Stand Up We the People

09/03/2026

There may be no more important prayer we can pray right now than this one.

Lord, watch over our children, and watch over the America they will someday inherit.

We look around and see a country changing quickly. We worry about what our children will be taught, what kind of culture they will grow up in, whether freedom will still mean something, and whether they will have the courage to stand for truth when standing for truth comes with a price.

Those concerns are real. But Christians are not called to pray from a place of panic.

We pray from a place of faith.

The God we are praying to created the heavens and the earth. He knit each of us together in our mother's womb. He knows us by name. Scripture tells us that we are His workmanship, created for the good works He prepared for us.

That includes our children.

They were not accidentally born into this moment in history. God knew exactly when they would arrive. He knows the challenges they will face, the decisions they will make, and the purpose He has for their lives.

That should change the way we pray.

Yes, pray that America remains free. Pray that our children know peace. Pray that they recognize truth in a world increasingly confused about what truth even means.

Pray that they have courage.

Pray that they understand liberty is precious, that faith is worth defending, and that doing what is right will sometimes require standing alone.

But above all, pray that they know Jesus Christ.

Because ultimately our confidence cannot rest in politicians, elections, institutions, or even the future direction of this country.

It rests in God.

Whatever comes, He remains sovereign. Our children are in His hands.

So pray boldly, parents and grandparents. Pray faithfully. Pray without fear.

God has them.

God bless our children, and God bless America.

Corrie ten Boom once said, “Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.”

That is a beautiful quote, but it becomes far more powerful when you know the life behind it.

Corrie was a Dutch Christian who lived with her family in Haarlem, Netherlands, during the N**i occupation. She and her family could have chosen safety. They could have minded their own business, kept quiet and hoped the evil around them passed by their door.

Instead, they chose courage.

The ten Boom family helped hide Jews and members of the Dutch resistance from the N**is. A secret room was built behind a false wall in Corrie’s bedroom, and their home became part of a larger underground network that protected people marked for death.

Then, on February 28, 1944, the family was betrayed.

The Gestapo raided their home and arrested Corrie, her sister Betsie, their elderly father Casper and other members of the family. Six people were hiding in the secret room at the time. The N**is searched the house, but they never found them.

Corrie’s father, who was 84 years old, died only days after his arrest.

Corrie and Betsie were eventually sent to Ravensbrück, one of N**i Germany’s most infamous concentration camps for women. There they faced hunger, disease, cruelty, forced labor and the constant presence of death.

Yet even in that darkness, Corrie and Betsie clung to Christ. They prayed with other prisoners. They shared Scripture. They encouraged women who had every earthly reason to give up.

Then Betsie died in the camp.

Corrie was left to face the unknown without the sister who had walked through so much of it beside her. Less than two weeks later, Corrie was released from Ravensbrück and eventually made her way home.

What did she do after surviving that kind of evil?

She spent the rest of her life telling people about Jesus Christ, forgiveness and the faithfulness of God.

She even returned to Germany and personally forgave a former Ravensbrück guard who approached her after one of her sermons.

That is why her quote matters.

Corrie ten Boom was not speaking from comfort. She was not offering a cute religious slogan for easy times. She was speaking as a woman who had trusted God when the future was terrifying, when the cost was real and when tomorrow was completely unknown.

So when she says, “Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God,” she is not asking us to pretend life is easy.

She is reminding us that Jesus is faithful.

You may not know what is coming next. You may not know how the story ends. But you can know the One who holds tomorrow, and He has never failed those who put their trust in Him.

John Adams was right.

“I have examined all religions, and the result is that the Bible is the best book in the world.”

That was not a throwaway line. That was not just a nice quote from history. That was a man who had read, studied, questioned, wrestled, and thought deeply, coming to the conclusion that the Bible stands above every other book ever written.

And of course it does.

The Bible is not just literature. It is not just history. It is not just moral instruction. It is God’s holy, breathed, living Word.

It is our rock when the world is shaking.

It is our compass when the culture is lost.

It is our comforter when life is heavy.

It is our correction when pride takes over.

It is our reminder that God does not change, even when everything around us does.

Too many people treat the Bible like a decoration on a shelf, or something to open only when life falls apart. But we were meant to read it. Learn it. Pray it. Sit under it. Be shaped by it. Be in community with other believers around it.

The Bible does not need to be updated to fit the times. The times need to be judged against the Bible.

That is where peace is found. That is where truth is found. That is where wisdom is found. That is where we are reminded who God is, who we are, and what this life is really about.

It’s Sunday.

Go to church. Open the Word. Listen carefully. God may have something there today that you desperately need to hear.

And unlike the noise of this world, His Word will not fail.

Read it again and tell me this is not the truth.

Conservative principles are the only thing keeping this country standing. We don't need more government overreach and radical agendas; we need to return to the hard work and common sense that built this nation. The difference between thriving and collapsing has never been clearer. 🇺🇸🛡️

Do you think we are at a turning point for the country? 🤔

There is no question America is in trouble.

We are divided politically, culturally, spiritually, even inside our own families. Too many people no longer see their neighbors as fellow Americans, they see enemies. We have lost much of the moral clarity that once told us some things were right, some things were wrong, and that truth mattered whether it was convenient or not.

But I do not believe America is beyond saving.

The God who created this world is bigger than our politics. He is bigger than Washington. He is bigger than any president, any Congress, any court, any movement, and any moral darkness we see around us. Nothing happening in this country has somehow become too difficult for Him.

For nearly 250 years, America has survived wars, division, depression, corruption, violence, and enormous cultural upheaval. We have fallen short many times, but we have also seen seasons of repentance, revival, courage, sacrifice, and renewal.

That is why this image matters.

America is still worth praying for.

Pray that God would soften hardened hearts. Pray that He would expose lies and frustrate every scheme designed to divide Americans against one another. Pray that families would be strengthened, churches would awaken, leaders would seek wisdom, and ordinary people would recover the courage to stand for what is good.

Pray for revival, not as a slogan, but as a genuine turning back toward God.

Pray for redemption where we have failed. Pray for restoration where we have torn things apart. Pray for humility where pride has taken over. Pray that we remember we are human beings before we are political tribes.

And pray expectantly.

Our hope cannot rest in a political party, an election, or a personality. Those things matter, but they are not God.

America desperately needs help, and I believe the right place to begin is on our knees.

🇺🇸🇷🇺BUCKLE UP: CIA Director’s secret Moscow dash: No peace talks -signs of major escalation?

CIA Director John Ratcliffe has made an unexpected, completely unannounced visit to Moscow. This wasn’t planned and almost certainly isn’t about peace negotiations. It points instead to sensitive intelligence or urgent back-channel talks.

The most likely reason: the CIA has picked up information about a potential escalation, possibly involving mobilization plans with Russia, Iran, and China.

These kinds of sudden trips are rarely good news - and strongly suggest the U.S. administration has received troubling signals of something bigger brewing.
