If this does not happen, the US will be thrown onto the pile of other dead empires, like Egypt, Assyria, Carthage and Rome. God is not mocked.

The political drama and machinations are all tinsel in the light of Psalm 2.

Yet would it surprise you that President Trump had been elected simply because God may be merciful by giving the USA more time to turn back to Him?

To: Psalm 144

America started out with a startling witness to the Lord — startling by worldly standards. It was a land of pilgrimage, of pioneering, things that needed a great measure of faith to undertake.

I do not believe the Lord desires to lightly let that heritage be wasted before the world. America has had flaws and sins — grievous ones. And yet even in the middle of the flaws and sins, echoes of the Lord’s voice resound.

I believe we can validly pray for the Lord to hear us from the foundation of the world and seed this place and time with the elect — the souls who will believe and thereby attract the Lord’s blessing. Maybe this happened in John Knox era Scotland, where those stern old Calvinists approached the Lord with all the boldness that their theology deemed possible, and asked for something of this sort. And God answered: at one point it was said that “Christians were coming down from the skies” the revivals were so great.

But if this takes place, let us remember after it begins that the glory belongs to the Lord. He is the One who extended to us the possibility of the granted prayer. We didn’t twist His arm for a blessing that was beyond His will. We wouldn’t even have been able to think about such things without His guidance of our minds and hearts.
