Deuteronomy 11:22 "For if you carefully keep all these commandments which I command you to do—to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways, and to hold fast to Him—
Deuteronomy 11:23 then the LORD will drive out all these nations from before you, and you will dispossess greater and mightier nations than yourselves.
It seems to me that since America started turning their back on God, and living like heathens, we haven't been able to win a decisive victory in any of our recent wars. I can't prove this other than looking back in the Old Testament when Israel wasn't obeying God. They would go out to battle and then turn and run because they couldn't stand against their enemy. God wasn't with them. They would cry out to God and He would point out some sin in their midst. When they removed the sin, they would have victory against their enemies because God was with them again.
When we were a nation that prayed to God and mostly obeyed Him, we were able to defeat our enemies. Not so anymore. We have the bravest soldiers and the most powerful weapons, but we don't have a heart for God as a nation. This pretty much started in the 60's when our nation decided we didn't need God anymore and started pushing Him out of America. If our nation doesn't repent and turn back to God, I don't see any hope for our future as a world power. "No God, No Nation!!" Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord! We need to take that to heart and pray for God's blessings again.
God Bless You!

A Tucson, Arizona Tragedy!
The tragedy this past weekend in Tucson, Arizona is a grim reminder that we live in a fallen world. This young killer took the lives of at least six people including a 9 year old girl and five others. He also wounded many and has totally turned up side down the lives of many families. This senseless killing has affected our nation and everyone is looking for answers. They will never know what went through this killers mind that brought him to this point. I heard many accusations being brought forward but no one has pointed to the real reason these things happen in our world.
The real reason is that we live in a fallen world brought on by mans SIN. When God created this world it was perfect and without pain and suffering. But when Adam sinned, death, pain, and anguish came into our perfect world and corrupted it. This corruption has continued ever since as we witness on a daily basis. This corruption will continue until Jesus creates a new heaven and earth. We need to pray for the families who have been affected by this tragedy as well as for our country. As we get closer to Jesus return, things are going to go from bad to worse. Don't wait until it is too late to give your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You don't want to be left behind when Jesus takes His church out of here.
Romans; 10: 9-10
(that is you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.)
God Bless You!

Jesus The True Shepherd!
John;10:4
And when he brings out his sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
Jesus use this illustration when addressing the Jewish leaders. He told them that He is the true Shepherd and that His sheep know His voice and they won't follow a stranger because they don't know his voice. We are the sheep of His pasture if we truly belong to Him. If you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior you should be able to determine His voice from that of the false teachers. How can you be sure to know His voice? Are you spending time in prayer talking to Him? Do you spend time in the Word every day? If you do, then you should be in tune to know Jesus voice from that of the enemy.
Jesus warns us that in the end times, there will be many false teachers. We are to discern truth from the lie. The only way you'll know for certain what's true and what's not is to be studying His Word every day. You need to know who Jesus is so you aren't deceived when the enemy comes claiming to have the truth. Spend time in the Word every day so you really get to know who Jesus is, and then you'll know it's Him when He calls His sheep.
God Bless You!
