Is America Dying or is it Being Reborn?

That is a good question. I cannot remember a time when I have had such a heavy heart over my country. I move from grief to anger, from outright hostility to vestiges of hope. The political activity we have been witnessing this year has galvanized the American people and has helped us all come to a new appreciation for our Constitution. We are also seeing a new interest in our founding fathers and other patriots who stood against tyranny and for freedom. There has been a rash of new book titles that are flying off the book store shelves that highlight a conservative point of view. It seems our nation is waking up from a long sleep.

At the same time, millions of people are seriously concerned over the new direction government is taking. It seems as America has moved away from God and adherence to the Word of God as a standard for morals, ethics, and a general sense of what is right or wrong. We are seeing our elected officials take us away from adherence to the Constitution. The political and social battles in the coming year will be over the Constitution of the United States.

Newton's law of motion says; "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." There has been a significant rush to the left. There will be push back, I assure you.

I also see a spiritual revival on the horizon. It is becoming evident that it is time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. And that includes the body of Christ. Something is happening and God is up to something. While it may look like the devil is in control, God is laying the groundwork for a Reformation of sorts. We are learning that we can no longer adopt the ways of the world and expect God to bless it. No, we are learning the hard lesson that we must return to the Word of God and do things His way. When we do, we get Biblical results.

I came across this wonderful video last week that explains this awesome painting. Be blessed as you take it in.
