Sodom & Gomorrah To America

by 5 Comments

 How far have we fallen in America? It is heartbreaking to see everything that continues to elevate here in our country in sin. Everyday someone is being raped, murdered, molested, abused, used, robbed, and the list goes on and on….

 We have come to a fork in our road here in America that we better repent and return to God or prepare for what is to come. There comes a point in life that when we see the signs and hear the call, that we better pick up and move without looking back.  There are times within the family when we must regroup and build strength for the future.

 We never know the day nor the hour of what is to come, but when we see the signs it is wise to be organized…..

God On The American Dollar

by Leave a Comment

 There is a distinct reason our founding fathers of The United States of America placed these words “In God We Trust” on the American dollar.  They placed God on our currency because they knew our downfalls in history of what happens when we remove God from our focus by placing money or material things in front of our Creator.

  If America comes to a point of not holding ourselves accountable to God then who do we hold ourselves accountable to and what purpose is there in life? For with God there is direction and purpose in serving one another to reach higher levels in life  and when we neglect this Truth then life only becomes a selfish circle that will spiral out of control.

 We are to learn from history and when we neglect these facts then it is only a matter of time before the collapse. This message is taught over and over in the Holy Bible and when you study the fall of the Roman Empire you will see the parallel to this Truth. This doesn’t only apply to nations but it also applies to every individual in life, for with God we stand and without Him we fall.

 It is my sincere prayer that America returns to God with repentant hearts from where we have drifted in this dark world and that every individual in life sees the purpose in Jesus Christ. I pray that we learn to respect each other no matter our belief and that we learn to work together as one to restore what has been lost in America by giving a message of hope back to the people for our children’s future… Amen

 Sincerely,

Succesful Leaders Stand With God

by 4 Comments

 Recently in a conversation with an individual in leadership he spoke of his belief in God but in the same conversation stated,” That politics is no place for the church.” When he stated this the first thought that came to mind was,” Does he even know who the church is?”  Then I firmly stated,” That this is exactly what is wrong with our country today because without the discipline and wisdom in the Word of God then we do not properly serve the people. The church is not a building or a place but it dwells within us and it is our duty to uphold the Word of  God in everything we do from our homes, to our schools, to our churches, from our work place, and even in our government.”

 This separation in church and state is tearing our homes and our our nation apart. We must hold ourselves accountable under God the Supreme Judge in knowing that we do not hold all the answers and learn how to follow the Word of God in everything we do. By leaving God out of our lives begins to raise man in the flesh and when this happens it is just a matter of time before the struggles set in before the fall. This is a proven fact in history and our fore fathers new this when building this country.

 Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and every other gentlemen who assisted in the writing of the Declaration of Independence put aside their personal beliefs in order to not misguide the meaning of true freedom. But  they never intended to have God removed from our American foundation! Any and every individual living in this country has the right to believe how they choose based on every individuals freewill because this is the core principle in the meaning of love and in order to hold this country together we must keep God in front!

Love is free and not directed!

George Washington once said,”It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”

John Adams who also played a major roll in our country also said, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”     

 The division of church and state has occurred of  weak individuals who fall tolerant to not speaking what they know in their hearts to be true. It is easy in life to just get by without causing further debates but when we don’t stand for the truth then what will we stand for? 

 Here is a poem from the book Special Delivery and I pray it touches you as it touches me:

A Flag In The Wind

Have you ever stopped to ever watch a flag blowing in the wind?

It moves so graciously in the freedom to no end.

As you watch the flag you will begin to see

The importance of its foundation

Allowing it to be free!

As the flag moves in each direction blowing in the wind

Begin to feel the freedom within its grace

 And this is when you will begin to appreciate

Our freedom in this beautiful place!

There are times the flag may rest

And other times it will stand strong!

But all that really matters within the freedom of the wind

Is that the flags foundation holds to the end!

It is in this appreciation we will find

No other country in all of mankind!

Gov. Mark Sanford Adds To Americas Moral Decline

by 2 Comments

 Here is another example of the moral decay in America that continues along the same lines of Bill Clinton in the affair that changed our society. Ever since that night with Bill Clinton stating that oral sex is not sex this changed our children’s perspective in the wrong direction that continues to decline in trying to justify something wrong in order to make yourself look right. What examples are we honestly being to our children when we abuse our positions and continue to justify what we did wrong instead of just stating the truth in where we failed to adhere to the Word of God in losing our self control?

 We all face temptations in life and without standing on the Word of God then it is only a matter of time before we give in. I agree that this matter is a personal matter with the Sanford family but I must add that this is also a matter of proper leadership due to the example that it is being to our children. Whether he loses his job as governor or not over the affair is one thing but in common sense when a man has a job with certain responsibilities and simply does not do his job then what should he honestly expect? Our motto in our company is this,” Do your job or be fired,” and this should be the motto in America . We all make mistakes but there is no excuse for wrong doing that affects the people and when we continue to allow wrong actions then what message are we sending to our children of tomorrow?

 If we continue to be tolerant in our society and allow individuals to do as they please with no repercussions for their actions then what message does this show? Change does begin in our homes but it is high time that leaders begin to do their jobs in holding themselves accountable under God and doing what is right for the people. It is time that we seek leaders that care more for what is right for the people and by the people instead of those that care more about fulfilling their selfish desires in their leadership positions.

 Until we learn how to speak the truth and face our wrong decisions in sin then our lives will only  continue to fall even further away from what we know to be true. It is my prayer that Mark Sanford is able to teach his children how to not fall as he and South Carolina does what is right in sending the proper message to our country that will make others think before they act….

Where Are The Men of God?

by 3 Comments

 Where are the men of God that once stood with the armour that did not fall weak and remained strong? I can remember a time when men of God stood boldly and declared the Word of God as the Truth and the light to anyone that is misguiding our children and now where are they? Are they asleep? Are they too concerned of persecution? Or, are they to worried about what they may lose?

 Being a man of God does not mean to lay down and be tolerant of sin but to stand strong in the armour of God without waver from the Truth! In order for us to regain what we have lost we must unify in the body of Christ to serve and obey in what is right for our childen of tomorrow! For Jesus plainly tells us,” Those that lead my children astray might as well put a millstone around their neck!” 

 Our country as a whole has fallen to sin because men have forgotten how to work together in the body in understanding their position under God. Many of our leaders and fathers have become lazy, tolerant, blind, deaf, and too secure in their material life to risk losing what they think they own instead of speaking what is right by God and wrong in sin. If men do not begin to come together as one and stand up in faith with Jesus in their hearts in what is right by God, then what do you honestly see in the future for our children of tomorrow?

 We must come together within the Christian body to gain strength and a unified voice that will tremble this earth within the POWER of God in the Holy Spirit!!! If we do not do this then we will only continue to suffer while others will fade away in all the darkness that is surrounding us in this fallen world.

 So what if we lose our lives or everything we have! For with God we have everything and without Him what do we really have? There is great Honor in the Kingdom of God to those that understand the true meaning of putting ourselves second to others instead of first. This is not about disorder but about giving direction to rebuild this nation on the foundation of God while acting in the love of Jesus Christ. There comes a point in every Christian that we must say, ” Enough is enough and what  you are doing is not right by God and hurting the people!”

 John Adams once said,” We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our constitution was made only for moral and religious people. It is inadequate to the government of any other.”

 George Washington once said, ” It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.”

 Men of God need to stand up for our children’s future and put aside our personal desires for the sake of others. It is my prayer that we come together as One Nation Under God With Liberty and Justice For All!!! Amen

Spiritual Revelations

Don’t be like Eli in 1st Samuel and miss something that has been given by God. If you recall with Eli he did not listen because the Word of God was rare in those days and he did not recognize what was taking place until he saw the persistence of Samuel…
