As One Nation or Not a Nation!
Today in the United States is a heartfelt time of prayer and reflection as we remember the tragedy on September 11, 2001. It was a shocking global event that stopped most people to mourn and pray. It also created shockwaves of fear throughout the world – when and where would the next attack be? Everyone was on alert.
In America, out of the ashes arose a phenomenal Patriotic spirit – we became As One in our grief and our determination to work together to overcome the evil perpetrated by radical Islamic terrorists. Sadly, those patriotic ‘As One” days gradually gave way to political divisiveness as the nation went back to business as usual and forgot how fragile life can be – gone in a moment.
Today we are suffering another fear-filled world-shaking event that shut down nations - the China Wuhan Covid-19 virus. Like 9/11, this evil was unleashed upon an unsuspecting world. But unlike 9/11, there is no patriotic response – the “As One” nation unity is being relentlessly and deliberately destroyed by radical socialist terrorists determined to overthrow our society. They have done it in many other nations and will not stop until the world submits to its Godless totalitarianism that strips people of all freedom and dignity.
So how do we counter this terrorism? We must actively engage in the politics of the nation. We must learn the laws, learn which political leaders are upholding biblical principles, we must run for office if we are led, and we MUST VOTE for righteous candidates.
As Proverbs 14:34 says, Righteousness exalts a nation; but sin is a reproach to any people.
In the 2016 election in the United States, “while more than 231 million Americans are eligible to vote, more than 97 million of them did not exercise that right in the U.S. presidential election, according to the estimate by the United States Elections Project”. (Quote from The Christian Post)
Included in that total were millions of registered Christian voters – who did NOT vote. There are many reasons people don’t vote, but with so many ways to cast our vote, there is no Valid reason for Christians to not vote
Millions of Christians are working hard to secure that the Godly-based foundation of America is not shattered. I talk to the apostolic leaders who oversee millions of Christians worldwide who are working to eliminate corruption and injustice in their nations such as Mexico, Brazil, Australia, Columbia and many others.
We must engage or be swallowed up by Godlessness.
Read my article – Don’t Abdicate your Power! Is there not a Cause? And prepare yourself, your family, and your neighbors to engage with this righteous battle.
The famous statesmen, Edmund Burke, eloquently stated, “All that's necessary for the forces of evil to win in the world is for enough good men to do nothing.”
We can’t sit this one out – and expect a good result.
We are His End Time Warriors called for Such a Time as This!
See you at the polls!
