When our country was founded it already had a mindset that created an atmosphere of Godly living. Our forefathers made it very clear that any people would be free to have any mindset that they choose but within that mindset the governing power would be based on the Word of God and the guidelines laid out therein. That mindset with the spirit it had filled the air like an aroma of sweet savor and the influence spread to every person to the point that the people that lived in this country lived like they knew Christ even it they didn't believe in Him. That mindset of freedom was so power that the foundation of this country grew to one of the most powerful countries that has ever existed on this planet. The freedom of people to be themselves and do develop their dreams with the respect of each citizens beliefs made for a strong community of individuals that joined hands to become the force that had the will of God as their foundation to build on.
Each individual had the right to share and even try to convince their friends and neighbors to share their beliefs. The friends and neighbors could do the same but all agree to work together and agree to disagree.
God's will has always been for men to have freewill and on their own, decide to walk in His footsteps. This country was filled with a mindset that, without having to speak a word made people knew their place and responsibility. Men and women walked in discipline and expected other people to do the same, knowing that their would be consequences if they walked in any other way. The laws were always built around Spiritual guidelines with the same sweet odor as the one that could be sensed in this countries everyday citizen. This place was filled with the air of God almighty, the God of Heaven.
In the 1960's we, as a country, started a campaign to do our own will even to the point of our government passing laws to protect our ability to live as we pleased without any consequences. We started to create a void around us. A void that would ultimately push God and His Spirit completely out of our land. This void might work to some degree if it is possible to maintain that void. The problem is if that void is ever pierced you never know what it might be filled with. When men choose to live a life void of the Spirit of God the only thing left is selfishness, greed and a desire for power. When that void is filled with those things then there is no common ground in which to base the control of power. Who power is in control? Without a guide line to work from to what are we founded on? Our forefathers, although they never forced their beliefs on anyone that still based their beliefs on a firm foundation, the Word of God.
Although we have fallen into deep, deep trouble there is still hope if we are willing to stand. The hope is not in our government nor has it ever been. The hope still lies within the hearts of those that believe in the principles of God's word even if they don't necessity walk with him. That hope lies within the heart of men and we must allow it to come out as we stand and proclaim it without fear of men. Stand and speak our hearts even when we are not liked and restore the mindset of our forefathers. Be willing to die to restore our nation to a place that our children can find secure. We must realize that there is something bigger than even the life we have. When we are gone the foundation of this land needs to be one of the same ingredients for our children that our forefathers left their children.
As we start to rebuild this foundation it must be centered on Jesus Christ and His Spirit must be the Spirit that guides our words and actions. The power we can generate through unleashing His Spirit as we speak is without end. It already exists within each believer but must be revealed in our speeches as we rebuild. If one man will stand and proclaim with authority that he will not be denied then others will follow.
The next man that wants to be president of this nation should make as part of his platform that if he is elected as president he will let the first words out of his acceptance speech to be ,{LET US PRAY.} and the end of that prayer will be,{IN JESUS NAME I PRAY.} Stand, and above all stand. If we ever elect a person that serves another God other than Jesus Christ then he has a right to pray like he chooses but don't forbid us from praying to our god anywhere we please.
Faith is a very powerful weapon when it is placed in front of us and reveals our trust in God. Fear to show faith will destroy a nation, one person at a time.

Hi Mr. Watson,
You are so right, I agree completely. I will say that Old Abe did do dome things I didn't like and some things I did like, just like most people. I"ve read some of your things, some I like and some don't know that I agree wit you. I'm am however very eager to learn all I can and try to stand as true as I can for this Country. I'll fight right along beside you and walk friend and friend for a common cause.
Actually I just had that picture available and I really liked what he said about being on God's side.
Joshua had an encounter with an angel one time and ask him if he were for them or their adversary?
The angel replied,{I came in the name of the Lord. He didn't come to take sides, he came to take over.
As a member of the tea party, that's the mindset I like for each of us to stand on because that is what someone needs to do in Washington, not join the crowd but take over. We need to place people there with a passion for the constitution and that loves this country to die for it if need be.
You and I might not see eye to eye on every thing and I might not present myself well at all times. I know I don't understand all I need to about history and the in" and out's about it but I greatly love this country and am willing to learn a be a help if I can. God bless you and your famly.
Using Lincoln for your picture says a lot
Who was old Honest Abe?
A destroyer of the Constitution the War of northern Aggression was unconstitutional and immoral
as was Lincoln !
To bad Robert E Lee did not capture Washington and force a peace treaty on the north.
