Time for some tough love……..
I have come to comfort the inflicted and inflict the comfortable.
It is time to really get to the gut of the issue that has torn America apart.
Politics.
From my Friend Pastor Chip Lusko: Wow. I unplug and go to Hawaii and America is on the verge of a Civil War. Seriously, the only hope is repentance and revival. The alternative is Death of a Nation; This is hard to watch.
Good words from Pastor Chip.
I met David Wright yesterday as he stood on the sidewalk at the intersection of San Mateo and Montgomery in Albuquerque. David has the answer! REPENT AMERICA! JESUS! JESUS NOT POLITICS! REPENT OF OUR SINS AGAINST GOD AND LOVE LIKE JESUS! Politics has about buried this country in anger. Politics has divided this country so very much that we are in a civil war! Satan is devouring our country as many Americans have the mind of Satan and not Jesus.
Politics has not helped this country at all. The Republicans and Democrats have failed this country and God. God is are only hope!
We are not to put our faith in man. Cannot you see people, that by putting our faith in man we are going backwards, we are headed to the pit of hell.
American has turned into a country of hate. We must face what we have become.
We are worse off as a nation because of people putting their hope in politics and not our Lord Jesus Christ.
Gut check time..who have you really put your faith in? Is your faith in money? your job? your bank? your postion in the community? your ego? EGO stands for edging God out, and thats what American has done, pushed God aside for politics and created their own Gods, like politicians.
Politics in American has really turned into a religion for many, they put IT before GOD!
Let go of politics grab onto God and His Word and Ways.
The political system in America is broken. It may be beyond repair.
God is our only hope.
As Mark Twain said, “The only difference between a Democrat and Republican is the spelling”
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 3:2
“So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts” Eph 4: 17, 18.
The Scriptures call the mind of the natural man “blinded” 2 Cor. 4:4, “depraved” Romans 1:28, “corrupt” 1 Tim. 6:5, and “unspiritual” Col. 2:18. The natural mind thinks from a humanistic, sin-debased viewpoint. The viewpoint of the flesh directs its thoughts. The sinful mind is under the control of Satan and can never please God because it concentrates on things of the world and not things of the Spirit. The natural mind walks the road of hopelessness and self-destruction.
From Adrian Rogers………
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Your adversary the devil is prowling about like a roaring lion. Don’t underestimate his power.
Satan is an enemy you need to respect like an electrician who has respect for the wires that carry deadly voltage. He knows where the insulation is and he knows how to handle electricity. If an electrician loses his respect for this power, he is going to be in serious trouble.
ACTION POINT:
Everything may be going great for you right now. You’ve got money in the bank, a good job, good health. You’re dancing through the forest and picking wildflowers. But behind a bush is a lion so deadly, he can pounce on you and swallow you whole. You’ve got to be vigilant.
