If you are doing the work of the Lord, it comes at a price. Evil will attack and mislead you. Why do you think that the Apostle’s prayer states:

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

The prayer of Jabez asks for the same protection:

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Some people sent to mislead us think they are trying to help us. How do we know the difference? The answer is simple:

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Since we are now surrounded by evil, what do you think evil is doing to the righteous? Don’t be misled, pray for guidance and do the work that the Lord has intended for you. Or you will face some hard questions on Judgment Day. If you let evil in, you will succumb: put on the armor of God for protection.

China’s defense ministry on Friday confirmed a fourth test of a new hypersonic strike vehicle was carried out last week.

“The scheduled scientific research and experiments in our territory [are] normal, and those tests are not targeted at any country and specific goals,” said the ministry in response to a report of the test published Thursday by the Free Beacon.

U.S. defense officials disclosed the latest test of what the Pentagon calls the Wu-14 hypersonic glide vehicle and said the most recent test, conducted June 7 in western China, involved extreme maneuvers by the high-speed strike weapon.

The advanced strategic strike weapon travels at speed of up to 10 times the speed of sound, or more than 7,600 miles per hour.

The Wu-14 test was carried out amid heightened tensions between the United States and China over Chinese aggression in the South China Sea.

…

U.S. intelligence has assessed the Wu-14 to be a nuclear delivery vehicle designed to defeat U.S. missile defenses, which currently are designed to counter ballistic missiles and warheads that have predictable trajectories.

Current U.S. missile defenses are not capable of countering maneuvering targets, such as the Wu-14. The U.S. government insists that its missile defenses are not designed to counter Chinese or Russian strategic missiles.

Just two weeks after California’s farmers – with the most senior water rights – offered to cut their own water use by 25% (in an attempt to front-run more draconian government-imposed measures), AP reports that the California government has – just as we predicted – ignored any efforts at self-preservation and ordered the largest cuts on record to farmers holding some of the state’s strongest water rights. While frackers and big energy remain exempt from the restrictions, Caren Trgovcich, chief deputy director of the water board, explains, “we are now at the point where demand in our system is outstripping supply for even the most senior water rights holders.”

With “the whole damn state out of water,” AP reports State water officials told more than a hundred senior rights holders in California’s Sacramento, San Joaquin and delta watersheds to stop pumping from those waterways.

The move by the State Water Resources Control Board marked the first time that the state has forced large numbers of holders of senior-water rights to curtail use. Those rights holders include water districts that serve thousands of farmers and others.

The move shows California is sparing fewer and fewer users in the push to cut back on water using during the state’s four-year drought.

The lack of faith in central bank trustworthiness is spreading. First Germany, then Holland, and Austria, and now – as we noted was possible previously – Texas has enacted a Bill to repatriate $1 billion of gold from The NY Fed’s vaults to a newly established state gold bullion depository…”People have this image of Texas as big and powerful … so for a lot of people, this is exactly where they would want to go with their gold,” and the Bill includes a section to prevent forced seizure from the Federal Government.

From 2011:

“The University of Texas Investment Management Co., the second-largest U.S. academic endowment, took delivery of almost $1 billion in gold bullion and is storing the bars in a New York vault, according to the fund’s board.”

The decision to turn the fund’s investment into gold bars was influenced by Kyle Bass, a Dallas hedge fund manager and member of the endowment’s board, Zimmerman said at its annual meeting on April 14. Bass made $500 million on the U.S. subprime-mortgage collapse.

“Central banks are printing more money than they ever have, so what’s the value of money in terms of purchases of goods and services,” Bass said yesterday in a telephone interview. “I look at gold as just another currency that they can’t print any more of.”

And now, after we noted the possibility previously, as The Epoch Times reports, Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law on Friday, June 12, that will allow Texas to build a gold and silver bullion depository. In addition, Texas will repatriate $1 billion worth of bullion from the Federal Reserve in New York to the new facility once completed.

I am an American who will be entitled to cast my vote for President of the United States Of America in the presidential election of 2016.  I am neither a Republican nor a Democrat, because I have lost confidence whether nominated candidates from either Party would intend to abide by the purposes and intent of the Constitution  Of The United States, and  to fully protect my interests as a citizen  of the United States  Of America. I am NOT a citizen of the World, subject to a New World Government controlled by world elitists and power mongers of any nationality or globalist political persuasion. I do not believe that this Nation  and its citizens should be or become world isolationists; but I do believe that its leaders  should never exercise the exclusive power or otherwise be permitted by a majority of its ‘VOTERS”  to  restrict or otherwise  usurp the  Constitutional  protections or prerogatives  of any American citizen for any perceived , invented or alleged reason, including,  but not limited to,  THE GREATER GOOD,  ETHNIC DIVERSITY,  GLOBAL EQUALITY OR HARMONY, ALLEGED HUMAN ENTITLEMENTS, or any other cause or goal which tends to place the interests of America  below or subservient to  central  world control or any interests inimical to the interests of this Nation.  For decades,  the citizens of this Nation have been told by its “leaders” and brainwashed to believe that  it cannot remain a respected world force unless it liberally shares its power and quality of life with “less fortunate “ Nations  led by divisive and corrupt  individuals who have cheated, stolen from,  and hated this Nation, but continually sell their perceived friendship and loyalty for huge  contributions  of largess from this gullible society, without so much  as a thank you; and perceived by such nations as an entitlement for their support or loyalty. History has established, again and again that when the largess stops or diminishes, so does the loyalty and support. Continue reading →

What will you do when the banks in this country blocks your accounts? What if the bank limits your withdrawals to $300 per day as is being discussed? Most people do not understand the law: you do not own the money once it is deposited in a bank. Did you ever hear the terms “bail-in”, “ZIRP”, “NIRP” or “haircut” in regard to people’s bank accounts in the past?

And why do you have money in fiat currency that is paying 0.1% interest? Convert to hard assets that you can eat, shoot, read or barter.

Macedonia Central Bank Blocks Greek Bank Withdrawals “In Case Of Grexit”

The bank runs (and capital controls) begin. Macedonia Central Bank Governor Bogov states:

• *GREEK BANKS IN MACEDONIA CAN’T WITHDRAW CASH: BOGOV
• *MACEDONIAN BANKS PROTECTED IN CASE OF GREXIT: BOGOV

How long before the rest of Europe follows suit and a bank holiday is declared Monday to “Cyprus” depositors?

He further added:

• *MACEDONIAN CENTRAL BANK SEES MAJOR RISKS FROM POLITICAL CRISIS

Just to be clear, this withdrawal halt is protection against a worst case scenario… BUT, by imposing capital controls you are ASSURING a worst case scenario occurs!!

OK this is really getting ridiculous.

Despite being the sacred keepers of the Catholic faith and trustees of the meek, the Holy See has just inked a deal with the US government putting the Pope in bed with the Internal Revenue Service.

It’s so bizarre you couldn’t possibly make this stuff up anymore.

The Vatican City has been forced into sharing information with the US.

So now, like a good little doggy, they’re obliged to cough up financial records on anyone they’ve ever had dealings with whenever Mr. Obama snaps his fingers.

I’m not sure this is what Pope Francis had in mind when he called for an end of “the cult of money and the dictatorship of an economy”.

Ironically, the oft-quoted Book of Proverbs says that “[T]he borrower becomes the lender’s slave.”

And this is true in almost all cases. Except, apparently, when it pertains to the US government.
