The nation of America is acting a lot like the Israelis of old. God rescued them blessed them and made them a great Nation, and yet they turned their back on God and His Laws. America has been in the past the most blessed nation in the World, yet as we turn our backs more and more on God's Kingdom principles we are in great danger. The siege ramps of terrorism are being laid against us not because of God, but because of our disobedience. America Turn or Burn!!!
Dare To Believe !!!


20 What miraculous signs and wonders You did in the land of Egypt! You continue to perform them for Israel and the rest of humanity to this day! You have made a great name for yourself among the nations, and we still remember Your great works today.
21 You rescued Your people Israel out of Egypt with miraculous signs and wonders—with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with a power too terrible for words. 22 But You did not stop there, O gracious God. Then You gave them this land, the very land You had promised to their ancestors, an abundant land flowing with milk and honey.
23 They entered this land and conquered it as You led them. But even as they settled in, they refused to listen to Your voice and live as You instructed. They rebelled against Your entire law. So You caused these disastrous consequences to fall on them.
24 Look! The siege ramps are built against the walls of the city. Soon the Chaldeans will begin the assault. Because of war, famine, and disease, the enemy will soon have control of the city. It is all happening as You said it would.

The sad thing is that every time we manage to come back from some kind of defeat we tend to slap ourselves on the back and say how great we are. We're America and we will always bounce back. And swear to become more powerful and determined. Everything have is always attributed to our own might and doing.

Very seldom do we hear people say that what we just went through should serve as a wake-up call and to acknowledge God's overall blessings and protection. As a country we want and look for anyway possible to ignore His blessings... and discipline.

When something bad happens we tend to blame it on the politicians, leaders, and other countries for having the "nerve" to do something against us. This is the very same attitude that the Israelites had... as you mention... yet, God saw fit to take action against them... fur the purpose of making them see their ways and to look back to Him.

So, we are in line for the same type of correction and discipline soon. Then the cycle will start all over again... Political speeches are all the same... "We'll arise again... bigger...better than before.
