My best days are many times sleepless nights.God has often made the most resounding impact on His hard-headed slave -me- through sleepless nights wrestling with Him.This delayed episode is just one occasion of God's work on a dull hearer. We will see how dangerous it is to believe we pray primarily to get what we want. We follow Balak and Balaam as they persist in prayer, which is clearly against God's will. Ploy 1: Everyone thinks it's a good idea.Ploy 2: Really distinguished men think it is a good idea.Ploy 3: God's servant will get lots of money if you say yes.Ploy 4: Worship, I will give lots of worship if you only give me this.Ploy 5: Threatening the servant of God. (I get my ploys a little out of order. Lol out loud)Balaam finally comes to his senses, but what time I have wasted praying for stones and snakes dull in learning, the joy of my soul resting in my converse with my gracious Savior. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."Robert Murray M'CheyneAssistant Editor: Seven Jefferson Gossardwww.frponprayer.comfreerangeprayer@gmail.comFacebook - Free Range Preacher MinistriesInstagram: freerangeministriesAll our Scripture quotes are drawn from the NASB 1977 edition.For access to the voice-over services of Richard Durrington, please visit RichardDurrington.com or email him at Durringtonr@gmail.comOur podcast art was designed by @sammmmmmmmm23 on InstagramSeason 008Episode 003

The BBC has this week been rocked by a series of controversies, leading its Director General and Head of News to resign, and President Donald Trump threatening to sue the corporation over an edit it made to his January 6th, 2021 speech in one of its programmes, which the BBC admits was misleading. How did the management of the world's most trusted news broadcaster reach crisis point, and what does this tell us about today's media landscape? BBC culture and media editor Katie Razzall explains.

Complaints about the editing of a Donald Trump clip in a BBC documentary about the January 6 riots have led to the resignations of the broadcaster's director general and the head of news

US President Donald Trump has threatened the British broadcaster BBC with a lawsuit worth one billion US dollars. The background is a documentary in which his speech shortly before the storming of the US Capitol in 2021 was edited in such a way that it potentially makes him appear as an instigator. Following the resignation of two BBC executives, the broadcaster is under massive pressure. Media experts, however, see Trump's actions less as an attempt to seek justice — but more as a deliberate intimidation of independent media. - US-Präsident Donald Trump hat dem britischen Sender BBC mit einer Klage über eine Milliarde US-Dollar gedroht. Hintergrund ist eine Dokumentation, in der seine Rede kurz vor dem Sturm auf das US-Kapitol 2021 so geschnitten wurde, dass sie ihn potenziell als Anstifter erscheinen lässt. Nach dem Rücktritt zweier BBC-Führungskräfte steht der Sender massiv unter Druck. Medienexpertinnen sehen in Trumps Vorgehen jedoch weniger den Versuch, Gerechtigkeit zu suchen – sondern vielmehr eine gezielte Einschüchterung unabhängiger Medien.

The BBC's chairman has denied claims the BBC is trying to bury accusations of bias, as Donald Trump threatens to sue the company. A leaked BBC memo suggests the Panorama programme edited Trump's speech to imply he encouraged the Capitol Hill riots of January 2021. UK correspondent Enda Brady says it's likely the BBC will need to issue another apology - as the original didn't go far enough. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Donald Trump has warned that he will target Nigeria if the government there "continues to allow the killing of Christians". For months, campaigners and politicians in Washington have been alleging that Islamist militants were systematically targeting Christians in Nigeria. But how true are the claims that there is a persecution – or even a genocide – of Christians in the West African country? And how does Nicki Minaj come to thank him for his intervention? We speak to the BBC's global religion correspondent, Lebo Diseko.

The BBC's chairman has denied claims the BBC is trying to bury accusations of bias as Donald Trump threatens to sue the company. A leaked BBC memo suggests the Panorama programme edited Trump's speech to imply he encouraged the Capitol Hill riots of January 2021. The US President is demanding a full retraction and is threatening to sue for nearly NZ$1.8 billion in damages. BBC director general Tim Davie and BBC News CEO Deborah Turness have both stepped down. UK Correspondent Rod Liddle told Mike Hosking that Chairman Samir Shah said he doesn't believe the BBC is institutionally biased, but Liddle isn't sure he believes that. Liddle believes Shah said it as he feels the need to hold the BBC together in the wake of its two most damaging resignations, Davie and Turness.

PREVIEW. AI, Corporate Staffing Reduction, and Consumer Liquidity Issues Threatening a Recession. Chris Riegel discusses how while AI contributes to corporate staff reduction (e.g., IBM), financial results from quick service restaurants like Chipotle indicate consumer challenges. Specifically, younger consumers are financially strained, leading to negative results and consumers trading down. This problem with consumer liquidity represents early signs of what could become a nasty recession, though its progression is unknown. Retry

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Robert Midgley, journalist and spokesperson for the Friends of British Overseas Territories, to expose what could be Keir Starmer's greatest political scandal yet — the quiet handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.We unpack how this shocking deal — costing British taxpayers up to £47 billion — effectively gives away sovereign UK territory in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Robert reveals how the Labour government, under pressure from international legal activists like Philippe Sands, has undermined British sovereignty and endangered one of America's most strategic military bases, Diego Garcia.From allegations of corruption and hacked negotiations in Mauritius to the Chinese Communist Party's interest in the region, we examine how Britain's political and legal elite have allowed foreign powers to dictate national policy under the banner of “decolonisation.”We also explore the untold story of the Chagossian people — forcibly removed by the British government in the 1960s, yet still overwhelmingly pro-British today, despite decades of betrayal.All this — the Chagos scandal, the billions in taxpayer money, China's growing influence, and how Starmer's Labour is sleepwalking Britain into surrendering its sovereignty.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall Hosted on Acast.

Last weekend, Quebec passed new legislation that would impose a new contract on doctors, who have been in negotiations with the provincial government since March, 2023. Known as Bill 2, it sets out targets that Quebec doctors must meet in order to achieve the government's health care goals, including access to primary care for all Quebeckers by January, 2027.The catch? If doctors don't meet these targets, they can be penalized by having up to 15 per cent of their pay clawed back.André Picard, Globe health reporter and columnist, is on the show to break down why Bill 2 is drawing controversy, how doctors are responding to it, and what that means for patient care in Quebec.Questions?

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Scott Blackburn, a First Amendment policy expert, to explore how state lawmakers are quietly chipping away at free speech and donor privacy. Blackburn explains how proposed laws across the country could expose nonprofit donors, chill civic participation, and give politicians new tools to silence their critics. He also breaks down the growing wave of legislation aimed at regulating AI in political speech—and how vague definitions could turn simple campaign graphics or video edits into “AI manipulation.” From New Mexico's one-word bill that nearly forced every charity to reveal its supporters to efforts that disguise domestic disclosure mandates as “foreign interference” bans, Blackburn shows how these measures threaten the fundamental right to speak and associate freely. Tune in as American Potential reveals what's really at stake in the fight to protect privacy, free expression, and the open exchange of ideas.

There are two ways to control a nation. One is through fear — the boot of tyranny, the ever-watchful eye of Big Brother. The other is through faith — the promise of divine order, the sanctified chains of Gilead. George Orwell with ‘1984' and Margaret Atwood with ‘The Handmaid's Tale' warned us about both, all we had to do was listen. And yet, somehow, here we are. A government that seeks to control thought and faith, morality and memory, is no longer a warning — it's the nightly news.“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the question is no longer “Could it happen here?” The question is: Has it already begun? I will let you be the judge of that, but let's play a little game first, OK? If I showed you an article from 2012 about then-president Barack Obama ordering a federal agency to drag hundreds of American citizens out of their homes, beat them, tase them, arrest them and hold them without bail or a lawyer, would you think that was a good thing or a bad thing? Wait, don't answer yet. Second question – if I showed you where the DOJ was censoring people on social media, would you think that was a good thing or a bad thing? Wait, one more question. If I showed you a Democrat administration taking control of the IRS to use it as a weapon to pursue people they consider to be their enemies, would you support that? Of course you wouldn't. You might tell me you believe in freedom and justice, which is why you voted for Trump. But what if I told you that in all 3 of those instances I just gave you, the Trump administration was the one actually doing those things? You can read about it here, here and here. Fear and faith are powerful weapons, and on this episode we show you how they are being used to hijack a nation.

Here, Peter Hotez and Michael Mann name names...It's not too late to do something; it's time to get things done. Read on” (Bill Nye, science educator) From pandemics to the climate crisis, humanity faces tougher challenges than ever. Whether it's the health of our people or the health of our planet, we know we are on an unsustainable path. But our efforts to effectively tackle these existential crises are now hampered by a common threat: politically and ideologically motivated opposition to science. Michael E. Mann and Peter J. Hotez are two of the most respected and well-known scientists in the world and have spent the last twenty years on the front lines of the battle to convey accurate, reliable, and trustworthy information about science in the face of determined and nihilistic opposition. In this powerful manifesto, they reveal the five main forces threatening science: plutocrats, pros, petrostates, phonies, and the press. It is a call to arms and a road map for dismantling the forces of anti-science. Armed with the information in this book, we can be empowered to promote scientific truths, shine light on channels of dark money, dismantle the corporations poisoning the planet, and ultimately avert disaster. Peter J. Hotez, MD, PhD, is the founding dean of The National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, as well as director of the Texas Children's Hospital Center for Vaccine Development.

Neurologist Scott Tzorfas discusses his article "The crushing bureaucracy that's driving independent physicians to extinction." Scott shares his firsthand experience as a neurologist in private practice for three decades, where endless pre-authorizations, insurance denials, and regulatory burdens have eroded the physician-patient relationship. He explains how excessive rules and third-party interference have pushed many doctors to sell their practices or retire early, leaving patients with fewer choices and longer wait times. Scott also highlights his petition calling for policymakers to roll back unnecessary regulations and restore the autonomy of independent physicians. Listeners will take away a deeper understanding of how bureaucracy impacts patient care and why protecting private practice is essential for the future of American medicine.
