Sometimes politics wants to wear us down.  We fight the good fight, but we become weary.  Tonight I spoke for an hour and a half to a friend of mine who is a pastor.  Bishop Ron Allen commented that Psalm 112 describes me.  I don’t know about that.  All I know is that I am a firm believer that the U.S. Constitution found much of its inspiration from God, and His Word – and I have Faith that God will deal with the country justly. . . the question is, will it be for our righteousness as a nation, or as a fallen people who have become corrupt, debauched, and vicious?

The fight is being fought by more than only us. We battle not only against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12)

We must remember that this is not only our fight.  We must place it in His Hands.  It is for His Glory that the war for America’s soul is being waged, and His ends that the final conflicts will accomplish.
The wages of sin are death.  When we sin, something must die.  But, when we Praise and Glorify Him, victory moves within reach of a blessed and vibrant life.

And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor. — Declaration of Independence.

Psalm 112 King James Version (KJV)

112 Praise ye the Lord. Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord.
His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.
He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
