ANY NATION CAN FALL

ANY NATION CAN FALL

The USA is now at a critical juncture, perhaps a tipping point in our nation’s history.  How so?  Since 1962, we have marginalized Christ’s influence in public schools via the termination of daily prayer and scripture reading.  We have committed genocide on an unborn generation (more than 54 million innocent babies) since the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision in 1973.  We have passed laws that limit parental authority while promoting the disintegration of marriages and families.  We have legalized sexual identities and lifestyles that are expressly prohibited by our Creator.  And all of this has been done under the guise of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

The lessons of history must be learned, understood and applied.   Otherwise they will be repeated.

For example, The Roman Empire was one of the greatest to ever rule the world.  For hundreds of years the Romans dominated the Mediterranean and built magnificent cities and roads while imposing the “Pax Romana” upon all those whom they had conquered.  The power of Rome seemed unassailable.

For centuries Rome reigned supreme as a superpower, convinced of its superiority over any conceivable enemy.  However, in the first decade of the fifth century A.D., Romans awakened to find Alaric, king of the Visigoths, standing at their gates with an awesome army.

The citizens felt it would be preposterous that any enemy to think that Rome would fall to its power.  Envoys were sent out to conduct negotiations and persuade King Alaric to move away.  They warned that an attack on Rome would be met by the overwhelming force of Roman legions.

Alaric’s reply was quite simple: “The thicker the grass the more easily scythed.”

Soon the envoys realized Alaric would not be fooled by empty threats.  What then would be the price of his departure?  Alaric explained that his soldiers would march into Rome and seize all the gold, silver and anything else of value that could be removed.  They would also free every barbarian who had been enslaved.

The envoys became hysterical. “But what would that leave us?” they demanded.

“Your lives,” Alaric replied.  And with that Rome’s centuries as an apparently unbeatable superpower came to a bitter end.

Today, AMERICA must repent posthaste of our prideful arrogance and abominable transgressions or stand in danger of the judgment and wrath of Almighty God.  My daily prayer is “God bless America, land that I love…”  But we cannot override the will and Word of God which clearly says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.” (Psalm 33:12) America, let’s return to Him – before it is too late.

Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
