Sometimes I think God is just going to let this country fall. That would really get our attention. Even if we all turned back to God and He restored America, the process of slowly losing faith would begin again, because we are human. There's something about freedom and luxury that makes you forget God and live for yourself. We'd be better off 'spiritually' if we were in bondage, and isn't our spiritual health, more important than our physical? There's something about slavery and persecution that leads us to God.
Romans 5:20 "Moreover the law entered, that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound,"
Not long after Christianity spread through Asia, the horrific persecution began. The thing I'm looking
at is America's history, in that we've always gone though this cycle of a few generations of strong devotion
to God, and then a few generations of falling away and then a revival. I'm discouraged that even if we have
another revival, we'll just fall away again, but maybe we should pray that this time, we have steadfast spirits, repenting hearts, and discernment.
I also think America would be greatly blessed by foreign missionaries.
Mark 6:4 But Jesus said, “Prophets are honored by everyone, except the people of their hometown and their relatives and their own family.”
