Quote of Note

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation



: 'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.
We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free.
:
: Amen!'

God Bless America?


Since 9/11/01 Americans have been singing and talking "God Bless America". Most of them don't know that his blessing are automatic to the nation that loves and serves him. Furthermore, curses come upon those nations that used to serve him and have turned away.

DT 28:12 The LORD will open the heavens, the storehouse of his bounty, to send rain on your land in season and to bless all the work of your hands. YOU WILL LEND TO MANY NATIONS BUT WILL BORROW FORM FROM NONE. 13 The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. 14 Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.

DT 28:15 However, if you do not obey the LORD your God and do not carefully follow all his commands and decrees I am giving you today, all these curses will come upon you and overtake you:

DT 28:43 THE ALIEN WHO LIVE AMONG YOU WILL RISE ABOVE YOU HIGHER AND HIGHER, but you will sink lower and lower. 44 HE WILL LEND TO YOU, BUT YOU WILL NOT LEND TO HIM. He will be the head, but you will be the tail.

I kind of think that with China buying our Treasury Bonds and using our trade imbalance to buy large amounts of oil to grow their economy, we are being warned the the curse is falling on us every time we go to the gas pump or buy a flag made in China.
