A nation is made up of families and will only be righteous when we have righteous families. If fathers and mothers do not keep God's truths alive in their families, the nation gradually loses the truth and slowly succumbs to deception. And when God's truth departs from the nation, darkness, depravity, and destruction begin. Where do you think we are in our nation today?

Isaiah 59:14, 15 (NLT): "Our courts oppose the righteous, and justice is nowhere to be found. Truth stumbles in the streets, and honesty has been outlawed. Yes, truth is gone, and anyone who renounces evil is attacked."

But we never give up hope. God will revive and restore us as we turn back to him. It starts with me. With my family. With your family. And as each family begins to seek after God's truth in His Word, impart it daily to their families, and seek to live it out, we can restore righteousness in the nation.

All it takes is godly families who will uncompromisingly hold on to the truth.

Will you and your family begin the restoration?

It’s time for us to lift up our banners. For too long we have allowed our banners of truth to drag in the dust. We have been silent while the Deceiver has used his operatives to brandish his deception across our nation—

• In the media (we are bombarded with more fake news than ever in the history of the nation).

• In our education system (our college students are brainwashed with extreme socialism and alternative lifestyles).

• And even in the church (where now even Christian couples often limit their families to two children and God’s mighty home army have left their post in droves).

We’ve got to live the truth. Speak the truth. And wave the banner of truth. This is the picture God paints of the bride of Christ in Solomon 6:10: “Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and TERRIBLE (AWESOME) AS AN ARMY WITH BANNERS?”

Psalm 20:5: “In the name of our God we will set up our banners.,”

Psalm 60:4 says (NET): “Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth.”

The NET translation says: “You have given your loyal followers a RALLYING FLAG, so that they might seek safety from the bow.”

Let’s rally to the truth, God’s word which is the banner of truth. Let’s not lower it to half mast, but wave it high. Speak it out at every opportunity. Write it to the world. You are on Facebook if you are reading this post. Don’t waste time on Facebook but use it to herald the banner of God’s truth.

No wonder Psalm 119:48 says: “My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.” We lift up our hands in awe of God’s Word, and we also lift it up for the world to know.

We are never ashamed of the banner of God’s truth.

Therefore, his brothers, Aaron and Hur, came and stood beside him and held up his hands. While they continued to hold up his hands they won the victory over the Amalekites.

We have “Amalekites,” haters of God and all that is pro-life, pro-constitutional, and righteous in our land. When Trump came to the presidency, I felt such a burden to raise my as we pray for him each day. I feel like Aaron and Hur who held up the hands of Moses. It’s only as we pray for our president that we can expect victory. We must hold up his hands. He cannot do it on his own. He is a mere man. It’s not my might, nor by power, but by the Spirit of God (Zechariah 4:6).

Can you just imagine what could happen in our nation if every God-fearing family prayed for President Trump and our nation every day? We would see mighty victories. We would see the down fall of the “Amalekites.” These great miracles can only happen by prayer.

So, why don’t we pray? Don’t we want God to move? Don’t we want righteousness exalted in this nation? Don’t’ we want our college students to be saved from the deception of extreme socialism and turned back to the truth and the original intention for our nation? Don’t we want a great revival of people turning back to God?

Let’s encourage one another in this greatest of all ministries.

Be encouraged.

P.S. In our home, we have nine different PRAYER BOXES We use our Family Prayer Box each time and choose one other box such as our Israel Prayer Box, Persecuted Christian Prayer Box, Nation Changing Prayer Box, Salvation and Restoration Prayer Box, etc. We find these a great help in prayer.

Also, I have prepared a list of prayers that David prayed against his enemies. These are biblical prayers that you can pray against the enemies of this nation and the enemies of Donald Trump as they seek to make traps for him. If you are interested, email me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and I’ll be happy to send them to you.

God wants us to be a LIFTING UP and an UPLIFTING people, in our daily walk and in our homes. Yesterday we talked about lifting our eyes off our problems and lifting them up to Jesus.

Let’s look at more ways today:

GOD WANTS US TO LIFT UP OUR SOULS
Our souls are our inner being—our breath, souls, spirits, and minds—everything within us.

David said these words with enemies coming after him: “Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul” (Psalm 25:1). He confesses these words again in Psalm 86:4 and 143:8, 9. Do you daily lift your soul to the Lord? And continually throughout the day?

What about family times? Do you encourage your children to lift their souls to God as you pray together as a family each morning and evening?

God wants us to lift up our heads too. He reminds us that He is “the LIFTER UP OF MY HEAD” (Psalm 3:3). He wants us to also “look up and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth night” (Luke 21:28).

GOD WANTS US TO LIFT UP OUR HANDS

WHEN PRAISING AND WORSHIPPING GOD
1 Kings 8:22: “And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven: And he said, LORD God, of Israel, there is no God like thee, in heaven above, or on earth beneath . . .” (2 Chronicles 6:12).

Psalm 63:4: “Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.”

Encourage your children, while they are young, to raise their hands as they worship God. Children are not inhibited as adults and it’s the best time to get them into the habit . It should be a habit of their lives and something they should never be embarrassed about.

WHEN PRAYING, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE HAVE GREAT NEED OF GOD
Psalm 88:9: “Mine eye mourned by reason of affliction: LORD, I have called daily upon thee, I have stretched out my hands unto thee.”

Psalm 143:6: “I stretched forth my hands unto thee: my soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land.” Read also Psalm 28:1-3 and 86:1-4.

Lamentations 2:19: “Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street,”

Lamentations 3:41: “Let us lift up our heart WITH OUR HANDS unto God in the heavens.”

It’s not enough to pray with our heart. God wants us to lift up our hands too. I mostly lift up my hands in prayer. When I lift up my hands I show to God that my heart is stretched out toward Him. I find that I pray far more effectually with my heart and soul when I reach forth my hands to God. Bodily actions affect our inner being. Try it.

1 Timothy 2;8: “I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.”

WHEN BLESSING OTHERS
Leviticus 9:22: “And Aaron lifted up his hand toward the people and blessed them.”
“
1 Kings 8:54: “And it was so, that when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication unto the LORD, he arose from before the altar of the LORD from kneeling of his knees with his hands spread up to heaven. And he stood, and blessed all the congregation of Israel with a loud voice, saying . . .” Read also 2 Samuel 6:7-20.

Ezra 8:6: “And Ezra blessed the LORD, the great God. And ALL THE PEOPLE answered, Amen, Amen, with lifting up their hands . . .”

Luke 24:50: “And Jesus led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.”

And don’t you love this Scripture in Mark 10:16: “And Jesus took them (the little children) up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.” The TPT translation says “Then he embraced (caressed) each child, and laying his hands on them, he lovingly blessed each one.” Read also Luke 18:15, 16.

Of course, we encourage and bless our children. But it is also important to place our hands upon them and bless them. God wants our hands to be involved in blessing.

More tomorrow.

Dear ladies, where are your eyes today? Your physical eyes and the eyes of your heart? Are you looking at all you must accomplish today? Are you looking at your problems and dwelling on them?

Can I encourage you to change the direction of your eyes? When you look down, when you look at your problems, and you look at the mess around you, life seems overwhelming. But this is not the right place for your eyes. Lift your eyes, dear mother. Look up to Jesus. It’s amazing what happens when you look to Him. Your circumstances may not change, but your attitude changes. Instead of living under your problems you will live above them!

During scorning and contempt from people, the Psalmist confessed: “Unto thee lift I up mine eyes” (Psalm 123:1). He didn’t get into depression because everyone was against him. He found his victory in putting His eyes upon the Lord.

I think of the tragedy in David’s life when he and his army came back from battle to find their city of Ziklag burned to the ground. And worse—all their wives and children taken captive! The people wept until they had no more power to weep. They wanted to stone David they were so grieved. David was at his wit’s end, but then he “encouraged himself in the LORD his God” (1 Samuel 30:6).

Before this, David didn’t know what to do. But when he lifted his eyes to the Lord instead of the devastation around him, God showed him what to do. He gave him a plan and with God’s help they were able to rescue every wife and every child.

When your eyes are fixed on your problem you can’t even think straight, let alone know what to do. But when you lift your eyes to the Lord, trust Him, and rest in Him, He can then reveal to you His plan. And He will give you His peace.

Don’t you love 2 Corinthians 4:16-18? “For which because we faint not; but though our outward man perishes, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a FAR MORE EXCEEDING AND ETERNAL WEIGHT OF GLORY: while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.” Do you notice God gives five adjectives to describe the glory that He works in us as we go through our difficulties?

Hebrews 12:2: “LOOKING UNTO JESUS the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the same, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Psalm 34:5: “They looked unto him, and were lightened, and their faces were not ashamed.”

Be encouraged today,

Nancy Campbell

Read these Scriptures to be encouraged today: Palm 121:1; Proverbs 3:5, 6; Isaiah 40:26, 29-31; Luke 21:28; Philippians 3:14; and Hebrews 12:1, 2.

Blessings come when we open our eyes to the Lord:
The Spirit of God came upon Balaam when he lifted his eyes (Numbers 24:2).
God revealed visions to Daniel when he lifted his eyes (Daniel 8:3 and 10:5).
When Elisha asked God to open the eyes of his servant, he saw the mountain full of horses and chariots of fire protecting them (2 Kings 6:17).

It’s easier to give up your contest with God. It takes too much energy. It is much easier to yield to His will and trust Him in whatever you are going through. Surrender. Lie on His breast and let Him quiet your spirit just as a babe is quieted at his mother's breast.

Although you cannot see it, God is working everything out for good. And no matter what you have suffered, God is able to heal your broken heart. He is the great Healer and Restorer.

You may even be struggling at accepting motherhood. You keep feeling pulled to other things outside your home. Trust God, dear mother. You are in the perfect will of God as you mother and nurture the precious children God has given to you. Don’t resist it. Embrace it with all your heart.

I love the words of Hannah Hurnard:
In acceptance lieth peace,
O my heart be still;
Let thy restless worries cease
And accept His will.
Though this test be not thy choice,
It is His—therefore rejoice.
He waits for you to come and rest in His love.

You too are in a great building program—the biggest building project of the nation, the building and strengthening of your family! Building takes work. It doesn't just happen. You constantly face new challenges and difficulties. But dear mother, please be encouraged. God is with you! In fact, the Lord of hosts is with you, the God of the armies of heaven who fights on your behalf.

He encourages you today. "Rise up, be strong, and work!"

"Ouch! Do I have to work?" Yes, God doesn't give you His strength to sit on the couch and look at the mess around you. He doesn't give you His strength to sit and watch TV. He gives you His divine strength to enable you to work and to accomplish this great task of mothering and managing your home that He has given you.

When your strength runs out, He gives you His strength.

You can do it this task with His strength, because He is with you.

Have a wonderful day,

Nancy Campbell

The wicks speak of our humanity. As we gather each morning and evening for Family Devotions, to come into God's presence as a family, He reveals to us the things that grieve His Holy Spirit and that we need to trim off our lives--the dead, burnt works of the flesh that smoke everyone out in the home! But trimmed wicks are not enough. We have to be filled again with the Holy Spirit, which is represented by the holy anointing oil.

The lampstand was made of pure beaten gold, speaking of the divinity of Christ. We have no light of ourselves. We have no righteousness of our own. It is only His holiness and His light shining through us that gives hope to the lost, light to the darkened and deceived, and comfort of to the troubled and broken-hearted.

Can we be golden lampstand families in this dark world? Let’s commit ourselves to attending to our lampstands every morning and evening.

And did you know? It is the same word the Bible uses about childbearing. 1 Timothy 2:15 says that women "will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, and with self-control."

Many women do not want to heed to this truth and consequently miss out on the blessings. As we embrace childbearing, for which God created us, we are saved physically, emotionally, and spiritually--and we are saved from deception.

To embrace childbearing is not a negative to you as a woman. It is your glory. And God promises you will be saved, delivered, protected, healed, and preserved. I love the word "preserved," don't you? And you will be made whole.

Why do we think our way is better than God’s way?

Love from Nancy Campbell

This is why God is so emphatic about training our children to obey. It is not only for their benefit; they will live a happier life and ultimately a longer life. It is not only for our benefit; we will also live happier and more restful lives. But it is for God. He wants children who will obey Him. We train our children to obey us so obedience becomes a habit of their lives and they will be ready to obey God when they hear His voice speaking to them.

I have always been challenged by the words from Surveying the Evidence, where the authors state: “If atheism is not normal, why do certain people become unbelievers? First of all, it is well known that the seeds of atheism can be planted early in life. One of the most dangerous contributions a parent can make toward the spiritual delinquency of his child is a failure to instill within him a wholesome respect for authority. If the parent neglects to set the proper example as an authority figure, or refuses to exercise discipline with love, he might well be rejected as an authority-figure by his child, and thus, by transference, the child ultimately may come to disdain all authority, including the Supreme Authority, God.”

The greatest aim of parenting is preparing our children to have the right attitude to God—to love Him with their whole heart, soul, mind, and strength; but also to fear Him, honor Him, and obey Him. If they do not have the right attitude to their parents, they won't know how to relate to God.

May God help us to raise our children for Him!

This story reveals a spiritual principle. Jael did not give the enemy a foothold in her home. She dealt him a death blow. This is the same spirit God wants us to have. The enemy of our souls, and the souls of our children, lurks around trying to gain a foothold in our home.

We must be on the watch. And when he makes an appearance we do not sit idly by. We will not be tolerant. We take action. Pray. Intercede. Speak out the Scriptures. Lift up the name of Jesus. Plead the blood of Jesus. Deal him a death blow. He’s not taking my children on my watch!

Jael didn't even have to go out to war. She won the final victory for the nation of Israel right in her home. As a mother, you are also a warrior for God in your home. Don't give the devil who comes "to steal, kill, and destroy" one inch of comfort in your home. In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, throw him out.

Rise up in the powerful name of Jesus and be a devil-defeating mother.

God’s blessing to your home today,

Nancy Campbell

Instead, Arden was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. That began a long, hard battle for him. As a family we stood with him in prayer and faith. I remember in the summer of 2016, that we came together for three months every night to pray for him—all the family, even down to the babies. Often there would be over 30 of us. The children and young people (Arden’s cousins) poured our their hearts in prayer every night.

I printed out healing promises in big print and pinned them all around our big social room where we prayed. We had to stand on these promises because everything we beheld was the opposite! It was a fight of faith. We dared not look at what we saw, but what God’s Word says.

We feel awed and humbled at the grace of God and that we can now, after two years and eight months, tell you that he is clear! He is healed! Thank You, Father, for your faithfulness.

Thank you, too, for each of you who prayed and cried out for Arden, especially in his darkest time of fighting for life. Thank you for your love and your faithfulness to join us in prayer. Thank you for your prevailing prayers. Prayer is never wasted. It constantly goes up before the Lord as incense (Revelation 5:8 and 8:3-5). We are so grateful to you.

We give God all the glory.

Why are those who are gripped by the demonic forces of death and deception making their voice heard
so loudly? Because they are militant!

Currently, the following organizations are funding and organizing RISE UP FOR ROE with meetings throughout the country. They are Planned Parenthood Action Fund, NARAL Pro Choice America, and Demand Justice Initiative. They are encouraging their supporters across the land to become “maximum hysterical” as they advocate the murdering of babies in the womb and do everything in their power to stop the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Another speaker stated: “We’re powerful as hell and we’re mad!”

Chelsea Clinton stated that abortion adds trillions of dollars to the nation’s economy. What deception. On an average, people spend $60,000 a year! Just think of the 60 million who have been murdered since ROE V. WADE. Just think of the trillions these people would have added to the nation’s economy! What new business? What new inventions? What new feats? Let alone the saving of 60 million precious lives!

They are whipping up people to vote against every pro-life senator or governor. They are encouraging them to come out in their droves to vote in the mid-term elections. They are the devil’s advocates as they rally to murder life in the womb.

Let’s take up our weapons of prayer (Psalm 149:6-9) and let’s be a voice for God. Let’s call our senators. Let’s speak to people. Let’s write on Facebook or whatever. And make sure we vote in the mid-term elections. The vote determines what happens.

“Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? Or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?” (Psalm 94:16).

Be encouraged.

A nation is only as strong as its marriages and families. The most powerful thing we can do is keep our marriages strong and build strong, godly families. As mothers we determine the future of our nation for it is our children who will direct the course of the nation in the coming years.

Because God is the originator of marriage and family, the devil hates it! He is at war against it. War against lasting marriage. War against the womb (Genesis 3:15). War against the family. And the battle is intensifying. The statists, leftists, progressives, and the socialists are shouting and yelling their hate at God’s original mandate.

It’s time for God’s people to arise. It’s time for us mothers to arise. It’s time to rise from our silence and speak the truth. If we do not proclaim the truth now, we will lose what we have. Jesus says in Revelation 3:11: “I am coming soon. HOLD FAST WHAT YOU HAVE, so that no one may seize your crown.”

Do not be intimidated by your antagonists. Do not be silenced by the deceivers. Never be ashamed of God’s Word and His truth.

When God exhorts us to “tell of His wondrous works,” to “shew forth” his marvelous works,” to “declare” his glory among the heathen,” it is the word “caphar.” This word not only means to speak and show forth, but to WRITE. This is the word that is also used for “scribe” in the Bible.

Dear wives and mothers, don’t use your Facebook for the mundane. Use it to proclaim God’s truth. To write it. Not only to your Christian friends, but the Bible says, “to the heathen.” If you can’t think what to write yourself, share with all your friends the posts I write to you each day. Scroll down this Facebook and check some posts that are powerful to you and share them with your friends too.

IT’S TIME TO LIFT UP THE BANNER! WAVE THE FLAG OF GOD’S TRUTH FOR BIBLICAL MARRIAGE AND FAMILY. TIME TO PUT AWAY ALL FEARS AND FEAR GOD ONLY.

IT’S TIME TO BE A VOICE OR OUR VOICE FOR TRUTH WILL SOON BE TAKEN AWAY!

What does it mean to shepherd? Two massive tasks—to feed and to keep.

The word “feed” is “raah” and means “to feed, pasture, rule, and care for our flock, but it also means to associate with as a friend.” I was talking to a mother of five teens the other day and she said with a big smile, “My teens are my best friends.”

The word “keep” is “shamar” and means “to guard, keep safe, watch over and protect.” Once again, we are always near our flock. We can’t watch over them if we are not with them. And, of course, we not only protect their physical lives, but their souls and spirits.

Your mothering role is a powerful and fulltime career. Embrace it and enjoy it today.

2. Some things you need to think about. All children need to be up and dressed (and if old enough), beds made by breakfast time. This enables you to be ready to have Family Devotions together after breakfast. It will never happen if you don’t organize it to happen!

Appoint duties for each member of the family to clean up the kitchen and get laundry started for the day. All children need to be involved from the youngest to the oldest. Make sure everything is cleaned up before you start homeschooling. This is just to get you started. You can think about the rest of your day. But make sure you also think about how you will prepare your evening meal and what time you will get into the kitchen to get it going.

3. Share the plan with your husband and ask him for any changes or better ideas. Pray over it together.

4. Gather the family together at a suitable time. Share with the family that you can't keep going the way you are. A family must run smoothly and so you have got a great plan to make it happen and you are all going to be involved. Then share the plan with the family and tell them their appointed tasks. You can also print it and pin it up where all can see it.

5. Be excited about it and let the children catch the vision. When you start your tasks in the morning, aim for a time to have them finished. No dawdling allowed! Teach your children to work hard and fast. You are training them for the future! You are training them to be successful employees, or better still, employers! You are training them how to run their home when they get married. They must know how to work hard, fast, and joyfully!

If tasks are done by a certain time, put a star on the fridge. At the end of the week, if there are a certain number of stars, plan a celebration. Go out for ice-cream. Have a special meal, or purchase a little gift for each of the children who played their part. Incentive is great. There is nothing wrong with giving incentives.

Blessings to you today,

Nancy Campbell

We cannot run our homeland unless it is based on obedience. Titus 2:5 commands us wives to be obedient to our husband. We set the example for our children who are to be obedient to us. When obedience is established in the home, the home runs smoothly.

When a wife resists her husband, there is no peace. When children are not trained to obey, there is chaos! No mother can enjoy mothering disobedient children. No wonder many mothers don't like mothering. They have children who are out of control.

Establish obedience in your home and the blessing of God will come down.
