In traveling about this region of several states, I’ve noticed the many prayer meetings that have been taking place the last three years.  Many of those expressed great concern for the state of our nation and the elections of 2016.  Having won most of those elections I’ve been very interested to see if the prayer meetings would continue.  I’m happy to say many of them are.  However, I have a great concern.

Our Vision Must Increase 1Jim Cymbala, Pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle, says that prayer is born out of a “felt need”.  We felt our need acutely before last fall’s elections.  We could see the persecution of Christians rising in this nation; we could see the degrading of our nation by previous administrations; we felt the growing socialist control over our children, especially if they were in a tax-supported school.  We cried to God out of hearts which felt the need of a change that we couldn’t work.  Many of us believe that God answered those desperate cries and mercifully granted us a President and many other government servants who are, at least, respectful of God, the Bible, and the name of Jesus.  They honor our flag and our Constitution.  Compared to what we’d had for many years, all this is so wonderful it’s easy to think the crisis has passed.  But don’t be deceived!

What caused us to be in the death struggle for the life of our nation has Continue reading →

On April 27th, President Trump did an astounding thing!  He reversed an 80-year-old policy concerning the relation of the national government to education in this land.  With an Executive Order he set as the official policy of the national government to “protect and preserve State and local control over” the nation’s educational system.  That is unprecedented since the national government began to reach into the area of education.  National control of schools has grown for over 80 years.  Now finally, there is an order from the White House to reverse that destructive trend.

Giant Step Toward Educational Freedom 1America’s Founders wanted no such control.  James Madison warned us on the floor of the very first Congress (and remember it was Madison who wrote most of the Constitution!) of the destruction that would come if the national government ever got involved in education.  It would mean that a few people in the national government could control the thinking of the rest of the nation by what it allowed, or disallowed, to be taught in the schools.

We’ve watched as the national Court system has said Continue reading →

In the first two years of our War for Independence from England, George Washington’s army had very few victories.  They were out-manned, out-gunned, and out-supplied.  Yet they refused to give up and clung tenaciously to the hope of liberty.  And some miracles occurred in the winter and spring of 1778 which would begin to fulfill that hope.

As they had marched into Valley Forge to establish their winter camp, Washington spoke of how this was a most remarkable army.  Though just volunteer farmers, they had stood up to the British army, the greatest in the world, with dogged determination.  Even now, as they struggled into their winter camp, their sacrifice was evident.  Many had clothes which hung in threads, exposing their naked bodies to the cold.  Washington recorded how one could trace their steps by the path of blood left by many who had no shoes of any sort.  That winter over 2000 of the 6000 man army would die from lack of food and exposure to the elements.  Yet, they stayed.  Their love of liberty meant more than any physical hardship they were experiencing.

God Aids Those Committed to Liberty 1And in answer to prayer, God sent a man all the way from Continue reading →
