A Nation Under God

Thank You, Lord, that we are a nation born out of faith in You and we stay strong through Your strength, not ours. Thank You that we call home-sweet-home the good ol’ U-S-A and that those who have become Your child through spiritual birth will have a heavenly home some day.
We worked in Your fields this morning; we traveled Your highways today. We used a creek for a roadmap, and a tree for a chapel to pray. It’s all because of You, Lord. We are proud to sing Your praises and to live in this land of the free.
Deuteronomy 28:1-3 – “And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe [and] to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the LORD thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: 2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God. 3 Blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the city, and blessed [shalt] thou [be] in the field.”
Just as there’s freedom in Jesus, here in the USA we are free to think as we choose. Right or wrong, win or lose, it is the duty of all Americans to obey the laws, be a positive example and a productive, responsible citizen. We should be informed and, if possible, be involved in our nation’s affairs. We voice our beliefs constructively and treat others like we would like to be treated. It’s the American way.
John 8:31-32 – “Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
Thank you to the red, white and blue -- we will do our best for you. And thanks be to God for loving us and placing us here in the United States of America!
