I was talking with someone today about the problems we are experiencing in America, which are many. He was sharing who was to blame for the downfall of America. He mentioned liberalism, money hungry lawyers, corrupt politicians, and on and on. Those things are certainly not good things if you have a biblical worldview. But that is not the overall problem is it?
The real problem is found in the spiritually powerlessness of individual Christians, which leads to spiritually powerless homes, which in turn leads to spiritually powerless churches. Individuals do not place an emphasis upon God today and so they corrupt their families and then you put those powerless families into a church and the church becomes powerless as well. A nation of powerless churches cannot stand in the wake of the temporal landslide we are witnessing today.
The solution is to seek personal revival (for you the one reading this), so that perhaps our families will experience revival and then perhaps our churches will have revival. When true revival comes the nation will be then be impacted by the restoration of God sent power.
Perhaps instead of watching church on TV, the radio or some streaming mechanism you should try attending church again. Perhaps instead of spending so much time in front of a TV or computer you spend that time in the Bible and perhaps instead of talking to everyone about how bad life is, perhaps you spend more time in prayer lifting up God for His grace.
You are thinking I cannot do that. If you cannot do that don't expect revival to be sent from above and just sit back doing the same old things and watch your churches close their doors and your nation continue to spiral out of control downward. If you cannot do those things aforementioned go look in the mirror and embrace the idea that the person you are looking at is a part of the problem in America. A nation rises and falls from a spiritual standpoint based upon how God's people respond to God. How are you responding to Him?
