Even as a man or woman's physical body can be ravaged by sin, disease and time, so has this nation been ravaged and affected by the sin, deception and evil that reigns in the hearts of those who follow after their own will and emotions, and not after the righteousness that God requires.
Sin, greed and power have sought to control not only individual lives, but the life of the nation.
It is time to return to the foresight and wishes of our forefathers as they sought to set up these United States under the auspices of almighty God, to rein in truth and righteousness.
As long as the trilogy of fear, doubt and disbelief reign in the hearts and minds of believers, God is powerless to change their personal lives and the future of this nation.
Where are the prayer warriors that used to change principles and peoples' hears and minds? Has a spirit of apathy crept in to cause us to cease to care about our own lives, and even less about the life of our nation?
It ought not to be so. If we care at all about the future of our nation, it is time to once again be on our knees before our God in prevailing prayer for change that will bring about righteousness and truth and blessings to us all.
