A Christian Nation

Leviticus 19:1-4, “The LORD spoke to Moses, saying: Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them: You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy. You shall each revere your mother and father, and you shall keep my Sabbaths: I am the LORD your God. Do not turn to idols or make cast images for yourselves: I am the LORD your God.”

As early as the Mayflower Compact the United States was founded upon its faith in God through Christ. Those who would seek to destroy or limit religious speech or public practices of faith fail to remember that basic truth of our existence and founding. It is time that we recognize whereupon we have begun our journey.

Prayer: Father, deliver us from our failed practices of faith. Strengthen us in Your Holy service. Help us remember that You set our Nation on a course of Christian belief and Christian hope. May those who seek to destroy our Nation hear Your powerful Word Jesus Christ. In Jesus’ Name we pray. AMEN
