America, consider your ways, as a people you are looking for government to provide what God has withheld. As a nation we have turned our backs on Him and tried to be our own provider. Frustration and futility are the corrective disciplines of God.
 
Who is left among us who saw the country in its former glory? How do you see it now? Does it not seem to you like nothing in comparison?
 
Even in today's circumstances the Lord of hosts, says take courage and work for "I am with you;--- My Spirit is abiding in your midst; do not fear."
 
The Spirit of the Lord is with us when we follow Him in wholehearted obedience. We have the reassurance of the empowerment of the Spirit when we choose to work with Him on the building of His house here on earth.
 
We cannot provide a rebirth of individual virtue based on moral character, only God can stir up the spirit of the remnant of His people still living in the land.
 
Holiness characterizes the entire life of God's people- private, personal, public, cultural and as a nation.
 
The Spirit comes not only to renew human life from within but also this sanctifying renewal spreads to the full range of human activities and the society at large. There is no limit to the operation of the Holy Spirit!
 
Hence we should be humble and pray for the renewal of the Spirit in America for when we are unified in Spirit with God all things are possible through Him. Men are imperfect and power corrupts. It is only with humility before God that we learn to lead, and through knowledge of our ignorance that we learn to seek the truth. 

 

God specifically says that "If My people who are called by My name humble them-selves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." "but if you turn away and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you and shall go and serve other gods and worship them, then I will uproot you from My land which I have given you, -----and everyone who pasted by it will be astonished and say, Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house?" and They will say why have you despised the word of the Lord, the God of your fathers, by doing evil in His sight? Why have you removed yourself from God's blessings by totally disregarding His commands, even removing them from the court houses of your land?

 

Wither we choose to try and follow the Ten Commandments or totally remove them from our society God still has a purpose and a calling for this nation. Which one is it? That we should be known as a former Christian nation that was once the greatest nation on earth with intelligent strong and wealthy people until they turned their backs on God. Or, Could it not be that the purpose is that we live and witness and serve as a people of God reflecting the great spiritual heritage of our ancestors.

 

Be humble; let the rectitude of your intentions be made know with your declaration of independence from the laws of man knowing that you will stand before the judgment seat of God the Supreme Judge of the world. Join with our founding fathers, humble men who declared that "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" as citizens of the United States of America we should work like the life of our country depends upon following the Ten Commandments, and pray continually for God's mercy. With a declaration of faith in Jesus Christ we are free from the laws of man but forever we shall remain under the simple laws of the God of all creation.

 

The 10 commandments come from Exodus 20:1-17. Here are the verses:

 

And God spoke all these words, saying: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

  1. You shall have no other gods before me.
     
  2. You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
     
  3. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.
     
  4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.
     
  5. Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.
     
  6. You shall not murder.
     
  7. You shall not commit adultery.
     
  8. You shall not steal.
     
  9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
     

10.  You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

 

The above commandments need no explanation. They mean exactly what they say.

 

The awareness of the Ten Commandments in your heart, soul, mind and strength of your being will engineer a new way of life when you accept by faith that Jesus Christ was sent by GOD that your sins would be forgiven.

 

THE MOST REAL FACT IN THIS UNIVERSE IS GOD. The whole creation bears witness to His presence. The sunlight that floods the earth, the glories of the firmament, night and day, winter, spring, and fall declare that the Creator is everywhere in His world. The rose that is blooming one morning in my garden, with colors more delicate that the brush of a turner can paint, indicates that the great Artist was there. The laughter of children, the love of friends, and the upward march of the races of men proclaim that God is about us and within us richly imparting His grace. The unsatisfied aspiration of the heart, its pain, its joy, its thoughts too deep for words tell us how near God is.

 

Therefore, we should all pray as everything depends on God the Father, Jesus Christ His son and the Holy Spirit for life and guidance. The Lord is the Spirit and where the Lord is, there is Liberty. Our nation’s founders knew that no man is perfect that only through God's grace do we have liberty!

 

My continued prayer as an individual and for my nation is break me, Lord, Until I am wholly yours and Renew your spirit within!   For through you and to you are all things, and my sole desire is to bring you glory. Let your Spirit be my guide and our guide as a nation.

 

God Bless the United States of America, One Nation Under God Indivisible with Liberty and Justice for All.

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
