“The worry of the Lord is to hate evil…” (Proverbs eight:13)
The extra you worry God, the extra you hate evil. One thing in you fights it. We live in a time the place folks suppose grace means you’ll be able to stay any method you need to stay. However to revere the Lord is to hate evil and sin. We have to get our requirements and convictions again up. God hasn’t modified, and His Phrase has not modified both.
God calls us to like Him with all of our coronary heart, thoughts, soul, and power. He additionally tells us to like our neighbor as we love ourselves. However loving our neighbor doesn’t imply we have to hold silent about infants being torn aside and murdered and the Supreme Courtroom redefining what marriage is. There comes some extent the place we now have to face up and say, “That isn’t proper!” In America, for those who destroy the egg of a bald eagle, you’ll be fined $250,000 and put in jail for as much as 5 years. However it’s acceptable to destroy the egg and embryo of a child. These birds have extra rights than human youngsters!
Historical past data a outstanding account of the destruction of an historic metropolis. Watchmen on the wall had the large accountability of looking ahead to approaching hazard. Sensing folks resented false alarms; the watchmen remained quiet regardless that they noticed one thing coming that regarded harmful. Regrettably, not lengthy after, the enemy did come. The town was destroyed when it might have been saved. Later, somebody erected a small memorial and inscribed these phrases: “Right here stood a city that was destroyed by silence.”
If America is destroyed, it will likely be destroyed by silence – within the pulpits, within the pews, and on the voting packing containers. If infants are destroyed, they’ll be destroyed by silence. If the morality of the God-fearing, the faith-based nation we have been birthed in is destroyed, it will likely be destroyed by the silence of the church of Jesus Christ. Pray this prayer right this moment for our nation:
“Father, we simply pray proper now for America. Initially, we repent. We come to you, and we repent, Lord, that America is swimming in a sewer of violence, adultery, immorality, abortion, homosexuality, selfishness, and greed. We repent of our sins. We hear you calling us again to you, and we need to love what you’re keen on, and we need to hate what you hate in our lives. Lord, give us boldness on this hour. Assist us to talk the reality in love as by no means earlier than. We pray for a mighty outpouring of your repentance on this nation. Amen.”
