Dear Friends,
Lots of talk in the patriot community these days about securing silver and gold.
But from God’s perspective, we are living more in refining times, than we are in accumulating times. It’s time to draw closer to God than ever before.
From the prophet Zechariah:
And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God. (13:9)
From Moses:
The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination to the LORD thy God. (Deut 7:25)
From 2 Chron 1:7-12:
God appear unto Solomon, and said unto him, Ask what I shall give thee. And Solomon said unto God, Thou hast shewed great mercy unto David my father, and hast made me to reign in his stead. Now, O LORD God, let thy promise unto David my father be established: for thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude. Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great? And God said to Solomon, Because this was in thine heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of thine enemies, neither yet hast asked long life; but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge my people, over whom I have made thee king: Wisdom and knowledge is granted unto thee… (2Ch 1:7-12)
From Psalms:
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. (115:4)
From the prophet Isaiah:
In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; (2:20)
(Note: I grant that silver and gold are different than idols made of silver and gold. Still, a person can make an idol out of the wealth of silver and gold.)
From Proverbs:
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding. For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold. (3:13,14)
Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. (8:10)
Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice? She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths. She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors. Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man. O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing froward or perverse in them. They are all plain to him that understandeth, and right to them that find knowledge. Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it. I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions. (8:1-12)
How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver! (16:16)
A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold. (22:1)
From Acts:
Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. (3:6)
I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel. (20:33)
From James:
Your gold and silver is cankered; (5:3)

Lots of people expressing emotion and speculation over Trump’s nominations. Don’t let your heart be troubled. I’m going with Kash Patel. The only path forward is the military. There are too many traitors and too much corruption. Trump, Scavino and Patel (and others) have all signaled serious accountability coming. I think Trump is coming back as Commander before he comes back as President. If you want something to listen to, listen to THIS.
God bless,

P.S.
God has His ways. Read how Hezekiah prayed and God responded by sending an angel to wipe out the enemy (185,000 strong) at Jerusalem’s door, overnight!!
Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth. LORD, bow down thine ear, and hear: open, LORD, thine eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent him to reproach the living God. Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands, And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them. Now therefore, O LORD our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD God, even thou only. (2Ki 19:14-19)
And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. (2Ki 19:35)
My hope is in GOD:
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
(Psa 146:5)
Absolutely! God is in charge.
