Has I sit watching the news day to day, I have to wonder how much the American people can take before they come to a breaking point. Gun sells are up, heirloom seeds are selling at a new record, record number of people are showing up to town hall meetings and tea parties, the White House and the main stream news media portray these passionate people has organized and just crazy.
Daily people are showing up to these meetings, screaming at their representatives, because they demand answers. Yet they continue to get the same scripted answers and the run around by the talking heads of D.C. bureaucracy. Yet, they say its not going to happen and there is not a final draft out of the House, and the Senate isn't even close to a final resolution yet.
So how can they say things are not in there or guarantee something, when there is not a final bill yet on socialized medicine. Lets just call it what it is.
While this is going on, no a word is said about Cap and Trade, or the Hate Crimes Bill or anything else that is going on in D.C. The President along with the media have successfully taken the attention off of the national debt and the sorrowing unemployment numbers out of the public arena and yesterday, economist announced the end of the recession, yet people like me cannot find work.
Today the news outlets casually mentioned that overall unemployment numbers are down while last weeks numbers climed, what they do not report, how many of those people have fallen off of the system, because their insurance has been exhausted. They consistently skew the numbers to the reality of how bad things truly are. How can the economy improve while people are loosing their jobs, cannot find work and still loosing their homes? How? The fed and the treasury continue to throw money at the problem, but does it truly fix the problem, no. It only pushes out the inevitable.
Then the fed reported that things are looking up. What they failed to mention would be the selling of national debt to foreign buyers, at first it could not be sold, then it was sold and 10 days later, the fed bought the debt from the same buyers that had bought the debt from the treasury, 42% of the debt is what was sold and then bought up. Reported on by Glenn Beck...
It is often said that you have to follow the money, heck, if it is not reported on and the government continues to play the shell game, how can one find the money or the true numbers for that matter? It seems to me that the one thing Obama and his crownies learned in their community organzing would be shell games and organizing has many organizations has they possibly can to push around the truth from the American people.
Organizations, like the labor unions, acorn, appollo project the other green movements and the media have high jack this country. The truth was revelled when Obama was elected President. This country showed its true colors on the world stage, people got exactly what they wanted. They wanted a man to be thier savior, to take care of them and to give them their hearts desire. However it has back fired on them, now they have buyers remorse. The problem would be, there is no refund.
Those of us that truly pray, we pray for our leaders and this country, however, I am reminded when the children of Israel were warned about having a king and what he would do once they got what they wanted.
1 Sam 8
1 And it came about when Samuel was old that he appointed his sons judges over Israel.
2 Now the name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah;
they were judging in Beersheba.
3 His sons, however, did not walk in his ways, but turned aside after dishonest gain and took bribes and perverted justice.
4 Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah;
5 and they said to him, “Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations.”
6 But the thing was displeasing in the sight of Samuel when they said, “Give us a king to judge us.” And Samuel prayed to the L
ORD.
7 The L
ORD said to Samuel, “Listen to the voice of the people in regard to all that they say to you, for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me from being king over them.
8 “Like all the deeds which they have done since the day that I brought them up from Egypt even to this day—in that they have forsaken Me and served other gods—so they are doing to you also.
9 “Now then, listen to their voice; however, you shall solemnly warn them and tell them of the procedure of the king who will reign over them.”
10 So Samuel spoke all the words of the L
ORD to the people who had asked of him a king.
11 He said, “This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you: he will take your sons and place
them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots.
12 “He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and
some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots.
13 “He will also take your daughters for perfumers and cooks and bakers.
14 “He will take the best of your fields and your vineyards and your olive groves and give
them to his servants.
15 “He will take a tenth of your seed and of your vineyards and give to his officers and to his servants.
16 “He will also take your male servants and your female servants and your best young men and your donkeys and use
them for his work.
17 “He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his servants.
18 “Then you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the L
ORD will not answer you in that day.”
19 Nevertheless, the people refused to listen to the voice of Samuel, and they said, “No, but there shall be a king over us,
20 that we also may be like all the nations, that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles.”
21 Now after Samuel had heard all the words of the people, he repeated them in the L
ORD’S hearing.
22 The L
ORD said to Samuel, “Listen to their voice and appoint them a king.” So Samuel said to the men of Israel, “Go every man to his city.”
I want to highlight v 7 God told Samuel they the Children of Israel rejected Him not samuel. How many of us out their attempted to warn the masses, we were rebuked and rejected of what we saw to be the truth? When we gave our warnings, at that time they rejected the warning coming from God and His Holy Word. People which chose to reject the Word of God and the Truth which lies their in, have bought to use something that cannot be changed.
v 18 Then you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, but the LORD will not answer you in that day.”
Is this why the prayers of the saints are not coming to pass? There are those of us who pray daily for this nation, sometime it feels like my words come back, because the heavens have become like that of brass.
Only one thing can save this nation, a national revival and true repentance. We need to get back to the basics when it comes to the Church, the Blood of Jesus needs to be preached again, people need that spoken to them by the Spirit of God. They need the revelation about God and His mercy. Without it, we are doomed has a nation.
