I cannot seem to shake the feeling that the United States of America is in grave danger...
It appears to me that many in our nation are distancing ourselves from God and His moral laws. In many schools, prisons, public pages, and even in the military, as examples, God is being ousted. The very mention of the Lord's name is now being prohibited more and more. And this scares me.
I believe, too, that as this continues to happen, hearts will harden. People will become prouder than ever. They will have no desire to seek a relationship with their Creator. Nor will they have any desire to worship God, or thank Him for the many blessings He has already bestowed on this great land.
In my heart, I long for true revival and national repentance. I shall continue to hope and pray for this. Nevertheless, my gut feeling is that destruction in coming upon us. However, I do not mean total destruction. But I am certain that acts of great damage and devastation are ahead. When? I don't know. Yet I believe there is still a short time left to turn things around, to seek the Lord, to humble ourselves before the Lord of the universe to ask for His forgiveness and His help.
Therefore, with this in mind, our heartfelt cry should not be, "May God bless America." He's already been doing this for more than two hundred years. Instead, our cry should be, "May God have mercy upon America."
