I can remember when anyone anywhere could speak out their convictions with total Biblical truths and that would be 'IT'! Said and done! Because simply the majority still held to the validity of God's Word.
Today, many have their own INTERPRETATION of the Word of God and that has been twisted around their lifestyles. All this has done is weaken our country and soon the chords which held the U.S. together will soon snap! Issues being debated in our court systems, taught in our schools and debated on networks have rerouted the minds and souls of men. What are the issues:
*Evolution vs. Creation *Abortion *Stem Cell Research *Homosexual Marriage/1 Man & 1 Woman Marriage *Raising the Bar on Porn *Taking away the freedoms from parents in raising their children.
And I could continue this list with hundreds more.
As our country is now once again being stirred up with the up-coming election, we are witnessing an eruption of emotionally hot topics that have to do with each that I have listed.
One being the food giant Chick-Fil-A and CEO Dan Cathy. Standing strong on his Biblical convictions he states; "We are very much supportive of the family—the biblical definition of the family unit. We are a family-owned business, a family-led business, and we are married to our first wives. We give God thanks for that."
Yet, the battle is on! Big corporation giants in order to fulfill their unBiblical agenda label Cathy as a bigot and unloving; which is typical in this day and age we live.
Though every child of God should never hesitate living out and yes speaking out God's directives on how we should live; the best and most powerful way that we ALSO need to do now is pray!
FAST and PRAY!
Nothing can combat this 'satanic struggle' like prayer! This 'struggle' which is standing on our doorsteps will continue to be and are being fought in court, in the elections and even in our churches. [HEAVEN HELP US!]
Mom's talk to your kids even if they are adults; guide them in God's Word and show them how this is not what God had planned. Then teach them to pray and fast with deep passion and diligence.
Let's pray for our country as it is becoming more and more volatile during the 'LAST DAYS' we now live.
