Psalm 9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Georgia Anne Geyer writes the following… I have come to the conclusion that it is impossible to have a moral community or nation without faith in God, because without it everything rapidly comes down to “me,” and “me” alone is meaningless. Today Americans have stopped acting in terms of their own moral, ethical and religious beliefs and principles. They’ve stopped acting on what they knew was right — and the “me” has become the measure of everything. However, moral societies are the only ones that work. If anyone thinks there is not a direct and invaluable relationship between personal integrity in a society and that society’s prosperity, that person has simply not studied history. And this should not surprise us. Great moral societies, built upon faith in God, honor, trust, and the law blossom because they are harmonious; because people love or at least respect their fellowman; because, finally, they have a common belief in something beyond themselves. It simplifies life immensely; you do not waste and spend your days fighting for turf, for privilege, for money and power over your fellowman.
Alexis de Tocqueville said it best when he realized even at the very beginning of our national life, “America is great because America is good. If America ceases to be good, she will cease to be great.” I love America! At the same time, I’m deeply concerned. As a nation, we are on the wrong side of God’s word on many very important issues. We have normalized what the scripture says is an abomination. We have lost our way because we have forgotten Jesus is the way!
God intended from the very beginning for mankind to work!
Some are seeking to destroy this great nation we call America. There is a remnant of God’s people that realize the hope of America is not found in the White House, but rather in God’s house. It’s not too late, but soon it may be. Let’s take God at His word and pray!
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. We need healing! Amen. Pastor
