A Word from Papa “J”
Satan’s mind is overwhelmed with hubris; this is the same mindset found in all dictators, radicals and social progressives whose goal is to overthrow any FREE people of countries who are attentive to freedom and consequence. Along with Satan these people have real NAMES and why an individual like Alinsky and an organization called ACORN harvest them. Isaiah 14:12-19
Good Morning
I need to make some changes in the devotional since I am waxing hard on subjects that can be better addressed by others. Once a few years back someone said that my words were of political content and in those days my words were not, but today he would be correct. I do have concern for our nation and I believe all of us as citizens should have a concern for unity and not division.
Many of us turn on our mouth and drive to the nearest conversation; then upon arriving we jam the air around us with such intelligence and noise that our pets have to cover their ears. Why just the other day I noticed both our dogs with their paws covering their ears while my neighbors and I argued over liberals and conservatives. In these kinds of encounters there is no victory and everyone walks away with the attitude of; “boy I’m glad that’s over!”
Yet there is an answer to all of this trouble facing the citizens of this country, the answer is a simple one really. We as a nation need only to show up at the Throne of God in humble and repented prayer. Whenever the nation Israel returned to God, God would intervene and rescue the nation from pending disaster and when Israel failed to repent God would do nothing and Israel always suffered.
So here I am, on one hand wanting to slam each and every one of us for complacency and selfish idolatry because that is where most of us are; but knowing in my heart that we should all fall down prostrate and we should all be like those of Nineveh. We should put on our finest sack cloth and perfume our self with ash dust and repent of the wickedness that we so easily stuff in the face of our Creator.
So I make a change to devote myself to prayer: “O LORD God, how much longer will you hold back your final judgment on our failing nation?” “The wolves that once chased us are now biting and soon these treacherous and self-seeking radicals will have their way. Their pride is overwhelming like a tornado backed by Satan himself. Lord of lords and King of kings I pray that you will deliver this Nation from these present evils; Amen”… please continue, even throughout the day and on into each day hereafter.
Our prayer to God is the ONLY answer; everything else is but NOISE! Nehemiah 9:1-38.
