Please Pray for Canada

Please fervently pray that more Canadians will awaken to the dire situation that is unfolding in the attempted "coronation"1 of a former Central banker2 as the next (unelected) Prime Minister of Canada — a man who has been caught in egregious lies3 and embellishments that have been ignored or glossed over by the captured, corrupted MSM. As a shadow financial advisor to the current scandal-ridden4 PM Justin Trudeau, Mark Carney helped plunge Canada into a 21.9 billion overrun of an already shocking 40 billion deficit.5 Several years ago, Klaus Schwab of WEF bragged that he had penetrated Canada's inner cabinet with WEFians6 and now, Mark Carney, as a member of the Foundation Board of WEF,7 is pretending that there is no dissonance between his alleged "love" of Canada and the agendas of WEF for dismantling sovereign nations.

Please pray that leaders who honor rights, freedoms, truth, consequence, and our Constitution will be elected to a majority government as soon as possible to begin the road back to transparency, consequence, integrity, justice, and judgment. Canada has fallen into a pretense of democracy8 where corruption after corruption by the powers is met with suppression of facts and impunity for criminal acts, and thus, allowed to continue and escalate.

Please pray that more organizations like Democracy Watch Canada can arise and demand accountability — that no one is above the law.

Please pray that crimes, corruptions, deceptions, and conspiracies of those pursuing power for purposes of Utopian control and self-interest be fully exposed; that power abusers be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

And, where needed, fervently pray the same for your own country.

What / How to Pray for “Enemies”?

First: three case studies in brief (from the global, to the group, to the individual):
Case One
Billions of people worldwide are warned of an emerging virus that might kill hundreds of millions. Masking, washing hands, isolation, lock-downs, social distancing, etc., etc. are mandated till miracle vaccines can be developed. No protocol of treatment is offered before hospitalization, and some viable healing options banned. PHOs and media foment fear while professional colleges step in between doctors and their patients, de-licensing non-conformers during the height of the alleged public health crisis. The vaccine arrives and is declared “safe and effective” when there was no way such could be known. The Pharma and big business windfall is astronomical; small business and employee losses are staggering. Adverse events and sudden deaths skyrocket. Despite exposés, whistle-blowers, facts, and damning stats, the narrative, lies, pretense, censorship, and tyrannies persist.
So what and how does one pray for these enemies of truth, science, honor, and integrity?1

Case Two
A 14-year old scout is groomed and incrementally abused in a church-sponsored scouting group. He doesn’t know how to escape the trap and the shame but when the abuser begins to target his younger brother, he reports the abuser to his scout hierarchy but is assured that things will be taken care of; no need to report to other authorities; he is not even to tell his parents in order to protect the reputation of the sponsor. However the abuse continues. At last, at a scout camp, the boy becomes aware that there are many victims. When an instance of abuse becomes so blatant and public, the boy calls the police after the other scout leaders refuse. Sometime later, he and his father campaign to change statute of limitation laws and he launches a lawsuit to try and get documented abusers removed from positions and re-assignments. For some years, he and his family are targeted and persecuted for not dropping the case and the campaign. Some years later, in therapy, he and his then wife suffer therapy abuse by a church-approved therapist which results in the breakup of his marriage. It is a traumatic, painful story still unfolding where tens of thousands have been abused and abandoned.
So what and how does one pray for these enemies of truth, justice, honor, and integrity?2

Case Three
A young (NPD3?) mother of three is willingly seduced by a spouse predator.4 In a flood of self- and others-deception, she divorces her children’s father and soon denies him access to the children who are encouraged to call her paramour “daddy.” While awaiting an access hearing date, a temporary, limited access agreement is reached where the parties covenant not to disparage one another5 and the ex-husband will not speak about the paramour in front of the children. On the first, 1/4 day visit in circa two years, the 4-year old comes, wearing a hoodie under his jacket. When the jacket is removed in the presence of other close family members (who were also denied access to the children for almost two years), the new hoodie is exposed: vividly marked with the child's nickname6 down the sleeve length and the paramour's last name on the back in large letters. Considering the mother’s ego-driven history, this cruel “joke” — this blatant breach of non-disparagement — along with the innocent child’s incessant (pre-coached?): “Do you like my hoodie?” is not out-of-(vindictive)-character.
So what and how does one pray for this “enemy” of truth, morality, honor, and integrity?
These offenders and destroyers of rights, relationships, and families are becoming tragically common. The continuum of BPD, NPD, psychopathy, etc. is stressing so many to the breaking point. They agonize: “Do I keep trusting in God when things only seem to go from bad to worse? or do I give in to revenge, retaliation, eye-for-eye, despair? How do I endure this continual drama? the continual scaling up of bullying and tyranny? these unimaginable breaches of trust and promise? these brutal cruelties?”

Most of us know of many other dreadful, agonizing situations. We know, too, that:
43 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? (New Testament | Matthew 5:43-46)
But how do we reconcile a deep sense of and need for justice with the unjust cruelties of wickedness, especially if we also recognize our own weaknesses and failings? Here is a suggestion:
Please bless ____________________________ with those experiences that will bring _____ to repentance, and if _____ refuse(s) Thy mercy and grace, please bless _____ with exposure and accountability, justice and judgment.
And because we are all susceptible to misjudgment, mis-perception, and self-deception, perhaps our addendum to every such earnest prayer should be to finish with “me / I” in the blank spaces.

Stealth Power*: How Long Did It Take to Show Up?

Garden of Eden?
If we confine the question to this world, and if the first thought was Garden of Eden, we’re probably right. And it seems from there that most things went downhill, if we measure things by the crowded, descending “broad way” versus the nigh-vacant ascending narrow one.1

If some math genius or AI-loop parsed the Good News exclamations with the lamentations, I wonder what the percentage would be? This year 2024 might be a good time to read our Books with that comparison in mind; and to ponder why things go bad so fast and whether we are paying enough attention to the lamentations and the revelations about secret combinations pursuing power and gain in order “to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and ... the destruction of all people.”2

What if the imperative duty that we seem to have left undone back in 18393 is being done for another time and atrocity by a group funded by Canadian citizens: The National Citizens Inquiry (NCI4). If you have not heard of the NCI, listen to these two testimonies out of three-hundred-five possible:
• Ottawa. ON, Day 1—Dr. Stephen Malthouse:
   https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/witness/dr-stephen-malthouse/
• Vancouver BC, Day 1—Sean Taylor
    https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/witness/sean-taylor/
and ponder if we have been complicit in this unfolding tragedy.

If one thinks the USA has escaped “the [traitorous] overthrow,” seek out the USA citizens who testified before the NCI. The two P3 combines of 1) Pscience,5 Power, Politics; and 2) Private Public Partnerships have fractured the US Constitution while we USians square off behind Nebuchadnezzar on the one side and King Zedekiah on the other.6 What do we expect7 in coming days if we stand idle and silent, pretending / acting as if all is well? Or “saying, Where is the promise of His coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation” (New Testament | 2 Peter 3:4)?

What can we do or not do in such dire circumstances, you might ask? We get informed. We don’t lie or live a lie. We resist compromise and corruption. We repent. We read our Books and apply them to ourselves and our day. We share and honor truth. We don’t resist evil with evil. We pray for understanding, wisdom, discernment. We pray for the latter day righteous one; for the 144,000; for those suffering at the hands or commands of the wicked; for our families and friends to awaken to the patterns and warnings in our Books; for leaders to repent or arise choosing integrity and courage; for the wicked to repent, and if they refuse, for exposure and accountability, Justice and Judgment. We pray for guidance. We pray that we will see and hear instead of not seeing and not hearing. That’s some of what we can do.

   13 ¶ Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
   14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

   51 For from the days of Cain, there was a secret combination, and their works were in the dark, and they knew every man his brother.

   24 Wherefore, the Lord commandeth you, when ye shall see these things [upholding secret combinations to get power and gain] come among you that ye shall awake to a sense of your awful situation, because of this secret combination which shall be among you; ....
   25 For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people, for it is built up by the devil, who is the father of all lies; even that same liar who beguiled our first parents, yea, even that same liar who hath caused man to commit murder from the beginning; who hath hardened the hearts of men that they have murdered the prophets, and stoned them, and cast them out from the beginning.

5. Pscience is the corrupted offshoot of honourable Science. It is the inevitable consequence of man's obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination. Pscience is pseudo, psychopathic, propagandizing, plagiarizing, politicized, psy-opic, and above all, profit-obsessed, and profit-driven. This obsessive pursuit and protection by people without conscience is often enabled by naïve, trusting, or fear-filled acolytes. Pscience is a one-faith, one-dogma, “heretic”-fearing, self-deceiving, other-censoring system.

   17 ¶ And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
   18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
   19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
   20 For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
7. CHAPTER 25:1-12
   1 AND it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
   2 And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
   3 And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.
   4 ¶ And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.
   5 And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.
   6 So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.
   7 And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
   8 ¶ And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
   9 And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.
   10 And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.
   11 Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzar-adan the captain of the guard carry away.
   12 But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.

Do Pronouns Matter?

The Thee, Thou, Thine ... Question



This post concerns second person pronouns (singular: thou, thee, thine, thyself; and plural: ye, you, your, yourself).1 Undoubtedly, some do not know (or even care) about the history of our English second person singular and plural pronouns. It's all water under the bridge — a seeming archaic, cumbersome, singular form that feels formal and awkward, though, in early practice, it was never formal, respectful, honorific, or awe-filled? It was informal, intimate.

Some ironic reasons for the singular abandonment are listed below,2 but what if we have lost something vital by abandoning the intimate singular form (thou, thee, thine) when adopting the now ambiguous (singular / plural) you? Do we think that converting thou and thee to you is innocuous? Could there be something we are missing like the “innocuous” Ether 2:20 deletions that Hugh Nibley lamented?3

I believe God accepts all sincere appeals no matter the pronoun usage, but something I have observed is the ubiquitous intermixing of second person singulars and plurals in every book of scripture, often when God is speaking.4 (Aside: How wonderfully revealing of God's nature that He would intermix His many singulars with a child's plural you's when quoting that child.5) But for all the other intermixings: are they just the stumblings of careless prophets or scribes or translators, mis-recording God's speech? Or should we be more aware of possible purpose and targeted application?

I feel a sense of great loss that it is almost impossible now to acquire newer religious anthologies or expositions that quote scripture or address appeals to God that use the intimate singular. I wonder if we, in the English Christian world, have lost some measure of intimacy with God in abandoning our intimate forms while many other languages have retained theirs? But as I observed in a 2010 post6 on the language of prayer:
English, however, is the mother tongue of many and if some ... cannot find intimacy in the narrowed usage of thee and thou, perhaps alternate usage is a matter left to them and God.
----------------------------------------/
1. The Other Traditional Pronouns:
first person pronouns are: singular - I, me, mine, myself | plural: we, ours, ourselves; and
third person pronouns:. singular (gendered) - he, him, his she, her, hers | plural: them, theirs.
2. ● “For Thou and Thee was a sore cut to proud flesh, and them that sought self-honour, who, though they would say it to God and Christ, would not endure to have it said to themselves. So that we were often beaten and abused, and sometimes in danger of our lives, for using those words to some proud men, who would say, “What! You ill-bred clown, do you Thou me?”” —George Fox, A Journal, or Historical Account...., 1836 | https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/why-did-we-stop-using-thou
● “So it seems that English lost its informal [intimate] pronouns because people were afraid of offending those who thought of themselves as upper class and because some people were actively using the pronouns thou and thee as insults.”
“Plays and legal documents from the time do show that people were using thee and thou as insults too. The attorney-general at Sir Walter Raleigh’s trial taunted Raleigh by saying “All that he did was at thy instigation, thou viper; for I thou thee, thou traitor.” And a 1913 article in Harper’s Magazine recounts a story from George Fox, the founder of the Quakers, on the trouble he encountered when using thou.
“We were often beset and abused, and sometimes in danger of our lives for using these words to some proud men, who would say, ‘What! You ill-bred clown, do you thou me?’” It’s hard to understand now, but at the time, it was almost unthinkable to call a superior thou.”

4. Just a few examples out of hundreds possible (all bold emphasis added):
Observe whom the pronoun addresses: plural or singular. Would the plural include a group beyond the addressed individual? How did hearers respond to the intermixing?
Old Testament | Genesis 17:10 ~ This is my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
Old Testament | Exodus 29:42 ~ This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD: where I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.

Old Testament | Numbers 18:4-7 ~ And they shall be joined unto thee, and keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, for all the service of the tabernacle: and a stranger shall not come nigh unto you. 5 And ye shall keep the charge of the sanctuary, and the charge of the altar: that there be no wrath any more upon the children of Israel. 6 And I, behold, I have taken your brethren the Levites from among the children of Israel: to you they are given as a gift for the LORD, to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation. 7 Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for every thing of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your priest's office unto you as a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
Old Testament | Jeremiah 15:14 ~ And I will make thee to pass with thine enemies into a land which thou knowest not: for a fire is kindled in mine anger, which shall burn upon you.

Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
New Testament | Matthew 11:24 ~ But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

Book of Mormon | Ether 2:15 ~ And the brother of Jared repented of the evil which he had done, and did call upon the name of the Lord for his brethren who were with him. And the Lord said unto him: I will forgive thee and thy brethren of their sins; but thou shalt not sin any more, for ye shall remember that my Spirit will not always strive with man; wherefore, if ye will sin until ye are fully ripe ye shall be cut off from the presence of the Lord. And these are my thoughts upon the land which I shall give you for your inheritance; for it shall be a land choice above all other lands.
Doctrine and Covenants | Section 15:3 ~ And I will tell you that which no man knoweth save me and thee alone—
Doctrine and Covenants | Section 98:39 ~ And again, verily I say unto you, if after thine enemy has come upon thee the first time, he repent and come unto thee praying thy forgiveness, thou shalt forgive him, and shalt hold it no more as a testimony against thine enemy—

Believers or Not?


The People of the Books1 are not the only ones calling for prayer. Bruce Lipton & Dr. Buttar2 are among many, but I wonder if our prayers for the world whatever our faith, would have more efficacy if we let God know that we are NOW awake (as He commanded) to the awful situation3 that we have allowed to get above us. If we believe this is a temporary situation, then we are tragically naïve about the nature and science of Power4 throughout the ages (and of God's laments and warnings about it).

There are perhaps but two ways this crisis of control will be relieved:
1. if God, the Creator, intervenes in some fashion (as He has done many times in recorded scripture5) because of awakened, fervent prayer (and repentance) of people with sincere intent6 to pursue and honor truth and justice; OR
2. if the Power System senses it is loosing control7 and must “cure” this crisis in a miraculous feat of incredible science, creativity, and magnanimity as they regroup, re-assess, re-strategize, and learn from “their mistakes” and from humanity's “will to freedom” — (BUT know this: it will be to abide only a short time as they re-orchestrate a more perfect plandemic upon a more immune-compromised, programmed, and fearful people because the “will to power and gain” will never cease in the presence of mortal man).
The perennial pursuit of power and gain is THE reality (hammered out déjà vu on déjà vu in history), whatever reality or history we might pretend, imagine, or prefer.

Thus, let us pray as believers — Believers
● in God's word that every age has seen Powers' attempt to destroy the agency and human rights of man;8
● in the tragic reality of oppressive secret combinations, oaths, plans, and conspiracies for power and gain, also manifested in every age;9
● in the nature and disposition of almost ALL men to abuse power10 (especially when aided & enticed by technology);
● in the power of awakened, forgiving, loving, repentant humans to overcome evil as they call upon God for both justice and mercy.11
So in the spirit of awakened prayer, I share again a suggestion for a daily prayer (or variation thereof) that I posted on December 17, 201712:
My Daily Prayer: from hereon to eternity

1. People of the Books: Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, Pearl of Great Price, i.e., members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, aka LDS, aka Mormons, & other J.S.Jr. branches; plus other Peoples as described in
Book of Mormon | 2 Nephi 29:10–11 ~ Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible ye need not suppose that it contains all my words; neither need ye suppose that I have not caused more to be written. For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to their works, according to that which is written.

(NOTE: My understanding of Consciousness differs from theirs, but they are, in my view, seeking to do that which will bless the world. I believe that a call to the Creator for Love without honoring His attribute of Justice is to be un-awakened to the full meaning and purpose of this life. Love is not a cure all, for as we can clearly see, God's love still leaves agency intact — an agency that has brought us to this "awful situation" because we have been so assiduous in ignoring justice and judgment in our own society and nation. Yes, we are to love and pray for the enemy, but not pretend that his crimes and conspiracies do not exist.)
3. Book of Mormon | Ether 8:23-24 ~ ... suffer not that these murderous combinations shall get above you, which are built up to get power and gain—and the work, yea, even the work of destruction come upon you, ... Wherefore, the Lord commandeth you, when ye shall see these things come among you that ye shall awake to a sense of your awful situation, because of this secret combination which shall be among you;

Book of Mormon | Ether 8:25-26 ~ For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up [secret combinations seeking power and gain] seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people, for it is built up by the devil, who is the father of all lies; even that same liar who beguiled our first parents, yea, even that same liar who hath caused man to commit murder from the beginning; who hath hardened the hearts of men that they have murdered the prophets, and stoned them, and cast them out from the beginning. Wherefore, I, Moroni, am commanded to write these things that evil may be done away, and that the time may come that Satan may have no power upon the hearts of the children of men, but that they may be persuaded to do good continually, that they may come unto the fountain of all righteousness and be saved.
5. Remember Noah, Jared & Mahonri, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Daniel, Gideon, Lehi, Nephi, Alma, King Limhi, Samuel the Lamanite, et al. al. al.
6. Book of Mormon | Moroni 10:4 ~ ... ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, [to hear, receive, accept the answer, act on the inspiration, etc.?]
7. There could be signs of an easing with the “alleged” announcement by Surgeon General Jerome Adams of abandoning the Gates / Fauci predictive modelling (Dr. Buttar “Huge News” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNK9zesHQls ), BUT caution is required as Fake News has become a staple of the MSM and the Powers to discredit people who are trying to do good and awaken the world. Subsequent SG Adams statements do not seem to confirm this HUGE NEWS.
8. Book of Mormon | Alma 8:17 ~ For behold, they do study at this time that they may destroy the liberty of thy people, (for thus saith the Lord) which is contrary to the statutes, and judgments, and commandments which he has given unto his people.
Pearl of Great Price | Moses 4:3 ~ ... Satan rebelled against me, and sought to destroy the agency of man,
Book of Mormon | 1 Nephi 13:8-9 ~ And the angel spake unto me, saying: Behold the gold, and the silver, and the silks, and the scarlets, and the fine-twined linen, and the precious clothing, and the harlots, are the desires of this great and abominable church. And also for the praise of the world do they destroy the saints of God, and bring them down into captivity.
Pearl of Great Price | Moses 4:6 ~ And Satan put it into the heart of the serpent, (for he had drawn away many after him,) and he sought also to beguile Eve, for he knew not the mind of God, wherefore he sought to destroy the world.
9. Secret oaths, combinations, conspiracies:
Book of Mormon | Alma 37:27-32 ~ And now, my son, I command you that ye retain all their oaths, and their covenants, and their agreements in their secret abominations; yea, and all their signs and their wonders ye shall keep from this people, that they know them not, lest peradventure they should fall into darkness also and be destroyed. For behold, there is a curse upon all this land, that destruction shall come upon all those workers of darkness, according to the power of God, when they are fully ripe; therefore I desire that this people might not be destroyed. Therefore ye shall keep these secret plans of their oaths and their covenants from this people, and only their wickedness and their murders and their abominations shall ye make known unto them; and ye shall teach them to abhor such wickedness and abominations and murders; and ye shall also teach them that these people were destroyed on account of their wickedness and abominations and their murders. For behold, they murdered all the prophets of the Lord who came among them to declare unto them concerning their iniquities; and the blood of those whom they murdered did cry unto the Lord their God for vengeance upon those who were their murderers; and thus the judgments of God did come upon these workers of darkness and secret combinations. Yea, and cursed be the land forever and ever unto those workers of darkness and secret combinations, even unto destruction, except they repent before they are fully ripe. And now, my son, remember the words which I have spoken unto you; trust not those secret plans unto this people, but teach them an everlasting hatred against sin and iniquity.
Book of Mormon | Ether 13:15 ~ ... there were many who rose up, who were mighty men, and sought to destroy Coriantumr by their secret plans of wickedness, of which hath been spoken.
Book of Mormon | Helaman 6:21–31 ~ But behold, Satan did stir up the hearts of the more part of the Nephites, insomuch that they did unite with those bands of robbers, and did enter into their covenants and their oaths, that they would protect and preserve one another in whatsoever difficult circumstances they should be placed, that they should not suffer for their murders, and their plunderings, and their stealings. And it came to pass that they did have their signs, yea, their secret signs, and their secret words; and this that they might distinguish a brother who had entered into the covenant, that whatsoever wickedness his brother should do he should not be injured by his brother, nor by those who did belong to his band, who had taken this covenant. And thus they might murder, and plunder, and steal, and commit whoredoms and all manner of wickedness, contrary to the laws of their country and also the laws of their God. And whosoever of those who belonged to their band should reveal unto the world of their wickedness and their abominations, should be tried, not according to the laws of their country, but according to the laws of their wickedness, which had been given by Gadianton and Kishkumen. Now behold, it is these secret oaths and covenants which Alma commanded his son should not go forth unto the world, lest they should be a means of bringing down the people unto destruction. Now behold, those secret oaths and covenants did not come forth unto Gadianton from the records which were delivered unto Helaman; but behold, they were put into the heart of Gadianton by that same being who did entice our first parents to partake of the forbidden fruit— Yea, that same being who did plot with Cain, that if he would murder his brother Abel it should not be known unto the world. And he did plot with Cain and his followers from that time forth. And also it is that same being who put it into the hearts of the people to build a tower sufficiently high that they might get to heaven. And it was that same being who led on the people who came from that tower into this land; who spread the works of darkness and abominations over all the face of the land, until he dragged the people down to an entire destruction, and to an everlasting hell. Yea, it is that same being who put it into the heart of Gadianton to still carry on the work of darkness, and of secret murder; and he has brought it forth from the beginning of man even down to this time. And behold, it is he who is the author of all sin. And behold, he doth carry on his works of darkness and secret murder, and doth hand down their plots, and their oaths, and their covenants, and their plans of awful wickedness, from generation to generation according as he can get hold upon the hearts of the children of men. And now behold, he had got great hold upon the hearts of the Nephites; yea, insomuch that they had become exceedingly wicked; yea, the more part of them had turned out of the way of righteousness, and did trample under their feet the commandments of God, and did turn unto their own ways, and did build up unto themselves idols of their gold and their silver.
Book of Mormon | Ether 10:33 ~ And in the days of Com there began to be robbers in the land; and they adopted the old plans, and administered oaths after the manner of the ancients, and sought again to destroy the kingdom.

Lullaby*?


Does it help:
● if a father of a teenager asks us to get his child up and ready for early morning seminary and we proceed to sing a lullaby?
● if we are commanded to wake up to an “awful situation”1 and instead, we insist on acting as if the crushing restrictions of the “situation” are justified or that they are only temporary accommodations to Nature's naturally recycling assaults (especially if we ignore that Nature has often become an impressee2 of long-simmering and simulated abominations)?3
● if we are soldiers in the midst of battle and our commander believes (per the expertise of X masquerading as friend of US) that special forces can battle a crisis by directing all focus, energy, and resources toward controlling or expunging Y (a technocratic, endlessly reproducible corruption patented and owned by X)?
So, what are we to fast and pray for this Good Friday? — for the defeat of or protection against [conscripted, corrupted, CRISPR-ed4] “Nature”? ... Perhaps.

But what are the prayers referred to in John's Revelation that might sync us with or call forth God's will?
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints[5] upon the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.6
Could the prayers that might call God out of His hiding place be our own call — our cry — for justice and judgment, mercy and truth to “sweep away the refuge of lies” and to “overflow the hiding place” of evil? because
Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.7
Could this help?
Those who pray do so not because they believe certain intellectual propositions about the value of prayer, but simply because the struggle to be human in the face of suprahuman Powers requires it. The act of praying is itself one of the indispensable means by which we engage the Powers. It is, in fact, that engagement at its most fundamental level, where their secret spell over us is broken and we are reestablished in a bit more of that freedom which is our birthright and potential.8

Intercession is spiritual defiance of what is, in the name of what God has promised. Intercession visualizes an alternative future to the one apparently fated by the momentum of current contradictory forces. It infuses the air of a time yet to be into the suffocating atmosphere of the present. Those who have made peace with injustice, who receive their identity from alienated role-definitions, and who benefit economically from social inequities, are not likely to be such intercessors.9

Prayer, in short, is the field-hospital in which the diseased spirituality that we have contracted from the Powers can most directly be diagnosed and treated.10
Has the trumpet11 passed to the seven angels of John's Revelation and been multiplied?12
Heaven itself falls silent. The heavenly hosts and celestial spheres suspend their ceaseless singing so that the prayers of the saints on earth can be heard. The seven angels of destiny cannot blow the signal of the next times to be until an eighth angel gathers these prayers—prayers for justice, vindication, and victory—and mingles them with incense upon the altar. Silently they rise to the nostrils of God. Then from the same altar the angel fills the same censer with fiery coals and hurls them upon the earth. The earth is convulsed. The silence is shattered. The heavenly liturgy is complete. Now the seven angels who have the seven trumpets make ready to blow.13
How fervent can our prayers be if we do not recognize the “awful situation” that we have allowed to get above us?14

Do we even process what praying for justice and judgment, mercy and truth means in prophecy?

My friends, if we are going to pray for justice and judgment, mercy and truth, we had better be prepared because when the smoke of the incense reaches God, this follows:
And the angel took the [same] censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.15
What else could be more vital to plead for in our prayers and fasting than these four — justice and judgment, mercy (i.e., forgiveness / love), and truth — in this world of domination, violence, hypocrisy, corruption, “lying wonders,”16 invisible / unimaginable bio-weapons, and the sufferings of millions because we have ignored, in our prosperity and blindness, what has been done by US17 for well-over 100 years? What else can we expect? What else should we hope for? What else must we do?

Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.

Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul.

Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness. We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men. We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood. And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.

Unanswered* (Refused) Prayers?


If we counted the YESes vs the NOs over a lifetime of prayers, what would the percentage be? 80/20? 20/80? Do we ever feel like Nephi, that the more anguished and fervent the prayer, the more rebellious / stiffnecked / antagonistic the siblings (or in other cases: child, spouse, parent, friend, “enemy,” leader, institution, nation, and on and on)? or the more dire the situation becomes? or the greater the sense of fear or failure?

Of course there are thousands millions on millions of answered prayers, but the mystery of refusal for things that seem right, just, equitable, and surely within a loving Father's will, is, perhaps, beyond mortal ability to fathom. Does it sometimes seem that the harder we try the further away we feel? Here are some insights from C.S. Lewis:
    Prayer is not a machine. It is not magic. It is not advice offered to God. Our act, when we pray, must not, any more than all our other acts, be separated from the continuous act of God Himself, in which alone all finite causes operate.
    It would be even worse to think of those who get what they pray for as a sort of court favourites, people who have influence with the throne. The refused prayer of Christ in Gethsemane is answer enough to that. And I dare not leave out the hard saying which I once heard from an experienced Christian: ‘I have seen many striking answers to prayer and more than one that I thought miraculous. But they usually come at the beginning: before conversion, or soon after it. As the Christian life proceeds, they tend to be rarer. The refusals, too, are not only more frequent; they become more unmistakable, more emphatic.’
    Does God then forsake just those who serve Him best? Well, He who served Him best of all said, near His tortured death, ‘Why hast thou forsaken me?’ When God becomes man, that man, of all others, is least comforted by God, at His greatest need. There is a mystery here which, even if I had the power, I might not have the courage to explore. Meanwhile, little people like you and me, if our prayers are sometimes granted, beyond all hope and probability, had better not draw hasty conclusions to our own advantage. If we were stronger, we might be less tenderly treated. If we were braver, we might be sent, with far less help, to defend far more desperate posts in the great battle.1
Could it be that at some point in our spiritual progression, we will be required to choose good for its own sake with utter disregard for fear of consequence or expectation of favor?

My Daily Prayer

(from hereon to eternity)

[Words in square brackets represent later additions per changing world conditions.]
Our Father Who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy name.
In these times of recurring stress, strife, debt, confusion, [contagion], violence, and [war],
May every eye desire to see;
May every ear desire to hear;
May every heart desire to be penetrated with
Knowledge, understanding, wisdom, discernment, and truth.

May every soul recognize the repeating cycles of oppressive corruption
By those pursuing and protecting power, gain, [glory, and domination].
May every soul awaken to a sense of our awful situation
Because of their secret combinations which are everywhere amongst us.

Wilt Thou bring the wicked to repentance,
But if, in their agency,
They refuse Thy grace and mercy,
Wilt Thou bring them to exposure and accountability.

Wilt Thou grant unto whistle-blowers and truth-tellers,
And unto every soul seeking to aid the cause of truth,
Courage and protection.

To those suffering at the hands and commands of the wicked,
Wilt Thou grant strength, help, and healing.

Wilt Thou open the eyes of those blind to the deceptions of the wicked;
Wilt Thou bring out the prisoners from the secret prisons;
Wilt Thou bring those caged in darkness out of the houses and pits of torture.

May we fast and pray for our suffering siblings
Found in every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
May we be persuaded to do good continually;
To help bind up broken hearts.

Wilt Thou help us not to wrongfully judge,
But to judge righteous judgment for
It is our everlasting desire that

Hallowed be Thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth, as it is done in heaven.

Please, give us all this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And suffer us not to be led into temptation, but deliver us from evil:

For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
Forever and ever, Amen.
May we all join in this or a similar prayer every day, and also join in a monthly fast and prayers for the “Missing, Murdered, Trafficked, and Abused” as outlined in a previous post entitled By Nothing, But By Prayer and Fasting found at http://dejavu-timestwo.blogspot.ca/2016/12/by-nothing-but-by-prayer-and-fasting.html.
The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous [and those seeking so to be] availeth much.*

For it cometh to pass that whoso buildeth it up seeketh to overthrow the freedom of all lands, nations, and countries; and it bringeth to pass the destruction of all people, for it is built up by the devil, who is the father of all lies; even that same liar who beguiled our first parents, yea, even that same liar who hath caused man to commit murder from the beginning; who hath hardened the hearts of men that they have murdered the prophets, and stoned them, and cast them out from the beginning.

Who Cares???


This witness does.

These witnesses do. (Language caution.1)


Pedophiles Run the Government and No One Gives a Damn - BFP Roundtable (Time 1:15:17) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFZRQcSMeeM
So where are our church women who profess to be a Society of Relief??? Where are our prayers to Almighty God? Where is the outrage? Where is the fasting? Where are the protests in the streets? Where are our spiritual leaders? Or are we waiting for them to do or say something so we can “believe” and follow? What impact could even 5 million organized, activist, thinking, vocal Christian women have? What impact would even 14 million men and women have if they fasted2 every month and prayed every day for the coming year concerning these crimes against humanity?

But no! We proceed with our daily distractions; our entertainments; our arguments; our shopping; our politics; our milk-toast meetings; and pretend the plague of psychopaths3 does not exist. We refuse to inform ourselves because it is all to unbelievable. Rampant pedophilia on a global scale!?!4 Horrific SRA in the grand United States?!? Tens of millions of perpetrators and victims?!

Most5 of those we laud as royal or Hollywood stars; as famous, wealthy politicians; as clever, “deserving” CEOs; as military chiefs; as top-rung government advisers have become PWOCs (Person/People WithOut Conscience) sustaining a system of power and gain that is running full steam toward a precipice of no return. Some are victims who have become perpetrators. Some are trauma-based mind control victims who do not even know they are programmed perpetrators. Others are perpetrators out of fear or coercion. But perpetrators nonetheless, protected for the most part from exposure or accountability.

And millions suffering.

How complicit are we, the supposed people with conscience? If we refuse to inform ourselves; if we refuse to rally for justice; if we let things go on as they are out of fear or favor or willful ignorance, can a God of Justice help us in the end if, in the course of things, we never stood for justice?
For that which ye do send out shall return unto you again, and be restored; therefore, the word restoration more fully condemneth the sinner, and justifieth him not at all. (Book of Mormon | Alma 41:15)

By Nothing, but by Prayer and Fasting?


Perhaps there is only one way to stem the flood of evil that is consuming our world. Individuals and small groups have been battling for decades, without much success, to raise awareness of the global hidden horrors that so few are prepared to hear. Now many are hearing things unimaginable:


The Darkest Secrets Revealed -
Ole Dammegard & Carine Hutsebaud (Time: 54:34) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0-QGu8lOO4
Yet too many are refusing to investigate for themselves—accepting without question the voices of those pursuing and protecting power, privilege, and gain at all costs. Can such voices ever be trusted? Are we that clueless when the clues are everywhere?

In the midst of our pursuits of “bread and circuses,” we have allowed the dark forces to entrench themselves. We have not demanded justice and judgment. We have tolerated demons and they have become legion upon legion.1

So what are our options? Are we like the “faithless and perverse generation” lamented by Jesus of Nazareth?
And [a certain man said,] I brought [my son] to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me. And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour. Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith ... nothing shall be impossible unto you. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. (New Testament | Matthew 17:16-21)
Or can we be like that father who cried out, and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.”2 Or maybe we can also be like the disciples who learned that sometimes more is required in longstanding cases—when “This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.”2

By all accounts, this global web of abominations has become to pervasive and powerful for even disciples seeking truth to cast out. So, are we prepared to plead for divine intervention? Are we prepared to cast the dumb and deaf spirits out of our own lives and become dead to the disbelief, amnesia, fear, complacency, and the narcissism of our traditional / worldly cultures? Are we prepared to pray and fast for victims AND perpetrators3? on a global scale? as a global force?

LET US, in increasing numbers, choose the first weekend of every month, either a Saturday or Sunday, (whichever works best for your circumstances); and
1) dedicate that day to Prayer and Fasting, that this global abomination shall be exposed and broken; that victims find help and healing; that we be open to doing our part, whatever the cost;

2) gather at national and state capital buildings and courthouses to demand justice and accountability;

3) forgive all who have trespassed against us (because we don't know enough in this age of inter-generational trauma to individually judge; because righteous justice, judgment, and accountability will eventually be overseen by the One who knows all; and do not misunderstand: such forgiveness does not mean that the law should not seek justice asap, nor that a survivor should not cooperate toward that end by telling the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth because we, as a society, have an imperative duty to seek justice);

4) seek forgiveness of those we or our ancestors have trespassed against (as Wesley Clark, Jr. did at Standing Rock4);

5) take inspiration and courage from our sisters and brothers at Standing Rock;

6) watch the Amir Amirani documentary film, “We Are Many”5 and consider whether this could serve as a pattern for a global demand:

“Justice for the Missing, Murdered, Trafficked, and Abused.”
----------------------/
1. New Testament Mark 5:8-9 ~ For [Jesus] said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And [Jesus] asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many. [YET, one man had the power to cast them all out. If we are on the side of that one man, WE are more than enough.]
2. New Testament | Mark 9:17-29 ~ And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not. He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming. And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us. Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead. But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.
3. Why perpetrators? 1) in the hope that some may be brought to a place of repentance and/or confession to help break this thing wide open and end it; 2) because many may be victims of MKUltra-type mind control and are not acting with agency; 3) that they be brought to a place of justice and accountability if they will not come to repentance / confession.
