abortions were performed on all pregnant women before they entered the internment camps, even late into pregnancy. Detainees described horrific treatment. One woman said that guards would ‘take girls into the investigation rooms where there’s no camera, and 4-5 police officers rape one girl, one after another.’ The testimonies are difficult to listen to; each one makes the situation more difficult to ignore.”

Congressman Wants to End China’s Buying Spree of US Farmland https://link.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/congressman-wants-to-end-chinas-buying-spree-on-american-farmland_4147512.html

“China has been buying up agricultural land in the United States for years, a trend that a U.S. lawmaker said must end in order to safeguard the U.S. food supply chain… “China, frankly, is an adversary. We want to make sure that we control our food supply. I think it’s a natural, important, national security issue,” Newhouse said… Chinese firms have been buying U.S. agricultural land for the past decade. According to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Chinese investors controlled 191,652 acres in the United States worth about $1.86 million before the start of 2020, compared to 13,720 acres, worth $81,425, as of the end of 2010.”

Campaign for Working Families: The Left’s Culture Of Crime https://www.cwfpac.com/wednesday-december-8-2021-lefts-culture-crime-party-lawlessness-hispanics-move-right

“Just a few weeks ago, another thug who should have been in jail attacked a Christmas parade in Wisconsin, killing six and wounding dozens.”

“This weekend, there will be more mass looting in our major cities. More churches will be desecrated and vandalized. In some cases, churches will be the targets of arson. You may not have heard of these church attacks because our hostile left-wing media ignores them.”

“The people committing these horrible crimes are responsible for their actions. But there are many others who have created the culture that empowers these barbarians.”

“Leftist groups pushed the idiotic idea to release defendants without any bail requirements. So, all over the country, people who should be in jail for previous offenses are out committing new crimes.”

“Last summer, anarchy in the name of social justice swept our cities, and went largely unpunished. Leftist mayors and city councils turned our streets over to criminals. Anyone who spoke out against the rioting was, of course, labeled a racist.”

“Not surprisingly, only 27% of Americans think the country is headed in the right direction. The rest of us know that we must get back to law and order and reliable standards of right and wrong, or even worse days are ahead.”

AlertUSA: Wars and Rumors of Wars https://threatjournal.com/archive/tj12112021.html

“there are two places in the world where an authoritarian power is threatening to invade a small nearby democracy. That would be Russia on Ukraine and China on Taiwan… If you were a foreign leader hostile to the United States, how would you view the U.S. today? You would know that the U.S. on the backside of two disastrous wars, you know the U.S. civilian leadership is unpopular and weak, you know that the military is undergoing dramatic social change, and you know that the public is deeply polarized, distracted by a weakening economy, and unlikely to support any new military conflicts. Perhaps most important, you know that big changes are coming with America’s mid-term elections, and more so, with the next presidential race. Both China and Russia are keenly aware there is a narrow window in which to achieve any expansionist goals before strong leadership returns to the U.S. And that window is closing.”

Dominion – work and keep!

The Confessional County: Realizing the Kingdom through Local Christendom by Raymond Simmons https://a.co/dbVN7QG

“This dominion mandate has not gone away because it is part of the creation ordinance, “ordinances that define human ethics for all history,” according to John Frame.”

“Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.

Households Are Back By C. R. Wiley https://www.plough.com/en/topics/life/work/households-are-back

“Some things – educating the young, caring for the old or ill – might be just too precious to leave to the care of impersonal institutions. Other things might be just too risky to fully outsource – things like food security and sources of income are moving closer to home… exercising dominion, as in the dominion the first household was given, and as Tom Bombadil, in The Lord of the Rings, lives it out in Middle Earth. Now, I know what you’re thinking – domination is bad. But the word dominion shares a common root with the Latin word for home, domus, from which we get the word domesticity. Tom Bombadil’s dominion is not over other people but over his own home domain.”

“When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he assembled his 318 trained men, born in his household, and went in pursuit as far as Dan.” Genesis‬ ‭14:14‬ ‭CSB‬‬

John Newton: Exhibit “A” For Why We Should Catechize Our Children “Catechesis was one factor in helping John Newton (1725–1807) finish well… Newton was converted amid a providentially ordained storm at sea. But the foundation for his encounter with grace was laid those first seven years at home… Parents, catechize your children, and watch God work. It may please him to open their blind eyes now, or perhaps later. Indeed, memorized truth could eventually become a light in a dark place, as it was for the great blasphemer who became a Jesus lover.” https://founders.org/2017/08/17/john-newton-exhibit-a-for-why-we-should-catechize-our-children/

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me;
I once was lost, but now I’m found,
Was blind, but now I see.

Pretty profound assessment: is our Congress compromised by China?

“HOUSE COMPROMISED: Senate Majority Leader Schumber (D-NY) is blocking an amendment in the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act which would ban the import of products made using slave labor in China. He is blocking the measure based on a potential protest from the House Ways and Means Committee for violating the revenue generating clause of the Constitution, despite the Congressional Budget Office rejecting that claim. Sen. Schumer (D-NY) said, “It’s unfortunate that this misguided demand of a single Republican senator is preventing this important legislation to support our national security from moving in the Senate.” (AC: The inability of the Democratic controlled legislature to pass this amendment is a strong indicator the Chinese have compromised key individuals in Congress. Their expert use of lobbyist organizations and quiet “diplomacy” created a situation in which Far Left politicians will destroy their own history and culture for concerns over racism and slavery, but tacitly approve it in China. This is another sign of U.S. political weakness, pointing to a probable loss in future kinetic conflict with China as the Congress is responsible for declarations and funding of wars. – D.M.)”

“Tapper also pointed the finger at Hollywood and Disney in particular over its recent decision to film live-action ‘Mulan’ in Xinjiang, where more than 1 million Uyghur Muslims have been placed in internment camps. ‘The millionaires and billionaires of Hollywood and the NBA and the IOC and Wall Street are all so eager for Chinese cash, they’re pretending none of this is happening,’ Tapper insisted.”

Campaign for Working Families: China’s Latest Threat https://www.cwfpac.com/monday-december-6-2021-rip-bob-chinas-latest-threat-more-fake-news

“Communist China is aggressively trying to bribe countries on Africa’s west coast. The purpose is clear – Beijing is trying to develop naval bases there in order to threaten the east coast of the United States and challenge us in the Atlantic. Equatorial Guinea is the current target of communist China’s plans… as the Biden regime goes all in on the Green New Deal, communist China is taking more steps to corner the market on the resources that make ‘green energy’ possible. According to the Wall Street Journal, Beijing just approved ‘the creation of one of the world’s largest rare-earths companies [in order] to maintain its dominance in the global supply chain of the strategic metals.’ Biden’s mad push for ‘alternative energy’ is playing right into Xi Jinping’s hands. Green energy requires massive amounts of these ‘rare earth metals.’ Biden is making America even more dependent on communist China. But don’t worry. While Beijing is threatening the east coast and cornering the global market on vital resources, President Biden announced that neither he or any other U.S. government official will attend the 2022 Beijing Olympics, otherwise known as the ‘Genocide Games.’ I’m sure that ‘bold action’ has communist China really nervous. NOT”
