I resolve to pray more and complain less.
We are told
in Hebrews 4:12 that the word of God is living and powerful (alive and active),
piercing even to diving soul and spirit, joints and marrow, and that it judges
the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Did you ever wonder what would happen if Christians put aside their own
ideas and traditions, and began memorizing and reciting scripture? Would the Bible regain authority in
America? We cannot deny that God’s word
has not only lost authority, but it is regarded with disdain, mocked, and denied.
It is a real
problem in America that the church even agree. It should never be the Baptists against the
Pentecostals, and the non-denominational believers against the Church of Christ
believers. We are all the body of Christ,
and it is vitally important that we come together as one. Let me say that again: We MUST come together as one to combat the
evil that is spreading in our country like the fast growing cancer it is!
We want Americans to come together
and
accept each other’s differences,
Christians must do that all the more!
The general
consensus among Christians is that America is going to hell in a hand-basket. If we remain on the road we are currently
traveling, no doubt America as we know it will be destroyed. It does not have to be this way! The God we serve is a forgiving God, and He is merciful. It is my belief that America is still
standing because there are praying people here…and there are nations under
great bondage who have persecuted Christians praying for us. Yes, that’s the truth.
I urge you to
make your own individual walk with God stronger. Draw close to Him, allow Him to draw close to
you. Make a real effort to read your
Bible more. Make an even bigger effort to memorize scripture and recite…out loud…scripture. Words are important. With words, Heaven and earth were formed, and the
universe was spoken into existence. The Word, His words…speak them out, often and confidently.
If we really
want to make America great again, we need to seek Him first…the rest will fall
into place. That, my friends, is the
really good news.
If you’d like a suggestion on a verse
to memorize…start with this one:
Awake, you who sleep,
Arise from the dead,
And Christ will give you light.
Arise from the dead,
And Christ will give you light.
Ephesians 4:14
