MEMORISE: Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving; – Colossians 4:2 (KJV)

READ: Matthew 9:35-38 (KJV)

35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Shocking Uncensored Footage Shared by Trump Sparks Controversy: A Closer Look at the Viral Video

Warning: This article contains graphic content that may be disturbing to some readers.

Donald Trump has shared violent, uncensored footage of a woman being bludgeoned to death in Florida, accompanied by a long-winded social media spray against his predecessor Joe Biden’s immigration policies.

Haitian man Rolbert Joachin – who the US Department of Homeland Security said was granted a protected visa under the Biden administration in 2022 – has been charged with first-degree murder after allegedly beating a mother with a hammer outside a gas station in Fort Myers on April 3.

Describing the horrific attack as “one of the most vicious things you will ever see,” the president shared unedited CCTV footage of the incident on Truth Social.

The surveillance video captures the moment when a woman steps outside a gas station after reportedly hearing a man vandalizing an SUV with a hammer.

In a shocking turn, the man approaches the woman and delivers multiple blows to her head with the same weapon.

Tragically, the woman was declared dead at the scene.

According to reports, the victim was from Bangladesh and had been working at a clerk at the convenience store.

“This animal was allowed to stay here because the Biden Administration granted him, and all Haitians, “Temporary Protective Status,” a massively abused and fraudulent program which my Administration is working to terminate, but Deranged Liberal District Court Judges are standing in our way,” Trump wrote.

“This one killing should be enough for these Radical Judges to STOP impeding my Administration’s Immigration Policies, and allow us to END THIS SCAM ONCE AND FOR ALL.”

The Biden administration offered legal protections for hundreds of thousands of immigrants under a temporary visa program.

Homeland Security alleges Joachin’s Temporary Protected Status expired in 2024.

The department revoked the temporary visa status for people from the four countries last year, warning that they would lose any legal right to work in the US from April 2025.

Trump went on to accuse Biden of turning the US into a “dumping ground” for immigrants.

“Allowing Tens of MILLIONS of Criminals, Lunatics, and the Mentally Insane from all over the World to pour into our Country, totally unvetted and unchecked through our wide Open Borders,” he added.

“As I’ve said all along, if you import the Third World, you become the Third World, and that is what happened over the four years of Democrat Control. We are rapidly trying to reverse this decline through Deportations, but if the Democrats are ever given another chance at power, they will immediately REOPEN the Border, and allow America to once again be a Safe Haven for Criminals.”

The president vowed “quick and severe justice” for the victim’s family.

He went on to warn against watching the footage, despite sharing it to Truth Social unblurred and in full.

“I don’t recommend you watch this tape, because it is so terrible, but felt I had an obligation to put it up so that people can see what Democrats are protecting, and wanting to come into our Country, even now, after all we’ve been through,” Trump wrote.

“Again, viewer discretion advised – Not for children!”

DCLM Daily Manna 10 April 2026 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — What A Question!

TOPIC: What A Question! (DCLM Daily Manna 10 April 2026)

KEY VERSE: Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David – Matthew 22:42

TEXT: Matthew 22:41-46 (KJV)

41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

42 Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David.

43 He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

44 The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

46 And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:

In 2016, the world witnessed an event that stunned global intellectual and political circles: the unexpected outcome of the US presidential election. Pundits, pollsters, and seasoned analysts had confidently predicted one result, only for reality to overturn their calculations. The shock exposed a truth often overlooked by the world’s elite: even the sharpest minds can misjudge the forces at play.

A similar moment unfolds in our passage. The Pharisees – religious scholars, legal experts, and the intellectual elite of their time – had spent the day challenging Jesus with intricate theological and legal traps. Yet, with a single question, Christ dismantled their assumptions, exposing the limits of their understanding. The question He asked was not merely an intellectual puzzle but a revelation of divine mystery – “What think ye of Christ? Whose son is he?” They responded with certainty: “The Son of David.” It was the expected answer, drawn from prophetic Scriptures. But Jesus pressed further: “How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?”

The logic was inescapable. If the Messiah was merely David’s son, why did David himself call Him Lord? The Pharisees, men trained in theological argumentation, were left speechless. The passage concludes with a striking statement: “And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.” Christ’s question shattered their limited framework. They had confined the Messiah to human lineage and earthly rule, but Jesus revealed a greater reality: He was not just David’s descendant but David’s Lord.

Everybody from all occupations – academics, policy makers, thought leaders, and influencers – must answer this question at some point in their lives. In an age where human intelligence and expertise are exalted above any other consideration, we must confront an uncomfortable truth: knowledge alone does not lead to ultimate wisdom. Today, scholars no doubt dissect theology, leaders shape nations, and innovators push boundaries; yet, without Christ, all wisdom is vain. The question remains relevant: What think ye of Christ? Is He just a historical figure, a moral teacher, or the Lord of all, including your own Lord and Saviour? The response is all yours to give.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
The best of earthly wisdom is far from being a match for divine wisdom.

Rhapsody Of Realities 10 April 2026: Rich In Christ

Rhapsody Of Realities 10 April 2026 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): Rich In Christ

TOPIC: Rich In Christ (Rhapsody of Realities 10 April 2026)

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich (2 Corinthians 8:9).

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

The Word of God is clear: poverty is not from God; therefore, you should never accept the message of poverty. Poverty is inconsistent with our divine nature and heritage in Christ. The Bible shows clearly that the Lord Jesus became poor, in contrast to His true wealth, for one purpose: that you might become rich.

That’s what we read in our opening scripture. It wasn’t referring to spiritual riches; the Lord Jesus was never poor spiritually. The context is financial and material blessings. He laid aside all that belonged to Him so that through His substitutionary work, you would come into prosperity and financial abundance.

Some may say that God isn’t interested in making His children rich, but the Word already declares His will. In Christ, you’re an heir of God. All things are yours. Some may choose not to enjoy them, but they should never claim that poverty is God’s plan. The blessing of God brings prosperity, supply, and supernatural advantage.

Let’s for a moment review and ponder the magnitude of what belongs to us, our riches in Christ, as stated in Ephesians 3:8. Paul, by the Spirit, writes, “To me, though I am the very least of all the saints (God’s consecrated people), this grace (favor, privilege) was granted and graciously entrusted: to proclaim to the Gentiles the unending (boundless, fathomless, incalculable, and exhaustless) riches of Christ [wealth which no human being could have searched out]” (AMPC).

Our riches are unsearchable, beyond quantification, exhaustless, boundless, and incalculable. This is the kind of wealth you’ve been called to enjoy. It’s Kingdom wealth—superior to earthly economics—and it’s yours now in Christ Jesus. Therefore, refuse to think lack. Refuse to talk scarcity. Live with the consciousness of your divine inheritance.

Every so often, say to yourself, “I have unsearchable riches in Christ. All things are mine. I walk in abundance, and I give lavishly into the Gospel for the advancement of the Kingdom.” Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the unsearchable riches of Christ that belong to me. I walk in divine supply, abundance, and I’m empowered to give, to bless, and to cause the Gospel to spread everywhere. I reject lack and embrace the fullness of your provision, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

1 Corinthians 3:21-23 (KJV) Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; [22] Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; [23] And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

Ephesians 3:8 (GNT) I am less than the least of all God’s people; yet God gave me this privilege of taking to the Gentiles the Good News about the infinite riches of Christ,

Galatians 3:29 (KJV) And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

DIVINE HEALTH CONFESSIONS – 10TH APRIL 2026

Divinity is at work in me from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet. I thank the Lord for this great grace that I lavishly enjoy. God’s stamp and seal of perfection are on me, certifying my health, success, and victory. I am strong, full of energy, and radiant with the beauty and glory of God.

Keep saying it, don’t stop talking it! Remember, you can make your way prosperous with words. Get talking today!

Remember to share with all your friends and loved ones today. Thank you and God bless you richly.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Set to Tie the Knot: Exclusive Details on Date and Venue

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are preparing for a grand wedding celebration this summer.

Sources reveal that the acclaimed singer, 36, and the NFL star, also 36, are set to exchange vows in New York on July 3.

Insiders mention that invitees were required to submit a signed non-disclosure agreement along with their RSVPs when they received the save-the-date cards, aiming to maintain secrecy around the event.

Despite Swift recently donning bridal-themed attire in New York City, the couple, including the Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end, reportedly feels let down by the leak of details but does not intend to take legal action.

Although the precise location of the ceremony remains a mystery, it is rumored to be held in a venue resembling a large arena or a museum.

The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Swift and Kelce for comment.

Taylor Swift, 36, and Travis Kelce, 36, are gearing up for a lavish summer wedding. The Daily Mail can confirm that the pair will say ‘I do’ in New York on July 3; They are seen in March

The location comes as a surprise as fans had previously speculated whether the highly-anticipated wedding would be taking place at Swift’s $17 million Rhode Island mansion.

However, Swift has long-standing ties to New York.

She bought two neighboring penthouses in Tribeca in 2014, later combining them into one expansive duplex. Since then, she has also bought the townhouse next door and a 3,500-square-foot loft in the same building.

The superstar also wrote an ode to the city with her 2014 hit song Welcome to New York.

In 2016, she rented a townhouse on Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village, later naming a track Cornelia Street on her 2019 album Lover.

Swift is often spotted around New York City, dining at restaurants with her famous friends.

Sources previously said preparations are very much underway, and that Swift has already made specific demands about what she wants her big day to look like.

‘It will take place someplace indoors,’ one insider shared.

While the exact venue of their nuptials remains undisclosed, it’s said to be an arena or museum-like space; The pair seen in New York City in 2025

According to a source, the power couple’s guests were required to RSVP with a signed NDA when save-the-dates were sent out, in an effort to keep wedding details under wraps

The singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end are said to be ‘disappointed’ that the information has leaked

The location comes as a surprise as fans had previously speculated whether the highly-anticipated wedding would be taking place at Swift’s $17 million Rhode Island mansion (pictured)

A source previously claimed that Swift wants her wedding to be ‘indoors’ not like her best pal Selena Gomez’s, which was held inside of white tents outdoors (pictured)

‘Taylor doesn’t want it to be like Selena’s wedding,’ the insider continued, referring to the recent nuptials of the pop star’s best friend Selena Gomez – who wed Benny Blanco in white marquees outdoors at the Sea Crest Nursery in Santa Barbara, California, last September.

It is understood the worry is that privacy couldn’t be properly ensured at an outdoor venue.

The ‘whole thing will be recorded’ so that the newlyweds can look back on their big day, according to our first source, who suggested Swift may wish to share some moments with fans.

Both insiders also confirmed that the reception will be ‘big,’ as Swift herself revealed on The Graham Norton Show last October while promoting her latest album The Life of a Showgirl.

Sitting on Norton’s famous red sofa, Swift described the wedding as ‘huge’ and said she was ‘so excited about it’ because ‘the only stressful weddings are the ones where you have a small amount’.

She said having fewer guests often means you ‘have to evaluate or assess your relationship’ with friends.

‘I’m not gonna do that,’ she added, before joking: ‘Anyone I’ve ever talked to [is getting an invitation].’

Aside from the couple’s respective families, Kelce’s teammate Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany Mahomes are expected to attend, as well as Gomez and Blanco.

Swift previously described the wedding as ‘huge’ on The Graham Norton Show last October, and said that ‘anyone I’ve ever talked to [is getting an invitation]’

Kelce popped the question to Swift last summer after two years together; They are seen in New York City in 2024

But it will surprise no one that Swift’s BFF-turned-enemy Blake Lively is unlikely to receive an invite, our sources said.

We’re also told that while Swift has seemingly put the months of drama with the It Ends With Us actress behind her – after being dragged into the latter’s legal saga with Justin Baldoni – Swift and Lively, 38, are still not as close as they once were.

Kelce popped the question to Swift last summer after two years together in an intimate and romantic proposal held in the backyard of his Kansas mansion.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Swift wrote: ‘Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.’

Swift has previously dated Joe Alwyn, Taylor Lautner, Harry Styles, Jake Gyllenhaal and Tom Hiddleston, while Kelce was in a long-term relationship with YouTuber Kayla Nicole.

Council Employees Advocate for Four-Day Work Week Amid Rising Fuel Costs

In Brief

A union representing council workers has proposed a four-day working week amid the fuel crisis.
It says workers are struggling to keep up with extra fuel costs.

NSW council employees are at the forefront in advocating for a four-day work week in response to a severe fuel and energy crisis, which some are saying surpasses the previous two crises combined.

The United Services Union (USU) has brought forward a new proposal to the NSW Industrial Relations Commission (IRC) today. The proposal emphasizes the need for enhanced job protections and greater flexibility to support its members amidst the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The USU, which represents approximately 25,000 local government workers across NSW and the ACT, reports that nearly half of its members are facing challenges commuting to work due to the escalating fuel prices.

Since the onset of the fuel crisis in March, the USU conducted a survey involving 1,293 council workers. Results indicated that 72 percent have cut back on personal activities to save on fuel expenses, while 70 percent felt that company allowances did not sufficiently cover these rising costs.

The survey also revealed that 40 percent of respondents are spending at least an additional $50 weekly on petrol, with 20 percent incurring over $100 more each week.

The union has asked the IRC to lock in work-from-home rights, and for a 50 per cent increase in fuel subsidies.

“Last week we wrote to all 128 councils in NSW asking them to look at work-from-home provisions for staff who are able to, and for consideration of four-day weeks for those who cannot,” USU head of legal Daniel Papps said.

“Since then we have seen no change in the situation in the Middle East and so now we are ramping up our efforts on behalf of our members to make sure they’re not carrying the impact of this crisis.”

Papps said the union had suggested a four-day work week be considered for staff who can’t work from home.

“That might mean they work an extra few hours each day, but save themselves one daily commute,” he said.

“This is important for our regional members who sometimes drive 100 kilometres back and forth to work each day, and our members in the city who struggle with hour-long commutes to and from work.”

The proposed Local Government (Fuel Crisis) Splinter Award 2026 could benefit up to 55,000 council workers in roles ranging across road construction and garden maintenance; to positions in libraries, swimming pools and call centres.

“It’s my hope we’ll be able to come up with a series of measures and relief for workers across NSW to deal with the emerging and continuing fuel crisis,” Papps said.

He called for a sober discussion between workers and their bosses over measures that could be put in place to conserve fuel so people can save money and keep fuel for the people who need it most, such as truckies and farmers.

Many countries in the Asia Pacific region rely on fuel that travels through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has blocked for the past month after US strikes on the country. International Energy Agency director Fatih Birol described the resulting global fuel shortage as the worse than the previous Gulf wars and Russia’s war on Ukraine combined.

To conserve resources, government workers in the Philippines have moved to a four-day work week, while Sri Lanka has declared each Wednesday a public holiday.

In Australia, the USU is expected to appear before the commission for further negotiations next Friday.

“We’ll have some preliminary discussions with the employers in between now and Friday to get a sense of what they’re looking for. But our hope is that we’re able to come to a sensible compromise by next week,” Papps said.

Robert MacIntyre’s Fiery Reaction Caught on Camera During Dramatic Masters Round

As the Masters unfolded, many golfers felt a pang of empathy watching Robert MacIntyre’s struggle on the notorious 15th hole on Thursday.

Ranked as the world’s No. 8, MacIntyre faced a challenging moment when his ball found the water hazard twice on Augusta National’s 15th hole during the tournament’s opening round. Frustration got the better of him, leading to a candid moment caught on camera as he gestured his displeasure with a middle finger aimed at his misbehaving ball.

This unfortunate turn led to a quadruple-bogey nine on the 15th, marking a rough start for MacIntyre at the Masters.
