Today the same situations can be replaced with yes. A great starting point would be with discipline and holding children accountable for their actions. Today’s children are smart but do not know the true picture as to how this nation was started by the founding fathers. In the eighteen hundreds children had to take a test twice a year in middle and high school on the Constitution, Declaration of Independence, the Ten Commandments and prayer. Separation of church and state have added insult to injury. Don’t say Merry Christmas, remove the Ten Commandments from our court houses, remove “In God we trust” from currency and we will not find Christ on Christmas cards.
The name Jesus Christ is important only when we are in trouble. But, I declare Jesus is the one we cannot afford to live without. There is no other name under the sun by who man can be saved. Jesus is not a part-time lover. Most Americans have stopped fighting their battle of their knees. All too often Americans’ are not trusting in God and leaving the consequences up to him. God does not require us to understand his will just obey it.
This nation is suffering destruction of the family. This is what is happening in America. We have exploited the poor and call it the lottery. We reward laziness and call it welfare. We kill our unborn and call it choice. We have shot abortionist and call it justifiable. We neglect disciplining children and call it self-esteem. We abuse power and call it politics. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and call it freedom of expression.
If we want God’s healing we must accept his prescription. May the Lord be with you and your spirit.
