Justice for a Nation

What is Justice?

Is it just to stand up in defense for a nation that has turned it's back on God?  Is it just to be defensive of a nation that sacrifices it's children on the altars of it's gods?  Is it a just thing to defend a nation that is full of greed, hypocrisy, arrogance, self-indulgence, vanity, and materialism?  We are speaking of a nation whose sins reach up to Heaven because of the innocent blood that cries out from the ground, and for the abundance of her luxuries that have been reaped from her fornication...

"Come out of her..." do not share in her sins, for she has loved a lie, and she has turned her back on the Almighty... she is haughty and she is arrogant and she is defiant against her Creator, and she is about to receive her reward...for who is this nation that she thinks she can escape the judgment for all the abominations she has committed, with no remorse?  Justice demands a reaping for what she has sown... and so it shall be for the superpower of the Western World...

But do not be afraid--people of the Lord--as long as you trust in Him...(Isaiah 26:3) do not be like the rest of the people who follow after the vain things in their hearts; they are content, they are comfortable, and even quite fascinated with their idols: their cars, their houses, their credit cards, their bank accounts, their iPods, their cellphones, their computers, their entertainment, their "superstars", their..."religion"... their games... their "selves"... ...their "idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk..." (Revelation 9) If you do follow after these vain things, then you DO have reason to be afraid...

You want Justice to be exercised?  Do not merely worship God with your mouths and deny Him with your love for material things, with love for power, with self-importance, with arrogance of the heart... worship Him with your actions--with your heart!  Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth; put away the vanity!  Then you will see revival...

Do not be enticed by the cultures of this world, but keep your eyes set upon the King of another Kingdom, whose rule will never end...

God's judgment cannot be held back indefinitely; this land has been warned--repeatedly; we have not listened, but instead have hardened our hearts... repent so you will not be judged with the rest of the nation and the world... "humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord..."
