When did America go blind?

 

Isaiah 33:22 says, “For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us.”

This obviously connects directly to the three branches of government. The framer’s definitely had this concept in mind when drafting the Constitution. Although lately, Democrats are beginning to believe that government will save them from all the horrors of earth rather than the power of God. For example, Democrats try to diminish racial differences with affirmative action; however, they only make difference larger by teaching minorities a dependence on regulation rather than hard work. Hard work is a Biblical principle {Proverbs 12:24; Ephesians 4:28- which could be a later blog in itself} and one this country was built on à the Puritan/ Protestant work ethic. Another example, Dems want socialized medicine claiming healthcare is a “right” yet they disregard the fact that it will destroy an undeniable difference between America and the rest of the world- top notch health insurance.

The list could go on and on with programs that Democrats misguided proposals. Where did America go wrong? When did America go blind? Why did we start to look to the government rather than God for our answers? How did we lose sight of the fact all governments are upheld by the hand of God? I don’t have the answer but it happened. For example, former Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore made a national splash when he refused to remove the 10 commandment from State Court House. He was later removed for his actions. How quickly we are fooled by the progressives in this country who think America wasn’t founded on Christian principles? How quickly we forget the beliefs that framed our Constitution? How quickly do we forget the words of James Madison, “We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We’ve staked the future of all our political institutions upon our capacity…to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.”

We must have a revival in this country. We must try our eyes back to the Creator. If we fail to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments, Beatitudes, and teachings of Christ rather than the power of government, then we will fail to exist as a nation.
