God is a God of justice. “Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne,” the psalmist writes in Psalm 89:14. God orders the world with justice and it is the way He wants our homes and nations to be ordered.
Have you found it incredible to believe the corruption that took place in our recent election? It is truly unbelievable, isn’t it? I am sure you have read hundreds of stories of the corruptions by all different ways and means, including the planned glitches in the Dominion voting machines. We could list pages of findings, but just a couple to remind us of what we are facing.
The first question “The Westminster Shorter Catechism” asks is:” What is the chief end of man?”
Do you remember when Joseph and Mary and the family traveled to Jerusalem for the Passover feast? Jesus was only 12 years old at the time. At the end of the first day of their homeward journey, they could not find Jesus They thought he was with friends and family, but when they couldn’t find him, they realized he was missing. They had to return to Jerusalem and after three agonizing days of searching they found him.
You are accomplishing great things in your home.
Dear mother in the home,
Sometimes you wonder what you are accomplishing as you are daily in the home with all your little ones. You think of all the things you could be doing outside the home. But I want to encourage you today that you are in the PERFECT WILL OF GOD right where you are.
When God gives you a little baby and gradually adds to your family He doesn’t give you your children to give to someone else to raise. He gives them to YOU! You are in God’s perfect will. He created you for this great career. Embrace it and live in the joy and the fullness of it today.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you and your precious family today. May you be filled with thankfulness, today, and every day of the year.
The following are just a few of the things for which I am thankful.
T I thank God for TEACHING me His ways.
H I thank God for giving me my HUSBAND. Marriage becomes more and more beautiful with time.
A I thank God for ANOINTING me to be a mother. Is there any greater blessing, apart from our salvation, than to enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren?
N I thank God for creating me to be a NURTURER and NOURISHER to my family and to others.
K I thank God for His KINDNESS to me.
F I thank God for my FAMILY and His daily FAITHFULNESS to me.
U I thank God for giving me UNDERSTANDING of His truth. My greatest delight is to receive revelation of God’s truth from His living Word.
L I am thankful for LIFE. I thank God for LOVING me enough to die for me and shed His precious blood for my sins. He not only redeemed me but dwells within me to give ABUNDANT LIFE. I don’t like to get a day go by without thanking Him for His great and unspeakable and eternal salvation.
Thankfulness should fill our hearts every day, but today is a special day to collectively give thanks to God for all His goodness. We will do this today as we give thanks to God and have our toasts to people for whom we are thankful.
Have a wonderful day,
Nancy Campbell
A thankful attitude changes our world. It changes our attitude toward our husbands. It changes our way of thinking toward our children. It changes how we view our homes. It determines whether we live in enjoyment or misery. It truly is a world-changer.
Here is a little comment from Charles Spurgeon on a little Scripture with only three words:
~ Nancy
“Be ye thankful” (Colossians 3:15).
“When you are grumbling at your plain food, put this as a sandwich between your bread and butter, “Be thankful.”
When you are complaining of the east wind, just try if you cannot spell this little sentence, “Be thankful.”
When you are murmuring about those sharp pains and that long sickness, this is the kind of tune for the little bird to whistle at your window, “Be thankful.”
We have all much for which we should be thankful, however sad we may think our lot to be. Look on the bright side, rejoice in God: “Be thankful.”
~ Charles Spurgeon
“The darker the night, the brighter the light.” The darker it gets and the more deception takes over people’s minds, the more we must shine. Isaiah 60:1-3: “Arise, shine: for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee . . .” The greatest way we shine for Jesus is through our unveiled faces, revealing His image to all we meet. #shineforjesus #shine #shineyourlight #shinebrightly #shineinthedarkness #openface #unveiledface #unveiledfaces #unmasked #aboverubies
Dear ladies, I find it so hard to believe what has happened to our nation? I can’t believe how nearly every one has given in to masks and whatever some “authority” has mandated, even though it is not a written law, and is against the Constitution, and against the way our Creator intended us to live!
I think of the Scripture in Nehemiah 9:36, 37 and can hardly believe that we are experiencing it in our free nation: “Behold, we are servants this day, and for the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold we are servants in it: . . . also they have DOMINION OVER OUR BODIES . . . at their pleasure, and we are in great distress.”
We no longer have dominion over our own bodies! We are not even allowed to freely breathe the fresh air which God gives liberally for every person! And we know that it has nothing to do with the current virus which has 99.9 percent recovery rate. Oh yes, there are loads of positive tests, and yet can they be trusted? Elon Musk took four tests in one day, two were positive and two were negative!
Of course, it’s good practice for the coming vaccine. There will be many who will want to take it, but there are thousands who have researched and will never submit their bodies or the bodies of their children to the negative impact of vaccines.
But if we can’t resist the mark, how will we resist the vaccine?
And now we have leftist state governors locking down their states for Thanksgiving. Washington state is banning all indoor social gatherings, including Thanksgiving. Families are not allowed to invite any visitors! Oh yes, they can have a party with only five or less people outside if they social distance! I beg your pardon! This is not life. This is not even common sense.
Don’t these people believe people have brains! Of course if someone is sick, they will not go out among others. That’s what people have always done. But to put these restrictions on healthy people is tyranny. It is taking dominion over our private family lives.
Even the mayor of Nashville, in our state of Tennessee, suggests celebrating Thanksgiving with Video Chats! This is not America. Do we hand over our lives and our families to “authorities” who do not revere our constitution?
Dr. Scot Atlas, a leading adviser for the Coronavirus Task Force, responded to the restrictions in Michigan where Whitmer announced a new lockdown for at least for three weeks that includes Thanksgiving.
He states: “The only way this stops is if people rise up. You get what you accept.”
Will you and your family give in to tyranny or will you resist?
Daniel 11:32 (NLT): “But the people who know their God will be strong and will resist.”

We sang this powerful hymn by MARTIN LUTHER at our Family Devotions this morning. The words are so powerful, aren't they? Here are all the words for you.
A mighty fortress is our God,
A bulwark never failing.
Our helper He amid the flood
Of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
Doth seek to work us woe.
His craft and power are great,
And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
Did we in our own strength confide,
Our striving would be losing,
Were not the right man on our side,
The man of God's own choosing.
Dost ask who that may be?
Christ Jesus, it is He.
Lord Sabaoth, His name,
From age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
And though this world, with devils filled,
Should threaten to undo us,
We will not fear, for God hath willed
His truth to triumph through us.
The Prince of Darkness grim,
We tremble not for him.
His rage we can endure,
For lo, his doom is sure.
One little word shall fell him.
That word above all earthly powers
Not thanks to them, abideth.
The Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through him who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go,
This mortal life also.
The body they may kill,
God's truth abideth still.
His kingdom is forever.
Blessings to you today from Nancy Campbell
Another move that is a “must see.” This is more of a documentary, filled with powerful information from many well-known people. It reveals what the world will look like when Trump is no longer president. You better watch before it is too late. A must watch for every person in this nation.
Go Online to either purchase the DVD or stream Online.
~ Nancy
I’d like to recommend this DVD. It was meant to the theaters but because of the spamdemic never got there. We watched this the other night. It is very POWERFUL, revealing the reason why Trump is so hated. He is the only one who is prepared to stand up against globalism and the new world order which will take us into darkness and communism. No wonder Biden stated in the presidential debate that we are going into “a dark winter.” That’s where he wants to take us.
This movie should not be missed. However, it is not for children, not even young people without parental supervision. There is one part in the film which I detest where Dinesh exposes things that Obama did before becoming president that were never exposed to the media (and yet the fake media have brandished lies about Trump night and day since he became president). The things that were exposed were so revolting that I wouldn’t want any young person to watch or hear.
If you want to know what you are getting into if Biden is elected president, you better watch this movie.
Go Online to either purchase the DVD or stream Online.

In the midst of deception and persecution (which is the context of this Scripture), the people who know God will be strong, rise up, and take action.
The NCV says they will be “strong and fight back.” The Knox translation says they “shall go all the more boldly to work.”
In this time of deception and fraud regarding out election, it is not a time to sit back. Take action in whatever way the Lord impresses upon your heart. Call your Senators, Congressmen, and governors to make sure votes are counted legally. Stand strongly for truth. And most of all pray. Prayer is our most powerful weapon.
~ Nancy Campbell
Let’s keep earnestly praying for all voting fraud and hidden agendas to be exposed and for a true and righteous count for the final results for this election. We cannot give up interceding. The battle is not over! #keeppraying #keepinterceeding #dontgiveup #gatheryourfamilytopray #aboverubies

My daughter, Shalom, the fulfillment of God’s promise to me, was born on September 8th, 2017. We all waited expectantly for this moment when we would take our little princess home and our loving family of four would turn to five. Instead, we had to wait at the hospital for exactly 115 days before we could finally reunite as a family.
When Shalom opened her beautiful mouth with a loud cry, we noticed the roof of her mouth had an unfamiliar opening. Her chin looked small, her little jaw was siting further back than normal, and no one knew her tongue was a little tiny too. She was diagnosed with Pierre Robin Sequence and had a cleft palate.
Shalom came into the world struggling to breathe. Considering the complications, she was transported to one of the largest children’s hospital in Fort Worth, Texas. They handed her over to the best team of doctors and various specialists who also discovered Shalom was born with two holes in her heart which eventually filled on their own.
After almost two months at the hospital, one fine Friday, we had a decision-making meeting. We were advised by the doctors and surgeons about a surgical intervention for Shalom. The procedure was called the jaw distractors and involved enlarging her jaw in the hope that it would help with her breathing.
We were deeply troubled and had no peace about the surgery. We called out to God to save our daughter and pleaded to bypass the jaw surgery as the surgery sounded quite invasive and involved breaking her jaw. I reminded God of the Scripture in John 19:36 where none of Jesus’ bones were broken and hence to protect Sholom’s jawbone too.
The next Monday, Shalom developed a viral flu (a blessing in disguise). This common cold infection prohibited the surgeon from touching Shalom for any surgery till she was four weeks’ virus free. It was such a relief as it gave us time to pray and seek God’s face for His healing touch upon Shalom. We claimed the Scripture where the touch of Jesus’ hand would heal every one (Luke 4:40).
Miraculously, God Himself gave growth to Shalom’s chin and after two months of laying her alternatively either on her right or left side, she could easily lie on her back without dropping her oxygen level. Her tongue grew a little and didn’t fall back anymore.
The surgeon came back saying that she didn’t need the jaw distractors as her breathing had improved on its own. We rejoiced in our hearts to see the touch of the Master. Jesus, the Miracle-Worker, was constantly interceding and mediating on behalf of Shalom.
God was not just looking after Shalom, but He supernaturally provided an army of prayer warriors from various groups and churches to pray for Shalom’s healing. Various friends and pastors visited us at the hospital with words of hope and encouragement, making our journey easier. Twenty-four-hour prayer chains were held for Shalom and even different prayer lines continually made intercession for Shalom’s healing.
Our home church strongly stood by and we knew that God was carrying us in His very own hands. He spoke to us through His Word and guided us continually.
Almost four months at the hospital seemed like forever but I felt peace in my heart when I surrendered Shalom to the Lord and went about praying for other NICU mothers at the hospital. That made my journey a lot easier as I shifted my focus from my own problems, and it gave me a mission to share the love of God with the broken hearted.
As for Shalom, her battle was not over yet. The feeding was still an issue. She could not go home till she ate safely. Shalom was not fed orally for over six months of her life because of the possibility of aspiration. After a long wait, they put in a gastrostomy tube.
Then the day came when it seemed like our chains were broken. On December 31st, a cold, snowy day, Shalom was discharged from the hospital. God’s timing was strategic and on the New Year’s morning, Shalom opened her eyes in her own home in the presence of her most loving family. God proved His faithfulness to us.
After two months of being home with excessive trials and lot of prayers, Shalom started eating and drinking by mouth and never developed any of the chest or ear infections that were possible. The gastrostomy tube was taken out and she has been doing everything so beautifully. God amazed us with His goodness.
Our God is a God of miracles. We believe that because Jesus lives, so shall Shalom live an amazing and abundant life. In May 2020, they successfully operated on Shalom for her cleft palate repair.
We believe the God who created the heavens and the earth by His great and mighty power and infinite wisdom is the same God who has given such profound wisdom and knowledge to the most amazing surgeon, Dr. Eric Hubli, to do such artistic work with so much skill and expertise. God not only looked after us but also provided us with the best hands to perform Shalom’s surgery. We thank and appreciate Dr Hubli very much and give all glory to our great God.
Matthew 14:35, 36: “(They) brought unto him all that were diseased; and besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.”
