Topic: Nation
Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. (Isaiah 58:1-2 KJV)
Where is justice in Christian nation, America? What’s happening to our nation that our forefather began this nation with the Holy Word of God? Would America be ready for God’s judgment?
Just a few days ago, President Obama announced that he’s favor of homosexual marriage. Why? Is because he wants to win for this year election for the second term? Or is because he wants everybody to be happy, even those who reject God’s view on traditional marriage? Even though we want everybody to be happy, there is a boundary line between God and mankind’s way to live life. We didn’t start to live life until God formed us. We belong to Him, not to ourselves.
In Genesis 2:24 says, “Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” This statement doesn’t say about marriage between man and man or woman and woman or man with several wives. King Solomon had about thousand wives while he ruled in Israel. As a result, he lost his personal relationship with God and began to follow several pagan gods that his wives worshipped.
We need to pray for our president and other political leaders to turn this around to 360 degree. Last June, we began to see some Christian leaders decided to be united with Islam and made a new religion, which it is now called Chrislam. President Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Robert Scheduler, Sr. and Rick Warren are the part of this new religious movement.
We need to stand and pray for our political and religious leaders to turn away from their sins and reunite with God to lead this nation. But, we need to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to our families, friends, neighbors, and communities before He’d return to judge our nation.
If you’d like to know Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, I’d like to encourage you to do two simple things. First, confess your sins and invite Jesus Christ to your life. Paul said in Romans 10:9-11, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” There is no sinner prayer formula. Instead, you just talk to God at where you are now. Secondly, I’d like to encourage you to find a good solid biblical teaching church and Christian friends. They can help you to build strong relationship with God.
