Prophetic Words We Are Afraid to Say…

Series #2: Trump & the Founding Fathers

Our nation needs healing! No matter which topic one talks about regarding America’s families, jobs, laws, economy, civic duty, culture, lifestyles, religious institutions—they all need healing. America has been celebrating its sin for sometime now. There is rarely a mention of what is right and just by God’s standards in today’s news. Man has come to trust in his decisions on what is good and proper—what meager standards man chooses. Society will eventually break down when one trusts solely in oneself and whatever ‘fix-its’ a society can produce.

God birthed America and only God can heal America. But, God works through people—people of character, people of commitment to truth, people who oppose evil and strive to do good, and people who are not afraid to call on God.

If you do not know much about our Founding Fathers (the true unabridged version of their lives) all you need to do is visit the website (www.wallbuilders.com) or read the books of David Barton to learn the many truths about the men and women who risked everything for truth, freedom, and personal happiness.

It was not politicians that designed and constructed America but people who were driven by God’s principles and common sense, which gave us the documents that guides America today. Here are some facts about these Founding Fathers:

ü Almost all were businessmen.

ü They were self-made and successful.

ü Each was a common-sense philosopher of sorts.

ü Most owned land; some a lot of land.

ü They were not afraid to criticize others and use verbal abuse.

ü They supported the ridicule of the King of England and his family.

ü They used their own money to finance their efforts against the political powers of their day.

ü Most were not overly religious but believed in God.

ü All felt they had a moral obligation to assert freedom from tyranny.

ü They distrusted large government because they thought it bred political corruption and wanted a smaller and simpler form of government.

Who does this remind you of in our upcoming election? I am not promoting that you vote for Donald Trump, but I find it strikingly prophetic that maybe God is offering America a chance to get its act together. However, I do have a warning—do not look to whoever becomes President but rather God who can place someone in power that can be influenced by Him. A person whose heart is not hardened nor has the mark of the beast, a person the Christian church can reach with the Gospel of Christ.

We must never look to Washington to fix our problems so I believe God is calling the Church to send their prayers to Him, to be willing to be bold when called upon to witness to its leaders, in short, to bring repentance and the power of Christ into the civic arena so America can be healed and re-birthed. Our Founding Fathers were people of principle that did not resist the Gospel of Christ in making their decisions and so also should the next President be, if America is to be healed.
