What are the underlying causes of America's growing divisiveness?Mark 3:24-26King James Version24And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.25And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.26And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.America, awaken from your slumber! Why do you erect altars to false gods of failing nations, to entities that demand but cannot deliver? Why do you mistake darkness for light? In your pursuit of peace, you have forsaken the God who granted you victory and prosperity. Why have you betrayed Me, the one true God, your ultimate Creator? My command was to welcome foreigners and showcase My power, not to allow their demons to infiltrate and lead you astray from Me, the only God. America, repent and return to Me, and I will shower you and your descendants with My mercy. Come back to Me, the One who has loved you from the moment of your inception. Oh, America, return to Me!1 Thessalonians 5:20-21English Standard Version20Do not despiseprophecies,21buttest everything; hold fast what is good.Could this be God's response to a glaring inquiry?#AmericaAwaken #FalseGods #DivineGuidance #SpiritualAwakening #GodsMercy #ReturnToGod #Repentance #DivineLove #DivineMercy #UnityInFaith

When the world we live in goes from bad to worse, how should we react as true Christians? Our #VerseOfTheWeek reminds us to take caution and to do what is right and good: https://lnkd.in/dNwSa3bf[Ephesians 5:16, 11, 15, Easy English Bible]These are bad times, so use every moment well… People who belong to the dark do wrong things. Never join in with wrong things like that. Those things have no good purpose. But instead, show how wrong those things really are… So, you must be very careful how you live. Live like people who understand what is right and good. Do not live like people who do not understand anything.#BibleStudy #IglesiaNiCristo #ChristianInspiration #ChristianQuotes #DailyMotivation #DailyHope #MorningDevotionalhttps://lnkd.in/d6zDj_fG

You don't have to search far to find people who call evil good and good evil. Such is the state of godless people who follow (knowingly or not) Satan, the father of lies, rather than Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the life. It happens every day all around us. How do we, as Christians, recognize it and respond to it?Here's the related January 13 devotional from my Next Step Devotions book, based on Matthew 12:22-24. https://lnkd.in/e-Xp6hTJ

The Kings ParleyAnd Jephthah sent messengers unto the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What hast thou to do with me, that thou art come against me to fight in my land?Judges 11:12 KJVThis is Jepthah's first outing as a monarch. Notice the change in language to let Ammonites know there's a king in the palace. He is speaking in the first person singular to let Ammon know the case is now his. Read that again. Wikipedia reports that, '' In diplomatic letters, such as letters of credence, it is customary for monarchs to use the singular first-person (I, me, my) when writing to other monarchs, while the majestic plural is used in royal letters to a president of a republic''. In this case, Jephthah used it in a parley. A parley is a conference of opposing side in a warfare meant either to intimidate into submission or reach a truce without bloodshed. Our thought is that Jephthah did not require grooming or training in this. He had been doing this in unofficial capacity for existence since he was driven from the fathers house. Today was just another day to confront another village bully. Isn't it significant how God can use our experience in accomplishing destiny? Others were afraid of the King of Ammon, Jephthah gave the man history. Prov.4:7 makes it clear to get wisdom in all you get. When you get wisdom, you will be able to advance strong offence against the enemy. Jephthah had wisdom. In your case, are you familiar with the strategies the enemy is using? Do you have the word for the spiritual parley? That's the secret of winning. Good morning.

One God. Moral truths. Good and evil. Made in God's image. All life is precious. Free will. Ten Commandments. Responsible for one's actions. These are the crux of Judeo-Christian values.https://lnkd.in/gyt2qEYN #JudeoChristianvalues #moralfoundation #Westerncivilization #theology #corevalues #TenCommandments
