Hey
Gang: Is that not an awesome warning? And what curses is Moses referring to?- Natural disasters, political confusion and
corruption, crop failures, economic calamities, rebellious youth, rampant
disease, even epidemics of divorce, defeat in war, among many other things,
including giving the nation the kind of
leaders it deserves. Does that not fit
the American society of today?
But what if
they do not heed His words? Moses goes
on and tells us that if the nation refuses to repent, God will deliver it to destruction,
as He did many times throughout
the Old Testament. O, but you say that was under the law and today we are under grace, right? Not quite so. Jesus said to the disciples in Matthew 24, “…not one stone will be left on top of another in this fabulous building” (the Temple). A prophetic word that was fulfilled in 70 A.D.

I recently
received an epistle from Dr. David R. Reagan, a gentlemen that I feel is
blessed by God to be one of His last day prophets. Keep in mind that the sign prophets are
judged by is whether or not their prophecies come true. The title of his epistle is- Is
America Facing A Spiritual Crisis?
In it he
list seven points you might want to research.
The first, God establishes nations and defines their boundaries. Paul in his sermon at Athens said, "God
made from one man every nation of mankind, having determined their appointed
times and the boundaries of heir habitation"
Point
two: God determines when a nation will
cease to exist. A nation can be the most
powerful in the world like Babylon or Russia and God can pull the plug on that
nation. As I look at recorded history
I notice that when a powerful civilization begins to wan there is another that
rises to move into the void. BUT, today,
I see no nation rising to replace the power of the United States. We might want to say that Israel is that
nation but, due to its size, that would not fly with most gurus, however, they
do have a mighty army and they have something no other nations has- the promise
from the throne room of heaven that "I
will never leave you or forsake you".
The third
point: God has a purpose for each nation,
both general and specific. I tend to
believe that God's daily planner is filled to the hilt and, therefore, he does
not waste one iota of time. I tend to agree with Dr. Reagan that God's
purpose for all nations is to provide an atmosphere of freedom, security and
tranquility. I also believe He brings
nations into being with a specific mission.
For Israel it is to be a witness of God.
It is Dr. Reagan's opinion that the purpose of the United Sates was to
evangelize the world for Jesus. But
perhaps our great purpose was to assist in the reestablishment of Israel.
His fourth
point: God blesses and disciplines nations in accordance with their obedience
to Him and their treatment of the Jewish people. God told Abraham
"I will make you a great nation, I will bless you, I will bless those who
bless you, and I will curse those who curse you" (Gen. 12:4-6). My dear sainted Grandma said, the day Germany
began their program of annihilation of God's chosen people, “His days are
numbered.” History is littered with the
cadavers of nations that have persecuted the Jews. I am a firm believer that ISIS, and those
killing machines that have placed bulls eyes on the back of every Jew and
Christian, will be soon find out there is no paradise for those terrorists who
are martyred.
Soooo, I
will close this for today and finish Dr. Reagan's seven points the next
time. I pray you are heeding the Lord's
word to Habakkuk when He said "Look
around and see what I am doing".
Blessings,
Gramps,
