The new era in America kicked off Thursday with a circus of indicators for 2019. At a celebration of the new Democratic-controlled House of Representatives held by the socialist group Moveon.org, the newly elected Islamist Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) told the crowd "We're gonna impeach the mother------." Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) will champion a "Green New Deal" which calls for a socialist committee to dictate climate change taxes to fund reducing greenhouse gasses AND universal income, wealth redistribution, free education and universal health care. Brad Sherman (D-CA) reintroduced his impeachment bill, charging President Trump with obstruction of justice. 
 
Expect the bizarre in 2019. CNN already carried a segment on how a CNN reporter bought House Speaker Nancy Pelosi  (D-CA) her favorite ice cream in Baltimore. Expect the civil war against traditional values to continue and escalate in 2019. The shrillness of Tlab and Ocasio-Cortez will get worse as they are emboldened. Expect the news media to become even more deceptive in 2019. AP already reported emphatically that "Polls show a majority of Americans oppose the border wall, although Republicans strongly support it." Actually, depending on the poll, Americans are mixed on the wall-some polls say 51% support it, others say 56% don't. Making a blanket statement that Americans oppose the wall, but Republicans support it is a politically-motivated statement aimed to deceive.
 
New House Financial Services Committee Chairman Maxine Waters (D-CA) told supporters,  "Those who say I'm going to spend all my time trying to get subpoenas and trying to do investigations, and I'm not going to do that. I'm just going to spend some of my time." Pelosi told the New York Times that the Constitution gives her equal power to President Trump. In reality, the Constitution places the Speaker of the House third in line of secession from the President, after the Vice President. She reiterated in her inaugural speech that the Constitution makes the Legislative branch co-equal to the Executive and Judicial branches. Fact is, she only leads one of the two houses of the Legislative branch. She is not Constitutionally co-equal to the President, but to a lawless generation, what do the facts matter?
 
This is the kind of idiocy that will be posed as not only fact, but as mainstream America. It's so far beyond common sense that one has to suspend innate disbelief to grasp that these people are serious. They are fomenting revolution in this nation, twisting the meaning of laws, morals, and the Constitution, reshaping America into a socialist ideal. What would have been rejected in 1950's-era cold war communism, is accepted and amplified by the media as normal today. To me, this is an antichrist spirit-not the antichrist, but a type and shadow, as described in Daniel 7:25, " And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws." Is this not what these people do? Don't be worn out by them. Stand on what you know is right and speak it when appropriate.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

Caring for those even the Church ignores: 
The Disabled in Ghana

By Pastor William Agbeti

[ NOTE: In addition to our ongoing clean water, feeding, and clothing efforts when you support The Daily Jot, you are helping wipe tears off the faces of suffering mothers and fathers seeking rehabilitation of their disabled children]
UN figures put persons living with disabilities in the world at 20% of the global population. 80% of this number can be found in developing countries. In Ghana alone, there are some 3 million persons living with various forms of disabilities. 
Our Ghana ministry serves where others will not.This two-day residential program for children with disabilities provide food, clothing and recreation



Their plight is demoralizing. Many in the Ghanaian society consider them taboos. Scores of local churches have not opened their doors to them. Several families neglect their disabled children, to fend for themselves. Sadly, some communities go to the extreme to put a newly born disabled child into a mortar and use a pestle to pound it to death, with the belief that their souls will not return to the communities again. In the main, the disabled are ostracized from the society. Only a handful of homes, families and communities treat them with a modicum of respect and acceptance. Read the rest of the story by clicking here
