Deuteronomy 4:7 – 7 What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we pray to him?
The verse is from Moses to the Israelites, but has history proven the verse to be correct?
Our nation is a shell of what it was not all that long ago.
We’re kicking God out of our schools. That must mean He was in there at one time. He was, and the Bible was even part of the reading before Satan got a foothold in the system. America was its most prosperous when it acknowledged Israel and offered support. The Churches were full and there was still a conscience in the masses concerning a morality based on God’s Word.
In the Church, take a look around in America. After the youth take off for college the age group of 19 to 35 even up to 40 anymore is pretty scarce. The world is teaching me, me, me. God’s Word is teaching Him, Him, Him. If I we love and obey Him, He in return takes care of us.
When a country gets away from God, it loses its blessing, its strength. England was mighty not all that long ago. During that time it sought God. Don’t mistake seeking God and man being a swell guy as being the same thing. Man has always been a mess since the fall in the Garden of Eden. What God wants is for the leadership and the people to seek Him as a nation. As individuals He wants this from all of us.
We are not a humble people as a whole in this country anymore. God wants humble people to repent and pray to Him. He wants us to pray to heal our land and He would.
2 Chronicles 7:14 – 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
If one is paying attention to the powers leading this country, they are doing everything in their power to remove God from anywhere near its leadership.
The Lord sees all and is in charge. A day is coming when He will call His Church up to Heaven. Then those who have been fighting for God to be removed from all leadership will have it their way for awhile.
At that time we’ll see how well the atheists do in trying to keep morality when there will be no one here to even support what morality even means. We’ll see how those who are fighting Christianity tooth and nail today handle themselves when Islam starts giving them ultimatums.
In the meantime we need to pray unceasingly, seek God, die to ourselves, spread the Good News, and keep looking for Jesus. There is a Crown of Righteousness for those who are.
2 Timothy 4:8 – 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
