Well July the 4th is just around the corner, and it is about time that some understand what being an American is about. It seems things have gotten turned around and it is time for it to get straightened out. Is this about Christianity YES is it about being an American YES! I have sat by quietly and watched stupidity take over and it is time for it to stop.
I am ashamed of what is going on in America today. People being paid millions of dollars to bounce a ball, or hit a ball, or throw or catch a ball, and our American solders, who defend our FREEDOM, struggling to get by. July the 4th the United States Independence Day. There were 56 men that signed it and 54 were Christians, so yes I believe the United States of America was then and is now a Godly country.
by Shepherd Jym Wells
Psalm 22:28 (NKJV) For the kingdom is the Lord’s, and He rules over the nations.
Like it our not this country was founded on FREEDOM and God. How can I say that one might say well the answer to that question is in the signing of the Declaration of Independence 54 of the 56 signers were Christians. So yes I believe America was a Godly country.
It is time for Christians to stand up and be heard. It is time for God fearing people to say enough and take back our Country. America doe not belong to Washington D C professional politicians, it belongs to “We The People” and it is time that born again Christians stand up and be heard.
In 1 Corinthians 12:12 (NKJV), we read, For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.
When I first read this verse I though do what and I had to read it over and over and finally it his me. We as people came up with a new word that is not found in the Bible and that is DENOMINATIONS and for years we have fought over who has it all right. In the middle of this verse I found the answer that has been a battle for years… “but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body,”.
All these different denominations have different jobs and if we would stop the fighting over who is right and who is wrong and let the Holy Spirit fix what is wrong. I believe that if we stop trying to change each other and start trying to change a lost world then we would make a difference…
I am not saying every Religious group out there is of God what I am saying is let the Holy Spirit take care of them and if an opportunity comes to you to speak to them know the scripture and show them what the Bible says… We must love people into Heaven not brow beat them into Heaven.. I am going to finish with some scripture and let us see if we can be ALL that our Father desires us to be…
The Great Commission
Matthew 28: 16-20 (NKJV) 16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. 17 When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted.
18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go [c]therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” [b]Amen.
Footnotes
Matthew 28:19 M omits therefore
Matthew 28:20 NU omits Amen.
I now pray that this will help us with dealing with other quote unquote DENOMINATIONS and we get busy saving the lost I do pray that this does help each of you that reads it…AMEN!
Memory Verse…
2 Chronicles 7:13-14 (NKJV) 13 When I shut up heaven and there is no rain, or command the locusts to devour the land, or send pestilence among My people, 14 if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

I believe all I can say is you are 100% correct, and I agree with you. This whole world has turned upside down. and it makes me sick. But all I know to do is wait on the Lord because He is gonna have His way and people are gonna be blown away. I see the evil but I also see what God is doing now and He’s not done yet!! Just keep praying for His will to be done on earth as it in heaven. And soon some people are gonna be real sorry if they don’t wake up because the great awakening has already begun and God is exposing the evil, but soon all will know it was God that did it and not man. Nearly every day I see God at work doing just what He said He would do. And I’m partnering with His agenda and praying for what He wants. Wow it’s gonna be awesome. But there will be some that are gonna reap what they have sowed.
