How does our nation turn it around? What steps must we take? How does our nation heal?
.
The apostle Peter said this about JESUS:
"HE HIMSELF bore our sins
in HIS body on the cross,
so that we might die to sin
and live to righteousness;
for by HIS wounds you were healed."
A nation full of:
- mommies who hunger and thirst for righteousness
- daddies who hunger and thirst for righteousness
- children who hunger and thirst for righteousness
- citizens who hunger and thirst for righteousness
- aliens who hunger and thirst for righteousness
If the above were the case, then:
- ...our homes would be transformed
- ...our schools would be transformed
- ...our workplaces would be transformed
- ...our cities, towns, and countryside would be transformed
- ...our nation would be transformed...
It takes more than the little phrase,
"God bless, America!"
Blessed people are described, by JESUS, in HIS Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5) by how they live. It takes action on our part. It takes all of us to step up and live differently to be BLESSED. It's time for:
*a reframe*
*a reformation*
*a conversion*
*a transformation*
Want transformation?
It begins with you and me!
AMERICA: BLESS GOD!
JESUS says that BLESSED people:
~are poor in spirit~
~mourn over their sin~
~are meek / gentle (willing to follow HIS lead)~
~hunger and thirst for righteousness~
Scripture says that Jesus is our Righteousness.
Listen to Him!
Live like Him!
It's time to grow up in JESUS, America!
Want to know how to live a blessed life?
I plan to continue the conversation here for the next few months...
BLESSED! OH, THE JOY!
