The last few months have been filled with one devastating news report after another.  Hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, and violence have rocked our nation.  The news of Americans struggling for basic survival and heroic actions to rescue their neighbors has temporarily trumped the ongoing ideological battle for America’s soul.  The battle to remove God from our culture continues beneath the unfolding scenes that reveal how much we need God.

But God in His mercy continues to hear and answer the prayer of His people who remain faithful to him in this faithless generation.  God has remembered America and is patiently pleading through His prophets that as a nation America would again turn back to God.  When we look at the widespread devastation in areas of our nation and consider the low death toll we should be struck with amazement and heartfelt thanksgiving to God.  Only the hand of God could have spared us greater causalities.

Many are still looking to government as if more laws or more indebtedness could rescue us.  God alone holds the keys to renewing God’s blessing on this nation.  Rejection of God’s Law outlined in the Ten Commandments has placed the entire nation in jeopardy.  Returning to that law would restore the walls of safety that have preserved this nation in the past.  God remains faithful and His Word true.  God’s desire is that our nation would repent and turn from their wicked ways, so that He could again bless us.   May once again mercy triumph over justice.
