Have you ever thought about inviting the Great King of the Universe, to your next Tea Party, political, or community gathering? As influential, and as controlling in the affairs of men as God is; many of us have simply neglected the most powerful political ally we have.
Over the last several years, I have attended many events, meetings, and gatherings where well-meaning Americans, mostly Conservative and Independents, have come together to form alliances and to have their voices heard by those in government. Although some opened and closed their activities in prayer, far too many of these grassroots efforts are still neglecting to seek God’s guidance and His aid, before they roll up their sleeves and get to work.
Embarking on any endeavor without first seeking God’s blessing, and not searching the scriptures to validate your plans against God’s Word, is a guaranteed recipe for disaster!
“I've lived, Sir, a long time, and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this Truth — That God governs in the affairs of men.
And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice (Matthew 10:29), is it probable that an Empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured, Sir, in the Sacred Writings, that except the Lord build the House they labor in vain who build it (Psalm 127:1).
I firmly believe this, — and I also believe that without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel: We shall be divided by our little partial local interests; our projects will be confounded, and we ourselves shall become a reproach and bye word down to future ages (Genesis 11:1-9).” – Benjamin Franklin, Speech to the Constitutional Convention, 28 June 1787
I have even been admonished, at more than one “patriotic” event, not to mention the name of “God” so often, as it offended some of the people in attendance. This is usually followed by some type of justification like, “We are going to need everyone we can get, if we are going to win in the 2010 and 2012 elections. We don’t want people leaving or getting upset simply because they don’t believe in God.”
“Cow Pies”, (that’s a technical term) is usually my reply. “Those people” are the problem! Let those who don’t want to pray, or who get offended when you mention God, or quote His Holy Word, leave! Separate yourself from them and your group will fare far better!
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” (2 Corinthians 6:14)
I’m more concerned that I don’t offend God, than I am with offending someone aligned with the moral decline of America!
God loves to do mighty things through little groups. He doesn’t want there to be any doubt in anyone’s military mind, that God alone granted us the victory (Judges 7:2-7). And make no mistake, God will only grant us this victory, if we obey Him, align with Him, and rely solely on His Might to see us through the battles ahead (Deuteronomy 28:1,7).
You cannot fix a broken Christian Nation without Jesus Christ!
Our U.S. Government’s leadership is presently focused on the destruction of everything Americans of yesteryear held dear. Once we were a strong, wealthy nation with no debt, and followed sound financial principles. We produced most of our national goods without dependence on hostile nations to provide for our essentials. We valued truth, justice, and were a defender of the weak and oppressed.
Once we were a devout, God-fearing, Christian nation, one that welcomed strangers to our shores; so long as they embraced our national heritage and flag, our language, and our Judeo-Christian culture and laws. A uni-culture: one nation, under God, was the formula for our success.
Today, our nation’s leaders use laws forced upon us in opposition to the word of God, and of our Constitution; to steal our nation’s wealth. They are robbing future generations of their birth-right, their heritage, and the Liberty guaranteed to us by a Holy God. They advocate and promote the killing of unborn children in opposition to the Commandments of God, and have embarked on a well thought-through plan to destroy our nation’s moral, spiritual, economic, and military strength. They forget God’s punishment on Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24-25), and actually attempt to normalize and encourage that behavior in our schools, to government employees, and within our military ranks. This government promises a positive “hope” and “change”, but instead they “steal, kill, and destroy”!
The words of our Savior, Jesus Christ, will always overcome and outlast the words of Barry Soetoro.
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” (John 10:10-11)
One Nation Under God U.S.A. believes the only source of America’s strength and many blessings was and is Jesus Christ (John 15:4-5)! When we forget that one simple truth, and try to rebuild or restore America on our own, without Him; we WILL NOT succeed!
When we stop obeying the Word of God, stop willingly getting down on our knees, and stop wanting to give the glory to Almighty God that He deserves; God will allow repeated failures, catastrophes, and oppression to drive us back to Him on our knees, instead (Deuteronomy 28:1-68).
The very Liberty and Freedoms we enjoy and hold onto so dearly in America, are direct Blessings from Jesus Christ!
The icon of the Liberty Bell is more than just a symbol of our independence from oppression. It’s inscription more than just a witty phrase that sounded good at the time. It is key to understanding who gave us our Freedom:
”Proclaim LIBERTY throughout all the Land unto all the Inhabitants thereof Lev. XXV X” (Leviticus 25:10) - Inscription on the Liberty Bell
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” (2 Corinthians 3:17)
Jesus Christ was the Spirit of 1776!
When you understand that the Christians who founded America relied on Jesus Christ as their deliverer, it puts a whole new meaning on American Independence. In fact, the entire scripture of Leviticus 25:10, reveals God’s simple solution to the Trillions of dollars of debt we currently have! We just don’t have Christian leaders willing to declare God’s Freedom to the Citizens of America… at least not yet!
America’s Liberties and Freedoms will be restored, strengthened, and preserved… or will be eroded, neglected, and abolished… in direct proportion to our willingness to heed and obey God’s word, and our desire to accept Jesus Christ as the Sovereign King of America!
Barry Soetoro, aka President Barack Hussein Obama challenged the Spirit of the Lord when he said, “We are not a Christian Nation”, and when he mocked the Holy Scriptures and the words of Jesus Christ. See: http://www.onug.us/content/not-reading-your-bible-try-bible-study-barack-obama
It is our responsibility to rise up against all that is God-less in our society, and take a stand in the strength of Jesus Christ!
“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one.” (John 10:27-30)
It is time to start inviting Jesus Christ to our Tea Parties again, and getting Him involved in transforming America to His image (2 Chronicles 7:14); not ours, and certainly not Barry Soetoro’s!
Just as Jesus Christ and the Father are One, we must once again become the many unified members of one body… “One Nation Under God”.
For God and My Country,

Departing From The Course Of Our Founding Fathers
If we ever want to fix this Republic we cannot depart from the course of the Founding Father's. We are a Christian Nation in spite of what obama says. I was in Washington, D.C. two weeks ago and had the privilege of visiting all the memorials and monuments. There is quoted Scripture on every single one. Even in the White House on the mantle of a fireplace right below Lincoln's picture is a prayer written by the Second President of the United States (and first to occupy the White House) John Adams. This location is often used by obama when he gives press conferences as he likes standing in front of Lincoln's picture. The prayer is right behind him. One only has to read the walls of our government buildings to witness our true heritage and the truth from which we have departed. We are a Christian Nation and we need to get back to that foundation FIRST to rebuild this nation. There's still time.
