Gates says China moving fast on new weapons
China has made strides in building a new stealth fighter jet and Washington is also concerned about a new ballistic missile that could theoretically explode a U.S. aircraft carrier nearly 2,000 miles out to sea. China has also apparently beaten U.S. estimates to develop that weapon.
Dems, Media Blame Tea Party, Palin for Shooting; Shooter Linked to Leftwing Politics
As U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords fights for her life after a mad gunman shot her on Saturday, some Democrats and major media have moved to pin the blame for her attack on the tea party movement and conservatives like Sarah Palin, despite the fact that the shooter was both deranged and fascinated by leftwing politics.
Coptic Christians protest in Italy
Several hundred Coptic Christians and others gathered in Rome and Milan to demand religious freedom and protection following a New Year's church attack in Egypt that killed 21 worshippers. Some 500 people gathered in a downtown Rome piazza Sunday, some holding candles, some chanting. Many said they were demonstrating against religious violence not just in Egypt but across the world.
Strong 6.9 quake strikes off Vanuatu
A strong 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck beneath the sea near the south Pacific island nation of Vanuatu, but no tsunami warning was issued, the US Geological Survey (USGS) said Sunday. There were no immediate reports of damage from the quake, which hit at 9:03pm (1003 GMT) at a depth of 31.1 kilometres (19.3 miles), 110 kilometres from the town of Isangel on Tanna island, the USGS said.
'Thousands rally over blasphemy law in Pakistan'
More than 20,000 people rallied in Pakistan's southern city of Karachi on Sunday, police said, against proposed amendment to blasphemy laws that were recently used to sentence a Christian woman to death. The protest follows Tuesday's assassination of the governor of Punjab province, Salman Taseer, by one of his bodyguards, after the politician sought to reform the law that gives the death penalty for defamation of the Prophet Mohammad.
Obama Eyeing Internet ID for Americans
President Obama is planning to hand the U.S. Commerce Department authority over a forthcoming cybersecurity effort to create an Internet ID for Americans, a White House official said here today. It's "the absolute perfect spot in the U.S. government" to centralize efforts toward creating an "identity ecosystem" for the Internet, White House Cybersecurity Coordinator Howard Schmidt said.
Obama, in blow to closing Guantanamo, signs law
President Barack Obama, in a setback to hopes for the quick closing of the Guantanamo Bay prison, reluctantly signed a bill on Friday barring suspects held there from being brought to the United States for trial. Making plain he would fight to repeal language in the law obstructing civilian U.S. trials for Guantanamo terrorism suspects, Obama said he was left with no choice but to sign the defense authorization act for fiscal 2011.
China Backs Europe, Euro for Investment, Central Bank Deputy Governor Says
Europe and the euro will remain among the most important areas of investment for China’s world-record $2.65 trillion of foreign-exchange reserves, a central bank official said in the nation’s latest show of support. “The euro and the European financial markets are an important part of the global financial system and were, are and will be one of the most important investment areas for China’s foreign-exchange reserves,” Deputy Governor Yi Gang said in a statement on the central bank’s website.
Banks lose key foreclosure ruling in top Massachusetts court
In a decision that may slow foreclosures nationwide, Massachusetts' highest court voided the seizure of two homes by Wells Fargo & Co and US Bancorp after the banks failed to show they held the mortgages at the time they foreclosed. Bank shares fell, weighing on broader stock indexes, on fears the decision could threaten lenders' ability to work through hundreds of thousands of pending foreclosures.
Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang making UK state visit
Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang has arrived in Scotland at the start of a four-day visit to the UK to promote links between the countries. The state visit is taking a focus on trade and business and includes talks with Prime Minister David Cameron and Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond. Mr Li is being greeted at Edinburgh Airport by Scottish Secretary Michael Moore.
Jo Yeates murder case: MP backs DNA testing
A MP has backed calls for the DNA screening of all men in Bristol as part of the hunt for the murderer of Jo Yeates. Miss Yeates' body was found at the roadside on Christmas Day eight days after she was reported missing. Bristol East Labour MP Kerry McCarthy said if police thought the exercise was worthwhile she believed most men would understand why they were being asked.
Cameron says banks 'should pay smaller bonuses'
Prime Minister David Cameron has called on banks to pay smaller bonuses this year. Speaking on the BBC's Andrew Marr show he said banks should be more "socially responsible". The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), which is majority-owned by the taxpayer, should not be "leading the way" on bonuses but should be a "back marker", he said.
Mexico violence: Headless bodies found in Acapulco
The decapitated bodies of 15 young men have been found in the Mexican beach resort of Acapulco. Police said they were discovered near a shopping centre and were all aged between 15 and 25. They were dumped there by drug cartel members fighting over the control of the drugs business in the city.
Arab World: Rewarding bad behavior
US President Barack Obama’s recent decision to appoint a new ambassador to Damascus is further proof positive of the effectiveness of the strategy pursued by Syria over the last half decade. It also showcases the sense that the current US administration appears to be navigating without a compass in its Middle East diplomacy. The appointment of experienced and highly regarded regional hand Robert Ford to the embassy in Damascus is not quite the final burial of the policy to “isolate” Syria.
Peretz: IDF needs to step up its attacks on Hamas
As violence escalated on the Gaza Strip border, Labor Party MK Amir Peretz said that the IDF deterrence strategy in the territory is beginning to weaken, reported Israel Radio on Sunday. The former defense minister said that the military needs to step up its reactions and attacks on Hamas; adding that he trusts the IDF and its judgment.

No Strain |
|
Be calm, no matter what may befall you. Rest in Me. Be patient, and let patience have her perfect work. Never think things overwhelming. How can you be overwhelmed when I am with you? Do not feel the strain of life. There is no strain for My children. Do you not see I am a Master Instrument-maker? Have I not fashioned each part? Do I not know just what it can bear without a strain? Would I, the maker of so delicate an instrument, ask of it anything that could destroy or strain? No! The Strain is only when you are serving another master, the world, fame, the good opinion of men - or carrying two days' burden on the one day. Remember that it must not be. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him. Psalm 37:7
blessings to you and yours this day and always ...
Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25 |

Imagine that you have been granted an audience with the king. This is the moment you’ve been waiting for—the chance to bring your requests before his majesty. The great doors open, and you are standing before the throne. In awe and reverence, you first address the king. It would be improper to just begin asking for your needs.
Jesus instructed His disciples, “This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name’” (Matthew 6:9).
The dictionary defines hallow as “to make or set apart as holy.” God is holy. He is sovereign and omniscient. He is the King of kings, the Creator of the universe. When we place our faith in His Son, Jesus Christ, He becomes our heavenly Father. As such, we have the honor and the privilege of being able to come to Him in prayer.
It is important that we know the character of God, and honor and revere Him in our prayers, actions, and thoughts. God’s character is pure, holy, flawless, loving, compassionate, righteous, just, merciful, kind, long-suffering, honest, true, dependable, faithful, and understanding.
The more we know about God, the more we grow in fellowship with Him. This carries over into our prayers. Placing Him first and foremost in our minds keeps our focus on Him instead of on our needs and desires.
However, Jesus did not intend for our prayers to become ritualistic. Nor does He tell us how to pray. But by beginning with God’s name, we are reminded that we are coming before almighty God. As children of God, we have been given free access to the throne room of the King of kings. We can address the King as our Father. There is no greater honor!
O Lord God Almighty, who is like you? You are mighty, O Lord, and your faithfulness surrounds you (Psalm 89:8).

January: Personal Life
Some things may be neglected with but little loss to the spiritual
life, but to neglect communion with God is to hurt ourselves where we
cannot afford it. The Root of the Righteous, page 9
January 9 Personal Life: Meditate Long and Often I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands, I spread out my hands to You; my soul longs for You like a thirsty land. --Psalm 143:5-6 Among Christians of all ages and of varying shades of doctrinal emphasis there has been fairly full agreement on one thing: They all believed that it was important that the Christian with serious spiritual aspirations should learn to meditate long and often on God. Let a Christian insist upon rising above the poor average of current religious experience and he will soon come up against the need to know God Himself as the ultimate goal of all Christian doctrine. Let him seek to explore the sacred wonders of the Triune Godhead and he will discover that sustained and intelligently directed meditation on the Person of God is imperative. To know God well he must think on Him unceasingly. Nothing that man has discovered about himself or God has revealed any short cut to pure spirituality. It is still free, but tremendously costly. That Incredible Christian, 135. "Slow me down, Lord, and quiet my heart this morning. Favor me with an acute awareness of Your presence as I meditate quietly for the next several minutes. I want to know You, God, so I can indeed move well beyond that 'poor average of current religious experience.' Amen."

SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST FOR TOM & NITA HORN
Folks I just learned tonight that Tom & Nita Horn of Raiders News Network and author of Apollyon Rising, well their house burnt completely to the ground yesterday.
I was a guest on Tom's Show about a month ago and I had a wonderful time. They are great people.
I have been in contact with his daughter Donna and she just sent me the following from Tom.
"The bad news is our home burned to the ground with a lot of research material and personal momentos, not counting things like suits that us old preachers wear to make ourselves look thinner or more intelligent :-) The good news is we are okay, the Lord is great and powerful, and we are inundated with love from all our friends, family and neighbors. We trust God, and all will be okay, we are certain of it and are moving forward. We will be securing a home base for operations to use as we rebuild the farmhouse, and will continue clicking along and God will give increase to other matters." Please keep the Horn's in prayer.
Please keep the Horn's in your prayers.
I was interviewed by Gianni Hayes on New World Order Disorder. It was a lot of fun and we covered a lot of ground in a lot of areas. We talked about the economy, silver, the rapture, Antichrist, government and how to fix the problems of the world. It was a good hour and a half of great discussion.
I got a lot of emails telling me that folks could not tune in so what I have done was uploaded the show to PZ Radio for all of you to listen to the fun and conversation.
