2 Chronicles 7:14 (NLT)

^14 :Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land."

The recent willful actions of our judicial and executive branches of government must certainly crush the heart of God, as they do each of us as Christians. However, as we celebrate this weekend the birthday of our great country let us remember God's promise quoted in the text above.

He will forgive our land, IF we turn back to Him. If we continue to go further from God, there is a price to be paid.

Praise God, He has a remnant, that will do and stand for what is Godly. If our country repents, it can be great again as it has been for such a long time.

Today, July 4th, America is 239 years old. Happy Birthday America! God's word says if we train our children in what is right, when they're older they will not depart from that teaching. Certainly 239 years of age is old enough for moral clarity and Godliness to return to this nation. if we pray!

As a veteran I'm proud to have served to protect a great America. As a Pastor my heart is broken over what some have chosen to do to "fundamentally change" the direction for our nation. God, bring America to repentance and help your children to stand for what is right!

With our votes we have the ability to reverse the course which some have set for our nation. We can make a difference, if we pray and repent on behalf of our nation's sins. I'm not giving up hope. God is bigger than His enemies. God Bless America again, as we humble ourselves and repent.

Love ya, Pastor Phil
