Shalom,
Just wanted to share a couple of thoughts with you today regarding the times that we’re living in. I went to school during the times when we had daily prayer in our classrooms. We memorized and quoted Psalms 100 and Psalms 23. We also memorized and said the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of the United States. As a child I felt that these things were what we were supposed to do…it was never questioned why we did this.. it was a normal part of life back then.
I wholeheartedly believe that when prayer was taken out of our schools a moral decline took place that negatively affected generations of young people. But! Praise be to our God,! Currently we read and hear about spiritual revivals are taking place in schools and on college campuses across this nation.
I believe It’s because the righteous are rising up in prayer declaring and decreeing that the generations of this nation will serve The one and only true God! standing firm in the faith!
Yet! in the midst of good news, we also see that there’s a lot of shaking taking place in the world today.
We see that this shaking is taking place in the 7 areas that influences the society in which we live; such as our government, family, religion, business, education, media, arts and entertainment. The very foundation of each of them are no longer solid or firm. What was once called wrong is now called right and what was once called right is now called wrong.
This shaking affects the believers of Christ as well as those who are unbelievers of Christ.
In Psalm 11:3 we’re asked a powerful question which I believe individually we must answer daily as we witness many end-time prophetic words coming to pass right before our eyes!
Psalms 11:3 AMP If the foundations of a godly society are destroyed. What can the righteous do?
There are 3 key words in this verse:
Foundation: the underlying basis for something such as a building or a spiritual TRUTH!
Can: be able to, or permitted to
Righteous: being in conformity with what is morally upright and good.
Now let’s paraphrase this verse;
If the spiritual truths of God’s Word and established ways are destroyed. What will the upright and just people who walk in conformity to what is morally right are able to do/permitted to do?
2 Chronicles 7:14 gives us a clear answer for such a shakeup in the society that we’re living in.
WE MUST PRAY!
2 Chronicles 7:14 AMP And My people, who are called by my name, humble themselves, and pray and seek( crave, require as a necessity) My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear them from heaven, and forgive their sins and heal their land.
James 5:16 The heartfelt persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much; when put into action and made effective by God-it is dynamic and can have tremendous power!
So, in closing what can we do as God’s righteous ones on the earth in times such as these? WE CAN PRAY!
There is such a cry in the earth for the people of God in America to pray! There’s many prayer movements rising up across our nation that are praying night and day I like to call them “Open Heaven Pray-ers I believe that we’re about to see and experience the heavens shake on behalf of the prayers that are going up daily.
There’s a Move of God moving across this nation with His power and Glory!
One last thought I must leave you with. In the midst of all the shakings in the land. “JESUS IS OUR UNSHAKABLE FOUNDATION” he is and will always be a firm foundation, a solid rock that the righteous can stand on! Amen and Amen
Let’s continue to pray for lost souls to come to know the Lord as their personal savior. Let’s also pray that righteousness will rain down upon this nation! Our God, the Great I AM will answer His people!
Blessings to all,
