Blessed by the Presence of God's People

Let there be no mistake.  Our Creator has blessed this nation due to the presence of His people.  There are those that would argue against the fact that we began as a Christian nation.  They would deny that the presence of God's people, who came seeking to worship without fear of reprisal, resulted in many untold blessings and liberties we enjoy today.  When we look at the Word of God, we find a myriad of examples where people and nations were blessed because of the presence of God’s people in their midst. The Abrahamic Covenant specifically spells out that God will bless the nations that bless His people.  This not only applies to the nation of Israel, but to the people of God in Christ as well.  Our nation seems to be seeking to rid herself of God’s blessings.  We have become a nation which seeks to embrace tolerance for other beliefs and practices while excluding those which are based in the truths of God's Word.  Our nation seems to be embracing those nations which are bent upon the destruction of Israel and the Christian faith. Secularists are seeking to rewrite the history of the founding of our nation to diminish the impact Christianity has had in our history.  The further our nation retreats from God’s truth and His people, the further from His blessings and providence we go.
