"Americans won't riot. They'll freeze — and they'll obey," warns Chase Hughes, one of the nation's most elite behavioral strategists. As nearly $11 trillion shifts quietly beneath the financial system, Hughes says the public is being conditioned for a collapse far bigger than anything seen in 2008. The danger isn't just the economic fallout; it's how people will react when the trigger finally snaps. In today's interview, Hughes exposes the psychological techniques used to keep citizens compliant during crisis, why confusion is the most powerful modern weapon, and how engineered division is setting the stage for a controlled collapse. He connects the dots between political violence, vanishing social trust, and the sweeping monetary restructuring happening behind closed doors.✅ FREE RESOURCESDownload The Private Wealth Playbook — a data-backed guide to strategically acquiring gold and silver for maximum protection, privacy, and performance.

In this message, Pastor Aaron looks at Joseph's role in the Christmas story, and how he trusted God without having all the details... and how God challenges us to do the same.Even when obedience is costly, and when we don't understand why, God uses our "yes" to shape our lives, restore hope, and write a new story far greater than we ever imagined!

Every year in the fall, Pastor John sits down and re-reads the Christmas accounts from Matthew and Luke, asking the Lord to show him something fresh. This year, he was struck by the difficult decisions that had to be made in order for the birth of Jesus to take place exactly the way it did. These were gut-wrenching and dangerous decisions. We have certainly faced gut-wrenching and dangerous decisions before, and there will be more of those types of decisions off and on the rest of our lives — not just once or twice but over and over. This week, we’re exploring some principles we can glean from these Christmas accounts to help us have courage as we face hard choices.

Asst. Pastor Melvin Gaines Romans 8:1-9

many of us say God is alive, but we don't actually live like it. We panic when life goes left, pray like God is distant, and make decisions as if He can't see, can't hear, and can't intervene. This message challenges believers to examine their actions, reactions, priorities, and standards through the lens of a God who is fully alive, fully aware, and fully powerful.We talk about the difference between believing in God and living like He's active, why we often settle for “microwave miracles,” and why God uses process—not shortcuts—to build our faith. From Abraham's long wait to David's training season, we explore how God develops us before He promotes us.Today you will be called into boldness: Pray like He's alive. Obey like He's alive. Give like He's alive. Move like He's alive. Because God isn't distant or inactive—He is present, powerful, and still working today.  If He's alive… It's time our lifestyle agrees.Closing Song:  God Is Alive - Live Like It by Deborah OcasioSupport the showwww.BibleDeliverance.org

November 28, 2025Today's Reading: Catechism: Table of Duties - To Workers of All KindsDaily Lectionary: Isaiah 2:1-22; Isaiah 3:1-4:6; 1 Peter 1:13-25“Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.” (Ephesians 6:5–8)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. The language here is…challenging. Slave. Obey. Earthly masters. Just as you would obey Christ. First of all, slaves. Second of all, I'm not even great at obeying Christ in the first place, let alone sinners like every earthly master. I'm not going to parse the word slave and come up with a definition that's more palatable. I'm not going to wax eloquent on the working class that can't escape poverty. Almost all of you have someone in charge of you. That's plenty to talk about already. When one sinner has power over another, that doesn't naturally produce a sense of peace. Those kinds of power dynamics are easy to abuse. But Luther sees only gift. Vocation isn't just “thou shalt not rage against the machine.” The gift of vocation sees God behind all things. Even sinners who are your boss. Ephesians says to serve them as if you were serving Christ. Because Christ works through your neighbor. Now there are two things to talk about. First, if your boss abuses you, that's always bad. That's never good. God is not pleased by this sin. You can tell, not because He gives you the boss, but because He gives your boss the same Ten Commandments. Second, you can expect God to work good through your boss anyway. Think about it, as sinful as all of us are, and as prone as those power dynamics are to abuse, we have not descended into anarchy. God brings more good from these relationships than we have any right to deserve, but we can expect them anyway because He is gracious. When it comes to your boss, recognize that God wants to care for you through them. Your role as a worker, in whatever phraseology you use, is challenging. Because all of us, in an uneven power dynamic, would rather be God than the Christian. Repent, and recognize just how much good we receive because God, who is powerful, is merciful to us. He even wants to use your boss to make sure you're provided for. It won't be perfect this side of glory, but we can dare to hope because God, who knows your boss too, dares to promise good here. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.In what You give us, Lord, to do, Together or alone, In old routines or ventures new, May we not cease to look to You, The cross You hung upon— All You endeavored done. (LSB 853:4)Author: Rev.

Richard Heinz, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lowell, IN.This new devotional resource by Carl Fickenscher walks you through each week's readings, revealing thematic connections and helping you better understand what is to come in worship each Sunday.

In this sermon, we look at Jesus' words that reveal what genuine love for Him looks like and how true obedience becomes possible. These two themes—The Evidence of Love and The Power to Obey—show us that following Christ is not something we do in our own strength, but through the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit.Key Points: 1. The Evidence of Love 2. The Power to ObeyThis message calls us to examine our hearts, rest in God's grace, and rely on the Spirit who empowers us to walk in faithful love and obedience to Jesus.

Speaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Hebrews 13:7-19Episode Overview:In this sermon from Hebrews 13:7–19, we explore how God calls His people to relate to spiritual authority within the local church. Scripture paints a vision of leadership rooted in faithful teaching, Christlike character, and vigilant care for souls. At the same time, believers are invited to remember, imitate, obey, and pray for those who shepherd them. This passage offers a deeply biblical, countercultural picture of joyful leadership and joyful followership—one that flows from the grace and supremacy of Christ. Join us as we walk through three movements in the text: remembering and imitating godly pastors, obeying and yielding to spiritual leadership, and praying earnestly for those entrusted with watching over the church.Key Highlights:1. Remember and Imitate Your Pastors (Heb 13:7)• Godly leaders are marked first by speaking the Word of God faithfully.• Their way of life confirms the truth they teach as they strive to model mature Christian character.• Believers are called to consider and continually reflect on the outcome of their leaders' lives and to imitate their faith—not because leaders are perfect, but because they point to Christ.• Imitation is not blind allegiance; Christ alone is the One we follow.2. Obey and Submit to Your Leaders (Heb 13:17)• The command to obey is tied to being persuaded by biblical teaching, not to unquestioning compliance.• Submission describes a posture of willing cooperation rather than stubborn resistance.• Scripture provides limits to pastoral authority; leaders may only require what God Himself commands.• Healthy church life happens when pastors joyfully lead and believers joyfully respond.3. Pray Earnestly for Your Leaders (Heb 13:18–19)• Pastors “keep watch over souls” and will “give an account”—a weighty and joyful responsibility.• The church's prayers safeguard leaders from drifting into false teaching, strengthen their character, and support them in the demanding work of shepherding.• A praying church becomes a spiritually powerful church.Call to Action:This week, intentionally pray for the leaders God has placed in your life—that they would remain faithful to Scripture, walk with integrity, and lead with joy. At the same time, examine your own posture toward authority: ask the Lord to cultivate a heart that is humble, teachable, and eager to follow Him through the shepherds He has provided. Seek ways to encourage your spiritual leaders, and allow their example to spur you toward deeper faithfulness in your own walk with Christ.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

When the day of Pentecost came . . . they saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. — Acts 2:1-3 Many of us view rules or laws negatively. Speed limits can seem to bog us down, and who wants to pay extra taxes? Even God's law can feel restrictive at times. But, of course, all of these things are important.The Feast of Weeks—taking place seven weeks after the Feast of Firstfruits (see Nov. 20)—celebrated the wheat harvest, and it became an occasion to thank God for the gift of his law. Yes, that's right—as the Israelites lived in the presence of a holy God, his law taught them how to live in a way that was pleasing to the One who had redeemed them.Of course, Israel's struggle was that obedience was not just difficult—it was impossible. And the same is true for us. Look back over the past day or so, for example. Have you kept from saying unkind words? Have you resisted every bitter thought? Have you avoided the subtle sins of greed and impatience? Not one of us can obey God's law perfectly.On the Feast of Weeks, God sent his Spirit to renew us in terms of celebrating the harvest as well as the law. The Spirit empowers us for the greater harvest that God has prepared, bringing people from every nation into his kingdom! And the Spirit transforms us to act with true obedience from renewed hearts. If you have received Jesus as your Savior, his Holy Spirit is shaping you for mission and obedience! Father, help us to live with glad obedience to you, in gratitude for all that you have done for us in Jesus. Amen.

What does great sex really mean? And why is the simplest question – “What do you really want?” – often the hardest one to answer?In this episode of The Weekly Hot Spot, Mistress Olivia and Mistress Erika sit down with the brilliant Dr. Jaime Grant – researcher, LGBTQ+ advocate, and author of Great Sex: Mapping Your Desire – for a conversation that dismantles shame, celebrates pleasure, and redefines intimacy from the inside out.This isn't just a talk about kink or technique. It's a deep dive into the emotional archaeology of desire – how shame, silence, and societal scripts keep us from claiming our deepest pleasures, especially when those desires feel taboo. Dr. Grant opens with a powerful admission: she got into this work because she was a “liar” – performing a version of herself to survive a repressive Irish Catholic upbringing. “We all develop a liar,” she explains, “and that liar shows up in our sexuality.” Whether you're a submissive wrestling with guilt, a sissy navigating feminization, or someone whose fantasies clash with their identity, this episode meets you where you are – without judgment.The conversation turns to the “purge cycle” – that all-too-familiar pattern where submissives and sissies throw away their toys and clothes in shame, only to rebuild their collections once again. Dr. Grant reframes this not as failure, but as desire breaking through. Then comes the practical magic. Dr. Grant introduces her “Name Tag Exercise” – a fun exercise tool where you introduce yourself not by your job or role, but by three words that describe your core desires. Words like slut, rope enthusiast, curious, neuro spicy, bootlicker, orgasm controller. Mistress Erika shares hers: “Fun. Curious. Obey.” Mistress Olivia, ever the wordsmith, lands on “Control as Connection,” “Intellectual Eroticism,” and “Transformation.” She reveals how power exchange, for her, is a form of artistic expression – a “ballet” of sensual influence – and how she's turned on more by minds than bodies, drawn to “the space between words.”But the mapping goes deeper. Dr. Grant applies desire mapping to orgasm control, chastity, and tease/denial – not as games of endurance, but as rituals of presence. “If you're just going through the motions,” she says, “it's choreography, not connection.” True power play begins when you're grounded in what actually moves you – the raw, vulnerable parts of yourself that turn you on because they feel dangerous.Fantasy, she insists, is not disloyalty – it's breadcrumbs. Your roleplay scenarios, dark power exchanges, and gender-bending dreams aren't distractions from real desire – they are the map. And if someone tries to police your inner world? “You're with the wrong person."The episode closes with a radical truth: You already have everything you need. The voice of shame – that internal critic whispering, "You shouldn't want this" – that voice is not yours. It's the echo of a priest, a parent, a culture.Desire mapping helps you trace that voice back to its source, so you stop obeying it and start honoring your sacred material: your body, your history, your truth.If you've ever felt like an imposter in your own pleasure… If you've silenced a fantasy because it didn't fit your identity… If you've wondered why surrender feels so terrifying – and so freeing……this episode is your invitation to map your desire – not apologize for it.Tune in. Listen closely. And start asking yourself the question that changes everything:What do you really want?Books by Dr. Jaime Grant on AmazonReach out to Dr. Grant for readings or coaching at jaimemgrant@gmail.com and catch her podcast at www.justsexpodcast.comContact us:Mistress Olivia:Email: Olivia@EnchantrixEmpire.com.   Twitter X: @MistressOlivia1.     Blue Sky: @MsOliviaBlog: Experienced MistressMistress Erika: Email:  Erika@EnchantrixEmpire.comTwitter X and Blue Sky: @ErikaEnchantrixBlog: Intelligent Phone Fantasy MEET DR.

Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people because you know that the Lord will reward each one for whatever good they do, whether they are slave or free. And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him.

Who do you go to when life glitches? In this message, Lead Pastor, Jamie Nunnally continues our Holy Spirit series with instructions on how to engage with God's tech support.Ephesians 5:10 NLT Carefully determine what pleases the Lord.The Bible gives general truth for everyone, but it doesn't always answer specific situations. The great news: Christians have 24/7 tech support. The Bible gives the instructions; the Spirit gives the directions. The Bible brings the truth; the Spirit brings the troubleshooting.Romans 6:14 NIV For sin shall no longer be your master...How can we stop sinning if we don't follow the law? The Bible gives us the solution:Galatians 5:16–17 ESV Walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh...The key is walking in the Spirit.Galatians 5:25 ESV If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. Walking with someone means matching their pace and following their lead.The 5 steps of walking in the Spirit1. Pause.Psalm 46:10 NLT Pausing is a spiritual reboot—turning your will off and on again. Stillness reboots your awareness of God. If you don't pause, your flesh will hit "send" before the Spirit can speak.2. Listen.God speaks to your spirit. His voice often sounds like your thoughts but from a different source. If you're expecting thunder, you'll miss the whisper. We hear Him through spontaneous, persistent thoughts.John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice... Recognition comes through repetition. You don't need a louder God; you need fewer voices.3. Analyze.1 Thessalonians 5:19–21 ESV Ask: "Does this align with Scripture?" The Bible is the truth anchor. Don't test God's voice with feelings; test your feelings with God's Word. The Spirit always agrees with the Bible He wrote. Ask: "Is this what the Spirit wants or what I want?" "Does this reflect Jesus?" If the voice you hear always agrees with you, it's probably you.4. Implement.Hearing from God changes nothing until you obey. If you want God to speak more, obey what He already said.James 1:22 NLT Revelation without application becomes spiritual constipation. If the Spirit can't tell you "no," He's not your Lord—He's your mascot.5. Debrief.You won't always get it right, so process the results.Psalm 139:23–24 ESV Search me, O God...Reflection turns mistakes into maturity and lessons into lifestyle. You grow not by always getting it right but by always returning to the Teacher. Processing with God's people is essential too.ClosingHow would your life be different if you had been walking in the Spirit the whole time? You can't change yesterday, but you can start today. You have Heavenly tech support anytime, anywhere. Learn to listen and use it.Are you walking in the Spirit?

Today is day 316 and we are studying The Sixth Commandment. 316. How else can you obey this commandment? As a witness to the Gospel and a follower of Christ, I can also keep this commandment by forgiving those who wrong me, patiently refraining from ungodly anger and hateful words; defending the unborn, vulnerable, and oppressed; rescuing those who harm themselves; and seeking the well-being of all. (Psalm 37:5–11; Zechariah 7:8–14; Matthew 5:38–48; Ephesians 4:25–5:2; James 1:27) We will conclude today by praying Proper 14 found on page 618 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

"Let your heart therefore be perfect with the Lord our God, to walk in his statutes, and to keep his commandments."

“But my people would not listen to me. They kept doing whatever they wanted, following the stubborn desires of their evil hearts. They went backward instead of forward.” (Jeremiah 7:24 NLT) My dog used to practice selective listening. When he didn’t like what I was saying, he acted as though he didn’t understand me. If he was in my room at bedtime and I told him to leave, he would look at me as if to say, “What?” It was as though his hearing was gone. On the other hand, he could have been asleep behind closed doors, and if I went downstairs, opened the cupboard, and pulled out his leash, he suddenly had supersonic hearing. He was right there at my side. When he liked what I wanted him to do, he heard and obeyed me. But when he didn’t like what I wanted him to do, he didn’t hear or obey. Sometimes we do the same thing with God. When He tells us to do something we like, we say, “Yes, Lord!” But when He tells us to stop doing something we like, we say, “God, I think You’re cutting out on me. There’s too much static. I’m not hearing You clearly.” Jesus said, “You are my friends if you do what I command” (John 15:14 NLT). He didn’t say, “You are My friends if you do the things that you personally agree with.” God has told us in His Word how we’re to live. It’s not for us to pick and choose sections of the Bible that we like and toss the rest aside. When the urge to practice selective listening hits us, we need to remind ourselves of who’s doing the instructing. After all, God knows everything. He knows what’s ultimately good for us and what’s ultimately destructive to us. He loves us beyond comprehension and wants only what’s best for us. So, obeying Him is never a bad idea. In fact, it’s the best idea in any situation. Obedience brings us closer to God. It strengthens our relationship with Him. It brings us a sense of joy and purpose. And it makes us a valuable resource to others who may be struggling spiritually. The Bible makes it clear that God blesses us when we obey Him. Psalm 128:1 says, “How joyful are those who fear the Lord—all who follow his ways” (nlt). And in Jeremiah 7:23, God Himself says, “Obey me, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. Do everything as I say, and all will be well!” (NLT). The takeaway is that if God tells you to do something, He says it for good reason, and you need to obey Him. If God says not to do something, He also says it for good reason. Even if you don’t understand it, obey Him. You will always be glad that you did. Reflection question: What would complete obedience to God look like in your life?

From Trump ordering unlawful military strikes on boats in international waters - murdering dozens of human beings, to Trump saying he can order soldiers into the street of US cities and even the courts can't stop him, Trump behavior vis-a-vis the military is getting more dangerous and lawless by the day. Two members of the Illinois National Guard have spoke out publicly, announcing that they would not obey unlawful order from Trump to deploy to the streets to Chicago. Glenn discusses these and other military-related developments with law professor and military law expert Dan Maurer.
