AMEN SISTER AND GRACE TO ALL CHRISTIAN PATRIOTS!

Psalms 120:1
A Song of Ascents. In my distress I cried to the LORD, And He heard me.

Psalms 120:2
Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips And from a deceitful tongue.

Psalms 120:3
What shall be given to you, Or what shall be done to you, You false tongue?

Psalms 120:4
Sharp arrows of the warrior, With coals of the broom tree!

Psalms 120:5
Woe is me, that I dwell in Meshech, That I dwell among the tents of Kedar!

Psalms 120:6
My soul has dwelt too long With one who hates peace.

Psalms 120:7
I am for peace; But when I speak, they are for war.
(NKJV)

“Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar.”

- Psalm 120:5

As a Christian you have to live in the midst of an ungodly world, and it
is of little use for you to cry “Woe is me.” Jesus did not pray that you
should be taken out of the world, and what he did not pray for, you need
not desire. Better far in the Lord’s strength to meet the difficulty, and
glorify him in it. The enemy is ever on the watch to detect inconsistency
in your conduct; be therefore very holy. Remember that the eyes of all are
upon you, and that more is expected from you than from other men. Strive
to give no occasion for blame. Let your goodness be the only fault they
can discover in you. Like Daniel, compel them to say of you, “We shall not
find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him
concerning the law of his God.” Seek to be useful as well as consistent.
Perhaps you think, “If I were in a more favourable position I might serve
the Lord’s cause, but I cannot do any good where I am”; but the worse the
people are among whom you live, the more need have they of your exertions;
if they be crooked, the more necessity that you should set them straight;
and if they be perverse, the more need have you to turn their proud hearts
to the truth. Where should the physician be but where there are many sick?
Where is honour to be won by the soldier but in the hottest fire of the
battle? And when weary of the strife and sin that meets you on every hand,
consider that all the saints have endured the same trial. They were not
carried on beds of down to heaven, and you must not expect to travel more
easily than they.
They had to hazard their lives unto the death in the high places of the
field, and you will not be crowned till you also have endured hardness as
a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
Therefore, “stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

C.H.SPURGEON

SOLI DEO GLORIA!

I pray that the President will always love You O Lord, with all his heart, with all his soul, with all his mind, and with all his strength and that he will love his neighbor as himself. Make him aware that there is no greater command than this.
—Mark 12:30-31
