Cast Off Works Of Darkness; Put On The Armor Of Light


This is a historic time of opportunity to celebrate America’s 250th Birthday as we reach out with the Love and Gospel of Jesus Christ and win souls for God’s Kingdom...

"... for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the Armor of Light (Romans 13:11-12).”
We would like to begin with thankfullness for Jesus Christ teaching His disciples in God’s written Word, "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it gives light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven (Matthew 5:14-16)."
How thankful we are for such incredible works and answered prayers we have witnessed of God, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit in our lives, both here in America and in the world! Especially considering everything the Three-in-One Holy Trinity has done through President Trump over this first 18 months as our Commander-in-Chief, we are counting our blessings. What a privilege we have gotten to work together, with Them, to fulfill God's passion in the Earth. We cannot thank our Father enough for giving us Donald J. Trump, his wife and family, and each of his talented cabinet and team members.
In just the first year-and-a-half of Mr. Trump serving his second non-consecutive term, being our 47th President since January 20th, 2025, God has begun miraculously restoring U.S. Constitutional order and the rule of law in America unlike any other time in our nation’s 250-year history. We thank and praise God for providing His divine wisdom, guidance, knowledge, direction, and protection on President Trump and his team. We eagerly anticipate all of what He has in store for the rest of this 250-year Birthday Celebration year of 2026 and beyond, in Christ Jesus our Lord!
Americans must have God and His written and spoken Word in order to be healed, redeemed, and made whole. This is especially true given the assaults of the anti-America, anti-Christ, anti-Constitutional presidencies of 2008, 2012, and 2020. As a ministry team and family our priority is to boldly reach out to people whose hearts and lives have been broken, many who have suffered much, even losing their loved ones, during the last administration's lawless objective to maim and destroy America. We have got to bind together, united, and pray for President Trump and his team in Washington. We pray that God will continue to anoint them with the ability to restore what so many of our American brothers and sisters have tragically sacrificed as a result of greed in the wicked hearts of federal and state politicians in government leadership.
During this time of restoration, we, the people, will remain steadfast as Christians in a Christian nation that began in 1776, 250 years ago this July 2026. We have pledged, and we pledge afresh, and will continue to pledge our allegiance to Jesus Christ and "to the Republic (for which our American flag stands), one nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for ALL"... by shining The Light of God's Love to all who we come in contact with!
As unruly as things may appear to be, stemming from the lawless chaos of the former administration especially, we must keep our focus on getting wisdom, truth, and understanding from God and His Word, and allow The Holy Spirit to cleanse and heal us of the heart-break, fatigue, and harmful effects of countless offenses and intentional damages inflicted on our citizens of America. This is a historic time! We must sieze upon the opportunities we have right now for reaching others with the Love and Gospel of Jesus Christ.
"And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the Armor of Light (Romans 13:11-12)."
LET THE MIRACULOUS TESTIMONIES OF GOD'S GREATNESS BE IN OUR LIVES AND ON OUR LIPS! No matter what our adversary brings on us along the way, we will rejoice and be glad because we have "put on" Jesus Christ, Who IS the "Armor of Light".
Our wonder-full Toward The Mark family is passionate to fulfill the part God has for us to fulfill in these last days before Christ Jesus returns. Only by the Love of God in us are we able to win the hearts of those swept away in the tide of God-less-ness, even choosing to live opposite to God’s Word, Will, and Ways. Let's make it our collective goal for the coming months to reach out to and befriend as many people as possible, especially those outside of our social circles.
Let's share with other people, everywhere, our testimonies of faith in Jesus Christ as The Holy Spirit brings them to light in us. Tell them about each time when God answered our prayers, always walking and talking with us, and working things out in mysterious ways as only He does in our life. The results to come will bless both us and them, as our hearts become filled with gratitude, compelling us to offer up thanksgiving to The LORD for His very presence, for His being, and for every thing that He IS and does. ”
Let’s Celebrate our 250-Year Birthday of America shining The Light of The LORD Jesus Christ...
"For God, Who commanded The Light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give The Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 4:6)."

Remember also, "we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the Excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us (2 Corinthians 4:7)."
WATCH our "When It Comes To Sharing Your Faith" videos on the Toward The Mark INC channels online.
Thank you for hearing our hearts and our hearts’ passion for God, His written and spoken Word, and His People. We pray that this message fanned the flame in your heart to "reach for God" in greater ways than ever before.
"The LORD gave the word: great was the company of those that published it." ~Psalm 68:11
Your friends in this final hours' harvest of souls, with eternal gratitude to our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ,

& the TTM Family

VOTE

Here we are, standing at the threshold of, literally, the most important elections of our lifetime. We as Christians must pray, fast, and get involved, and we have got to encourage everyone in our lives to be involved as well. We cannot stress this enough!

       The great American Patriot John Peter Muhlenberg (in 1777) wrote, "Brethren, we came to this country to practice our religious liberties, and if we don't get involved, we're going to lose them."
Leading up to this election, the number one question we have received from our Christian brothers and sisters is, "How can I get involved and help others recognize the closest-to-godly candidates on the ballot?" With a burden to provide an effective resource to answer their call, we went into prayer and, by the leading of The Holy Spirit, have written and produced an easy to use Christian Voting Guide. Your enclosed copy offers twelve crucial points to help equip voters with key Biblical principles for choosing the closest-to-godly candidates on the ballot.
As we were in prayer about the upcoming elections, The Holy Spirit also revealed a crucially important message that, quite frankly, shook us both. "When someone knowingly votes for a political candidate who stands in opposition to God and His Word, that Voter becomes an accomplice to the decisions that politician makes as an elected official! That Voter will be held accountable to God for offenses committed against God's people throughout the time that politician is in office. The legal description of this is 'Being an accessory before the fact.'" We cannot stand idly by when we have the Truth to provide to those lacking this knowledge.
Would you join us in getting this timely resource into the hands and hearts of as many folks in your social circles as you possibly can, before the upcoming November elections? With only a short while before it's time to cast our votes, we have to act NOW!
Our supply of brochures is limited so please contact us ASAP if you would like some copies by mail. Also, a number of folks have called to request the following print files of the Voting Guide. These files are quick and easy to send and receive in e-mails, to post on your social media pages, or to use to print out copies that can be passed along to others. Please take advantage of this opportunity and resource today. The election day is just weeks away!
We must ALL get involved! "Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works." James 2:14-18.

NOTE: With your TTM Voting Guide in hand, compare itemized credentials for each candidate in your own zip code at https://home.iVoterguide.com/



  Dr. Alva Jean writes, "Dear Keith, Bren, and Team,
My staff and I received your TTM Voting Guide. I must tell you, it is the finest Christian voting guide that I've ever seen. It is well-written and leads the reader straight to the point. It doesn't mince words, and delivers a timely message for this hour we are in. I thought you would like to know that I presented copies of your guide to the pastors of our city-wide pastoral council and they raved about it! I'm forwarding the e-file to all of my pastor friends and associates as well. THANK YOU VERY MUCH."
Dr. Alva Jean Chesser, Charlotte, NC





If there has ever been a time that we must "pray without ceasing", keeping our minds stayed on Jesus Christ, it is now. As our Father has been drawing the wickedness out of the dark "hiding" places, exposing it in the LIGHT, we all must be steadfast, building up The Family of God. If we stand together in prayer for/with one another in these final hours, we keep our spiritual eyes focused on becoming One in The Lord Jesus Christ. By our keeping focused on taking "the narrow way" each and every day, we protect ourselves and everything we hold dear in The Kingdom of God from compromise by countless indulgences of this world. If we submit to The Holy Spirit's leading, He is our Best Friend and Comforter Who keeps us clean and ready to be used by God everyday, in spite of distractions and "cares of this life" all around us. Be encouraged to press through, stand strong, and reach out to those whose focus has been weakened or broken by all that is happening in the news and world today.
In the fulfillment of our Father's promises and plan for our lives, this as a most strategic season of opportunity to perform our key role in this "final harvest of souls"! Each one of us has a responsibility to "seek FIRST" our Father through our Lord Jesus Christ, by the Wonder-full Holy Spirit's lead, to work side-by-side with The Holy Trinity to step out in faith and fulfill God's call on each of our lives. We must constantly focus on stepping out in faith to fulfill our function in the Body of Christ, together as The Family of God, making our steps count as we make our way to the finish... all for our Father's Glory in the mind, heart, and lives of everyone around us and in the world.
As we in The Army of Jesus Christ find ourselves in this final push just before the great trumpet sounds, we must take our thoughts captive, practice self-control, ask The Holy Spirit to meet with us in the pages of God's Holy Word, hydrate by the Living Water of His Word, and FOCUS on His LEAD. The proper context for all of our thoughts, words, and deeds will be found in God's Word, through The Person of Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit's tutelage as we meet with Him in The Gospel Jesus Christ preached. For it is only as we put on the mind of Christ that we will be able to be transformed into His likeness, which is the reward of walking *with* Him.
Remembering who we are, Whose we are, and that it is by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that "the war is won for us already", we keep focused in this fight to everyday overcome our enemies in the spirit. In turn, we stay alert to the needs of those around us who need help to find their way. Then, when The Great Conquering King returns in ALL of His Glory with The Mighty Host of Heaven at His Side, we will bear the abundant fruit of sowing the sweet seed of God's Word into the fertile soil of people's ears and hearts everywhere. All of us have got to put our ALL in the fight to finish our work with pure Focus, Fearlessness, Love, Discipline, and every single thing we've got in us that God has given... to press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus! And don't be concerned with what the person next to you is doing; You do your job, and you do it with everything you've got, knowing in your heart that WE WILL WIN in our living Life with Christ!
Once we are in daily pursuit of becoming ONE with God, our wisdom and understanding *in Him* changes everything! Always remember that because, "Your focus on working *with God* will lead you to overcome worldly obstacles, and to inherit rewards that go far beyond your greatest expectations!" Watch and see!

From the bottom of our hearts we express how eternally grateful we are to our TTM Family of Faithful Contributors, by whose love for Jesus Christ, passion to see His Name magnified, and ongoing generosity this project is made possible. We want to also thank you for hearing the call, with us, to invest in Prayer and Voting. We would be remiss to go without offering you the opportunity to become a part of this campaign and many more projects like it. Aside from the writing, editing, and research that goes into a project like this, there are outside costs for things like printing and postage also. We invite you to prayerfully consider helping us. The opportunity to sow your seed into high-yield projects (in the spirit) is too good to not share with you. For your convenience we provide self-addressed envelopes upon request, and we also accept PayPal donations from "HERE" and from our paid TTM channels and website. All gifts are tax-deductible and very appreciated.
Our prayers are fueled with hope and expectation for fulfilling our spiritual assignments in this world, through sharing The Gospel of Jesus Christ and The Gospel Jesus Christ preached... greater than ever before!

If you have yet to invite Jesus Christ into your heart to be your Lord and Savior, or if you have allowed something or someone to come between you and God, now is your time to get right with God. Right there where you are, pray this prayer to God, then REST-ASSURED and watch what God does...

          "Dear Father God, in the precious Name of Jesus Christ, the King of kings and The LORD of all lords, I lay my life at Your Feet. I come before You, confessing that I am a sinner, and I ask for You to forgive me of all my sins - those that I know I have committed, as well as those that I am not even aware of.  I ask that You come into my heart and be my Lord. I lay my life, and everything in it, at Your Feet, and ask that You please take me and begin to change me to be like YOU. I ask that You redeem the time that has passed, and allow me the opportunity to become exactly what You have predestined me to be, from before the foundation of the earth. I commit my life to You now, and thank You for receiving me as Your own. In the wonderful Name of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, I pray, Amen."  And AMEN (So be it)!


            WELCOME HOME!

            If you have just prayed this prayer, we want to congratulate you for making the greatest decision that you'll ever make! By accepting Jesus Christ, or rededicating your life to Him, as your personal Lord and Savior, you have begun the wonder-full process of being grafted into the family of God, and we welcome you "Home" to God's Family. We would also like to invite you to contact us so that we can send you information that will help you begin growing in your relationship and daily walk with God. We would encourage you to begin attending a Holy-Spirit-filled, full-Bible focused church right away.


            We advise you to begin reading The Holy Bible daily, whether you understand it or not. Always remember, God's written Word in The Holy Bible is LIKE NO OTHER BOOK that has ever been written! When we rendezvous with The Person of The Holy Spirit as we read what God has written there, it becomes stored in our heart for The Holy Spirit to access it to bring to our remembrance.  You will find that the Scriptures will become applicable to whatever you are going through, at any given time!

            There are wonderful Bible teachers that can, especially early in your walk with God, help you to receive good teaching and encouragement right away. Though informative, those Bible-teaching programs are never to be a substitute for close relationships with people who love and serve God. At times, the transformation process that you have now begun will be difficult, and you will be tempted to go back to your old ways of living your old life. It will be during times like these that hanging out with strong Christian friends and mentors will be crucially important. There really IS strength in numbers! (Selah)

            And remember... growing in Godliness requires purity of focus, staying steadfast, immovable, and uncompromising in the faith of Jesus Christ... and now more than ever, no matter what, Keep PRESSIN' IN! You might consider using our book  LETTERS FROM THE FRONT, the special collection of keys to defeating hindrances that have kept many of God's servants from walking with the confidence and authority that Jesus Christ died to provide for us! Twelve life-changing chapters include:


;
Sin Makes Ya Stewpit!
The Cart's Before the Horse
The Crisis of Eroding Integrity
The Fruit's on the End of the Limb
Too Quick to Compromise
The Rarest of All Breeds!
Please...Stop Stinkin'
Three Keys to God-Pleasing Faith
Let It Go
Understanding the Fear of The Lord
Into the Secret Place
Give to Give


  To help you further your fight to victory through the battles that confront every one of us in these turbulent times we live in, get your copy of our book, " LETTERS FROM THE FRONT." In this collection of 12 letters written from the front lines of battle fought in the spiritual, natural, and theater of the mind, Keith's Scripture messages will build your faith and help you reach God's full potential for your life.

We would also like to invite you to contact us so that we can send you information that will help you begin growing in your relationship and daily walk with God. We would encourage you to begin attending a Holy-Spirit-filled, full-Bible focused church right away.


            We advise you to begin reading The Holy Bible daily, whether you understand it or not. Always remember, God's written Word in The Holy Bible is LIKE NO OTHER BOOK that has ever been written! When we rendezvous with The Person of The Holy Spirit as we read what God has written there, it becomes stored in our heart for The Holy Spirit to access it to bring to our remembrance.  You will find that the Scriptures will become applicable to whatever you are going through, at any given time!

            There are wonderful Bible teachers that can, especially early in your walk with God, help you to receive good teaching and encouragement right away. Though informative, those Bible-teaching programs are never to be a substitute for close relationships with people who love and serve God. At times, the transformation process that you have now begun will be difficult, and you will be tempted to go back to your old ways of living your old life. It will be during times like these that hanging out with strong Christian friends and mentors will be crucially important. There really IS strength in numbers! (Selah)

            And remember... growing in Godliness requires purity of focus, staying steadfast, immovable, and uncompromising in the faith of Jesus Christ... and now more than ever, no matter what, Keep PRESSIN' IN! You might consider using our book  LETTERS FROM THE FRONT, the special collection of keys to defeating hindrances that have kept many of God's servants from walking with the confidence and authority that Jesus Christ died to provide for us! Twelve life-changing chapters include:


;
Sin Makes Ya Stewpit!
The Cart's Before the Horse
The Crisis of Eroding Integrity
The Fruit's on the End of the Limb
Too Quick to Compromise
The Rarest of All Breeds!
Please...Stop Stinkin'
Three Keys to God-Pleasing Faith
Let It Go
Understanding the Fear of The Lord
Into the Secret Place
Give to Give


  To help you further your fight to victory through the battles that confront every one of us in these turbulent times we live in, get your copy of our book, " LETTERS FROM THE FRONT." In this collection of 12 letters written from the front lines of battle fought in the spiritual, natural, and theater of the mind, Keith's Scripture messages will build your faith and help you reach God's full potential for your life.
