Besides last night's episode of the tv turning itself on and the night before other thing, now an electronic device elsewhere in the house has turned itself on.  I'm not sure what's going on, but if I were going off previous encounters, I would say there is some spiritual warfare going on in this house.  I dunno, but I can tell ya, I've been doing some praying here.  I also was talking to the 8 year old today about the Lord.  He has learned about heaven and hell and other things pertaining to eternal life, but he doesn't quite understand the Christian baseline of "no man shall enter except through Me" and "the only name under Heaven given among men whereby we must be saved" and a lot more scripture.

That name, of course, is Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  

I have often found that the enemy ramps up attacks whenever a person is getting close to receiving Christ in their heart.  I can't say I much care for it, especially when this stuff is going on in the dead of night.  But, that is the enemy - darkness.  The Light dispels the darkness.  There are so many scriptures that come to mind now that I'm thinking about it. 

I am going to pray tonight that nothing happens.  Because I really don't want to keep going through this.  I've had these battles and they can go on almost indefinitely.  Rather just believe God to send angels to deal with the situation and get the enemy out of this house.  I'm not going to be run out of here, either.  The blood of Christ breaks the curse - the enemy does not like to hear about the blood of Christ. Mostly because it's the shed blood at the cross of Calvary that defeated satan and his minions.  I don't think the devil understood that killing Christ was actually what God wanted to happen.  What needed to happen. The ultimate, sinless sacrifice - for without the shedding of blood, there is no atonement for sin. This is why bulls, goats, cattle, a lot of different kinds of animals were being sacrificed in the Old Testament.  

Once Christ was hung on the cross and pierced by a spear and his blood came out - and he died - that was it. It was the end. No more sacrifices needed to be made. The thing people don't understand is that Christ came to FULFILL the law, not abolish. God is the same yesterday, today and forever.  The 10 commandments didn't somehow disappear in the age of grace.  

I could go on and on, but I do think that this boy coming to Christ is probably the reason for all of this nonsense and if that is true, then it's worth the fight.  

“Pay attention, all of Judah, every inhabitant of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat,” Jahaziel said. “This is what the Lord says to you: Don’t be afraid or discouraged by this great army because the battle isn’t yours. It belongs to God!

  This is what I have to remember when these things start happening, the battle is the Lord's!

6But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 7Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. 

 I have lots of scripture flowing through my mind and my heart.  God's word is the way to defeat the enemy, standing in faith upon the Lord's promises to us - yet also remembering to submit to His will. Not because we are obligated, but because we love Him and we want to! It's pure freedom.

"Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”

 That posted because tomorrow is never a given. It may come or it may happen that I - or anyone - may pass. Just look in the news lately with all kinds of celebrities and people in the limelight that are passing away - even at much younger ages than you would expect or hope for the person. 

So, if the Lord wills - I have been saying that a lot to myself lately - I will go to the property tomorrow and hopefully get something done now that I have pretty much everything that I need to get a lion's share of this project done. The wood to mount the panel is in place, I just need mount the panel now.  

Hopefully the new guy will show up while I'm there working.  This is really contingent upon my sleep tonight tho. Regardless of this stuff going on, some nights I sleep great and other nights it's very poor sleep.  It dictates how much I will get done. In extreme cases, it dictates that I will get nothing done.  I'm trying to get back into "working for a company" mode and it's been very difficult.  

Well, T Mobile router didn't work here at the house.  Not a strong enough signal. Even tho we are allegedly smack dab in the middle of 5g territory.  The property? No idea, it'll be going over there tomorrow. If it doesn't work there, either, it's going straight back to T Mobile.  Great price if it works..useless if it doesn't.  

Then, I'll be stuck with this over-priced Verizon setup and there isn't much I can do about it.  I keep getting emails from Verizon about "overuse" of data and "adding" more to it.  I will be calling them asking them again - for the fun of it - if there is an unlimited data plan for the thing.  There are endless companies offering satellite internet - but it's all the same as Hughes. Slow and expensive.  The different with Starlink is the satellites are much closer to the earth, so I've read anyway.  Other satellites are 22,000 miles up, Starlinks are much much closer giving much faster usage.  

I just can't fathom paying $500 per month for Starlink. In the long run, it is highly likely that coughing up the 7 plus grand for the local, wired internet will be a better deal.  

I've sent an email to Fidelity business sales - a thing I haven't done yet - to ask if they could check into why the engineer thinks the setup needs 1,700 feet of wiring when the next door neighbor has Fidelity?  And clarified - in case they didn't know - I don't want internet at each site, I just want to broadcast wifi.  I don't know what else to do.  Eat high internet bills until something comes along that will work.  

Hmm. Well Starlink is now showing April as the date it will switch from "low capacity" to high capacity in my area.  Well if that's true, that's not terrible far off.  RV starlink is available now, but there aren't any guarantees of service and looking at their service map? Not worth it, we are in low capacity area and very low speeds.  

Well, anyway, if he comes, tomorrow the park is half full.  That is a good thing.  Just 7 to go!

Now, if I could get some sleep without weird things happening tonight....
