"The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master's crib, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand."
The children of GOD have made it a habit of seeing how far they can manage without letting GOD have HIS rightful place. The Israelites continuously turned from GOD and it brought about defeat and destruction. You would think they would learn from their mistakes???
But America is doing the same! The leaders are certainly doing their part to lead us down the "path of destruction", but the real BLAME rests on the individuals.
"We The People" individually "USE TO BE" a prayer army that was revered and respected as none other prior. Now, rogue countries flaunt their false gods in our face and dare us to do anything about it. We have forfeited our vaunted position in the world for political correctness and appeasement.
While studying a book called The Harbinger it is pointed out that Isaiah 9:10 was quoted by numerous politicians after the 9-11 terrorist attacks. Isaiah 9:10 says "The bricks are fallen down, but we will build with hewn stones: the sycomores are cut down, but we will change them into cedars." The verse sounds good, but it was an indictment AGAINST the children of Israel for taking their eyes (focus) off the GOD who granted then success. They were going to build stronger, mightier fortresses to withstand there enemies. Instead, their enemies prevailed against them.
America was sent a warning on September 11, 2001 and we responded much the same as Israel centuries ago. Galatians 6:7 reminds us that "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
Our only hope is found in 2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
Individually, we MUST return to HIM and pray it is not too late!
