A once godly nation who honored God, founded on godly principles from its beginning has become so wicked that, as Billy Graham used to thunder all over America in giant crusades, saying, “If God does not judge America for her evil, he will have to raise up Sodom and Gomorrah for to apologize for their destruction.” How much more wicked has our nation become since this preacher of righteousness warned us of our wicked ways?
Evil has increasingly gained ascendancy over good and brotherly love to the point that we have become so divided that one party seems to gloat and rejoice over the defeat of an opposing party. It’s wicked. The world is divided by so many parties. So are our churches. We seem to have forgotten that we are indeed our brother’s keeper.
I went to Washington D.C. just before the Supreme court was to take up the constitutional right of same sex marriage. I tried to speak to Obama but I was refused. I paraded up and down the corridors of the Supreme Court building in hopes of speaking to one justice that such an evil would not be acceptable in our already spiritually flagging nation. No dice. I could not speak to anyone. Same sex marriage was legalized all over America.
In this latter day of our national existence, the stronghold of evil has become so entrenched our our national psyche that we have become calloused to the deplorable spiritual condition all around us that it has had a slumbering affect on our churches. Unlike during WWII, our President does not lead the nation in prayer as FDR did in his fireside chats.
But why should our churches awake to righteousness to come together in national unity in concerned prayer for our nation. After all the division of political parties has an affect of division among our own ecclesiastical parties. “After all, unlike that bunch across town, we have a corner on God, right?”
But, why should we awake at all? Why….the rapture of the church could happen before midnight tonight. So the attitude becomes, “please don’t disturb me about all this good and evil witches brew, I have no beans in that soup.”
Sleep on church. Take thy rest. Instead of the rapture before midnight tonight, nuclear warheads would be infinitely more likely incinerating cities all over America before midnight. Neither America, China, Russia, Iran, Israel or the islands of the sea going to escape judgment when God rises up like a lion from his lair and declares, “time for repentance is past, judgment is present.”
America is going to pay the price for every act of every drag queen before out little innocent children. She is going to pay the price for ever little one butchered in the womb. She is going to pay the price for every act of sodomy, every deceit, every wicked way and every unfaithful preacher who, like Judas, sold our our Savior for a few sheckles of shame.
But never mind all of that. Just settle back on your lees, church. Your ditch is far too comfortable to be aroused to reach out and join hands in humility with others of every religious pedigree to have world-wide concert of prayer of repentance.
Prov. 29:1, “He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.” This scripture speaks of a nation too, look:
“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” (Psa 9:17)
Do you think that the prevailing powers of evil want to preserve our nation? I TROW NOT.
Do you think that the prevailing forces of evil and gross darkness want our nation to prosper and preserve freedom of worship in our churches? I TROW NOT.
Do you think that its possible for the church to escape the wrath to come to go up into the wild blue yonder and eat at a supposed marriage supper of the Lamb for seven years, to abandon the world and God’s creation to the devil? I TROW NOT.
No. As powerful as you assume that your church may be, don’t not think that it has a leg up on all things spiritual and that your denomination has a corner on God. Whatever happened to the spirit of humility?
Isa 13:11, “And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.”
There’s a new day coming. I have much to say in regards to Mal 4:1 but I will simply quote it and let it go:
“For, behold, the day cometh, that shall BURN as an oven; and all the PROUD, yea, and all that do WICKEDLY, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall BURN them up, saith the LORD of hosts, THAT IT SHALL LEAVE THEM NEITHER ROOT NOR BRANCH.”
So long PRIDEFUL. So long WICKED. So long HAUGHTY. Surely, THE DAY COMETH.
