One Nation

Defiant Toward God
Dedicated to Selfishness
Hating Liberty and Justice in Favor of Anarchy

God bless America. These words have been uttered in church and patriotic gatherings throughout the centuries. President after president, regardless of their religious affiliation, has called down the blessing of God on this nation.

Without doubt we have shared in the irrefutable favor of a Sovereign God who has given to us and kept us safe. We are among the wealthiest people in the world. Even our poor enjoy amenities and comforts that the rest of the world knows nothing about. We, like our cousin Israel, have been blessed by God because we chose to stand for Him and His principles. Or, at least we tried. Our people were among the first to experience freedoms that had never been seen before. Opportunities have flourished. No matter what the statistics say, we are still a nation of great power and wealth.


And so we grew up with much, and we continue to gorge ourselves on the pleasures that this world pumps out at a rate that is almost frightening. We love ourselves, our idols, our food, our drink, our stuff, our pleasures, our knowledge, and we have kicked God in the rear. And still we say, God bless America.

How audacious of us. How utterly and ridiculously arrogant. We call down blessing as if, by pure association, we have been deserving of such a thing.

Would we have called down blessing on Sodom? Would we have called down blessing on Germany as it slaughtered God’s chosen people? Would we call down blessing on ISIS as they martyr countless Christians?

I think it’s ridiculous to even imagine doing such a thing. So let me ask, how then can you call down blessing on a country with no morals? How can you call down blessing on a nation that kills the unborn at a rate of well over six hundred thousand a year (CDC Data)? How can you ask for God to be generous and protective of a nation that despises His name and all that He stands for?


Christians of America, wake up! What are you doing? You pray to get a man elected who has had multiple wives, multiple affairs, and has spoken of women in the most repulsive way? Yet, was it not you who denounced President Clinton on his infidelities? Tell me, is it a case of serious hypocrisy, or have our standards just plummeted?

I have heard that, by his election, Christians of this nation have spoken. If that is so, what on earth are we saying?! That party is more important than morality? Not to say that his opponent, Mrs. Clinton, was any better. What I think was said was this, “Screw you God, we want our own god. We want one from among ourselves, with low moral standards. We will hold each one to a god-like status as we devour each other like wolves with our words. We will be petty. We will mock each other and call the other godless, sinful, and hypocritical. We will call for peace as we go for the throat every time.”

THAT is what America has said. THAT is what we want. For once can we be honest about it? I for one am sick of BOTH political parties. I am tired of my own people. America, you sicken me. Your desire for selfish pleasure is appalling. This nation, person by person, state by state, political body by political body, and yes, I am sad to say that even in most cases, American church by American church is more focused on their own selfish, self-righteous, hypocritical, immoral, idolatrous, and hate filled ways. We are distracted by the minute so that we miss that monster that has swooped in to devour us.

So, NO, I will NOT be calling down blessing on a nation like this one. I WILL NOT be asking for God’s abundance. We have gorged ourselves on what was given to us. We have gotten in bed with every religion, whim, and disgusting desire that has crossed our disturbed minds. We seek out ways to deceive each other. We know nothing of love or peace. We dream up new ways to defiles ourselves. What madness is this?

How can we still call ourselves a Godly nation? We are not one nation under God. We are one nation standing AGAINST God!


We are in danger of our arrogance coming back to bite us. So when things start going downhill, and you decide to pray for this country, I challenge you, don’t pray for its blessing or for its restoration. Instead pray that as the destruction comes and Rome, under a different name, begins to crumble. That God has mercy, and that many come to Him. Because in the end, there is only room for ONE nation, ONE Kingdom, and ONE Lord over all, HIM!
