Shalom,

Psalm 33:12 says this:


12 Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His heritage.

This is a very familiar verses of Scripture to most believers! Have YOU heard this before? I want to stir up your thinking concerning this verse today! Do you realize that many nations have a single ruler, or dictator, that runs the entire nation? Some still have monarchies, though many are in name only. The United States of America is the  most unique nation on the face of the earth, and the God of the Bible intended it to be so! We are NOT ruled by one person, or even by one group. Our nation is set up as a democratic Republic. We are, and were always meant to be, a nation OF the people, BY the people, and FOR the people! No one segment of our government is supposed to take on too much power, but the power and authority of each of the three parts (Executive, legislative, and Judicial) is regulated by the others! With a government that is OF the people, we have much more God-given authority over what goes on than many of us have ever realized or put into practice! "Blessed is the NATION...,  the PEOPLE"! We are to refuse to be anxious or worried or afraid, but in every situation, we are to come to HIM in prayer to receive what is needed from the One, True God (Philippians 4:6-8)! When was the last time you actually just came before the Lord praying in the Spirit for the USA until the Spirit of God gave you peace? THAT is praying His perfect will into the earth, even though WE have no earthly idea what we have prayed! When ungodly men and women SEEM to have gained the ascendancy where our nation is concerned, it is HIGH TIME to take our proper place of authority and begin to change things by the words of our mouths! Are you ready for this? If not, GET READY! "To whom much is given MUCH is required" (Luke 12:48)! Ask HIM today what YOUR part is to be and let's be found DOING it when Jesus appears for the church! AMEN! Here is Hillsong Live with "You Never Fail":



Shalom in Him!
