Your Car Should Always Have These 7 Items

On By The.Daily.ChristianIn end times prepper, survival, Survival Prepper, SurvivalistLeave a comment

Every emergency situation happens when you least expect it.

Imagine you’re coming back from work after a long Friday

You are thinking about how you’re going to spend the weekend with your family

When bam! You hear a heavy noise and your car begins to shake. Flat tire.

And just your luck, it’s pouring rain outside. Are you ready for this kind of situation?

Having a well-stocked car can be a real lifesaver when emergencies arise.

I want to give you the 7 essentials that every car should have to handle unexpected situations like a champ.

1) Spare tire, jack, and lug wrench

A flat tire can happen at any time. And trust me, you don’t want to be caught without what you need to repair it.

Make sure you have a spare tire, a jack, and a lug wrench in your car at any time.

2) Jumper cables

Dead batteries are a common concern. Sometimes it’s just a matter of giving your car a little jumpstart.

Having a good set of jumper cables in your trunk will ensure you can return to the road quickly.

3) First-aid kit

A solid first-aid kit will assist you with minor injuries for yourself and your loved ones.

4) Flashlight and batteries

Whether it’s a nighttime flat tire or a quick look under the hood, having a reliable flashlight with additional batteries will make everything easier during unexpected situations.

5) Emergency blankets and warm clothing

If you spend the night in your car, emergency blankets are essential for avoiding hypothermia. Especially in cold weather.

Everyone should have a few lightweight blankets in their cars.

6) Non-perishable food and water

Keep some non-perishable snacks and water in your car to ensure you will remain safe in case you’re stranded for an extended period.

7) Portable charger

Keeping your cellphone charged is essential for calling for aid and accessing valuable information.

A portable charger can be a lifesaver if your car battery fails, and you can’t charge your cellphone through the usual means.

So there you have it, folks.

A well-stocked car can make an incredible difference in emergency situations.

Take some time to gather these essentials and keep them in your vehicle.

Trust me, you’ll thank yourself when the unexpected happens.

Don’t Make This Post-Emergency Mistake

On By The.Daily.ChristianIn Food stockpiling, SHFT, Survival PrepperLeave a comment

What’s the number 1 thing most people want to do once an emergency situation has passed?

If you guessed returning to their houses, you’re spot on.

Everyone will feel that incredible urge to survey the damage, to begin picking up the pieces, and to reclaim what was theirs.

But there’s something that we need to remember.

Giving in to this urge is the single most dangerous mistake we could make after an emergency.

You will see why in a sec.

Emergencies are not over when the storm passes, the ground is not shaking, or the flames die down.

The aftermath is just as deadly.

Collapsed buildings, live electrical wires, gas escapes, contaminated water

The potential hazards lurking could be numerous and lethal.

And let’s not forget the ones who try to take advantage of such times

Your once peaceful neighborhood can transform into a perilous landscape, brimming with threats.

I know that you’ll probably want to rush back and start rebuilding. I feel the same way.

But my answer?

There’s a time and a place for everything, folks, and rushing back to a hazard zone is not it.

When local authorities provide your clearance, that’s your signal.

Then you can move as quickly as possible to assess everything and figure out your next step.

Also, during emergency situations, the world is different than what we’re used to.

And there are some hazards that we might not be aware of yet.

So if a real SHTF scenario happens, let us resist the impulse to head back at the first signs of calm.

This is not the time for hasty decisions or unnecessary risks.

Prepping isn’t just about weathering the storm, it’s about navigating the aftermath wisely.

Don’t compromise the progress you’ve made by hastily returning to risky situations.

Your house can be rebuilt.

Your family’s safety will always be more important.

Post-apocalyptic currency

On By The.Daily.ChristianIn Christians, Survival Prepper, SurvivalistLeave a comment

As much as I hate to say it

The dollar, like the current US military, is losing its value around the world.

I remember when the American currency, as well as the military, used to be proud.

A global leader.

But not anymore, folks.

Inflation is on the rise. And we are currently going through a tough US recession.

And yet, experts say it’s nothing compared to what’s coming.

There could be a time when our wallets are as good as empty.

If that time comes, we have to be ready.

And think outside of the box.

If the world goes to an end of times scenario, and everyone struggles to meet their basic needs, how can we ensure we have food to eat and a roof over our heads?

Well, how did our ancestors do it?

By trading valuable goods and services.

When we talk about bartering, most people think of precious metals, ammunition, or medication as the leading currency.

And while that’s true, there are some humbler and underrated everyday items that will become invaluable in times of need.

Matches, for example.

We take them for granted these days. But in a post-apocalyptic world, the ability to build a fire can mean the difference between a hot meal and going hungry.

So stocking up on waterproof matches? Not a bad idea.

Next up, hygiene products. In extended emergencies, cleanliness can be the first casualty.

Simple items like soap, toothpaste, or sanitary products can suddenly skyrocket in importance, not just for comfort but for health.

An infection in an emergency situation? Not on my watch.

Another underrated example is seeds. Yes, those tiny things we plant in our gardens.

The ability to grow your own food can be a lifesaver.

And, of course, skills will be as valuable as items.

Knowing how to mend clothes, repair tools, or even basic first aid? That knowledge can make you indispensable in a pinch.

My advice? Take a moment to reconsider the value of what’s around you.

Begin collecting a few essential items.

Not just for your use,

But as potential barter material.

Remember, in challenging times, it’s often the little things that make the biggest difference.

Let’s keep an eye on the details, folks.

Imagine this chilling scenario unfolding before your very eyes:

The emergency alarms blare, indicating a dire situation.

A government official, closely tied to the current administration, barges into your sanctuary, demanding access to your hard-earned stockpile.

Your carefully accumulated supplies are loaded into their bag, and they start distributing them among neighbors, including those who once mocked the idea of a disaster ever occurring.

It sounds like a nightmare straight out of a dystopian novel or a page from a history book on communist regimes.

But believe it or not, due to Executive Order 13603, recently signed into effect by the Dems, this frightening reality is happening in America right now.

Under this executive order, the government has the authority to seize and redistribute YOUR essential resources, including food, water, and other vital supplies.

However, there is hope.

A survival expert has shared a 30-second “stockpile hack“

That can effectively block the government from laying hands on your carefully curated gear.

This invaluable information is a game-changer for every prepper out there.

Don’t delay! Watch the expert’s short video, especially the crucial segment at 3 minutes and 54 seconds, to safeguard your stockpile and protect your family’s well-being.

Outsmart the government by securing your stockpile.

Remember, knowledge is power, and the time to act is now.

Share this vital information with your fellow preppers before it’s too late.

God bless you for reading this, and please keep your family safe!

Does Your Family Refuse To Prep? Try This

On By The.Daily.ChristianIn Americans, politics, Survival Prepper, SurvivalistLeave a comment

I’ve heard the same thing many times…

“I want to convince my family to prep with me, but they just don’t want to cooperate.”

If this happens in your household as well, I have some good news…

There is a simple way to fix that.

Preparing for emergencies is not something easy.

If you don’t have your family’s support, then you will most likely burn out.

You simply can’t do everything yourself.

But how can you convince your loved ones to take their survival seriously?

Shouldn’t that be the first ones to care about that, anyway?

Well, as it turns out…no.

Psychologists have repeatedly talked about this.

It is very common for humans to neglect their own safety.

But it is extremely rare for someone to ignore their loved ones’ safety.

This is the reason that people neglect to take their medication so often.

But no one ever forgets to give their dogs their medication, for example.

People value their loved one’s safety more than their own.

It’s quite a paradox…

But this is what happens.

And you can use that paradox to convince your family to take control of their survival.

How?

Well, it’s in the way you communicate with them.

Don’t make prepping about them.

Make it about the whole family.

If you talk to your partner, explain to him or her that it is for their children’s safety.

If you talk to your children, show them how they can help their parents.

You will instantly see a shift in how they view prepping.

They will be happy to assist you with whatever you need.

This might be manipulative to some…

But what is wrong with helping someone take control of their survival?

A lot of people nowadays put way too much trust in the government.

When SHTF, however, the government might not be on our side.

There could be a time when we have to do everything ourselves.

When that time comes, we have to be ready.

Prepping is necessary to survive these times.

So don’t let your family take their survival for granted.

Use this simple method to convince them to start preparing.

Survival Prepper: How To Make A Rocket Stove

On By The.Daily.ChristianIn Preppers, Survival Prepper, SurvivalistLeave a comment

One of the biggest ‘AHA’ moments I’ve had learning about survival is when I learned about the Rocket stove from a tree stump. If you’re at all interested in survival, you need to learn about this simple trick. It may very well save your life someday.

If you are in an emergency situation and need a really easy-to-make stove, look no further than a hollow tree stump.

Before we get started, I’ll list out the items needed for this amazing life hack!

Items Needed:

  1. Hollow Tree Stump
  2. 1 – 1.5 Spade Bit
  3. Drill
  4. Fire Starter

While you may not have an abundance of hollow tree stumps, chances are you’ll be able to find one if you really are in a survival situation.

Start out by drilling a hole through the top of the stump with your 1.5 spade bit attached to your drill. to act as a chimney and then drill another hole from the side to aid in airflow. The most important factor in this process is having a good dry stump, a drill powerful enough to drill a large diameter hole, and a large diameter bit long enough (5-6 inches) to make connecting holes in your stump making an “L” shape.

Now that you’ve made your stove, grab your kindling wood or your fire starter, light the wood and place it in the second hole to start your fire. There is no need to add more wood, it will burn by itself, and will easily last a couple of hours.
