What does the second term as president for Mr. Donald Trump mean for our nation? This nation has been given a second chance to turn to God. How many chances do you think we will get? Just a little history about our nation.
When Jacob, who was renamed Israel, passed the birthright promises that God had made to Abraham, to Joseph’s two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, Israel was very clear what each son would become. He said that Ephraim would become a multitude of nations, and Manasseh would become a great nation. Ephraim became the British Commonwealth, the only nation to fulfill that promise. Manasseh became a great nation and was placed second to his younger brother Ephraim. A Multitude of nations is very easy to identify because the British Commonwealth spread all over the world into Africa, the most identifiable being South African, Australia also a British nation, New Zealand, Hong Kong, India, and the list goes on. The sun never set on a British possession. Because Manasseh came second, it is clear that the greatest nation to come into being after the British Commonwealth was our own United States of America. These are the only two nations in the world to fit Israel’s prophesy.
These nations did not become great and powerful on their own. They became great and powerful because of a promise God made to Abraham, which was passed on to Isaac, passed on to Jacob, who became Israel and passed on to Ephraim and Manasseh. You can read all about these promises in Genesis 48. One more identifying sign that God gave to these two nations so that they could be identified in the later days was the sign of controlling the gates of their enemies. What is a gate? It is a passageway for trade or moving ships from one place to another. The most famous being the Strait of Gibraltar, and then the Suez Canal, the Panama Canal, just to name a few that these two nations controlled. You can read about that in Genesis 22: 16-17. These two nations no longer control these gates and are no longer great because they never turned to God.
What did God promise the Israelites, who we are? In Deuteronomy 28:1, God said that if we diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which He commanded, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. This promise has never been kept. We failed to obey His voice and keep His commandments. We became a great nation because of the promises to Abraham. We have never been set high above all the other nations of the earth.
If you read all of Deuteronomy 28, you will see what could have been and what is reality at this present time. When you get to verse 43, you will be very close to where we are right now. We are on the brink of that very verse happening to us. Everyone who voted for Donald Trump could see this happening very soon.
Why are we playing with this fire? Why do we not turn to God? God has also promised that if we will turn to Him, He will fight our battles for us. James 4:7. What are those battles that we can not fight? Ephesians 6:12.
We have been given another chance to turn to God. But what does turning to God mean? Deuteronomy 28:1 tells you what it means to turn to God. So simple. What are those commandments that God commanded? Exodus 20:1-17. Are we going to trash this gift of a God-fearing President again? Will we let four more years go by and return to what we just got rid of? It is totally up to you.
If the deep state is not eradicated in the next four years, then I firmly believe they will have devised a way to gain control again. Can you see another chance happening?
In conclusion, we did not become this nation because we were so good and strong. We became this nation because of a promise to Abraham called birthright promises. We have never been blessed as a nation high above all other nations. We failed to become that nation because we would not keep God’s commandments. We have never turned to God; we have always turned away from God. But God loves His people and is still waiting for us to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9. How long will God wait until His wrath comes?
I have a prayer I pray, taken from the Book of Job. Job 14:12-15. Yes, God’s wrath is going to come. What do you think God will say to us when we come before His throne, His judgment seat?
Mat 7:23 And then I will confess to them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from Me, you who work lawlessness.
