If you trust in politics on any level or any leader on this earth, you are going to become very disillusioned in the next election. Nothing has been what it seems.
Will you be able to stave off discouragement when you find out your favorite leader was not at all what you thought?
Noah tried to warn the people in His day and no one would listen. And, they will not listen today either.
Psalm 146:3-7
3 Do not trust in princes,
In mortal man, in whom there is no salvation.
4 His spirit departs, he returns to the earth;
In that very day, his thoughts perish.
5 How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
Whose hope is in the Lord his God,
6 Who made heaven and earth,
The sea and all that is in them;
Who keeps faith forever;
7 Who executes justice for the oppressed;
Who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets the prisoners free.
Matthew 24:37-39
37 For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be."
2 Timothy 4:3-5
"3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths. 5 But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."
All the clues are there for those who are discerning. But those who want to believe we can win in this world have diluted themselves, focused more on saving their world than on Christ.
So many believers refuse to admit our country is under judgement. WHY? Perhaps those who look to this country and this world want things to remain as they always have been for them personally.
If we are going to be trusting in Christ we will be looking to His promises in His Word for our strength no matter what is going on in the world around us.
Isaiah 40:10
Behold, the Lord GOD comes with might, and His arm establishes His rule. His reward is with Him, and His recompense accompanies Him.
Does anyone really think America deserves to be saved? Does anyone really believe God just ignores or winks at all our sin and debauchery? Does anyone have confidence that God cares more about America than He does about righteousness?
America is not mentioned in the Bible because she will no longer be a world power. Her pride has caused her to indulge in monstrous sin, even ejecting God from all venues in favor of the worship of self.
Matthew 15:7-9 "…7 You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you: 8‘ These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me. 9 They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men."
Here is the good news, no one needs the country of America, but they do need Jesus Christ. Those individuals who repent from their sin and ask to be cleansed by Christ will be saved from their sin and from hell. No country of the world will do this as an entire country except Israel during the tribulation.
Romans 11:25-27 "25 I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part has come to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. 26 And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come from Zion; He will remove godlessness from Jacob. 27 And this is My covenant with them when I take away their sins.”…"
