I try to stay out of politics. Always have.

My job is to shepherd God's people.

But after twenty years of watching the same pattern repeat, I decided...

I'd rather lose members of my congregation than lose my integrity.

Four things I warned my congregation about have already come true...

And every single one comes down to the SAME THING.

The people at the top always land safely. The rest of us absorb the damage.

Ezekiel 34 warned us about leaders who feed THEMSELVES...

While ABANDONING the people they're meant to protect.

I preached it for twenty years from that pulpit. And Lord knows I never wanted to be right.

But I was.

COVID hit and they locked the churches but let the liquor stores stay open.

Inflation hit and my people started choosing between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.

While the people who caused it got richer than they had EVER been.

They started fact-checking scripture and removing pastors from platforms for speaking God's word.

And now it comes out that government officials have been quietly stockpiling solar power banks. For their officials. For their families. For their bunkers.

Not saying a SINGLE word to the people who put them in office.

Here's why that should make God-fearing people angry.

Because when the power goes out...

Whether it's a storm, an attack, or a grid that's been falling apart for years...

It doesn't just take your lights.

My people, it takes EVERYTHING.

Your mama trying to reach you on a dead phone.

Your kids not knowing if you made it through the night.

No way to know which roads are open, where to find help, or if anyone is coming at all.

Just SILENCE. And not knowing.

That is what THEY are protecting themselves from. And they are leaving the rest of us to face ALONE.

But here's the thing.

The bunkers, the land, the supplies. Every one of those is MAN-MADE.

Bought with money you don't have.

Built behind walls you'll never see.

Controlled by permits, contracts, and connections that were never going to include me or you.

But there is one gift on this earth that no government has ever CONTROLLED...

No politician has ever TAXED...

And no power-hungry man has ever been able to keep for himself.

The SUN.

God put that in the sky Himself — long before there was a single power line, a single grid, a single bunker built by man.

The grid came after. Built by men. Run by committees. Funded by budgets that get cut.

And right now, due to worn out power lines, extreme weather, and the growing threat of war...

That man-made system is hanging by a THREAD.

When it goes down...

And they already know it will...

300 million Americans lose power INSTANTLY. No warning. No way out.

Your phone dies. You can't call your kids. You can't reach your mama. You have NO IDEA what is happening outside your own front door.

For months.

Most people assume they'll be able to figure it out when it happens. They WON'T.

Because when that grid goes down, EVERYTHING you depend on it goes with it.

EVERYTHING you thought you could lean on.

EVERYTHING man-made.

Gone.

What you need is something connected to the one power source nobody can ever take from you.

Which Is Why One Of Our Community Created The Rivanta® Emergency Power Bank

It is power that answers to GOD, not the grid.

You CAN'T control what happens in the world.

You CAN'T control foreign governmets.

You CAN'T control the power grid.

You CAN'T control when the next emergency might happen.

But you CAN control whether the lights go out and take everything with them...

Your family's voices, the news, the updates, the information that tells you where to go and who is coming...

Or whether you keep the ONE thing that connects you to all of it.

Your phone.

As long as your phone has power, you have a lifeline.To your family. To information. To the outside world.

Usually, your phone dies within hours when the grid goes down. And once it's dead, EVERYTHING goes with it.

I am worried about what's coming, and I do NOT want that for my community.

That's exactly why I tell every family in my congregation to get a Solar Power Bank.

I have no affiliation with this company. I do not make a dime on any sale.

But I know the people running it and I know they fear God. They are GOOD people.

It usually costs hundreds of dollars...

But after news came out that government officials were stockpiling it for themselves...

They've made this one available to everyday Americans for a FRACTION of what it normally costs.

As long as that sun God put in the sky is still there, it gives you INFINITE power. No grid. No government. No permission needed.

And I would rather have something I don't need than NEED something I did not grab in time.
