Be Anxious For Nothing by William Oldham

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7

What child of God doesn’t want their God-given gift of peace of mind? And yet, knowing that, many still experience anxious minds about most everything. We hear what the word of God says to do here; and so, we pray, petition, and give thanks, seeking a calm heart that comes from the peace of mind that only God can give.

But this evil, chaotic world we live in, is designed to rob you of that peace. Jesus called the devil a thief who, “Comes only to steal and kill and destroy…” John 10:10 If this brings to mind losing your worldly goods and your life, you’re missing the main truth. The devil wants to steal your peace of mind; your joy in the Lord; he wants to kill your love for your brethren; he wants to destroy your faith in God, and your relationship with Him. And it would appear he’s pretty successful at his work.

But we possess the sword of the Lord, and we’re going to wield it right here to help our brethren to, “Be anxious for nothing.” In addition to prayer and thanksgiving, I believe the body of Christ needs to grow in grace and the knowledge of our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. So, let’s take a look at some truths that should remove the anxieties we may have concerning the things going on in the world, or in our personal lives, such as health issues, financial issues and family problems.

–       The very first thing is this: The Lord is near, very near—Christ lives in you through His Holy Spirit; He is ever present with you in all of your difficulties, and He loves you!

–       The Lord will finish the work He began in you; He will complete it on the day He returns for us because He loves you!

–       The Lord is working in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure because He loves you!

–       We can do all things through Christ because He strengthens us to do it—He loves us!

–       The Lord is supplying and will supply all our need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus because He loves us!

–       Our citizenship is in heaven. We are eagerly awaiting Jesus’ return from there to transform these lowly bodies. Jesus is coming after us because He loves us!

–       “Cast all your care on Him because He loves you and cares for you” 1 Peter 5:8

How can I be anxious about nothing? Ponder on and embrace these truths. Wrap them around your waist and they will bring you a calm heart and peace of mind.

CBS Embroiled in ‘Huge Journalistic Scandal’ After Major Change to Kamala Harris’ ’60 Minutes’ Answer Is Spotted

From westernjournal.com

Every honest American knows that the establishment media lies on behalf of powerful people. Thus, when we point out instances of dishonesty, it often feels as if we do little more than multiply examples.

Sometimes, however, those examples prove so egregious that, no matter how familiar they seem, and no matter how exhausted the years of similar and repeated outrages have made us feel, their sheer brazenness still manages to shock us.

Tuesday on the social media platform X, an observant video editor named “MAZE” noticed that someone at CBS News appeared to have removed one of Vice President Kamala Harris’ most jaw-droppingly incoherent answers from her recent “60 Minutes” interview then replaced it with an altogether different answer — an apparent cut-and-paste editing job that one X user described as “a huge journalistic scandal.”The editing tactic — if deliberate — replaced Harris’ incoherent answer with a coherent one. See the clip below, which had more than 6.8 million views as of Wednesday morning.

 
Libs of TikTok, a prominent conservative account with more than 3.5 million followers on X, reposted MAZE’s clip, thereby amplifying the original video and generating another 2.7 million views on its own.

“BREAKING: 60 minutes just quietly *edited out* Kamala’s word salad answer on Israel. Unreal,” Libs of TikTok wrote in an accompanying post.


From there, the apparent act of deception garnered widespread attention and generated substantial outrage.

An X user named John G. West, in fact, called it “a huge journalistic scandal.”

“Did CBS do a second take of the question to help her? Did CBS take unaired footage from another question and splice it in? That’s unclear at this point,” West continued.“CBS needs to release the unedited and full version of the interview so people can see what actually took place and how they constructed the new answer. If the answer came from another part of the interview, someone should be fired,” he concluded. source
