There is division in America. That is a fact, no one can doubt that premise. However it is not by politics, but by sin. The division comes from two opposing world views. One is a Biblical worldview and the other is a secular humanist worldview. That is the red line in the sand. Neither side will give in. I will never compromise my Biblical Moral Worldview.
America has a rich tradition of being a nation built on traditional family values, Judeo-Christian values. God ordained us to spread the Gospel around the world and we did that by sending missionaries to far off distant counties. Our mandate came through a prophecy by Vicar Robert Hunt (1586-1608) the first Anglican chaplain of the Jamestown expedition and is renowned for a 1607 prayer and prophecy dedicating the new American land to God. Upon landing at Cape Henry, Hunt planted a seven-foot cross and “declared a covenant in the Gospel would go forth from that shore to the entire world”. Furthermore he stated “we should focus on the mandate to raise up Godly generations after us”.
I will say, we tried. The United States experienced three or four Great Spiritual Awakenings:
First Great Awakening (1730s–1740s): Led by figures like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield, this period focused on personal conviction, redemption, and a shift away from traditional, formal religion.
Second Great Awakening (1790s–1840s): Characterized by camp meetings and the rise of itinerant preachers like Charles Finney, it resulted in significant church growth and reform movements.
Third Great Awakening (1857–1859): Often called the “Businessmen’s Revival,” this movement began with prayer meetings in New York City during a financial crisis and spread nationwide.
Fourth Great Awakening (Late 1960s–early 1970s): Debated by some, this wave is often linked to the “Jesus Movement” and rapid growth in conservative denominations
What America needs is not a new or reformed political party, but another great Spiritual awakening. Our government as it is now is a corrupt “ruling class” entity that does whatever it desires. Two passages in the Bible give us an insight into how the Almighty looks at us. It’s not a pretty sight. One thing I know is that God is not mocked, we will reap what we sow.
1 Timothy1:9-10
“knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,”
Take a look again at some phrases:
- murders; abortion and rage of violence
- fornicators; our sex craved society
- sodomites; the entire gender mafia
- kidnappers; sex slaves
- liars; our government hides and lies constantly
- perjurers; truth has fallen in the street
Read Isaiah 59:1-10: hands defiled with blood, feet that run to evil, no justice, lack of truth, and our thoughts are continually on evil and iniquities.
We need an awakening, repentance and a turning from the evil that permeates our society. The division is caused not by political, but spiritual warfare that divides us more than even a civilian war based on political ideology. We need intercessors more than candidates. We need hungry hearts and souls that long after the Lord. Humility filled with a desire for the things of God. Turning from evil and pushing into the holy place where God resides.
Unfortunately the majority of the American church is living in a daze of the prosperity gospel, feeling they have need of nothing. Bills are paid, money in the bank, but all the while Jesus is knocking on the door of our hearts desiring a deeper relationship with His church.
We need the Ekklesia to become the remnant that pursues the holiness of God more than the pleasures of the world. Jesus is the only solution for a deprived world. He is our only hope. The world is on a downward path, the Bible tells us for a fact that a spirit of anti-christ will invade the last days. We are there now.
Let me be clear, I am not saying we shouldn’t be involved with politics. We most definitely should. We as Christian Conservatives vote our Biblical values. It is our duty and I believe a mandate from the Lord. Look through the slick commercials and line up your candidate with the Word of God. What I am saying is this…we need a “Great Awakening” to save this country.
Spiritual warfare is real and we must win the spiritual war first and then the awakening will come. Lord Jesus raise up holy intercessors in this time.. You were born for such a time as this.
