Pulpit Reflections

What has gone wrong with mankind? Why are we experiencing all the earthquakes, hurricanes, droughts, flooding, violence and fires and whatever other disaster that have come our way?

Romans 1:18, “For God’s wrath and indignation are revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative.” Verse 25, “Because they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the creator who is blessed forever!”

Perhaps the consequences, some of which are listed above, are the result of not being grateful for the everyday blessings such as God’s sunshine, God’s rain and most of all, God’s blessings. 

Malachi 2:2, “If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the Lord of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because you do not lay it to heart.”

God has a warning: If we want to live without God, we will not enjoy His promised benefits. It is time for you to dust off the Bible, confess your selfishness and pride and then trust in Christ from your heart to truly save you and save America!

James 4:7-8, Amplified Bible, “So be subject to God. Stand firm against the devil; resist him and he will flee from you. Come close to God and He will come close to you. (Recognize that you are) sinner, get your soiled hands clean; (realize that you have been disloyal) wavering individuals with divided interest, and purify your hearts (of your spiritual adultery.)”

John 1:12, Amplified Bible, “But to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, rely on) His name.”

We must return to God and the Bible for His blessings and protection. Now is the time to receive Him!
