AMERICANS NEED TO PRAY AND REPENT OUR WAY TO PROSPERITY AND LIBERTY

I see a lot of comments about what to do about our current political dilemma of government tyranny, hyperinflation, and the destruction of our nation and what needs to be done to turn it around.  Some have proposed another Jan. 6, 2021 style protest in Washington while others say we need to ensure elections are fair, done according to the Constitution.  These ideas have pro and con aspects to them but the best course I see is to return to God as our founders established this nation on.  I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said; "this Constitution is only suitable for a good and moral people, it is totally unsuited for any other".  Contrary to the leftist narrative, most of our founders were Evangelical Christians.  A very few were deists but they still believed in a God who cared about people. 

There are many stories in the Old Testament of the Bible that tell us what happened to the Israelites when they turned their backs on God.  They were defeated in battle, taken captive, and carried off to foreign lands to be slaves.  Once they repented and cried out for forgiveness God released them and took them back home only to see the trend repeated time and again.  God was very patient, giving them several opportunities to repent each time before He got fed up and punished them.  Today America is going into destruction mode because people are chasing idols rather than worship their Creator. 

Entire denominations, particularly the catholic and methodist churches are bowing to political correctness in order to be accepted  by the satanists in America. They have accepted and even embraced homosexuality, going against the Bible they claim to follow.  It seems that too many Evangelical pastors are afraid to speak out for fear of losing their 501C3 tax exemptions for speaking out against evil government policies. 

Abortion, the murder of an unborn child of God and paid for with tax money against the wishes of citizens, has killed more than 63 million mostly minority babies since Roe vs Wade was enacted in 1973.  The court said that an unborn baby has no rights and that if a mother wants to kill it, for any reason or for no reason, she can do so legally. 

In 1948 the Supreme Court took 8 words out of context from a 2 page letter President Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury, Connecticut Baptist Association.  The Baptists were protesting the state giving tax funds to a competing denomination and wanted a piece of the pie.  Jefferson wrote back that government funding of churches was not allowed and the Supreme Court sided with the atheists that wanted all public displays of religion banned.  Jefferson's letter  merely stated that government couldn't take sides in favor of one denomination over another but those 8 words were used to pervert the intent of the founders.  This is what happens when judges legislate from the bench as they did in Roe vs. Wade.  The court said abortion is a "right" and an unborn child doesn't have a right to life , liberty, and the pursuit of happiness listed in the Constitution.  

Since the late 1960s prayer and any display of the Ten Commandments has been deemed unconstitutional in any public forum, homosexuality has become accepted as "normal", and we now see the "transgender" movement destroying women's athletics.  A biological male can compete against women in all athletic events.  Where are all the feminists who spent ten years fighting for government funding of women's sports, a fight for the Title 9 provision?

A big deal now is that a person can decide if they are male, female, or what they call non-binary (whatever that is) and using a pronoun that "offends" one of these degenerates is liable to get one arrested for "hate speech".  There are only 2 genders, male and female.  Using surgery or drugs to enhance the opposite sex in one's system doesn't change the dynamics of how God created us.  A man can take estrogen treatments and have his male genitals removed surgically but that DOES NOT make him a woman.  He cannot get pregnant and give birth regardless of what pseudo-scientists say.  A woman can have her breasts surgically removed, take testosterone treatments, and have artificial male genitals attached but cannot impregnate another woman.  God determines a baby's sex at the very beginning, from the moment of conception and there is nothing anyone can do to change that fact.

My solution to our problems hinges on 2 Chronicles 7:14, which says;"If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways I will hear them from Heaven and will forgive their sins and heal their land".  This is where We the People need to start the reversal of destructive public policy.  I pray this every day and also live it out, doing what I can to see our nation restored to the status of "a shining city on a hill" as described by George Winthrop many years ago.  Until We the People turn back to God our nation will continue to spiral down the drain of failure as a society.

I read my Bible every day and pray asking God to show mercy on this nation and to pour out His Holy Spirit to open eyes, open minds, and to soften hearts.  I also pray for a revival that will surpass all previous Great Awakenings combined.  I believe there were 3, one that started in the 1760s, one in the 1850s, and one in the early 1920s.  I hope to see not only more in raw numbers but also greater per-capita numbers (that is percentage based numbers).  If every Christian who reads this will try my idea I feel sure we will see a change in the fortunes of the nation and as individuals. 

Joe dementia recently said on TV that if citizens intend to oppose his regime that we will need F-15 fighter-bombers and nuclear weapons to even start to oppose him.  I took that as a threat to use nuclear weapons against We the People to stop any opposition and I believe he and his satanist string pullers are more than willing to sit back in their safe zone and launch nuclear missiles against any state that shows a group ready to fight.  We don't need to consider troops because technology exists that a very few people can sit in secure locations and destroy We the People with missiles, aerial drones, and/or remote controlled ground drones to attack us.  I don't believe the majority of soldiers will follow orders to kill citizens but they aren't needed and the political despots are very busy removing any who they feel will refuse to obey unlawful orders, kicking them out as "domestic terrorists" or "white supremacists" for daring to honor the oath they took to uphold, protect, and defend the Constitution of the united states of America.  The satanic left wants only human drones that will follow orders without thinking or looking at if those orders comply with their oath to the Constitution.

I believe that the satanists are pushing because they relish the idea of killing off half of the country's population and knowing the rest will obey without question, be subjects to serve the political ruling class.  We the People don't have the leadership, logistics, command and control, supply, medical, or financial structure to do what is needed to accomplish what our founders accomplished.  Our only hope is turning to Almighty God to fight this battle for us.  I have the military training and experience but am old and disabled so can neither fight nor properly train others to fight a successful war against  a regime with unlimited sources of every aspect needed to fight us.  Our nation can't take on China or Russia due to the actions of the regime of the illegitimate usurper to destroy our defense against world powers but there is enough to overcome whatever efforts We the People can put up.  Please join me in praying and living 2 Chronicles 7:14.

I submit this in the name of the Most Holy Trinity, in faith, with the responsibility given to me by Almighty God to honor His work and not let it die from neglect.
