Summoned By Jesus

The Lord works in mysterious ways that confirm His words, meanings and instructions to us. Certain of His promptings were mentioned in my posts on 7/19/2023 and 10/17/2023. Today in the message from Dutch Sheets’ GiveHim15 blog, I sensed some of these confirmations…here is a paraphrase of today’s message:

GiveHim15   December 12, 2023   Finding the Old Road

The intent of satan, the author of evils, is to stop the gospel of Christ’s Kingdom from succeeding. Though his spiritual war manifests in physical wars and political beliefs, we must never forget that the roots and causes of all antichrist efforts are spiritual. The war for the soul of America springs from this battle. Raised up to trumpet Christ’s good news to the ends of the earth and having become a key player in this righteous cause, America has become a primary target of satan and his kingdom. He wants to steal our destiny because it is linked to Christ’s cause.

Satan doesn’t care whether he rules people by force or through intellectual ideals such as paganism, secularism, or hedonism. As long as he can keep people from the truth of the gospel and the spiritual freedom it produces, he is satisfied. Don’t be distracted by liars and propagandists who oppose and try to define us.

Consider the revealing words of George Washington and John Quincy Adams.     “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion, and morality are indispensable supports. It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.” (George Washington)     “The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” (John Quincy Adams)

We were born for such a time as this (Esther 4:14). You determined the time in which we would live and the boundaries of our habitation, (Acts 17:26), which means we live now because You willed it. <me – ‘this moment in time’…Kairos..>

And this Kairos moment of redemption will not only affect individuals, but our nation and the nations of the world. (But it is not our strength or wisdom that gives us victory, but God’s power and wisdom.) <me – and men need to move into and fulfill the role God called them to.>

Prayer: Father, lead us back to the old road, the ancient path (Jeremiah 6:16)…strengthen and empower us to re-capture our roots and destiny as a nation, and cast off the shackles of false ideologies and demonic strongholds. We decree that neither Marxism, wokism, secularism, hedonism, paganism, nor any other mindset will prevail against God‘s purposes. We decree that ungodly forces will not prevail. We bind every stronghold of deception working in our land and loose the revelation that brings conviction and truth. And we prophesy to the wind of the Spirit to blow on the dry bones of America. We pray and decree all of this in Jesus’ name. Amen.
