A Matter of Faith | The Way I See It

An Enemy Of God

December 8, 2020December 8, 2020 by Robert Cook

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is an enemy of God,

They are the enemy of the Chinese people, and they are the existential threat to the United States and freedom-loving people around the world.

The Chinese government has been declared a transnational criminal organization by human rights groups.

The CCP is not only engaged in slave labor to the benefit of western corporations, (including the United States) but has millions of Uighurs and other ethnic minorities held in detention camps. The church has gone underground for fear of arrest or even death.

Prayers Of The Righteous

December 6, 2020December 6, 2020 by Robert Cook

I had a thought. This is 100% me. Nothing should be read into it. It’s little more than an opinion.

For context:

I have been watching and praying with the warriors of the Global Prayer For US Election Integrity. My role is to pray and agree with those who are meeting via Zoom. I watch the event on Facebook Live.

Because I am committed to the efforts of the prayer group, much of what I read, and hear are considered in that context.

The Hammer Of Justice

December 5, 2020December 5, 2020 by Robert Cook

Does President Trump possess the courage and spirit of Caleb? Will we see the hammer of judgment and justice?

Caleb, whose name means “forcible, faithful, brave, bold, whole-heart”, had crossed the Jordan river as a scout for Moses. He knew that God would deliver the promised land. His report said as much.

The Israelites rejected his report. They were afraid. They did not want to fight. Even after witnessing the Red Sea and all that God had done for them, they were afraid. They did not trust what the Lord had already given them.

It’s a Spiritual Thing

November 27, 2020November 27, 2020 by Robert Cook

God has something to say about the election!

I have had the privilege of being on the live stream of a prayer Zoom call. It is known as the Global Prayer for U.S. Election Integrity.

There have been nine such prayer calls since November 3rd. I have been to seven live and watched the replay of the other two. You want to see prayer, join one on Facebook live. It is hard for me to think that God is not in charge.

In contemporary America however, it appears harder to grasp the idea of God is real… let alone in charge.

Christian Fiction For Unbelievers

November 23, 2020December 23, 2020 by Robert Cook

I didn’t write my Christian Novel, Joyce – A Spiritual Warfare Novel for Christians. Yes, I want Christians to read it, but it was not written for, or to Christians.

No, Joyce – A Spiritual Warfare Novel was written for unbelievers so that they might believe.

Yes, you read that correctly. There is a long explanation, but the intent of the book is to help those who don’t get the whole “being saved” thing. By reading it, they will realize there is a purpose for salvation.

Are You Still Praying?

November 18, 2020November 18, 2020 by Robert Cook

Are you praying? Specifically, are you praying for America? Are you seeking an honest election result? Are you asking the Lord for truth and justice?

The Presidential election is not decided. If you believe the news, you will think that Joe Biden was elected.

The truth is, there is no winner. The votes are not final. No votes have been certified. Every vote has not been counted. In addition, there are serious questions about votes that have been counted.

Have you heard of Global Prayer for U.S. Election Integrity?

There Is Power In Prayer

November 7, 2020November 7, 2020 by Robert Cook

When I learned of a Global virtual prayer meeting to be live-streamed, I had to attend. The heart of those praying for America and the world was staggering. Being in the presence of so much faith had an effect that I did not expect.

I did not expect to be overwhelmed by the spirit of God, but that is what happened.

America has been under attack from forces, some of which are not of this world, for more than four years. The election of 2020 is a culmination of the attacks and it’s evil. Perhaps an evil greater than the plague that came from China.

Are You Asking What If?

November 4, 2020November 4, 2020 by Robert Cook

Do you ever do What ifs? What if this happens, or what if that happens?

I was tempted to do exactly that several days ago. To list ‘what ifs’. To speculate how I would react. What would I do?

About what, you ask?

What would I do if the President was not re-elected? On the day following the election, that possibility seemed all too likely.

It’s A Clear Choice, Right?

October 25, 2020October 25, 2020 by Robert Cook

Maybe it’s just me, but recent comments on the presidential race have me scratching my head. Really! This almost feels personal, that my choice is not so clear.

What am I talking about? Certain theologians are not telling me (us) how to vote, but rather explaining why my (our) vote could be wrong. It’s almost like, ‘I know you’re sincere, but you’re sincerely wrong.’

I take it to mean that neither choice (candidate) is worthy of support. I wonder who the theologians with all the answers will pick. Or is that left to the less sincere?

Pray For Revival

October 22, 2020October 22, 2020 by Robert Cook

Are you ready for revival? Are you ready for a Great Awakening? Are you ready for God to shake the nation, all the people of every tongue, and tribe? A mighty move in the hearts of the people calling them back to Him? Then pray.

What does that mean?

God is trying to get our attention. 9/11 was a warning, but America did not repent. There was a financial collapse in 2008, America did not repent. Now blatant corruption is at the gate, ready to take power in America. To transform the nation, limiting freedom and liberty.

God wants America to turn away from all the sins that have been allowed to occur. As a nation, the sins are sanctioned, approved at the highest levels. God wants America to repent and return to Him.
