Has God left America?
It is a wonderful thing when a country displays on it's currency “IN GOD WE TRUST” but it is a terrible thing if believers in that country buy guns because they want to protect themselves and THEY do not trust in God, when believers attack you when you tell you to trust in God and not in medication; when believers start trusting more in themselves and their own abilities and in other things more than in God.
This is what God said through the mouth of the prophet Jeremiah in Jeremiah 17: 5” Thus says the LORD,“Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the LORD.
6“For he will be like a bush in the desert And will not see when prosperity comes, But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness, A land of salt without inhabitant.
7“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD And whose trust is the LORD.
8“For he will be like a tree planted by the water, That extends its roots by a stream And will not FEAR when the heat comes; But its leaves will be green, And it will not be ANXIOUS in a year of drought NOR CEASE TO YIELD FRUIT.
9“The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick; Who can understand it?
10“I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds.”
These words were spoken to Judah and the wrath of God came on them because they turned away from God. This is what He said to them: Verse 3: “I will give over your wealth and all your treasures for booty, Your high places for sin throughout your borders.
4And you will, even of yourself, let go of your inheritance That I gave you; And I will make you serve your enemies In the land which you do not know; For you have kindled a fire in My anger Which will burn forever.”
It is not the will of God that we perish. God looks after those who TRUST in Him, who OBEY Him. We read in Psalm 127:1,2.
“1Unless the LORD builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the LORD guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.
2It is vain for you to rise up early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of painful labors;
For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.”
God has never changed but if we turn our back on God then He turns His back on us. If we profess to be children of God, then our trust must be in God. God knows how to look after those who trust Him and who fear Him but the hand of God is against the ungodly.
Why do believers buy guns? Why do they trust more in medication, technology, their own devices than in God IF they truly believe in Him? If we trust more in guns, medication, technology, money, our own devices and if we love pleasure more than God then GOD TURNS HIS BACK ON US.
Has God turned His back on America?
May Jesus bless you
