We thank the Lord for the excellent reporting of the Albuquerque Journal. We have been subscribers since we moved here in 1995. At that time ABQ was a two newspaper city. Thank the Lord will still have the Journal. This report that is in today’s edition is a very important read on the increase in heroin and meth seizures at the border.
I pray that you read your local newspaper. It is educational and you need to know what is going on in your community. I still subscribe to the Cottonwood County Citizen in my hometown of Windom, Minnesota. They do such a great job back home of reporting the news. The Citizen is the best newspaper in America for the size of the community it serves! Find out here: Cottonwood County Citizen
Support your local newspaper please.
I was trained up as a newsman back in 1978 working for the Minnesota News Network. My Dad, Wally, wrote for the Citizen back in the 60’s. He is my role model.

Crime is so very high in Albuquerque, violent crime, the murder rate has soared in the Duke City this year. Cars are being stolen at a record rate.
A woman was found decapitated in a Four Hills neighborhood on Saturday in Albuquerque. Satan is roaming the streets of ABQ. This is a spiritual issue. We must address it that way. We must pray against Satan. Hearts must be changed for Jesus, this is a heart issue.
Caleb James of KOB TV reports that More than 27 cars are stolen every day in the metro area, according to Albuquerque Police and FBI data.
We have a friend, Franchesca, whose car has been stolen 3 times in the past 2 years in Albuquerque!!!
Read Caleb’s complete report here on one family searching for their car on Christmas, so very sad.
We continue to bathe Albuquerque in prayer. Satan be gone form this place!
Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.” Matthew 16:23
Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. Ephesians 6:11
The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayers of the righteous. Proverbs 15:29
This is not a political issue, it is an issue of hearts for JESUS!
From Adrian Rogers:
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels…” 2 Thessalonians 1:7
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Are you troubled today? Listen: “And you who are troubled rest with us.” That is, be at ease. Quit your worry. It is not over yet. There is an unfinished story. If you are troubled, rest with us.
You say, “Pastor, it’s so dark.” Yes, it’s gloriously dark, because the darkest hour of the night is just before the sunrise. Our hope is not in politics, our hope is not in sociology, our hope is not in science. The only sure hope for our world is the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Think about who is coming again. Underscore this: “when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed.” The Lord Jesus is who is coming again. We’re not looking for some event in history. We’re looking for Jesus Christ to be revealed. And when He’s revealed, He’s going to be revealed as the Lord Jesus. Today He is despised. He is rejected. He is mocked. But He is coming as the Lord Jesus to be glorified and admired.
ACTION POINT:
If you are unsaved, if you’re not one of His saints, His coming will strike stark terror in your heart. But if you’re saved, you’re going to say, “Oh glory to the Lamb. Isn’t He beautiful?” Say this aloud if you can say it and mean it: “Lord Jesus.” The Lord Jesus is coming.
ABQ is also the late-term abortion Capital. The City is in very sad shape. It breaks my heart. ABQ makes God weep.
