President Trump is the first sitting president in U.S. history to speak live at the March for Life in Washington D.C.
In the 47 years of the march’s history, none of the Republican presidents then in office have seen fit to grace its stage. An obvious decision was made to maintain a degree of separation from the pro-lifers.
Perhaps now, feckless Republican politicians will have the courage to stand up for innocent children and recognize the pro-life position isn’t one to shrink away from… that is… if they believe what they campaign on.
There were added that day about 3000 souls.
My name is Abraham Hamilton III and this is the Hamilton Minute.
The day of Pentecost concluded with 3000 converts being added to the initial body of 120 believers. Then that 3120 spent time together daily going to the temple and interacting in each other’s homes. They devoted themselves continually to the apostle’s teaching, fellowship, sharing meals together and praying together.
The 3120 that made up the early church came from Turkey, the middle east and Africa, and included Arabs and Romans. In addition to the geographic and ethnic diversity, they also spoke different languages. Yet they were made one family in Christ Jesus.
Scripture has the answer to the issues we face today.
“And Moses said, ‘I will turn aside to see this great sight, why the bush is not burned’” Exodus 3:3.
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
In the burning bush encounter Scripture records that it began as Moses kept Jethro’s flock Exodus 3:1.
“When the LORD saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, 'Moses, Moses!' And he said, 'Here I am'" Exodus 3:4.
Notice, God didn’t speak to Moses until He gave full attention to what God was trying to show him.
Diligent attention to daily duty is necessary. We must be careful, however, not to allow duty to become an idol. Are our hearts still sensitive to God? Can God still get our attention?
For just as the body is one and has many members and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For the body does not consist of one member but of many 1 Corinthians 12:12, 14 (ESV).

Look briefly at one of your fingers. You’ve just witnessed one of the greatest displays of God’s creative intent there is. No other person in all the world, even an identical twin, shares your fingerprint.
God specifically designed each of us to be unique. That means we shouldn’t try to carbon copy anyone else in the Christian faith.
If God made you an arm in His body or a kneecap, praise be to our glorious God for drawing us to become a part of His body.
How freeing it is to realize that we were never meant to copy anyone – but Jesus.

Sometimes there’s a delay between crying out to God in prayer and seeing those prayers answered.
It is imperative for us in those times that we don’t waver in our confidence in our God.
The next verse goes on to say, “For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.” Hebrews 10:36 (ESV).
You see, the delay between supplication and delivered answer is one of the ways God develops endurance in us.
He desires that the roots of our faith grow down deep, that we become trees planted by rivers of living water … steadfast, immovable, always abounding in His work. In this we grow beyond superficial Christianity.

Gay and lesbian activists, along with their bisexual allies, are about face hostile opposition.
Not from those pesky evangelicals, whom many expect. It will arise from amongst their own regressive ranks.
There is much conversation today in the activist community that challenges LGB orthodoxy and this challenge is coming from transgender activists.
They assert, if gender is on a spectrum, then homosexuality and bisexuality don’t really exist because they can only exist where sexuality is binary.
In transgenderism, lesbianism, gayness, and bisexuality are a ruse, because you can’t really be male or female.
The LGBs are getting trouble from the Ts.
“And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.” Revelation 21:14 (ESV).

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled the Trump administration can use about $4 billion in military funds to construct our southern border wall.
In its decision, the Court noted that the U.S. Supreme Court made a similar decision last year to allow the president to use military funds, highlighting the absurdity of the lower court ruling.
Last September, Defense Secretary Mark Esper authorized moving the military construction funds toward border wall construction.
Like it or not, the wall is coming!
“But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness.” 1 John 2:11(a) (ESV).

During his speech that signaled the end of recent military actions concerning Iran, President Trump said America is now,
The number one producer of oil and natural gas anywhere in the world. We are independent and we do not need Middle East oil.
America is now a net energy-exporting nation for the first time since 1953. Politicians and presidents of all stripes have yearned for “energy independence.”
Now we’ve achieved it. But, the talking snakes don’t want you to know it.
It’s become clear that some hate President Trump more than they love America.

Nick Sandmann has received a settlement from CNN after his $275 million libel lawsuit against them.
The settlement amount is undisclosed, but knowing his lawyers Nick’s nickname now is likely Nicky Rich.
Interestingly, during the suit, CNN initially filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that calling someone a ‘racist’ is not a provable fact and therefore does not rise to the level of libel.
They made this argument in court while CNN talking heads call President Trump and others racist as a statement of fact almost daily on their network.
The argument failed because now, CNN has paid, literally, for their lies.
“Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.” Colossians 2:6-7 (ESV).
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
The verses from Colossians I just quoted are immediately followed by:
See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.
The delusion and deception of humanistic philosophy require its prey to become bitter, entitled, and unthankful.
To remain impervious to deception, we must abound in thanksgiving to God.
Thanksgiving empowers us to reject the captivity of today’s grievance culture.

The “experts” and the talking snakes have been wrong about President Trump since 2016.
The so-called “experts” said the President’s trade war with China would destroy our economy.
“They” said moving our Embassy to Jerusalem would spark unrest.
“They” said moving troops in Syria would result in genocide.
“They said striking Soleimani would lead us to war.
There’s a pattern here, folks.
Regressive opposition to President Trump has nothing to do with principle. The globalist cabal despises anything resembling an America first agenda, but President Trump is doing exactly what the voters elected him to do.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi tweeted at 6:31 p.m. Monday night that she was “closely monitoring the situation following bombings targeting U.S. troops in Iraq.”
At 5:40 p.m., however, nearly an hour before Pelosi tweeted her public statement, a Politico reporter tweeted “In a meeting tonight Speaker Pelosi was handed a note telling her VP Pence was on the phone. (Pelosi said) ‘Tell him I’ll call him back.’ Two minutes later, she was handed a note about the air base bombing.”
No time for the Vice-President about our troops, but Pelosi had time for a restaurant grand opening in D.C. at 6:14 p.m.
Disgraceful!
Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
At the climax of the account when Jesus restored Peter’s personal relationship with him, and Peter’s call to ministry, He saw John following them.
Jesus had just predicted that Peter would give his life for the Gospel, when Peter said, “What about John, LORD?”
Jesus responded, “What does he have to do with your calling? You follow me.”
With those words, Jesus hit a consistent flaw of the human condition. We derive value and self-worth by comparing ourselves to other people.
Your ups, your downs, your failures, your victories were never meant to be compared to other people.
We have been called to serve an audience of One. The only approval you need is His.

MSNBC's Chris Hayes invited TX Congressman Al Green on to his program to defend himself against Republican accusations that Democrats "reverse engineered" impeachment by searching for a set of facts to fit an impeachment narrative.
Instead of refuting that accusation, Green confirmed its accuracy.
Congressman Green said, “Well, the genesis of impeachment, to be very candid with you, was when the president was running for office…”
Well, thank you Congressman Green for confirming what we already knew. This sham is nothing more than an effort to overturn the will of the American people.

207 members of Congress have signed an amicus brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to revisit its Roe v. Wade opinion.
The brief was filed in conjunction with Americans United for Life in a case pending before the Court challenging a Louisiana Law that requires a doctor to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles of the facility where an abortion is performed.
Justice Clarence Thomas has already gone on record indicating his willingness to revisit Roe. He’s said “when faced with a demonstrably erroneous precedent, my rule is simple: We should not follow it.”
Justice Thomas is right!

In response to the Iranian-led attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, President Trump ordered an airstrike that killed Iranian Quds Froce leader Quassim Suleimani and the Iranian supported Popular Mobilization Forces leader Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes.
Suleimani drove Iran’s state-sponsored terrorism.
General Mark Milley, Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, said, “the game has changed.” If the Iranian-backed forces attack U.S. interests again, particularly the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad,
there is sufficient combat power there, air and ground, that anyone who attempts to overrun that will run into a buzz saw.
“So Aaron took it as Moses said and ran into the midst of the assembly. And behold, the plague had already begun among the people. And he put on the incense and made atonement for the people. And he stood between the dead and the living, and the plague was stopped" Numbers 16:47-48 (ESV).

Often, when the concept of intercession is raised, we normally think about prayer and we should. Prayer is one form of intercession.
Here, we see another – living intercession.
At the climax of a plague, Aaron runs into the fray, armed with incense, and where he stands, the plague stops. Aaron literally stands between the living and the dead.
May God move us to be living intercessors for our day, and where we take our stand in Christ, the plague stops!
You shall have no other gods before me.

In 1954 Americans lived under constant threat of nuclear attack from the USSR.
When American children practiced duck and cover in classrooms across the country, President Eisenhower realized that our pledge had no distinction from any other republic.
After hearing a sermon on February 7th of that year, President Eisenhower signed a law adding the words “under God” to our pledge.
The president recognized the true source of unity, of indivisibility is unwavering submission to the God of the bible.
As we go about our day, let us all remember the only true source of national unity is submission to almighty God.
“Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds” Matthew 14:22.

Here Jesus instructed His disciples to cross a lake and meet Him on the other side of it. As they went, they were met by a violent wind storm that halted their progress.
Often in our Christian lives we receive clear instruction from the LORD, only to be met by an obstacle that halts our progress. We must, however, recognize that the onset of a storm does not cancel out God’s instructions.
Halted progress does not equal denied destination.
When Jesus directed the disciples to go to the other side, He absolutely meant for them to get there.
Delay does not equal denial.
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Statistics show that children who grow up without a father are 5 times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime. They’re 9 times more likely to drop out of school and 20 times more likely to end up in prison. Yet the percentage of children born to fatherless homes has skyrocketed in America. As of 2015, 25 percent of white, 53 percent of Hispanic and 73 percent of black babies are born into fatherless homes.
While Scripture teaches that the weight of raising children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord falls upon fathers, seems like we need a movement that says fatherhood matters.
