Proverbs 14:34

Righteousness exalteth a nation:

but sin is a reproach to any people.

Jeremiah 18:8-12

If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. 9 And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it; 10 If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.

11 Now therefore go to, speak to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I frame evil against you, and devise a device against you: return ye now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings good. 12 And they said, There is no hope: but we will walk after our own devices, and we will every one do the imagination of his evil heart.

See if you can spot the odd one out

Earthquakes, floods, droughts, financial collapse ,terrorism , God s blessing , hurricanes

Of corse God s blessings is the oddity . Yet there are many who would believe the entire list is hommonious . In there ignorance , they think that the devastating things that are happening to this nation are nothing more than nature s rumblings.

The cause

USA today reported that 50-60 % admit to adultery

Fornication According to the Oklahoma state department of health

1 in 5 are infected with a sexual virus

380 thousand rapes or sexual assaults in one year

Fueling bad sexual desire which is out side of marriage

America is the largest exporter of pornography

Murder:We have allowed the murder of 50 million innocent children to supply no consequence for there act of promiscuity

Theft :It averages to about 50 billion dollars in goods stolen a year

Greed :on every level in society today no longer wanting to earn it but it is deserved

In a poll 91 percent admit to lying regularly

And we wonder why our nation is not doing to well

We are no different than Israel, who thru the ages kept straying from God s commandment into lawlessness from there they lost there promised blessing of health which was conditional upon righteousness ,Deuteronomy 28:15-20

But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: 16 Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field. 17 Cursed shall be thy basket and thy store. 18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. 19 Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out. 20 The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.

Mean while despite our national sins a blind a mystified world points to everything from coffee to hot dogs for the cause for the increase in cancer

As the blessings of God have been removed from the soil

We think nothing of spraying millions of tons of poisons on our crops to try and combat the problem of pestilence

The influence of generations in evolutionary philosophy has people thinking we are merely witnessing mother nature

The thought that we have somehow offended God, dosent even cross our mind

America the beautiful is no longer beautiful

Violence and sin has made her ugly

America, America God has shed his grace on thee

But now we are reaping the fruits of our sins , it is time for you to be told The truth we are a nation in rebellion turning from our founding principles established on biblical truth.

there is a classic American song that said

America, America God mend thine every flaw, confirm thy soul in self control, thy liberty in law

What does the song writer mean thy liberty in law.

A city who's drivers are lawful, has the liberty of flowing , problem free traffic , but if drivers refuse to obey traffic laws there will be accidents, pain and chaos

Winston Churchill was right when he said if a nation will not be ruled by God, it will be ruled by anarchy

We are suffering the aftermath of our nations loss of self control and consequently. Lawlessness , here again is just some of the chaotic fruit of not following God s law
