Through the greatness of Your power shall Your enemies submit themselves to You [with feigned and reluctant obedience]. 4All the earth shall bow down to You and sing [praises] to You; they shall praise Your name in song. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]! 5Come and see the works of God; see how [to save His people He smites their foes; He is] terrible in His doings toward the children of men. 6He turned the sea into dry land, they crossed through the river on foot; there did we rejoice in Him. 7He rules by His might forever, His eyes observe and keep watch over the nations; let not the rebellious exalt themselves.

America is STILL a Christian nation because it was created by God for the purpose of spreading the Gospel, AND, because there are STILL more with us than be with them!

God is well pleased when His people obey His Word! Here is Hillsong United with "The Stand":
Shalom in Him!
