“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.”- Psalm 33:12a
The people of His inheritance is Israel, however, because of their rejection of Christ, the door was opened for gentiles to receive God’s grace and mercy. This great country of ours was founded on such principles. Sadly, the influence of Satan has permeated much of our landscape. Being given a free will to choose allows us to do as we please. The positive side of that is that when we choose to serve God we do so willingly without coercion. We don’t have to follow the ways of God, but we can. The United States of America was and is great because its’ people as a whole are great. There are still millions of Americans who love this country and believe strongly in God.
This nation is currently on a path of destruction. Poor decisions and poor leadership have taken us here. We can rise up as one nation under God again, but it will take the commitment of believers to pray each day that our nation might rise up as a beacon for God among the nations. Freedom is not, nor was it ever free. It was bought with a price. Let us not be reckless, but strong in the face of adversity. May God’s perfect will be done for our great nation. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing.
