Often time it is said about our country, “Look how far we have come.” It breaks my heart to think how far we have fallen. The Devil is fast at work in keeping the Word of God out of the mainstream of our country and off of Main Street as well. The fall of America can be traced back to America falling away from God. President George Washington's words are being lived out before us, "It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible."
So, my friends, here we are as a nation that can be likened to a ship that is taking on water. Once proud and mighty, a light that shone like a blast furnace around the world. We were blessed by the hand of Almighty God. Our natural resources were plentiful. Our exports were abundant. Our minds were cutting edge when it came to machinery and ingenuity. We were blessed. Hard work was the norm as we were well acquainted with sweat and callouses. The freedom that was exercised in coming up with a good plan or business idea and knowing the fruit of such a venture was the American way. We recognized the One True God. We sent missionaries to faraway lands preaching and proclaiming the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul led of the Holy Spirit wrote, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth to the Jew first and also to the Greek” (Roman 1:16). America wasn’t ashamed of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. There was a genuine fear of God and a desire and reverence for His Word. Woven through the very fabric of the foundation of this nation was godly principles. We didn’t dare exclude God, but men in authority would seek the face of God and search the Word of God. Humble in prayer while longing for heavenly direction from the King of kings.
Now- we kill babies at an alarming rate and protect animals. We need a brokenness about the state of our nation. We will be broken because a sport team didn’t win the championship. We don’t give a second thought about our nation drowning in a cesspool of sin. We will moan and mope about the most trivial things, but we give no thought to our nation spitting in the face of Almighty God. God is nothing more than a running joke for the late night comedians to poke fun at. We have become more and more resolved in our hatred of that which is moral and right. We laugh at adultery and accept fornication. We actually have to vote on same sex marriage. We cling to sin like an animal feeding off a carcass. Hard work and pride in a job well done has been replaced with video games and day time television mixed in with government handouts (I am speaking of the men of our nation.) If you are a Christian, you are portrayed as bigoted, mean spirited, and cold hearted and fanatical if you believe in the God of the Bible and His Word. When the born again say, thus saith the Lord when it comes to being born again and how to get to heaven they are told they are narrow minded, foolish and a fanatic.
I find it amazing that in America the agenda of so few has had an effect on so many. Why is this? Pulpits grew silent and thus man grew distant from God. Consider this thought In regard to the word of God- Compromise is an easy street that leads to the back alley of the wrong side of the truth every time. My friend, America has had a climate change, but not what we read about in the paper or internet or that which we hear from the many so called experts on the various news channels. The climate change in America is spiritual. We have turned Away from Almighty God & His Word.
Lets pray for America!
