I personally prefer conflict and war because peace follows after evil has been put back in place or eliminated
Will the Zoom calls be recorded to watch later? I work during the week-day, and hoping I will be able to participate as much as possible.
@@ginaroberts2964 yes
I’m so proud of you John & Mercedes, Best video you’ve ever made! (This Response to M of B.) John, this is not only happening to you. Yahweh (His Holy Spirit) is moving in the hearts of many as a calling to separate themselves out from the world. He’s calling out a remanent who will follow Him and be steadfast during the storms that will come. Your explanation is parallel to what happened to me. God told me to turn off the news, stop listening and watching. Like you I have a strong passion for this country. But He has turned that passion to Him and His ways and understanding. His faith is infinite, His love is infinite, meaning not bound by time, space or any human understanding. It is almost unfathomable. As David writes in the Psalms over and over. We are warriors at heart. So now, let your worship be your warfare, and in some form or another preach the good news. Mercedes, John doesn’t have to be a “preacher” to preach. To preach can be as simple as living out what you know & believe.
Your journeys in the spirit and the natural will balance out with each other. The key ingredient as you know, is love.
Sorry I'm out of work and out of money. I'll be with you in spirit. Lent's just about here! Hurray!
I’m 72, female and alone. You didn’t scare me with your message. It was spot on and so real. I love you guys and pray for you daily. Hugs!
We love you Debbie🙏❤️
♥
Didn't scare me a bit...truth is not to be feared.
@Debbie, I just turned 72 as well. I have some family but I might as well be all alone since nobody will have anything to do with me, but Abba is always with me. Keep up the good fight of faith my sister!
It shouldn't scare Christians. It doesn't scare me either.
John is a man of faith. Faith doesn’t make a person perfect. It makes a person humble and wise.
Thank you 🙏❤️
ua-cam.com/video/3WUFeVH6f9E/v-deo.html
Faith doesn't make anyone humble and certainly doesn't make a person wise. Wisdom typically comes from life experiences, good and bad. It's also often passed down from elders.
I'M CONFUSED... I'm 76, I THOUGHT JOHN WAS FINE LAST WEEK! I'm not "Goddy" (as Mercede says) but you're message was eye-opening and necessary. Basically, I took it to mean "BE Prepared" if you're not, "GET Prepared"! Maybe you do have to reflect on your path, BUT SO DO WE and last week helped; it didn't hurt! Aloha from Quartzsite AZ
I am 70 also, and I thought his message was perfect. He has eyes wide open. Many do not have hope the way the gvts are moving. People are dropping dead on their feet, dropping dead while working,
Dieing while doing sports. Just dropping dead. Plus they got the 15 min cities they want to lock people in. No cars, u got a report card that determines if you get food that day, no cars, life is getting pretty scary. John has his eyes wide open. It is confusing what is what God wants preached about. There is NO solution. How can we win against people who have more money then they need, who are so bored they want control, think we are all useless eaters. How do you fight them? How do you fight UFO invasions? Wars, earthquakes that will rattle your teeth out?
Well, I'm gonna ignore them, mostly, and go gold prospecting and camping, and if the world implodes well it was a good run, I did the best I could.
I will be looking for Mercedes hope project. We can definitely use some hope. Good move to look for it. If we can pray our newer truck into our front yard, and get packed we will be headed out.
Good luck. John, never stop listening to God. He will sort this all out for you. God bless.
🙌🏻👍🏻👏🏻
👍❤
Amen! “Be prepared, NOT scared!” Jesus is coming again, hallelujah. Let us eagerly await His return and be ready! Let us be active in sharing His Truth and telling others about Him - no such thing as “too Goddy” ~ Lord bless all that you do and May all that you do be unto His glory, amen! ✝️❣️
You stood up for what you believe now stop being thin skin. You say in this country I am a Christian, people’s going to abuse you make fun of you. Christians are in the minority. God is your strength. I am 85 no fear I know where I am going when I die
John, I don't believe you were wrong! We all need to be prepared!
Agree, but I need to work on my delivery and not freak my Wife out😀 Humility is a good thing.
@@RVOddCouple she freaks out when you talk about anything that may be controversial, but really it isn’t. Chill out, Mercedes! . ❤ If we don’t speak about subjects like this, we will lose our country. Don’t put out the flame of hubby. Don’t censor. YT and the world does enough of that already. John fires us all up. Which we all need.
@@semicountryliving3095 exactly! Mercedes needs to get some thicker skin.
@@RVOddCouple John Follow Yeshua Jesus. Think abt it - He freaked many out with TRUTH! He says to follow Him, follow His example. Not people's opinions. Or anyone that wants to hide behind their own sins & disbeliefs. Everyone of of us will stand before God and be held accountable for our own choices. No excuses on that day!
Choose you this day whom you will serve - as for me I'm on the God squad! ❤🙏✡︎✝
@@RVOddCouple I'd be more concerned with Jesus point of view not your wife's. Humility has nothing to do with speaking the truth, especially when it may save a soul. Who is the author of your Salvation? Jesus or Mercedes
I'm a 57 year old wife, mom and grandmother. I'm the one really "awake" in this family and have been for almost a decade. I know the agenda of the evil doers and it's so frustrating when most people are asleep or just don't want to hear the truth. I was defiantly not offended but if you need to take a different direction for you and your family...please do it. I love your channel either way & seeing what you are doing with Thunder Canyon and your new homestead. I'm living vicariously through you guys since I would love to have a homestead on some land. We had to sell our motorhome to buy a house but plan on renting a TT and coming to you place someday!! Take care and God bless!
John, what you’re going through, I’ve gone through myself about 2 years ago. I’m with you brother. I’m prepared and I’m understanding what is coming. I just don’t know when. My wife was supportive but she finally convinced me to, “put more positives in my life”. Since then I’ve stepped back, because I know it’s in Gods time and it will be His hands.
It’s ok that you scared people. You may have changed their lives and help them prepare. I truly believe he is using you to spread his word. Stay strong! 🇺🇸
Yes Some may have needed nudging a bit wake them up to reality because Satan does have his way of lullaby ng us asleep in this crazy world constantly chur ning with temptations, and distractions to keep our minds off of the answer! Which is Jesus Christ! Some were helped by your jolting them into reality but then quickly focusing back on the solution.. Jesus! Amen?
What is going to really scare people is when people realize that they put their trust in a lie because everytime reality told them to wake up,they choose to hit the snooze button.
@@andyv324 oh yeah that's true!
Stay vigilant ✌️ we are fighting the good fight
Triumph
Fancy meeting you here! ❤
ua-cam.com/video/3WUFeVH6f9E/v-deo.html
I haven’t watched you guys in over a year. I decided to check in and John is scaring everyone and Mercedes is saying her husband is in late afternoon.
From where I’m sitting John is spot on. I don’t blame Mercedes for being unsettled by it. Because John felt strongly and did share a scary (but true) message it is not his fault and it is not incumbent on him to have the solution. If you see a house on fire doesn’t mean if you sound the alarm you also have to put it out.
I see a lot of people accusing others of being “too God(ie)” no such thing. I hope you keep pointing to God and trusting on him. Sometimes its all we can do. Don’t forget Noah spend 100 years building an ark and telling people why and convinced no one. John
Amen!!!
Amen!
Amen!
John, very well said!!
Right ON!
As a guy in his mid 60’s, I think as you get older you start thinking more about God.
I think John finally realized when he said “I’m tired, and I’m going to let God handle this”. 👍🏻🙏🏻
Exactly! I’m tired of fighting
I'm in my 60s and serving God is a priority. I'm ready to join him any time he calls. This is a major paradigm shift for me as I always planned to live until 100 yo.
I am excited to see where this goes. I lost my wife to cancer back in October and her faith was so powerful and was amazing to see how many lives she touched through her journey. I am working to help spread her journey and how God was center in everything even when everything seemed so horrible she always brought it to him. She taught me and our kids so much. We are hoping to make it out to Thunder Canyon either this year or next. Keep up the great work and message.
We so look forward to meeting you Jeremy❤️
Sorry for you loss Brother🙏
@@RVOddCouplethank you. How is the weather there in October?
@@jeremy7123 best time of the year to visit Jeremy
Sir. This testimony inspires others to check their own hearts. This is a heart rending testimony. Thank you for sharing. God will use this account. May Gods Holy spirit manifest his comforting love and presence to you and your whole family.
John I can understand where you are. As a watchman we want to do our best to warn everyone. I never want anyone to say why didn’t you tell me. We also know in the midst of this evil time we live in there is always hope and we were born for such a time as this. You are a light in a dark world. Keep up the good work with love, kindness, and joy.
Thank you Kathy🙏❤️ Hope we meet
Yes, I glorify The Lord for the few courageous that with all the kindness of their hearts alert others. May they remember that cowards do not enter the kingdom of heaven..I don't understand those that get scared for being alerted and prefer to live blind, instead of straghtening out their lives with God. Unbelievable!! May God bless you John!!
?
@@RVOddCouple John, don't ever ever apologize for teaching the truth..don't water down the gospel. Time is short- u have a platform. Use it. Not sure I like the term" goddy", but He clearly has a plan for your life. Be strong and encourage EACH OTHER you guys are great! Thank u!
John has an intense personality with very strong morals and convictions, and I suspect very little tolerance for b.s. He's doing what he was meant to do. No need to change or apologize for anything.
I wouldn’t change a thing. It’s Part of my spiritual journey.
I am working on my delivery
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@RVOddCouple you delivery was fine! Don’t cater to the weak!
We know by reading the Bible what’s going to happen. You are discussing what we have been told for years. 1 Peter 5:6-7. 2 Timothy 3:1-5 We know it's coming all we can do is what God has called us to do.
Amen Russ🙏 Took me some time…
Not everyone knows unless your church taught on endtimes.
@@paulac7802 Best to study the Bible for oneself. Man/church has many interpretations of the Bible.
@@RVOddCouple we are all always learning. I need to grow so much more just to be where your at and spreading the word.
Maybe you, but half the people in the world are clueless. I thank God there are people out there that are strong enough to speak about the 1/3 of the Bible that the cowards won't. They are to afraid to loose their donations. I say to him KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
Jon, I went through this for several years. I was ridiculed, called crazy, laughed at, talked about, intimidated by the enemy, followed, messed with, etc. Why? I was spending every waking moment trying to shake people awake. It's tough being a warrior for truth and justice. You are not alone in your feelings of needing to educate and warn people. Yes, we are supposed to be loving and compassionate, but God also tells us to be bold as lions. We are spiritual beings and this world is not our home. Be led by God and not the criticisms of others. Our human instincts are to be liked and accepted by others, but ultimately, it's God's acceptance that counts. Warning people about the mark of the beast is a noble thing. Don't feel bad or guilty for doing that. You may have lost some earthly thinkers, but you may have saved some souls. I don't need to explain that any further. You know what you know. Follow your God Heart.
Since God is love, and He warns us plenty of times to get our lives in order or else, then THAT is love. Plain and simple. He wants the best for us, but all too often we don't want that for ourselves. We'd rather attack and divide, but be aware, God knows who are His. And He knows who aren't. They are the ones who are grateful to be warned, and who listen. Not attack. You just can't please everyone, can you?!
John, Mercedes don't worry about things you can't control, people will listen, or they won't. Been following you two for a while now and do understand the passion that is present in you. Many years ago, I was recalled back home from sea duty due to my mother's death only to find her alive in a hospital, talk about a shock. She had suffered for many years in pain and that's when she told me she didn't understand why they had brought her back to this world, first time in many years she felt free from pain. I visited with her for 3 days before she passed away and will always remember what she said. Fast forward 15 odd years and I honored an agreement that both my wife and I had made to each other and took her off life support, I now have the same agreement with the person who has my power of attorney to do the same for me if it comes to that stage in my life. So, you see that we can only control what we can control, nothing else. Now I am not a church goer, but I do believe, the Man upstairs has a plan for all of us, most of us don't know what it is. God bless you and your family for whatever he has instore for you brother.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Can’t wait to come visit you guys. God bless.
Our Favorite Prayer❤️❤️❤️
Looking forward to saying it with you James🙏
Amen💕
GOD grant me the serenity to accept the problem. Courage to change the problem. Wisdom to know I am the problem. And new idea for the serenity prayer.
In this day ant time you need to learn to CHANGE the things you cannot accept. It's good vs evil and evil can no longer be accepted.
After the last video I was angry, not at you guys, about being watched every place you go. The surveillance has become so intimidating and intrusive that I don't want to go anywhere. I'm not a criminal and I'm sick of being treated like one. After a day or so I realized that being angry served no purpose beyond awareness and it was time to do something about it. We need hope, we need God, and I thank you guys for being who you are🙏❤
My hope is that “We the People” wake up and don’t comply. Trust God not government🙏
We need more of God’s love, hope and peace, patience, gentleness, happiness. We need less fear and anger. Speaking to myself too 😅
It is unfortunate that we live in a very dangerous world where there is surveillance everywhere. Criminals are now being caught on RING video cameras and 4 youths were just caught by use of video at an elementary school down the street from our home for vandalizing the school. If it hadn't been for the video there may not have been swift justice for this act of vandalism. However, I totally agree that, in the information age, that we have very little privacy left and our information and photos are out there for the taking by criminals as well. Someone filed an IRS tax return in our name in 2014 and since then we get a special PIN code every January from the IRS to file our tax returns. Luckily that is all they stole.
@@dianekirvan9906 I don't disagree that some surveillance is necessary and helpful but having a camera right in your face as you self checkout serves no other purpose than to collect data. No retailer stops people from stealing and very few actually go after criminals using the video they take. I work for a retailer who does but they are uncommon in the industry. My employer even has cameras in our break room!
@@RVOddCouple i am a wide awake anon, I trust nothing at face value. I put my faith in our lord and savior, leaning heavily into his grace for answers.
I too have been down so many rabbit holes, trying to understand what is going on in this world. It took me 5 years to understand that being informed doesn't change God's plan. The song chorus to "I don't need to understand" helps me to remember...
"I don’t ever need to ask the reason, why
For I know He’ll make a way
Through the night and through the day
I don’t need to understand
I just need to hold His hand"
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank you Mac
Beautiful lyrics and so very true! Have you heard of Rita Springer? She sings a song I believe it’s called “Its Gonna Be Worth It” grab your tissues cause it a doozy!! I’m a worship singer and can hardly get through it without balling!!
Really feel compelled to pray this over you; May the Joy of the Lord fill you up to overflowing as you pour out your heart and love to His children. May He give you wisdom and understanding as to the best way to talk to and help others who are really struggling and having their faith stretched! May your household and family be blessed. In Jesus Name!
☮️💟✝️
Yes. Yes. Hold onto Jesus. 😭💔❤😊
You didn't scare me John and Mercedes you expressed yourself so well! I love you both. I can't tell you how many people are going through this now and they don't understand it any better than you two understand it. Are you the RV God Squad now?
Please remember that when we do the right thing, the devil creates madness. I am glad you opened my eyes.
I'm sitting here watching your video and just wanted to reach out to you and say that You are on the right tract. It is true that those who are asleep don't want to be awakened, and when you try, they get mad. Maybe you can do it better but it doesn't really matter because people still don't like the truth.
Bulls eye! All we do is share where we are
@@RVOddCouple Plz keep it up. It becomes incumbent to not hide our Light under a bush.
Love the prayer..wish everybody would say the entire 🙏 prayer, but I know it and we love everyone❤ next year my husband has 50 years recovery. He’s willing and God is good! I’m just a pup with 18 years! God is first…then me..my husband and others. Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time, accepting hardships as the pathway to peace..taking as he did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it trusting that HE will make things right. I surrender to His Will, that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. AMEN. Love you All ❤
John pls don’t be so hard on yourself. Most of us Understand and appreciate why you shared what you did. How could you not share such insight? You’ve
carried so much on your shoulders to provide the best for Jade & Mercedes while battling cancer. Mercedes Yes we all need Hope. We also need to use our good sense to avert dangers no matter how uncomfortable we may feel. To deny isn’t an option. God Bless.
John you are alerting those who satan has blind and don't want to see what is obvious. You are very courageous. Sad you are taking a step back because of those not really committed to God. I follow you from Puerto Rico.
Well said! Backtracking is pointless.
Exactly and disappointing-but hopefully he will read yours and others comments and be encouraged to continue blowing the alarm!
John, I’ve been following you from almost the beginning and, to my discredit, had strong suspicions that it was all a con job. I am embarrassed by that now and, though we’ve not met, I apologize. I’m one of your followers in my late 70s and, while I’m not alone, I deal with all of the emotional turmoil that old age brings as we downshift into lifes final turn. Throughout my life I’ve reinvented myself several times which is exactly what you and your family are doing, although on a scale few of us could ever emulate. I admire your courage and your willingness to change direction as circumstances change without losing sight of your ultimate goal. You’re an inspiration to many of us and I wish all of you the best. Great video, by the way. The baby calf portion was amazing.
Looking forward to telling you about the Baby Calf story Tim. We don’t know how to act, so what you see is what you get❤️ We simply share what’s going on and Pray for what’s next
It's a con job and turning into a cult.
@@RVOddCouple Your Transparency is Refreshing. The Biblical definition of Hypocrite = Play Actor. We have enough hypocrites in politics and religion. Be yourself...warts and all. In this crazy world..."bad words" would be the least of my worries. As a matter of fact... I have more trust for passionate Christians who use "bad words" ; especially when they are upset about injustice. I see them as REAL folks with REAL compassion. PS: People w/ compassion for animals really ROCK my world. Each of you must be true to God's Will and direction for your lives; in His TIME & PURPOSE. May God bless you both with Wisdom, Courage, and Discernment. 🙏🙏💗💗
You both are so real and a blessing to many. Perfect imperfection.
Yes.
Love you both and thank you for your honesty and showing who you really are. You’re human of the best kind, God Bless.
In our works, we show who we are. Keep up your good work.
Thank you Charlie
The right thing to do is seldom the easy thing to do. You did the right thing. The 10% will probably remain blind to the issues.
Hard lessons… Thank you Tom
You was NOT at all wrong last week! We all needed to hear what your video had to say! PLEASE do not regret! You are doing very, very important work! How can we prepare and refuse if do not know???!!
Dear sister, you don't have to act or be perfect if your husband is a preacher of righteousness. You just have to be transparent. GBU both your humility is a blessing. God is a shelter from this evil world out here.
My life has felt crappy with no hope. This idea feels like an answer to my prayers. I will look to do this challenge either with you or on my own. Focusing on hope for 40 days sounds like exactly what I need.
Hang in there Laura❤️❤️❤️ Looking forward to seeing you. Lots of hope🙏🙏🙏
You guys have the right to express how you feel on your channel. It’s okay. I see where y’all are coming from. Blessings ❤
Blessings 🙏❤️
Love you guys even though I have never met y’all. Nothing wrong with loving God and preaching the word of God. Keep up the good work and spread Gods word my friends. ❤
I think , for myself at 70 yrs old, my priorities are different than when i was younger. The same as now, since my husband is retired, our money issues look different than during our peak earning years ago.. This whole age thing has made me much more aware of not only my own mortality but of how I'm living my SPIRITUAL life. So seeing the things going on around us in the world is naturally distressing. BUT that has made me much more confident that the lyrics from the song we sang in the '60's from "Wayfaring Stranger", "This world is not my home, I'm only passing thru, if Heaven's not my home, then Lord what would I do?" is true, I'm more focused than ever on that. You guys are just living these thoughts & stages in your lives out loud for everyone to see. Take heart, Keep the faith & if we can never get our RV out of Oregon to Alabama to visit, rest assured we'll see ya in HEAVEN someday! ♥ Nancy
God bless you Nancy🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
There's so much chaos and turmoil in the world that we sometimes fail to see what's right before our eyes. The negative forces want us to keep our eyes and attention on the negative. I always say, "Look what God has done! Look what God is doing! Faith tells us to believe what God will do." Keep hope alive.
I keep hearing tidbits about your daughters condition. I have a grandson named Oliver. He was diagnosed to Autism Spectrum Disorder and he wasn't talking. He is 4 1/2 and is now beginning to to speak a few words and make progress. If your daughter was like this it gives me true hope for Ollie. I have prayed for my grandson every day for a couple of years now and have faith he will keep improving. When did your daughter begin to really communicate? Thanks for your videos and Gob Bless. Mike from Saskatchewan Canada.
Ollie is perfect🙏❤️ Adding to our Prayers Mike
@@RVOddCouple ......thanks !!!!!!!
John, your last video was emotionally raw. You were spilling out all your concerns and warning others. I am in total agreement with you. I too have tried to warn others or say things to hopefully make them think. But as I read God's word I had to remember that God's Got It. That nothing going on right now in this world is a surprise to Him. Keep sharing His love on this channel, keep sharing how He's moving in your life. Keep leading by example. People need good examples these days. I've unscribed from so many RV you tube channels in the last few months because they are not what real life is for us. But your channel whether your talking RVing,Thunder canyon or homesteading it speaks to my life too. Mercedes,, God wants you to share His love,grace,mercy and forgiveness and do so fearlessly. We don't have to push it just lead by example!!! Hugs and prayers!
John, you are so passionate about the truth and its beautiful and encouraging to see that. Sometimes is overwhelming whats going on in the world.
We love you guys. God bless you
Thank you Ed❤️ What you see is what you get. We can only share where we’re at in the Journey. Thank you🙏
Don't be fearful!!! Guys we're saved already, back to work. John we love you. See you down the road.
Amen🙏
Thank you for your awareness, and being willing to put your thoughts out there. No one is right or wrong all the time. Thank you for putting out a sensitive message and being honest. God bless you.
It can be uncomfortable in the arena but We share where we’re are and it changes daily.
John I totally support you! May The Father KEEP your marriage strong!!! Bless your Dear wife. 💘
John...I am with you. The Lord is truly moving in you. The prophets of the old testament rarely brought good news, but CAUTION...which is what you did. Time is short and your message spoke to many. Keep up the GOD work. We need The Lord in Everything!
It’s always been fun and impactful to watch your journey. Even more so now. I didn’t start going to church until I was 30 after walking away from substance abuse etc. Then a Baptist deacon for 27 years before I began seeking the 3rd part of the Trinity which I was never discipled in. As Christians we now have 2 natures. Whichever we feed the most will be the strongest. But be Spiritually obvious without being Spiritually obnoxious. And as my Pastor said, ‘’don’t be so Heavenly minded that you’re no earthly good’’.
Oh my.
That’s stupid “don’t be so heavenly minded that you’re no earthly good” and a PASTOR said that retarded nonsense?! No, the MORE heavenly minded you are the MORE earthly good you are? Duh!!!
I so agree with u. God is part of your amazing journey
You guys aren't perfect that's EXACTLY 💯 why God has chosen you both to get this message out there and prepare ourselves mentally and physically and emotionally. We are stepping into a new time.....
I can attest to where John is in his spiritual walk 🙏 I am almost 65 and my perspective has shifted as well. I am awake and so much more aware of the spiritual battle in our midst. We are in the end times and we are experiencing a revival of epic proportions. God has us 🙏 My personal scripture from Holy Spirit is Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart;do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do,and he will show you which path to take.
Well John, here’s how we see it. It’s been a rough 3 years of eye opening events and truths to see IF people choose to open their eyes. What should we do, pretend it’s NOT happening so that those who refuse to see will be comfortable?
Look, it’s gloves off time and it’s gotten down and dirty and if we are EVER going to have a chance at a decent world again, we better get smart, get educated to it and get going!!!! I’m sorry that that grandmother got scared by your video, but as I see it, if she is a grandmother, she has lived long enough to know right from wrong and SEE the wrong and destruction BEFORE your talk. I know, We are 80+year old great grandparents who have been following the trail of destruction since the early 80’s when things just weren’t adding up! The destructive forces WANT us to shut up! They WANT us to just obey and abide like good little sheeple, much easier to take over a quiet flock than one who senses danger and prepares. The Jews of the 30-40’s went to their deaths praying quietly to God. I very much doubt this generation would because they LEARNED! God helps them who help themselves, always beside us and for us but we have a responsibility too,it’s just plain, simple truth! So, do what you think best but as for us, we have a great respect for you and your calling out of evil when you see it. Your idea of studying on a solution and not the fear is excellent. We have our creator on our side.💖👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It's ironic that after I watched last week's video, our pastor preached on it! I believe it was meant for you to share that! My opinion, of course. Have a wonderful week and God bless you all!
Gods will be done🙏 Everything is for a reason.
Thank you and God bless you as well. I’d like to hear that Sermon
@@RVOddCouple I even shared your channel with him and showed him where to find that video!
My husband and I stopped going to church because no one preaches about it here. We were attending a church with another family member, and they were told never ever talk about politics or any of the current events. Another church opened cocktail clinic. They had a live sermon on their UA-cam channel which I commented on about, and they blocked me lol. For some of us, we have to go to UA-cam whether it's a preacher, or someone like your channel who is telling the truth. My husband and I have been speaking the truth, And we have lost friends. There's always going to be that 10% that's not going to like what you say. But keep on saying it though! ♥️🙏
@@VM-123 no worries VM. I can’t keep my mouth shut
@@RVOddCouple I can't either lol. Someday, I hope my husband and I can visit Thunder Canyon. 🙏♥️
Be the change you want to see in the world 🙏❤️🇺🇸
Amen🙏❤️
Amen to that!🙏
John don’t let satan get to you !! you’re trying your best to warn people, or in the very least open their eyes to the evil around us and the unholy state of our country is in now I for one I’m very proud of what you’re doing and to know I have always respected you and Mercedes. Stay strong and keep letting the Lord work through you. 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Exactly!
Love you guys, being transparent and following God and sharing all your good and bad is a a big step of faith. ❤❤❤🙏🏼🙏🏼
Growing pains for sure Don…thank you🙏❤️
We had to know the problem to start working on a solution. This stuff is unsettling to some ,and it needs to be. If we had more statesman and less career politicians as leaders we would not have to discuss things like this , where we are now didn’t start last week , our heads have been in the sand for generations. Do we stay buried? We all fall miserably short of what God deserves from us, even the disciples fell short ,so all we can do is do the best we can. Thank you both !!
When God puts something on your heart, it's your job to share it. You can't control how others will receive it. I realize you feel bad about scaring a grandmother, but maybe that is exactly what she needed. It is when we are scared that we press into God. Blessings!
I liked that you told us what’s going on, but I remember reading somewhere that you can’t tell people , you have to show them. Some will understand some will not and become angry. God is in charge of all things , so bringing hope for all is a good reminder to those that get caught up in all the world is slinging at us.
Thank you Tanya😀
Mercedes you are a breath of fresh air. John is greatly blessed, you are his ground wire. This HOPE priority is a wonderful plan.
So true Cynthia!!! I’m so grateful that God sent Mercedes❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
And that’s the truth👆
You were right to share a concern and Mercedes was right on how to deliver or covey that concern. A man's logic + a woman's sensitivity is generally a good healthy balance
God gives us this balance🙏 In a blessed man

The authenticity of your content is amazing. God is great and I'm inspired by John's faith. You two are my brother and sister in Christ and I love you.
I was glad I watched your last video. I felt informed not scared or angry at you, but now aware of what is happening. It took guts to warn people during this time. I appreciate your strength & love of God. May God bless you and your family.
Don't lose your warriors heart John. If the Lird convicts you to stand up STAND up. People are scared of the truth but it needs to be said Even Christ got angry John. Don't be scared to step on toes people need to know what the government agenda is when speaking of our God given rights. You have the platform Don't be silenced. No one is expecting you to be perfect come to God as you are and let Him change you for the better.
These people who think God is always soft-spoken and delicate need to read their Bibles.
I am really looking forward to where you guys are going.
I honestly think that everything around us is so bad, that it has been a shock to everyone. We all never realized how bad it is. So it is wise to know and be prepared the best we can. At the same time, it is really scary. So, your giving us hope is really needed. I can't stress that enough.
Thank you for everything you guys do! Wish we lived closer, or we'd come visit. It would be so cool! Right now we are trying to find land. Who knows where we will end up. Looking around where we currently live first and if that doesn't pan out, we'll be looking elsewhere. So keep these videos coming!!!
Preparing is a good idea
We are in a Spiritual War it's better to know the Landscape than find ourselves surrounded by Landmines.
I love both of your hearts. I do agree with what John said in the last video and believe way to many people allow themselves to live in fear and they need to stop doing that. We should know God wins in the end. Anyway, to find a way to bring people together as you have mentioned is genius. ❤️
Pray that we can all come together and stop judging each other’s path….
Genius? Jesus should be what brings us together not some worldly man made plan of 40 days of whatever and not some unimportant tee-shirt that will fill their coffers. We need to clothe ourselves in the Holy Spirit and witness to the lost. Time is running out. Behold today is the day of Salvation.
@@rt3156 How do you know the genius I spoke of was from John alone and not from inspiration he received from Jesus from his prayers?
John had mentioned he prays for guidance on various issues that come up in his life. I thank Jesus and God for using John to do this very good work. It is obvious it weighs heavily on his and his wife’s hearts. They are truly a blessing to us all. ❤️🙏🏻
@@sherryatthelake5654yeah, I’m pretty sure none of this “weighs heavily on her heart.” On his, sure. But his wife? No, she’s a negative Nancy that just wants to criticize and embarrass her husband in front of the whole world. I don’t believe she’s even born again.
I just love you guys! He made you the way that you are. Celebrate who you are in him! Some of us are more vocal than others. Both of you really show the love of Christ by your actions. John don't be ashamed of yourself. There's nothing wrong with being a watchman on the wall. It's important! I lost my husband 3 years ago to canswer and he was exactly like you! The key is always to come back to your focus on Christ and that in the end he wins and that we have to listen to him and see what he wants us to do. For some we Hunker down. For others we go out and do Daring things. All for his glory! Love you guys
40 Days of Hope brings to mind an old song by Steven Curtis Chapman - Heaven in the Real World - The intro to the song by Chuck Colson : Where is the hope?
I meet millions who tell me that they feel demoralized by the decay around us
Where is the hope?
The hope that each of us have
Is not in who governs us or what laws are passed or
Or what great things that we do as a nation
Our hope is in the power of God working through the hearts of people
And that's where our hope is in this country
That's where our hope is in life 🙏❤️
Mercedes, we’re the “not having yourself together couple who messes up a lot” too. Maybe that should be a t-shirt.😂✝️🇺🇸❤️🙏🏻We love you guys & definitely want 2 Godd Squad t-shirts! ❤Kim & Dave in Basalt CO
Love that idea!!!😘
Wonderful shift in perception. Soft loving and gentle with others, and your self is great advice, and remember why many of us started following you in the first place. Education is fine, fear mongering is not. Speak the truth allow us to do with it as we see fit.
Some are harder headed than others😀 I’ve got a hard head but I think I got the lesson🙏❤️
I believe that you honestly wanted to warn others and that is laudable. The hardest part of being a Christian is living under the attack of our enemy that we might sit next to is often a church member. I don’t think we should just attack spiritual leaders since that is dangerous ground to stand on. Join, keep your eyes often and follow God’s voice.
So-called spiritual leaders like my previous pastor who is a narcissistic abuser who would throw entire families out of the church for simply disagreeing with him need to be at least shamed for their garbage behavior. Some of the worst people I’ve met are pastors, very hard to find a genuine one.
Your right John, keep telling the truth. Dont water down the truth. Dont sugar coat it to satisfy people.
Agreed Skip. Working on my delivery
🙌🏻
❤ John!!!! Keep on keeping on. You got this!!! Wishing you two the best.
John, I don't often comment on UA-cam but your previous video and this one compelled me. First, there is power in truth and you were shown a truth that many of us have seen and have realized for some time now. I've been watching events over the last several years and we went through a few similar issues on these very topics. My wife and I watched you're last video together, you weren't off the mark and were spot on. You've received wisdom from others so I humbly offer this having had similar discussions early on, guide her into things gently and lovingly showing her what you see ahead and how you look to prepare for what's to come, physically and spiritually. As the spiritual leader of your family take a deep breath and know where Mercedes and others are in their faith journey and respect that and temper it as God directs you. That said, if God truly calls you to share what is on your heart do so and ensure Mercedes understands you are doing so from a place of love of God as well as her and the family. As men, we see the world for what it is as God wired us to see it. We each have a role (Eph 5:22-33) and Mercedes seems to be navigating that but does not appear to be and by her admission not as far along in her journey.....focus on that and God will move both of you to a place of understanding and mutual respect for the road ahead. One thing both my wife and I said after the end of your last video was that you are both working on the same issue at hand from different points of view....Mercedes stated she wants focus on homesteading and preparing for hard times ahead (as do you), you however see the spiritual side of the battle that lies ahead and the real reason to prepare in addition to the physical. The 40 days of Hope and Love challenge is definitely something my wife and I will be taking a look at and it looks to be very beneficial. In the end God's Will, will be done and Scripture lays out what is to come, that may or may not be now but we will definitely face trials and tribulations. I for one have never felt closer to the End Times and prophecies and descriptions as today. As Christians we need to acknowledge the reality of what He has laid out as it is all part of His glorious plan. Until that day we do what we were commissioned to do, Love God, love our neighbors, and make disciples of all the nations. As to other Christians that may have judged you James 4:11-12 may be worth re-reading. God Bless both of you and know you are not alone, nor wrong in what you put forth, just trust in the Lord that His will be done as He moves us and take solace in His promise in Isaiah 35. Mercedes, stay strong and know that we are not called to be perfect and we serve a loving God. I pray that you and your family find the same strength and courage and trust in Him that mine has found in facing these times.
Reposting the same comment because I still feel the same: First time watching your channel. You my dear friend are a watchman on the wall. Our Lord and Saviour Jesus is at the door. Please Please doo not stop spreading this info. What your wife needs to understand is that there is no hope or good news without Jesus. He is the hope, he is the answer, he is the only solution. By listening to the Holy Spirit you are giving people hope. God Bless.
John, you did what you thought was right. God is leading you and just maybe He felt your video would shake some people up to rethink what they are doing with their lives. I feel He led you no matter what you are told.
I think you both have good positive opinions! I enjoy listening to you two.
Praise Jesus! Yep! All this is in our Lord's hands! You know all this stuff, all this craziness in the world, now matter what happens; Our Lord with take us through it! I'm learning to Trust Him! I'm self employed 31 yrs now, I'd say since 2005 I really made my "business objective" or mission statement of my business just to :Glorify God." Not aggressive marketing or anything. Oh I am so blessed what he has taken me, and my family through. It still continues; moment by moment. ALSO: Please notice in our lives how much of our spiritual growth occurs when we are outside of our comfort zone! Welp, I don't know when, but I'm gotta get some stuff fixed on my bus/RV and I'm hoping to plot a course to visit you guys if that is ok; Lord willing. I'm thanking God for you guys, and your being so transparent. Love and blessing to you all! AL from CT.
Y'all are so precious. Your honesty with yourselves about yourselves and where you're at is endearing and comforting and a blessing to all who care to listen. Your honesty about who you are and your relationship with God is a blessing to all, however messy the journey ends up looking. God's got you! Just keep being yourselves and loving God and you will keep doing the right thing. Bless you!!
John and Mercedes, you both are filled with truth. I so appreciate your honesty and truthfulness. Delivery is everything! I am in my 70s and the thought of what our world is becoming is a very scary place. You and I both have the assurance of God's love and protection. Do what you can to direct those that are lost in the world to the Word of God. His teachings are the only way to live. God's continued blessings to you.
Thank you🙏❤️ Working on delivery and eating some humble pie😀 we simply share where we are🙏🙏🙏
you are 100% right.. Ive been studying and researching this for years and were headed in a really bad direction!!.its very sad
Great idea!! I just joined. Focusing on hope and fellowshipping together is the best plan yet. We don't have the answer to all the craziness in the world now, but God does. Our faith is more important now than ever. Thank you for inspiring hope and faith.
I love what Pastor Carl Gallup's says, "God's doesn't want perfection, He wants direction." None of this on this side of eternity will ever achieve perfection, but we need to do out best to stay on the biblical path.
What a sweet video! I enjoy seeing people on fire for God. However, we need not let it stress us out so much, either. You, two, looked and sounded SO RELAXED toward the end of the video! This, too, can be an indication you are putting things in God's hands!! I enjoyed all this. Thanks so much for sharing. I loved seeing the baby calf!!
POWERFUL TESTIMONY!!!!!!
Thank you Brother🙏❤️
I’m 68 and on my own and you didn’t scare me. Finally, someone is brave enough to bring this out. Not all pastors are afraid to stand up to government. Mine kept the church open throughout covid, no masking and defying local authorities. He also did weekly fireside chats on the tyrannical moves of our government and we’re in CA!
I wasn't too alarmed as I knew some of the information, BUT I did get rid of both of my "elexia" devices immediately. I've always known they are listening, so I didn't mind as I thought at least they would hear about Jesus. It is a small thing but we must take a stand and be aware.
My husband works for the city and they are currently replacing all the city lights with the new system...the led light alone is so bright and disturbing. Thank you for the vital information. You two are a blessing.
John, I appreciated your message last week and let my woman’s group watch. We went to a school board meeting AND a city council meeting. Thank you! You are making a difference!
My best friend is often like John’s rant was. She is100% right and I tell her so but she has alienated most of her family and has no close friends other than me (40+ years). She is a baby Christian and I am a strong,long time Christian. I’ve been trying to get her to realize that you cannot pound the truth into someone no matter how noble your intent! When I stay with her for a week or more, I finally, in a nice way tell her to let it go and trust our Lord, because in the end, Christ wins!❤️
John, I started to go through this about 12 years ago. It is a painful process, and "The World" hates the light you shine on it, that does not make you wrong.
Thank you so much for sharing the information with those of us that really do want to be informed about what is actually going on. May The Most High bless you exceedingly abundantly!!!! Please continue don't stop!!!!
I'm in for the 40 Days of Hope and Love. I'm hoping to get up there for Easter, but it depends on the schedule for my next round of cancer treatments (yep, I have to go through it again!).
Hang in there Carl! You’re in our Prayers 🙏❤️
Praying for you
Praying for you, Carl!🙏✝️👑🔥❤️
Love this John and Mercedes, bless you and your new direction!
God bless you Mark🙏
Stormtrooper here. Another great video of transparency. There are two things I am thinking about and wish to share with humility. First, John, your "fire" is awesome. You have expressed over the last couple of Blind Faith. This Blind Faith is often lost on mature Christians in many ways because others have shunned the behavior. What I like in your Blind Faith is the humility expressed when the fire gets unruly. Fortunately, you have Mercedes in that help. However, do not let Mercedes' fear of Too Much God deter you. God will use the Holy Spirit to control that unruly flame, as these videos clearly show. Second, Mercedes, be careful! As there are biblical examples showing the power of Blind Faith, there are others with examples of what happens when one tries to hold God back. As you mentioned here, something in John has/is changed/ing. We've heard it over and over again, "God works in mysterious ways". Your relationship is "mysterious" and IMHO, the Holy Spirit has much to do about it. Mercedes, You hold this man in the crosshairs of his life, do not try to control it. Embrace it! I promise you, you will be pleased. In case this sounds familiar, I am saying this in the spirit of Al Pacino while addressing the Baird School in a movie I can not remember the name of. God Bless you both.
I am a historian who has been studying WWII for decades now. I just finished a book about some of the many people who have been chosen to be "Righteous Among the Nations." Obviously, WWII was a very dark time, but this book, which is full of short stories about everyday people who helped the Jews at their own peril, was absolutely beautiful. Some of these stories brought tears to my eyes more than once. Without Hope, there is nothing.
I’ll check it out. Love studying history.
Crazy how humans continue to make the same mistakes isn’t it?
No need to fall on your sword, John. The world is in turmoil today and we all evaluate our current space with our past. The older one gets, the more "past" we have as our yardstick. I personally feel the world is falling apart. At 66, I have a lot to compare. Bottom line: today is not the world I grew up in. For me, it's about losing our liberties as Americans. We see it everyday. Parents who can't speak up at school board meetings. Presumption of guilt until proven innocent. Having money in your pocket somehow translates into being a criminal. Taking cash out of your bank account is challenged. Surveillance by government across every aspect of our lives. And the list goes on. Being circumspect is being human. Stand your watch and carry on!
It's driving my "beware" feelings...I am feeling like this is becoming a cult. Like the doomsday preppers. I am not ready to drink the coolaide.
.
This video and the "scare" video are my first 2 I have watched of your channel. It personally opened my eyes and I'm glad you posted that video cuz America does need to wake up the church needs to wake up, there is so much going on behind the scenes that we don't know and I thank God that he is using people to reveal these truths that are coming to light. Now, for the wife, believers are not perfect that's why we need a Savior, so don't say you don't want it to be a God channel when God has to use whomever He can to get His messege out, so you may want to let God lead you instead of being concerned with backlash worldly comments. If people criticize or judge you then they are not of God anyways and they need to look at the speck in their own eye. I am going to subscribe because I enjoyed the 2 videos I've seen because I do like that you 2 are real and not hiding your struggles, opinions, and concerns with what evils are attempting to control the narrative but Thank God He is in control and He is victorious and we as believers get to share in that HOPE! AMEN
You have an absolute right to use your platform to get the word out about your faith and 501c3 churches. Real believers are persecuted for their beliefs and how they express themselves. Continue to express yourself in the way the Holy Spirit directs you. The ability you have to listen to others and take advice is also very admirable. Continue on with your ministry and your growth with your family. God bless you both!
Thank you guys! And please bear with one more brief comment...
John, please don't back up!! You are clearly anointed for this, which is why you've received so much support. Your message is solid!! But as a fellow southern New Englander who has just been through the same lesson myself, I suspect He is just trying to adjust your delivery. 😁

I'm 70 female and Christian. You didn't scare me with your message. It was spot on and so real. YOUR VIDEO really opened my eyes even though I had thought about this for years....phones and computers are great inventions but they can be used for BIG BAD PROBLEMS if left as they are headed.
John and Mercedes, i’m basically in the same position as you two are. My wife and I love each other very much, we’ve been married for 42 years, but I tend to take a more serious approach to the world around us. She is serious about the world as well, but she doesn’t want to hear the negative things all the time even though the negative things are growing more common. As a gospel singer I try to remain upbeat and cheerful when I am singing but in my quiet time I do tend to become very upset at the way the world is becoming. Not for me so much, but for my grandkids and for my children. They are the ones that are going to have to go through this world that is to become. I’m 62 now, I have more years behind me then I have a head and I know that I may never see some of these bad things come to fruition but all the same I know my kids and my grandkids will have to go through these things so it’s difficult not to become upset.
