If you are a Christian....
I
grieve for the America I loved. We are outnumbered and we must find a way to
lead this country to Truth. As a Christ-bearer I believe our concern about
losing the Christian values so much of
America rejects can only be remedied by a change of hearts.
We
believe in God's omnipotent power to place the rulers in power whom He chooses.
Perhaps that is how God intends to answer
our prayers. Yesterday, when I expected a Romney win, I really felt a real
concern, almost a fear that the Church would go back to "business as usual"
because we would think that a more conservative government would make things
better.. if our prayers had been answered this way!
As I have prayed I have come to believe that the old spiritual truth that suffering and injustice brings us to our knees in sincere and passionate intercession. This is the kind of prayer that is so effective.

It
will take more than one election to bring this country back to traditional
Christian and conservative values......just look around at the values on display
everywhere. It will take an earthquake
of continued intercession.....we need to be on our face day after day before the
Lord. I'm not sure that is where we really are yet. God may be giving us that
opportunity if we really want Him to heal this land.
How much sleep have we
lost in order to interceed with passion and real humility. "if my people who
are called by My Name will humble themselves[and understand that only God can bring this to
pass] and pray and seek My face[day after day]...."
Can
we be honest enough with ourselves to judge whether or not that describes the
intensity of our prayer life?
Or
will we just accept our country as it is.....it's easier that way....and learn
to adjust? That is the history of the Church in
America.
I
know where I'm going to be for the next four years......WITH GOD'S HELP AND THE
HOLY SPIRIT'S GUIDANCE. Will you join me?
One more thing. I'm struck by the connection with where we are now in this country and the narrative of this book/movie. Give it a read.
