Where Are We Going????

In its beginnings, this nation was a nation of hopes, dreams, and obedience to God. In our early days, we remained that way. We knew that we were blessed because we obeyed God; certainly we had our rogues, who did things without any regard to observing God’s law but they were usually nonentities.


As we began to prosper, ever so slightly, we began to change. Around the mid-1950s this nation was going great guns. World War II and Korea were over; Vietnam had not begun yet. We were experiencing unparalleled prosperity and were on our way to becoming the world’s greatest superpower.


However tiny little glitches began to show up in the armor.
  • Materialistic pursuits became more important spiritual pursuits
  • We took prayer out of schools
  • We took the Bible out of the schools
  • We are teaching evolution instead of creation
  • Abortion became legal; we have killed more than 50 million babies
  • We are teaching birth control instead of abstinence in schools
  • Many states have passed pro-gay marriage amendments
  • Banks are no longer run on integrity
  • Wall Street is now one of the world’s most successful thieves
  • Parents have begun to stop teaching their children the right way
  • Courts have been making laws in instead of interpreting them
  • Presidents abuse their powers excessively
  • Candidates for office no longer tell the truth or deliver their promises


We need to learn the spiritual dynamics happening here. God wants you to yield to Him so that His power and blessings can be released in you. Satan wants you to yield to him so that destruction and death can be released and you. In order to gain an inroad, the enemy is constantly trying to scare you with bitterness, unforegivness, and ungodliness of all kinds. Therefore, no matter what you do, you are either obeying God or Satan. You are either submitting to God and His influence or to Satan and his influence. Every time you act, you are releasing spiritual power; either God’s or the devil’s into your life. Since most people are ignorant of this truth,  they allow all kinds of things in their life. Yet, if they were to recognize the results that they are going to reap, they would never allow these things.


So let’s go back for a moment.
  • We are either obeying God or Satan
  • Satan wants you to obey him so he can release death and destruction in you
  • Every action releases spiritual power; God’s or Satan’s
  • Most people whether in business, government, education, or religion are ignorant of this fact


 if we are to believe the above, which I do without question, then we must conclude that our corporations, educational systems, medical facilities, courts, government bodies, and banks-just to name a few-are operating under the influence of Satan. Because if they were operating in obedience to God, then God would still be in the public domain, there would be no abortion, gay marriage would not be on the ballots, we would not be handing out condoms in our schools. Furthermore, the banks and Wall Street would be institutions of honor instead of disgrace. Corporations would operate in the best interest of their workers, consumers, and shareholders---instead of the best interest of the bottom line.


Okay, so I have laid out what I see as the problem. Now, what’s the solution? I believe we need to communicate and hold accountable our government representatives both local, state, and national. We need to write these people and voice our dissatisfaction with the status quo.


We need to prohibit the Supreme Court from making law through interpretation and act in the manner for which they were created. People mistakingly believe that a Supreme Court  justice cannot be removed; that is incorrect. They can be removed for dereliction of duty. When this happens, we need to challenge them.


Believers of Jesus Christ need to unite as a unit and reclaim our country under the obedience to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This country  needs  to return to the roots  established by our founding fathers.


As evidenced by the events of the last decade, we are in at least two or more wars, critical economic conditions, decadent moral behaviors, and  critical social and cultural issues too numerous to mention. Our children are growing up afraid, without direction, and with values relative to that of Godless people. 


I see the only way out is to be led out by God through his Son, Jesus Christ. We have had  the  most highly educated people on the planet working in government, healthcare, education, banking and corporate business, and the military. Yet, in my 65 years, I have never seen such a mess  caused by these so-called brilliant people.


This was founded as a Christian nation; and needs to return to a Christian nation---not a nation with some Christians living in it!! Time to act is now. Get busy, get informed, get active.
