The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Our Authority

Posted on May 10, 2026 by Chip Murray

Jezebel becomes 2 Kings 9:33 dog food in T-minus 17 and counting…

Whoso causeth the righteous to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit: but the upright shall have good things in possession. ~ Proverbs 28:10

I woke up to the evil our government had become at my first Tea Party event in Washington DC in 2009. I joined Oath Keepers after that same evil managed to marginalize the Tea Party movement in 2012. After putting the Orange County NY chapter on the map with the help of a retired Middletown police detective, three of us, including a retired deputy sheriff, were invited to sit on the national board in 2017. It was from there that God armored us with A Psalm (Heart) & Proverb (Wisdom) a Day Drives the Tyrant Away.    

This was yesterday’s:

A Psalm (Heart) & Proverb (Wisdom) a Day Drives the Tyrant Away! PS 5:8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. 

PR 11:4 Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death. 

MAX ~ CHARTING THE COURSE FOR OTHERS ~ Proverbs 28:10 THE most clear warning to public educators, politicians, community and church leaders…the Town Fathers, so called…in the entire Bible! 

The same evil that took down the Tea Party finally managed to ensnare Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys and hundreds of American patriots with the help of Soros/Communist-funded groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center and traitors in our own government on January 6!

HOW IS ALL OF THIS POSSIBLE???

Fast forward to the present day when a very special friend God has placed in my life shares this absolutely stunning and enlightening message from a pastor by the name of John Paul Jackson (deceased) who shines heaven’s light on the difference between Power & Authority.                                                                                                                                    

Yet another clue…

Whitefield used to say that some ministers would go from the first of January to the end of December with a perfectly whole skin. The Devil never thought them worth attacking. ~ Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare

Finally, to bring it all home. God showed me our Nehemiah chapter 1 moment after watching New York City fall to a Communist/Islamist mayor, with our “Rise Up & Build” putting our Orange Strong members on our “wall” at Orange County Legislature meetings following forty days of prayer and fasting and seeking the LORD’s favor. On April 10, Youth-in-Government-Day, we watched the same evil that marginalized the Tea Party, Oath Keepers, and American patriots lead every youth present further from the light of truth into the dark lies of the matrix. We watched as government declared April Autism Acceptance Month, knowing full well the cause of Autism and why there are no Amish children that suffer from it, and Child Abuse Awareness Month, while promoting, condoning, and accepting the sexual grooming of children in our public schools for years, turning down the child-sex-trafficking training, while shielding a predator in a local school district through NY ED Law 23B ALL in that same week!

And then at the May 7 Legislature meeting I watched the same evil reward people I knew as friends and fellow Christians on the other side of what I now call the Obama divide, who have all submitted themselves to the same evil that appears so good, so fair, so nice and inclusive…oozing equity…ALL in 100% violation of God’s Word, Proverbs 28:10!

The same evil is the spirit of Jezebel. I realized that when a prophet failed to deliver God’s Word, a serious warning of danger, to her own pastor weeks ago. I saw it yesterday, well concealed, it feeds, protects, and enables the Ahab weakness of men…suppressing the masculine in order to retain power and its own illegitimate authority. The Good News? It is seen, It knows It is seen, and that changes EVERYTHING! Strengthen James 4:8 Relationship to reclaim the  Constitutional & Biblical Authority God has blessed us with over the Tyrant Jezebel, and there is no power in this world that can stop OUR AUTHORITY!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Unmask The Wolves

Posted on May 3, 2026 by Chip Murray

We know who you are…

While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them. ~ John 12:36

Love him or hate him, President Donald Trump is unmasking the wolves that have preyed on the American people at every level, and in every institution of our society, from the Federal:

“The fact that you can’t give me a straight answer about something as fundamental as what a woman is, underscores the dangers of the kind of progressive education that we are hearing about.” ~ Senator Marsha Blackburn questioning SCOTUS appointee Ketanji Brown Jackson from Bobbie Anne Cox, The Power To Appoint

…to the local:

In fact, after considering all the facts I have just laid out before you, it appears that this school district has created the ideal hunting ground for predators. ~ Chip Murray of the Orange Strong Protect Our Kids Committee comments to the Warwick Central Valley School District BOE on April 21st.

This is why they’ve tried to kill him three times is the last two years…

Cole Allen wrote this in his manifesto before trying to shoot Trump: “I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.”

This is what happens when the Democrats and the media knowingly falsely call Trump a rapist pedophile. The Democrats & the Media incited this. They knew exactly what they were doing.

How did the wolves manage to get in and have their way all across our once great and secure republic? 20/20 in the rear view. Jeff Bayard shared last week, The institution God ordained to be the conscience of a nation—and its refusal to speak. ~  Virginia Christian Alliance

And Jamie Walden shines the light on a church gone dark and spiritually impotent this week:

A wholesale repudiation of Jesus Christ having lordship in their lives. The Great Falling Away

The absolute truth of the opening John 12:36 scripture above is described by Oswald Chambers as follows; Intuition in the natural world means that we see or discern at sight, there is no reasoning in connection with it, we see at once. When the Spirit of God is in us He gives us intuitive discernment, we know exactly what He wants; then the point is, are we going through identification with our Lordin order that the intuitive light may become the discipline of our lives?

So, we have blind cowards in our pulpits and watchmen who receive His word of warning and fail to deliver the warning to the ears that need to hear it most. The good news is that it matters not. As it occurred to me last week: They have our children, and the vast majority of us are too spiritually aloof, indifferent, and undiscerning to see it. BUT, make no mistake, brothers and sisters, it was seen Tuesday night at the Warwick Valley Central School District BOE, and it knows it was seen! That changes everything!

My message to the wolves I know are reading these words. Your time is worn and our time has just begun. We now know who and where you are, AND, we are being trained by the very best how to hunt you and eliminate you as a threat to our children.

The masks are cracking, their stages torn. The wicked tremble, their time is worn. Sons and daughters lift up their voice; the Sword of the Spirit we made our choice. Unmask the wolves, reveal the light. The Great I Am, Your Truth will rise! ~ Unmask the Wolves

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ They Have Your Children!

Posted on April 26, 2026 by Chip Murray

ARC’S Success Rate? 100%

Our Lord always preaches anti-self-realization; He is not after developing a man at all, He is after making a man exactly like Himself, and the measure of the Son of God is self-expenditure. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Sacrament of Sacrifice

There was a showdown in Warwick this past Tuesday night. It was a showdown in the heavenlies where all spiritual warfare is waged. There are two sides in the war of all wars; the creature’s (Satan), and the Creator’s (God). The battle is over what Satan, the ruler of this world wants most, and what God, the Creator of this world loves most…our children. If the measure of God is self-expenditure (sacrificial love), then the measure of Satan is self-fulfillment (rebellious pride)…

Never again will she get the best of me!
Never again will she take away my freedom.
And we won’t forget the day we fought
For the right to be a little bit naughty!

We are revolting children…
Living in revolting times…
We sing revolting songs
Using revolting rhymes.
We’ll be revolting children,
‘Til our revolting’s done, Matilda/Revolting Children

They have our children, and the vast majority of us are too spiritually aloof, indifferent, and undiscerning to see it. BUT, make no mistake, brothers and sisters, it was seen Tuesday night at the Warwick Valley Central School District BOE, and it knows it was seen! That changes everything! Job is the oldest book in the Bible. It’s the story of Satan’s wager with God over the faithfulness of God’s servant Job. Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and eschweth evil (Job 1:8)?

The consideration that Satan pays to God’s saints is this: he regards them with wonder when he considers the difference between them and himself. A traitor when he knows the thorough villainy and blackness of his own heart, cannot help being astounded when he is forced to believe another man to be faithful. The first resort of a treacherous heart is to believe that all men would be just as treacherous, and are really so at bottom. The traitor thinks that all men are traitors like himself, or would be, if it paid them better than fidelity. ~ Charles Spurgeon, Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare, “Satan’s Considerations” 

When we view Tuesday night’s BOE meeting through a spiritual lens we see the four stakeholders on this battlefield for our children; God, Satan, Job (God’s faithful), and Job’s friends (the unsaved). Satan, like God, has ground rules. He has to be in your face (Revolting Children) while concealing his identity and intent. In his prideful arrogance he thinks he can destroy truth by concealing and censoring it as he did in the Warwick Advertiser’s coverage of the event. The reader would have NO idea that the Protect Our Kids Committee of Orange Strong was there to present the problem of Americans’ appetite for child pornography, 400,000 children gone missing every year, and the sexual grooming of our children in our public schools; and ARC Training as the proposed SOLUTION!

Orange Strong BOE Comment https://www.facebook.com/reel/2065306460863758 & BOE Atty Response to my “Reasonable Suspicion” question at the 4:20 mark: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/17JXGLsB23/

As I wrote in the follow-up summary, I did not plan to make our ARC presentation to the County Municipal Police Chiefs Association on the very day an alleged teacher/coach predator was made publicly known in the very school district of the Chief who invited us. I certainly could not have planned to have the most above reproach man of God I know present at the precise time to be serenaded by the spirit of Jezebel! And to wake up to Derek Prince’s revelation of the same the very next morning. ONLY God could plan and orchestrate such a rescue!   

What’s the Mark 3:27 strong man over the United States? I would say essentially, rebellion. See, the United States was conceived in rebellion. It’s an amazing thing! In history we British talk about the American War for Independence. The Americans call it the American Revolution. It’s just astonishing. Now I’m not criticizing those who revolted, if I had been a patriot in the day of George Washington, I’d have done the same. But the fact of the matter is that the nation was conceived in rebellion, and there’s something that that goes very close with rebellion. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. And the other strong power over the United States is witchcraft. ~ Casting down Strongholds ~ Derek Prince

Jezebel, as with any weed, must be taken out by the root! Repeal the 19th Amendment!! Dale Partridge

The public school system is designed to dumb you down and train you to be obedient to the rich and powerful who receive a totally different education in how to operate as the future ruling class. We Can’t Fix What We Refuse To Face! #Return2ClassicalEducation!

And finally…BRING BACK MEN WHERE THEY’RE NEEDED MOST! This is no longer about a redistricting amendment (Virginia). It’s about the institution God ordained to be the conscience of a nation — and its refusal to speak. ~ Virginia Christian Alliance

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ A Disdain For God

Posted on April 19, 2026 by Chip Murray

The consideration that Satan pays to God’s saints is this: he regards them with wonder when he considers the difference between them and himself. A traitor when he knows the thorough villainy and blackness of his own heart, cannot help being astounded when he is forced to believe another man to be faithful. The first resort of a treacherous heart is to believe that all men would be just as treacherous, and are really so at bottom. The traitor thinks that all men are traitors like himself, or would be, if it paid them better than fidelity.

~ Charles Spurgeon, Spurgeon on Prayer & Spiritual Warfare, “Satan’s Considerations” 

If you need a reason to love, believe, and trust in God, look no further than to those who hate, loath and disdain Him. Beware the Perpetual Moral Busy-Bodies! God, in His infinite mercy and grace, is preparing each of us for our own White Funeral death to self-will, as Lord Alfred Tennyson referred to it. I was blessed this week to be on a prayer call led by Donica Hudson, author of the wonderful book, Pray America Great. I pray for you to take the time to listen to the replay here:

Dial 202-926-1032

Access Code 988990#

Ref code 3240#

We are at a John 6:68 crossroad my friends. Donica’s prayer is both revelation and wake-up call to the true Spirit of America that resides in each and every one of us. Think of us as Job in the classic Bible story of God’s challenge to Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job (Job 1:8)?

There are only four stakeholders in the entire world in this very hour; God, Satan, Job’s friends, and Job (you and me)…that’s it!

Helen Andrews dropped a blunt explanation for why wokeness proved so hard to kill: It’s rooted in feminine patterns of conflict — where disagreement isn’t debated, it’s treated as emotional harm that must be punished or silenced. Instead of open argument (like James Damore’s memo at Google), the response became “I can’t believe you said that” followed by attempts to get the person fired. Men tend to argue, resolve, and move on. Women, she argues, are more likely to hold onto grievances.

If wokeness is partly a byproduct of rapid feminization of institutions, Andrews warns it won’t simply vanish with one election. It may be structural. She points to overly “HR-ified” workplaces where feminine preferences for emotional safety now dominate promotions, culture, and daily life — often sidelining masculine strengths in the process. Do you think some institutions have become too feminized in ways that suppress open debate and masculine virtues? Or is this framing off base? ~ “Demographic Feminization”

Whatever happened to the “common” in common sense? My friend Dr. Kreutz has been too busy studying to read the Tune-ups, but the answer to his question is that common sense as a quality of the common man has been comatose for quite some time for the reasons Helen Andrews so accurately described above…paving the way for the Islamification of America Dr. Kreutz warns us of below.

As a nation, have we lost our minds? Find out why we cannot communicate and why we are so split over political issues and everyday communication with this podcast by Pastor Austin T. Kreutz. The video link is mentioned in the podcast. https://sproutsschools.com/bonhoeffers-theory-of-stupidity  Listen here

Aaron Copeland, inspired by common American men during World War ll, composed the Fanfare for the Common Man. I would like to dedicate this ELP rendition to my dear friend G.R. Mobley, of ReclaimingTheRepublic.org

We WILL reclaim our Great God-given Republic, but not one second before we reclaim our masculine virtue, our Job-like love of God, and the FAITH of the Three Hebrew Boys!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ A Great Awakening

Posted on April 12, 2026 by Chip Murray

…From the Great Entanglement!

And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. ~ Joshua 24:15

Brothers and sisters, I beg you to indulge a great awakening in me sparked by the Sight & Sound movie masterpiece A Great Awakening we went to see on Friday. First off, to state an irrefutable fact, our Founders were much closer to God than we are today. This being the case, it would be safe to reason that they were in a far better place to discern in and trust His wisdom than we are today…

The man who does not know God depends entirely on his own wits and forecasting. If instead of arranging our own programs we will trust to the wisdom of God and concentrate all our efforts on the duty that lies nearest, we shall find that we meet God in that way and in no other. ~ Oswald Chambers, God’s Haphazard Order

We were very close to not becoming a United States in the Summer of 1787. The colony delegates were locked in what seemed a hopeless stalemate. I knew that Benjamin Franklin’s call to prayer broke the stalemate. I did not realize the existence of the business partnership Franklin had formed with the British Evangelist George Whitefield, and his influence on Franklin bringing about the conversion to Christ in one (candle) that changed the course of history.

Then this morning…and bear in mind our Orange Strong Bible study has been focused on Derek Prince’s 12-part Demons and Demonology since January. I woke up to the following two articles which I will connect to Joshua 24:15, God’s Haphazard Order, Galatians 5:1, my AXA boss’ “That ship has sailed” quote following the same-sex-marriage ruling, and last but FAR from least, the  pièce de resistance; the 19th Amendment of the Constitution of these United States.

My favorite New York Attorney asks a question: Is There A Demonization Within Our Nation?

My friend and brother Chad from Texas answers: Few and Defined

In one of the many powerful scenes in the movie, the will of man attempts to thwart the Spirit of God during Rev. Whitefield’s sermon to the people of the Church of England. Not only did it fail, it captured the essence of our churches in America today…weak, impotent, and devoid of Holy Spirit! I don’t think, I know God is about to bring the same miracle He brought to our thirteen colonies in 1787. The church today is the pre-conversion Franklin…full of itself with nothing to show. Why? Weak men. The demon missing in Bobbie Anne’s piece shows up clear as day in Chad’s. Read the woman’s comments and know for a fact you are reading the Jezebel spirit that the pre-conversion church has submitted to through weakness, cowardice, and silence…until now. God tells us in His Gal. 5:1Word that we can in fact disentangle ourselves: Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

We disentangled ourselves from the dreadful mistake of Roe v Wade. My AXA boss now admits the same mistake exists in same-sex-marriage ruling. Disentanglement is not a matter of if, but of when…leaving the last and perhaps most devastating entanglement of all…the 19th Amendment. God made man to rule over his house; as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. The Serpent split the vote, and the rest is bloody history!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ When the World Turns Around, L.E.A.D.Encouraging

Posted on April 5, 2026 by Chip Murray

He gave you this day…OWN IT!

And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. ~ Luke 24:2-3

Brothers and sisters, please bear with me today. My heart is heavy with the grief and despair that comes with losing EVERYTHING you believed and trusted to be true. We believed in Him and who He was all the way until He wasn’t…and then our world fell completely apart…

The Holy Spirit has been given; Jesus has been glorified; now the waiting depends on our fitness, not upon God’s providence. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Promise of the Highest

Second, let us briefly examine the substance of this sacrifice. “Let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually.” To praise God continually will require a childlike faith in Him. You must believe His word, or you will not praise His name. Doubt snaps the harp strings. Questions mar all melody. Trust Him, lean on Him, enjoy Him—you will never praise Him unless you do. Unbelief is the deadly enemy of praise. ~ Charles Spurgeon On Prayer & Spiritual Warfare.

Yesterday I read a post from a brother I grew up with in Wyckoff, NJ. He and his wife were having lunch or dinner in a restaurant, and they decided to leave the minute a couple walked in wearing “No Kings” T-shirts. He did not come and die on the Cross for us to surrender territory to the enemy! Waiting depends on our fitness. All I see in my church, brothers and sisters, is surrender…

Last week on Palm Sunday, Frocine, Stephen, and myself left Howells Church following the service to drive to the Westchester Bluegrass Club in Purdys to see my favorite band, Chris Jones & The Night Riders deliver two hours of beautiful music on a beautiful day. I am pretty certain that we were in the middle of a “No Kings” crowd, BUT I wore my Orange Strong colors and owned the space because He died to give me the authority to do so! “What If You’re Wrong?”

In 2019 I knew He was turning the world right-side-up again, and I have lived every day since preparing for what that means in my local community…contrary to what the enemy would have us believe. “Being on the Left is a disease of the soul.” ~ Javier Milei

The Holy Spirit is absolutely honest; He indicates the things that are right and the things that are wrong. ~ Oswald Chambers, The Promise of the Highest…be right brothers and sisters. He made you to be so! And MOST importantly, be encouraged.

When we’re right-side-up again, no matter where and when, gotta give the Devil his due. Gotta send him back to Hell, that ain’t no easy sell, just the price of a heavenly view. When it all goes down, won’t find me sittin’ around, wonderin’ what am I gonna do. When TRUTH is back in town, honest men will come around, make a better world for me and you! ~ When The World Turns Around

“America is back. We refuse to accept an “acceptable facsimile” of anything anymore. We want the real things. Real health, not pills. Real peace, not pallets of cash. Real space, not ‘political outreach.’ The Great Reformulation isn’t just about food— it’s about a return to truth itself. And it’s about time. And I, for one, am here for it.” ~ Coffee & Covid, Reformulated

Today’s Tune-up is dedicated to the memory of Steven who tragically lost his life in a fire yesterday morning, his wife Yvonne and my brother in Christ Ryan, his wife Celia, Steven’s sister, and the entire family suffering this enormous and painful loss.

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ No Kings? (38)

Posted on March 29, 2026 by Chip Murray

He weeps…

The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.            ~ Proverbs 29:4

As Paul wrote in his “prison epistle” to the Ephesians in chapter 6, verse 12, For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. There is no better place to view the truth of Paul’s words than to see and feel the energy and spirit behind most Progressive-Liberal events these days, whether you were at the No Kings Rallies yesterday, or any anti-ICE protests, or LGBTQ events. We had a promising young man; a Teen Republican at point of graduating to Young Republicans last year who defected to the Democrat Party here in New York last Summer. He was the kickoff speaker at the No Kings Rally in Warwick yesterday! He tried feebly to explain his defection to one of our Orange Strong members who was there photographing all of the out-of-state license plates…as this report from the Daily Signal comes  on the same day, Teen kills mother for misgendering her.

Today is day 38 of the Nehemiah 40-day prayer and fast. It’s also the day Christians around the world celebrate Jesus’ triumphant arrival in Jerusalem, Palm Sunday. Luke 19:41 tells us, “And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it.” They did not know who he was then, and they do not know who the true King is now…the former Young Republican didn’t choose the party that turns children into monsters because of values. He chose it for the Proverbs 29:4 gifts. In other words, he consciously sided with the principalities, the powers, and the rulers of the darkness, to the eternal damnation of his own soul…as Jesus wept!

Nehemiah wept over the same city 445 years before Jesus. He tells us in Nehemiah 1:6 “Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open that thou mayest hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee now, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, and confess the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my Father’s house have sinned.”

Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; and also the (King’s) words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work (Nehemiah 2:18).

How To Take Our Country Back

  1. We have to take our counties back first. Counties are parent to the states are parent to the Fed.
  2. We cannot do that without the Constitution. Just because our people and our politicians have ignored it does not mean it doesn’t exist as the supreme law of the land!
  3. We have to change the focus from Progressive v Conservative to shift the argument from moral authority to Constitutional authority.The Blakeman Example: We will support a pro-choice candidate who makes our Constitution the foundation of his platform.
  4. The Republican Party IS the apparatus.
  5. We have to convert the party to the Constitution. Candidates to be vetted accordingly. Candidates who want our support must sign the pledge.
  6. Interposition through 1st Amendment Petitions is the ONLY way back to Constitutional governance.
  7. The Proverbs 29:4 Challenge: The lower magistrates receive “gifts” from the higher magistrates designed to restrain their higher calling to interpose. They must understand the long-term gain outweighs their short-term interest.
  8. Finally, we need to rally and unite our church and patriot communities to come together on our Nehemiah Wall. We have to present a force of remonstration to let our interposing magistrates know that we will have their backs!

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ The Creature Comforts

Posted on March 22, 2026 by Chip Murray

The Love to Die For…

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? ~ Luke 6:46

A fellow Christian I’ve known for the past fifteen years or so posted the following Francis Schaeffer quote on Friday, “Here is the great evangelical disaster – the failure of the evangelical world to stand for truth as truth. ACCOMMODATION – the World Spirit of This Age.” To which I responded, “There is only one pulpit that has called it out, and I have watched the Jezebel spirit drag husbands by their snout rings away from it.” The Proverb from A Psalm & Proverb a Day just happened to be 31:3 “Give not thy strength to women, nor thy ways to that which destroys kings.” EXACTLY what we have done!

Rounding out Friday’s Creature Comfort Trifecta, this gem from Luke 18:25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God…because WE never understood why the cheese was free.

Could this be why…

When we hear or read about population control, it does not mean that there are too many people, as the propaganda implies. It means that there are too many non-producing, consuming people. Not only do we have an aging population, but we also have a growing population of poor, non-producing consumers. Thus, we get reports like the one in The Federalist that “Gov. J.B. Pritzker, D-Ill., signed into law a bill that would allow doctors in Illinois to prescribe the deaths of their own patients. Under the new law, which goes into effect in September 2026, terminally ill people above the age of 18 will be able to get a suicide drug from their doctor, making Illinois the 12th state in the country to allow assisted suicide.” ~ Bob Livingston

Brewer’s 1894 Dictionary of Phrase and Fable defines “creature comforts” as “food and other things necessary for the comfort of the body”. Man being supposed to consist of body and soul, the body is the creature, but the soul is the “vital spark of heavenly flame”.

And then He showed me the creature behind it ALL… (This is all on Friday mind you!)

The Creature from Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve, by G. Edward Griffin

“The book is controversial and has been debunked for its factual inaccuracies and antisemitic and racist conspiracy theories.” In other words, it was ALL true!

The very same creature who fattened Solomon for the kill, and sidelined Western “Too in Love With His Stuff to Fight” Man in this hour of all hours, is him that Jesus saw fall like lightning from heaven (Luke 10:18).

Charlie Kirk, the ZIONISM debate and the question of our salvation. Ye shall know them by their fruits (Matt. 7:16). The creature battles in the flesh because it knows it has no power against those with “the vital spark of heavenly flame.” So, it will come at you with name-calling, threats, coercion, censorship, manipulation, intimidation, blackmail, and in Charlie Kirk’s case, murder. But…

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. ~ Revelation 17:14

“Can a Believer Lose Their Salvation, Part 1?” ~ Ashley Hays

“Can a Believer Lose Their Salvation, Part 2?” ~ Ashley Hays

On the other hand, a Nicky Cruz contemporary and longtime friend of Pastor Steve’s shared his personal testimony with Howells Church earlier this year. Years ago he suffered a heart attack, died, and was taken up to heaven where he saw everything to come, and that 95% of those who call themselves Christians will deny Christ. Check your “heart posture” brothers and sisters…that’s all I can tell you.

The God who loves us reveals Himself in six beautiful verses! “It’s not what you know…” Molly Deprato

Oh…the last portion of my response to the fellow Christian on Friday, “We are the best equipped army on the face of the earth…too afraid to take the field. Denial is not a river in Egypt!”

Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful creator. ~ 1 Peter 4:19

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Self-Preservation at the Narrow Gate (24)

Posted on March 15, 2026 by Chip Murray

Count your storms a blessing! He’s preparing you to pass through…

Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. ~ Luke 13:24

My Deliverance on March 11, 2026

Background: I’ve always enjoyed a good drink; cocktail before dinner, wine with a meal, and a beer or two now and then. It always seemed to make life a little more enjoyable. Except for that DWI in 1984 (.86 in the breathalyzer), I’ve lived a responsible life, built a successful financial planning practice, which I sold and retired from in 2020. All in all, a pretty good ride, blessed with good friends, not so lucky in love (except for my church family), married and divorced twice. But here’s where it gets VERY interesting brothers and sisters…

When I accepted Jesus Christ and was born again in 2015, a new life began to take shape in me. From that day to this, the promise of God’s Word in James 4:8, slowly, steadily, and patiently transformed me into more of the new man, and less of the old…except for one very clever, shrewd, and conniving houseguest that has still remained…until Wednesday, March 11. Up until then folks, I may have been the most functional Alcoholic in the world! Here’s what happened leading up to March 11th…

Orange Strong Bible Study began a 12-part study of Derek Prince’s teachings on Demons & Demonology on January 20th. At the very beginning I predicted/hoped there would be deliverance in our group/circles. We have completed part 6. One of many things we’ve learned is that saved believers can, and often do, host unclean spirits. What’s another word for alcohol? Spirits!

On Monday of this week, I met with a young brother to pray. During our time together I sensed a heaviness and struggle in him. Fortunately, he opened up about the addiction struggle he and many other men are having today and we were able to pray over it and against it. Here’s the kicker: I remember thinking, “This is what is taking men out of the fight!”…oblivious to my own demon!

That same night I joined a 7-9pm Zoom call hosted by patriots in Virginia with patriots joining in from around the country. I was asked to be one of the speakers to share with the group what we’re doing here in Orange County.

The next day I watched the recording, and I could see the houseguest…in my place! I’m probably the only one who saw it. I spoke early but fell asleep at about the 1hr 30min mark missing the last segment and closing prayer. This shook me to my core, as I believe He meant it to. At that moment I saw the spirit for what it was; the deceiver, the hypocrite, the liar…it had no place to hide. I woke up Wednesday morning and it was gone!

I get up every morning at 4am, shower, light a candle, prepare for prayer, and pray before spending time in the Word. Wednesday morning everything was different. I was lighter and brighter…in the candlelight of preparation with eyes closed, I could see images joyfully dancing around me…they felt like angels to me.

My Chambers read that very morning:

And then the following morning, God plants this seed of affirmation in my Psalm & Proverb a Day…

A Psalm (Heart) & Proverb (Wisdom) a Day Drives the Tyrant Away! PS 119:57 * CHETH.* Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words.

PR 23:30, 33 They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things.

MAX ~ LEADERSHIP INSIDE—THEN OUT ~ Numbers 32:13 “The first and best victory is to conquer self.”

For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. ~ Luke 14:11

There is something amazingly humbling …in being loyal to God. ~ Oswald Chambers, Defiant Humility 🙏♥️🙏

Fellow patriots, I know I am not alone in having been blind to that which was holding me back from who my Creator made me to be. From my perspective, everything was OK. If you have God’s Holy Spirit in you, His perspective will eventually win, OR, you will choose to stay with your own. Before we get too hard on ourselves, we need to realize that the American church let its guard down a very long time ago. It is time for men to hold themselves and our churches accountable and choose: Are we to be loyal to ourselves, or loyal to God (Joshua 24:15)?

We cannot fix what we will not face. ~ Catherine Austin Fitts

“When self-preservation gets a foothold, we fail miserably.”  ~ Jamie Walden https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNBth6OPdWo&t=302s

“Stop cursing your storms and start giving thanks for them.” ~ Jorge Vega, Orange Strong Train Them Up Committee (Prov. 22:6) https://www.facebook.com/reel/1227288362410420

Please feel free to share with anyone you know who is going through the same struggle. Tell them from me that love may be “a many splendored thing,” but liberation is the father of true love, not found in any of the ISM’S, but in the Christian. For who can truly love while under the yoke of Satan? Lastly, please feel free to give them my contact info to be available to them as a brother to pray with and talk to…in this late hour.  

Your brother in Christ,

Chip

The Sunday Morning Tune-up ~ Honor In The Valley

Posted on March 8, 2026 by Chip Murray

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; ~ Psalm 23:4

Think about it…we were all children once. If you were abducted or lost, wouldn’t you want to know that someone was coming to rescue you? The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. We hold ourselves to the highest moral consciousness, knowing that children are the future. If we do not protect them, then we do nothing more than sow the seeds of destruction within our own nation, as well as others. In a world of changing and declining moral values, one trait distinguishes us from the other more clearly than race, gender, creed, or color. That trait is honor…honor feeds the spirit and soul of those who take it as their way of life. Honor must be freely embraced and treasured, not for the material benefits which it might bring, but for the knowledge that one has obeyed the moral law. ~ Bazzel Baz, Association for the Recovery of Children

On June 1st of last year, the Holy Spirit interrupted our CLOTH right in the middle of prayer with, WHAT ABOUT MY CHILDREN??? We spent the rest of that meeting in intercessory prayer and appeals to Heaven focusing on the horrors of child-sex-trafficking, abortion, and the insanity of transgenderism. Since that moment, Orange Strong members attended a conference in Yuba City, CA. to raise monies for Peace of Heaven, a Safe Home for children rescued from CST, attended the intense 6-day training taught by Bazzel and his wife Tina in Minneapolis last September, and formed two brand new committees; Protect Our Kids for the purpose of making it next to impossible for our children to become prey to trafficking predators, and Train Them Up (Prov. 22:6) to plant Christian Clubs in our High Schools to teach them God’s way…

The teachers tried to mold him with words and fancy rules, but Honor sang a different song and danced to a different tune. ~ Honor

I wrote Honor years before I was saved, but today in the context of Bazzel’s message above and the discernment of the Holy Spirit, I realize He was preparing me for this very hour. CLOTH sister Anita received the following Word in the same morning hours God gave me last Sunday’s Beware the Tares…

I am calling the men of this nation to rise up in prayer and fasting and to seek the Lord for your position of leadership in your family and church. It is not too late. It is never too late to love me and lead where I have called you. It is time to unstop your ears and take the blinders off your eyes. It is time to step up to the plate and hit a home run for the kingdom! ~ (Anita’s full Word in comment section of the last Tune-up)

I had lunch yesterday with a wonderful brother in Christ who lives God’s calling, but my heart broke when he raved about all the men’s Bible studies he attends with many of the men I know. They are the very see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil brethren He showed me in the last Tune-up. The very same who God is calling out through sister Anita. Blind, deaf, and dumb to God’s many messengers, including Eric Metaxas, Megan Basham, Donica Hudson, Trevor Loudon, Artur Palowsky, Matt Trewhella, Tricia Lindsay, Earl Wallace, Austin Kreutz, they have cemented themselves into the religious system of our day. Please pray for their awakening…

If we can stand before God apart from Jesus Christ, we have proved that Calvary is not needed. As soon as Jesus Christ comes in, He produces havoc because the whole world system is arrayed against His redemption. It was the world system of His day, and particularly the religious system, that killed the Son of God. ~ Oswald Chambers, Our Devotion as Disciples

Find a place where you can sit quietly alone for just a minute…and listen. Can you hear it? The sound of children crying out from Hell on this earth for honorable men. When He returns, as much as I love my Bible, the next to last place I want Him to find me is in a men’s Bible study while they are all out there! Maybe YOU can help rescue the next Lucy.
