Today in dystopia, war pundits have begun suggesting that the US could recruit sufficient troops for a ground invasion of Iran by offering young Americans debt forgiveness in exchange for enlisting. Reading by Tim Foley.

Why does healthy eating feel so hard—even when we know exactly what to do? Dr. Doug Lisle joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room to explain the psychology behind The Pleasure Trap and why today's food environment may be even more difficult to navigate than it was two decades ago. Dr. Lisle is the co-author of The Pleasure Trap and a longtime voice in evolutionary psychology. In this conversation, he shares his perspective on why highly processed foods can be so alluring, why shame and willpower are not enough, and how people can build a more sustainable whole-food plant-based way of eating. In this episode: Why the modern food environment can feel impossible to escape The psychology of pleasure, pain avoidance, and habit Why healthy diets can fail when they feel too restrictive Dr. Lisle's "vegan Bushman" approach to calorie density and satisfaction What he thinks about GLP-1 weight-loss medications How to judge dietary progress without obsessing over daily scale changes A preview of his upcoming book, Sherlock Holmes and the Secret of Life Dr. Lisle will also be joining Chuck at the Plant Powered Party in Las Vegas, September 4–6. Chef AJ, Dr. Michael Greger, Dr. Brooke Goldner, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Columbus Batiste, and many more will be there, too. Can't make it to Vegas?

The Audition Is Not the Bond Sustainable Presence vs. Performative Effort A bond dies when one person sells a self and the other shops for a feeling. The sale is the feathered act. The shop is the clipboard. Presence is what remains when both stop. The act is never the person. The act is a tool aimed at an end: safety, sex, money, company, status, the high of being picked. That is procurement. Manipulation by function, even when the performer calls it romance. If the effort collapses once the prize is in hand, it was never devotion. It was a campaign that reached its finish line. The judge is inside the same economy. A long script trained women to treat the strongest opening night as evidence of a man. Heat got read as character. Persistence got read as loyalty. Volume got read as value. That training makes a costume easy to buy. It does not make women uniquely foolish. Anyone shopping for a feeling is available to a costume. The costume works because somebody in the room is shopping. The wound staffs both jobs. It writes the act that gets you chosen. It writes the checklist that decides who is allowed to stay. People name that taste. People name that self-respect. A lot of it is old pain running hiring. Non-judgment is required for presence that lasts, and it is not a limp truce. It is the refusal to let the injury do the seeing. A veto that calls itself “standards” is still the wound. A collapse that calls itself “open” is still fear. Neither one can hold a life. The midweek is the audit the campaign cannot fake. Friday still has an audience. Saturday still pays you for arriving. Then the room goes ordinary. No soundtrack hired for the scene. The performer feels unemployed and calls it ingratitude. The spectator feels starved and calls it “they changed.” One was extracting a result. One was consuming a product. A deal that starts in costume collects in costume. Consciousness relating strips the feathers. Not as a vibe. As labor. You arrive with nothing to sell. You stay with no clipboard. You want without turning the other body into a prize. You see without putting them on trial. Effort does not disappear. Effort stops advertising. Two people put need, fear, and limit into the same hour. Neither waits to move first so they can remain the one who cannot lose. Some birds burn a short miracle, get picked, and leave the labor. Other birds have to match. Head. Stride. Timing. If you cannot stay in time, you are not a pair. The market sold the short miracle and called it desire. The match does not trend. It lasts. Under every question, one question. Were you offering yourself, or extracting a result? Were you meeting someone, or grading a show? If both of you take the feathers off tonight, is there still a reason to stay in the room? That is the bond. Not the opening night. The room that remains when nobody is selling and nobody is shopping. Women do not escape the feathers by sitting still. Stillness can be the act. A woman's campaign is often quieter, which is why it gets misnamed as “feminine” and protected from the same charge. The function is identical. Means to an end. Safety. Sex. Money. Company. Status. Being chosen without having to choose.

Your competence got you promoted, no doubt about it. But now that you're in a leadership seat, it might be the very thing that sabotages your leadership imprint.In this episode of The Inner Edge, executive coach Janet Ioli unpacks the fourth leadership trap: an identity so fused with personal competence that it becomes almost impossible to let go of, even after the job and scope have completely changed. The habits that earned the promotion are often the exact habits sabotaging it.Success used to depend on what you could personally produce, but now it depends on the opposite skill, and nobody hands you a new operating system when they hand you the title.Janet also draws on attachment researchers John Bowlby and Dan Siegel to explain why self-reliance under pressure is a wired-in safety strategy and shares the mirror question and practice that starts to interrupt it.This is the fifth episode in an eight-part series on the seven leadership traps, based on Janet's upcoming book, Escape the Traps (releasing October 2026).Chapters:00:00:00 The Trait That Got You Promoted Now Limits You 00:00:47 Three Leaders, One Hidden Pattern 00:04:31 The Identity Fused With Personal Competence 00:05:50 The Attachment Research Behind Self-Reliance 00:10:11 The Mirror Question: From Bottleneck to Multiplier 00:12:28 Next Episode: Trap 5Read the first chapter of Escape The Traps (available October 2026): https://mailchi.mp/5d2dbf42009c/escape-the-traps-chapterWhich trap is running you?

Today we are talking about something that I think we all need to know about… How to reset your dopamine. And before you think this is going to be one of those extreme episodes where I tell you to throw your phone into the ocean, stop drinking coffee, sit in a dark room for three days and eliminate everything fun from your life… That is absolutely not what we are doing. Because dopamine isn't bad. We need dopamine. Dopamine is part of what makes us want things. Pursue things. Work toward goals. Get up and go. The problem is that we are living in an environment where we can get enormous amounts of stimulation with almost zero effort. Open Instagram. Refresh your email. Check likes. Open TikTok. Eat something hyper-palatable. Buy something. Get a notification. Watch another episode. Click another video. Check your texts. Pick up your phone because you have 17 seconds with nothing to do. We have essentially eliminated boredom. And I think we need to talk about what that is doing to us. Because I don't think most people have a motivation problem. I think some people have made normal life too boring compared to the stimulation they consume all day long. Think about this. Working toward a goal is slow. Building a business is slow. Getting stronger is slow. Improving a relationship is slow. Reading a book is slow. Learning something difficult is slow. But your phone can give you novelty every half second. So what happens when your brain gets accustomed to incredibly stimulating rewards that require almost no effort? The things that actually build an awesome life can start feeling painfully boring. And THAT is what I want to change today. I've been going deep into what Andrew Huberman, Chris Williamson, Stanford addiction psychiatrist Anna Lembke, Peter Attia and Gary Brecka have discussed around dopamine, reward, pleasure, discomfort and motivation. And there is one massive theme that keeps coming up: We need to stop getting so many rewards without earning them. We need less cheap dopamine… And more earned dopamine. More accomplishment dopamine. More anticipation. More effort. More challenge. More doing hard things and feeling awesome afterward. So today we're going to talk about what dopamine actually does, why our modern environment can completely screw with our motivation, what people mean by a dopamine reset, and most importantly… How we actually do it. Not forever. Not perfectly. But intentionally enough that normal life starts feeling interesting again. Because imagine waking up and actually WANTING to work on your goals. Imagine sitting in your car without immediately opening your phone. Imagine finishing a workout and letting that accomplishment be the reward instead of instantly needing another stimulus. Imagine being fully engaged in dinner. Or a conversation. Or a walk. Or your kids. Or your work. That's what we're after. Not less enjoyment. More enjoyment from the things that actually matter. FIRST… WHAT IS DOPAMINE? Dopamine isn't simply the "pleasure chemical" This is probably the biggest misunderstanding. Dopamine plays a huge role in motivation, pursuit, learning, reinforcement and determining what your brain decides is worth pursuing again. Think less "this makes me happy" and more: "Go get that again." It's a molecule heavily involved in wanting and pursuing. Huberman explains dopamine in terms of baseline and peaks You have a baseline level of dopamine. Then certain experiences generate temporary increases above that baseline. The important part is what happens afterward. A big dopamine peak can be followed by a period where dopamine activity falls below where it was previously. This is part of why something incredible can sometimes leave you feeling strangely flat afterward. The higher and more frequently we chase enormous peaks, the more ordinary activities can start losing their appeal. Think about it like contrast If you eat incredibly sweet processed foods all day… A blueberry doesn't taste very sweet. There isn't anything wrong with the blueberry. Your reference point changed. The same general concept applies here. When your environment becomes filled with intense stimulation… Quiet feels boring. Reading feels boring. Work feels boring. Walking feels boring. A normal conversation feels boring. Your life didn't necessarily become boring. Your stimulation threshold changed. WHAT I MEAN BY "CHEAP DOPAMINE" I'm going to use the phrase cheap dopamine throughout this episode even though scientifically dopamine itself isn't cheap or expensive. What I mean is: A high-reward experience requiring very little effort. Things like: Endless short-form videos Constant social media refreshing Notifications Online shopping Gambling Highly processed foods Video games for hours and hours Constant snacking Drinking Continually checking texts Refreshing email Internet rabbit holes Watching episode after episode after episode Constant novelty And here's the key… None of those things has to be inherently evil. It's the dose. The frequency. And whether you've lost control over your consumption. There's a massive difference between choosing to watch a movie on Saturday night… And being literally unable to stand in an elevator for 25 seconds without checking your phone. That's the part I want us to notice. THE WORLD HAS REMOVED THE WAITING This might be one of the biggest problems. Almost everything used to have some friction. You wanted food? You cooked it. You wanted entertainment? You waited until your show came on. You wanted to talk to your friend? You called them. Maybe they weren't home. You wanted to buy something? You drove somewhere. You wanted information? You found a book. Now? Everything is immediate. Food. Entertainment. Shopping. Attention. Validation. Communication. Information. Novelty. Almost every human desire has an app attached to it. And our brains evolved in an environment where rewards generally required work. Now we can receive reward after reward while lying horizontally on the couch. That is a massive mismatch. THE PLEASURE-PAIN SEESAW One of my favorite explanations comes from Dr. Anna Lembke. She describes pleasure and pain almost like opposite sides of a balance. When we repeatedly push hard toward pleasure… Our brain tries to restore balance. And over time, you may need more of the stimulus just to experience the same effect. This is incredibly obvious with severe addiction. But I think it's useful to recognize much milder versions in ourselves. Have you ever: Opened Instagram for five minutes and 45 minutes disappeared? Finished a show and immediately needed another episode? Finished dessert and started looking for something else sweet? Checked one notification and then somehow checked four different apps? Picked up your phone without consciously deciding to? That automatic reaching is important. You aren't necessarily choosing anymore. You're responding. And I want us to get back into choosing. WHY NOTHING FEELS EXCITING ANYMORE Sometimes people say: "I'm unmotivated." "I don't feel like working." "I can't concentrate." "I'm bored." "I don't really feel excited about anything." Obviously there can be many medical, psychological and situational reasons for those feelings. But there is another question worth asking: How much stimulation are you consuming? Because if you're exposing yourself to novelty constantly… Your brain never gets a chance to be bored enough to create. Never bored enough to think. Never bored enough to solve a problem. Never bored enough to decide what you actually want. We're treating boredom like an emergency. I actually think boredom is incredibly productive. Some of my best ideas happen when there's nothing else coming into my brain. And we are filling every single empty pocket. DOPAMINE STACKING Huberman talks about something that I think is fascinating: stacking multiple dopamine-producing experiences together. Think about a workout. Exercise itself can be rewarding. But now we add: Pre-workout. Favorite playlist. Phone. Texts. Social media. Energy drink. Maybe stimulants. Maybe a reward meal afterward. Maybe we post the workout and check responses. We've taken one intrinsically rewarding activity and stacked reward upon reward upon reward. And his point isn't that you can never do those things. It's that you don't necessarily want every good experience in life turned up to 100 every single time. Sometimes train without the perfect playlist. Sometimes walk without the podcast. Sometimes drink the coffee without simultaneously scrolling Instagram. Sometimes eat without watching television. Separate the rewards. You don't have to eliminate pleasure. Stop supercharging every experience. LEARN TO LOVE EFFORT This might be my favorite part of the entire episode. We need to stop making the reward exclusively something that comes AFTER the work. "I'll work out and then I can have this." "I'll finish this project and then I'll reward myself." "I'll complete my work and then I'll scroll." There's nothing wrong with celebrating accomplishments. But we also want to train ourselves to associate the effort itself with something positive. Because if the entire purpose of doing something difficult is the reward waiting at the end… The work becomes something you're trying to escape. Instead: "This discomfort means I'm getting stronger." "This is hard because I'm growing." "I'm proud of myself for doing this when I don't feel like doing it." "This is what keeping promises to myself feels like." "This is who I am." That shift is huge. The workout becomes the win. Doing the work becomes the win. Keeping the promise becomes the win. USE DISCOMFORT ON PURPOSE This theme comes up across a lot of these conversations. We're living in an unbelievably comfortable world. Temperature-controlled houses. Food everywhere. Cars. Couches. Entertainment. Delivery. Escalators. Amazon. Everything is optimized to eliminate friction. But voluntary discomfort can be incredibly valuable. Exercise. Walking. Strength training. Running. Sauna. Cold exposure when appropriate and done safely. Doing something physically difficult. Getting outside when conditions aren't perfect. Taking the stairs. Having the difficult conversation. Doing the work you're avoiding. The idea isn't: "Suffering is good." The idea is: Stop organizing your entire life around avoiding discomfort. Because challenge followed by satisfaction is very different from pleasure followed by emptiness. One you earned. One you consumed. We need both fun and hard things. But modern life has heavily tilted us toward consumption. DON'T START YOUR DAY WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S DOPAMINE Here's something I think would change a lot of people's lives. Do not roll over and immediately hand your brain to your phone. Because instantly you've got: Texts. News. Instagram. Email. TikTok. Other people's emergencies. Other people's opinions. Other people's lives. Other people's accomplishments. Other people's bodies. Other people's vacations. Other people's businesses. Other people's problems. Before you've even decided what YOU want your day to look like. I would rather protect that first part of the morning. Wake up. Water. Sunlight. Walk. Workout. Journal. Think. Plan. Work. Whatever your routine is. Just don't immediately flood your brain with novelty. You should decide the direction of your day before an algorithm decides it for you. THE 2.0 DOPAMINE RESET Okay. Here is what I would actually do. Not some insane internet detox. A realistic reset. RULE #1: Identify YOUR cheap dopamine Ask yourself: What do I compulsively reach for? Not what does the internet tell me is bad. What has control over ME? Maybe yours is: Instagram. TikTok. Shopping. Sugar. Video games. News. YouTube. Email. Texting. Something else. Identify the top one or two. Don't try to become a monk overnight. RULE #2: Take a meaningful break from the biggest offender If something truly feels compulsive, consider taking a real period away from it rather than constantly trying to moderate it. Try deleting it for a week. Maybe two. Maybe 30 days. See what happens. You might be shocked by how often your hand reaches for an app that isn't there. That's valuable information. RULE #3: Stop filling every gap This is a HUGE one. We're bringing back empty space. Stand in line. Just stand there. Drive five minutes. No podcast. Walk around the block. No headphones. Sit outside. Do nothing. Take a shower without content playing. Cook dinner without a video. You are retraining yourself to tolerate a lower level of stimulation. And here's the funny thing… After a while it doesn't feel low stimulation. It feels peaceful. RULE #4: Create phone-free zones Pick places where your phone does not belong. Examples: Bedroom Dinner table Gym Family time Bathroom First hour of the morning Last hour before bed Don't rely purely on willpower. Change your environment. Leave the phone somewhere else. Make the bad habit inconvenient. RULE #5: Turn off almost every notification Notifications are someone else deciding when your attention moves. Think about that. Unless something legitimately requires immediate attention… Turn it off. RULE #6: Stop stacking everything Coffee + Instagram + television + food + texting? No. Pick one. Workout + podcast + scrolling between sets + energy drink + Instagram? Simplify it. Let an experience stand alone. Food can just be food. Coffee can just be coffee. A walk can just be a walk. A conversation can just be a conversation. RULE #7: Get your dopamine through pursuit This is the big replacement strategy. You can't just remove things. You need better things to move toward. Exercise. Building something. Learning. Working. Creating. Sports. Relationships. Adventure. Goals. Competition. Skill. Experiences. Meaningful challenges. Get obsessed with something difficult. That is completely different than being addicted to consumption. RULE #8: Do one hard thing every day I love this rule. Every day, intentionally do something that you'd rather avoid. Workout hard. Make the phone call. Send the proposal. Clean the closet. Have the conversation. Finish the project. Run the hill. Get into the cold water if that's safe for you. Walk when you'd rather sit. Do the thing you've been procrastinating. You start creating evidence: "I don't have to feel like doing something in order to do it." That is power. RULE #9: Prioritize sleep Your brain isn't operating independently of your body. If you're chronically sleep-deprived, everything becomes harder. Motivation. Impulse control. Training. Food choices. Emotional regulation. Focus. Peter Attia and Huberman both hammer sleep for a reason. If we're trying to optimize our brain while sleeping five hours… We're focusing on the wrong end of the problem. RULE #10: Morning sunlight and movement Huberman talks frequently about getting outdoor light early in the day to anchor your circadian system. I love pairing that with movement. Outside. Walk. Light. No Instagram. Let your nervous system wake up naturally. It's incredibly simple. And simple things done repeatedly tend to beat complicated hacks. THE 24-HOUR CHALLENGE Here is your challenge. For the next 24 hours: No phone for the first 30 minutes after waking. No social media until you've completed something productive. Turn off unnecessary notifications. No phone while eating. Take one walk without headphones. Do one difficult thing you've been avoiding. No double-screening. If you're watching TV, you're not also scrolling. Put your phone outside your bedroom tonight. Let yourself experience boredom. Notice every time you instinctively reach for stimulation. Don't judge yourself. Observe yourself. Because awareness is the beginning of changing anything. THEN TRY SEVEN DAYS Now let's level it up. For seven days: Reduce your biggest cheap-dopamine behavior dramatically. You don't need to eliminate all pleasure. In fact, please don't. Go to dinner. Laugh. Drink your coffee. Listen to music. Hang with friends. Enjoy your life. This isn't punishment. We're trying to reclaim our ability to enjoy NORMAL things. That's the goal. Less artificial stimulation. More real life. ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION Before you reach for something, ask: Am I choosing this, or am I escaping something? That question can completely change things. Why am I opening Instagram? Because I intentionally decided to spend 15 minutes enjoying it? Fine. Or because this task got difficult? Why am I eating this? Because I'm hungry and I want it? Fine. Or because I'm uncomfortable? Why am I drinking? Because I'm celebrating with friends? Or because I can't tolerate sitting with how I feel? Why am I checking email for the 47th time? Because I'm waiting for something important? Or because working on the project in front of me is harder? That pause between impulse and behavior… That's where your power is. CHEAP DOPAMINE VS EARNED DOPAMINE This is the easiest way I can summarize the episode. Cheap dopamine: Consume. Scroll. Click. Watch. Refresh. Snack. Buy. Escape. Earned dopamine: Build. Train. Create. Learn. Connect. Explore. Compete. Finish. Accomplish. The first category isn't evil. But if the balance of your life is overwhelmingly consumption… Don't be surprised when your motivation disappears. Shift the ratio. More creating. Less consuming. More doing. Less watching. More participating. Less observing. More real life. Less digital life. WE NEED ANTICIPATION BACK I think anticipation is disappearing. When everything is immediately available… There's nothing to look forward to. And looking forward to something is part of the fun. Plan the trip. Wait for Friday night. Save the amazing dessert for dinner. Don't buy everything the second you want it. Put the concert on the calendar. Build toward the race. Earn the reward. Delay things intentionally sometimes. The waiting isn't ruining the experience. The waiting IS part of the experience. YOUR LIFE SHOULD NOT NEED CONSTANT ENTERTAINMENT This might be the line I want you to remember. You should not need to be entertained every minute in order to enjoy your life. Your kids shouldn't either. We need boring car rides. We need afternoons with nothing scheduled. We need conversations without phones. We need walks. We need staring out the freaking window. We need thinking. We need daydreaming. We need opportunities for our brains to say: "Okay… what should we do?" Creativity often appears after the stimulation disappears. THE GOAL IS NOT LOWER DOPAMINE This is important. We're not trying to crush dopamine. We're not trying to become emotionless. We're not trying to avoid things that make us feel amazing. We're trying to protect our ability to feel amazing. That's different. We want the vacation to feel incredible. The concert. The accomplishment. The amazing dinner. The business win. The race. The adventure. The hug. The goal. The experience. We just don't need to manufacture an artificial mini-version of that feeling 800 times between breakfast and lunch. Leave some room. Let your baseline exist without constantly smashing the stimulation button. Here's what I think is so interesting about all of this. We have designed a world where almost everything that used to require effort can now be accessed instantly. And that sounds like freedom. But if we're not careful… Convenience becomes dependence. Entertainment becomes distraction. Pleasure becomes compulsion. And access becomes addiction. The answer isn't to reject modern life. I'm certainly not giving up my phone. I'm not giving up coffee. I'm not giving up Instagram. I'm not giving up amazing food or concerts or trips or all the fun things. I want MORE life. That's actually the entire point. I don't want to spend my life looking down at a screen getting tiny rewards when there are enormous rewards available by actually participating in life. I want the dopamine from doing the workout I didn't want to do. Building the business. Taking the trip. Making the memory. Trying something new. Getting really freaking good at something. Having an amazing conversation. Being completely present with my kids. Creating something I'm proud of. Doing something hard. That's the dopamine I want more of. And maybe the simplest takeaway from this whole episode is this: Stop making pleasure so easy and effort so optional. Let yourself work for things. Let yourself wait for things. Let yourself be bored. Let yourself struggle. Let yourself anticipate. Let yourself earn some of the really good feelings. Because when we stop trying to make every moment maximally stimulating… Something really cool happens. Normal life starts becoming awesome again. And that is how to be awesome at resetting your dopamine.

Corrections officers, police, firefighters, dispatchers, and veterans often carry stress that stacks up quietly over years: shift work, chronic hypervigilance, moral injury, and the constant exposure to trauma. In this conversation, Mike Marotta explains why so many first responders feel safest with coworkers yet struggle to let their guard down at home, even with the people who love them most. That gap can fuel isolation, relationship strain, and unhealthy coping strategies. For anyone searching for first responder mental health resources, PTSD support, or addiction treatment options, the key theme is simple: you do not leave these professions unscathed, and pretending you are fine usually makes the bill come due later.Mike Marotta is a former U.S. Air Force C-5 loadmaster and San Antonio police officer who helped build a department-wide wellness initiative before moving into behavioral health leadership at Warriors Heart. His story is honest about the slow drift many first responders recognize: shift work, accumulating trauma, family distance, and coping habits that quietly turn into a problem.We dig into what makes Warriors Heart a true fit for the first responder, corrections, and military communities, including correctional officers. It is a 42-day inpatient residential treatment program built for veterans, active duty, and public safety professionals, with no need to explain the culture. Mike explains the interrelated model that treats substance use disorder and co-occurring issues like PTSD and trauma at the same time, and why peer community is not a bonus feature; it is the backbone. “Connection is protection” is not a tagline here; it is a plan.You will also hear practical guidance you can use immediately: the warning signs that stress is turning dangerous (sleep, weight gain, anger, isolation, increased drinking, risky behavior), how to start a compassionate but direct conversation with a coworker, and what treatment really looks like day to day. We walk through structure, routines, the powerful Lifeline process, and how families and careers can change when someone comes back healthier and sober.If this hits close to home, share it with a partner, a squad mate, or a supervisor who needs better language for tough conversations, then subscribe and leave a review so more first responders can find real help.Contact Mike: mike.marotta@warriorsheart.com If you need help now - call (855) 610-1003Mike on LinkedIN - www.linkedin.com/in/mike-marotta-96607754Mike on FoxNews - https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/heroes-need-help-four-signs-first-responder-strugglingSend us Fan Mail Command PresenceBringing prisons and jails the training they deserve!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Even if you aren't typically an outdoorsy type, Oklahoma has trails so stunning they'll tempt you right out of your air-conditioned comfort zone. In this episode of the Only in OK Show, we head to Comanche County (just two hours from OKC) to explore the Elk Mountain Trail, tucked inside the breathtaking Charon's Garden Wilderness within the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge. At roughly 2.2 miles round-trip with 583 feet of elevation gain, this easy-to-moderate hike features natural granite staircases, minor bouldering, and dog-friendly paths. You'll step across some of the oldest exposed granite in the continental United States, starting at the scenic Sunset Picnic Area and climbing to a massive, mesa-like summit plateau filled with hidden caves, rock crevices, and 360-degree views of the surrounding plains. Plus, we break down native wildlife sightings—from bison and longhorn cattle to unique desert flora—and cover essential trail safety tips to ensure you aren't "That Guy" on the mountain. Listener Question: What do you think is the single best outdoor adventure in Oklahoma? Reach out and let us know!

On this episode of Reading With Your Kids, Jed welcomes two sets of guests whose books highlight just how powerful stories can be—for thrills, for connection, and for healing. First, Jed chats with Marissa Meyer and Tamara Moss, co-authors of the YA murder mystery The Escape Game. Set on a reality TV escape-room competition, the book follows Sierra, returning to the show where her sister Alicia was murdered—determined to unmask the real killer. Marissa and Tamara share how the idea was born from an art-heist escape room, how their 20-year friendship began with Sailor Moon fan fiction, and how writing across continents turned into a "24/7" drafting process. They talk about why teens—especially girls—are drawn to dark, twisty stories, the joy and challenge of co-writing, found family dynamics, and weaving humor and puzzles into a high-stakes mystery that keeps most readers guessing wrong. In the second half, Jed welcomes debut picture book author and longtime teacher Dina Hardt to celebrate Catch of the Day. Inspired by a photo of her brother fishing, the story was first written over 20 years ago and lovingly revised after her brother Anthony's passing. Dina describes how bringing the story back became part of her healing, seeing her brother's spirit in both words and illustrations. She reflects on the bond between grandparents and grandchildren, perseverance on the fishing dock, and the quiet faith of knowing we're not alone. Dina also shares how she gets her fourth graders excited about reading and writing, and why family read-alouds—at any age—truly matter.

Escaping the Beast's Trap (1) (audio) David Eells - 8/30/26 B. A. - 03/14/2012 (David's notes in red) (The foundation for this dream is that the D.S. is poisoning the food and water supply.) I dreamed I was walking down my lane, as the morning was dawning, to go up to the main road to the mailbox and get the newspaper. Just as I got to the road, I saw one of my neighbors getting into his truck. He drove up to me and said, “You'd better get to Walmart quickly; they are giving away free food, water, medicine, and gas”. (Trusting in the arm of the flesh. Psa.146:3 Put not your trust in princes, Nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. Pro.3:5 Trust in Jehovah with all thy heart, And lean not upon thine own understanding. Heb.12:16 lest there be any fornication, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright. I said, “My husband is asleep, so I will have to wait until he wakes up”. My neighbor said, “Well, I wouldn't wait too long or you might miss out”. Then he left. I went on over to the mailbox and got the newspaper. I got halfway back down the lane when I heard a voice say to me, “It's a trap; it's a trap. Don't go”. Jer.17:5 Thus saith Jehovah: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from Jehovah. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in Jehovah, and whose trust Jehovah is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, that spreadeth out its roots by the river, and shall not fear when heat cometh, but its leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. I asked, “What's a trap?” The next thing I knew, I was standing in a Walmart parking lot. The lot was packed like it always is, so I asked what was wrong. I heard that same voice say, “Look at the people”. So I looked at the people. They were coming out of the store with grocery carts full of items and getting into their cars and leaving. I asked again, “What's wrong?” The voice said, “Look closer at the people”. So I zeroed in on the people, and all of a sudden I noticed they were all wearing dog tags. (Symbolizing trading needed free stuff for freedom.) Then I found myself inside the store. There was a long line on the left side of the store against the wall. They had it set up like at the airport with the roped lines, so the flow of people would be orderly. The store was full of products and people were shopping, so everything looked normal to the people in line. However, I noticed that the people shopping were wearing dog tags like the people in the parking lot. My oldest brother had been in the military years ago, so I knew what these dog tags were. I said to myself, “These are soldiers dressed up as civilians”. (Government giveaways are designed by the beast system to trap you into trusting in them until you are addicted in your mind. The flesh pots of Egypt were a government giveaway to the slaves to control them. The people who own the megastores are owned by the same people who own the government and military. Bondage to them is the spiritual mark of the beast. Pharaoh will rule the slaves.) All of a sudden, I was standing at the back of the store. The store manager was standing in front of a set of doors marked Personnel Only. I noticed he was wearing dog tags as well. (Government and big business are one in socialism.) He was telling the people that only four people at a time could go with him to be processed to get their vouchers for the free stuff. He had them line up two on the left and two on the right behind him. As they went through the first set of doors, there was a breezeway area, then another set of metal doors. He told them that when they went through the next set of doors, two women would be sitting at a desk, and they should go up to the desk and wait. As soon as these people got up to the desk and the second set of doors closed, four very large men (they looked like sumo wrestlers) came up behind these people, put their hands over their mouths and gave them some kind of a shot. (The giants of their own flesh will bring into bondage those who do not believe the promises but trust in men. Flee into the wilderness where God provides out of heaven through faith and the old man is dead at the Red Sea. Php.4:19 And my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.) Then these soldiers took their driver's license and car keys from them. (I believe the driver's license represents taking away their identity or place in Christ, and the car keys represent taking away their freedom; they NOW belong to the beast -- lock, stock and barrel!) (At first they will want your Social Security number and income to receive food; now it will be the Digital ID; then the Mark will make it easy for you. This gradualism is the way to harden one's conscience. Remember when they mandated the vaccinations, and you could not travel, go back into work, shop in stores, dine out, etc., unless you were vaccinated and everyone was forced to wear a face mask? This was a type of their ways to institute the Mark.) The two women sitting at the desk stamped these people on their right hands. (Representing the beastly works of flesh.) (Rev.13:16) And he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead. I got closer so I could see what the stamp read; it read, Bus #1, Section A. Then these people were led out the back door onto a waiting bus. These people couldn't put up a fight, as the shot they were given made them like zombies and they could barely walk. (They stumbled out of the way, put to sleep by demons using the lusts of the flesh.) These people's, or victims', driver's licenses were placed in a box that read, Bus #1, Section A, as well. I'm sure this was so they could keep track of who they were and where they were taking them. Their car keys were given to some soldiers standing close by. (They are no longer individuals using cars but members of the collective riding buses; they are one in the beast body.) I decided to follow these soldiers with the keys to see what they were going to do. They found these people's cars and drove them off the parking lot. I then went back to the bus to see what was happening there. I noticed they started taking people to the back of the bus and working their way forward. When they would get two people in a seat, there was a large harness that came over these people's shoulders. Then the soldiers reached down and grabbed another harness that went through their legs, and it all joined together at their waist and locked. There was no way these people could get up. (They will be spiritually brought into bondage and few will escape. They will either deny the Lordship of Jesus over them and serve the collective or confess Jesus before men and lose their beastly life for their heavenly life.) Then, again, the next thing I knew, I was standing in a large field off a dirt road. This field was full of empty car carriers. I watched as the soldiers drove the people's cars onto the field and up onto the car carriers. When the car carriers were full, they drove away. I lost count of how many there were, as there were so many. I just stood there trying to digest everything I had just witnessed. I closed my eyes and when I opened them again, I was back home on my lane. (Many will lose their individuality and freedom as the economy crumbles through mismanagement, war, natural catastrophes, and plots of the DS globalists. The so-called “Golden Age” does not fit with the Rev.13 mark of the beast.) I stood there thinking how clever that whole process was; they didn't have to go to the people. They devised such a clever way to have the people come to them without putting up a fight, like lambs to the slaughter. (It is natural for those who have no faith to gravitate to the beast for salvation in all forms, for they worship him.) Also, I thought to myself, they have been planning this for a long time. Walmart would be a very logical staging area, as they provide food, clothing, supplies, water, medicine and gas. They are always advertising it as a one-stop shop; now we know why! I took another look at Walmart. For some reason, I looked at it in reverse from the dash out, and it reads “Mart law”, or martial law! Then I woke up. (They will be the number one store under martial law. Mom-and-Pop stores will continue to die. Cheap Chinese labor and materials will win. An executive order was signed on March 16, 2012, giving the Executive Branch the power to control and allocate all energy, production, transportation, food and even water resources by decree. They have control over all food, farms, livestock, farm equipment, fertilizer and food production across America.) A secret behind Walmart's rapid expansion in the United States has been its extensive use of public money. This includes more than $1.2 billion in tax breaks, free land, infrastructure assistance, low-cost financing and outright grants from state and local governments around the country. “It's a Trap” Henry Jansen - 03/29/2012 (David's notes in red) I recently had a few interesting experiences, one of which involved David in a dream. Because of the common theme of “a trap or being trapped”, I thought I would share it. Here is some background: My work requires me to travel to our company's project sites once or twice a month. The trips can be a few hours long, so I normally listen to UBM teachings. One of the ladies who works for me (a Christian lady I will call “S”) sometimes travels with me to the site when she is required to discuss some things with the site staff to complete her work. As we are both Christians, I play UBM teachings during our trips, and “S” has listened to these with interest. Until recently, “S” was a smoker (with a bad cough and high blood pressure) and no amount of prodding from other staff to quit could convince her to do so. She has a twin sister who is also a Christian and her exhortations to “S” to quit smoking also bore no fruit. “S” tried to quit a few times in the two years that I have known her but always fell back into the habit again. I noticed this going on but didn't feel led to say or do anything about her smoking habit. About a month ago, I was planning to visit a site again, and “S” was going to travel with me. The night before the travel date, the Lord put it upon my heart to dig up an old UBM teaching from March 2008 on smoking and play it during our trip to the site, which is what I did. The Spirit brought a strong conviction upon her during the teaching, and about halfway through it, she took her cigarettes and lighter out of her handbag and handed them to me. She said she never knew the things about smoking that you taught and realized that she was in bondage to demons. She suddenly had a strong urge to be free from this bondage. We stopped at a town halfway to the site. I gave her the cigarettes and lighter, and she threw them both into a trash can. That was the last time she touched the stuff. When we returned to the office later that day, the Lord put it upon my heart to pray with her, commanding the spirits of bondage to leave her and not return. We also asked the Lord to deliver her from any withdrawals, and she didn't have any. The next day, she came to work with a bright, sunny face, saying she felt as if a weight had lifted from her. Through your teaching, the Lord has made her free from the bondage of smoking forever. Since then, she also started to listen to UBM Bible study teachings regularly. The Lord has also led her through various events recently to remind her of her deliverance and she is now ministering to bring others out of this bondage. One event she had was driving to a site in a car that was owned by a heavy smoker. Driving in the smoke-smelling car made her violently ill, and she had to stop to be sick along the way. The Lord has a sense of irony, doesn't He? Now for the next bit: About a week ago, “S” asked if we could have a meeting. She told me that she was awakened at around 3:00 am by a voice saying the words, “It's a Trap. It's a Trap”, repeated a few times. Because of the urgency of the voice and her anxiousness over it, she couldn't sleep and got up and listened to the latest UBM Bible study, which happened to include an interpretation of a dream received about being Trapped by the Beast. (The above revelation was an amazing confirmation that the same words were used in this dream as in “S”'s revelation: “It's a trap. It's a trap. Don't go”.) I thanked her for telling me and left it at that, thinking that I would listen to the UBM teaching she mentioned to hear what it was about. I have not listened to this teaching yet. Then, a few days ago, I had this dream: I was working for David Eells. David asked me to go to a meeting that he was scheduled to go to in town. He could no longer attend, as he had other commitments. (It appears as though I will not fall into a government sting operation.) I knew that the meeting was with government officials and that the meeting was about the government wanting to sell weapons to David. The meeting time was set for 8:30 am. (Praise the Lord that I don't want any of the world's weapons.) On the day of the meeting, I was at an office in a town, and I got there on my bicycle. While attending to my activities in town, I forgot about the meeting I was meant to attend on David's behalf that day. When my activities in town were completed, I got on my bicycle to ride back to the center of town. While riding on my bike, I suddenly remembered that I was supposed to attend that meeting for David. I looked anxiously at my watch and noticed that it was 8:10 am, so, fortunately, it was not too late yet. I then suddenly remembered (the following events actually happened ...) a meeting I had with one of my work colleagues, during which she told me that a voice woke her early one morning (about 3:00 am), saying the words, “It's a trap. It's a trap”, repeated a few times. Because of the urgency of the voice, she couldn't go back to sleep and instead decided to listen to the latest UBM Bible study teaching. It just happened to be the teaching Trapped by the Beast. She was so startled by the whole experience that she told me about it the next morning at work. As of the writing of this dream, I have not yet listened to that Bible study. In the dream, I remembered the meeting with my colleague and what she had said, and then it suddenly dawned on me that the meeting with the government was a “trap”. The government was trying to set a trap for David and this meeting was part of that trap. I suspected that the government was planning to set up a meeting with real arms dealers and then planned to arrest everyone who attended the meeting. (I have no need or desire for physical arms. It appears that the government will seek to try to trap church leaders into giving them proof that they were guilty of taking up arms against the government in order to imprison them.) No amount of explaining that the meeting was to be with government officials will matter. I then realized I had to let David know as soon as possible and cycled to what I thought was the center of town. I looked for a place to park my bicycle and noticed two separate sets of stairs (made from concrete or masonry) leading down from the level I was standing on to some other level of town far below me. I tried to take my bike down the first set of stairs but quickly realized it was very steep, with narrow steps and dangerous; if you stumbled, you could be severely hurt. I then took the second set, which had a gentler slope, to the bottom. When I got to the bottom, I tried to park my bicycle, but all the bicycle parking spots were full, and I couldn't leave my bike safely anywhere. No matter where I looked, I couldn't find a parking spot for my bicycle. They were all taken. This made me very frustrated. (A sign of there being many people in the underground Church.) I then cycled to David's place. When I got to where I thought David lived, I didn't see a house but noticed a shed, which I understood was a workshop. I also “knew” that David drove a car and his parking garage was underground. I remembered seeing the garage door open at some previous time. I knew the garage door hinged up out of the ground when it opened, and one had to drive into a hole in the ground to park the car. I couldn't see the garage door when I arrived and realized it must be closed because when the garage door was closed I couldn't see the garage at all, as it was covered with vegetation and level with the ground (camouflaged). I pushed my bike into the workshop to look for David and to find a place to park my bike. I noticed an old bike rack inside the workshop with some kids' bikes and an adult bike (similar to mine) taking up all the slots in the old bike rack. The bikes were covered with dust and looked like they hadn't been used for a long time. (Could it be that my spiritual children have outgrown their “kids' bikes”?) I couldn't find any room to park my bike. I saw a man whom I knew as “Newman” (“new man” in Christ) and asked him if he had seen David. He said he had seen him twice that day. Tribulation, Government, the Mark & Evangelism Sultana - 09/17/2007 (David's notes in red) The year before 9/11, I dreamed of four explosions. I told my husband that the World Trade Center was blown up and I saw an explosion on the ground, then I saw the Pentagon explode. (fulfilled) In 1998, God sat Kevin down and said, “The government will be altered in a way that it is not overthrown, but our freedoms will change. All the people who hated God's people will now have the ability to persecute them and even kill them like they could not in the past. (Update: Kevin did hate and kill God's people and died for it.) This was very similar to martial law; military police will evolve on a global scale. People will have to choose whether they will cooperate with this government or suffer without its benefit (the mark). Many professing Christians will give their allegiance to the new system of government in order to keep their freedoms and benefits in this world. In spite of the persecution of the body of Christ, personal evangelism and missions will thrive during this time. Finances will flow for missionaries and relief of suffering churches like never before (which does not make sense to me). (Father has already planned for this time and we will have every need met.) However, the compromising believers will receive a demonic guilt because they denied the Lord and their brothers in order to keep their comforts. They will not be able to repent of what they have done, nor will they escape the torment they will feel for denying Christ (reprobation from the mark). The pressure will be so great that you will not be able to prepare for it then. Now is the time to sell out for Christ and give your very all to Him. Preparing now is the grace to be ready for that time”. Escape from Walmart Cassandra – 8/17/2021 Dear brothers and sisters in Yahushua, I had a brief dream last night of escaping a Walmart. Others have mentioned that many of the Walmart stores have been [or will be] converted to FEMA camps, and I remember reading about that, Jade Helm, and even railroad tracks leading out of the Walmarts. Also, people being sprayed with something when entering, and the hand scanners for MOTB payment. Walmart/Martial Law. (That's what B.A saw too.) My dream was brief; my daughter and I were in a Walmart (which, in real life, I would never do; I stopped going to those places years ago; stay out of the Walmarts!) and as we went to leave, I noticed HEAVY MILITARY-TYPE SECURITY near the entrance and the checkout areas. It looked sort of like the riot police, except it was even more advanced. Black colored armor; maybe some were even robots or hybrids. Scary-looking, and there were 5-7 around each checkout area. Somehow we drove out the front door in a car, bypassing the checkout areas to escape. I took some different route as we left, in case I was being followed or tracked. Now that I think about it, I have had another dream of escaping a Walmart, but this one, I was just in the parking lot area and knew not to go in, but that I needed to escape the area. End of dream. Note: I had a strong feeling others were unable to get out or escape from Walmart. It could be that the military/security presence was there due to inflation and scarcity of items. I am not sure. It felt more ominous than that, but I have also read that as grocery prices inflate and food becomes more scarce, food trucks and grocery stores will need extra security. See related article: FEMA Rounding Up “Radical Christians” into Closed Walmarts 8/4/2017, Jennifer Schultz (link) Had another dream last night. It dealt with FEMA, Walmart, and Trump and Obama. It started out with FEMA buses coming into every town, rounding up the “radical Christians,” as the director told an agent who was rounding up the people. They were taken to Walmart. More stores started closing due to false “plumbing issues,” like the ones down south did. The UN and FEMA were working together. Pastors were ratting out people in their church who didn't vaccinate, who believed in the 2nd Amendment, and who were truly on fire for God. Then I saw Obama talking to “ISIS.” He threw down a picture of Trump and told the sniper/shooter, “I want him to be next.” There was a bullseye in the middle of his forehead. Before I woke up, I saw dark clouds coming across America along with bugs that were huge, and they had on armor with razor-sharp teeth. (The shots were found to cause cancer from bugs in the bloodstream.) When I woke up, I asked God if it was from Him. The verse about ‘what is hidden in darkness will come to light' came into my head. Luke 8:17 KJV For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad. Almost Trapped In a 15-Minute City Cassandra -12/12/2013 The time this was received, 1:30 a.m., 130 in Strong's Greek, is shedding of blood. I had a dream I was riding a bicycle on a freeway leading into Minneapolis. Normally there are no bicycles on a freeway. All of a sudden, the road was closed. Those of us on bikes (I think bicycles may represent homelessness, or poor people) (or lack of gas or EMP) had to get off of them and leave them and go into a certain area while the road was being fixed, or so I thought at first. I tried calling my friends to drive and come and get me, but then realized they would be stuck there too. The area behind the construction reminded me of a bad area in Minneapolis. I soon realized that all of the apartment buildings looked vacant. Those of us who had been taken off the road were moved into a building. Others and I were forced off the freeway. There seemed to be a “nice woman” there showing us buckets of supplies. The buckets were from Trader Joe's, a local grocery chain, and I have seen these buildings going up with Trader Joe's and also a Lunds on the ground floor of these apartments. The buckets had a roll of toilet paper in them and not much else. I think at that point, it dawned on me that this was a 15-Minute City and they were trapping us. I lied in my dream, which I try not to do (forgive me, Father, for this), and told the “nice lady” my ride was there. She let me leave. I saw a few others escaping and quickly followed them. I saw our bikes and grabbed one, but the front wheel had been bent (intentionally, so we couldn't escape?). I grabbed another bike, and it worked. End of dream. These 15-Minute Cities are real, folks. I have seen several of these apartment buildings in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. They are easy to spot because they have grocery stores underneath. You do not want to move to or get trapped in these places. This ties in with a dream someone else had where, when you see the cities getting ready to be bombed, you have about half an hour to flee and get out. Those that get stuck there will be rounded up and moved somewhere. Those stuck in these cities will be forced to be a part of the beast system, or likely be sent to a FEMA camp for martyrdom. I just had an awful flashback; a real memory. Several years ago, I saw a huge truck carrying what looked like human-sized portable incinerators. I am also reminded of a recent story in the news of all the homeless in San Francisco disappearing the night before world leaders were coming in for a meeting. 11/11/23. This is coming to the US. Look at what they have allowed in Israel. B.N. is a war criminal. They know the areas of land they want and what their plans are. They will remove anyone standing in their way and have no regard for human life. These plans have been in place for a long time. Everything is in place. The good news is that Jesus is with us. He is with the poor. He will be with us in captivity and even in martyrdom. Are you ready if this is your fate? Are you ready to flee your home? There will be Goshen's or safe havens for some. Are you ready spiritually for all that is coming? Betrayal from your nearest and dearest? There have been so many messages warning to brace yourself and be ready. Pray for help on this; I do as well. Pre-trib rapture is a lie; repent if you have allowed yourself to be deceived by false prophets, teachers, and preachers. Wake up to the truth. Please heed the warnings given on this site, brethren…. Cassandra. So, how do we prepare to escape these traps and captivity? Escaping the Tribulation Mark Sandy Shaw - 11/08/2011 (David's notes in red) When I had this dream on November 8, 2011, I knew that we were already in the middle part of tribulation. They were already making it mandatory that everyone get the mark. We were still where we live now, but we were getting ready to move up on “the hill”. Michael (Meaning “who is like God”) had come through the side or sunroom door and I saw him. Then he said, “The last one is gone”. I'm not exactly sure what that meant, but at the time I felt that there was no one left at the school. (The first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation are for training, just as it was in Jesus' ministry before Acts. Then the disciples or Two Witnesses went forth two-by-two into every place Jesus was about to come.) I knew that we were preparing to go to “the hill” (representing escaping the mark in Zion). Then the Lord took me from this house to a room. In the room, there were a bunch of men in suits (stuffed shirts is what I used to call them) and you could tell that they had much money and were up to no good. They couldn't see me, though. (Invisibility, or the secret place of the Most High, will protect many from the Beast's plots.) They were talking about the barcodes that are on everything we buy. While listening to them talk about the barcodes, the mark that people took was linking them up to all kinds of things electronically, including the barcodes. They showed an instrument that couldn't have been more than 4” wide and 7” long. This machine had buttons to push and a little screen. They could tell, by pointing this machine at a house, who bought what and who lived there because of the codes and marks they had accepted. They also knew who did not buy items in your house; these items were either given or traded. This was how they found out who didn't have the mark. When they pointed this machine at a house and saw a bunch of store-bought stuff there, and no one in the house had accepted the mark, then the soldiers would go in there and take the people to the FEMA camps. The FEMA camps were changed from an earlier use to now house these prisoners who refuse the mark. It reminded me of the Nazi concentration camps of Hitler, where the Jews were sent to be slaughtered. After hearing these men talk about all this, I was at “the Hill”. I knew that we were already living at “the Hill”. There were many from the local UBM at “the Hill” and some other faces I hadn't seen yet. While we were up there, I was very upset. I kept hearing a man, as if he was standing next to me, crying out to God for help. I was standing in a room with David Eells, Michael Hare, another brother, and my husband. I was crying and telling them that I kept hearing this man crying out to God, and we needed to go back down and get him. I told them that I knew where the house was. I was pleading with them to go back down because it was dangerous times to do that. David, Michael, and I got into a small car that I had not seen before. We then drove to the house. The house and neighborhood around it were empty. Michael asked, “Are you sure this is the house? Because all of these look empty.” (The underground railroad will once again be in use to rescue others from the mark and beast. “Righteousness delivereth from death.”) I said, “No, this is the house. As we go in there will be a stairway. Behind this stairway is another hidden door leading down to another stairway. They are in the basement. I had only heard a man crying out, but I had a feeling that his family would be with him.” But there were even more people than I thought in the dream. It was him (the only male), his wife, and children. Then, there were two more women and their children (whose husbands had been killed). So, we all packed into this small car. Almost all the children were in the trunk, and we were all sitting in laps on top of laps. This was so we could all fit into the small car. I was driving the car. As we pulled out, we looked, and the soldiers were entering the house. But we kept going. When we had driven just a few miles, soldiers pulled us over. I told everyone in the car to be quiet and not to say a word, to let me do all the talking. No matter how long it took, to be quiet. I had some kind of papers, and I was showing them to the soldiers. The soldiers knew they needed to accept those papers, but they didn't want to. (So they all escaped to the Hill.) Who Will Escape to the Hill? Psa.15:1 Jehovah, who shall sojourn in thy tabernacle? Who shall dwell in thy holy hill (Zion)? 2 He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, And speaketh truth in his heart; 3 He that slandereth not with his tongue, Nor doeth evil to his friend, Nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor; 4 In whose eyes a reprobate is despised, But who honoreth them that fear Jehovah; He that sweareth to his own hurt, and changeth not; 5 He that putteth not out his money to interest, Nor taketh reward against the innocent. He that doeth these things shall never be moved. Psa.24:1 The earth is Jehovah's, and the fulness thereof; The world, and they that dwell therein. 2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, And established it upon the floods. 3 Who shall ascend into the hill of Jehovah? And who shall stand in his holy place? 4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; Who hath not lifted up his soul unto falsehood, And hath not sworn deceitfully. 5 He shall receive a blessing from Jehovah, And righteousness from the God of his salvation. 6 This is the generation of them that seek after him, That seek thy face, [even] Jacob. Psa.125:1 They that trust in Jehovah Are as mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abideth for ever. 2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, So Jehovah is round about his people From this time forth and for evermore. 3 For the sceptre of wickedness shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous; That the righteous put not forth their hands unto iniquity. 4 Do good, O Jehovah, unto those that are good, And to them that are upright in their hearts. 5 But as for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, Jehovah will lead them forth with the workers of iniquity (the mark). Peace be upon Israel. Isa.43:1 But now thus saith Jehovah that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed thee; I have called thee by thy name, thou art mine. 2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 3 For I am Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour; I have given Egypt as thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in thy stead. 4 Since thou hast been precious in my sight, [and] honorable, and I have loved thee; therefore will I give men in thy stead, and peoples instead of thy life. (Those who will take the mark.) 5 Fear not; for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; 6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back; bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the end of the earth (to the Holy Hill); 7 every one that is called by my name, and whom I have created for my glory, whom I have formed, yea, whom I have made. America in Darkness after Judgment David Eells – 8/26/26 In the morning when I was in the midst of waking up, I had a dream that turned into a vision. I believe it was about Christianity in the U.S. I was standing on a line between two visions of the near future. Part 1 was to my right and Part 2 was to my left and a result of Part 1. Part 1 was a large room representing the U.S. Many chandelier lights were hanging from the ceiling and were very bright. (I believe this may be the EBS revelation of all the criminality that has been done in darkness being revealed to the people. Also the Man-child reformers will be anointed to share truth, which will anger criminals of church and state.) While still standing on the line, I looked to the left or Part 2. It was the room, but the lights were gone including the fixtures. Then when I looked straight ahead down the line and just past the two rooms, I saw a tornado. (This is what I believe caused the darkness and represented judgments, probably the ones we have been discussing as coming soon: earthquakes and volcanic activity through the Ring of Fire. These judgments will destroy and plunder the new economy that the right wing is now creating. Of course, the left would blame the right for this and harden and change many minds. A tornado also represents wind turning around abruptly to go in the opposite direction. Winds of doctrine or teaching represent a change of mind, probably of the people in the U.S. For those who will be righteous, this will be a good change of mind, but for those who will be wicked, it will be a bad change of mind. There is a polarization happening in the U.S. and the world between left and right.) When I saw the tornado, I ducked behind the wall of the second time period and felt safe. Please remember that the people who considered themselves the people of God sided with the Roman Beast to persecute and kill the disciples of Jesus. Ecc.1:9 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Mat.24:9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name's sake. Now let me share the following revelation: From: “REVIVAL List” Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 Subject: [revival] THE END of EMPIRE AMERICA - Robert Holmes NOTE from Mario Liu: On 16 October 2008, I was in a prayer meeting with Robert Holmes and Kurt Pfanstiel, who was visiting us from the USA. Robert shared with us a vision he had recently received. Robert had a vision of Alexander the Great standing victorious in the middle of the USA. We discussed Robert's vision in some details. Alexander the Great in the vision was a foreign looking man. He was surrounded by many US citizens, who seemed to welcome Alexander as their leader. I asked Robert whether there were any signs of violence and Robert said, no. I remembered God has given similar visions before about Alexander the Great conquering USA and we did not understand God's meaning then. Now that God repeated this vision, I felt that there is significance in this and asked God for more revelations, such as which country is conquering USA, who is Alexander, etc. But God did not give us any clear revelations apart from saying that “Alexander took Babylon without bloodshed.” After the US election, Robert recognized that the Alexander he saw was Obama. Then God revealed more information. These revelations are enclosed below... We need to pray. THE END of EMPIRE AMERICA by: Robert I Holmes (David's notes in red) This article will cover a range of issues which have been brewing for six to twelve months in my heart. History will judge America as an empire. That empire is coming to an end. The election of Barak Obama is a significant prophetic event, marking the sunset of that empire, and the rising of other powers in the earth who represent ancient powers and civilizations. (But few know that B.O. still sits at the top of his leftist empire pulling the strings. He recently proudly admitted to being Biden's head.) These ideas have consequences for believers living both in the US and the countries that rely on her (like Australia). … Barack Obama became President of DS ruled Babylonian America. Although he severely weakened America, he did not conquer her during his presidency. Hillary was to be Obama II and would have finished the job … but God used a modern-day Cyrus of the Media-Persian Empire to conquer Babylon America. Clearly, this is President Trump, who, as a Cyrus also discovered the “hidden treasures of Darkness” (in underground tunnels of darkness), spoken of in Isaiah 45. Using this and other reforms as a lure, President Trump has come to lead a mighty Alliance of Nations. Where he also set the people of God free from Babylon to rebuild the Kingdom of God and also bankrolled it with Babylon's stolen loot. No one else has followed in the steps of Cyrus but President Donald Trump. Keep in mind there are not two kingdoms involved here but three. Original Babylon ruled by the DS Obama, then Babylon under Cyrus/Trump, and then comes this Babylon conquered by Alexander the Great, whom Robert saw as Obama in his vision. It was reported by the military that Barack Obama was arrested for his crimes and taken to Gitmo. There he was given a monitoring boot and told to play his part under their direction, but he rebelled and they took him back to Gitmo and shot him. However, it was after this that the military began to discover clone-growing labs that were manufacturing copies of the important DS criminals like Obama. LATER they learned how to tell the difference between a clone and the original. I believe it is likely that the DS had their clone of Obama available when they took clone Obama back in and shot him. Obama is known to still be out there and calling the shots for the DS. Remember, Alexander did not come until AFTER the Media-Persians under Cyrus/Trump conquered Babylon. It was DS Obama Babylon, then Trump Media-Persia, then Alexander of the Grecian Empire. Obama is still in the third Empire as an Alexander to conquer Trump. Remember history must repeat. Ecc.1:9 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there a thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been long ago, in the ages which were before us. We know the prophecies were manifest through history naturally as these three Kingdoms, but somehow these beast kingdoms must be repeated and we are watching it. Another thing that should not be forgotten: Obama was a figurehead for the DS and their 4th generation AI computer. Trump's steps came from a 5th generation AI computer that was programmed by the people pushing him. I take nothing from him; he is a genius. Alexander had political power back home holding down the fort. Revelation's seven-year Tribulation beasts, both the Dragon and then the Beast, had seven heads, not one. Nowhere in the bible does it describe one “antichrist beast.” See absolute Biblical proof in our book, Hidden Manna For The End Times. Jesus said there would be many antichrists. Only in parables of dreams, visions or types is a man described and sometimes a very big man, which identifies a corporate body head. Also, according to history repeating, Alexander is still coming to conquer the Medo-Persian/Cyrus/Trump/Empire. Back to Robert I Holmes: - Alexander Cometh! In 1999, as I prepared to travel to the US on ministry, the Lord gave me a very unusual prophetic word. He said that “In the days of Babylon, when her walls stood wide and her leaders stood tall, her defenses were strong and her campaigns victorious, (Babylon under the Trump Alliance of nations) Alexander the Great (Obama) came and defeated her. In the same way, my Alexander will stand in the very midst of the United States of America”. The phrase “in the same way” indicates that America's walls are wide, her leaders stand tall, her defenses are strong, her campaigns until now have been victorious. (This best describes Cyrus/Trumps Alliance campaigns) But a man like Alexander - someone God refers to as “my Alexander” will stand in her midst, victorious and defeat her. Alexander the Great, a Mediterranean Greek, defeated Darius the Mede in 331BC at the Battle of Gaugamela (Darius ruled Babylon due to Cyrus' victory), and the gates of Babylon swung open to him (Alexander/Obama) (when he was just 25 years old). He stood in the midst of the courtyard declaring himself king. He then spent considerable time and effort trying to restore Babylon to its former glory. (Which neither Alexander nor Obama are capable of, for God decreed its fall.) As I prayed in preparation for going to the US two weeks ago on ministry again, I had a vision of a map of America from high above. There, almost in the centre of it was a marketplace. I zoomed down toward the marketplace and saw a man standing there. I recognized by the Spirit that it was Alexander the Great, standing in a dusty, sandstone area, sword lifted high, victorious. I believe that God's “Alexander” is Barak Obama. (If so, and I don't doubt it, he would come after the Trump Alliance to conquer it. Trump has prepared everything for the beast. The one world order, the world economic system, complete control and knowledge of everyone's business through satellite and Artificial Intelligence. Cyrus/Trump will be good to give time for the reformers to mature the saints for when the beast makes war on them in the second half of the tribulation.) He has now stood in the middle of America and declared his victory speech in Grant Park in Chicago. There, he prophetically declared, “Change has come to America,” (6). Yes indeed, it has. Barak, apart from having the appearance of a Middle Eastern or African man, is also very young and inexperienced. Barak Obama has not even had a full year in his Senate position. I do not question the right of a 47-year-old to rule a nation, but his inexperience is not reduced by his amazing oratory skill. “Your sons will take the place of your fathers; you will make them princes throughout [in all] the earth,” (Psalm 45:16 NIV). He represents the end of empire America as we know it, and the opening of a new regime, one which, like Alexander, represents a conflagration of old powers (But Alexander/Obama? conquers Cyrus/Trump's America. The Alexander Grecian Empire came after the Cyrus/Trump Media-Persian Empire): European, Middle Eastern and Asian. He will try to restore America's glory, but in doing so relegate her to second position on the global scene. (Obama's job was to conquer America but failed to finish the job. He is still working as Alexander to conquer Trump's America.) The prophet Daniel, who wrote his book from 605 to 530 B.C., predicted Alexander would head a world power around 200 years before it happened (see Daniel 2, 7, 8 and 11). In Daniel 2, his empire is described as a belly and thighs of bronze (brass) in King Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Daniel 2:31-32, 39). In Daniel 7, it is described as looking like …The leopard with wings. The Four Generals Will Conquer Alexander/Obama Eve Brast - 1/29/10 (David's notes in red) (I asked God to confirm my role in this dream as a watchman on the tower. Twice, I opened my Bible and put my finger down. The first was Eze.3:21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he took warning; and thou hast delivered thy soul. And Isa.21:6 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman: let him declare what he seeth.) (Eve represents those watchmen who are watching for the enemy attacks on the tower of Zion.) I dreamed I was a watchman standing on the roof of a tower made of logs crossed at the corners like a log cabin. The tower was coming up out of the Gulf waters off the northwest coast of Florida (where UBM began). (When I had this dream, I didn't connect it with UBM, but when I was told to send it to David, I realized that he had a dream or vision from the Lord that UBM was represented by a log tower like this [in the same area but on land].) (The tower is Zion or Jerusalem, “the tower of the flock”. Mic.4:8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem. Micah 4 is indicative of how God will use the Bride/tower in the “latter days”. Also typed as the Bride in Rev.21:9-10 And there came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, who were laden with the seven last plagues; and he spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb. 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.) This tower also simultaneously existed in the Mediterranean waters farther east off the shores of Israel. (Israel is a type of the Church. An elect Bride will be taken out of the Israel/Church. Esther was the Bride taken out of Israel as a type of the Church.) I was dressed in an Old Testament Israeli soldier's outfit and standing at the northeast corner of the tower. (The Israeli soldiers' outfit represents the true New Testament church, circumcised in heart, in its Ephesians 6 armor.) It was dark and the wind was gusting. I could feel rain or sea spray on my face, forearms and lower legs. I was keeping the night watch facing northeast. Suddenly, out of the darkness, Alexander the Great came down and stood to my left. (Obama rules from the northeast of the tower and has been likened to Alexander the Great in other dreams and revelations, indicating his ambition and ability to conquer and take what God is giving into his hands for chastening.) He said, “I want to show you something”. He then swung over the north side of the tower and went feet first inside of it through a 24x24 inch window where a golden light shone out. I followed him in the same way. (The golden light in the heart of the Bride/tower is Christ and the Word. Alexander/Obama on the left will conquer the flesh of Christianity in America. However, as the Assyrian Beast leader, Sennacherib, conquered all of Israel but lost 185,000 men and was assassinated when he tried and failed to conquer Jerusalem, the Bride/tower, and so it will be in some form in these coming days [2 Kings 19:30-37]. I saw a vision of America as Nineveh, the head of the Assyrian world Beast. As Assyria was conquering other parts of Israel, some of these fled to the safety of the tower. As this happens, the people will seek God and their capital city, the Bride Zion/tower.) Inside, there was a very bright, white light. When my eyes adjusted, I saw it was a laboratory of some sort with countertops and lab equipment all around. In front of the north window that we had entered, there was a double stainless-steel sink with a high faucet. Next to it on the countertop was a black microscope. Alexander pointed to the microscope and exclaimed, “Look!” I looked into it and was sucked through it into a spiritual realm that was dark, with black, choppy water everywhere. I was aware in my spirit that it wasn't black just because it was dark. When I got my bearings, I looked around and realized I was on one of four Greek vessels sailing east at a quick and steady pace. (Could these represent the four generals that divided up Alexander's kingdom after they poisoned him?) The white sails were missing (not powered by the Spirit; i.e., wind) and the masts were bare and there were no oars. (not powered by man). (These vessels of judgment have no power against the Bride, who is guiltless by God's grace.) I was standing on the deck of the third vessel to the right. (Pestilence and blood? Corexit brought blood disorders and destroys the immune system like the vax does now.) There was one more vessel to my right, making it the fourth. Alexander was standing next to me on the deck. (I asked the Lord what the four vessels represented and he gave me Ezekiel 5:16-17: four judgments of famine, evil beasts, pestilence and blood (third vessel), and the sword.) (Today these have all been judgments through the DS. i.e the Ohio, East Palestine Chemical Dioxin fiasco, and other environmental disasters and blood contamination through MRNA vaccines. Microscopes are used many times to look at harmful microorganisms, representing unseen biohazards in food, water, and air that cannot be otherwise detected.) I looked ahead to the east and saw a large, bright star bigger and brighter than any I've ever seen. I knew instantly that it was Christ. Suddenly, two giant branches of lightning struck out sideways to the north and south of the star through dark gray clouds, and a voice came out of the star that resonated through my whole being on a cellular level. It said, “Proceed no further, for truly these are the very end of days!” Then, only the vessel we were on began to break apart into many broken pieces of splintered wood planks. Immediately, I was caught up away from Alexander, who was still on the deck of the vessel, back through the microscope and into the tower. (In his war against the Church at that time of the Tribulation, he will “proceed no further” against the Bride in these “end of days” by the edict of the King. This was just as it was when Ahasuerus stopped Haman, who, like Sennacherib of Assyria, died for his attempt on Esther, the Bride. Alexander the Great is said by some historians to have been assassinated by poison as he drank a bowl of unmixed wine to Hercules in the palace of Babylon, the great eagle. There seems to be a common thread of death or assassination to those rulers who attack the Bride/tower. I would like to remind any who read this that a Christian could never do this, for the Word says, “If any man shall kill with the sword, with the sword must he be killed,” and “love your enemies,” and “Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place unto the wrath [of God]: for it is written, Vengeance belongeth unto me; I will recompense, saith the Lord”.) I looked to my left where the sink was and noticed a reddish dyed tablet to the right of the drain in the right side of the sink, and there was a small stream of water running down onto the tablet, causing a red swirl that ran around the bottom of the sink clockwise before going down the drain. Then I woke up. (Because Jesus, the Word [water] poured out His blood [reddish tablet] unto death, the Bride will have life. If we take the tablet, or cure, we will have life. He said unless we ate His body, the bread and Word, and drank His blood, we would not have life.) The Eagle and the Serpents Michael Boldea (David's notes in red) (The Angel said, “This has been revealed to you, that you may know, the first bite (on the eagle of the U.S.) has been, the second is yet to come, and the third will be its destruction”.) Psalm 34:7-8, “The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him”. Upon my return to the United States in late August, I had a very vivid and troubling dream. I dreamt I was walking through a sparsely wooded forest, and suddenly my attention was drawn to an eagle (the U.S.) flying high above the tree line. It was a beautiful sight to behold as the eagle rode the thermals, flying in slow, lazy arcs across the blue sky. I began to quicken my pace and keep up with the eagle's flight, all the while keeping an eye on it, noticing that it was slowly descending toward the earth. (Becoming more corrupt) I followed it for a long time, its descent not being sudden but very gradual. Finally I came upon a small clearing, where there were no trees, just some bushes on the edges of the green grass. The eagle landed in the clearing and began to look around, not seeming to notice me. As I began to wonder what the relevance of this was, a man dressed in white, hands clasped in front of him, appeared beside me and said, “Be patient, in due time you will see the purpose”. I was silent as I watched the eagle, and was beginning to grow somewhat impatient, when suddenly (9/11 happened suddenly), it seemed out of nowhere a brown snake (the Muslims are a brown people and the Nazis wore brown shirts) lunged at the eagle, and bit down on its left wing. (In effect, 9/11 devastated the left wing and brought about a short-lived swing to the right as this nation's Christians prayed to their God to save their country.) The snake's strike was very quick and very precise. The eagle reacted without delay, clawing and pecking at the snake, cutting deep wounds in its underbelly, trying to defend itself and ward off the serpent. (USA, the great eagle is still pecking away at these enemies.) Just as it seemed the eagle was winning the battle, and the serpent was retreating, another serpent appeared, red and black diagonal stripes covering its body. (Red and white were the Obama's colors of choice for the election victory speech. Why red and black? Obama's associate for 20 years and mentor was Bill Ayers, who is an unrepentant terrorist, anarchist and Marxist who bombed his own country to bring about “change”, which is Obama's chief motto. Red and black are the colors of anarchists, socialists, left-wingers, communists, etc. Ayers told the New York Times on 9/11/01, “I don't regret setting bombs... I feel we didn't do enough.”) This serpent without hesitation struck out at the eagle's right wing, biting down, and refusing to release. (Many strikes have come from the left, false flags, plagues, assassinations, etc. These Satanists have never slowed down.) After a momentary tug of war, the serpent tore off flesh and feathers, leaving a large wound on the eagle's right wing. (Obama is purely a left-wing socialist who will use anything to tear a huge wound in the religious right of this land. Cheri Watson saw a vision of the Statue of Liberty sliced in two by a huge knife from right to left and the top half, or government, began to slide to the left and fall into the water. A line of leftist governments did much damage that President Trump has worked to reverse.) The second bite was much worse than the first, and for an instant the eagle was stunned. Then a serpent much larger than the previous two, made up of many colors came. (Leftist revolutionaries internally join with many enemy nations. Obama formed ISIS and gave billions to Iran to build underground cities to hide their missile and nuke program. Obama and Hillery sold our weapons to Saudi Arabia.), It slithered toward the eagle, opened its jaws and lunged, taking the whole of the eagle's head in its mouth before biting down. (The enemies take down the government and devastate the U.S., which brings revival.) The serpents retreated and the man (Jesus) who had been standing beside me walked to the eagle, knelt down, picked it up, and held it in his cupped hands. The look of grief on his face was beyond any I have seen in my life. Just seeing the look on the man's face broke your heart. The man continued to look down at the eagle, and with a pained voice said, “The true tragedy, is that at any moment it could have sought the safety of the above, it could have soared toward the heavens and would have found its protection. This has been revealed to you, that you may know, the first bite has been (9/11), the second is yet to come (leftist governments), and the third will be its destruction”. (In dreams we were shown the leftists have engineered many faults to magnify the destruction of coming earthquakes. This will cause the fall of the U.S. into wilderness tribulation.) A Gigantic Wave Coming Samuel Fire - 2/22/23 (David's notes in red) I saw Tianna, myself, and many other UBM brethren standing together on the beach as a group. (The Lord told Abraham that his seed would be as the sands of the seashore.) Behind us, spread all around, was a large crowd of different people that I didn't know. The place was completely full. From afar, I saw a gigantic wave coming. The wave was about 42 stories high. (The beast will persecute the saints for 42 months. Rev.13:4-5 and they worshipped the dragon, because he gave his authority unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? And who is able to war with him? 5 and there was given to him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to him authority to continue forty and two months.) All the people that I didn't know began freaking out. Some were screaming and crying and others were trying to run away. All those people were so scared and shocked. All the UBM Brethren were so joyful and excited for this wave to come. It was as if we all had been waiting for this wave. (For us, this wave will bring victory for the Kingdom of God in that it will separate the tares from the wheat, which will shine forth in the kingdom as a great revival. Mat.13:40-43 As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so shall it be in the end of the world. 41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity, 42 (notice the number) and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. (Notice what comes at the end of verse 42 as in 42 months.) 43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that hath ears, let him hear. For those who are dead to self, there is no fear of the Beast. The end of this 42 months is the end of the crucifixion of the saints and the coming of the Lord for His saints.) Some of the crowd kept trying to run away to save themselves. A few others fell on their knees in repentance, crying to God because they knew they couldn't save themselves or do anything. (God will bring repentance through judgment to His elect.) As the wave came, the brethren had special equipment for the water. They had experience and had been trained to ride the wave, so they were prepared and knew exactly what to do. When the wave came, we were gently lifted up, and we just surfed the wave, riding the wave, and some were just walking on the water. (1Th.4:13 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep.) Everyone else was wiped out from the wave, but all the brethren were calm, having fun and a great time. (Psa.37:18-20) Jehovah knoweth the days of the perfect; And their inheritance shall be for ever. 19 They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. 20 But the wicked shall perish, And the enemies of Jehovah shall be as the fat of lambs: They shall consume; In smoke shall they consume away.) Two Visions of a Wave of Destruction Marie Kelton – 2/17/23 (David's notes in red) Vision #1: During our evening meeting, I had a vision of a city with a few tall buildings. I saw white cars that were parked in the city. (Representing the righteous who are in the rest.) I then saw a huge wave come in from the right and flood the city. (Judgment begins in the house of God to cleanse it and then the wicked are judged, as we will see. 1Pe.4:17 For the time is come for judgment to begin at the house of God: and if it begin first at us, what shall be the end of them that obey not the gospel of God?) Vision #2: Later on in the meeting, I had another vision of people in a city. The people were trying to run away from a huge wave of water that was coming towards them. (God is going to give His people a 3-year grace period during these times to work in Revival for His People and Kingdom. All provision will be given by Him.)

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1954DM David Bayer explains why hustle culture is lying to you: desire plus grind plus sacrificing your health and relationships does not equal success. It just equals burnout with a trophy. The belief running under almost everyone's ambition is “I'm not enough.” It got planted in childhood the moment a parent's love felt conditional on career, mood, or trauma they never dealt with. That wound doesn't stay small. It turns into a personality, a compensation strategy of pleasing, achieving, controlling chaos, and it actually works for decades. Then somewhere between 40 and 60, the exact trait that built your whole life starts suffocating you. The thing you were always good at becomes the cage. No pill, potion, or shaman playlist fixes this one. David says it's designed to force you back into unconditional love you never got as a kid, but this time from a higher power, not your parents. Once you feel that unconditional love, forgiving your parents gets easy. You realize it was never really about you, it was their conditions, their trauma, their absence. The real shift isn't doing more. It's non-resistance. Anything that isn't that is just resistance still waiting to be worked through.

Your expertise may be one of the most valuable assets in your business—but if it only exists inside your head, it can be difficult to sell, scale, or transfer. In this episode of Beyond 7 Figures, Charles Gaudet sits down with Simon Bowen, creator of the Genius Model, to explore how visual models can turn complex thinking into something customers, prospects, and teams can understand and act on. Simon shares how he spent 25 years using visual models to resolve complex and contentious problems, align teams, and help organizations reach agreement.

Charles and Simon also explore the "founder's trap," why businesses become dependent on the founder's experience and reputation, and how codifying your unique thinking into intellectual property can make a business more scalable, valuable, and less dependent on the person who built it. They also break down the importance of finding the "ache" beneath the problem your customers are willing to articulate—and why identifying that deeper problem can transform how you position and sell your business. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Make complex ideas simple: Use visual models to create clarity and alignment. Turn expertise into IP: Make the thinking behind your service tangible and valuable.
